[action; locked to house 48]

[So, after the first week of mostly normalcy for him, save for the occasional random teleporting (much to Crow's enjoyment for spooking some people, but being annoying whenever he tried to talk to some of his friends), the second week starts with a very, very different change. It's immediately noticeable the moment he wakes up, and not in the way he normally does. It doesn't feel like a computer booting up, it feels like how a normal person would wake up. Not only that, for some reason, he feels weird, as if someone flipped a switch. Now he can actually feel things, like the texture of the bed or how squishy his cheek is, but why would that--

--And then he notices from looking in a mirror that has Seto's reflection instead of his own, so yeah, enjoy what sounds like "Seto" loudly swearing and waking you up early in the morning, everyone in House 48.]

What the hell is this!?

[action; open to all on any day of the second week!]

[Later, once the chaos at House 48 dies down, you'll likely find "Seto" wandering around being...well, definitely weirder than usual. At first there's a lot of scowling going on or being rather rude. Crow is still not entirely sure what the hell is going on here and why he's stuck in his best friend's body, but eventually he'll start to get over it and can probably be found bothering people like how he normally does, or trying to play around like usual...trying being the key word there, because Crow might be severely underestimating Seto's body being able to do stuff like cartwheels and shit like he can.

Of course, there's also the real Seto, who is now in Crow's body and is probably very un-Crow like as well. Like Crow, who is trying to get used to what its like being in a human body, now Seto is in Crow's body and having to contend with everything that comes with being in a robot body, so...yep. Definitely nothing awkward happening here right now. Have fun running into either of them, or both at the same time.

solesoul! Just let us know whether you want both in the same thread or separate threads with either of them.]

How should I know? I just woke up looking like this--like you...

[And now Seto looks like him, but it's not just appearances that have changed here, now Crow is human and he's not sure how to make sense of it. It's like flipping several switches at once, because now he has a sense of taste and smell and touch, things that were numb or almost nonexistent to him previously.

But now, he loosens his grip slightly, not clinging quite as hard as he forces himself to...to breathe. Yeah, that's what humans are supposed to do, right?] Okay, so...you're me, and I'm you. What now? Got any ideas of how to fix this or do we just have to wait for something to happen like some of the other weird stuff from before.

[Like when you were a kid and we were...actually let's not talk about that incident, pretend we didn't mention it.]

[Seto looks over his friend's face--or his face, still holding onto his hand to comfort him and calm him down. Though in the back of his mind, he realizes something. That even though he has the glove on his hand, he can't feel the warmth of his skin seeping through. It's only been a brief moment since he's held his hand, but Seto's quicker to notice things like this. He focuses on it, he looks for it, even here when he's been here for so long.

And it unsettles him a little deep down somewhere--somewhere?--to not be able to feel that warmth that he's always craved and cherished. And if Crow is him now--doesn't this mean he's human? Shouldn't he be warm?

Though again, he pushes back his thoughts for now and tries to think of an answer.]

I'm not... really sure. I-I think it might be an experiment [At least that's the only answer that makes sense for a situation like this. And as far as Seto can remember, this has happened to other people before... ] so we might have to wait until it's over to get back to normal.

[He watches Crow try to breathe and frowns, asking worriedly] Are you okay?

I...I dunno man, it's really weird. [He holds up a hand in front of his face, wiggling the fingers a little. It doesn't feel like the movement of springs and other metallic parts right now, it's...huh. He's really not sure how to describe it.]

It doesn't feel like how it did before. Is...this what it's like being a human?

[He watches as Crow looks his hand over and has to let out a small smile.

That's right. Seto isn't the only one who must be noticing and feeling all of these changes. It's one thing just being in another person's body but being in a completely different body... All that's different is so obvious to the both of them. So he nods.]

Yeah, it is... it must feel pretty different. [At least now Seto can... have some form of an idea of how different it really is. Because even he can notice the strange way his fingers and body feels when he moves them.] Here, look. [He takes the hand Crow's holding up and holds it with both of his gloved ones. Since he's in Crow's body, his what would be skin can't create body heat, but with the cloth of the gloves and Crow's now real skin, it should create a stronger warmth.

Even though he can't feel it... he wants Crow to. It's important that he does. This is what it feels like to be alive, this warmth is a symbol of it.]

[Crow looks down at their hands, a little confused at first, but...the longer Seto holds onto Crow's hands, the more he can actually start to feel some warmth there. It's an unfamiliar sensation, and at first he's not sure what to make of it. But...to think that this is what Seto feels whenever Crow holds onto his hands...]

Yeah, it is different. [...But then Crow smiles.] But it actually feels pretty nice right now.
