FoE PNP Destiny Group Session 17

[17:26] <GM||WavemasterRyx> *** PnP Destiny Group: Session 17 Start ***
[17:26] <GM||WavemasterRyx> When we last left our heroes, they faced off the certain doom of a suspicious alien space ship, only to wind up falling-down drunk at the good will? of their alien host. One long make-out and shuttle ride later, the team returns to Destiny. McGrumpy Swept offered to take Hopes back to her room, leaving his sister to deal with Commander Daylight.
[17:26] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The commander looks between all of you as Swept trots off carrying the medic, "So um... what the heck? I heard a report of being attacked or something?"
[17:28] <Swoop> "We weren't attacked, sir. Attempt at humor that failed. What /they/ did was drink an unknown fluid and become useless."
[17:29] <Chameleon> "I wuzn't *Hiccup* Useless! There wasn't anything to be useless 'gainst!"
[17:29] <Swoop> "Certainly didn't help in negotiations, did you..."
[17:29] <Chameleon> "Like you did?"
[17:30] * Chameleon pouts
[17:30] * Chameleon hiccups and giggles
[17:30] <Swoop> "ANYWAY, I'll have my written report within the hour, sir."
[17:31] * Astera leans against Cameleon. A stupid grin on her face, staring blankly at nothing.
[17:31] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Daylight groans a little and scrubs her face with a hoof, "Alright... Well... at least you weren't in any danger... Why don't you go escourt your team back to their quarters and pick up some black coffee for them..."
[17:32] * Chameleon nuzzlenuzzles Astera
[17:32] * Swoop salutes and starts to corral the drunken ponies, wings spread wide. "Ok, you heard him. Back to your bunks."
[17:32] <Swoop> her*
[17:32] <Chameleon> "Awwwwwwww."
[17:33] <Astera> "Can't we stay up just a little longer, pleeaaase..?"
[17:33] <Swoop> "Come on, you. Ya do have to go home cause you can't stay here."
[17:34] <Chameleon> "Yer not a bartender! You don't get to choose closing time!"
[17:35] * Clara frowns. "It was our job to make friends! We just did our job! Don't you like frieeends?" She gives Swoop the saddest face she can muster. With big, round, teary eyes and everything!
[17:35] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Daylight is trying not to giggle.
[17:35] <Swoop> "Daylight chose it, I'm just enforcing it."
[17:35] <Swoop> "I like friends who don't try to get me drunk on the first date. Get movin."
[17:36] <Chameleon> "You Need'a get laid swoopy."
[17:36] * Astera slumps and starts to move back to her quarters. Well, she picks a path at random.. This was the way to her room ,right?
[17:36] <Swoop> "Beside the point."
[17:36] * Clara giggles at Cammy. "You shouldn't say thaaat. That's... that's rude!"
[17:37] <Chameleon> "S'true!"
[17:37] * Swoop pokes Astera in the flank. "This way."
[17:37] * Astera looks at her flank. Blinks. "Oh.."
[17:39] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The commander smirks a little at that. Trying harder not to laugh, she brings her hoof up in an easy salute, "Well, I'll look forward to your report." She gives one more nod as she passes Astera and trots off down the hallway.
[17:39] * Swoop totally heard that smirk.
[17:41] * Astera nudges Swoop with her muzzle, leaning against her and putting a wing over her back. "I think you gonna have to show me the way.."
[17:42] * Swoop knows where this is going. "You HAD to be drunk when you hit on me eh? Bang goes my ego..."
[17:42] * Clara giggles. "You... you silly! You should just... lookit the map!" She shows Astera her Pipbuck map. It's upside-down.
[17:44] * Astera lifts her hoof, looking at her own map. "Ohhhh... Right, that thingy.." Slumping off Swoop she starts making her way towards he rroom.
[17:45] * Swoop sighs. "I'll go get you all some coffee..."
[17:48] * Chameleon 'd already wandered off
[17:48] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The ship's cooridors are still dimmed for the night cycle, the Mess Hall currently emtpy aside from the apple-green unicorn minding the desk.
[17:49] * Swoop walks right up to her. "Coffee. A whole pot."
[17:50] <GM||WavemasterRyx> She smiles and nods, ducking back into the kitchen and returning after a minute with a large pot of coffee and some mugs on a tray, "Here you go. Long mission, huh?"
[17:51] * Swoop takes the tray, mumbling, "You have no idea..."
