[onegreeneye]

[Sorry, he's just going to... stare at this for a good couple minutes. And wonder why stuff like this always comes in just as he's trying to sleep.

Then it actually clicks enough for him to respond.]

sorry, that... sounds unpleasant.

are you alright?

[tigermillionaire]

i still feel really siiick.....
i'm in bed

i have plants now though i think theyr cute.

[onegreeneye]

huh. i'm... glad you like the plants, though... do you mean they're growing on you?

[tigermillionaire]

yeah they grew out of my BACK!!

it really hurt but i'm cool with them now
we have an understanding,

[onegreeneye]

good to hear you're taking it so well.

anything else change yet?

[tigermillionaire]

ive got flowers in my hair
and my tongue is GREEN

i feel so bad tho oh my gosh...
nobody said i would get the flu

[onegreeneye]

at least we can say pretty surely what you're turning into... that's good, anyway. better than having to wait through a few changes to figure it out.

sorry to hear that... i don't think it happens very often - i only remember meeting one person who had anything like that happen during one of his changes.

[tigermillionaire]

yeah elsa guessed right away....
i'm sort of happy becausei thought the people that had the plants were extra pretty
like mabel and stuff.

i guess i wastn feeling good already
something kind of weird happened to me :( i dont really know

[onegreeneye]

well, good for you, i suppose. and i'm sure mabel would appreciate that.

what do you mean? what happened?

[tigermillionaire]

i duno....

[He feels reluctant - scared - to talk about it. He doesn't understand what happened to him, and that uncertainty makes him uncomfortable, along with the terrifying possibilities he's trying very hard to not acknowledge.

But he does know that it probably has something to do with why he feels so terrible now.]

i think something did magic at me
i was out and then my feet got really cold and i couldnt move them,
and i got so tired i could hardly stand up :(

[onegreeneye]

what

when did this happen? did you see who did it?

[He supposes it shouldn't be too much of a surprise, around here; he's heard that some monsters feed on energy, rather than flesh. But it's disturbing to think of, all the same.]

[tigermillionaire]

[The response takes a little while. He sort of feels uncomfortable giving details, but...]

i was hanging out at the mystery wagon yesterday
or um the one before that.
i went in the tent to look at the museum and things got really scary.

[onegreeneye]

[...what]

what were you doing at the mystery wagon? that place is

well i can't say i recommend it.

[The rest is a little more concerning. For one thing, he doesn't want to know what kind of a 'museum' Stan Pines would be running, but, more importantly...]

and was that when your feet wouldn't move?

[tigermillionaire]

yeah.

[He's starting to sort of feel scared and sad about it all over again. The memory of the sensation is haunting.]

i just thought that
mabel works there so i wanted to say hi....
i started talking to her grunkle and he showed me the museum but then when he left my feet got stuck

[onegreeneye]

[...Dammit. He doesn't want to jump to conclusions, he knows he doesn't know everything that happened, but... dammit, it's the only real explanation he can think of.

Maybe it was a mistake. Maybe it was like when Ginko lost control.

After all he had said about monsters...]

i'm sorry. that sounds terrible.

it makes sense that you would want to go see mabel, but if you go there again

please be careful of her great uncle, alright?

i'm going to go talk to him and see if i can find out what happened.

[He can guess what happened.]

[tigermillionaire]

[Yeep, this is exactly what he was hoping wouldn't happen.]

no you dont have to!!
i dont know he did anything he wasn't there anymore

if he did something he probably didn't mean it right???

[onegreeneye]

maybe not. that's what i intend to find out.

look, steven, it isn't just this - as long as i've known him, stan pines has never exactly been the most trustworthy person. he may not have done this, but, please, watch out for that guy.

[tigermillionaire]

but he's mabel's family!

[onegreeneye]

[This time it takes him a moment to respond.]

which is why i want to be able to assume the best about him, as much as that's possible.

i'm not telling you to avoid him entirely or anything, and i'm not saying that i have any intention of hurting him. i just want you to be careful.

[He's not planning on hurting him. He really hopes that doesn't change, but no way is he letting this go without confronting him somehow.]

[tigermillionaire]

do you think it was someone feeding?

like is that what that probably was?

[onegreeneye]

most likely. which is part of why it may not have been intentional.

[tigermillionaire]

do you think they would have killed me if i didn't get away?

[onegreeneye]

it's possible.

[tigermillionaire]

okay....
i was just thinking about it a lot.....
it's okay
