She hadn't been feeling herself...

When Midna came to, stuck in the rafters above the Sanctuary forum in the Nexus, she had no idea what had been going on. She was dirty, splattered with fluids and crusted with dirt. She reeked. Her hair came down in tarnished, greasy gold rivulets. She was curled on a dish-shaped platform veined with glowing pink designs that she recognized as her own glyph-scrawl. She'd made this sometime during the blackout. But what the hell HAPPENED to her?

She crawled to the edge of the dish. People were talking animatedly below, seated, standing, pouring drinks at the bar and, two playing a game of go in the corner.

With a strange mix of awkwardness, fear and concern she was received down below, but didn't stay long enough to explain and made straight for the siderooms. She wrenched on the cold water in the adjoining shower, stripped of her clothes and closed the shower door behind her.

It must have been an LOL. She'd never seen one that caused blackouts before... the idea of her losing control chilled her even more than the water. All she remembered was wandering into the Sanctuary and being told that there was some kind of de-evolution virus going around. She remembered the terror of realizing it had taken a hold of her but then... nothing. What had she done? What did she turn into?!

The shower will stay on for a long time. She is so preoccupied, however, that she's even forgotten to lock the sideroom door; and of course portals can open in from anywhere. Anyone can come in, whether concerned or simply unaware she's even in here.

open, lol
