as curses go, could be worse

[abnormalizes]

WHO: Evangeline, Korone, and you!
WHAT: Evangeline and Korone swap bodies. Fun times for all!
WHEN: Oct 12-13
WHERE: Birdtile house and elsewhere - see Evangeline and Korone's toplevels
WARNINGS: uhhh mistaken identity smooches might happen idk

[Part of Evangeline's job at the research center is to investigate cursed objects that get brought in! She did such a good job with the jar after all, it makes sense for that to be part of her usual work now. So on Friday, she's given a cursed mirror to investigate.

It's definitely cursed, but Evangeline isn't quite able to figure out what it does, and she goes home thinking she'll come back at it on Monday with a refreshed mind and take another look at it.

On Saturday morning, she wakes up as a pigeon.]

There's Lucy... Macaque met and adopted his kids as teenagers, I don't think he'd know either.

[roundandaround]

Really? ...Wait, I guess that explains why they're all different species.

[rinku did you just not question that]

I guess there's not very many, huh? I wonder why?

[abnormalizes]

-wait, sorry, did you think that Macaque was their biological dad?

[roundandaround]

Korone-chan just said he was her dad! I didn't really think about it!

[abnormalizes]

Rinku, I love you, but how would that even work.

[roundandaround]

Uh... I dunno. Different worlds are different? It's not that weird, right?

[abnormalizes]

This might just be me personally but I think that a monkey siring a pigeon-human and a turtle would be pretty weird.

[roundandaround]

But if people can change species, maybe they could've all been the same species once! ...Though I guess that didn't happen. [Rinku rubs the back of her head.]

[abnormalizes]

If Macaque had ever been anything else, his name wouldn't be Macaque, would it?

[roundandaround]

My boss is named Usagi and she's human. That's an animal. [head tilt]

[abnormalizes]

...shit, you're right. I've got nothing then.

[roundandaround]

You're right anyway, though. [headscratch] I guess I kind of assume things and don't think about them.

[abnormalizes]

Don't worry about it too much. I'm pretty sure Choco would just think that was funny if you told her, anyway.

[roundandaround]

[Rinku giggles a little. She tugs Evangeline around a corner and down the path to the door to Sugar Galaxies.]

Here we are! Look at the menu, it's huge! I told you they have everything!

[abnormalizes]

They really do- wait, is that garlic ice cream?

[roundandaround]

Whoa, really? That's amazing! I dunno if I wanna eat it, though. But the anise kind was kinda good, so maybe?

[Maybe Flamin' Hot Cheetos ice cream lives on somewhere too...]

Oh, what kind do you want? I'll get you whatever!

[abnormalizes]

Hmm... [As long as she doesn't have honey, Choco's body should probably be fine, so.] Maybe watermelon?

[roundandaround]

Sure!

[Rinku orders Evangeline a dish of watermelon and herself the daily special, something called "rainbow mist" that's colourful and covered in cereal marshmallows. She pays for the ice cream, giving the attendant a tip almost as much as the food cost, and gives Evangeline hers before taking her own and sitting at one of the tables.]

Tell me how it is! I really like this place.

[abnormalizes]

[She tries a spoonful.]

It's good! But yours looks delicious too, can I try some?

[roundandaround]

Of course ♪

[Rinku pushes her dish to Evangeline. It's very sweet, especially with the cereal marshmallows, and very soft.]

It kinda makes you go [excited Rinku noises], right?

[abnormalizes]

[nom,]

-You know, it really does!

[roundandaround]

Yeah, yeah! Huh, I wonder if things taste different in someone else's body? Since different people like different things and stuff.
