[Action for roommates (2-19)
Maka died last week. She'll wake up in her bed, but before then, in the few seconds before she wakes up, there's a flash of light and she transforms, growing blades from every inch of her body, like a flower made of deadly metal with her as the center. As quickly as they appear, they vanish again.

Then comes waking up, and sleep paralysis. For ten minutes, she is trapped motionless in her bed, unable to move any part of her body. She panics, trying to fight it, but there's nothing she can do. It passes, eventually, and she sits up with a strangled screaming sob, shaking, arms wrapped around her torso.

[Eventually, she makes her way to the terminals, and figures out how to post.]

Anybody here know how to fight hand-to-hand? A spar would be a good way to work off some energy after last week.

Why not?

I'm not sure I could come back out again.

Why wouldn't you be able to come back?

That body isn't really sentient. It's the difference between a head and a leg, asking someone to cut off their leg or cut off their head and live in the other part.

So you became sentient once you became a projection?

[Action]

[heavenscorpse]

Mhm, basically.

[Action]

[the_word_is]

And you think you won't remain sentient if you go back to that body?

[Action]

[heavenscorpse]

I'm pretty sure.

[Action]

[the_word_is]

Have you tried it before?

[Action]

[heavenscorpse]

No, but it's scary.

[Action]

[the_word_is]

Lots of things are.

[heavenscorpse]

Not coming back would be more scary than anything.
