Characters: Ganondorf (in Reno's body) and YOU.
Setting: Room 02-09 (closed), Lounge (Floor 38), Forest Island (Floor 32) Meadow (Floor 25) and Anywhere Else.
Format: Action .
Summary: Ganondorf didn't wake up in the right body. And now he's gonna pretend he is Reno [OU] for the duration of the event! How wonderful is this? His impersonation of Reno will be… More or less good, depending. Feel free to bother him!
Warning: This guy remains the Great Demon King / King of Evil. Awkwardness. Also tags will come from

evilhorizon.

Room 02-09 (Closed)
[ The first thing Ganondorf feels upon waking up is… Discomfort, unease of some sort? Something unnatural and twisted. As if before going to bed he had put his body in the locker and changed it for another one. Pretty much like how people change suits. Which of course he didn't. Technically, he could have possessed someone's body, but he would remember doing that. And it would honestly be the first time he'd possess someone on accident.

But then he realizes that there is… something wrong, something very wrong here, worse than what he felt upon waking up. His body doesn't feel nearly as massive and muscular as it usually does. The absolute lack of clothes doesn't help at all. What the hell tower? Upon closer inspection, he realizes his skin has changed color- Wait this reminds him of someone…

In fact upon closer inspecting, he then realizes there is a woman sleeping next to him. Equally lacking in the clothes department. Goddesses… Reno, no wonder you're such a flake. No wonder your reports all suck and are worthless. Maybe he's not a traitor after, maybe he's just an utter and complete idiot. Well, at least he'll have the occasion to confirm his doubts, once he'll be sure this is Reno's body.

Ganondorf is supposed to be a super-powerful being whose powers can one-hit kill most normal people. Unfortunately, when he tries to focus energy to kill that woman, nothing happens. Because yes, woman sleeping next to him just like that? Not allowed to live. Wait, not working? Now don't tell him his powers are gone as well? Jason, what in the world is that? You're not happy enough with modifying people's body and forcing them to copulate with strangers, but you take their powers as well? Sick man.

And lo, Elena gets pushed off the bed gracelessly by "Reno" as he sits and makes the weirdest faces. Probably not the wakeup call she expected.]

Lounge (Floor 38 – Open)
[ One of Reno's most common location in the tower is without a doubt the lounge. His little bar was even set up there. And so of course, you will find "Reno" there.

He settles down on one of the beanbag chairs and relaxes. This is both good in order to impersonate the real Reno and in order for Ganondorf to consider the situation and think. Think a lot. He is pretty much set on exploiting the situation to spy on Reno's friends and his little habits… And decide what would happen next week during the evil meeting.

So you'll find "Reno' there, relaxing on one of these chairs. ]

Forest island (Floor 32 – Open)
[ Next you will find "Reno" wandering the Forest Island on the 32nd Floor. The real Reno sometimes comes here to take some decent food, and with Jason providing food for the tower this month? It was to be expected that Reno would be here…

And lo, you shall see "Reno" here with a bag, taking whatever looks eatable and not poisoned. Because it would be a shame to get poisoned now after all. ]

Meadow (Floor 25 – Open)
[ Well well. Another one of Reno's most common location in the tower would be the meadow, where he would spend hours alone training and perfecting his skills. Certainly this was admirable- Keeping up a regular training rather than falling into decay. The Great Demon King of Evil could admire that.

Hence, you will find "Reno" doing much the same here, his EMR in hand for the usual training session. Who knows what may happen? Obviously, Ganondorf can't say he got any experience with the kind of weapon Reno uses, let alone with Materia. But he's skilled in many forms of combat and highly trained in most discipline, so someone stumbling upon "Reno" as he trains won't see much of a difference. ]

Anywhere Else (Open)
[ "Reno" will be wandering around the whole tower for these next five days, but most specifically to places where the real Reno is known to go at times, such as the Library on the 3rd Floor or the Media Room.

Feel free to bother him anywhere. ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ Ganondorf honstesly wishes he could care about this woman wincing and making loud noises out of pain, but he couldn't. Instead he reaches for the closest clothing- This looks awfully like what Reno usually wears. Shit. Seriously? That couldn't be right.

Even so he can't be bothered to put up an act just now and instead looks down at Elena with a confusion, disdain, horror and surprise, all at once. ]

That was for you sleeping in my bed.

[ Goddesses, what if it is her bed? If that's really Reno... No, it could be another one with similar clothes. Or just a freaking nightmare. So he's gonna wince as if he had a particularly rough headache. A good excuse as another to excuse Reno's different behavior. ]

... And that look is for you sleeping against me.

[She's just...gaping. To say that his behavior was shocking would be probably one of the biggest understatements she'd heard in quite some time. Crawling to her knees, she grabs a handful of the nearest portion of her sheets and pulls, using what fell free to cover herself up with.

She's set on perma-frown, brows furrowed in a slowly burning anger that was just starting to catch. The hell if she was going to be treated like some girl at the Honey Bee Inn]

Excuse me, but that's MY bed you're sitting in.

[Collecting more fabric as she moved, Elena rose to her feet, staring down at "Reno" with a haughty look. She couldn't quite figure that flash of emotions that he gave her as she sat there, staring up at him at utter disbelief. Sitting back down on the bed beside him, hands clutching the sheets at her breast, her eyes narrowed suspiciously.]

You weren't complaining about it last night. ....What's gotten into you?

