not to be deep about a band called the juicy fruits but like. they are sooooo fascinatingly Empty to me my god there's a kind of horror in how swan can plaster any look and sound onto them and they'll adapt it seamlessly. haha sure boss we can perform that dead guy's music! :) we can sing that song about a rock star giving up his own life for fame and money! :) did we sing it good enough boss? the crowds won't dare applaud until we have your approval. we don't exist without your approval. you want the dead guy's song as a surf rock number? okay! :)

yknow based on freminet’s emphasis on being controlled & the director’s weapon vs making his own decisions, and looking at xiao’s everything, if one of the house of hearth kids is going to betray the fatui/join the traveler i’d kinda expect it to be him

Do you have Diomedes eventually being immortalized by Athena in your hcs like he is in some versions of his mythology?

Honestly, I don't really know? 😅 He kind of only "exists" in my writing until he meets once with Penelope at like, 13-14 years of Odysseus being gone. Sthenelus is, ofc, with him. :D And he tells some stories to Penelope and kind of hangs out with Telemachus before they're off again. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

After that, I don't think much or plan much for him 😅 "You played your narrative purpose, now you are free to do what you please, little dude."

Maybe I'll have it mentioned or something? but I don't know for sure :'D

Oh no. It looks like Thea, Erica, and Posy have been transformed into animatronics!

———

It was already late when the car pulled up to the parking lot and four women climbed out into the brisk night air. All four clearly had been enjoying themselves thus far and, aided by perhaps one too many drinks, laughed as they piled out.

“I never knew that place existed.” Thea said, her cheeks flushed and wobbling slightly.

“That’s because the best places never advertise.” Lilith responded as she shut the driver door and locked the vehicle. Of the four Lilith seemed to be the least affected, but if that was from lack of drink or just being able to hold it better was not immediately apparent.

“So… where are we?” Erica asked, looking around. The parking lot was empty save for the car they had just exited, and the strip mall itself had seen better days, most of the stores now stood empty, including the one Lilith was leading them toward.

“Oh. Just some place that I think it’s a great follow up and way less crowded than that club.” Lilith replied, reaching the door to the building and pulling. If there was a ‘pop’ as the lock gave way under the force of the pull, the other three women didn’t notice.

“Good.” Posy said, wobbling slightly. “I don’t think I can Dance any more.”

“Oh, I don't think that will be a problem.” Lilith responded grinning as she ushered the others inside.

“Umm…” Thea said, pausing as she crossed through the threshold and looked around. “I don’t think this place is open.” The room was pitch black with the only illumination coming from the street lights outside. Too dim to truly light up the room they could only make out formless shapes in the dark.

“Oh this is just the entrance. Just follow me, birthday girl.” Lilith said, taking Thea by the hand and heading the others deeper into the dark room. Moving deeper, Thea thought she could see the forms of tables, chairs, and booths in various states of disarray as they walked past, but any further questions were stopped as Kelsey led them forward and instructed them to mind the steps.

“Ouch.” Posy said as she stubbed her toe on the first step. Thea followed and found herself climbing a short set of steps up to some kind of platform and then guided to a spot by Lilith.

“You, right here. You, over here and you… sit down right here. Perfect!” Lilith said arranging the three others to various positions and gently forcing posy into a stool of some kind. “Just stay right there.” And with that pulled away leaving the three is total darkness, this deep in the building even the streetlights provided no illumination.

“Hehe, she’s not going to prank us and just leave us here in the dark, is she?” Erica asked. A hint of nervousness in her voice.

“No, that's not her style.” Thea responded, something tingling at the back of her mind. “Lilith’s pranks usually involve tran-“ but her words were cut off by light suddenly bursting forward from overhead and behind. The sudden flash left all three women blinded for a moment and blinking to try and clear their vision. As it did the three realized they were now standing on a stage, overlooking the interior of a restaurant long since closed. A fine layer of dust laid across the various booths and tables. Along the far walls old video game cabinets stood, long since emptied of the valuable circuitry.

“Tada!” Lilith said, taking a seat in the one lone clean chair that sat before the stage.

“Oh wow. Is this an Annie’s Animatronic Arcade?” Erica asked, looking around and nearly bumping into the keyboard that stood in front of her. “I haven’t been to one of these since I was like 8.”

