Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:01:35 AM)
*hugging the strawberry pie box allll the way to Aislinn's place* Seriously? Audrey called you? You gotta get him a text pad or something.
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:02:52 AM)
::Ais rooms home, looking mildly concerned, tapping fingers on the steering wheel nervously as she cruised home with Cas:: I -think- it was him... the phone dialed, and it was my home number. And I heard rustling leaves... ::she vroomed into her driveway, opening the garage, impatiently tapping the wheel as she waited for it to rise and moving inside the second it did, chewing on her bottom lip::
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:05:23 AM)
*lingers to push the button behind Aislinn and close the garage door, chasing her inside at a jog afterward* Rustling? Okay.. so where is he? *looking around a bit worried*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:06:57 AM)
::she nods:: Like.. moving his leaves. He can't talk.... not... audibly. ::already moving into the house, long legs providing better strides as she moves towards the basement, looking around the house, as she moved, looking for anything out of place or wrong::
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:11:35 AM)
Bet the vines could push buttons... *muttered before calling out* Audrey?! Audreeeey! *heading for the basement door worriedly*
Tohunga (Sep 5, 2010 3:12:41 AM)
As they settle down into the basement, its clouded in a thick mist, slight breezes flicking through it, yet despite that the mist not looking to clear. The plants leaves are lightly slick with dew, the water content in the room high. Everything seems rather alive down here right now though, its heightened, not decreased.
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:13:47 AM)
*isn't going downstairs till Ais is with her, she skids to a halt at the top of the stairs* Aislinn! You got fog in your basement!
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:15:24 AM)
::she flung open the basement door, flipflops left in the foyer as she moves to the basement door:: What? ::looking rather confused, she starts to walk down the stairs carefully, as she began to call softly:: Little ones... everyone's okay? ::frowning, she walks down slowly:: This... is weird. Um... shoes off, Cas.
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:16:27 AM)
Sorry! *yelping and hopping in a circle till she can get her flips off her feet, hammering down the stairs behind Aislinn* Where's Audrey?
Tohunga (Sep 5, 2010 3:16:39 AM)
Everything seems to be okay but Aislinn notices Audrey still working on the phone, he still hasn't figured somethings out it'd seem. The phone is off the hook and they're slowly working at rubbing the number one off its button.
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:19:00 AM)
::she grins, relief all over her face, as she relaxes:: He's okay... I think. ::she moves towards her Audrey, hands already seeking him out, as she slides fingertips up the vines, gently reaching for the phone receiver:: What's going on? What's wrong? ::she grins, watching it try to rub off the '1'... looking at the phone:: Does the number offend you? ::gently teasing her plant::
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:20:00 AM)
*likewise relieved, she smiles broadly* Sheesh.. poor guy. How'd he know your number? Or..how many people did he call before he got ya?
Tohunga (Sep 5, 2010 3:20:31 AM)
The plant pauses, realising shes here and then quickly moving its creepers along the table and she feels it begin its climb up her arm and then stroking along her cheek. "Magic. Strong." Words touching her mind.
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:21:57 AM)
::she grins:: I have no idea... but I feel badly for them... ::she trails off, hanging up the receiver and she caresses the vines softly, brow furrowing a bit:: I can feel it... yes.. How long has the strong magic been here?
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:22:51 AM)
*blinks at Aislinn's words, looking around and letting her senses reach out to see what Ais and Audrey are discussing* ((awareness..opening the DR))
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:23:35 AM)
((Paltry one sux))
Tohunga (Sep 5, 2010 3:24:55 AM)
"Ring. Ring. Ring. One. Yes." Its fronds continuing to stroke Aislinn's cheek as it gets comfort from her company. Cas meanwhile, unbenownest to her, and perhaps likely Aislinn is starting to rise a little from the ground, feet off the torturous ground, becoming damp with dew in the air.
