Mercury Monster Mash

[onetrippony]

Bingo Card

Appearance on Land: Mercury looks pretty normal for the most part. Everywhere he has tattoos though (base of neck, left arm, down his side from his ribs to his left ankle) has fish-like, blue-shaded scaling. His ears have also been replaced with Vaporeon-like ears.

Appearance in Water/When Wet: Mercury's skin takes on a bluer tinge and his legs are replaced with a leafy sea dragon-like tail. From the elbow down, his arms have the same blue scaling that sits under his tattoos and his hands have a more claw-like appearance.

And you went... very pale.

[inspiteful]

It's pretty weird when I look like my friend back home.

[onetrippony]

It's an interesting look.

[inspiteful]

You think so?

...You don't feel any urge to, uh, eat souls or anything, right?

[onetrippony]

Nnnnno? I'm not hungry at all right now.

[inspiteful]

Okay good because that would have been awkward.

[onetrippony]

... Do I want to ask?

[inspiteful]

...You kind of look like something that, uhm, eats souls, back home?

[onetrippony]

Well, I haven't got any urges right now, but I can let you know if they come up and we can... figure something out from there?

[inspiteful]

Okay, good.

...Is there anything I can help you with?

[onetrippony]

Hmm... how're you at craftwork?

[inspiteful]

Decent enough.

[onetrippony]

We could make some kind of jewelry together for one of my squares. What about yours?

[inspiteful]

You could escort me across the water?

[onetrippony]

Sure, like... you need to be carried across?

[inspiteful]

I'm not sure what "escorts" means here.

[onetrippony]

Well, if we find a shallow enough pond, I could carry you across.

[inspiteful]

...Okay, sure.

[onetrippony]

Let's find a little pond and do that then.

[ Looking around for one. ]

[inspiteful]

-- Ah, over there.

[It's a nice small pond!]

[onetrippony]

Perfect.

[ Stepping into the water... and immediately falling over because his legs get replaced by a tail the second they get wet. ]

[inspiteful]

--Mercury, are you alright?

[onetrippony]

--What just happened??

[inspiteful]

You have a tail now?

[onetrippony]

I have a tail now.

[ Lifting it to look at it... ]
