I know I can't have been the only one who ended up as a pokemon during the weekend. Which was a really unique experience, don't get me wrong. I certainly feel like I've gotten a better understanding of what it is like to be a pokemon, but.

Well.

Has anyone else been dealing with any... unusual urges since then?

[Armin just had a passing urge to beat up a small child for a french fry. Please tell him he is not the only one dealing with this.]

walking on all fours mostly.

At least I am not the only one.

Has it been getting any better for you?

[bertall]

Kind of? I|

still try and hop into bed like Marcel usually does which is... a little awkward. And sometimes I start getting a little wobbly when I walk, but it's not as bad as it was the day after. It could be better, but it could also be worse too.

I keep catching myself wanting to hide away food. And my own keys.

And. uh.

Earlier I saw some Wishiwashi and they looked delicious.

I've come to find that my own hiding spot for things I want to save isn't as hidden as I thought. I could smell where I hid it and|

wait

armin

armin, no

[unabates]

Anytime I see someone who's got an injury or a scrape, I want to make them eat an egg.

[ this is what he gets for being ford's shoulder chansey during dedenny fight club. ]

[schachmeister]

An... egg?

[unabates]

Yeah. I was a Chansey for most of the weekend.

[schachmeister]

Huh. That's

[Surprising is what it is. Jack doesn't really seem like the Chansey type from what Armin knows about him. Also, it makes him question something he had assumed until that point--]

... you don't own a Chansey, do you?

[adandyinspace]

uh no?? im not a dumbass? ?

it takes what? two seconds to tell yourself not to eat a table honestly that says more about you than it does about me

[schachmeister]

Obviously I am not acting on my urges. But not acting on them and them not being there are two vastly different things.

[adandyinspace]

suuuuuuure you arent

or youre just not telling anyone it happened

it wouldnt be a big deal otherwise, everyone gets the urge to bite someone's face off sooner or later you dont see me making whiny panic posts about it

[schachmeister]

... I'm not panicking.

[shiro2hero]

Well

I feel small.

That's a new feeling for me.

[schachmeister]

[Welcome to Armin's world, Shiro.]

I imagine it must be for you.

But nothing else? No odd... dietary impulses?

text;

[shiro2hero]

I keep ducking when I don't need to.

... like?

text;

[schachmeister]

Well, Aggrons eat metal, right? So maybe something like hubcaps looking really tasty to you right now? Or trying to snack on spoons?

[Krieg's not typically the kind of guy whose mind goes to the Worst Possible Place upon hearing a suspect phrase, but jeez. The wording there....]

What kinds of urges? Are you okay?

text;

[schachmeister]

[aww, Krieg, he didn't mean to concern you with his weird urges to punch a small child for a delicious fry.]

I'm all right. It's just. Sometimes odd thoughts pass through my head still. Mostly food-related, actually.

text;

[fuelthefire]

[OH okay, it's food-related. That's a lot less concerning, and also, Krieg can relate.]

Food is important!

What did you turn into?

text;

[schachmeister]

I was turned into a Wingull.

Did you turn into anything? I didn't have a chance to see you this weekend.

[Learning to fly and not crash is pretty time-consuming. Plus there was the whole 'living in a house full of cats as a delicious bird' thing.]

[neverstudied]

if i start getting any weird urges after the grimer thing i think i would intentionally put myself in a coma for a while

[He's not dealing with that, thanks.]

i was a zorua for a while too. haven't really noticed anything different since then, except that i've been wanting to gamble more often

[schachmeister]

Forgive me if I misunderstood you, but... you got turned into two different pokemon this weekend?

[Armin isn't doubting his words! Let's face it, they all got turned into freaking pokemon! At that point, the number of pokemon they got turned into is a minor quibble. He's mainly just surprised because so far he hadn't heard about anyone turning into more than one species. What gives? Why are things different in this case? It's just fuel on the fire that is his curiosity and natural drive to understand things.]

[neverstudied]

yyep. i think ray was a few different pokemon too. grimer and gengar

cannot put into words how much i hated us both being grimer

[schachmeister]

Did you not enjoy being grimers?
