[Juni appears on the plane holding a cup of coffee, obviously expecting everything to be perfectly normal... It's not.

The reason being that she is now a woman in her thirties with black hair and a faintly wolf like gait... wearing only ropes, very skilfully weaved ropes that cover absolutely everything but still just ropes, with not a bit of normal material at all.] Honestly, I don't know what...

[And then she glances down at herself, drops the cup of coffee and lets out a rather loud scream] What...? What...? What the...?

[Staggers back a few steps in shock and then seems to gather herself up, now instead of looking completely stunned she looks rather incredibly angry] What the hell is going on? I fought hard enough for my perfectly good body in the first place, I shaped it perfectly and now this.

[Plucks at the ropes] ...Honestly, what?

You've been tying yourself up in knots. The Plane can see it too.

[Drusilla moves towards Juni, running a long red nail over the nearest rope. She could easily slice through, but she doesn't. It can be very hard to tell with Dru, but she almost looks amused.]

OOC: Like I could pass up an opportunity to comment on this XD

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Okay, Juni would be looking rather embarrassed and trying to tug the ropes higher up her chest now, she still remembers how their last encounter went] I have... Okay, so maybe I have been, did I have to get covered in ropes though?

[OOC: *Evil laugh*]

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

[Oh, Drusilla remembers that too. See that smirk, Juni? That's all for you.] Maybe it's a new game? Have you been naughty?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Juni is still blushing, but a faint curiosity seems to be mixed in with it now] I'm always naughty.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

But you've never been tied up before? You've missed out on so much fun.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Of course I've been tied up before, it's just never been any fun.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

[Another smirk, perhaps even wider than the first.] That's easy to fix. But not until you're yourself again. Your face is all wrong. Your smell!

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Smirk] Oh, I look forward to it.

...What about my smell?

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

It isn't yours. You've stolen it.

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

[Sapphire attempts to speak, then finds her body suddenly shifted into ... the exact same body, except she's not an Element any longer]

Pardon me?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

I didn't exactly mean to.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Still tugging at the ropes] Mm?

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

Oh, but you did. In your head. You didn't know it, but you wished it.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

...I do hope you aren't saying that I secretly have a bondage fetish.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

Why keep something like that secret?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Smirk] Even if I do, I certainly never wished to be dressed only in ropes.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

Did you wish to change your skin? Your face? All the little bits. Inside and outside bits. Where did they go?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

...I did, once.

But that was long ago, and I don't know where they have gone.

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

[two hearts, weird! Well, put on a smile!]

I'm sorry, but can I be of any assistance?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Glances up and smiles faintly] ...Could I trouble you for a blanket or something?

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

What a clever trick. What a clever little girl.

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

It's no trouble at all.

[she smiles with assurance, then vanishes, returning with a warm (blue) blanket for Juni]

You'll find your body will return to normal when you return to your home world, I think.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Juni would be beaming now] Thank you! ...I hope so, I don't want to wear ropes forever.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[There is a long pause and then she speaks quietly, and she isn't speaking about her current state] It was just a spell, I didn't really have much part in it.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

You make yourself. Weaving it out of stars and spiderwebs.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

...There were no stars, not in Loss's world anyway.

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

[smiles] That would be somewhat awkward, unless you're from a world unlike most I've seen.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

It would be... Well, actually I doubt that most of them would care, Loss would be embarrassed though.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

No, not those. Your stars.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

...What?

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

[She glides forward to tap Juni lightly on the chest, just over the heart.]

You have your own light. Like a little white bird. Swan's down in your pillow and the grass for a blanket. Can't run away.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Takes a step back, swaying, when she speaks she sounds slightly strangled] I can run as far as I want to.

[elementsapphire.livejournal.com]

A friend of yours?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

...More an employer.

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

No, you can't. You can run and run, but you can't get away.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Glances away... And then in soft tones...] Get away from what? Beranabus? Loss? ...It?

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

All of it.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

...Everything?

[a-pretty-fire.livejournal.com]

[Drusilla grins.] Are you scared?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Hesitates and then scowls] Of course I am, not so much of Loss but...
