Open RP: Wherein Potion accidents result in... happiness?

[canes-can-kill.livejournal.com]

When you're stuck in a castle with hardly any interesting medical cases and a slight tendency to be self-destructive when you're bored, trying to make advanced potions ends up being a really good idea. Especially when you've never tried to make a simple potion, because everything is that much more dangerous and unpredictable.

He'd tried to make some kind of pain relief potion, which he thought had turned out okay. So, it was an obscenely bright orange when it was supposed to be dark blue. That didn't matter. In the end, taking some of it sounded like a good idea, at the time.

Except for the fact that he'd mixed up one of the ingredients. Instead of fluxweed, he'd used Ipomoea violecea (more commonly known as the "beach moonflower"). To House, it didn't seem all that weird when the walls suddenly turned blue and a giant elephant started dancing with an anteater on top of the tables. It was pretty funny, actually. And naturally, the only reaction when the anteater walked out of the room was to follow it.

With a giggle that could only be termed as 'explosive', House started wandering the hallways to follow the anteater - caneless, and it was kinda weird that he couldn't walk properly. But these things matter not to a man when he is following a purple anteater. Life was great! And he had a mission, here, after all.

((Be warned; you may get hugged or talked at a lot.))

"I am having a wonderful day!" House agrees happily. It's probably a good thing he's hallucinating this guy a lot shorter than he actually is (which means he's staring somewhere around Valentine's knees), otherwise he might have started on a bad trip about vampires. "This is better than drugs!"

"Better than drugs? May I inquire as to what you're on, then? And if it's sufficiently amusing to me, would you mind sharing?" If it was anything less than undiluted atropine, Valentine is going to be very disappointed.

Now there was an interesting question. House looked like he was concentrating very hard for the answer, but he was actually just staring hard at the tiny group of gnomes that were frolicking at Valentine's feet. "The gnomes don't know the answer," he said slowly, "But... I think if you ask them nicely, you might get a pot of gold."

Gnomes. Valentine narrowed down his mental list of possibilities. Most of what was left (an extensive list, of course) was rather fun and possibly worth obtaining. He decides to have a little fun and humor the man. "Oh leprechauns!" he sings, waving his leg around like he's scattering knee-high people.
