Omega19x: "... Hey, Malik.."
Omega19x: *in the sunlight, you can see that mostly all
of the left side of his face is burned.You couldn't tell
before*
ph33r my rod: "Hey, Ryou--" *blinks* "...what happened to your
face?"
Omega19x: "... my... my yami accidently dumped soup
on me... yesterday..."
Omega19x: "...we bumped into each other... on the
stairs"
ph33r my rod: "...oh. Does it hurt much...?"
Omega19x: "not... not anymore..."
Omega19x: "... except when I touch it..."
ph33r my rod: "...I guess that's good?" *headscratch*
Omega19x: "... anything... is better than yesterday..."
Omega19x: "... I... I don't think I've ever been... been
so scared..."
ph33r my rod: *nods* "Agreed."
Omega19x: *shudders thinking about it*
Omega19x: "... I think it shocked me... at least six
times..." *taps his chest*
Omega19x: "...and that was just when Honda had the
tauk..."
ph33r my rod: *winces just thinking about that* "Like... little
shocks?"
Omega19x: "... like... like big ones..."
ph33r my rod: "...ouch."
Omega19x: "... when... when you had the tauk that one
time... it... it worked right... why... why didn't it work
right at all this time?"
ph33r my rod: "... I have no idea. I think the more that we use it,
the more messed up that it gets. I wish Isis would just leave it alone."
*sighs*
Omega19x: *shudders again, thinking about what more
harm it could do.*
Omega19x: "I... I don't think I liked being a girl... It... it
was painful... and it ruined one of my few good pairs of
pants."
ph33r my rod: "I definitely didn't like being a girl." *shudder* "I
couldn't deal with the whole bleeding-once-a-month thing."
Omega19x: "It... it hurts..."
ph33r my rod: *nods* "And the boobs got in the way too much."
Omega19x: (I;'m going to KILL THAT FUCKING
PIECE OF FABRI C)
Omega19x: ()@)$&@)*#_!__)
ph33r my rod: (( Uh oh, what'd it do? ))
Omega19x: (got it)
Omega19x: (it wouldn't cover what I just measured.)
ph33r my rod: (( Ah. :o ))
Omega19x: (now, where were we?)
Omega19x: "... Yours... might have... mine... really
didn't..."
ph33r my rod: *looks down at his manly chest* "I honestly dunno
how girls put up with it." *sigh* "I'm glad it didn't last that long."
Omega19x: "... you and me both..."
Omega19x: "... I don't think my yami would have liked
it... very much..."
ph33r my rod: *shakes head* "Other me got off lucky." *pouts* "I
dunno how he managed to leave in the middle of everything, but
however he did, he really got off lucky."
Omega19x: *nod nod*
Omega19x: "... I... know..."
Omega19x: "... but we're all back to normal now... and
that's what matters..."
Omega19x: "...I... I don't mind watching myself be a
girl... but... having to... to experience it... That's a bit
much..."
ph33r my rod: *nodnodnod* "Yes. I swear, I should take that Tauk
and hide it or something so Isis stops messing with it."
Omega19x: "... careful... you pick it up, you don't know
what will happen..."
Omega19x: (and I'll have to leave in ten minutes, so if
someting happens, it will be tbc.)
ph33r my rod: (( Kay. ))
Omega19x: "...do you want to hide it?"
Omega19x: "... We... could put it in my... my room... so
she won't find it..."
ph33r my rod: "..." *nods* "If we can find something to pick it up
with, it shouldn't do anything... since we won't be touching it directly."
Omega19x: "... or by the string..."
Omega19x: "... then we won't touch the item itself."
ph33r my rod: *nods*
Omega19x: *smiles* "... let's get it."
ph33r my rod: "Kay."
Omega19x: *and the two head upstairs to Isis room,
where the tauk is sitting on her bedside table.*
ph33r my rod: *picks it up by the chain*
Omega19x: *and cue the white mist*
ph33r my rod: "...uh oh."
Omega19x: *grabs on to Malik*
Omega19x: *and when the mist clears, they're in the
same house, in their same bodies, just like the last time
they found a vision*
Omega19x: "... I... I think it's... working properly...?"
ph33r my rod: *blinks*
Omega19x: "...wh...what were you thinking about when
you picked it up?"
ph33r my rod: "Getting rid of it?"
Omega19x: *gulp*
Omega19x: "... I... I think I thought of... of being girls..."
ph33r my rod: "..."
Omega19x: *they can hear sounds downstairs*
ph33r my rod: "...what the?"
Omega19x: "... should we look?"
ph33r my rod: "...might as well." *blinks*
Omega19x: *carefully walk downstairs, to see a male
Malik...*
Omega19x: *helping a female Ryou to a chair*
Omega19x: *... a pregnant... female... Ryou...*
Omega19x: "..." *BLINK*
ph33r my rod: "....." *BLINK*
Omega19x: *stands watching the female version of
himself. Can't be much older than he is now.*
ph33r my rod: "... Um." *blink blink*
Omega19x: "... if... if I was a girl... at that bus stop...
they... they must have succeeded in... in... you know..."
Omega19x: *shudders, glad that he's really not a girl*
ph33r my rod: *brain is broken* "... This soooo does not compute."
Omega19x: "... The tauk is messed up..."
ph33r my rod: *looks at Tauk* "...very very messed up."
Omega19x: *looks at visionMalik, who appears quite
concerned, and at visionRyou, who looks to be in pain.*
Omega19x: *He overhears Malik cursing, 'What do you
mean you think it's time to have the babies?!'*
ph33r my rod: *BLINK*
Omega19x: "... Did... did that me just say babies?"
