[ Written in the same impeccable cursive as usual, but a bit larger. ]The Wilderness changed; it did not have dragons yesterday, because I was there and would definitely have noticed that. Relatedly, it seems kind of dangerous down there

It is rather dangerous. Be careful if you are still down there.

[conductmyself]

I'm not, but I might go back. At this point, my desire to explore is outweighed by my desire not to get eaten and the possibility that this Wilderness might not last, either.

Has it ever done this before? Changed so quickly, I mean.

[spandexisyouth]

No. Not in the nearly year and a half that I have been here.

[conductmyself]

How curious.

[inthecenterfold]

You're taller? Like... a different body? That happened to me once but- [shudder]

[conductmyself]

Well, I still look like myself, just... older.

[inthecenterfold]

That's so weird - I thought people were getting younger all over the place.

[conductmyself]

Well, I guess the Sphere figured that I didn't have much younger to get.

[bal_daisy]

Dragons?

[conductmyself]

Very large, lizard-like creatures.

[bal_daisy]

If I was bigger I'd go see.

[conductmyself]

How small are you?

[ When Flame wakes up, she feels heavy somehow, and off-kilter. She yawns and pulls the neck of her shirt up from where it's slid down her shoulder. Oddly, it just slips again. There's something... really weird about this. She sits up -- is everything bigger? When she slips to the floor, she stumbles, falling on her knees, and that's when she notices how small her hands are.

No. Everything isn't bigger. She's smaller.

She can't help but let out a shriek of surprise, rather higher-pitched than usual. ]

Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!

[ Shut up, Flame. No one cares that you're suddenly ten years old. Some of us have more important things to do, like sleep. ]

[ Okay, actually, we do care because we just asked ourselves the question of what a little girl is doing in our bedroom and why she is screaming. These two things in conjunction are never good.

Cephiro sits bolt-upright in bed, not exactly wide awake but doing a good impression of it. Flame doesn't appear to be here, but, yes, there is this disturbed-looking little girl.

Oh, and his body would like him to know, as an aside, that he's a lot bigger. Just in case he decides to move or something and this becomes important. Also that he's not wearing pants, because he must have kicked them off at some point during the night when they became way too tight. ]

Who...?

[pre_pharle]

Cephiro --

[ She scrambles onto her butt and stares across the room. After a moment's hesitation, pulling at her shirt again, she asks suspiciously: ]

Who are you?

[conductmyself]

[ People seriously need to not ask existential questions first thing in the morning. ]

I think I was Cephiro when I went to bed last night.
