In which Lash attemps to type normally with only a mouse

[OOC - feel free to have action logs where you run into her using this as well]

starting signal
thanks to my quick thinking comma i was able to install a morse code decoder on this borrowed computer brackets as my normal computer is not available since it cannot recognize my fingerprints as i lack thumbs brackets fullstop
it allows me to type using only the mouse and morse code which makes spelling mistakes only limited to what the programmers of this program have made fullstop
it is primitive but does the job fullstop
if anyone knows morse code apart from me comma please contact me and i will come install it for you fullstop
for the rest of you too bad you suck tee hee hee fullstop

[Surge was walking down the hallway. It was awfully hard to tell who was who when almost everyone was transformed into animals. At least there were plenty of recognizable Pokemon.]

[Nearby, there was a Flaaffy rubbing it's legs on the nearby carpets, enjoying lighting it's tail bulb on and off. On and off. On and off.]

[It was barely there, but Surge sensed a building of static electricity. Interesting. Glancing around, he finally saw the Flaaffy.

... A Flaaffy that was purposefully lighting it's tail on and off. That was kind of really funny. Surge chuckled.]

Havin' fun there?

[GREAT it was MCDOUCHE JEALOUS THE FIRST. Of course he wouldn't recognize her.]

Go away. [Except it just sounded like she said her name adorably.]

[Yeah, sorry Lash, Surge couldn't understand you. For some reason, her voice sounded... almost annoyed? Nah, he must've been hearing things.]

Since you're still doin' that, I'm goin' to assume that was a "yes." Have you tried shootin' sparks without usin' static electricity?

[Go away she doesn't want to...waaait what? The possibility of shooting sparks without using static electricity?!]

[Hey, hey look her eyes suddenly look much more wide eyed and sparkly than before.]

[Laughing, Surge took Lash's reaction as a "no."]

Yeah, Flaaffy's can generate their own electricity. No need to use carpets or anything. You can actually store electricity in your wool. It's just a matter of releasing it.

[OH. Maybe she should have read more on them, but gym leaders using that Pokémon were pretty rare and not the type of creatures Lash would openly pursue. At least until now.]

Fyyy?

[She points to her hair and collar. Surge there is so little wool on her compared to a Mareep. She then points to an electrical current. Can she get electricity from there?]

[Incoming invasion of personal space. Do you accept this--T O O B A D . Surge felt the wool around Lash's neck. He could faintly feel some electricity within the hair. Not much, but enough for him to sense.]

You could be able to. I'm not too sure how it happens since I'm not a Pokemon. But I think all you need to do is imagine using the electricity. Concentrate and you should be able to access it.

[OH.

MY GOD.

WHY DID THIS FEEL SO GOOD?!

Admittedly no one had really petted and/or massaged Lash before it was like her body just gave in and she nearly fell over from the physical contact. But she did hear his words. Imagining lightning huh? Worth a shot.]

Flaaaaa!

[She closed her eyes and imagined the thunder Zapdos shot out. Something seemed to click from inside. HEr entire body felt alight and then..]

FFYYYY!

[...the world's least impressive lightning bolt. But it was a start!]

[It wasn't the biggest spark he had ever seen, but it was a start. Surge grinned and gave her a thumbs up.]

See? Nothin' to it. Just work up from there and eventually you'll be able to form even bigger bolts.

[THAT SOUNDS AWESOME! Except she doesn't really want to be a Pokemon forever sob.]

Fyyyy...

[Surge you aren't such a bad guy when you're not being a meanie jealous head.]

[Here, have a non-condescending-actually-somewhat-fond pat on the head. If only he knew who this mystery sheep was. Alas.]

Well, it shouldn't take that long. Considerin' this school, the transformation should probably last only a week. But I'm sure you can get it before that.

[A pause.]

Actually, if you don't mind my askin', who are you? It's hard to tell with almost everyone changed and all.

[OH SHIT WHAT TO DO NOW.]

Fla?

[She just stands there. You'll have to guess for her.]

[What aaaaawww. Surge was never very good at guessing games.]

Gonna make me play Twenty Questions or something? [He chuckled.] Well alright.

Are you a student or a teacher? You can nod for "student" or shake your head for "teacher."

[The patting suddenly changed to a head rub.]

[OH SHIT THAT IS GOING TO BE THE SHORTEST GAME EVER. B-but the head rubs.]

[Slowly there is both a nod and a shake of the head.]

[Lash. You just answered both "yes" and "no" to a question. You're doing it wrong.]

Uh... so you're both a student... and a teacher? What does that even... Were you a student before but are currently a teacher?

[She shakes her head, no.]

Okay...

[Surge is so bad at this game hrng.]

Are you a TA then?

[Noooooo again, she's just a student who is also a teacher why is that so confusing sob.]

Fine, how about... uh... You're a teacher who attends classes? Maybe just graduated or something?

[Tentative nod]

Flaaa!

[Suddenly an idea! She points to herself, and then to her eyes.]

[Suddenly, charades! Which was bad because Surge was even worse at that game.]

Uh... you want me to look at your eyes?

[Hope that's right because doop doop staring contest.]

[Craaaap.]

Fyyy!

[She tries to point to her eyelashes. And then to his. Maybe this will help?]

... Eyelash? Eyelash. What does that...

[Pause. The cogs are turning. Slowly.]

... Wait. Lash?
