17 blueprints -- Dictated/Upsidedown Action!

[teds_up]

[Did you know? Drinking while you're upside-down is difficult!

But Ted, why are you upside down?

Well, Ted's been granted another loss. Lucky him. This time, however, his species has been unchanged. And Ted is kind of wishing that weren't the case, because having gravity flipped for him is rather disorienting and terribly inconvenient.

Thankfully,

[Rookie was doing his usual thing of heading down to the kitchen for a snack, minding his own business as usual.

Until hearing Ted's voice out of no where. So there's a pause in his movements before he begins to glance around.]

... Architect? That you?

[teds_up]

Yo, Rook. Look up.

[He holds out his cup of coffee in greeting, which he's holding upside-down to accommodate for his new position. It is, of course, right-side up to Rookie.]

[odst_mute]

... Ted?

[Woah wait. What the fawk?]

Why are you on the ceiling?

[teds_up]

You get three guesses, and the first two don't count.

[odst_mute]

[Yeah, he's just going to go ahead and start laughing now. Don't mind him.]

Do you - [Rsdfslfj can't stop chuckling oh gawd.] - Do you want some help?

[teds_up]

Considering what this is, do you think you'll be able to?

Though, by all means, go ahead and try.

[odst_mute]

[Just grins up at him.]

Could always get some buddies of mine together and tape you to the floor.

[He's joking.

Mostly.]

[teds_up]

That might work, except then I wouldn't actually be able to go anywhere.

...Which would kind of defeat the entire purpose.

[odst_mute]

Good point.

[Going to go ahead and grab a chair, before using that to hop up onto one of the counters. Mostly because he was getting tired of staring up at Ted.]

Though I wasn't really going for practicality. [Laughs.] Just saying I'd have no trouble taping you to the floor if you got tired of it.

[teds_up]

I like how you decided that it's okay to stand on the countertops because of my loss. C'mon, dude, people eat on there.

[odst_mute]

[Shrugs. It's cool, bro, he'll clean up after himself.

Though there is another reason he got up here, given Rookie was sort of peering around Ted from where he was standing to see if there was any secret to this loss.]

I'm still surprised the castle has the ability to do stuff like this. [Folding his arms.] Much less, how you're not getting a headache from staying like that.

[teds_up]

[There certainly doesn't seem to be anything physically attaching him to the ceiling...]

Eh. It's different. Personally, I think the whole getting turned into animals losses are a lot weirder. I actually met a leopard in this kitchen once. . .

[odst_mute]

[Seeing that only gets him to lean away from Ted with a sigh, shaking his head. Can't blame him for trying to make sense out of things every once in awhile.

Though he does give a knowing look towards the architect above him.]

You mean the 'crazy cat'?

[teds_up]

Yeah. Big, white one. I didn't know about animal losses at the time, so I was, uh. Very, very uncomfortable. Quite honestly, after it left me alone, I was surprised I still had all my limbs.

[odst_mute]

Huh. Really? [Chuckles, raising a hand to gesture to himself innocently.] And here I was thinking I did a good job pulling off that harmless house cat routine.
