[It's that time of the month again. Shepard dons her armor, ready for enemies, and thinks that perhaps there should be more of a concentrated effort to welcome newcomers to the islands. It's something she might mull over more in the future.
Regardless, when the floating islands appear (and, subsequently, fall) Shepard is running to get there and help mitigate the damage and save anyone from getting hurt. But it seems her race is unneeded- indeed, she watches the islands hit and... there is no death. No ground-shattering consequences. She's surprised but pleased at that. Perhaps it was the Storyteller that managed to soften the fall. She takes another step towards the island crash site but then... her foot doesn't meet the ground again. She looks down, bewildered, as apparently she begins to rise straight up into the sky.]
What the hell!?
[She flails, trying to grab onto anything, but she can't manage to get purchase. She turns her head to look and see if something is propelling her and her head doesn't stop spinning. Trying to grab her own head to stop the spinning doesn't help and she continues to rise. Kicking doesn't help her either, since apparently she gets stuck in a continual can-can, her leg continually and rhythmically extending from her.
She absolutely could use some help here, unless you want to watch her clip out of reality entirely, which honestly? Is valid.]
Shepard | OTA! (cw: mild body horror and probably will get worse as the thread goes on)