[17:57] * Chameleon cocooned herself in her room again for sleepies
[18:00] * Clara hasn't gone off to her room. She's still with Swoop. "Hey. Heeey. Hey. How come you're so serious all the time? You should... you should relax! And have fun! It's not... not healthy to be so serious."
[18:01] * Swoop balances the tray on her back with her wings. "I'm not serious all the time, and you know it. I just don't like getting forced into chapperone duty."
[18:03] * Astera eventually finds her room. She faceplants into bed and stays like that.
[18:03] * Clara frowns. "We should... we should go to my office... and talk about it! You sound like you need... need to get something off your um... your..." She hesitates a moment. "You sound like you need to talk!"
[18:04] * Swoop sighs. "I'm fine."
[18:06] * Clara drapes a wing over Swoop's back. Or at least she thought she did. It was actually Swoop's head. "It's... It's okay! I am a trained... a trained professional! I will make you feel... feel loads better!"
[18:07] * Swoop shakes her head, letting the wing fall back to her shoulder. "Maybe when you're less inebriated."
[18:09] * Clara shakes her head. "I am fine! I am perfectly capable... of helping!"
[18:13] * Clara hmmmmms. She digs around in her pack for her target... a bottle of wine! She pokes Swoop in the nose with it. "For you as a sign of... continued friendship!" It's a little hard to make out, on account of having the top of the bottle in her mouth.
[18:19] * Swoop looks at the wine bottle with a blank expression, then chuckles. "Alright. I accept."
[18:21] * Clara smiles wide and presses the bottle against Swoops nose again, trying to give it to her.
[18:22] * Swoop takes it in her mouth and (somehow) gets it into her bag. "Come on, let's get the girls their coffee."
[18:23] * Clara nodnodnods happily.
[18:23] * Swoop continues on. "There's one for you too, you know."
[18:25] * Clara looks at Swoop and tilts her head. "Ohhh, there is? I looove coffee! How did you knooow?"
[18:25] * Swoop just smiles. "Lucky guess."
[18:34] <GM||WavemasterRyx> While making the rounds to see to the rest of her team, the ship shudders, jumping back into FTL. She eventually sees Clara back to her room, making the short trip next door and flopping into her own bed. The night is long, and though your dreams are not the same, they share two aspects. A ring of mossy pony heads bouncing a wide circle around you and chanting "friend", and a softly glowing red flower in the distance.
[18:35] <GM||WavemasterRyx> When each of you eventually awaken, those of you who had been drunk are surprised to not have a hangover, but that ends quickly when you realize that certain things aren't right.
[18:37] * Astera rolls over?
[18:37] * Swoop wakes and stretches her wings, as usual.
[18:39] * Clara is being a sleepy little changeling, stretched out on her comfy bed as she starts to stir
[18:41] <GM||WavemasterRyx> In attempting to roll over, Astera finds that the sheets are somewhat damp, clinging to her coat. Swoop notices that her upper lip is itching a bit, her stretching illiciting some odd feelings in her chest.
[18:42] * Swoop raises an eyebrow... That cannot be good...
[18:42] * Swoop looks back at her wing to determine the snag.
[18:43] * Astera groans and rubs her eyes. Then sitting up quickly. Patting at the damp bed for a bit before flopping out of it.
[18:43] * Chameleon wiggles in her cocoon
[18:46] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Something to Clara just feels off, you're not sure if it's just because you're half asleep still or not. Looking back at her wing, Swoop doesn't see her dark, navy coat, but rather a very familiar teal wing.
[18:46] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Cammy's cocoon seems much more spacious than normal as she wiggles around.
[18:48] * Chameleon mrr's and opens her eyes letting out a massive yawn
[18:48] * Swoop blinks. Twice. Then... "WHAT THE FU-"
[18:49] <GM||WavemasterRyx> As she flops out of bed, Astera's hoof slides across the floor instead of holding her, nearly making her face-plant to the deck, though she manages to catch herself just in time.
[18:49] * Clara sits up nice and slowly, blinking the sleep from her eyes.
[18:51] * Swoop sprints over to the wall mirror (she assumes the room has) and looks herself over frantically.
[18:52] * Astera blinks. "What the... " She sits down and looks at her hooves, something felt off.
[18:53] * Chameleon stretches out languorously
[18:55] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Stretching out, Chameleon finds her cocoon to be much more spaceous than she last remembers. Looking into the mirror, Swoop finds herself staring at Swept, fantastically groomed moustache and all.
