prank #31 | action+text; OUTBREAK EVENT
A; Other House
[When John finally wakes up at around noon, he's somewhat relieved to find that the nausea and weak feeling in his limbs from the past three days seem to have stopped. Or at least, they've lessened to a point where he doesn't feel like total shit anymore. There's still a dull throbbing in his head, but compared to the migraines from earlier, it's nothing worth commenting on. Oddly enough though, there's a dull, stinging pain on the outside of his head too. Kinda like when you fall and scrape your knee and you can still sort of feel if for a while afterwards.]
[But honestly, he's more distracted by the pain in his teeth, which took him a few moments to notice. That and the fact that his pillow seems to be soaked with what he has to guess is drool. He sits up, moving a hand to his mouth only to discover that somethig is distinctly not right with his teeth.]
[Well...more not right than usual, that is.]
[He grabs his glasses from his bedside table and jams them onto his face before dashing out of the bedroom he shared with his friends. He was in such a hurry that he didn't even notice the splotches and stripes all over his arms. At least, not until he reaches the bathroom.]
[There's a loud shriek followed by the crackle of electricity as John catches a look at himself in the mirror. All the lights in the house flicker momentarily but fortunately stay on.]
[Well...save for the ones in the bathroom. Those are pretty much toast. The lightbulb literally exploded, showering the floor with broken glass and who knows how fried the wiring is. There are char marks on the walls and the mirror is cracked in several places. But John doesn't stick around long to assess the damage. A yellow and purple, vagely John-shaped blur streaks through the house and out the back door. After settling in a far corner of the garden, he pulls out his Pokegear.]

[Excuse the typos, his hands are a little jittery from all this extra energy he's suddenly found himself saddled with. Though as he grows more frustrated with his inability to type, he experiences another surge in elecrical power and short circuits his gear, mid sentence]
[Well shit. He'll have to get back to any responses once he replaces his gear...]
C: Action; Goldenrod
[Sometime later, John can be found outside in Goldenrod. As much as he doesn't want to go out looking like this, he kind of needs a new gear. Or maybe two or three in case the same thing happens again. Though he didn't leave the house without covering up first.]
[Despite the summer weather, he's now dressed in a hoodie which has the combined advantages of covering his arms as well as his horns. There's a scarf wrapped around the bottom half of his face, hiding the saber-buck teeth and blue lips. Sadly, without prescription sunglasses there's nothing he can do about the cat's eyes and stripes in the center of his forehead. Other than keep his head down, that is. He's doing his best to stay away from people and out of the way, but honestly his attempts to hide himself kind of make him stand out.]
[Plus he keeps kind of...crackling with electricity from time to time.]
((ooc: I didn't actually write it out because this was long enough already, but for A, characters staying in the Other House can barge in on John inbetween B and C when he's putting on his shitty disguise. There's not really much else to go on there because of all his running around. Though they can of course catch glimpses of John/see the bathroom/react to the commotion/what have you.))

[Action; A]
He had been in the kitchen, readying some water- not to mention finding some new comfort in it- and a damp cloth to place next to John for when he woke up. That's when it had happened.
At the exact time that the lights begun to flicker, the Other Father had felt a large shiver shoot down his spine. He had felt something similar before, but actual fear had only hit him a few times since his arrival in Johto. The fear from the sense of electrical power had subsided, but quickly replaced itself as he heard the door to the back garden go.
John.
If it had just been sparks flying from the electricity box then he would have stayed put, but this was his child and the fear of danger to them drowned out his new-spawned fear from his type.
Dropping everything, the usually-calm and smooth man rushes to the back garden, slowing as he peaks out of the door to the corner where John sits.]
John?
[Action; A]
[He doesn't move from his spot in the corner of the garden, he just gives Other Father a somewhat lost, slightly scared expression. He has no idea what's going on, having been too sick the past few days to really keep up with current events. Meaning he of course missed the memo about the sickness turning in to full blown mutations and powers.]
[Waking up to this sort of thing can be quite the shock to your system, in this case literally.]
Uwm... [Wow, that is not how "I'm" is supposed to sound. It's kind of hard to make the m sound in particular.] Ahhhww.. ah'm fhane!
[Yup, totally fine. You're just imagining the part where he's kind of scared and confused about this whole thing.]
no subject
There's something telling him not to go near him, that there's something about John that his body won't agree with and he should just keep his difference; the expressions the boy's giving him set off his fatherly instincts though and the Other Father starts to walk towards him.
He's keeping on a brave, happy face even though he's inwardly worried with every closer step.]
Likin' the new look.
[Remain calm and the child might calm down. There's nothing to worry about.]

Action; C
An Espeon carefully follows behind her, edging away from nearly everyone that passes.
At least the air around her is a pleasant relief from the heat of summer? Though sorry for bumping into you, John. She's not really watching where she's going.]]
Action; C
[You may be bundled up just as well as he is, Rose, but he recognizes those legs. And that Espeon. And those shoes.]
[His eyes go wide though the slitted pupils contract. Oh no...no no no, Rose for once you are the last person he wanted to see. At least until he could figure out a way to reverse this. Unfortunately, those blue eyes are pretty much unmistakable, even with cat pupils. So are the glasses and...hey, didn't you knit John that scarf for Christmas, Rose? It looks awfully familiar...]
Re: Action; C
Wh-wh-what are y-you doing o-o-out of b-bed?
[[Someone's shivering like mad, making her stutter and her teeth chatter as she talks. And thanks to trying to hide herself she hasn't completely noticed what's wrong with John yet.]]

Action A
What the fuck? Is this place haunted? Wouldn't that just fucking figure. Except wait! Something just ran past her. Well time to investigate.
She hits the bathroom first, taking note of the damage. It looks like someone got into a fight. Broken glass on the floor and the mirror, scorch marks on the wall. Looks like someone's Pokebeasts got a little carried away.
Once she finishes checking out the bathroom, she heads out back to find whatever it was that flew past her. Maybe it was some new Pokémon she could catch. Instead she finds.... John? Is that John? He looks...]
What the fuck happened to you?
Action A
[Oh what the fuck. Really, it shouldn't surprise him that these teeth get in the way of talking properly but...oh ew and he's kind of drooling again too. Welp! That's what sleeves are for!]
Ah d'nt knorwh!
[He shrugs. He just doesn't know, Vriska. But he's not really enjoying it.]
Action A
She sits down next to him, pulling her knees up and just kind of studying the changes. It's actually not so bad. The horns are kind of neat. She reaches out to touch one of them.]
Well you look pretty bad ass!

It doesn't take long for her to find John in the garden, though from a distance she's not entirely sure it's him. She cautiously approaches and calls out...]
John? Is that you... ?

[Action: C]
[Jack doesn't judge and thinks little else of it until One gives a good hard yank on his lead, barking like mad. CAT! CAT! ONE CHASE CAT >8U. He manages to start dragging Jack in John's direction.]
One, stop that immediately! Bad dog!
[Action: C]
[Electricity starts to crackle around him. Even if he's not actually a cat, having a hellhound bark at you like that? Kind of scary. And John was already on edge to begin with.]

I'm very sorry, I don't know what's gotten into him! He's usually so well behaved. ONE, SIT!
