A Bit of a 'Downgrade' [OPEN]

Who: THE MAN, GONGENZAKA and you i guess
What: A MAN COMES OUT FROM THE GAME...And becomes Tree Covered...
When: Late Day 98 - Day 100
Where: Mainframe, The Lake, Carnival Grounds...
Warnings: N/A

[A WINNER IS YOU! - Late 98, FIRST COME FIRST SERVE, MAINFRAME]

[When the game cube rises back up, Gongenzaka pays no mind to the curious addition of a cable or two off his back. There are more important things to do after all, such as celebrate. They won. 'GAME OVER - COMPUTER WINS' is echoing in the air, and it is quickly joined by rousing laughter and excited yips from his snubbull.] HAHAAAHAHAAAAA!! [He laughs, grabbing the nearest person and pulling them into a crushing hug.] WE DID IT..!

WE'VE SUCCEEDED..!

[Did you need that spine you didn't need that spine right? (Also, you might be getting a bit wet. He is absolutely crying.)]

[DAY 99 - LAKE]

[It is strange, but once he returned to the Carnival, he began to feel rather...lethargic. He considered using the scroll of meditation to help recover some-after all, the day following when the Game touched down would be the start of the Performance Week-but eventually decided against it, instead trotting up toward the lake and springs. His intention had been to go to the springs, but...

...The minute so much water lays before him, he finds himself running as fast as his legs can carry him, vaulting off the side and crashing in with an enormous SPLASH. He doesn't so much leave as surface slightly, shaking off a bare minimum of the water as his proud pompadour falls flat over his face, the usual combined strength of gel and dryness falling apart.
] Hoooo... [Who knows...why he needed this much water, but he feels a lot better now, that much is certain. He moves some of the hair from his face-the black strands far longer than most would have likely expected from him, and their roots tinged with what could be a mix of green and brown.

...Hmm. Hopefully he didn't splash anyone...
]

[DAY 100 - CARNIVAL GROUNDS/TRAILER/COOKHOUSE]

[So. ...It appears this is why he needed the water.] A...AUH...

[Quite literally overnight, Gongenzaka's body becomes coated in plantlife-stretching from within his hair to move down along his back and shoulders, all through his tail and even along the underside of the taur-body he has. His silvery white fur is dotted with bark from the life now growing off of him, tendrils of equally pale wood coiling down through his limbs to allow various flowers and leaves to sprout from tufts of once 'flame-like' fur. The leaves and flowers, one will notice from any long distance, are at least themselves a 'flaming' red. Red, Japanese Maple, dark rose (nearly red themselves) sakura blossoms among them, and a few other plants that he himself can't fully recognize. His tail seems to have been completely replaced by them in fact-though despite all appearances, it seems people can still sit on his back if the question ever arises.

Or rather, they can sit there and not end up seated on twigs-it instead feels like a bed of flowers and leaves, as soft as the fur once was. (And he is, somehow, still wearing a T-Shirt today.)

It is not the only change, perhaps-but it is certainly the one that Gongenzaka pays most attention to, and certainly the only one he sees at this point in time over himself-Suzu the snubbull is also left with a minor change of her own in fact, and the pokemon follows him around for the day bearing a collar of moss about her neck, with similarly fluffy patches at the base of her ears like little bows.

It's.

Quite impressive, really, though he doesn't honestly feel it. If anything, as he makes his way from his Trailer to the Cookhouse for some food, he feels a little lost about everything.

[Listen, let's not talk about the meditation. Instead, lets talk about Gongenzaka's immense flower problem.]

So ya think it'll get worse?
otoko: (OnO (MRP-))

[personal profile] otoko 2017-05-23 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Nh-W-Worse?!

I, the man Gongenzaka, would hope not..!! What I mean is that I have not been able to check myself thoroughly..!!
pipers_son: (leyline) (You talked to that cop for like)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-05-25 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Well, I can help with that, easy!

...If ya get away from the doors and windows a bit more, anyway.

[fuckin vampirism]
otoko: (o3o)

[personal profile] otoko 2017-05-25 01:08 pm (UTC)(link)
HMM?! [...Oh. Well, he's coming in closer, eyeing the other a little curiously.] If you say so, then... ...what worries me is that such plants come with more than decoration, I will admit.

