( open ) sit down a while and watch the flowers blooming

Who: Frisk and your character!
What: A couple event prompts and one other.
When: During May.
Where: Various places.



a) stay DETERMINED

( Time is strange, especially from the point-of-view of a child. While time seems to have passed rather quickly for Frisk, it also feels as though the days have dragged on since they ended up participating in the game that sent him into the jungle. That had been difficult for them – perhaps one of the more difficult trials that they had gone through.

Since then, they haven't felt like quite themselves. It's been difficult to completely focus on those around them like before, and they're more preoccupied with what they can do. They haven't tested the extent of their powers, and so – that's what they're doing now. It could be something completely minor that Frisk is doing at the moment – having a conversation with someone else, playing a game, purchasing food with the small amount of money that they have. It's then that they use the abilities that they have from home, LOADing in order to go through what they did before. It may feel like a slight shift in the air, a vague tug. No matter what someone feels in response to Frisk going back, their expression remains neutral.

Your character will either feel a feeling of deja vu, or they themselves will realize that time has reversed itself. Frisk will resume what they're doing from before – whether it's holding now unspent money, or going back to a game that they had lost. )


b. self-evaluation

( The changes come quickly, though it's still painful all the same. Long, curved horns grow where they shouldn't be – human teeth are replaced sharp fangs, dirty-brown fur grows where skin once was. There's no hiding the claws that suddenly grow, either – and by the time they're done changing, they no longer resemble a human. Instead, they look far closer to the goat-like monsters that they had met in the Underground at home. Only... there's no denying that they don't quite look as welcoming as those monsters.

They're avoiding looking in the mirrors right now. They know that they're still themselves – there's no denying that, but there's also no denying how scary they actually look right now, too. While it doesn't take them long to gather courage to make their way outside, at one point they can't help but stop. They catch sight of their reflection in one of the nearby shops and quickly look away and make a sharp turn –

Only to run into someone close by. They stumble back for a moment before looking upwards – offering a quiet apology. )


Uhm – sorry.

c. imposters

( The vine appears unexpectedly – appearing in Frisk and Chara's room and tangling itself around Frisk's leg before they have any chance to respond. It latches itself onto them then, and before they realize it, a golden-colored flower begins to blossom on near their right eye. A hand goes to the sudden new, yet vague weight freezing when they feel petals and stem where it shouldn't be.

It feels like a knee-jerk reaction at this point in time, Frisk deciding to try to go back in time and LOAD to the time before the plant had latched onto them – however, it backfires, another flower next to the other. It's something that they try multiple times – attempting to hopefully try to RESET - going even further back in time - instead of LOADing. Though, by the time they give up trying to reverse what's happened, there's a significant number of flowers grown to the point where their vision is obscured.

They'll make their way out of their home after realizing that this is out of their own hands, wanting to find some sort of other solution to their problem. However, their movements are sluggish and careful – hand moving to carefully hold where the flowers had latched themselves. If someone tries to greet them, they'll stop in their steps and slowly look upwards. )

[Kokichi's been minding his own business for the most part, and he'd luckily managed to avoid much of a transformation - which was lucky, since he had little to no hope of making it on his own if he got stuck...self-acceptance? What's that? Eep.

He's heading out of one of the shops, grocery shopping as per usual, which was always a mixture of genuinely buying things and using his blood power to his advantage to get free things, too...when someone runs into him.

He looks, and--whoa okay that's a little goat person. Kinda weird. But the voice throws him off even more.]


...Frisk-chan? Issat you?

[personal profile] violetlies 2022-05-23 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Kokichi faintly catches onto that fear - and even if he's not used to seeing monsters, his expression immediately softens. He shifts his bag into one arm, a small smile crossing his face.]

Then I'm glad to see you. I almost didn't recognize you, but I'd know your voice anywhere.

Are you doing anything right now? I just finished grocery shopping, and I got enough cookies that there's enough for me to share. If you'd be interested?

[It might give him a chance to see what happened to Frisk to make them look like this, too.]

[Scorpia frowns as she looks down at the child covered in flowers. Something about this looks very concerning, especially as they look very familiar to her.]

...Hi. [She softly repeats herself before trying to confirm who she's talking to.] Frisk, is that you? ...What's going on?

[In another context, she might have considered the flowers to be an interesting fashion statement! But from the way Frisk is moving around and their vision seems impaired, it feels like something is off about all this.]
cuddlery: (confused with tea)

[personal profile] cuddlery 2022-05-24 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Her frown grows as she surveys Frisk.]

...Oh. Yeah, it... I'm sorry, it doesn't look very... very fixed over here. [She steps closer and kneels down to be by their level.]

It must be really bad if there's so many of them! But have no fear, Scorpia is here to help!

Oh - hey, you're fine.

[Michael was just trying to go into that shop, actually? Which means that he was definitely already facing in the right direction to see how the kid reacted to their own reflection in the window, specifically. He gets that. There's a reason he's wearing a hooded cloak and sunglasses right now - although hey, he'd kill to just turn into a goat or whatever instead!]

Shitty month, huh? [This is how we speak to kids?]
eudaimonikos: (conditionals)

[personal profile] eudaimonikos 2022-05-23 01:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it's a little gross.

[He learned a long time ago that it's easier if you say the thing about yourself before anybody else can. Not that his whole Situation is visible now anyway.]

Yours isn't too bad. I've found that people are very fond of fur. [Less so goats, he thinks? A lot of people expect him to be goat-y just because he's a demon. But hey, look on the bright side!]

