Tall still remains completely still. he's breathing, but somehow...he seems a little eerie.
Vinnie pokes at him, "still, this Kid has ALWAYS been up at the crack of dawn--I wonder what's wrong with him today. You sure you didn't poison him or something Damien?" she asks jokingly.
((is someone *cough cough Darad* going to realize he's body is currently vacant? cuz it is))
someone with high enough sensitivity could feel there is something wrong though. Tall is sleeping, but there is no essence, no life in his body.....

Damien shakes his head, but from the look on his face, he's obviously wondering why he didn't think of that.
Darad pulls himself out of the shadows lazily. "Aka..." He whines. "My head hurts..."
SHe rolls her eyes. "That's what you get when you OD on remnant magic. I told you to share..."
"I did share.... WHat's worng with him?" he asks, looking at Tall. "He was fine last night."
"He's sleeping, Darad," AKa replies, unamused.
"I can see that. Having a magickal hangover does not affect my sight, thank you. I mean, why is he empty?"
"What?"

Everyone stares at the shadowy cat.
Vinnie looks down at him, "What do you mean....empty?" Even she's being serious now.

"WHy is there nothing inside him? I mean, I'm not getting any signature from him," he glances back at Tall. "He's just a shell right now. WHatever makes Tall Tall is obviously taking a little break from this plane right now."
Aka's eye widen. "How do we fix it?"

"Oh MY GOD!!! You mean like--tall is DEAD or something!!!?" Vinnie says spastically, frets and paces back and forth before finally grabbing Damien's collar, "You DIDN'T poison him, RIGHT?" she growls in a terrifying sort of way. Strangely, it seems Vinnie had grown quite fond of Tall is a weird little brother way....

"NO I DIDN'T POISON HIM!" Damien says, shoving her hands away. "What do you think I am?"
Darad rolls him eyes. "He's not dead. He's just not here right now..."
Aka grabs Darad by the scruff of his neck. "How... Do... We... Fix... It..?" She hisses.
He shrugs. "Put him back where he was. He should show up eventually."

In the midst of the chaos, you here a vase shatter in Tall's room. Vinnie drops the idiot, "Did you guys hear that?" her eyes go wide, and she thrusts the door open.

Zin's eyes are wide. "Put him back! Put him back! Put him back!" SHe's lsightly panicked.
AKa shoves her out of teh way, and lifts Tall's body off her bed, supported by shadows and moves him down the hall and back into his room. She sets him down on his bed, carefully avoiding the vase fragments.

they all feel something cold and omnious gust by them frantically, and then finally comes to rest.
Tall abruptly sits up, looking more disgruntled than a wet cat, and points, "Who the HELL moved my body!!!" he shouts in a rather uncharacteristic frazzled tone.
"umm....?" vinnie meekly puts up a hand, "sorry? oops?"
Tall stares up at the 5, the momentary angery quickly disappating. He sighs, the initially anxiety also leaving him, and runs a hand through his hair to settle it, "Sorry--that was no way to greet the lot of you," he says with a weak smile, "one just tends to get a little...antzy when in a spirit form with no place to return to....." he grimaces a little, "so..um...good morning?" he smiles apologetically for the outburst.
"whoa-whoa whoa!! Care to explain what just happened?" Vinnie interjects, looking around
((got more to say, so just ask questions or look confused or something...))

Zin's eyes are still wide.
Damien raises an eyebrow, obviously unamused.
Darad mutters under his breathe, "I told you so..."
Aka glares at Darad, the looks back at Tall. "I think we'd all liek to know what happened..."

((begin the Q & A....))
"eh..." he smiles sheepishly, pushing his two fingers together. "It's quite simple, really. I can astral project in my sleep; you know completely disconnecting with the body. I have perfect lucidity too....It's just something that has always come naturally for me...."
Vinnie looks at him, "You mean...you can SPY on people in your sleep?"
Tall, face palm. He looks up flustered again, "You really think I'm like that!?"
She shrugs, "Just stating a possibility..." her old grin is starting to form again.
"Yes, well, if we were to dive into ALL the possibilities, I could go farther than spying, I could technically posses you too." he says indignantly, "But technically I could posses anything--like that broken vase....though it wouldn't be very interesting."
"So--you could be like...DEAD and possessing someone and we'd never know?"
"No, it doesn't work like that. There's a tight connection between body and soul--I can only project for so long before I HAVE to come back--though my tops about a week....in any case, if you kill the body, the soul is either banished or becomes a wanderer, without much recollection. "
"Well--since you apparently do this a lot, why did you freak out now?"
"Isnt it obvious? Since SOMEBODY moved me!" he gives vinnie a look, "spirits don't have as much rational when they're just drifting. They need to be in a vessel to properly function, whether rock or actual body. The longer they're outside, the more of a poltergist they become like." he indicates to the broken vase, "and I was anxious since I didn't know where you put my body--it's frightening you know.
so please, next time I'm not waking up for whatever reason, just leave me be. It's physically impossible to wake me up anyways, and I'd prefer not repeating this incident."
"Well, why didn't you tell us?" vinnie raises an eyebrow.
he shrugs, "it didn't occur to me?" he smiles, "and no one ever asked?"
((anymore questions?))

Darad mutters again, " I told you..."
Aka whacks him across the back of the head. "Shut it."
"Owie... My head...." He rubs it and looks like a petulant child.
"I said shut it." SHe turns to Tall. SHe looks him up and down a few time, and then mutters, "You're weird." She then turns on her heel and goes back to her room.
Both Damien and Zin burst out laughing.

Tall blinks, then shrugs, "I figured so much....." he looks up at the rest of them, "well--if you don't mind, I'd like to get changed now. No more drama, no more magic, shoo," he hurries the rest out of his room and closes the door. a few moments later, you'd hear the shower.
"well, there's never a dull morning around here...." vinnie comments.

Zin nods. "Never, ever."
Damien looks at the door for a second. "DO you think Aka's bipolar?"
"What?!" Zin asks.
"I mean, one minute, she's practically killing her bodyguard shadowy- thing trying to figure out what's wrong with Tall and the next she's basicly ignoring him..."
ZIn opens her mouth, but can't think of a reply, so she shuts it.

"ahh--tis the mystery of a woman's heart," she says in a floatingly romantic tone, "how sweet--Valentine's day is in the air! what...isn't it actually Valentine's Day today?" tries fails to recollect the date.
"In any case Damien, didn't she treat you in just the same manner? With this 'bi-polarness'? Cuz I just fiugred that's how Aka is....or MAYBE she was so worried about him--she's just now upset that she made a scene in vain!! Maybe she's heart broken that Tall hadn't already told her every dark and passionate secret about himself in the past.....4 days!!!" she laughs.
"but seriously, i have no idea. you've known her longer than i have!"
