Feathered Edge - [Accidental Video/Action]

[wanderer_jack]

[The day had seemed as if it would be normal, just another dawn to awaken to and yet another day in Luceti to face. That was until the samurai woke up and noticed something was very, very wrong.]

[VIDEO]:

[The sound is garbled with clattering and motion as the journal is knocked to the floor, falling open just enough to get a distorted view of

[If he hadn't seen Elicia turn into a kitten, this would be more startling for the chef.

But still. The guy's acting like a chicken with his-- we're gonna stop that thought right there]

Hate to break it to ya, but that's not a curse you can get rid of for a while.

[The view flips over to looking straight up to the ceiling after a bit of struggle on the owner's part. A chicken face with a topknot peers down at the video screen.]

What?! This cannot be! Wait...who are you? [The chicken rubs a wing underneath its chin in thought.]

[Video]

[oda_hates_me]

Sanji. We haven't met.

[You are a funny looking chicken, man]

You got hit with an experiment.

[Video]

[wanderer_jack]

Yet another one? [He sighed deeply, an odd gesture coming from a chicken.] These seem to grow more troublesome with each one. Whatever the case may be, I thank you for clarifying this for me, Sanji. You may call me Jack. [As if the sigh had not been strange enough, the chicken proceeded to bow towards the video screen with wings folded together like hands in front of him.]

[And he's a polite chicken.

The chef in Sanji can't get over this crazy shit.]

... Don't mention it, Jack. [And the gesture is one he's familiar with, that Sanji returns it. Another thing to cross off his list of shit he'd never do back home.]

You got someone to look after you for now?

[Video]

[wanderer_jack]

Well, I hope so. They said they would be arriving as soon as possible. I've been trying to construct a structure so that I might unlock the door. It has proven most difficult due to my lack of hands.

[Video]

[oda_hates_me]

That would be a shitty problem.... you got any string? Or maybe you can kick the lock...

[Video]

[wanderer_jack]

Hmm, yes. Perhaps my strength has not been affected too deeply by this form. I shall try that.

[The chicken moved out of sight of the journal, and a running scramble of bird feet could be heard. A loud crash sounded followed by a very surprised squawk of a chicken in flight.]

[Video]

[oda_hates_me]

[F-fffff. Sanji winces than does his best to cover up a swell of laughter, clearing his throat]

Uh, Jack? You alright?

[Video]

[wanderer_jack]

[The chicken stumbled back into view, one wing rubbing its head gingerly.] Yes, I am fine. It appears this form has affected my abilities. The door did not even budge from my attempt.

[Video]

[oda_hates_me]

Then sounds like you're stuck there until help arrives.

[Tough luck]

[Video]

[wanderer_jack]

I must manage until then. Hmm, perhaps if I cannot unlock the door via force... [The journal shifted around and the shuffling of chair legs is audible. Barely visible is a chair being pushed along the floor, the feathery topknot of the chicken just slightly in view at the bottom of the frame.]

[Video]

[oda_hates_me]

A chair? Should've thought of that before.

[He's fine with waiting to hear if Jack succeeds, since at this point he can't go off and leave on a clear conscience]

[Video]

[wanderer_jack]

[A chicken-shaped blur runs by, a crash sounding from just off-screen when several pots and pans come rolling by. The samurai chicken trots by once more towards the door, several eating utensils tucked under his wings.]

[Video]

[oda_hates_me]

[...

Yeah, Sanji's got nothing]

Uh.... Jack?

[Video]

[wanderer_jack]

[Chicken Jack peered back into view, a coil of yarn in his beak.] Yeth, Sanhi?
