The Outer Farmsteads

[Duck]

*rubs his head* they kick ya in the jimmy there...

And sure it aint right, but those guys woulda killed anyone they saw. Us or them y'know.

[Goose]

Bruce doubles back in shock, and falls on his butt from infamiliarity with his... her new body. She puts her hands to her cheeks in shock.

"The chest is made... smaller and larger at the same time! What has happened to the person that is me?!"

[Duck]

*looks over at bruce* ...

what the hells is.. on my dude your half your size!

[Goose]

Bruce covers up his bare breasts with folded arms, and clenches his thin legs tight.

"I-I... do not have the knowing!... Ah..."

Bruce starts panicing a little bit, and starts rambling in Celestial. His native tongue sounds cute when spoken so well in his new voice.

[Empusa Sesshi]

The panicing Bruce may or may not notice some smallish clothing flapping on the breeze outside on a clothesline.

[Duck]

What in the world are you singing? *looks around a bit* where did those orcs go anyway?

[Goose]

The smaller, sleeker, girlier Bruce gave a quick look around for any orcish types. She is interrupted when a peculiar cloth, caught in a strong breeze, smacks her in the face. She eeps, and holds it out in front of her, examining it.

The object is a small human girl's dress, the same that was hanging on the clothesline just before, having been blown off. It is pink, embroidered with white lace, has a bow and ruffled skirt on the back, and has pink hearts all along the dress. Whether fortunate or not all depends on your perspective, but Bruce isn't quite sure exactly what this thing in his arms is. Turning to Kraus...

"Um, Kraus... The thing that is pink, what is it being?"

[Duck]

That's gonna be your new robes. Those you've got on are, well useless.

Go put it on. You can use one of the empty rooms. Great.. now people are gonna think I'm either a perv, or a dad.

We gotta find those orcs and get you fixed.

[Goose]

Bruce starts putting on this strange garment right now, not wanting to waste any time in pursuit of the orcs. Pulling it over her head, she wiggles her tiny frame into the snug pink suit. She fixes her hair just enough so it's out of her face, and begins looking for any sign of the large villans.

[Empusa Sesshi]

Whatever the orcs were after, it seems they've claimed it and moved on. The now diminuitive monk is just standing in a little girl's dress on the stoop of a cottage.

[Duck]

*looks over at Bruce*

Priests break curses right? We'll head to the monistary, we were goin there anyway.

[Goose]

Bruce nods excitedly.

"Yes, we must do the talking to those who are being the priests! The girl who sent us to the place we are at must also be told of the leaving that the orcs have done!"

Bruce takes off running down the street, just as she did when she got here. Where the former Bruce had fluid, fast, and powerful movements, this Bruce scampers and trips over her own two legs, falling right onto her face. She gets up onto her knees, rubbing her nose.

"The pain has gone up my nose..."

[Duck]

*goes to help the poor girl up* look.... you gotta remember.. you aint exactly well... agile anymore. so... move slower ok?

[Goose]

"Y-yes... patience is the mother of wisdom..."

Bruce rubs her nose clean of dust and pats herself off. She tries taking things more slowly and begins walking down the street at a normal pace.

[Duck]

*takes the girls hand* look.. it'll be less suspicious if you kinda... talk less. The more people know who you were, the more likely we are to be attacked again, and I aint a huge fighter as you saw.