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:25:56 AM)
*wrinkling her nose a bit* This water all from the flood, or you got a leak down here? *rubbing at the cold drips on her cheek*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:27:39 AM)
::she frowns a bit, confused, as she caresses the vines, letting it be soothed as something had bothered it enough to reach her, and she spoke softly, eyes half-closing as she opened her mind a bit more to her familiar:: What rang... the phone rang.... or you rang the phone to get me? ::she shakes her head to Cas:: Doubtful my pipes would leak... and produce fog... and I cleaned up the water from the flood. (also doing awareness)
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:28:55 AM)

Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:29:49 AM)
Okay..that's fair. But seriously, what's with the theatre effects? I'm looking around for Macbeth's witches here.. waiting for the music to cue.
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:30:34 AM)
I don't know... trying to figure that out.. ::focusing as she continues to absently pet her vined friend, letting it be soothed by her presence as she looks around::
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:31:35 AM)
*giggles a little* God Shakespeare's music sucked. You know, they almost never use it in productions. I gotta come down here more often..feel all warm in my chest, like chicken soup and slaphappy at the same time. It like this all the time?
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:32:00 AM)
Um... this.... feels like it did... that night. The flood. ::her eyes dart to Cas:: Um... Cas... stay calm... It can be. For me it is... but um... you're floating....
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:33:57 AM)
Oh please.. I'm not drunk.. *looking back over to Ais with a briefly sober expression* Just saying it's.. oh frick..*noting her point of view and then looking down* What's doing that?
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:34:27 AM)
*her voice a little distant and higher than usual* Not fear, but a bit of shock certainly*
Tohunga (Sep 5, 2010 3:35:26 AM)
As Cas and Aislinn are looking down, Cas' toes and feet are starting to become slightly more hard to see, the mist whirling about them more...
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:37:40 AM)
*reaching over her head to make sure she doesn't bonk her head on the ceiling, she forgets the gesture as she watches her feet, trying to wiggle her toes* Ohhh..kaaaaayy..
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:38:11 AM)
You seem to be... gathering energy, Cas... It's circling around you... don't panic... you're okay... ::she smiles encouragingly to Cas, one hand still caressing along the vined plant, comforting it, she reaches in her bag, taking out some miscolored water, and sipping a bit, and watching Cas... keeping a close eye on her... in case she needs to counter magic something in a hurry::
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:39:11 AM)
::speaking to the vined plant:: When did this start? How did this start?
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:40:14 AM)
*her pulse picking up a bit..she looks from her feet to her friend, trying to trust it. Remembering what Aislinn told her about the flood. She nods slowly* Oh kaay.. ohhhkay.. okay.. *seems stuck there verbally..but she kicks her feet a little, experimentally*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:41:44 AM)
Oh yes... it's very strong, my love... and you did beautifully. You did so well. I'm so proud of you... this was very important. ::she even leaned in, lightly kissing a leaf affectionately, before looking to Cas and she smiles:: You're fine, Cas... you're okay... just... stay calm. Focus... I'm right here...and I'm not going to let anything bad happen.. okay? ::her voice is calm, supportive, and encouraging:: How do you feel?
Tohunga (Sep 5, 2010 3:42:01 AM)
Aislinn and Cas both get to see this flurry of mist about Cas, then Aislinn feeling gusts press against her clothing. The mist starting to grow more saturated about Cas while, it seems to be ebbing about the rest of the room.
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:44:07 AM)
Umm giggly panic? *laughing a bit, her arms out to her sides as if balancing* I'm flying..half-assed, what do you think I feel like?? *clearly excited, she looks as though she'd just finished a marathon and couldn't quite catch her breath*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:45:38 AM)
::Ais blinks and watches, closely, feeling the wind pick up, she glances around the room, making sure there's nothing malignant here to upset her friend, as she grinned:: You look.. like a wingless bird. ::keeping it light as she watched, grinning:: Can you feel it though... You look... like a ... genie..
