I'm feeling distinctly more human again. Thanks to everyone who came to check on me and help take care of me... as... difficult as it was to pretty much be a pet turtle.

Looks like I'm just in time for the expected Castle celebration, too.

[Phoebe]

Thanks for being so sweet about the whole thing. I suppose you're used to this kind of awkwardness by now, huh?

[Lemony Snicket]

I really appreciate the prompt response. I'm not sure what I would have done if nobody had replied to me.

[Carson Beckett]

Sorry about that. Again. I guess I should have expected that to happen since my clothes fell off when I transformed, and I had no idea when I was actually going to change back, but, still, I'm sorry. Okay, I'm going to stop apologizing now, or else I'll keep doing it. I'll buy you a drink or... something to make it up to you for having to take care of me.

[Maladict]

I wanted to give you special thanks for deciphering my attempt at turtle charades.

[Dave Strider]

Thanks for not laughing. ... much. And for coming to check on me.

Don't mention it. It was an...interesting challenge.

[she laughs]

You could say that. And you're welcome. I'm glad I was able to help you.

Tell me about it. My mind was intact, but I couldn't speak at all.

I'm hoping it never happens to you, but if it ever does, I'll be sure to return the favor.

It's the sort of loss I'd prefer to avoid, for myself.

Thank you. I appreciate that. I was a cat not too long ago and that wasn't so bad. At least I could move around easily.

I would have preferred a cat, yes. Or a dog. Speaking of dogs, I hope Blue wasn't too much trouble.

If there has to be a next time, maybe I'll be something fun. Like a cat or a dog, or a bird.

no problemo sis
what the hell happened there

I'm not exactly sure how they count as 'fun'.

Point. They'd be at least slightly less frustrating than a turtle, though.

I gather that turning people into animals temporarily is something the castle just... does. I've seen others call it a temporary loss.

Oh no he wasn't any trouble at all. I'm sure he'll be happy to get home, though.

You'd be able to move a little faster, for a start.

Definitely. Thanks for looking after him.

And be more mobile in general. I could walk and turn my head and write- in some fashion- but that was it.

And that's just plain not fun.

oh right
i think i remember something like that happening to lalonde when i first got here
only she was a cat
i dunno if thats better or worse

for what its worth you were a pretty sick turtle

Any time. Would you like me to bring him by now?

Oh, but of course! I would expect that you would do the same, being a member of the medical profession, and all. ... Your friend Carson was quite prompt as well. I'm glad you have so many who care about you.

Most definitely- it's what I swore an oath to do, after all.

... I do, don't I? I'm pretty lucky. I'm... well, I'm a little shy, so it's sometimes hard for me to make friends. Especially in, well, a place like this.

At least a cat would be more mobile. And I have a feeling I'd get a lot of petting and scratching and feeding.

Well, that makes me feel a bit better about the whole thing. I probably was terribly cute.

Please do- I'm in my room right now.

Nope. I like being animated.

I imagine anyone would feel that way.
