Day 268 — Body Swap Mingle
[You know the phrase about waking up on the wrong side of the bed? Well, today you wake up exactly where you planned to, just not how you planned to. Taller, blonder, now with dangerous and unpredictable powers? So maybe the phrase about not feeling comfortable in your own skin applies more today. After all, it's not exactly your skin is it?]

(OOC: Use this mingle to run into people anywhere in the dome. Body swap info.)

[When they get to the mirror, his immediate impression of his borrowed body is that this Cam guy has stupid hair. Seriously, the sideburns alone are just ridiculous. And his skin seems a little...bluer than you'd expect. Still, it doesn't go a long way in explaining exactly who this guy is.]

Covered in ice? I don't--

[Uh-oh. Someone finally gets who "Cam" might be. And while he's trying to remain as calm as he can under the circumstances, she might notice that the temperature in the room has taken a sudden nosedive.]

You mean...I'm stuck in the body of that Vanilla Ice reject? [Not that he's had any encounters with Icicle Jr. himself but the insult seems to fit.]

	Yeah. Icicle Jr. [After a beat.] And he's not really that bad... For a bad guy. Uh...Wally? [Is that her breath in front of her being all visible?] I think I'm really glad you don't have heat powers right now. [Since M'gann's weakness for fire is her weakness now. The cold isn't so bad.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He's now more than a little curious about her friendship with Icicle Jr. after she defends him—sort of anyway—but thinks now isn't the best time to ask her about it. Especially since it's possible she could hear his thoughts at the moment.]

Huh? [He notices her visible breath.] Oh, right. [He takes a few deep breathes in an attempt to relax himself, and the temperature eventually returns to almost normal. Not that he can tell.] Better?

[She was willing to knock him around when she thought he was behind this though. Points for that?]

Yeah. Better.

[She doesn't want to be in the bathroom anymore. Partially because it's just not the best, social funzone, but also because this looking at the mirror and not seeing yourself thing is very, very weird. So she steps out, expecting Wally will follow.]

I guess the good part about being in M'gann's body is that I can just shapeshift to look like me, right? [Form of Artemis?]

[He'll give her a point and a half for that.]

I really hope this is a one day thing.

[Because, yeah, everything about this is weird. And like the good boyfriend that he is, he does what she expects and follows her out of the bathroom.]

Yeah, you've basically won the body swap lottery. [Though he's not sure how difficult the whole shapeshifting thing is.] So what do you think happened to our bodies?

	greenerarrow 2014-04-23 03:05 am UTC (link)
	I kind of thought maybe M'gann had mine, but Cam's not even here. [She closes her eyes. This shapeshifting thing can't be too hard, right? M'gann's body probably knows what to do. She'll just concentrate on looking like herself. And shape shift she does! Into a white martian.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2014-04-23 03:40 am UTC (link)
	[He flinches a little when she switches into a white martian. Not that he was freaked out or anything because he's seen M'gann in that form once or twice before. He was just expecting more Artemis and less white martian, okay.] Uh, babe? [He rubs the back of his head as he looks up at her.] You might want to try whatever it is you just did again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2014-04-23 03:52 am UTC (link)
	[Trying not to freak out here. How do white martians take calming breaths? Actually, how do they talk?] I didn't mean to do that! [Mentally of course. And maybe a little too loudly as she does it because she doesn't have the hang of this and she doesn't know what to do with this body.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2014-04-24 02:12 am UTC (link)
	[Holding his head in a hand now, because ow, that was loud.] I kinda figured. [He'll stick with the mental talk.] Can you change back? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm trying! It's not as easy as she makes it look!

[His head isn't the only one starting to hurt. Where did all these other sounds come from? So much chatter in neighboring apartments she can't make anything out.

She takes a few steps back as if that will help get her away from the mental noise, but it mostly just makes her hit and break the light above her. She is really tall as a white martian.]

	fastonhisfeet 2014-04-24 02:48 am UTC (link)
	Well, she's had a lot of...watch out! [Too late. There goes the light. He takes a few tentative steps towards her to make sure she didn't hurt herself.] ...You okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2014-04-24 03:12 am UTC (link)
	No! I'm not okay! I want my body back! [She sinks down to the floor crossing the long arms over herself and managing to miss the broken glass.] I don't know anything about having powers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2014-04-24 03:59 am UTC (link)
	...Right, stupid question. [She does appear to be physically okay after her encounter with the light, though.] That's because you're so awesome that you don't need them. [A little smile before he makes his way around the glass to sit beside her.] Hey. Everything will be all right. We just need to find M'gann. She'll know what to do. [He hopes.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[In this body she can definitely see why M'gann was worried about telling them. It's not like she'd ever not want her on the team because of it, but sitting next to her boyfriend? Definitely not feeling at her best. Of course it's also really strange to think of Cam as her boyfriend. Not that it's actually Cam or anything.]

Think I can just click my heals together and say there's no place like home?

[She's still hearing the drone of thoughts, unsure how to block them out or even focus on one enough to hear it.]

	fastonhisfeet 2014-04-25 03:09 am UTC (link)
	Well, I think I might have a pair of ruby slippers in my closet if you want to give it a shot. [It's a weak joke. He has a habit of making them when he isn't sure what to say or do. Or in this case, when there's nothing that can be done.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2014-04-25 03:40 am UTC (link)
	Why am I not sure if you're joking? [She would lean her head against him, but under the circumstances... She closes her eyes tightly and manages to shift back. She doesn't become Artemis-shaped like she originally hoped but right now green M'gann is pretty close to perfect.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2014-04-26 02:04 am UTC (link)
	You could always-- Hey! You're green again! [Nothing gets by this guy.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2014-04-26 03:14 am UTC (link)
	Still not exactly my color. [But she's more comfortable like this. The apartment isn't really built for white martian anatomy.] But I'll take it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2014-04-26 04:00 am UTC (link)
	[He slips an arm around her back.] I bet the lights will take it too. [Is it too soon to tease her about that?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2014-04-26 03:55 pm UTC (link)
	[She leans in against him.] ...This is weird. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2014-04-28 02:40 am UTC (link)
	...Yeah. It's quite the coincidence that we got stuck in these bodies, huh. [Said as if he doesn't think it's any coincidence at all.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2014-04-28 02:43 am UTC (link)
	[That gets a M'gann-faced frown and she sits up again, looking at him.] Why is it a coincidence? [What is happening in your brain, Wally? Does she need to look?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2014-04-28 03:12 am UTC (link)
	[Why is she frowning at him like that?] I'm just saying it's a little strange that out of all the bodies I could've ended up with, I got stuck with your criminal friend here. [And she's stuck in the body of a girl he spent a lot of time flirting with, but he won't mention that. He does think it however.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2014-04-28 03:14 am UTC (link)
	[She heard that.] And just what kind of friend do you think Cam is? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fastonhisfeet 2014-04-28 03:39 am UTC (link)
	I dunno. I was kinda hoping you could tell me. [He knows this shouldn't bother him but it does.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
