One unenthusiastic video under sea [13/??? artefacts collected]

[ Philip's face is looking perfectly normal (if a little crabby in the strictly mood-related sense of the word). Shoulders, arms, no problem there. His chest, not currently covered by any sort of clothing, is looking just a tad more blueish and... transparent than it should.

Opacity only decreases from there, making Phil entirely light blue and see-through below his stomach. Below the waist it looks like he's been torn and tattered, his body segueing into a thick bundle of thin tentacles where his legs should be.

Or in other words: Philip, now with roughly 65% more this.
]

How is that even--

[ The blue tentacles whirl around as Philip turns and spins nervously in front of his algae-encrusted mirror, placing his hands behind his back to confirm that there is indeed nothing whatsoever between the front and the back of his body.

He spins a few more times before letting himself drift onto his mattress with resignation.

...I want my organs back.

You're saying that as if everything else here is usually perfectly normal.

[ But everyone's got his pet peeves and if that's really one of Tim's, then Philip should probably try to be supportive. ]

...I'd offer to swim by with a six pack, but I'm not sure how much we'd get out of it right now.

You might just fill up your torso with beer. And then you'll slosh every time you move.

Things here are never normal. But they're usually okay.

That's... [ Ew. Just ew. ]

Erm...

[ What to suggest, what to suggest? ]

Maybe you could... cover it up? With a towel?

I'm glowing. You don't understand.

Well at least my lower half is.

*And no he's not going to show you.*

Blue.

See-through.

Hollow.

Tentacles.

Remember?

[ So yeah, he kind of does understand. ]

Okay. That's true. Are... Are you poisonous?

[video]

No, I'm--

[ To demonstrate he repeats what he showed Dean earlier; getting hold of one tentacle and running it along his arm.

He also neglects to consider that, despite his arm looking human it might just be jellyfish enough to be immune against the effects of his tentacles.
]

I'm, uhm... harmless? [ He doesn't really know what would be a good word to use here. ]

{Suuuure, whatever you say. }

You'd be a kinda dumb jellyfish if you could sting YOURSELF though.

...... It's weird talking to you when I can... See through you.

I-- I just assumed because my hand was still...

[ Sigh. ] But you may have a point. Should probably be more careful with those then...

[ He trails off for a moment. ]

Erm, do you want me to turn the video off?

[voice]

[identity profile] timisnotme.livejournal.com 2011-02-14 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
Nah, it's okay. It's just.. not what I'm used to.

Can you even swim?

Of course I can swim!

[ His honour as a temporary underwater mutant freak is at stake! Philip instantly opens his window, places the communicator on the sill and pushes himself out into the open water.

He traces a semi-circle, spins around (spreading his tentacles in a manner that is undoubtedly very majestic or very silly, depending on how you look at it) and returns to the window.
]

...See?

Okay okay. Don't sting me for it.

I still haven't figured out how to really work this tail thing. So you're far more coordinated than I am.

[ He shrugs, not actually that offended after all. He understands the scepticism. ]

I was surprised I could move on my own at all. It's... not a very fast model, but at least it's easy to steer once you get the hang of it.

...You probably just have to get out and practice more.

I could do that. But instead I'm going to hide in my room and wait for this stupid event to end.

My tv doesn't even work. This sucks.

[ But there is ocean everywhere! Beautiful and shiny ocean!

This is a complicated novelty for Philip. He's usually the gloomier one by far.

...Want somebody to keep you company?

Re: [video]

Nah. It's cool. Thanks though. *He really doesn't want anyone to see his shinyness*

[video]

[ Philip nods. ]

Give me a call if you need something, okay?

[voice]

[identity profile] timisnotme.livejournal.com 2011-02-17 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Will do. See you after the event.

*And he clicks off the feed. And goes to hide in the bathroom FOREVER*
