shapeshift 004 [voice/action to Morgana]

[forsakeprophecy]

[If Teddy doesn't sound so good when the feed comes on, it's because he really isn't. Trying to shapeshift out of the handcuffs was not a good idea, nor was trying to break them using super strength. In fact trying to do anything had just been bad and now he was seriously feeling the effects. Either his healing factor wasn't working, or the poison

[ Okay so he's in handcuffs as well, and that's the reason why his face is looking so annoyed. But that's kind of not the point here. ]

Did you say birthday party?

[forsakeprophecy]

[voice]

[He doesn't switch the video feature on because he's finding it hard to keep his shape, and the less people who know he's a shapeshifting super-hero, the better.]

Right. Are you a friend of Laura's? She said she didn't know-- [He breaks off to cough and groan, speaking again, but a bit hoarsely...] --when her birthday was, so we decided on a date! I thought it would be... nice.

[ex_julianhe]

[ He wouldn't care about shapeshifting anyway. Besides, he's looking distracted. The poison's taking a toll on him which he's mostly trying to ignore without any success. ]

...yeah. I'm a friend of hers, I'm Julian.

But I didn't know-- [ no not going there. ]

What date did you decide on?

[forsakeprophecy]

[Sure, but Teddy isn't so cool with everyone knowing his secret superhero identity! Sorry!]

Oh, she mentioned you! Vic did too. Said I should get in touch with you about it.. Poison Handcuffs kinda got in the way though.

[He chuckles softly, though it's cut off by a pained groan.] January 13. I guess we'll have to have it when we figure this out though...

[ex_julianhe]

Can't say the same. [ Not that it bothers him that neither of them told him about this guy, but whatever. ]

If we can get it to a point where we aren't all dying, I'm down for a party. What did you have in mind?

[forsakeprophecy]

Well, I think I'd be worried if everyone was talking about me!

[Okay, wow. It's a little scary hearing someone say it out loud. He doesn't want to believe that he's dying because he's damn scared to die. He's silent for a moment.] I dunno. I guess just... find somewhere and put some decorations up? Try and make a cake or something... I'm sure I'd have better ideas if I wasn't... [Dying.] Sick.

[ex_julianhe]

[ It's probably telling that Julian's been in this situation so recently that the only thing he's feeling about it is anger. ]

I don't even know where the hell's available here, but we holed up in a bar. Guess that could work.

[ Pause. ] So I figure you and whoever you're chained to ain't found a way out of this crap yet. Least I'm not the only one.

[forsakeprophecy]

Oh, the bar would be gr-- [He pauses for a long moment as a wave of nausea almost knocks him out.] Great. We'd need to get Laura out to set the place up... so it's a surprise.

No, we haven't. Something to do with working together, though...

[ex_julianhe]

Getting her out won't be a problem. [ She's out half the time anyway. ]

I got that text too. Working together, but they don't put a goal out there. Could be anything from sex to sacrifice and they talk in riddles.

[forsakeprophecy]

Oh, good.

Heh, yeah, it really could be. I hope not. I think for now we should try-- [A pause to think through the haze.] Try anything that comes to mind.

[ex_julianhe]

I'm not thinking either sex or sacrifice are gonna happen in my case. [ Not that he'd hate the former. He didn't think Tsunade would be on board though. ]

What're you trying?

[forsakeprophecy]

Yeah uh... not here either. [Because women.]

We haven't tried anything yet. But we'll try-- We'll try whatever we can think of...

[ex_julianhe]

Yeah, well I'm open to suggestions. The whole poison deal aint as fun as it looks.

[forsakeprophecy]

I can barely think straight enough to come up with something myself. Sorry...

[ex_julianhe]

Keep your head up. We'll work it out, or someone else will. I'm sure as hell not letting death by furry handcuffs get carved on my tombstone.
