Then... this works for me. Whenever you are ready, I am too. I am glad that there is this alternative method, now. And that you thought to ask if it works in the reverse.

[strateelgic]

Excellent. Then if you'll take my hand? And we can speak the words together.

[Those words being:

"Under eyes of the two moons
Tonight is a path I choose.
By your grace and your trust
Let me walk a day in your shoes."]

[heavyliesthecrown]

[He takes his hand and says the incantation along with him.]

Under eyes of the two moons
Tonight is a path I choose.
By your grace and your trust
Let me walk a day in your shoes.

[With the words spoken, one of the oddest feelings Leviathan has ever felt washes over him and his sense of physical perspective becomes drastically skewed as he's all at once several inches shorter. There's no chance to adjust, the change is instantaneous.

Just as sudden, and slightly more painful, is the shepherd staff connecting to his forehead. The position, it seems, is coming along with him. The blue collar, meanwhile, will disappear from his neck and reappear on his original body, which Crescendo now inhabits.

He rubs at his brow. There's something else, too. Something that's making him feel distinctly uncomfortable after the switch.

Ah, right. His clothes are now the wrong color for his flock.]

[unlittledcat]

[Suddenly his perspective changes and he is much taller than he could have ever remembered. He blinks as he stares down at what... certainly is him. Or at least, is his body. And then he cannot help but to frown.

Reaching down he lifts Leviathan up from beneath the arms so that he is about to his own eye level now.]

Unbelievable. The staff immediately returned to you. Ugh. _{I was so looking forward to being a shepherd, too.}

[eelfatedcrown]

It looks like our souls are to remain in our original flocks.

... [Is picked up.]

I shouldn't be surprised that this is the first thing you do.

[unlittledcat]

I can lift you as I normally am, but never like this due to the difference in our heights. So it is a novel new experience for me. ♪

[eelfatedcrown]

You're fortunate that I'm fond enough of you to allow this manhandling.

[unlittledcat]

What would you do to me otherwise?

[eelfatedcrown]

That's for me to know.

[unlittledcat]

I simply wish to give you the Crescendo experience.

[It's just fun. He does put him down though.]

Is there anything more we must do while like this? It lasts only a day, you said?

[eelfatedcrown]

[Brushes himself off unnecessarily.]

Just the kiss once it ends. There shouldn't be anything else.

[unlittledcat]

That is easy enough then. I shall do my best to play the part of a proper eel today. ♪

[ . . . ]

I will not need to take a potion or anything will I?

[eelfatedcrown]

Not at all! That was the whole point.

[unlittledcat]

I had somewhat wondered if I would change immediately into a mer myself. But I suspect your current potion ensured I did not immediately change then.

[eelfatedcrown]

I wasn't sure either, honestly, but it didn't seem likely. Of course if you had I would have simply carried you to the pond.

[unlittledcat]

If I were to swim in the water right now, would I be able to transform into a mer at will? Would I have to do anything special?

[eelfatedcrown]

You should be able to... The potion I'm taking remains active for a few changes, so all you need do is will it to happen.

[unlittledcat]

I wish to swim!

[eelfatedcrown]

Of course you do.

[He chuckles.]

There's always the pond...

[unlittledcat]

The only reason I will not protest something as baby as the pond or the lazy river is because this is not my own body.

[eelfatedcrown]

Something as "baby"...?

[unlittledcat]

They are the only places you do not force promises of taking someone else with me.

[eelfatedcrown]

And that makes them "baby"?

How silly.
