[open broadcast] (just after the jaunt starts)

[fridgeninja]

I have cat eyes.

And my ears have points.

[wholeheaded]

Of course you do, you're an elf.

[ yadda yadda Infiltrator Knowledge. ]

[fridgeninja]

The elves in Questing Country seemed... shorter.

[wholeheaded]

Were the Questing Country elves from a place called January? If not we're dealing with a whole other barrel of monkeybats.

[fridgeninja]

Different monkeybats, then.

[happyhalloween]

Uu-uu! So do mine! So do mine! I look really neat, Souji!

[fridgeninja]

I'm sure you do. Can I see?

[happyhalloween]

Sure! But I can't do the thing that shows people what I'm seeing, so I'm gonna have to find you!

[fridgeninja]

I'm by the house with pointy towers, too many weathervanes, and a strange clock.

[There are probably several dozen houses like that...]

[lunchleader]

Hey, Maria~! Are you taller as well?

[Guess who suddenly sounds older?]

[happyhalloween]

Yeah! But I could get even more tallerer!

[Just let her find a safe spot and she'll turn into Kiki Midori, just you wait.]

[leftbehindagain]

You would seize on that right out of the gate. [If anything, it's a surprise Magnus followed Naoto back from Rome.]

I had a little more problem with the sudden shift in center of gravity.

[fridgeninja]

... Did you get fat?

[leftbehindagain]

No, just taller.

[wickedestwitch]

So does everyone else in the city.

[fridgeninja]

Ah. That makes more sense then.

[wickedestwitch]

Is it really that much of a problem?

[gotabadfeelingaboutthis]

Yeah, tell me about it. I'm still getting used to it, too.

Every time I see my reflection, it's just weird.

[awondrousplace]

Excellent observational skills, darling.

We seem to all have been transformed.

[fridgeninja]

Should I be getting ready to go to a ball with a midnight curfew?

[awondrousplace]

I certainly hope no one will be losing their shoes.

Also, I prefer to keep my heels and toes in tact.

[mytearsaremine]

And I'm blue and my tentacles are made out of wire and gears.

Is this... normal? To still be us, but look totally different?

[neverfeltthatway]

It's not uncommon, if it helps us to blend in with the local population.

[mytearsaremine]

I'll try not to be weirded out, then. Though I kind of am. I mean, the tentacles in particular, they're just all clicky and tick-tocky and they make whirring noises when they move.

[fridgeninja]

This might be the first place we've visited where none of the locals look human.

[mytearsaremine]

Really? Well, hooray for me getting to experience it, then. This is super weird, but also kind of cool? I mean, I'm blue.
