itwillbeokayClementine hadn't thought twice about trying out that weird machine. It seemed fun at the time, getting a fortune, even though she hadn't really understood the message that came out of it. Something about being stronger or something like that - she had stuffed it in her pocket and promptly forgot it was there. That night, she got in her long gown pajamas - it had a big sleeping bunny on the front of it, and was her favorite - and went to sleep.
The next morning, everything seemed wrong.
At first, she was so half-asleep she almost thought it was a dream. That lasted all of a few seconds, until she realized she was staring down at herself from where she was laying, still tangled up in sheets, and not recognizing at all what she was looking at. Her same clothes were still on, but much shorter - barely covering her much larger body. She sat up, her heart pounding, and for a moment all she could do was look.
When she realized it wasn't a dream, she practically scrambled, nearly tripping twice, all the way to Andrea's room. It was still early, so she was still asleep. Waking her up wasn't something she liked doing, but she didn't know what else to do.
"Andrea?" she called, her voice quivering with panic.

Date: 2013-02-22 02:17 pm (UTC)"There was a weird game I tried. It gave me something like the paper in a fortune cookie," she said. That was the only weird thing she saw, but now that she thought about it, the fortune was a little weird, too.

"We should talk to Fred, probably," she decided. "She knows more about magic than I ever will."

Date: 2013-02-28 04:01 pm (UTC)Leaving Bailey sleeping on her bed, she stood up too, clasping her hands behind her back. Maybe things would be alright, for now. She just hoped it wouldn't last too long.
