The Apartment above the Photo Hut - Thursday Morning

[flamesburned]

So the good news was that Prompto made it back last night, the bad news was that it seemed Fandom weirdness had struck again and Prompto was a pony, so Liz was definitely not going to be heading downstairs to work that day.

Hopefully the pony thing was only going to last the day?

Yesterday had been awful and exhausting and Prompto was so glad to be back, even if he was so tired that he'd practically fallen asleep while clinging to Liz, so that was a pretty good sign that he should probably just slouch off to sleep and take care of explaining things to her and maybe popping over to the clinic to make sure that shovel didn't mess up his back too much, and he didn't even think about the fact that he had class the next day until the extra alarm he had on his phone for it went off the next morning and he very groggily, very irritatingly, cursed his former self for not thinking of turning it off, and so when he went to go reach for it...

...and had hooves instead of hands

So, hey, if Prompto's inability to turn off his alarm wasn't enough indication that something was up, at least the very loud "OH COME ON!" from the bedroom was a good indication to Liz that at least he was up.

Liz had wanted to let Prompto sleep on a bit more, so she had gotten up and gotten Noctra ready for the day

Then she heard the tell from the bedroom and went back in to check, “Prompto?” she called softly as she entered, “Is there anything you’d like me to get for you?”

"My hands back, maybe?" Prompto asked. He had shifted a little, on the bed, his legs tucked under him, and when Liz came in, he lowered his head and just looked at her somewhat pathetically with his big, shiny pony eyes. "Wait, never mind. Knowing my luck, that would mean I'd still be a horse, just with people hands!"

Which would be helpful but also significantly more terrifying.

"I'm really sorry," he said. "I don't know why this is happening. I hope it's not something weird I picked up from Liliana's world or something."

Was it just Fandom being Fandom? Did Gisa's shovel smack curse him? Did his rejection of her make her want to curse him? And he didn't know a whole lot about necromancy, but something told him it usually didn't involve horses. Maybe he should just ask Liliana if she knew.

Liz looked sympathetically at Prompto, “hopefully it’s a Fandom thing?” she said, “I think this happened back when I was a student, it only lasted the day back then, so maybe it’s the same?” she said hopefully.

"Boy, I hope so," Prompto sighed again, but he lifted his head again, tilting it curiously at him. "Did you turn into a pony back then? I don't remember it happening to me. I mean, I could've forgotten, but you'd think I've remembered something like that!"

Or at least have an icon for it already!

"I don't think I did?" Liz said a little uncertainly with a tilt of her head as the mun went to check the icons, "I'd like to think I would remember something like that as well," she added with a small smile, "I mean a lot of things happened at Fandom when I was there but turning into a pony would be pretty memorable I would like to think," she considered.

"Oh, believe me," Prompto's little snort turned into more of a huff, with a bit of a neigh in there, "it's definitely one for the books!"
