002 - Octopus's Garden In the Shade

[thebeastwithout]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Today on the hot mess that is Retrospec, somebody's either fallen asleep on their keyboard or allowed their cat to play with the computer for too long, 'cause there's a solid string of this for about a minute straight.]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Garfield Logan added 3 new photos - in Huntington Avenue, Recollé
2 mins

[The first photo is a blurry image of Gar screaming, with only his head and upper chest visible. Something long and twisty is visible at the edge of the frame.

The second is a slightly less blurry image of a... realistic-looking octopus tentacle, for some reason.

The last is an image of Gar's bare chest underneath a ripped shirt, which no one ever really wanted to see, but we're all being traumatized today so just go with it. Everything looks normal up until the part where his shoulder attaches to the octopus tentacle in the previous picture.

It's kinda gross.]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I'm glad to hear it!

... So that means you have transformation powers?

That's amazing actually

[thebeastwithout]

oh crap
do i????

what if i'm just like

slowly mutating and i can push it back a little bit

[nachetanya]

Well that's amazing too in its own way.

[thebeastwithout]

yeah ok i like the other kind of amazing better let's hope for that

what should i do now

do i just

pretend nothing's happened and keep going

[nachetanya]

Honestly, that might be all we can do? I just had to pretend that red eyes are normal (which I know is not nearly as bad a tentacle arm) and carry on.

You could try to see if you can master how and when you mutate?

[thebeastwithout]

...ok
ok i can handle that

...i keep imagining this happening in the middle of dinner and that'll probably make it happen so

just don't think about it

[nachetanya]

Good luck with that!

Oh and show me that in person sometime!

[thebeastwithout]

cool
thanks for the help
that probably could a' been worse

maybe i can whip this out in class sometime if i want the teacher to emergency dismiss everyone or something

[nachetanya]

Oh no, that's so underhanded!