Omega19x: "... as... as in more than one?"
ph33r my rod: "I... think... so..." *BLINK BLINK*
Omega19x: (you can feel free to jump in as to what
they're doing, and suppliment my dead brain)
ph33r my rod: (( *teh think* ))
Omega19x: "... I... I thought... people carrying twins...
were supposed to look bigger..." *keeps staring*
Omega19x: *listens as vision Malik continues to rant,
pacing up and down the floor. 'It's 29 weeks. You can't
do that at 29 weeks. You just can't!' He seems quite
frantic.*
Omega19x: *The female Ryou loooks like she doesn't
really have a choice in the matter*
ph33r my rod: (( That's... just a little over 5 months o_____o;; ))
ph33r my rod: (( I think? ))
Omega19x: *is meanwhile counting on his fingers...*
Omega19x: (more like 7)
ph33r my rod: (( Oh. :o *can't count* ))
Omega19x: "... um... that's... early... That's too early..."
Omega19x: "... It's supposed to be... 36 to 40 weeks, I
think... Gosh... What did it say that health textbook..."
ph33r my rod: "..." *blink blink* "That's... holy crap." *watches*
Omega19x: *the female Ryou is in obvious pain, clearly
ready to give birth... to babies that can't possibly be old
enough to survive. The male Malik is shouting, trying to
get her to the hospital, or at least standing. But there isn't
time for such intervention.*
Omega19x: "... I... I don't want to watch that!" *closes
eyes*
Omega19x: *insert graphically detailed expulsion of
dead fetuses here*
ph33r my rod: *stares* ".........."
Omega19x: *Ryou's eyes are closed. He hears only the
female version of himself crying and screaming*
Omega19x: "... Malik... make this stop! make this
stop!!"
Omega19x: *clings onto Malik, not wanting to even
hear more*
ph33r my rod: *looks at Tauk* "Get us the hell out of this vision,
you damn piece of tin!"
Omega19x: "... please... please let us out..."
*whispering, shaking, trembling*
ph33r my rod: *grabs onto the Tauk itself, get us out get us out get
us out get us out*
Omega19x: *they can hear the visionMalik comforting
the female Ryou. Or trying to comfort her*
Omega19x: "..."
Omega19x: *in another moment, they are back in Isis'
bedroom, the white mist disappearing*
ph33r my rod: *blinks*
Omega19x: *opens his eyes when he hears silence, and
jumps quickly, as far back away from the tauk as
possible.*
ph33r my rod: *tosses the Tauk into a far corner of the room*
"....."
Omega19x: *is frozen from the sights and sounds of the
vision, face completely blanched*
Omega19x: "... I... I think I'm going to be sick..."
ph33r my rod: *falls to knees, completely unable to say anything*
Omega19x: *curls up next to Malik, holding onto him as
though he were a single buoy in the middle of the ocean.*
ph33r my rod: "... I never want to see anything like that again..."
Omega19x: "... oh god... It... oh god..."
Omega19x: "I'm glad to be a boy... I'm glad to be a
boy, and here, and not there... and... oh god..."
Omega19x: *is shaking*
Omega19x: "... that... that future... that can never really
happen. It... it's not physically possible for it to happen...
it can't happen."
ph33r my rod: "..." *wraps arms around Ryou, holding him close*
"It was just a vision. Just something the Tauk, as fucked up as it is,
showed us... there's no way it can happen..."
Omega19x: "... I'm... I'm a guy... It... it can't happen..."
Omega19x: "... god... her... her scream... my scream...
oh god..."
ph33r my rod: "No, no it can't. It's... it was just like a bad dream, it
can't - it won't happen..."
Omega19x: "... " *still clinging to Malik*
Omega19x: "... not... not even shadow magic can make
that happen... right?"
ph33r my rod: *shakes head, gently rubbing Ryou's back* "Even if
the Tauk did turn us into girls that one time, it... didn't last that long...
there's no way it would last long enough for something like that to
happen."
Omega19x: *you can seee the tears in his eyes, from
sheer terror*
Omega19x: *the thoughts of, if you thought your life was
bad now, just think what could have happened if... start
to ring true*
ph33r my rod: *just holds on to Ryou, trying to calm him down* "It's
over now. It was just a vision... that's all..."
Omega19x: *buries his face in Malik's arms*
Omega19x: "... I'm... I'm just so glad it's over..."
ph33r my rod: *nuzzles his face into Ryou's hair, still rubbing his
back* "... I am so not touching that thing again."
Omega19x: "... never... not... not even to get rid of it..."
Omega19x: *still shaking, but less now*
ph33r my rod: *shakes head* "Someone else can try and get rid of
it, we're not going to see these freaky visions anymore."
Omega19x: "... no... not again..."
Omega19x: "... never... please never again..."
ph33r my rod: *looks over to the corner in which he threw the
Tauk, can't see it on the floor - it probably landed in a pile of clothes or
something* "..."
Omega19x: "..." *shudders*
Omega19x: "... Let... let Isis deal with it..."
ph33r my rod: *nods* "It's her Item, she can mess with it all she
wants to... but we'll have nothing more to do with it."
Omega19x: *weak nod*
ph33r my rod: *gently strokes Ryou's face* "...you okay now...?"
Omega19x: "... I... can I ... sleep in your... your bed
tonight? My... my yami's been gone all day... I... I don't
want to be... be alone in there..."
ph33r my rod: *nods*
Omega19x: "...thank you..." *huddles closer to Malik as
they stand up*
ph33r my rod: *hugs Ryou* "...anytime."
Omega19x: *is hugged*
