WAOA Arena

[DotSlash]

@Nail: Wow, I didn't even notice that.
Uh.... go me... . -.;

The diagrams Solaris would have seen were mostly abstract ideas of things like traveling across dimensions, string theory, and time travel.

As Solaris made it back to the locker room, she'd see the figure was still there, not having moved much from its previous location. It made no reaction to Solaris' entrance once she walked in, even if she made herself largely pronounced.

 

[Chungus]

Seeing the figure didn't seem to have moved, Solaris looked a but curiously. After looking at them for a while didn't prompt any reaction, Solaris moved closer to where it stood, her slitted pupils widening to ovals as her eyes adjusted to the drop change in lighting. Is he asleep there? "Hello?" She said to announce her presence as she approached the figure.

 

[DotSlash]

As Solaris's eyes adjusted to the light, she'd see the figure looked like a large sculpture made of goo. As she spoke to it, it bubbled and wiggled a bit before it stretched awkwardly to 'look' at her, empty eyes blinking as she tilted her head. [color=80dd00] "...Hello?" [/color]

 

[Chungus]

Seeing the figure, and what it was made of, Solaris furrowed her brow, wondering what the slime was, exactly, and how it was held together. While her initial thought were that the slime creature was a result of an alchemical experiment gone wrong, she heard enough stories of things from other dimensions to not view this as the only explaination. "Why are you standing in the dark like this? Furthermore, who and what are you?" She questioned, taking a step back.

 

[DotSlash]

[color=80dd00] "...I just found myself here... and I was asleep till.... just now, actually." [/color] The goo figure looked around as its figure slowly began to look a bit more feminine. Oddly enough, it was wearing clothes, a labcoat and simple white t-shirt that exposed a bit of cleavage and blue pants. None of the articles of clothing were visibly soaked or wet, which by all rights they should be seeing as the slime was dripping into a small puddle around the figure. [color=80dd00] "...You think you could tell me where I'm at right now? You do that and I'll answer those two other questions you have for me." [/color]

 

[Chungus]

Upon seeing the figure alter its shape, and seeing clothing appear on it, Solaris looked to be more curious. A shapeshifter, are we? When asked the question, Solaris nodded. "I can. This is the Evilington Interdimensional Arena, and yes, that's really what it's called." Even without the kidnapping, those in charge here should be fed to wild beasts for choosing such a ridiculous name... "I can't tell you where this arena is located exactly, however, as none of those who've been brought here can leave. To earn your ticket out of here, you must win the tournament. Or so we've been told."

 

[DotSlash]

[color=80bb00] "...Eh? Great, I'm in an arena probably run by crackpots..." [/color] The slimegirl stood up to her full height of 6' and shook her legs out a bit before looking to Solaris. [color=80bb00] "...and no one can leave. I'm starting to wish I had stayed asleep..." [/color] After letting out a small sigh, she looked to Solaris and nodded. [color=80bb00] "My name is Pix, and I'm a slime girl... I'd give you a more technical name, but sadly, no one's come up with one yet that doesn't sound like a five-year old would've come up with it. May I have you name?" [/color] Pix said fluidly.

 

[Chungus]

"I'm Solaris." Solaris answered, looking up to the slime girl, now identifiable as Pix, as she rose to her full height, being some amount shorter without her high heels to boost her height. In most cases, she would have offered to shake hands, but refrained from doing so, not wanting to get slime over her gloves. "I'm wondering, though. You appeared here in a different place then where most, if not all, of the other people make their entry. Maybe this change can give us any clues as to how to get out of this place..." She said, mostly musing aloud.

 

[DotSlash]

[color=80bb00] "...So I'm an oddity?" [/color] Pix said, tilting her head. [color=80bb00] "...I see..." [/color] She seemed to go into thought as she began to exit the lockers.

 

[Chungus]

"From what I understand, yes." Solaris said in return, following Pix out of the locker room, having little reason to stay. "I only appeared her a few hours ago myself, however, so it might be a little to early to say for sure." She added, then paused as she watched Pix move. "If I might ask, how are you held together?" She asked, wishing she had brought a recording device with her.

 

[DotSlash]

Pix looked back blinking a bit. [color=80bb00] "...How am I held together? ...OH." [/color] She seemed a small bit confused, but snapped her fingers as she realized what Solaris meant. [color=80bb00] "My kind can shape themselves in lots of ways..." [/color] As she said this, Pix's form shrank to that of a small 13-year old goo girl wearing a sundress and then reverted back to her normal 30-year old form. [color=80bb00] "We can do this due to a membrane we all innately have. It's the first thing a slime learns, even before learning how to move." [/color] Pix then poked her elbow and Solaris would see the form of the arm was pushed in like it was a balloon. On a normal human it would seem horribly painful, but Pix seemed to not care in the slightest as she demonstrated.

