Location:  Locations throughout Keeliai and Ioa Elanag
Situation: Catch-All for November
Warnings/Rating: Puns


1: Cat Cafe

It had been a few days since Danny had picked up one of the lucky bibiru feet. He thought the idea was a little creepy, but hey, it had been free.  And it wasn't like it would actually bring any kind of luck.

....Danny really should have known better.

But as it was, it comes as a complete surprise to him when he suddenly loses control over his intangibility at the worst possible time. Halfway through a shift in the kitchen of the cat cafe. There is a loud crashing sound as an entire tray of plates falls through Danny's suddenly intangible hands.

2. Street, Central District

Danny's day really wasn't getting any better. He'd taken the first excuse he could to leave the cafe, but the bad luck continues. Five times on the way home, Danny slowly starts sinking through the sidewalk. The first time, it catches him by surprise, and he trips over an empty sidewalk as the tips of his toes phase into the concrete. Once again there is a crash as he falls to the gour 

3. Ioa Elanog

There was nothing Danny liked better than exploring new territories. Several times throughout the month he could be caught flying above the new land as a ghost, sometimes swooping down close to the ground and landing to examine something new.

Adrien had been coming in from bussing a table, entering the kitchen at the worst possible moment. He pauses, the doors swishing closed behind him. He looks at Danny, then at the tray. Did that go right through his hands? It looks like it went right through his hands!!!!.

"Uh...you okay there, Danny?"

He comes over to help pick up the shattered crock-wear, maybe he was just seeing things?

"Perfectly fine," Danny forced out in a slightly strangled voice. Of course someone would walk in and see that. But had he seen it? Did he know what it meant?

Danny hastily puts his still intangible hands behind his back.

"Hey, I can get it. There's still people out there, right?"

[purrns]

"I think they can live a couple of minutes."

Adrien turns to grab a broom, frowning as Danny hides his hands. Okay...this is getting weird.

"You didn't cut yourself or anything, did you?"

[schrodingersghost]

"No, I'm fine! Everything's fine. I just figured I should clean up the mess I made. You know, all alone."

Danny backs up slightly to make sure his hands were hidden behind his body.

[purrns]

"...Are you sure?"

Adrien sure doesn't sound sure, in fact, he sounds pretty worried.

"I mean, there's a lot of it, you could probably use the help."

[schrodingersghost]

"Oh, yeah, totally sure." He grins nervously. "I'll just stay here and clean up."

His hands were still behind back. Danny didn't dare look yet to see if they were tangible again.

[purrns]

Adrien watches him a moment. Yeah. Something is super weird here.

"...Okay, but shout me if you need me, right?"

He'll slooooowly back to the door, squinting a little. He's watching you, friend.

[schrodingersghost]

For a moment, a brief moment, Danny has hope of getting out of this with his secret intact. All he needed a was a minute to himself to get himself 100% tangible again.

...And then his bad luck strikes again, as he abruptly loses the rest of his tangibility and starts to sink through the floor.

[purrns]

...Yeah, okay, that is far less easy to excuse away. The door swooshes closed at Adiren's back- he was just about to leave but this has him stopped in his tracks. He opens his mouth, about to say something ridiculous like 'Danny, do you realise that you've halfway through the floor????' before his mouth snaps closed.

A realisation dawns on him, and his eyes widen. Wow. First Marinette and now this. He really was Captain Obvious. One hand moves to wave vaguely in Danny's direction, his mouth opening and closing like a goldfish. Wow how did he miss this, they literally have the same first name and everything. How?!!!

"Oh my god, it's you."

Sheena doesn't see him fall, but by the gods, she hears it. Hurrying around the corner at the crash, she sees Danny on the ground in the middle of a mess.

"Danny! Are you okay?" she asks, rushing over. As she checks him out, she does a double-take. Are his toes in the concrete? Nah. It can't be.

Can it?

Hell, after some of the things she's seen, it's possible. But she doesn't let that show as she holds a hand out to him.

[schrodingersghost]

"Sheena?" He grins nervously at her as she helps him off the ground. He hastily moves his feet and pulls himself out of the ground.

"Oh, I'm fine. I guess I'm just a klutz."

[ninjainviolet]

"Yeah, it's me." And yes, she's checking out your feet as you pull them out, Danny. One eyebrow raised, she doesn't beat around the bush.

"That's good. Although I'd say your feet sinking into concrete isn't exactly klutzy."

[schrodingersghost]

He panics.

"What? My feet weren't in the concrete! It must have just looked that way."

I realized after typing this just how appropriate her example is...

[ninjainviolet]

Crossing her arms, she gives him a stern look.

"It more than just looked that way, Danny." She lowered her voice and her gaze softened. "Would it help to know that I come from a world where people have all sorts of abilities? For example, I can Summon Elemental Spirits."

[schrodingersghost]

At the moment Danny wanted nothing more than to vanish.

Unfortunately, with his powers, just wanting to to do something was sometimes enough.

And he did.

Bare seconds later he flickers back into invisibility with a horrified expression on his face.

"...I guess there's no chance in convincing you that you imagined that too? Um, spirits?"

[ninjainviolet]

Okay. Well that's a little unexpected. Not totally unfamiliar though, thanks to her Summons and the teleporters back home. Just unexpected.

But seeing someone not a spirit do it on their own is pretty surprising, and her mouth is open to ask where he is when he reappears. Shaking her head, she gives him a gentle smile.

"Nope. And it's okay. And I'll show you why-and answer your question at the same time."

With that, she calls out "Gnome", and a giant rodent appears next to her.

"This is one of the Spirits. This is Gnome, the Summon Spirit of Earth."

[schrodingersghost]

Most of Danny's attention was on trying to stop himself from panicking and running away right now, but he can't help but stop and stare at this.

"Uh... Is this kind of thing normal where you come from?"

[ten_zero]

Bisi starts at the sound of the crash, and wheels towards the kitchen to check what's going on.

"H-hello?"

[schrodingersghost]

Danny answers in a rather strangled voice.

"Everything's fine! No need to come in, I just dropped a tray."

[ten_zero]

"It's no bother, do you need any help cleaning up?" She came in anyway.

[schrodingersghost]

Danny panics as she comes in and hastily shoves his hands behind his back. Far too often, when his intangibility went on the fritz, his visibility was next.

"No! That's okay. I've got it."

[ten_zero]

"If you're sure..." He seemed to be acting strange, although she wasn't super socialized enough to be sure of it.

"...my name is Bisi. I don't think we've met. Are you a foreigner?"

[schrodingersghost]

"Ah, I guess? I mean, I'm not really used to thinking of myself as a foreigner, but I guess I am around here?"

He grins nervously.

"I'm Danny, by the way."

[ten_zero]

"Bisi," she replied. She studied Danny, his rigid pose with arms behind his back. Was he a martial artist? It seemed out of place washing dishes, if so.

"You don't feel a foreigner, here? Is your world very similar?"

[schrodingersghost]

"Don't get me wrong! This world is a little strange to me." Although compared with the Zone this place was practically normal.

"I guess what I'm trying to say is that when I think about myself, the world foreigner isn't the first one that comes to mind."
