In which Lash attemps to type normally with only a mouse

[thewunderkind]

[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

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

[Pause. The cogs are turning. Slowly.]

... Wait. Lash?

1/2

[Yay you finally got it!]

Flaaffy!

[She is positively beaming at this point]

2/2

[wunderbaaa.livejournal.com]

[Except she realizes that she's back to square one because Surge does not like her very much and something about getting petted on the head felt pretty nice and soooob maybe he's not such a bad dude. Except she can't tell him that because it just comes out as unspoken words.

So she does the next best things and tries to give him the roundest, cutest eyes she can muster and assumes a non threatening position.]

[badasstrenches.livejournal.com]

[Oh no. Surge did not like Lash. He disliked her as much as he disliked Ganondorf or Char. Which was a lot.

... Except she was giving him giant, adorable sheep eyes. She was currently a Flaaffy. An electric type. Surge just couldn't stay mad at electric Pokemon.

And maybe... he didn't really hate her. It was mostly because she had claimed Zapdos for her own team. But he refused to give that feeling a different name.

He sighed.]

Alright, alright. I'm not mad or anything. Not like you did anything wrong. This time.

[The head rubbing continued.]

So... what's it like bein' a Pokemon?

[wunderbaaa.livejournal.com]

[Awww yeah, she's totally charming and awesome. Lash tries to explain how interesting it is, but it comes out as nothing but a series of Fla and fy's all over. Sorry Surge, it's hard to explain when you don't understand. Unless...]

Fla!

[She suddenly realizes that what she taught Zapdos might work. It all depends of Surge even knows Morse code. He is a war guy maybe he did. Hopefully]

H-e-l-l-o.

[badasstrenches.livejournal.com]

Morse code?

[Why yes! Surge did indeed know Morse code. How convenient.]

Heh, should've known you'd know Morse code. Well, that's one way to communicate.

[wunderbaaa.livejournal.com]

[More tapping]

I taught Zapdos how to speak Morse code in animal form so I can talk to him! [Beam beam beam.] I still don't get why no one can understand us but everyone else who transformed.

[badasstrenches.livejournal.com]

[Surge stopped rubbing Lash's head so he could shrug. He was also pointedly ignoring the comment about Zapdos.]

At least for Pokemon, most people can't understand wild Pokemon. And as for the animals, humans don't normally understand them anyway.

If anything, it's weird that the Pokemon and non-Pokemon animals can understand each other. But I guess that's just the sort of crazy thing that happens at this school.

[wunderbaaa.livejournal.com]

Maybe it's because of whatever affected us? We can't turn back into human forms either. Nothing works. Even for those Pokemon who were turned into other animals.

[badasstrenches.livejournal.com]

Hm... Maybe. This would all be so much easier if we knew how the whole thing started. Not that anything at this school is ever easy.

[wunderbaaa.livejournal.com]

Well it wasn't the food. Everyone was affected at the same time and in different places. Maybe it's a magic spell, or a global ray aimed at all of us? But why would certain people not be affected?

[badasstrenches.livejournal.com]

Yeah, not the food. I ate in the cafeteria a few times and I'm still the same.

[Surge folded his arms.]

Magic? It's possible. There are probably plenty of people here who are capable of turnin' people into other things. But of this magnitude? It'd have to be someone with years of practice, I think. [A pause.] Or no practice whatsoever and this is trainin' gone wrong.

But I guess a ray would make sense too. There are a handful of people here who could build such a thing.

[Pointed look at Lash.]

[wunderbaaa.livejournal.com]

[HEY. HEY. HEY!]

I was never responsible for any epidemic this school has had! Except for April Fools but that's not turning anyone into anything. Besides, the science involved to transform human beings into other creatures is too complex for now. Sure mixing DNA and having them grow as such but instant transformation is not something I would know how to do!

[badasstrenches.livejournal.com]

Alright, fine.

[Surge shrugged. He still didn't know whether to believe her or not, but he wasn't exactly the smartest when it came to science. He decided to give her the benefit of the doubt. For now.]

...

Sorry. For suspectin' you.

[He mentally cursed his own chivalry.]

[wunderbaaa.livejournal.com]

Hey it is pretty cool you suspected me in the first place. It means you acknowledge I am pretty smart! Tee hee hee.

So did you see anyone else turned into other things?

[badasstrenches.livejournal.com]

[Surge just stared. That wasn't what he was thinking at all. But leave it to the laser crazy girl to interpret it like that. He simply shook his head.]

Yeah, I've seen a few. Goose actually turned into a Starly. That's a small, flyin' type Pokemon.

[He chuckled.] Though I've mostly been payin' attention to anyone who changed into electric types.