[Oh they sure do buddy, but just wait for it-]
pipers_son: (I like to think it a success when)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-05-27 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Well, even if they do somethin' ta me, it won't be much fuss~.

[The only good thing about being a vampire: essential immortality so long as you don't fuck up your heart. Getting up to his feet, he cheerfully bounces over and leans from one side to the other as he gets a good look.]

So where do ya want me ta start?
otoko: (o3o)

[personal profile] otoko 2017-05-27 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Auhhh....

...Mostly, it is my back that I, the man Gongenzaka, have been having trouble checking over...while I can reach my tail, anything from the middle and upward requires a larger mirror than I, the man Gongenzaka, can access...

...Or at least without using the hall of mirrors...
pipers_son: (part_b) (I just saw a stripper light her nipples)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-05-29 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, and the hall of mirrors can be proper bastards, can't they? Anyway, this might tickle a bit, hooold on....

[Excuse him as he starts poking around your back, Gongenzaka.]
otoko: (YUUUUUYAAAAAA -CRUNCH-)

[personal profile] otoko 2017-05-29 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
[He does not say much, but he does nod-and just as Joker gives his warning-] MFNGH- [It definitely tickles to a point- actually, with a sudden rustle, a number of vines shoot out in a ticklish spasm.] KFFGHHHGHHFHH- [...Gongenzaka is doing his best to not laugh, in the meantime. (No he didn't notice the vines)]
pipers_son: (iconography) (idk. a stripper just bit me.)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-05-30 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[OH THAT'S SURE A THING]

[Joker stops and hops back from surprise, wings fluttering.]


Oh! Ya got vines there, Zaka! Very, ha, active ones, too
otoko: (o3o)

[personal profile] otoko 2017-05-31 03:19 pm (UTC)(link)
V-Vines?! [Well, active for a moment. They retract just as quickly now that tickling no longer is a thing.] Where?!
pipers_son: (leyline) (FYI I found your friend asleep in my)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-06-02 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, right around on yer back, right here-

[Time to hop closer and tickle at it!]
otoko: (o3o)

[personal profile] otoko 2017-06-02 01:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Hauh? I, the man Gongenzaka, can't s- [And there goes a tickle jolt once again as he abruptly loses focus of whatever he's thinking about.] PFGHHHHH- [VINESVINES EVERYWHERE.]
pipers_son: (I like to think it a success when)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-06-04 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Okay, this is getting to be kind of fun, and Joker giggles as he skitters back again.]

Could ya feel it that time?
pipers_son: (insovereign) (All semester I've been trying to)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-06-06 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
I was just poking about your back and all the plants on there! I mean, I couldn't be for certain what was there if I wasn't a little handsy, could I?
pipers_son: (leyline) ("Five things that make you perfect. Go.")

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-06-07 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno, why do ya? I'm just helpin' like I said I would~.

[ACCUSING AN INNOCENT MAN LIKE HIM...]
pipers_son: (leyline) (Also what is a socially acceptable)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-06-08 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Vines, like I told ya! And they can get pretty active. Try seein' if ya can move 'em all on yer own, without me proddin' at ya and all that.
otoko: (-3- hrmnnnnn)

[personal profile] otoko 2017-06-08 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmnnhhh...I, the man Gongenzaka, can barely tell that I have such limbs to control...

[Buttttt he will try. And...maybe they wiggle??]
pipers_son: (leyline) (And the cops told us we were all)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-06-10 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Well, new additions like this can always be a bit tricky ta- ah! [He points.] They did a bit of squirmin'!
otoko: (HRMMNN =3=)

[personal profile] otoko 2017-06-10 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
HMM!? Did they?!

[OHH-]

...now if only I, the man Gongenzaka, could better focus on what caused it...

[shoot]
pipers_son: (leyline) (FYI I found your friend asleep in my)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-06-10 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
....Want me ta poke it again?
pipers_son: (leyline) (And the cops told us we were all)

[personal profile] pipers_son 2017-06-12 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
What, ya don't think that would help?