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:49:44 AM)
*her hands reaching to check her face and shoulders at that phrase* An ostrich? *she laughs a bit more at the genie comment* All I need are see-through PJs! *crosses her arms* Poof! What do you want?! *laughing harder in the euphoria and that razor's edge of hysteria she's walking, waving her arms to try and float around the room*
Tohunga (Sep 5, 2010 3:51:46 AM)
Whats impressive though is that the mist is starting to swirl about Cas' lower body, like a small tornado or cyclone. Her legs and hips disappearing into the mist and Aislinn would be hard pushed to see any of them down below.
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:53:18 AM)
::Ais looks around quickly, making sure all her sharp tools are away, not wanting Cas to plunge down on one unexpectedly, before she grins, tilting her head:: You're... a cyclone genie? ::she giggles a little, her hand wanting to reach into the mist, but not daring to touch Cas' magic, she watches, remaining as calm as she can for the plants and Cas' sake:: Does it hurt at all?
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:54:48 AM)
*reaches up and tugs her hair free of the knot holding it bound, freeing it to float around her head, grinning back down at Aislinn* Nope! Umm. . *blinks and looks at the cyclone* I can't feel my legs. *curiously..rather than as disturbed as she might have been..she opens up her other senses to see if she can detect her legs with prime, focusing her mind reflexively*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:55:25 AM)
::at that... Ais frowns a bit, focusing on Cas to make sure she was alright::
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:56:45 AM)
((7 sux wits meditation, 3 sux primescan at regular diff, not sure if the phenomenal foci and sanctum lower it.))
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 3:58:16 AM)
They're okay... Cas. I'm pretty sure they're okay...
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 3:59:13 AM)
No..they're fine. *smiling happily* They're just clouds. *as if she'd found the TV remote under the sofa*
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:00:45 AM)
Still dunno how to fly though.. *as if she should have figured this out by now, like a kid with a new toy. She tries pushing the wind a bit mentally..curious if it will listen to her*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:04:37 AM)
::she laughs, and shakes her head, grinning, she was pleased, pushing out that vibe to the sanctum, wanting it to help, and she tilts her head:: I've never tried flight... not as a bird.. or other ways...
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:04:47 AM)
*bangs her head against the ceiling, ends up holding her head, somewhat mushed against the surface* Ow.. should have learned to drive.. *pushes off the ceiling with her hands and a moment later she's revolving slowly in the air* Huh..
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:08:54 AM)
*hand-walking overhead to keep from hitting it again* Ohh..frick, sorry! *as the little cyclone blusters at the table of plants*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:10:41 AM)
::she smiles:: It's okay... just concentrate... you're doing fine... ::moving to right the little plants up:: Keep going.. ::she let her toes sink onto the wet floor, pushing out a little with herself::
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:16:00 AM)
*takes a breath and tries to feel the cyclone..instead of her legs. Accepting the substitute and seeking a way to work with it..rather than force it*
Tohunga (Sep 5, 2010 4:17:16 AM)
As Cas focuses more and more upon the cyclone, it tightens its spin, moving that little faster. Slowly but surely shes gaining in ability, but its no longer about stepping with legs ...
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:18:31 AM)
*trying to trust it, she puts her hands down instead of blocking the ceiling/head equation* Right.. Just gotta go with it.. *encourages the spinning..chewing on her lower lip without realizing it, motoring herself along a bit and grinning like a cheshire cat* I did it!! *slamming the ceiling again*
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:18:34 AM)
Ow.
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:19:28 AM)
::Ais stays out of Cas' way, giving her freedom to move, just finding a corner to dig her toes in, letting them spread a bit, as she watches, and she grins a bit:: You're doing much better... ::trying desperately not to giggle, she winced in sympathy::
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:21:47 AM)
*rubs at her head and sinks a bit from the ceiling reflexively, drifting closer to Aislinn..seeming to be better when she's not forcing it* Dangit.. This is harder than rollerskates.
