Elf - [Action/Voice]

[bamfing]

[Having already determined the village is full of people in the wrong shapes, Kurt wasn't all that surprised to find himself in a new body. Sure, the five fully functional fingers was new. And walking without his tail as a counterbalance was just surreal. And how on earth did people walk on their heels. No, really, the fact that really shocked him was that his entire body was monochrome. Sure, maybe his favorite actor had always been in black and white movies, but this was just... a little odd.

Nevertheless, he decides to set out and make good use of his new form. Particularly, of course, by going out and charming women with his oh-so-obviously attractive new (old) features. So if you're a pretty girl (and hopefully not too young), you'll have his attention. Or if you're just someone he knows, he'll want to show off. Later on, while having a drink (non-alcoholic!) at Good Spirit, he'll make a voice message.]

So did anyone else actually turn into something cool during this experiment?

((Replies from monochromehero. Yes, he's now Errol Flynn. 4th wall that as you will.))

Oh! [She gets it now! Sort of.] Does it feel weird?

[monochromehero.livejournal.com]

Totally! But not as weird as having no tail. I used to wonder how you guys managed it!

[markofthebrave]

[Actually peering a little around him now to see - yup, no tail.]

Huh. So who is this guy they made you look like?

[monochromehero.livejournal.com]

Errol Flynn, a famous actor. He used to star in a lot of black and white movies. Which is why.... yeah. [Clearly Kurt should have watched more stuff in color.]

[markofthebrave]

Movies? ...Oh! Those are those talking pictures, right? I've heard about them.

[She.. still doesn't get why you turned into an actor, but whatever.]

[monochromehero.livejournal.com]

Exactly! I guess you could say this guy was kind of like a hero to me, even if it was just acting...

[markofthebrave]

...why?

['cause he seemed kind of like a jerk to her.]

[monochromehero.livejournal.com]

Why? Because he's totally cool! He's the hero in every movie. Swordfighting, rescuing the girl, defeating the bad guy. And he does it with style!

[markofthebrave]

Oh. [Slow blink.] I guess that is kind of cool.

[monochromehero.livejournal.com]

Yeah, anyway... you haven't turned into anything, yeah? [He figures that's lucky, given what he picked up on yesterday.]

[markofthebrave]

Mine has the hiccups. [She shrugs.] It comes and goes.

[monochromehero.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah? Who are you turning into?

[markofthebrave]

It's... not really as much of a who as it is a what...

[Are you really going to make her say it?]

[monochromehero.livejournal.com]

... like a pet?

[markofthebrave]

[She reaches up to touch her necklace.]

...like my village. A model of it, anyway.

[monochromehero.livejournal.com]

Wow... that's totally whack! But it beats turning into food, yeah?

[Cuz he's heard of that happening so far, ya know.]

[markofthebrave]

[A wry laugh.]

Yeah, I guess so. That happened to another one of my friends, but - at least he won't melt?

[monochromehero.livejournal.com]

Yeah? What did he turn into?

[markofthebrave]

[She doesn't think Chouji'd mind... it's not like he didn't make a journal post like that or anything.]

A bag of chips.

Oh hello dropped thread

[monochromehero.livejournal.com]

A... a bag of chips?

[Okay, he joked about people turning into Jell-O, but chips?]