[The stutter of time going back and back and back again doesn't escape Chara's notice, especially as they feel Frisk's soul swell in DETERMINATION and they know that it's not them empowering it. They try to reach their partner several times as time flickers back and forth, to find what's going wrong, to help in some way.

And when it finally stops, only then do they reach them, and take sight at what's happened.]


Frisk! [They go to Frisk's side and place a hand against their arm.] What's... what is this?

[...Their first thought, of course, is the flowers that cover their garden, that overrun wherever Chara stays. Their first thought is that perhaps they inflicted it on their partner as well.

* Did you do this?]
the_obedient_servant: (* But I'm sorry. My friend.)

[personal profile] the_obedient_servant 2022-05-24 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[That description makes them think of Flowey, of that impetuous little weed who dedicated so much time to making their partner miserable, all as part of his twisted little game. But, this isn't his power. This is something unique to Trench.]

...Have you tried plucking them out? [They shake their head.] Lay down. I'll see if I can find a remedy.

[Vileblood, historically, has had a healing effect. Do they need to retrieve samples from locals this month? Maybe Winters would have some.]

[ If Chizuru hadn't seen what they could do before, she would definitely just have assumed that what just happened was nothing more than deja vu on her part. Chizuru would always lay the blame at her own feet before doing so to anyone else, after all.

But she knows. She saw it back in the jungle, where the situation had been much more pressing. A situation they were in suddenly fading away, only to seemingly have gone back in time. It was their power, Frisk had explained.

She didn't quite imagine it happening like this. After all, there doesn't seem to be any danger around.. or was there danger, and Chizuru just forgot? It just looks like Frisk is over there playing a game.. again, like a few moments ago.

.. like right now?

Chizuru's head feels a little fuzzy again, just like the last time they had used the power, and she can't help but approach the child. ]


Um.. is everything okay..?

[ She assumes the other wouldn't just use the power without a good reason, after all. And the fact that there might be a good reason around to do so is pretty worrying, hence why Chizuru frowns in concern as she looks at them. ]
tealeafs: (as you bloom again)

[personal profile] tealeafs 2022-05-24 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
.. oh.

[ It's not quite the answer she expected, and in turn Chizuru isn't sure how to feel about it. She's relieved that there's no bigger danger around, especially since she doesn't want Frisk to be in danger in any way, but on the other hand.. It's a little complicated, trying to figure out how she feels about the idea of using a power like that for something so small...

It makes her frown, but not in any angry way. More in a way that makes it seem like Chizuru is thinking really hard over here. ]


Is that only affecting you..?

[ She glances around at the other people who might be around here. This is her main worry. If the power is not impacting Frisk in any negative way, then it should be fine for them to use it. But when it comes to other people.. ]

I mean, um.. Isn't it making other people repeat things again too..?

[The person they run into definitely makes a soft sort of screech at the bump, though...erm, person is a bit of a stretch. There's probably a person inside that large mass of fur and feathers. Ochako, much like Frisk, was changed into a monstrous looking beast when she woke up one day, and because of that, well...it's been hard to cook with her hands being talons/claws. The fine-motor skills just don't exist, and thus she's been taking to eat takeout for quite a while. In fact, that's half what she was on her way to get! Before she was bumped into, that is.

Imagine, seeing an eight-foot, hulking mass squawk and take a step back when she sees the rather scary-looking goat...creature...thing. That is, until it so softly and politely apologizes. Standing up on her hind legs, Ochako shakes her head and offers a large mitt out toward what she...assumed might actually be a kid. It sounds sort of like a kid, but she's not sure.]


Oh no, it's quite alright!! I know I'm, eheh...a-a bit big right now... Are you okay? You're not hurt at all, ne?
floatsaway: (06)

[personal profile] floatsaway 2022-05-24 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh! Yes, she recognizes the voice right away, and a sense of relief makes its way easily in her features. Honestly, even if some people look more monstrous, she sort of relates it to a more heteromorphic quirk - like Tokoyami with his bird head, or Shoji with his extra appendages. Thinking that way...everyone becomes way less scary. People back home are all sorts of shapes and sizes, animal-like or more humanesque, or even something completely different. They're still people all the same!!

So, when she lets herself fall to all fours, she nods her head with, uh...as best a smile she can manage with a beak.]


Frisk-kun!! Yeah, it's me! Ehehe...I woke up like this, and I bet you did too, huh? Yours is cool! [Kinda creepy, but that's a bit rude. She was just surprised.] I bet I look super scary, huh? Ah...heh. a lot of people have been running away from me...

[personal profile] syncopathic 2022-06-07 01:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[Normally it takes a lot to startle Dito, but he's currently in the process of dealing with his own change. It's admittedly similar to Frisk's transformation-- with curved horns and curly fur and black, elongated claws-- but Dito more closely resembles a satyr of Greek mythology than any sort of non-determinate goat monster.

As Frisk bumps into him he utters a gasp and spins around, spear already out and primed for skewering, but one glance at the creature in front of him causes him to relax his stance somewhat. It's not a slavering beast-- he can tell by its expression that it's still in control of its own mind, whatever it was before.

Dito's eyes narrow in chagrined annoyance.]


Might wanna watch where you're going. The next person you crash into might be way twitchier than I am.
syncopathic: (and I never felt cheated)

[personal profile] syncopathic 2022-06-20 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
What? No. I just... you caught me off guard, that's all.

[His tone is distracted. What kind of kid stares down the length of a spear with such genuine aplomb? Granted, the only other child he remembers encountering was a dragon, but still. Seems like your average person would at least take a step back when having a very large and dangerous looking weapon shoved in their face.]

In any case, looks like you've got some accoutrements of your own there, kid. Guess you were affected by whatever the heck's going around these days, huh?
