03; Accidental Voice/Text

[cantfightthisfire]

[At first when she wakes up, everything is normal. Perfectly normal. And then all of a sudden there is a very loud, very high pitched eleven year old boy's voice coming through the journals. If you're in Gryffindor tower, you'll probably see a very freaked out, panicking Jake English, and then.]

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?!

[Seriously. SERIOUSLY WHAT IS GOING ON.

This is a dream isn't it? She's dreaming. She's having a nightmare. This is not happening. HOW THE FUCK IS SHE THIS THING?!

WHAT EVEN THE HELL.

It's a long time before any ink appears, as she attempts to wake herself up by pinching really hard. Multiple times. And yet she's still. This thing.

Finally she finds the journal because it's the only other option she can think of. The handwriting is shaky and weird, as if she isn't used to the hands she has now. Which... she isn't.]

What the fuck is going on?!

Someone fix this! Fix it right now!

[There's a frustrated growl.]</small. If you don't come and get me I'm going to put this knife to good use. You'd look so much more attractive if you resembled the Joker.

[donutsanddestiny]

Coming! I'm coming!

[flamingadventurer]

Good!

[Despite how shitty this is, she takes pride in knowing that she can sound intimidating even with an eleven year old boy's voice.]

I'll just... wait outside the common room.

[He can't help sniggering as he shows up. He wasn't completely sure he believed her, after all.]

action

[flamingadventurer]

[She may have promised not to cut him, but a kick to the shins is the perfect alternative.

So that's exactly what she does.]

action

[donutsanddestiny]

Ow! You know, you have issues showing gratitude.

action

[flamingadventurer]

And you have issues with not being a douchebag! You try suddenly being a midget and having a penis! It's fucking weird!

action

[donutsanddestiny]

I already-- Nevermind.

Come on, then. We'll need to go down to the dungeons. We'll be playing with potions, I think.

action

[flamingadventurer]

Fine.

[And without another word, she starts walking. It's clear she has a hard time because tinier legs and not used to this body.]

action

[donutsanddestiny]

So, you said you just woke up like this?

action

[flamingadventurer]

Yes!

[Her tone is irritable, but she doesn't say what she really wants, which is 'If you could read you'd know the answer.']

I don't know how the hell it happened. I was fine when I went to bed.

action

[donutsanddestiny]

This is kind of fascinating, honestly... It just shouldn't make sense.

action

[flamingadventurer]

It's not fascinating, it's disgusting and horrible and if I don't go back to normal I'm gonna jump off the fucking astronomy tower!

action

[donutsanddestiny]

Don't tempt me, Prescott.

action

[flamingadventurer]

[At once, she stops.

Despite how angry and upset she is, that actually got to her. Maybe it was because she was so angry and upset that she let it get to her.]

Right. That'd make it better for everyone, wouldn't it?

action

[donutsanddestiny]

...What?

action

[flamingadventurer]

If I jumped off the astronomy tower. You just said it. It'd make life better for everyone here if I did, wouldn't it?

[She's not looking at him. She's staring intently on the floor, fists clenched. Why she's getting so upset over this, she doesn't know. Maybe it's because of the nightmares she had last night. The ones that pop up every now and then. The ones that remind her just how much everything sucks.]

action

[donutsanddestiny]

Hey... No.

Pres-- Marina. [He walks over so he's standing in front of her and stops.] You're... Frustrating as hell, yes. But that doesn't mean--

[It's hard for him. He kind of does hate her, but he kind of doesn't hate her, too. She's respectable, in a way. And interesting. Besides, he's had that sort of feeling, but more to the extent of 'running away and never contacting anyone from his current life' than to the extreme of 'jumping off the astronomy tower'.]

That doesn't mean you should talk like that. [He hesitates, but eventually his hands make their way onto her shoulders.] Think of how boringly safe my life would be without you.
