002 ✥ VIDEO

[pandoricas]

[Yes hello turtleland. It's been a while, hasn't it? Rory certainly thinks so. Time just seems to fly somehow when you're trapped on some apparent 'In Between' thing that happens to be on the back of a giant turtle. And then there's also the fact that he has an egg to care for...

...but that's not the point of this post. This post is out because, as one may be able to see from the moment the video starts, is the fact that while the post is most certainly from Rory's console, the person making is video is not Rory at all. In fact, the person who's in your screen now is not even male.

He's somehow turned into a bigger than average red woman.]

Um.

[Trying not to fidget here... yeah, this is kind of awkward. Which is really an understatement in and of itself.]

I really hate to join in the other posts going around now, but-- [Gestures to himself. Or herself. Either way.] --could anybody tell me what to do? Is whatever happened to me reversible, or am I going to be stuck like this for as long as I'm here?

[Pause, as Rory takes a moment to not freak out.]

Really hope I'm not in an alien body-- Just, could somebody help me here? I really don't want to make this any weirder than it already is. [Attempting a smile here. It's not really working.] Thanks.


[OOC: Bodyswapped with Betty Ross/She-Hulk for the misspell event! Also tags will be slow, since I'm packing up and taking a 17 hour flight back home over the weekend. OTL]

I was born in California.

[ She nods toward the video, still somewhat fascinated by looking at herself. ]

Now I'm just a Hulk too. That's why you're big and red. Be careful while you're like that. That form's a lot stronger than a normal person.

[pandoricas]

[Wait Hulk what what is going on whaaaaat.]

Is this supposed to be normal for you?

[Is this some weird alternate Earth or world or something else because he's sure humans are not supposed to change like this.]

[undoubtable]

[ She shrugs. ]

For me, yes. For most people, no. Radiation made me into what you are now. Most people of my world aren't anything like that.

[pandoricas]

[...if its radiation how the heck are you still alive.

You people are weird.]

Right. So being a large red woman is normal for you.

[Just... making that clear.]

I didn't catch you the first time. How do I change back again?

[undoubtable]

[ It hadn't always been normal. It just is now. ]

Calm down. It's harder than it sounds, I know, but that's the only way to be human again. Do you know how to meditate?

[pandoricas]

[Harder? Try impossible. How do you stay calm when you suddenly find yourself changed into a giant red woman??]

Um. No? [Totally making a 'pls help me' face here.] Does that actually work?

[undoubtable]

It does for some people. Not for others.

[ For instance, it doesn't really work for Betty. She's been trying, but she meets with limited success. ]

What usually calms you down?

[pandoricas]

Uh.

[Pause goes here.]

...tea?

[Things not going wrong for once??]

[undoubtable]

Do you have some?

[ Tea has never worked for her, but maybe it'll be the trigger this guy needs. ]

If you don't, I can bring some to you.

[pandoricas]

[A small nod.]

I have some, yeah.

[He's been kind of rationing it since he hasn't gotten a job yet... he really needs to change that soon.]

[undoubtable]

Okay. Brew it.

[ Wait, back up. ]

Carefully brew it. You're a lot stronger than you think, I can't stress that enough. But make the tea. Try it. See if it calms your mind enough that you change back.

[pandoricas]

[Carefully brew it? That sounds... uh, specific.]

Right. I'll... try that.

[Still so unsure.]

[undoubtable]

If you run into trouble, call me. I'll be here. Trying to keep this body safe.

[pandoricas]

Oh--thanks. I appreciate it.

[It's so nice when people are so cooperative. u_u]
