An unpopcorning of a lunatic... Open RP

Popcorn!

...What?

Tenna patted herself over for a few long seconds, spastically, her eyes flickering around the room as her hands settling upon her head and grabbed at her spiky black hair. Er. She was in a giant room. Filled with popcorn kernels. Which actually wasn't such a strange revelation, for Tenna, really - it was actually extremely... awesome - but that... huh. It was definitely a first. Watching her name disappear off of a plaque in the room, though, that might've made it onto the odd list.

Reeking of butter, still holding onto her head, and furrowing both eyebrows in a comical manner, Tenna took a few steps around, puzzled, glancing around the room at all the other kernels. She started a bit towards the door, and stopped again, doing a double-take, as if to check that, yep, it was a still popcorn.

And then, of course, exploded out into the hallway with a Xena-like yell, finally releasing her head to land in a ninja pose and glance to her surroundings. Hmm. Stone. And torches. A painting. Some suit of armor.

Dear God, she was a knight. It was the only explanation.

Devi, still floating on air (http://community.livejournal.com/hogwarts_hocus/1208864.html?view=61944864#t61944864) from the last few days, was fortuitously wandering past the popcorn room when Tenna came bursting into the hallway. She stopped dead.

"Tenna?"

Fortuitous, very fortuitous! One might even call it 'suspicious', how conveniently people walk by things in this castle!

But, nonetheless, Tenna's eyes landed on Devi and, well, she was already in her ninja pose, still, when the woman walked in, but she froze for a few seconds longer, just kind of staring for a moment. "Devi?!" she finally exclaimed with just as much enthusiasm in her voice, eyes widening to comical widths. "Sweet baby Jeebus, you're a knight too!"

And then, of course, you know, bounded towards Devi for a hug.

Devi staggered--she'd forgotten how forcefully Tenna could launch herself at someone. The hug transferred a lot of butter and salt from Tenna's shirt to hers, but she was too stunned to care.

"Did you just...wake up?" she asked, remembering how...gooey...she'd been, when she first unpopped. "And what the hell are you talking about? I'm not a knight. I don't think you are, either."

[assmeat-hunger.livejournal.com]

Very forcefully, by now. She often practiced on hobos. Well, until one had gone into cardiac arrest. Literally. Then it was heart-healthy-looking strangers, mostly. And, hey, it was Devi! Not inside her room! Hell, to the best of Tenna's knowledge, Devi had been inside there for months before... Tenna transformed into popcorn? ...Something here was peculiar.

"I... don't... know," she replied in a quick, forced voice, finally releasing Devi and taking a bound back to glance around spastically, much like her park squirrel self. "I think I was a piece of popcorn! Which, you know, I don't think that's happened before. Do I taste like a movie theater?!" She waved a hand in Devi's face, expectantly, eyes wide.

Only... Aww, she wasn't a knight? That was disappointing, and her shoulders slumped a bit. "I'm not a kah-niggit?" she asked a bit sadly, giving the Monty Python pronunciation as she tilted her head. "Then... why... castle?"

[immunityordeath.livejournal.com]

Devi blinked, wondering how much (if anything) Tenna remembered about...Before.

"You were popcorn," she said, brushing salt off her shirt. "So was I, for a while...don't ask me why, I don't have a clue. How much do you remember? I mean, of everything before you...popcorned?" The fact that she was surprised by the castle was not a good sign. "I know I forgot a lot, when I came back--there's still a lot I don't remember. Sometimes it comes back, sometimes it doesn't...." Oh God, had Spooky come back with her? Please, please let her have lost it...

[assmeat-hunger.livejournal.com]

Devi wasn't tasting her hand. Tenna made a bit of a frowny face and tried it on her own; a big, experimental lick up her palm. Yep, movie theater.

"Uhhh," she replied, long and drawn out as she glanced around at the walls and blinked a bit. To be honest, she hadn't been in the school all that long in the first place - - but one would think she would have at least remembered coming to Hogwarts. "Well, I don't remember being a KNI-" She stopped herself before she finished the world, trailing off into one long syllable before she picked it back up again as, "Iiiiinnnnn a castle..."

The state as to Spooky was unknown at the moment. Spooky could appear at any time, really. He just hadn't had an opportunity to, yet.

"Okay, so we're kind of starting from scratch here. That's probably not a bad thing--" until you find out about Nny, oh God "--we can just show you around and stuff. It's pretty damn unreal here, at first." Devi paused, considering. "Well, okay, more than just at first. I think you'll like it, though. Especially the karaoke." She had an all-too-clear vision of Tenna belting something out in the middle of the Great Hall.

[assmeat-hunger.livejournal.com]

Tenna could only wonder vaguely what the hell was so odd about a ca--well, a castle was very odd, actually, to the normal human being. Tenna, not being the normal human being, of course, considered it no more out of the ordinary than her usual antics. But, then again, she'd also ran her car into a nursery before. And squashed about nine small children. So. Her perception may have been a bit skewed, to say the least. But, still. Castle! Kind of weird. Not weird enough for her to start freaking out yet. She'd save that for when the whole 'magic' thing came out.

"Karaoke, hmmmm?" she asked excitedly, letting the 'hmm' grow long and drawn out and... slightly obnoxious. She actually... she had a glimpse of a thought of singing... something. Karaoke-related. Upon Devi's mentioning of it. ...Weird. "Castles have karaoke?"

[immunityordeath.livejournal.com]

"This one does." Devi fought an urge to smack her forehead--best friend though Tenna might be, she was still inarguably weird. "And a lot of other things. Magic, aliens, zombies, serial killers, minor gods, angels, an Antichrist...you name it." And no Spooky. Thank God, no Spooky.

[assmeat-hunger.livejournal.com]

'Weird' might have been a bit of a... er... 'politically correct' word to call Tenna, really. But right now, that was beside the point. Because magic? Aliens?! Zombies?! SERIAL KILL--wait. That one might not be too good. Or beat out zombies. ...Whatever. SERIAL KILLERS?!

Tenna's eyes bugged out considerably, jaw dropping a bit as she glanced around at the walls. "School, I may molest you," she mumbled, almost in awe, under her breath, and finally looked back to Devi, eyes still comically wide. "Really?"

[immunityordeath.livejournal.com]

Molest the school...if it was anybody but Tenna, she'd be extremely worried. As it was Tenna, such comments were perfectly normal.

"Yeah, really. We've got a little bit of everything. Do you remember anything about the house system?" Oh God, did she ever know anything about the STFU suite? This could get...sticky.

[assmeat-hunger.livejournal.com]

"House... system?" she asked slowly, enunciating each syllable like it was a strange, foreign language that she was completely unfamiliar with. Basically, it was Tenna language for 'No', accompanied by a few long blinks. "I remember..." She glanced around the halls for a few long minutes, eye squinted in thought. "Mushroom tea! (http://community.livejournal.com/hogwarts_hocus/46409.html?thread=2010953#t2010953)" And paused again, for emphasis. Or something. "That's it. Right now. I theeeenk."