[18:55] * Swoop has an eye twitch.
[18:55] * Chameleon sits up "Did I shrink again? Wait did I shrink before or was that a dream?"
[18:57] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Sitting down with a squish, Astera could almost swear her hooves were dripping as she looks at them. While concentrating on them, she can almost smell the slightest hint of dairy.
[18:58] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Chameleon finds her voice to be much higher and squeaker than she last remembered too.
[18:58] <Astera> "..."
[18:59] * Astera rushes to her bedroom mirror.
[19:01] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Rushing to the mirror, it completely slipped Astera's mind what happened when she got out of bed. Trying to stop in front of it, she instead finds herself sliding uncontrollably, slamming into the mirror with a soft, splattery thud and falling back to the deck.
[19:01] * Swoop gallops to the door to lock it, then throws herself under her covers, chanting over and over "It's a dream it's a dream it's a dream it's a dream..."
[19:01] * Clara gets up out of bed, to go check on her little bug.
[19:01] * Chameleon wiggles "Is I a mouse this time?"
[19:02] * Chameleon checks her butt for a mouse tail
[19:02] * Astera groans. "Ughh..." She rolls over onto her back and looks up at the mirror.
[19:05] <GM||WavemasterRyx> There's no mouse tail, but upon giving her body a more awakened examination, Chameleon finds that her limbs and body have shrunk to the proper proportions for being a little filly changeling.
[19:06] * Chameleon blinks "I'm little me!" She giggles a little and squees, wiggling
[19:07] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Looking into the mirror, Astera sees a smear across its surface where she impacted.  Beyond that, her body looks a little yellower than it's ever been, and in places looking like it's almost melting.
[19:10] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Trotting over to check on her larva, Clara notices that her light pink mane keeps swaying in front of her face, a small streak of blue running down the middle of it. As she looks over the larva's cocoon, she also notices for the first time that her nose is much larger than she remembers it being in this form, it's also sort of a pale orange.
[19:10] * Astera just stares for a moment. "Wh-What the hell?!"
[19:11] * Chameleon hops out of her cocoon to go find a mirror
[19:13] * Clara blinks. That's odd... why is she the wrong colors? She first makes sure that her bug is okay before she goes to look at herself in the mirror.
[19:16] * Astera rolls over again. Okay, this can't be good. Something must have happened. How the hell does she fix this... Oh, right! She taps her pipbuck a few times, tapping into the medical channel. "Ah, this is Countess Astera, seaking medical assistance in her quarters. Please respond." She slumps down her hoof. Glancing around abit before noticing the melting spots of her body.
[19:17] * Astera cringes and pokes one with a hoof.
[19:18] <GM||WavemasterRyx> In her mirror, Cammy sees in full what she'd already observed, her body is currently that of an dorable little changeling filly. In Clara's mirror, she sees... something that is definitely not one of her normal transformations. Her muzzle is boxy and gradiant orange leading into her body's blue coat, she has a straight pink mane and a poofy blue tail, topped off by shimmering blue butterfly wings.
[19:19] * Chameleon giggles and wiggles in front of the mirror "I'm adowable!...adow...adow...fuck."
[19:22] * Clara sort of stares for a moment. She's all sorts of confused. She has... no idea how this could have happened. She tries to transform back into her... normal pegasus form.
[19:23] * Chameleon skips out of her room. She's hungry.
[19:24] <GM||WavemasterRyx> A mare's voice calls back over the pipbuck, "Yes, Countess, I'll be right there." When you poke the melty spot, it squishes gently under your hoof.
[19:26] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Nothing happens when Clara attempts to transform back. She can feel the transformation magic wash over her body, but she looks just the same afterwards.
[19:26] * Astera whimpers as it squishes down, okay that felt weird. "Thank you." She tries her best not to lick her lips and focuses on standing up without falling over instead.
[19:30] * Clara keeps staring, suddenly very worried. "Oh no..."
[19:32] * Chameleon trots into the mess hall and climbs up onto a bench, her head barely poking up above the table
[19:33] ->> ME, :Unknown command
[19:33] * Clara , in desperation, hides herself under her blankets. She probably won't come out for the rest of the day.
[19:35] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The apple-green mare smiles very wide as she watches Chameleon trot into the Mess. She slides out from behind the counter and trots up to her table, "Well hello there adorable! I didn't know we had any little changelings on board~"
[19:35] <Chameleon> "We has me!"
