Common Room - What just happened?

by **Kay Haddock** » Tue Apr 30, 2013 9:09 pm

Kay suddenly finds herself sitting on the couch in the common room, watching TV. Blinking she looks around, wondering how she got teleported over here from her room. Then she notices her hands. They don't really look like hers used to, but in her shock she barely notices.

"I'm back to normal!" she shouts, jumping up. Then immediately looks confused at her own voice. "What the heck?" And what are those blurry frames in her field of vision. Glasses? And why is red hair falling into her face. She takes two steps to go find... something or somebody. A mirror maybe. Then stops and turns around to grab the remote and turn off the TV. However once she picks it up and turns to the TV she almost instinctively throws it at one of the characters on screen, embedding the remote in the now broken and sparking flatscreen with a loud crash. She just blinks and stares at it with her mouth hanging open.

"There's some sort of fight going on outside," Theresa said, rushing into the common room. Then she noticed the TV, "What the hell did the TV do to you, Brigid?"

"I... that... Brigid?" she asks, looking down at her hands again, then reaching up to take off her (pointless) glasses to look at them. "Oh my god! I'm not back to normal. I'm Brigid!" She looks back at Theresa. "Just... not really. It's me. Kay. I think something really weird happened..."

"Okay, I realize we haven't been hanging out with you as much, but that's no reason to fool with me like this," Theresa said, eyeing 'Brigid'.

"I'm not messing with you, Ree. I was in my room a couple minutes ago and suddenly I blink and I'm here on the couch and everything's weird."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Wed May 01, 2013 10:47 am

"The story's a bit weak, Brigid. How long have you been working on it?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:01 am

"What. The. HELL?" Came Kay's muffled voice from upstairs.

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:04 am

"I'm not making this up, I swear! Couple days ago we were sitting out by the point. You were talking about how you're getting better at seeing patterns and stuff in the weather and we bitched about Cal and internet trolls."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:08 am

Theresa looked up towards the muffled shout and then back at 'Brigid'. "So Kay told you about that? You'll pardon me if I'm not finding it very funny."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:10 am

Stumbling, awkward footsteps started descending.

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:16 am

"No of course I didn't tell her about it. Look I know how crazy this sounds it's... I mean I don't know... And I didn't mean to break the TV and I don't know what's happening but it's really me." she says, starting to freak out for real now, tears welling up in her eyes.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:19 am

What looked like Kay stepped into the doorway of the common room and just stared at 'Brigid' for a few seconds.

"You... but I... but you..."

by **Theresa McMasters** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:29 am

Theresa looked between them for a moment, "Okay, guys, I know I've been busy and stuff, but this has gone far enough." She did sound a little less convinced that this was a joke though.

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:31 am

"Brigid? Is that you?" she sniffs, looking up at, well, herself. It's more than just a little weird because it feels nothing at all like looking in a mirror.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:33 am

"How... how did you... Kay?"

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:35 am

"I don't know. Would you please tell Theresa that this is not some kind of joke?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:36 am

"Does this look like it's a joke? What the hell?"

by **Theresa McMasters** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:47 am

Theresa wasn't sure how to react, torn between the natural explanation that her friends were pulling her leg for being so busy lately and the far-fetched explanation that they had somehow switched bodies. The end result was that she just stood there, looking between the two of them.

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 11:50 am

""Ree I swear we're not messing with you! It's not even funny. Just... freaky."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 12:24 pm

"How did this even happen?"

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 1:27 pm

"I don't know, I was just in my room and suddenly, bam, I'm here and throwing the remote at the TV."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 1:41 pm

"Which is where I was, before I ended up in your room..."

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 1:49 pm

God, is that really how I sound?

"So, uhm, what now? Is this a power mishap? Someone messing with us? Ooh if this is Haley..." she punches her palm.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:05 pm

"Even at her bitchiest, I don't think Haley's capable of something like that."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:14 pm

"Hey uhm... if you've got my powers you... really don't want to do anything like that."

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:16 pm

"Y-yeah, you're probably right..." she says, glancing at the ruined TV.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:27 pm

God, this sucks. Did it really have to be my girlfriend and one of my best friends that got switched? Gotta handle this carefully.

"Umm... so..."

Smooth.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:30 pm

"We should probably find a teacher..."

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:36 pm

"Yeah, they'll get this fixed, whatever it is."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:38 pm

"Better if we go as a group. Just... try not to touch things too much."

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:41 pm

"It just caught me off-guard..." she mumbles.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:43 pm

"I should probably stay put. I'm definitely me, or at least I'm pretty sure I'm me, and I don't want to add to the chaos."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:44 pm

"I'm not blaming you, trust me. Just... be careful."

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 2:57 pm

"If you're sure..." she says to Theresa. "I'll drop by later then, okay?"

by **Theresa McMasters** » Wed May 01, 2013 3:00 pm

"Hopefully whatever it is isn't contagious."

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 3:01 pm

"...how could it be?"

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed May 01, 2013 3:09 pm

"Gee I dunno. How did we swap bodies all of a sudden?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed May 01, 2013 4:01 pm

"Well... you wouldn't be doing anything where being contagious would be an issue anyway."

by **Alex Carpenter** » Thu May 02, 2013 4:45 am

"...Out of my WAY you assholes!"

THere was a commotion down the hall, then something came into the room... that they absolutely couldn't see. "What the hell's going on?" 'Aisha' sounded... rather freaked out. Probably more than either of the other girls.
