Who: Ophiuchus
Where: Ophi dorms.
When: Day 102, afternoon/eveningish.
What: Chillin' in the dorms

[At some point in the afternoon, you might spy a rather odd-looking fish floating around in midair. Its scales appear to be made out of delicate, two-toned glass that shift colors depending on how you look at it.

If you stare at it long enough, it floats over and stares back.]


(( IC sign-ups for the Mirror game on Saturday! If you can't (or don't want to) thread, you can just assume that Mirror caught your Ophi character at some point and asked them to help out. More OOC info will go up on Saturday as well. ))

Harsh. Isn't it more that I know my place? I'd rather be somewhere I can know firsthand what's going on with the Blanks then waiting underground.

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

[laughs]

Better. Would you like more details?

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

Of course.

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

A minor, non-painful physical change, to be in effect for roughly forty-eight hours.

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

A-and there's boxes too. And maybe some things you could help them with...

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

Help is good. Physical change, huh?... Boxes like my weapons?

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

No, there's boxes with things in them, and you carry them out to places s-so they can be opened.

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

Sounds interesting. Will there be more detail at the game?

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

Naturally. It should be very simple.

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

Hmm... are you sure there's not two of you?

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

[twitches a fin]

It's just me, it's just me!

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

. . .[p-pats the fish]

Okay, it's just you.

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

Just me and her and me...

[curls around his hand a little]

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

You mentioned a missing piece, for this game, and for the others I've seen. What is it a piece of?

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

M-me.

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

... A piece of you?

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

[rotates slowly, until she's completely upside-down]

Mmm-hmm.

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

Missing pieces... what kinds of pieces? You're not missing any fins.

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

[continues to turn. as she does so, cracks slowly appear between the scales, which peel up and back away from the body of the fish.]

Th-this is easier...

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

Aah... that looks like it hurts.

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

They do. You shouldn't touch them, I th-think.

[the scales are terribly sharp-looking. a few of them slide back into place, followed by a few more.]

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

I meant it looks like it hurts you.

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

... mmm. They're s-sharp. They don't stop hurting until the edges are gone.

[continues pulling them back into place, until the fish is relatively whole again]

[breaking_waves.insanejournal.com]

Does getting the pieces back help the edges?

[mirror_mirrors.insanejournal.com]

[tilts]

Something that is whole has no sharp edges.
