[Happy that the curse is over, Tidus thought it would be a great idea to share that fact with everyone else. He turns on the video, in the park. How long has he been there? Who knows. He still hasn't bothered to choose a place to live yet.]

Hey, I'm back to normal! Now you get to see what I really look like!

[He holds the SFC out further, you know in that predictable way people do with things like cellphone cameras, smiling brightly and starts walking around.]

See? My first curse. It feels like some kind of rite of passage or something. I guess now I'm officially a member of this city, huh? So, what do all of you do when things aren't in total chao--w-whoa!

[He loses his balance and falls, ending the feed. A few moments later, he turns it back on.]

But yeah, I look way better now.

[While there's now a human on the opposite side of the spectum, there is an old, white Lombax on this end, staring at the boy's antics and raising a brow.]

One week and you're already forgetting how to walk without a tail?

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

[Tidus rubs the back of his head, smiling and looking embarrassed.] Well when you factor in the giant ears, different shaped head and huge feet--

Wait! That voice-- You're a cat, General!

[Video]

[double_edged]

Yes.

...we've discussed this.

And you're human, correct?

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

And your wrinkles! They're gone!

Yeah, I'm back to my incredibly good looking human form.

[Video]

[double_edged]

And you have pasty pink skin that feels very uncomfortable without fur. Zoni, how do you creatures get by?

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

Hey, I have a great tan, thank you. I could ask the same about you. Isn't it annoying to have to have a hole in your pants?

[Video]

[double_edged]

Considering the Lombax tailors have all since vanished from my home universe, yes, it is a hassle.

[Fai is still stuck on the fact that his man apparently fell over..and he's not sure why. When the feed clicks back on he tilts his head a little.]

Are you alright?

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

Yeah, I'm good.

[He smiles at him, a little embarrassed but over it.]

[Video]

[behind_my_smile]

[Fai smiles back, glad to hear he didn't injure himself.]

I'm glad. So I guess you must be fairly new and had to deal with the curse. That must have been quite the welcome.

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

Yeah, it was pretty shocking at first. I could have been worse off though, I'm sure. Did the curse hit you?

[Video]

[behind_my_smile]

Surprisingly, no. I guess I was one of the lucky ones. I'm a little sad though...I would have liked to have a new ability for a little while!

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

I'm sure you won't be neglected on every curse. Maybe something even more fun will happen. Plus we couldn't choose our new abilities, which might not have turned out well.

video; hay babe

[seablaze]

Pffft. [There is nothing like something new to laugh at.

The Captain was getting cozy on a bench in the plaza.]

Don't go hurting yourself, lad. Jus' became an official member after all.

video; hey 8)

[blitz_acing]

It takes a lot more than that to hurt me.

[He scratches the back of his head and grins.]

video

[seablaze]

Good. This place likes throwing more at ya.

[Pondering for a moment.] What did you look like during the curse?

video

[blitz_acing]

I can take it! It can't be that bad.

I was a Lumbar...I mean Lombax! A lot better looking than any of the other ones, too. What about you?

video

[seablaze]

A merman. Made it a great hassle to get place to place having a tail instead of legs.

Don't jinx it there, bucko. We'll probably see in a couple weeks or more.

video

[blitz_acing]

What's a merman?

A couple of weeks? We don't get much of a break, do we?

[windfang]

Ah, so that truly was you in that form.

[ Hey Tidus, remember him? That really mean bird from earlier? Yeah, Yasha's had a healthy dose of humble pie since the last time they met. The Demigod realizes that his actions during the curse wasn't the most...noble.

However, we can forgive and forget, right? ]

...I certainly hope I won't be turned into a bird again.

[blitz_acing]

Oh, look it's the birdman.

[Tidus scoffs, looking to the side. He'll forgive Yasha. After he gives him a hard time.]

But you made such a nice bird.

[windfang]

[ Birdman? Is this how Yasha will be eternally remembered as? He sighs. ]

Enough of the teasing. I apologize for my actions.

[blitz_acing]

It's okay. You were just upset.

[windfang]

Perhaps, yet it excuses nothing. It's just not like me to get that...angry.

[ Lies. Yasha has his moments of pure rage too. ]

Your name? I should at least know your name after all this.

[blitz_acing]

Just try not to freeze me again and we're good?

[He smirks.]

I'm Tidus. Star Player of the Zanarkand Abes.
