Uh-oh. [Action | Training Center]

[gunblade_grrl]

[There's a problem in the Training Center.]

[That problem is a dragon. Specifically, one that is stuck. Its head is in the Training Center proper, its body in the Secret Area, and its neck is in the passage between the two, which its head is simply too large to transit

[Yukio had been minding his own business in the training center, but considering the fact that there is now a screaming dragon, he can't help but go to investigate. Treading carefully, he edges toward the burnt out vegetation and then peers at what appears to be a stuck dragon.]

Excuse me, but could you stop yelling and tell me what happened?

[spareglasses]

[Yukio hurries over to the passageway between the training center and the secret area, a smile spreading across his features as he did so. Admittedly, it had been a bit... bizarre suddenly seeing her change like that, but if it worked, all the better!

In any case, he cups his mouth and yells at Maria.]

Congratulations!

[Oh, good news: her clothes and equipment had changed with her, and changed back with her. So she wasn't awkwardly naked in the middle of the floor.]

[She picks herself up, then looks herself over -- then practically jumps to her feet with a cry of delight.]

I'm human again!

[spareglasses]

[Now having enough time to walk over, Yukio gives Maria a smile.]

Well, at least you know how to solve that problem now. Of course, I hope it doesn't happen to you again in the first place.

[gunblade_grrl]

But why did it even happen to begin with....

[spareglasses]

[Yukio doesn't really have any answer to offer her--nothing solid at least.]

I can only assume time compression is somehow involved.

[gunblade_grrl]

But I'm from this world! I don't have any strange powers or -- or anything, I'm just a normal human girl...

[spareglasses]

Did you lose anything at all recently? Or do you feel any different?

[gunblade_grrl]

Lose anything? No...

[Though she'd lost the ability to Junction, she actually hadn't realized that yet! Without extra abilities or even Junctioned magic, she just hadn't noticed the loss.]

[spareglasses]

[Looking mildly frustrated, Yukio shakes his head.]

I suppose all I can say is be careful then.

[gunblade_grrl]

I will be. Thank you very, very much for your help.

[She punctuates her gratitude with a salute.]

[spareglasses]

[He returns the gesture and gives her a smile.]

Not at all.
