13th Turn [Action/Written]

[It was cold.

That was his first thought when he woke up in the woods surrounding the Barracks, literally sprawled out in the trees. The cold air bit into his bare hands, stung his ears and his cheeks, and made him miss the summery heat and exotic beaches that were starting to disappear back into his subconscious. This wasn’t the tropics; this was Luceti.
Sleep never looked more welcoming.

It was only when Lupin started to move that he noticed that something important in the world was terribly off. The branches were too big—and where was his coat? The coat was important, and he didn't care about what the Malnosso thought...

He stared at his hand, dumbfounded, when he caught sight of it. Seconds later he yelped in sheer shock and tumbled from the tree and into the snow.




...someone was going to pay for this own.

Chirping and chattering in irritation, Lupin pulled himself from the snow. Anyone care to give a monkey a hand?]



[Later that evening, after he has been returned to his apartment with both himself and his journal intact, Lupin scrawled out a message for the village at large:]

Lucky you, Luceti. Looks like I’m not gone yet.

What's the date? I thought they were going to let me spend the winter in Rio, so I wasn't expecting snow.

Did I miss anything?

[He snaps the book shut at this. Goddamn he needed a drink. And a smoke. Not that he was going to get either soon--because he was a good monkey, and good monkeys don't smoke.]

((ooc:: Lupin here has been turned into a capuchin monkey for a week. Replies will come from [personal profile] monkey_punch_d . Thank you

Maybe. [A pause, small dots of ink appearing now and again as she taps her pen on the page.] You all right?

[He would thank her for how cool she was eventually.]

They gave me a very annoying present, but I'm fine. Annoyed. But fine.

do you know what a monkey is?

[He had no idea about some of these people from other worlds, and he didn't really feel like explaining.]

[She was twisted.]

Don't laugh.

They're going to pay for this one.

They turned me into a little monkey from the tropics.

Beautiful.
