At first the sensation is… <span class="mu-i">unnerving</span>, to say the least. Seriously though–you feel like your nerves are being undone. How you know what that feels like is an alien concept to you, but then again you’re currently having an alien consciousness scootch in between yours and Ly’s, so…
“Are you alright, Stanley? I can take over if you’d li-”
“No, no,” Teevor interrupts, placing a calming hand on Sybil’s pale shoulder, “this is merely a step of the process–Stanley might be a little lightheaded, so just-”
Actually, you mutter as you feel your new tenant finally settle in, you feel…
<span class="mu-r">Good!</span>
<span class="mu-i">REALLY</span> good, actually–like you just drank a glass full of bubbles or something! Demonstrating your newfound energy with a quick cartwheel, you give your mildly-concerned onlookers a reassuring grin! You haven’t done one of those since, like, Thread 1!
“Gotta say, kid, I don’t feel half bad either!” Ly remarks as you unconsciously start shadow boxing in front of Talbot’s still-unresponsive form! <span class="mu-i">RIIIIGHT?</span> You should have hosted a demon <span class="mu-i">ages</span> ago!
“<span class="mu-r">Don’t take this the wrong way, big sis,</span>” Adds yet <span class="mu-i">another</span> disembodied voice in your head, “<span class="mu-r">but you’re… you’re comfy! REALLY comfy!</span>”
Thanks, you chirp, not bothering to call her out on the ‘<span class="mu-i">Big Sis</span>’ usage again! Busting out a quick pirouette, you pump your fist triumphantly before returning to relative normalcy.
Well, <span class="mu-i">your</span> normalcy, that is.
“<span class="mu-r">Don’t worry–I’ll keep my feeding under control, okay? You won’t even know I’m here!</span>” Continues the demon in a chipper tone rivaling yours! “<span class="mu-r">Oh, and if you ever need a boost, just ask! I can try to work some magic…</span>”
Ooh, you mutter, foreboding… but in a <span class="mu-i">good</span> way! Turning around with renewed pep in your step, it dawns on you that you still have a little more <span class="mu-b">POWER</span> to obtain–namely that stuff hanging around in <span class="mu-r">THE WITCH’S</span> bones!
Scurrying over to where your new renter left them, you watch with mild disinterest as the High Scholar’s remains still twitch and move on the ground!
“Guess she ain’t all gone yet, huh?” Ly remarks as you peruse the bones.
Yea, you frown, you wonder where she ended up?