[19:37] <GM||WavemasterRyx> She giggles, smiling even wider, "Oh you're so precious! Would you like something to eat, you darling little filly?"
[19:38] <GM||WavemasterRyx> It takes a few minutes, but there's a soft knock on Astera's door, the mare's voice calling, "Hello, Countess?"
[19:39] * Astera slides around to face the door. "Ah. Come in."
[19:39] <Chameleon> "Uuuuuuum. Pancakes!"
[19:40] * Chameleon throwa her forelegs up in the air as she says 'pancakes'
[19:40] <Chameleon> throws*
[19:42] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Apple Sweet giggles even louder, reaching down to stroke Chameleon's mane gently, "Oh Celestia help me, I'm gonna die from cuteness~ I'll see what I can do for you sweetie." She giggles all the way back to the counter, sliding behind it and back into the kitchen.
[19:43] * Chameleon wiggles at the mane stroking "Kay!"
[19:44] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The light brown earth pony from medical carefully opens the door to Astera's room, trotting slowly inside and looking the Countess over, "Are you okay, Countess Astera?"
[19:46] * Astera pokes a hoof at one of the melting places. "I am melting, what do you think!"
[19:51] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The medical pony's eyes widen as she looks Astera over. She stumbles slightly on the next step, but finishes by galoping to your side, sliding the Medical kit off her back, "Not good not good! H-hold on!" She hastily throws the pack open and pulls out a scanning wand, running it over your body.
[19:53] * Astera tries to be as still as possible. "It was like this when I woke up!  I can't even walk around because im slipping all over the place!" Glancing at the doctor. "Please tell me there is a way to fix this.."
[19:55] <GM||WavemasterRyx> She sets the wand down, looking at the readout on the machine built into the case, "Okay... okay... respiration and pulse are elevated, but not abnormally...  Do you hurt anywhere? I'm not picking up any magical radiation or anything unusual..."
[19:57] <GM||WavemasterRyx> After another minute Apple Sweet trots back up to Chameleon, carrying a plate stacked tall with pancakes, which she sets down in front of the foal, "Here you go sweetie, I hope you enjoy them." She sets down a glass of orange juice too before stepping back to watch, the huge smile still plastered over her face.
[19:58] * Chameleon bounces and giggles, standing up so she can reach the pancakes and noms
[19:58] * Astera looks off left and right. "Well, yes. Ah. Just panicking slightly here you know. Its not everyday that you wake up melting... No.. No it dosnt hurt at all, just, feels weird, squishy."
[20:04] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The medic pony, nods a little, "Okay, just try to take deep breaths and calm down, that's the best thing you can do right now." She adjusts a few knobs on the readout and stares at it for a few moments, "It doesn't look like your body mass has changed drastically... so... I don't think you're in any danger. We'll need to get you to Medical to run a more thorough test... Should I get a stretcher for you, if you can't w
[20:05] <GM||WavemasterRyx> "Should I get a stretcher for you, if you can't walk on your own?"
[20:07] * Astera blinks. "Calm down... Calm down!? Are you seeing what Im seeing?" She waves a buttery hoof. Groaning she atempts to stand up.
[20:08] * Astera stands up without to much slipping, her rearhooves slowly spreading away from eachother. "No.. No, Lets go there now."
[20:12] * Swoop ([email protected]) Quit ( Ping timeout: 121 seconds )
[20:13] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Apple Sweet just smiles as she watches Cammy eating. The medic nods a little, looking at Astera worriedly, "Y-yes. The best thing in any emergency is to keep calm. I-I've seen patients have heart attacks just because they couldn't calm down, it can get bad fast."
[20:13] <GM||WavemasterRyx> "Alright though, I'll help support you on the way there, okay?" She quickly but carefully packs the medical kit back up and slides it onto her back before standing up next to Astera.
[20:14] * Astera nods, taking a few deep breath. "Right.. Calm. I can do that. Calmness." With the help of the medic pony she makes her way to the medical.
[20:16] * Chameleon looks up at Apple sweet "Want some?"
[20:18] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The unicorn smiles and waves a hoof gently, "Oh no thank you. You just looked so adorable, I couldn't help but watch."
[20:20] * Chameleon giggles and hugs one of Apple's legs
[20:20] * Astera probebly smears the helping medic in butter.
