Castle Wittelsbach - A new day, a new quarter

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:15 pm

Sara blinks and looks at her hand, although on second, less sleepy, thought that kind of makes sense considering the wet patch in the bed.

"Maybe that's because you're made of water?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:18 pm

A pause.

"Might be...everything's...different."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:22 pm

"Different how?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:24 pm

"Hard to focus on...like everything's moving..." he said after a pause, finally turning around.

He was relatively featureless on this side, as well, with just a mouth as the eye worked it's way back around to the front.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:25 pm

"Like when you were trying the water thing for the first time?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:26 pm

"No...that was different.

This...stop fidgeting, please?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:31 pm

Sara blinks, not even having noticed the little fidgeting she's doing and wraps herself tighter in the covers to stop herself. "Sorry. The thing with the eye just... odd, you know?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:32 pm

"Everything's fidgeting..." he mumbled.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:34 pm

"Everything?" she asks, sounding confused.

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:34 pm

"Everything. It's...distracting."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:42 pm

"Can you... can you try making yourself cold? Like really really cold?" she says after a moment.

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:43 pm

"Hrm? If anything, I'm too hot..." he complained.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:50 pm

"I know." Or so you think anyway. "You can do ice right?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:51 pm

"Ice? Yeah, I like ice..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:54 pm

"Honey listen to me. I want you to try and shift into ice."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 5:57 pm

"It's way too hot for ice," he complained.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:00 pm

"Damn..." she mumbles and throws the covers on the bed and gets dressed as fast as she can (which, in her current state isn't all that fast).

"Come with me, I have an idea to make things less... fidgety."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:01 pm

"Um...OK" he said.

Moving forward, he wasn't exactly walking so much as sliding forward, with legs appearing and disappearing when necessary.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:06 pm

Sara tries not to look at Will shuffling forward too much as she goes to look for one of their hosts who might still be up.

They eventually come across a dark-skinned man exiting the corridor leading to the broadcast room. He was dressed in street clothes, with a wolf insignia on his shirt.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:23 pm

"Oh! Hey! Excuse me!" Sara says as she hurries after the man. Having caught up to him she pants slightly. "I need a little help. Or, rather, my husband does. Do you have some liquid nitrogen somewhere for cooling the transmission equipment?"

by **RRR** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:33 pm

"As a matter of fact we do," he answered in a British accent, "C'mon, he doesn't look so good." He led the way.

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:35 pm

"Whazzis? Sara, it's too hot..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:41 pm

"Thank you very much, sir." she says before turning back to Will as they walk. "I know, honey. It'll get better soon."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:44 pm

"Maybe if you hold me really close again," he said, with a wavering smile. "I liked that."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:48 pm

"You're kinda loose and watery right now..." she smiles a bit sadly, putting a hand on (well, in) Will's shoulder.

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:53 pm

"True...why the hell is it so hot? Did we go to the tropics?"

by **RRR** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:57 pm

"Not much further now," he said, "You'll be right as rain in a jiff."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:07 pm

After making their way to the bowels of the transmission system and are shown the cooling circuit Sara shifts to stone before locating the outlet valve of the system's liquid nitrogen storage. I hope this works...

Aiming the nozzle at Will she opens the valve and a stream of the liquefied gas shoots out at Will.

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:18 pm

Will shouted as the blast hit him, and a great deal of vapor obscured him from view.

When the smoke cleared, Will stood--quite blue, and still bald, with little bulges where the ripples were frozen solid.

"Woo...that's...that's maybe a bit TOO cold."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:19 pm

"Sorry..." Sara says, looking relieved as the 'smoke' clears. "Did it make the jittery fidgeting better?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:20 pm

"Y...yeah, actually. How'd you do that?"

by **RRR** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:25 pm

"She froze ya solid mate."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:33 pm

"I think you're aware of your molecules moving. Now they're moving much slower because you're cooled down to over 300 degrees below zero." she says, giving Will a great big hug.

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:34 pm

"...oh. I guess that makes sense...." he said, using one frozen hand to rub Sara's back.

by **RRR** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:37 pm

"You're wife certainly is clever one."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:40 pm

"It'll probably get worse again when you thaw, but maybe you can get used to it better if it happens slowly."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:43 pm

"Right...yes, that makes sense," he said, blinking.

The pause in responses had pretty much vanished, though he still sounded a little vacant.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:52 pm

"Think you'll be okay for now?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Sep 25, 2010 7:53 pm

"Yeah...it was so weird...it IS so weird...I mean...everything is just so....I mean, there's, like, millions..."
