Who: Hyzenthlay Human!Loss
shining_like_dew
What: Hyzenthlay finds herself in a confusing and awkward predicament
When: This evening
Where: The gardens
Rating: PG-13 for nudity
The weather was pleasant, the warm sun on the grass outside, and her burrow cool by comparison. She had eaten her fill - on her own time, something she still did not take for granted - and had nestled down to sleep.
Instead, she awoke to feel grass against her cheek. Her face twitched and crunched against the feeling, and eventually she gave up the pretense of sleep in order to rise and resituate herself. Pushing up from the ground, however, she immediately noticed something was up.
At first, she froze, her heart-rate spiking in confused terror, and a moment later she jolted back and tried to push away from the tangle of limbs and sensations that were decidedly strange.
When that didn't work, she sat and panted, looking in wonder at her changed hands, her fingers, then down at her legs and feet, wiggling her toes.
The cold, disheartening realization sunk in once she was calm enough to process it; she had gone to sleep a rabbit, and woken up man.

He might not have believed it, had he not experienced such a transformation himself in recent weeks past. That the castle can inexplicably change somebody into something completely different, while very disturbed and upsetting, is nevertheless within the scope of 'believable' for him now, and he rushes to the girl's feet to peer up at her with one, wide eye.
"It really is you, isn't it? The castle did this to you, too... it doesn't look like it tends to enjoy giving people a heads' up about this sort of thing, heh..."
no subject
"It must. Do you have and suggestions? I feel very strange. I can't hear, I can't smell, like I used to ..."
no subject
"I'm not sure. You've always had to eat and drink and breathe, right? Those were things I had to learn-- when I was human, I mean-- but I don't think you need help with them. You just kind of have to get used to the changes, you can't really control them... I'm sorry, I know that's not helpful at all..."
He sighs, shaking his head, dejected that he can't offer better advice.
"Just... be careful?"
no subject
She says this now, but she would still find them as terrifying, regardless.
no subject
He smiles plaintively; he doesn't seem so certain that there's anything he can do for her, but the sentiment is definitely there. At his size, he usually isn't able to aid humans in too many ways, but at least he can be there for Hyzenthlay, as when it comes to being forcibly changed into a human body, he knows just how strange and uncomfortable it can be.
"You should probably come indoors soon, though; it's getting late. Ah, do you have anywhere you can stay? I'd offer, but, um... I don't think it would really work."
no subject
He does, whoever, offer some sound advice, and she nods. "Right. What sort of burrows do men like? I haven't been much inside." She looks over at the castle with trepidation. It was considerably daunting, even as a human.
no subject
He hesitantly starts to walk towards the castle, hoping that she'll follow suit. He isn't entirely sure how to explain a lot of these things to Hyzenthlay, really-- but as her friend, he feels like he should at least make an effort.
"I can show you. The castle might actually have a room set out for you, even if you don't ever use it. If it doesn't, though, er... you'll need to ask a friend. One who isn't so small, eheh."