[20:20] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The trip down to Medical is long, but with the assistance of the earth pony, Astera manages not to slip any, even taking the stairs down. Eventually they reach their destination, and the medical pony guides Astera over to an examination table, "Please, take a seat up here while I get the Doctor."
[20:21] <Chameleon> "I got uuuum. Twans...twansmogwi...twansmogwified."
[20:21] * Astera looks at the table and nods warely. "Okay..." She trotts up to the table and atempts her best to climb it.
[20:23] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Apple nearly drops as you hug her leg, "Socuuuuute~"
[20:25] * Astera almost makes it up the table, as she is about to lift her rearlegs up she slips and slids off it. "No, no, no no no!" She falls in a heap on the floor. "... I hate butter."
[20:26] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Dr. Vial comes trotting out of his office, his face bearing none of the worry seen on the earth pony assistant, who races around him, "Oh no, C-Countess, are you alright?"
[20:27] * Astera lifts a hoof. "Yes.. Im okay. Just, lets just do the examination on the floor. Okay?"
[20:29] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Dr. Vial groans and rolls his eyes, "Yes, fine. You lie there, I'll do all the hard work." The glow of his magic wraps the emitter of the examination machine, pulling it down to hover in front of Astera, "Squirt, why don't you go contact Maintenance..."
[20:30] * Chameleon goes back to nomming pancakes
[20:30] * Astera gives Dr.Vial a appologetic smile.
[20:31] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The earth pony nods a little, "Yes, Doctor." Giving Astera a smile back, she trots over to the termial next to the main door.
[20:33] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Dr. Vial yawns a little as he trots slowly over to the machine's control panel, "So... butter..."
[20:34] <Astera> "Yes, butter. Melting butter at that."
[20:37] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The doctor just hmms as he stares at the readout, the machine softly glowing. Astera can feel the magic field eminating from it and running all through her body. After several minutes, he shuts the machine down, "Well... I have good news, and terrible news."
[20:38] * Astera keeps quiet during the process, trying her best not to panick the fuck out. She was butter. She bites her lower lip, tasting butter. "...yes?"
[20:40] * Swoop ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[20:40] <GM||WavemasterRyx> He looks down at Astera, "Well... the terrible news is... you have a few centuries to live..."
[20:41] * Astera blinks. "Was that suposed to be funny?"
[20:43] <GM||WavemasterRyx> He chuckles dryly, "Only to me. It's how I get by day to day."
[20:44] * Astera nods. "Right.. And the good news?"
[20:47] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Dr. Vial hops up onto the examination table, avoiding the butter slick over half of it, looking down at you, "Well, the good news is, I found out what's wrong. There's a minute magical field that's fused to your body, creating an effect very similar to that of a plant called 'poison joke'."
[20:52] * Astera looks up at Dr.Vial, her expression getting a little less worried. "Oh.. So you do know what it is? Is there a cure? Because.. I'm not sure Ill be able to do anything usefull being like this."
[20:56] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Dr. Vial nods a little, "For poison joke, there's a cure... The magical structure is different enough though that we'll likely need different materials." He looks down at you flatly, "No... I suppose not... Hopefully the rest of your team will be able to manage some flower picking without you. I'll talk to the other doctor and find out what you'll need... Why don't you go talk to the rest of your team."
[20:59] * Astera blinks. "Oh, oh no. The others might be affected aswell!" She atempts to stand up"
[21:00] * Astera stands, starting to move towards the exit. "Ah, flowerpicking?"
[21:04] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Dr. Vial nods again, sliding off the table and trotting slowly to his office, "Yes, the original cure for Poison Joke is an herbal bath, I'm sure that'll be the case for this as well."
[21:06] <Astera> "Im not sure if you noticed, but we are in space. Not many flowers around..." She says, leaning against the doorframe to medical
[21:10] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Dr. Vial chuckles dryly again, "There are flowers everywhere if you stare at enough flanks, Countess. All you'll need to do is bring back enough material for the Manufactorum to whip up whatever Homegrown tells them to."
[21:15] <Astera> "Oh, right.. "
[21:15] * Chameleon finished her pancakes and gave Apple another hug before returning to her room. She's now unblievably restless again. So much energy to let out!
[21:17] * Clara is still hiding under her blankets.
[21:17] <Astera> "So, gather material.. Bring them to Homegrown and I can revert.. This?" She point a wing at herself.
[21:18] <GM||WavemasterRyx> The Dr. smiles, "Yes, just that easy, I'm sure."