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:22:07 AM)
*concentrating again, she manages a wobbly circuit of the room*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:22:22 AM)
I have something for your head, if it hurts later... ::she looked to Cas and grins:: You... didn't do so well with rollerskates..
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:23:09 AM)
Yeah, you noticed that? *squinting one eye and reaching her hand to push off a wall she's wobbled a little too close to, steering herself around to Audrey to try and pet the leaves*
Tohunga (Sep 5, 2010 4:24:15 AM)
The mist in the room is now completely gone, entirely comprising Cas' new body. Cas' hair is starting to be touched with the mist too, though its not completely replacing it, just becoming a new element to it. Her eyes starting to lose their color too. Impressive really, making her look altogether different...
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:26:50 AM)
It's how we met Jareth.... ::she grins:: Well.. crashed into him. ::she watches Cas curiously, watching the change, a faint grin as she continues to caress her familiar, soothing it and keeping him calm::
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:26:53 AM)
*slowly..she pats Audrey, then rises a bit..and drifts away..weaving back and forth and swaying a little* Ooo.. I need a sheet with two holes in it for eyes.. *giggling again as she gets the hang of it, lifting her hands and making swooky noises as she "haunts" the room*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:27:31 AM)
::she laughs:: I get taller, you get scary? ::said teasingly, as she watches:: Well... we know what you'll be for Halloween..
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:27:44 AM)
*laughs brightly and twirls, -almost- brushing the ceiling, before flying a circuit of the room and soaring up the stairs gleefully*
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:28:05 AM)
WHeeeeEEEE!! *giggling like a fiend*

::mildly concerned:: I don't know if your will will extend up the stairs, Cas... ::eyeing her friend, hoping she doesn't splat on the kitchen floor::
Tohunga OOC (Sep 5, 2010 4:31:24 AM)
As Cas leaves the basement, the cyclone seems to start to peeter out, and then a few moments later a womans body is falling towards the ground ... without legs or her hips, pretty much just a torso. Cas feeling a peculiar feeling roiling through her body.
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:32:13 AM)
::and Ais is already running up the stairs towards Cas:: Are you okay?
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:32:40 AM)
*curling up around her tummy..which is very nearly the end of her at this point, fighting sickness* Oh god..*wincing her eyes shut*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:34:15 AM)
::she blinks.... no legs.... no legs.... no legs... NO LEGS!! Aislinn reaches Cas and frowns:: Back downstairs... right now. ::and Aislinn reaches, getting Cas to the top of the stairs, then calling for Audrey help:: Let's get her downstairs....
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:36:20 AM)
*panic uncurls from that peculiar feeling and fights that drawing sensation and reality in general as she curls tighter*
Tohunga OOC (Sep 5, 2010 4:37:35 AM)
Audrey is moving to work its way up the stairs, Aislinn feeling it pulling its own stand and pot along with it, struggling to get close enough before starting to rise up, nearer and nearer to Cas.
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:38:20 AM)
::her hands on Cas, reassuring her, focusing on her:: You're fine Cas... you'll be fine. Focus.... focus! Don't fight it! Don't resist it! Don't hide from it.... You're okay
Cas Brimley (Sep 5, 2010 4:39:48 AM)
*blue-white energy pulses out from her as she sobs out, a widening ripple like a stone dropped in a pool, shattering glass as it spreads visibly from her in a growing wave..Aislinn's first floor windows blow out as it crosses them, hitting the neighbors' houses on both side before it fades*
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:40:36 AM)
(um... do I get to counter magic that?)
Tohunga OOC (Sep 5, 2010 4:42:52 AM)
(nope, it didn't seem to be a coherent effect, she didn't consciously do it)
Aislinn Connelly (Sep 5, 2010 4:44:24 AM)
::she gasped a bit, ducking to avoid shattered glass, covering Cas' head and torso as she does, before she's scrambling to drag Cas across the floor to the basement::
