3rd moon [written/action]

[The message in the journal is short, sweet, and to the point.]

I have breasts, and I have birds. May I please receive an explanation for this?

[Whether or not he receives one, Cecil will soon leave the house to visit the weapon shop. Then, spear in hand, ravens at his side, he'll patrol the village looking for either people he knows or terribly bloody battles. He's not very picky about it.]

[[ooc: Cecil is now a valkyrie! ...A relatively modern valkyrie, in fact. considering some of his powers. Comments will come from lunarvalkyrie .]]

[He stretches his limbs slowly.]

At least I know about it, now. I'll be able to practice later, once I'm used to the feathers.

[She nods, looking him over.]

Better that you found out now, anyway, and not in a situation where you'd be even more frazzled.

True. I could have fallen from much higher, or on top of a carnivorous animal.

...right.

[Not wanting to think about that too much.]

But you have a point, practice is a good idea.

I can use that ability to explore places I normally could not reach, too.

You really need to see the mountains from the air. It's breathtaking.

I should go fly over the ocean, too. It must be absolutely lovely.

Oh, it is. Kain took me there on dragonback.

[A fond smile, remembering.]

On dragonback? Did he find a dragon, or was he the dragon?

He was the dragon. It was another experiment--possibly his favorite one.

What else did people transform into, at that time?

I turned into Mist Dragon, Ceodore turned into Selphie...basically people turned into things or people or creatures that they liked.

That sounds like a nice experiment, at least. Though having two Selphies in the house must have been strange.

Oh, it was--and Selphie hated it, but I'd recommend against bringing that up in front of her.

[Ceodore had earned enough of her scorn, after all.]

Alright, I'll not mention it. I suppose seeing your exact copy could be somewhat alarming.

[Especially if your significant other was groping it, but she's not going to open up that can of worms by saying so.]

No kidding.

...maybe I should stay out of the house for a while. If I turn into anything huge, I don't want to destroy it.

You might also want to avoid overly crowded spaces, just in case. A sudden transformation could cause a panic.

[She sighs.]

Maybe Kain and I should have made that trip to the mountains, after all.

I suspect that would have its disadvantages, too.

[Rydia nods, a wry smile on her lips.]

It would...and besides, it wouldn't be right to just leave, in case you needed our help.

For all I know, I'll suddenly become a fish in my sleep. Your presence at such a time would be very helpful.

[A pause.]

...Would they truly transform people into fish and leave them on the ground?

[She wrinkles her nose.]

They might, but I doubt it. As annoying as their experiments are, we're not usually in any danger from them.

...'Usually'?

[And she gives into pacing, raking a hand through her hair.]

Sometimes harm does come, but it's usually of the indirect sort. Like, one time I was teleported to the middle of the lake...in November. If Golbez hadn't found me, I might have drowned or frozen before I ever reached home.

[Cecil freezes in place when he hears that.]

You almost... Could you not warp yourself home? How did he manage to find you?
