3rd Partridge [Action][Let's be a puddle]

[pearheaded]

[You know the saying. You are what you eat drink love.

Ian? He's an easily pleased sort of fella. The problem with that? It makes for some awkward loving; lo and behold, before he knew it, he was water—yes, water. And he hasn't been able to get himself somewhere without causing a little ruckus here and there. Your character? Maybe they just poured themselves a glass. Maybe they're walking through the store and found him tsk, tsk, he's disaster prone for slipping lately, it seems. Maybe you were in your apartments, chillin', and suddenly there's a drip from the ceiling. Whatever your sad little mind can imagine where your character interacts with water? Go for it. Otherwise, you could just spot a reasonably-sized mass of 'rain water' literally moving on it's own outside.

Maybe muttering under its breath.]

—oh my god this is kinda cool but still please tell me I can change back oh please I really liked having two legs—!!

[If she wasn't as curious as she is, you'd be taking a trip right down the pipes. :|]

It's no problem, really. After all, you're a person... kinda? [She giggles a bit at that. ...He seems honest enough, and certainly nice, but she just has to ask something.] Hey, Ian... d'you know what a Volos is?

[ilu-water.livejournal.com]

A... Volos?

Nuh uh! Never heard of it before!

[vivi-aislinn.livejournal.com]

[She puts on her best "you're gonna get it" face and holds the glass just over the sink. ...It's vaguely threatening, but also kind of amusing.]

Are you telling the truth, mister?

[ilu-water.livejournal.com]

[SCREAAAAAA—

PANIC PANIC FRET PANIC!!

why no, he can't read into the 'amusement' part of that.]

Of course I am! Please don't pour me away I don't wanna be in the drains!!

[SOB]

[vivi-aislinn.livejournal.com]

[Never before has the phrase "water torture" been so... literal. Possibly ironic.]

...Okay. [She gently sets the glass down on the counter, far away from any drains.] Sorry, mister Ian, but... but I had to check. [Vivi manages a small smile, but it seems forced.]

[ilu-water.livejournal.com]

Had to check...?

[He 'sits up' in the cup, leaning on the edge as if he weren't totally liquidized.]

Why's that?

[vivi-aislinn.livejournal.com]

W-well... back home, there's these really mean guys called the Volos. [She takes her hat off, fiddling with it nervously.] They have these dream powers, but only guys are "allowed" to have them... s-so when my mom and I got them too... [She trails off there.]

[ilu-water.livejournal.com]

What?! That's crazy! No one should be put apart from anyone else 'cause of their gender! Heck, if you knew some of the girls from my world, you'd see what I mean—the best fighters there are all ladies! Not to mention, the smartest and prettiest!!

[huff puff this is indignation, as spoken by Water!]

[vivi-aislinn.livejournal.com]

Really? [If only she could return to your world, Ian. ;_; If only.] Well... I mean, it's not 'cause I'm a girl... guys and girls get along fine back home. It's just that I'm a girl with these powers that only the guys had for a long time...

[ilu-water.livejournal.com]

Even then, it's still wrong! A lady should be able to be strong or get powers, too! What makes it so bad if you have them??

[vivi-aislinn.livejournal.com]

I don't know! [The shout comes from nowhere, seemingly; if only Ian knew what she went through because of her "anomalous" powers.]

[ilu-water.livejournal.com]

[The rippling water seems to freeze up for a moment.]

Ah... Sorry. It must've... been really tough for you, huh?

[vivi-aislinn.livejournal.com]

[She just nods. Both hands go around the glass of water and, hesitatingly, she pulls it closer to herself in what might be a hug.]

[ilu-water.livejournal.com]

[If he could smile, he would.]

Hey now, don't worry! People won't bother you here. You'll find a lot of people here who won't care what you can do! I promise.

[vivi-aislinn.livejournal.com]

I know, but... I'm still just really worried. What if a guy from my world is here somewhere? I mean, maybe they're not going to hurt me right away, but if they get into my dreams... [Still hugging the glass.]

[ilu-water.livejournal.com]

W-well, if they bother you, just tell me! I'll kick them where the sun doesn't shine, no problem! And I'll bet there are tons of people here who'll do the same!

[vivi-aislinn.livejournal.com]

[That makes her giggle.] Well, when you stop being water! ...but, thank you, mister Ian. [She gives the glass one more little hug, then sets it down.] I'll remember that, okay?

[ilu-water.livejournal.com]

Ahaaha, right! When I'm not water anymore.

I got it!

[vivi-aislinn.livejournal.com]

Alright!

[...Now she's just looking at the glass in a slightly confused way.] Um, should I just pour you on the ground or something...?

[ilu-water.livejournal.com]

Go ahead and pour me outside, and I'll figure out how to wiggle myself around from there, no prob!

[vivi-aislinn.livejournal.com]

Okay!

[Holding the glass gently, she'll step outside and pour Ian onto a snow-free spot.] Try not to freeze, okay? That would be really bad...
