Accidental Action/Post

[marshall_lee]

[Marshall wasn't sleeping well. In light of Marcelines newfound happening of being human again he was being plagued by weird dreams. He woke up suddenly with a weird feeling in the pit of his stomach. He quickly got up, knocked his journal to the floor and made a run for the bathroom. The journal picks up on a sound that sounds like someone retching from further away.
After expelling whatever remained of the last potion he took Marshall sat on the floor in shock his heart beating fast. Wait? Heartbeat?. He got up and looked in the mirror and gasped.
He looked alive.
He blinked as he suddenly realized that he was suddenly needing to breathe.]

"What the hell?"

[He hurries back to his bed and discovers the journal lying open on the floor. He picks it up and makes a hasty scribble]

Marcie, whenever you wake up I gotta talk to you. I think...whatever is happening to you...uh..it's happening to me too.

Wait, what? You mean...you too?

[marshall_lee]

Yeah..
I mean, I just threw up...and my heart is beating and I kinda need to breathe.
It's..I'm just.. I'm kinda freaking out here.

[nomorals]

Yeah, breathing is kind of a thing you need to do.
But...wow.
Maybe we should take you to Ms. Maryam if you're freaking out. She might have something you can breathe easier through.

I think I'll be okay. I just..haven't done any of this in a really long time.
...we probably should let her know what's going on since it might affect her too though.

[nomorals]

Do you need me?
We should. I mean first me, then you...who's to say whatever this is won't affect her next?

[marshall_lee]

..would you?
All right..I'll be down in a second.
[He shuts the journal and is practically racing down the stairs and when he arrives he stops and takes a deep breath.]
So weird...

[When he gets to the common room, she's just now exiting the girl's side with a stretch and a yawn. She hadn't slept well, too worried about being human to actually sleep before exhaustion had taken over. When she sees him, she stops, waiting to feel the small, familiar pulse of compulsion and when it doesn't come, she steps closer.]

Wow. You weren't kidding.

[He's holding his arms out and looking at himself.]

Definately not kidding. Hmm..I don't remember being this...pinkish. [He reaches up and pats his face.]
Do I..look different?

[nomorals]

[She can't help but laugh as she closes a bit more distance between them, wrapping her arms around herself. She's still a little weirded out by her own humanity.]

Of all the things to be worried about, you're worried about your looks. Narcissism doesn't suit you, Marshall.

[marshall_lee]

[He laughs a little and drops his hands to his sides.]

Hey, don't make fun of me. It's my moneymaker.

[Suddenly he stops as another worry comes over him.]

Oh man, I just thought of something..what if I'm not as good at music anymore?
[In his worried state a flush comes over him.]
I feel warm..I think I need to actually sit down..there's too much going through my head all at once here.

[nomorals]

[She just rolls her eyes and walks over to one of the couches, flopping down into a corner before patting the other side, indicating for him to sit down.]

Then sit down. We don't want you fainting like a princess, do we?

[marshall_lee]

[He sits down and puts his face in his hands.]

You must think I'm being pretty dumb right now huh? I just..well, like you said I never expected this to ever happen.
It feels like, like I'm waking up from a really long dream or something.

[nomorals]

[She crosses her legs and tucks them underneath, placing her hands in her lap. If she'd felt confused and scared, she could only imagine he did too. He was almost 200 years old. To suddenly be human again...she shook her head at his question.]

I don't think you're being dumb. You're just out of your comfort zone right now. I mean you're used to being a vampire. It was easy for me because I've only been one for two months.

[marshall_lee]

I suppose that's true. [He pauses for a moment considering the situation and a look of determination begins to form.]
You know what? Screw it. I'm not going to overthink this. If it sticks around, then I'm just going to have to deal with it. But for now...I'm just going to live since I can. [A tiny smile creeps up on his face.]
At least now I can finally try pizza and chocolate.

[nomorals]

That's the spirit. [She laughs a little at her own joke.] We should check out the kitchens before breakfast to see if the house elves can cook something up.

[marshall_lee]

...speaking of spirits..Eriq's a ghost now apparently. He said that he wished he were dead and suddenly found himself a ghost. There's something weird going on here so I'm really hoping it's not permanant for some of us at least.
[He gets up and stretchs and makes a little "ah!" sound.]

I agree. I think I feel hungry..my stomach is moving around anyways. And I kinda threw up the rest of the potion I'd taken earlier. That's something I hope never happens again. Throwing up is pretty gross.
