For [livejournal.com profile] lilfluff: "A convenient random plot device affects Tez and Maria making them both children. How do they react? Will whoever caused it to happen survive? "


"Maria," Tez said with remarkable calm, "the next you experiment with potions, please make sure they won't explode, nor are skin permeable." He fingered his collar, hanging loosely from his neck, not being fitted for a youngling of only fifty years. He clamped down on his emotions, which were railing at the wrong, wrong, wrong, sensory inputs of being in a building instead of a nurturing forest. Hurts.

Maria, appearing about eight and falling out of her dress, stuttered, "Y-yes, s-sir."

Oh, no... "Maria, you're eight again, you're not..."

She dropped to her knees, whimpering in abasement.

Physical, and emotional.

Maria did not have a fun childhood, no.

In this situation Tez needs to be the calm, nurturing supportive one?

Yep. Frightening thought...

He can do it, can't he?

Oh, yes. While I enjoy keeping Tez's long term moral stance nicely ambiguous, push comes to shove he'll cheerfully commit mass murder to keep his family, Maria included, safe and happy. And he's used to comforting eight-year old slaves already.

Hmm, that just sounds wrong now...

Oh, man. /wants to comfort Maria/

Eep! Okay, no I want to comfort her, and inflict punishments on her former master.

(Mental note: If I ever slip into their universe I must never, ever, let slip even a hint of having anything to do with this happening.)
