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.]

That means you should at least try and reign yourself in... that part honestly requires more focus than anything.

[abnormalizes]

I am a deeply weird person. How fucked am I.

[dereban]

Extremely.

[abnormalizes]

Faaantastic. Maybe I'll just lock myself in my room until this wears off.

[dereban]

Honestly not an awful plan. You might want to invite a friend, though. Play some games or something.

[abnormalizes]

It'd get pretty boring otherwise, huh. Maybe Rinku? If anyone's capable of taking the weirdness in stride...

[dereban]

That might be a good option.

[abnormalizes]

Yeah. ...This is mean, but I also want to make sure she's not telling Choco how cool this is or something.

[dereban]

It really isn't cool at all.

[Answered flatly as someone who has obviously Been Through This Shit Before™️.]

[abnormalizes]

It's really not, it kind of sucks actually.

You too, huh?

[dereban]

I've dealt with this specific scenario back home, yes.

[abnormalizes]

My condolences. How did you deal with the... uh...

The shower thing?

[dereban]

Ah, that... it was infrequent, but sometimes I'd skip it. But if it went on for too long, I'd have to keep my eyes shut.

[abnormalizes]

Makes sense. I don't want to look, but I also don't want people to be like, 'wow, Choco Korone has bad hygiene'.

[dereban]

No kidding... I promise you, though, that it's worse when you're dealing with someone of the opposite sex.

[abnormalizes]

Makes sense. I can probably wash everywhere with my eyes closed - or I would be able to, except for the wings and tail. That's also difficult.

[dereban]

Wings would be difficult, but tail you could probably wash a little easier even after a proper shower, I think... probably could do that clothed.

[...]

Not that I have experience with that sort of stuff, I'm just guessing.

[abnormalizes]

I've washed other people's wings and tails, but the angle's a lot different when it's yourself. But anything I can do clothed is a great start.

[dereban]

If I had to guess, washing wings would probably be similar to washing your own back...? You'd probably need a scrubber for it. You know the one with the handle.