[21:19] * Astera rolls her eyes. "Really reasuring, thank you. Where can I find Homegrown?"
[21:22] * Chameleon decides to try the gardens. Maybe trying to climb trees will help.
[21:23] <GM||WavemasterRyx> He trots into his office, calling out, "I was going to call her now, while you checked on your other team members. She was supposed to report in soon for her shift anyways.
[21:24] <Astera> "Okay.. Ill check on the others!"
[21:24] * Astera moves out of clinic, checking her pipbuck tags for Swoop. Moving towards her room.
[21:25] * Chameleon decides to drop in on Clara. She liked the gardens...right? She stops outside Clara's room and knocks on the door "Clawa! Claaaaaaawaaaa!"
[21:29] * Astera manages to reach Swoops room after only tripping 3 times! A new record. Grumbling she knocks. "Swoop? Ah, you in there?"
[21:30] * Swoop screams back in a voice not her own, "GO AWAY!"
[21:31] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Swoop's voice, in fact, sounds very much like Swept screaming.
[21:31] * Clara does the same as Swoop, interestingly enough. "Go away!"
[21:32] * Astera blinks, checking her pipbuck tag again. No.. This was deffiniately Swoops tag. "Ah.. Im sorry, is Swoop in there with you? I really need to talk with her. Something, wierd, has happened and I need her help."
[21:32] <Swoop> "I AM SWOOP!!"
[21:33] <Chameleon> "Awww! Clawa, whats wong?"
[21:33] * Clara calls back, "I don't want to talk about it!"
[21:33] <Astera> "You are..? Swoop, what's happened with your voice?!"
[21:33] <Swoop> "I don't want to talk about it!"
[21:34] * Chameleon sniffles "Kay." Cammy turns and sulks off
[21:36] * Astera 's rearlegs has now drifted so far apart that she can't stand straight, she faceplants into the door. "Ow!" Groaning she leans her head against it, slowly slipping down towards the floor. "I really need your help Swoop! I'm melting out here, literally! Please open the door, it can't be that bad!"
[21:36] * Chameleon bumps into Astera and falls back on her plot, going crosseyed to look at the butter on her muzzle "Whoops! Missed some buttew fwom my pancakes.
[21:37] * Chameleon licks it up before looking at Astera "Oh noes! All my pancake butter gots all over you!"
[21:37] <Swoop> "...are you alone?"
[21:38] * Astera glances over to the side, filly Chameleon sitting there. "... Cammy?"
[21:38] <Chameleon> "I'm cammy!"
[21:38] <Chameleon> "And yer butter pony!"
[21:39] <Chameleon> buttew*
[21:39] * Astera "You too huh, yes, yes I'm very buttery. Don't worry, we're going to fix this.." She calls to Swoop. "Cammy is with me!"
[21:39] <Chameleon> "I am? I wuz going to tha gawdens!"
[21:40] * Swoop is silent for a minute or so, then the door clicks unlocked.
[21:40] <Chameleon> "I was gonna invite Clawa but she's a big meanie head."
[21:41] * Astera "And.. Im melting, ah, I dont think its a good idea to lick it.. Oh I just want to give you a big hug, but you'll probebly lick me up.." Her ears perk up, she opens the door. Still looking at Cammy. "Maybe we can go to Claras room later and see if we can get her out of there.."
[21:42] <Chameleon> "I gots some of you on my muzzle! I alweady licked it!"
[21:42] <Chameleon> "And kay!"
[21:43] * Swoop is completely covered by her blanket.
[21:43] * Astera slides into the room. "Swoop?" She aproaches the bed slowly.
[21:43] * Chameleon scoots in after Astera
[21:43] <Swoop> "I don't want anypony to see me..."
[21:44] <Astera> "Oh it can't be that bad.. I'm made of butter.. And Cammy is a filly."
[21:44] <Chameleon> "I's a filly!"
[21:44] * Swoop groans. "I'd rather be a filly than... than this!"
[21:46] * Astera blinks. "Why's your voice so deep Swoop.. Cmon. Its okay. Dr.Vial said there was a cure even."
[21:46] * Chameleon giggles at Swoop's voice
[21:47] <Swoop> "Good. Great. Fantastic. Let me know when you've got it."
[21:48] * Chameleon wiggles and pounces on Swoop
[21:48] <Astera> "Uh yeah sur-  Cammy!"
