> Sollux: Turn into a bee. [Action!]

[biwinning]

[So the castle locked everyone out for a while. Sollux would probably be one of the first to start whining about this sort of thing... if he could even have access to a journal. It's not that he can't find one or anything-- it's more that he's just a bit too tiny for that. And by a bit I mean a lot. Due to a loss, Sollux is now bee-sized, along with a pair of wings to match the change. He can't be bigger than an inch at least, right now.

And needless to say, he's not happy with this new development. Cue a bug-sized troll attempting to find his way back to his room, and probably annoying a few people along the way. And also getting distracted by flowers. Bee instincts, man.

Feel free to run into him... or swat at him.]

[It's been a while since Aradia has seen or heard from her moirail, and not just because she's been buzzing around the outpost for a few days. And even better, since the castle got all eff'd up, she can't find his room, either. She's starting to get worried. What if he got sent back...??

She's checking the game room first, but if he's not there she'll continue searching the rest of the castle.]

Sollux? Are you in here?

[biwinning]

[Yes, he's not in the game room. He's wandering around the fourth floor though, trying to get to his room at 416. If Aradia happens to wander on that floor, he'll immediately try to get her attention...

...By buzzing around in her face.]

[psych0p0mps]

[Well, she wanders and wanders and eventually winds up on the fourth floor, and-

BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ as;fdkjlkj what's this thing buzzing all up in her grill. She instinctively swats at it.]

[biwinning]

[Why does everyone he like hit him.

Oh yeah, because he's in bee-form. Okay, new tactic. LAND ON HER NOSE.]

AA!

[psych0p0mps]

[Oh for- wait. That tiny voice. That tiny, familiar voice. Aradia stops short of trying to shake him off, and goes cross-eyed trying to look at him instead.]

... Sollux?

[Oh. Yeah, that's definitely him. Only TINY. She'll bring a hand up to her nose so he can stand on it. Quick bro, you're tickling her nose.]

[biwinning]

[Okay okay, moving his little legs onto her hand now.]

Yeth.

[psych0p0mps]

[And caaarefully moving her hand to where she can see him without hurting her eyes. So... so tiny. It's oddly adorable.]

That explains why I couldn't find you, I guess. When did this start?

[biwinning]

I don't know. A week at leatht. I wath thtuck outhtide for the longetht fucking time.

[psych0p0mps]

Everybody was stuck outside, Sollux.

[It's all she can do to keep from bursting into snickers. His tiny voice is of course not hilarious at all, nope. Anyway, starting toward his room, which of course totally hasn't moved shhhh.]

I'm glad you're okay, though. Good thing I'm not a frog now, huh? That would go downhill fast.

[biwinning]

Yeah, don't remind me. That would have been an abtholute dithathter...

[Just gonna ride on Aradia's hand. Being carried > flying, every day.]

[psych0p0mps]

[Whaaat, sacrilege! Flying is awesome. But she'll let you rest your lil' wings, dude. She finally finds his room, and ... frowns disapprovingly.]

Your room didn't move.

[biwinning]

[Flying is awesome, but ew, effort. Being carried is much better.]

Yeah, thtill 416.

[psych0p0mps]

[You bum. Gonna head on in now, if it's unlocked.]

Figures. After I go looking everywhere else for it first.

[biwinning]

Why would you do that?

[Eh, whatever. Crawling all over Aradia's hand in excitement at finally being in his room again.]

[psych0p0mps]

A whole bunch of stuff got moved around. The castle only has like half as many floors now, except in the towers. My room's on the ground now. [She's mildly annoyed at that. It's more fun to jump out the window from at least the second floor :T]

[biwinning]

What room number?

[psych0p0mps]

2001. So it's in the same tower, just a floor down.

[Doop doop clears a spot on the desk to set him down. YOUR ROOM'S A MESS AS USUAL BRO]

[biwinning]

[He hasn't had a chance to clean!! Not that he ever would.]

Wanna trade roomsth?

[Is he kidding or not?! Who knows.]

[psych0p0mps]

[Pulls up a chair and rests her chin in her hands.]

Nah, then I'd have to take the play structure apart again. You can stay with me if you want, though. Until you're big enough not to get eaten by your bees.

[biwinning]

[Oh, fuck. He hadn't thought about that. He's not a mind bee, and although he can speak their language-- it'd really suck if they thought of him as an enemy bee.]

... Yeah, I guessth I should. It'th not like there'th even anything for me to take with me either, my computersth too big for me to uthe...

[psych0p0mps]

That's not a big deal, we can make a tiny one in the alchemiter. And a tiny recuperacoon and stuff. [She figures he can't have been sleeping well without that.]

[biwinning]

I'm not planning on thtaying thith way forever.

[psych0p0mps]

Well, duh! But as long as it does last, there is no point in giving you extra reason to grouse.

[biwinning]

Fine.