 

[Chungus]

"So, you are a sort of shapeshifter, then, as I first though..." Solaris commented upon hearing Pix's first statement. Upon hearing Pix's second statement, Solaris moved a hand infront of her mouth, with the thumb of which she rubbed her cheeck as she seemed to be in thought, where in actuality, she was just covering up a small smirk. "I see..." Now what would happen if this membrane gets all torn up? Would you bleed, or just ooze? Seeing Pix push her elbow in, Solaris wiped the smirk of her face, and lowered her head, looking on curiously. "Hmm. Looks like you'll have a bit of an advantage over those who use blunt weapons." She commented, looking back to Pix's face. "Or doesn't it work like that?"

 

[DotSlash]

[color=80bb00] "It can work like that..." [/color] Pix said, rubbed the back of her head [color=80bb00] "...Or it ends up being that the force is so large, it passes through the membrane and gets stuck in my body. It's kind of funny seeing that happen and the people trying to attack me get all flustered and paniced." [/color] The slime girl chuckled a bit, her form vibrating a small bit along with her laughing.

 

[Chungus]

"From what I understood, this membrane amounts to your skin, so won't having it broken, especially so violently, be rather painful?" Solaris questioned, disappointed by the prospect by breaking the membrane not being akin to a wound afterall. Turning towards the direction of the lounge, she began walking in that direction. "Oh, and the lounge is this way. That's where we spend most of our time if we're not fighting."

 

[DotSlash]

[color=80bb00] "It would be if I didn't allow my membrane to suck in the weapon in the first place. But yeah... oozing out it never quite fun. It's not hard to reform yourself afterward, but get smacked around enough times and continued cohesion becomes basically impossible. That's like being dead for a slime." [/color] Pix then tilted her head a bit. [color=80bb00] "Hmmm... a lounge? At least they're treating the prisoners around here nicely..." [/color] She said as she followed after Solaris.

 

[Chungus]

"I see." Why, thank you for revealing that to me. Most kind. I'll be sure to strike you repeatedly if you face me. "Well, fortunately, I've yet to see anyone here use a blunt weapon, save for one fighter, whose fists can be considdered that. Most of everyone I've seen so far used guns." Solaris commented as she walked into the lounge. "If I might ask, how would you fight? Considdering you were hardly alarmed upon learning you're expected to fight, I can only imagine you're no stranger to it." She commented, turning back to Pix. "And, yes. The lounge is nice enough, if a bit low on entertainment."

 

[DotSlash]

Pix looked down to Solaris and sighed a bit to herself. [color=80bb00] "...That.... sucks. And let me guess, they've got magic users too?" [/color] The slime girl's mood sank visually before Solaris asked her next question. [color=80bb00] "Oh... well, that's where the shapeshifting comes in." [/color] She replied before her right arm morphed into a replica hammer.

 

[Chungus]

"I haven't seen anyone use any magic, So I can't say." Solaris answered, shaking her head lightly. Once Pix's right arm took on the shape of a hammer, Solaris tried to poke it. "If you change your body like this in order to fight, wouldn't you just increase the risk of rupturing this membrane?" She asked, regardless of wherther or not Pix would alow the makeshift weapon to be poked.

 

[DotSlash]

Oddly enough, the hammer would feel much harder than Pix's body did as Solaris poked it. [color=80bb00] "It would if we weren't able to harden ourselves up a bit. Only downside is we get a lot easier to hurt when hit anywhere but the weaponized area." [/color] Pix said, smiling a little proudly as she explained. As Solaris poked, she'd also notice that the hammer wouldn't have left a trace of slime on her finger. Once the duo walked into the lounge, Pix's hammer arm reverted back to her normal arm. If Solaris continued poking at her, there would be no trace of slime even as she touched Pix's normal form.

 

[Chungus]

After poking the hammer, Solaris looked to her finger, noting the lack of slime on it. After the initial poke, Solaris didn't poke Pix more. You just love running your mouth, don't you? But loose lips sink ships. "Those sound like useful abilities to have. I wish I could do anything like it, if I must be honest." Solaris commented with a small smile. "Can you mold yourself into any shape, or just a select number of things?"