Edited 2012-09-17 21:46 (UTC)

[ Her bed, huh...? Damn, first mistake. Okay, okay, he has to set his act and keep with it. And quickly to find an excuse for his behavior upon waking up. If only he had known about that upon waking up...

The expression on his face changes as she sits and replies to him. The disdain and horror progressively fade, leaving the surprise and confusion more obvious. He looks at her than shakes his head, speaking with a lower voice. ]

I... I don't know.

[ Better to say that than the truth after all.

He covers himself with the clothing, and suddenly looks a little bit apologetic, and pained as he brings a hand to his head. When in doubt, pretend you drank too much before going to bed, it will often works. ]

Goddammit, my head... What in Hyr- [A cough.] --Gaia's name did we drink yesterday?

.....

[She's still not 100% sure just what had gotten into him that would make him think that it was all right to thrust her so rudely from her own bed, but having a better understanding of what could happen in this place, she's apt to believe him. Hell, she had run into other people's dreams and been turned into a monster. What was a little amnesia?]

You know, for a guy who drank about half as much as I did, I'm surprised you can't remember even that much. [Which only amplified that faint itch that something was amiss. Leaning forward, she only stopped when she was nearly nose to nose with him, her eyes critical as she watched him move, acting almost as if she were sizing him up.] Maybe you and Rusty have been taste testing your different batches a little too much if you can't tell one vintage from the next.

[ Gosh, why was this woman so insistent? Why was she getting so close? can't you tell when someone wants to see you dead and the only reason you still live is because they can't do it? Alright, alright, calm down Ganondorf.

He looks at her with a neutral expression when she's close and simply replies: ]

... Maybe.

[ That wouldn't do it, he needs to make up an excuse... One that will stop all suspicion, excuse all of his future problems and keep them all away from wherever the real Reno might be, it's to say probably his real body. And he has the idea, but for that he needs to be alone wouldn't it be only thirty seconds.

When he speaks, his voice is much softer. Uncharacteristic of Ganondorf. probably uncharacteristic of Reno as well unless some kind of awful catastrophe has happened, which isn't far from the truth. ]

Huh... Would ya mind leaving me alone a lil' bit...?

[Persistence was one of her strong suits, as was being able to read the smaller micro-expressions and body motions. And what she was reading from Reno was a myriad of conflicting emotions. Her perma-frown is still set, his response hardly satisfactory.]

Well, this is a first..me having a stronger tolerance than you. Are you sure you're not feeling well?

[No, no, no. This is making no sense at all. In fact, hadn't she drunk nearly twice what he had with half the frame? How could he be complaining about a head-ache if she was barely feeling the effects of one? During her question over his health, she'd removed one hand from her chest, several folds of the sheets shifting, and pressed the back of her hand against his forehead.]

You don't feel like you have a fever...

[....That... She had never, ever, heard him talk like that. Not in any memory she could bring forward. It was enough to pull at her heart-strings, to make her want to wrap her arms around him and hold him. Except that he didn't seem to want - or need - it. Removing her hand from his forehead, Elena sat back, mouth pursing slightly in thought, before giving a little nod.]

Y-yeah, okay... I need to make a trip to the ladies room. I'll be back in a minute, okay?

[She gives him a short pat on the shoulder, keeping the sheets wrapped around her as she slipped off the side of the bed. Bare feet made little noise against the floor as she walked to the door and pulled it open. She stopped, pausing in the doorway to look back at him, obviously concerned, before shutting the door behind her as she padded off to one of the open bathrooms.]

[ Goddesses, "Reno" was about to punch her when she stayed, pressed a hand against his forehead. Holy, what the hell. he doesn't say a word and remains very patient. When she finally heads out, he feels saved. For a second, he waits till she's far away enough.

Then he starts dressing himself. Before she'd come back though, he'd hit himself.

That's right, at a totally not dangerous point, but one that was enough for him to harmlessly cough some blood out. That was Ganondorf after all, he knew exactly what part in the human body did what, it was not hard for him.

So when Elena would return, she'd see "Reno"... Mostly dressed and coughing blood out. ]

[She was gone no more than five minutes - ten minutes max - before returning to her room. Chewing at the inside of her cheek, she stood at the door, hand resting on the handle. Something was really, truly wrong with Reno and a part of her is sure that its because he'd been in the Tower for so long.

Taking a deep breath, she twisted the handle and pushed the door open.]

Hey...I'm ba-[Blood. He was coughing blood. She's across the room in seconds, hands grabbing at his shoulders, her eye wide with panic.] Reno! Are you all right? What happened?

[ That's absolutely perfect. When she sees him like that he pretends to be embarassed and tries to clean the blood away quickly. ]

I-I'm fine!

[ He coughs a little bit more blood then shake his head. Well, now his excuse for his previous behavior is complete. He sighs and sits down, breathing deeply. ]

I... I simply didn't want you to see me like this ya know.

Like hell you are!

[Grabbing a fistful of the sheets wrapped around her, she wiped at the blood that stained mouth and chin. Gaia, she knew it. Something really was wrong - and the fact that he didn't feel like he could share it with her was a bit like a punch to the stomach.

Letting go of his shoulder when he sat down, she stood in front of him, squatting down, hands resting on his knees for balance.]

Damn it, Reno. I need - no, want you to stop hiding things from me. Especially something like this. Just what's going on?
