[ well i guess hak is a woerm now

the candelabra (I SPELLED IT RIGHT THIS TIME) drops to the ground with a dull thud. the Man Formerly Known as (Son) Hak vanishes. if their collective group gathers close and peers down, they might see a little worm wriggling on the ground. yippee!


i'm not making a worm icon though you will have to use your imaginations ]

[isdf]

[He nods, then steps toward Mafuyu to assist her when the series of unexpected noises draws his attention. The candelabra lies on the ground, and Hak is nowhere to be seen while Melinoe is already exiting the scene.]

Wha . . . !

[Mafuyu is standing all right for now, so Yuma kneels down to inspect the ground.]

Is that . . . a worm?

[depressured]

Yes.

[ She also... crouches down.

And reaches out to scoop up the worm. Without fear or disgust. Hi, buddy. ]

I think it's Hak.

[handfast]

[ mafuyu his savior 🥺

the worm wiggles pathetically in her palm. ]

[isdf]

[He would have found it stranger if she was repulsed by the worm, so as far as he knows she's being completely rational here.]

Was it Melinoe's doing?

[depressured]

This coinciding with her departure seems to be the case.

... I might need your help, still, but I can carry him.

[ He weighs nothing. ]

[handfast]

[ that's very sweet of mafuyu but unfortunately the worm has other plans and is on the move, inching (wiggling? crawling???) in the direction melinoe left in.

it has worm-y revenge to enact. ]

[isdf]

[The worm can only go so far.]

If it is a curse, it should wear off over time. If not, I will speak with her about reverting him back to normal.

[Yuma stands up with a nod.]

Let us return to the estate. Are you ready?

[With her permission, he'll hoist her up into a princess carry as before.]

[depressured]

Yes. Let's go.

[ With the worm.

Who did not get very far. Sorry, Hak. ]

[handfast]

[ no!!!! he won't be stifled!!!!!!!!! do his exceptional human reflexes carry over to him being a worm, the dice said get fucked so i guess his attempt to backflip out of mafuyu's hand results in disaster (read: him moving another inch) ]

[isdf]

[With Mafuyu, the worm, and the candelabra that he makes sure to pick up before they depart, Yuma assumes a brisk pace in the direction of the estate. He very quickly realizes that this does nothing for the alien sensation where his own skin feels wrong on him, but contains the restlessness within his methodical march as he maintains a superficial smile the whole way.

It's therefore for the best that Hak doesn't fall out of Mafuyu's palm, lest he risk getting squashed.]
