The winds of change~~

[shnpc]

WHO: Everyone!
TONE: Anything from fun to serious
RATING: PG-13+
WHEN: 20th - 23rd April
WHERE: All around the school
WHAT: Canon selves event! A seance gone awry has had its effect on the school, bringing about mental and physical changes to students and staff alike! Full details of the combinations of effects can be found here.
STATUS: Ongoing! Use whichever style you like.

[Spring brings change, but that change isn't always a good thing! Whether your character has changed entirely into their canon self, or only in part, please keep in mind that whatever they know/learn of their original canon during this event will be unable to be clearly recalled - disappearing with their past self - when the event is over. This is to avoid fourth-walling after the conclusion of the event.

Please also keep in mind that some people will not want to fourth-wall during the event! Make sure it's alright with the other player before you decide to do that. Above all, though, have fun!]

[She held on tightly to the scissors, and put them away in an inside pocket of her robe.

Meulin wasn't surprised that he didn't take her hand, but she had to at least try. Now came the predicament of figuring out how to restrain him without actually casting any spells directly on him. He was clearly looking around for something--like another sharp object, or maybe even a weapon.

Desperate, Meulin went for the next thing to pop into her panicking mind.]

Avis!

[Tiny, silvery birds popped out of her wand to flutter about her, seeming to be made more of light than any actual substance. She pointed the wand at Kurloz and they flew at him, all of them trying to goad him back towards the bed.]

[innocent_insanity]

[He's ready to lunge at her when he sees the wand flashing-

But then the silvery twitter beasts appear. Kurloz stares at the birds and swats at them with his hands, trying to get them to go away, inadvertently backing away towards the other bed.]

[hearnoevil]

[The birds darted about his hands, most of them managing to dodge him. One let out a small squeak when a hand came in contact with it and evaporated.

Okay. This was surprisingly working, for the most part, which meant she just needed to keep her calm. He was close to the bed now which meant she just needed to find something to restrain him.

Her eyes darted around the room, but nothing seemed to pop out at her. She didn't exactly have the luxury of taking her time and slowly looking. Her eyes landed on the bed closest to her and she grabbed at the sheet, hurridly using her wand and the severing charm to rip two thick, long strips.]

[innocent_insanity]

[As soon as he hears the ripping he turns his attention back on Meulin, eyes narrowing dangerously when he sees the torn sheet. Suddenly the birds don't matter and if she doesn't do something quick, Kurloz might just attack Meulin.]

[hearnoevil]

[She'd only been halfway through tearing the second strip when she sees that Kurloz is no longer concerned about the birds. They flutter about him, still trying to edge him away but she can see it's not going to work.

She's getting clumsier with her motions, having trouble thinking under such pressure. It was always so easy in class, because a part of her knew that no matter what the teacher was right there to intervene if needed. Here if she failed, both she and Kurloz would end up getting hurt. Meulin tries to back away, pulling the sheet along with her. Her original plan wasn't going to work which meant really, the sheet was useless. She didn't know why she was pulling it along. She dropped it and raised her wand. She didn't have a choice. She had to knock him out. If she didn't, not only would he possibly hurt both of them, but when he came to he'd never stop beating himself up over it. That was that thought that finally made her steel herself.]

Kurloz. Stop it. I'm trying to help you and if you try anything I'll have to take drastic measure. [She knew he couldn't understand her, but hopefully he could read the warning in her tone. She hated to have to do it but if he attacked, she'd finally have to fall back on stupefy.]

[innocent_insanity]

[He bares his teeth when she holds the wand up, knowing far too well that it can do things to him. He crouches, ready to pounce at her.]
