Who: The Glitter Criminal
When: Day 42, Morning
Where: The Jackal Express

[Hey, Aurora. Do you hear that? A slight whining noise, barely audible over the noises of the train itself?

Well, early in the morning of day 42, that whine becomes a loud POP.

And now all the public cars and all of Senna is literally covered in glitter. Glitter rains from the vents. Shoots out from under seats. Glitter big enough to come in funny shapes. Tiny iridescent glitter that you're never going to get out of your clothes coats the windows, making the scenery glimmer. Glitter everywhere in every shape, size and color.]

That's not going to work out for you here. Nothing on this train is set up to accommodate that. I'd recommend instead spending your time learning how to generate the positive energy needed to keep us all from ceasing to exist.

If this place changed me, it can change me back. You've already proven shape changing is on board, and something here is doing healing magic, with some tools and time, I can figure it out, I don't need accommodations.

And I can multitask. There's a good chance harmony magic will be necessary to fix what's been altered, that's the kind of thing it would do.

[desirestruth]

The shapechanging is my own natural magic. So is the healing.

[Flatly.]

[daydreamshimmer]

Which means this place can still take that magic. Magic is still happening.

I may not remember my name, but I do remember magic and if I have to write a whole new spell to fix myself, I will.

[She just....has to figure out how to get around the no conduit thing.]

...If you're going to refuse to listen to a word of advice I'm saying, then on your own head be it. I don't have to time to keep arguing with another brick wall.

[SHE IS SO FUCKING TIRED.]

[daydreamshimmer]

Your advice is stupid.

'Just let yourself go around in a body that's not yours and cripple yourself from your full potential,' because what? There's not big red button to 'accommodate' me to turn back?

If you wanted to be my friend so we could bond then you wouldn't have been looking ready to eat me upstairs and telling me to just be fine in something that's wrong and weak.

[desirestruth]

...I have listened to you insult me, call those I love weak and freaks, accuse me of wanting to harm you, continually imply humans are a lesser species, and then accuse me of not wanting to be your friend?

You're right. I don't.

[She stands up sharply from the table and just. Leaves.

And closes the door because she's an asshole and doesn't think Sunset can work a doorknob.]

[daydreamshimmer]

And I don't want to be yours either! I want to not be a freak of nature!

[Shouting after her because she's a ball of spite and petty.]

[And a lot of anger because it's easier than fear.]

[Instead she's going to go upstairs and she can at least ponder clothes. It's not like the dress looks bad and maybe she wasn't lying about clothes. And figure out. Walking. With a bed nearby.]

[At least she's figured out doorknobs.]