[21:48] * Chameleon scoots under the covers near Swoop head before she...he can protest "Hai!"
[21:48] * Swoop flails, falling off the bed, somehow retaining the covers over most of... the body.
[21:49] * Chameleon is pulled off the bed
[21:49] <Swoop> "Don't!!
[21:49] <Swoop> "
[21:49] * Chameleon lands in a giggling heap on the floor
[21:49] * Astera slides back, falling to her plot and gliding a few yards.
[21:49] * Swoop is curled in a ball beneath the covers. only a tail can be seen.
[21:49] * Astera knows that tail.
[21:50] <Astera> "...Swept?"
[21:50] <Chameleon> "Swept isn't Swoop silly!"
[21:50] * Swoop whines.
[21:51] <Swoop> "..not Swept... not my brother... not..."
[21:52] * Astera scoots forward slightly. "Hey.. Its alright, it could've been worse. Atleast you're not made of butter, right?"
[21:53] <Chameleon> "I like mine! I'm adowable."
[21:53] * Swoop shivers. "I'm.... I'm not.... I can't..."
[21:56] * Chameleon scoots over and patpat's SwoopSwept "It's kay."
[21:56] * Astera sighs. "Want us to come back later when we have checked on the others..? Dr.Vial said that we had to take a herbal bath, so you will have to leave here eventually you know.."
[21:56] * Swoop lays like that for a while... "You... you said there was a cure?"
[21:57] <Astera> "Yeah.. some sort of herbal bath is the cure aparantly."
[21:58] * Swoop takes a deep breath... "No... no I'll be alright... you're right. It could be worse. So... how do we get this bath?"
[21:59] * Astera glances off to the side. Poking at one of her melting spots again. "Ah, Homegrown had a machine I think.. That could produce the herbs needed for the bath."
[22:00] * Swoop untangles herself... HIMself... from the blankets. "Then.. we'd better round up the squad. If we're affected, so are they."
[22:01] * Chameleon giggles at SwoopSwept
[22:02] * Astera blinks at Swoopt. "Right.. Let's." She stumbles to her hooves.
[22:03] * Swoop looks at Astera. "Are you gonna be ok?"
[22:05] * Astera "Once I get that herbal bath, yes. Untill then.. Expect a faceplant, or three." She skates her way towards the door.
[22:07] * Swoop sighs, steeling himherself to leave the room. "Come on, Cammy. Let's go get Clara."
[22:07] * Chameleon scrambles to her hooves and wiggles "Kay!"
[22:08] <Chameleon> "Hey Astewa. Will you get shorter if you lose too much buttew?"
[22:08] * Swoop trots to the next door and knocks on it. "Clara, it's Swoop... sort of."
[22:09] * Astera is sitting front of the door. She look at Cammy. She whimpers "I'm not sure I want to find out.. "
[22:10] * Clara calls back again, "No visitors!"
[22:11] <Swoop> "Not here to visit. Open up."
[22:11] <Chameleon> "Get out hewe Clawa!"
[22:11] <Chameleon> "Stop being a silly!"
[22:11] <Astera> "Please Clara open up, we just want to know if you're okay"
[22:12] * Clara doesn't move an inch. She shouts back, "No I'm not okay!"
[22:12] <Astera> "... Well, as okay as you can get." She adds a little quieter. Lifting a buttery hoof
[22:12] <Swoop> "Neither are we. Astera's been to the doc, and there might be a cure."
[22:13] * Clara shouts, "Good! Come back when you have it!"
[22:14] * Swoop smirks. Sounds familiar. "Not how it works, Clara. You gotta come with to get it."
[22:15] <Astera> "The cure is a herbal bath, can't take a bath in your room."
[22:16] * Clara still doesn't budge. "I'm never coming out! Never!"
[22:16] * Chameleon grumbles and punches Clara's door "Stop being a stupid!"
[22:16] * Chameleon blinks when she realizes there's now a dent in Clara door. she stands straight and fidgets "Whoops."
[22:17] <Swoop> "Clara, I got turned into my own brother. Astera's a buttery alicorn, and Cammy's a filly. Whatever happened, it can't be that bad."
[22:17] <Chameleon> Clara's door*
[22:17] * Astera "Cammy, take it easy!" She blinks and looks at the dent. "Wow."
[22:17] * Swoop glares down at Cammy. "Really?"
[22:17] <Chameleon> "It wuz an accident!"
[22:17] <Astera> "I'm literally melting!"
[22:18] * Chameleon gets huge filly eyes and her ears droop as she looks at Swoop
[22:18] * Swoop rolls her eyes.
[22:18] * Clara wraps up tighter in the blankets. "Yes it can be that bad!"
[22:19] * Swoop fights the urge to fall over on hisher side and foam at the mouth from adawable, and goes back to looking at the door.
[22:19] <Swoop> "Well if you don't come out then you're stuck like that forEVER."
[22:20] * Clara sobs quietly. Not budging not budging not budging.
[22:20] * Astera 's rear as slided backward, gravity gets its say and she lays down with a slump.
[22:21] <Swoop> "Clara, come on. Whatever you look like, it's not permenant unless you come with us."
[22:21] * Clara is too busy sobbing from Swoop's insensitive remarks to respond.
[22:22] * Swoop sighs. "Look, I'm bored of asking. Open up."
[22:23] * Clara is not budging. At all.
[22:23] <Chameleon> "I'm sowwy for punching youw doow Clawa."
[22:27] <Swoop> "Ok... who knows how to open a lock?"
[22:30] * Astera sighs. "I.. Think I can manualy override it from out here." She scoots closer to the door's lock.
[22:30] * Swoop steps out of the way.
[22:35] <GM||WavemasterRyx> It seems to only take a mere touch of magic at the override and the door instantly slides open for Astera.
[22:35] * Astera nods and peeks inside.
[22:35] * Clara is covered tightly in blankets, sobbing.
[22:36] * Chameleon scoots inside "It's kay Clawa."
[22:38] * Swoop steps in lightly. "Clara? I'm sorry we broke in, but we don't want to leave you like this. However you look."
[22:38] * Clara definitely doesn't think it's okay. "Y...you can't l...look!"
[22:40] * Astera stumbles inside, faceplants. "We.. Ah! Mrgh.. We've all changed, one way or the other.."
[22:40] <Swoop> "We'll have to eventually. So long as you're not some C'thulu creature from Tartarus, I think you'll be okay with being seen.."
[22:43] * Clara sobs even louder when Swoop says that.
[22:43] * Swoop scratches the back of hisher head. "Wow... I nailed it didn't I?"
[22:44] * Chameleon scoots over the the bed and patpats the ball of covers on it "It's kaaaaaay!"
[22:46] * Clara cringes away from the touch. "No it w...won't!"
[22:47] * Swoop sighs and heads back out the door. "I'm useless here. You two see of you can get her moving. I'm gonna go find Swept and Hopes."
[22:47] <Astera> "Ah.. Okay."
[22:47] <Chameleon> "Well you can't get bettew if you don't leave..."
[22:48] * Clara goes back to sobbing.
[22:48] <Astera> "You can hide under the blanket, I guess but you cannot stay in here Clara.."
[22:48] * Swoop trots off in search of the rest of the team.
[22:50] * Chameleon climbs up and hugs Clara. Well, her blanket which is over her
[22:51] * Clara is pretty distraught. "I can't even ch...change. It doesn't work!"
[22:53] * Chameleon tilts her head and sits back, trying to shift her form
[22:53] <Astera> "Thats because there is a magical field affecting you.. Dr.Vial said it was something like poison joke back on equestria.."
[22:54] <GM||WavemasterRyx> Nothing happens when Chameleon tries to change either.
[22:54] <Astera> "Maybe you are changing, but the magical aura dosnt... "
[22:54] <Chameleon> "Huh. I can't neithew."
[22:56] * Clara tugs the blankets closer around herself. "I just don't want anyone to see me!"
[22:57] <Chameleon> "Then keep the blankets awound you!"
[23:00] * Clara fidgets a bit. "Th...then go outside! I'll get r...ready..."
[23:01] * Chameleon hops off the bed and goes outside
[23:01] <Astera> "Ah, alright.. Cmon Cammy." She stands up and moves outside.
[23:04] * Clara waits until the door is fully closed before the gets off the bed, doing her best to wrap the blanket around herself so it covers as much of herself as possible while still letting her move without tripping over her own four hooves.
[23:10] * Clara double, triple, and even quadruple-checks her covering to make sure it's as secure as possible, and shows the least possible. Only when she's perfectly sure does she go to open the door.
[23:10] * Chameleon waves "Hai Clawa!"
[23:11] * Clara is shaking a little. She mutters, "Hi..."