“I think that’s because they all closed down a while ago.” Posy replied looking at the drum set they were sitting in front of.

The warning bells in Thea’s head had just begun to ring out loud enough to pierce the haze of dance and drink that had clouded it from before. But didn’t get the Chance as Lilith motioned with her finger over Thea’s shoulder. Thea turned to see a large banner simply exclaiming “Happy Birthday Thea!”

“All that’s so nice of you but what -“ yet again she was interrupted, this time by a bolt of magic hitting her in the back. Spinning back again thea was about to demand what was going on, but her mouth refused to open. Instead she found her lips pulling into a bright and cheerful smile. Out of the corner of her eyes she could see Erica and Posy both smiling with identical grins on their faces. Reaching up, Thea tried to move her unresponsive lips by force but was shocked to feel the skin under her fingertips transition from warm soft flesh to cool hard plastic. Turning to her right sge saw the same happening to Erica, her skin growing porcelain white save for red circles on her cheeks. Her eyes shifted, no longer darting about but instead locked ahead and looking far more artificial. Regardless of her face, Erica’s body still seemed in full control and her arms reached up to rub at the frozen plastic cheeks ineffectually.

Turning back out from the stage, Thea attempted to glower at Lilith, an action that was greatly undermined by the fact her face was frozen in a cheerful plastic smile. Lilith only smiled back and waved her fingers, giggling at something. That something quickly became apparent as thea felt something changing behind her. Turning to her left she looked back to see a long thin gray tail suddenly sprouting from her backside as her clothing began to change. Wait. No, her clothes were just suddenly gone! Looking over she saw that post was now equally naked with a much longer and thicker tail sprouting from her rear as well. As she watched she watched Posy’s skin begin to ripple and change. A brown cloth like appearance matching that of the tail stretching over her sides up her chest and down her arms. Looking down thea saw the same happening to herself, only the cloth texture was grey in nature. Turning she saw Erica was now adorned with a deep purple and… a bunny tail extended just above her rear.

Thea spun back to Lilith, or tried to. Oddly enough her legs were not obeying her commands and longer and she found she had to turn at the waist to view their captor who was smiling broadly. Even her arms seemed to be locking up now, her left hand raising up as if holding something at roughly chest height and freezing there. Her right arm on the other hand, awkwardly rose up with her hand still held down and elbow bent and froze there much as her left. For a moment all she was able to do was force the upper half of her body to turn right or left, but soon even that stopped, leaving her frozen. Still staring at Erica she could see her frozen just the same as herself. For a breath everything was still.

That was broken by another tingle posed over her body. She felt all at once her body begin to change. Internally: Bones reshaped, replaced with steel rods. Muscles fading and replaced by servo motors. Outwardly clothing began to form, meaning she was no longer naked, but the nature of the clothing was almost as bad. A large ruffle lined black dress forming, topped with a white lacy apron that looked remarkably like… a maid dress. The embarrassment wasn’t over though as atop her head she felt the added weight and saw in the reflection of Erica’s keyboard, two large circular mouse ears form into place. Erica was suffering a similar fate bunny ears to match her tail sprouting from her hairline. A sailor’s uniform with the cap set at a jaunty angle forming overtop her body. Unseen behind her Posy’s body was suddenly dressed in a bellhop costume, along with smaller circular ears marking them as a monkey. The changes stopped leaving all three frozen and helpless on the stage.

A snap of fingers brought the lights for the store back down to near total darkness. Only for the lights of the stage to pop on a moment later. Thea struggled and strained trying to move her body, and to her surprise.. It worked! Her right left arm lowered on to raise back up. She felt her first turn. First left. Then right. Thea wanted to groan in frustration but instead found her mouth opening and closing on its own!

Happy birthday we sing

In this song we’re looping

Dancing without a choice

Hear the joy in our voice

Tick tock time's our friend

Sing and spin never bend

Every day all the same

Lost in our happy game

Helplessly we’ll keep on

From dusk till bright new dawn

Mechanical dancers sway

Forever in birthday play

Thea couldn’t stop herself. She swiveled helplessly back and forth. Her mouth opening and closing and never quite syncing up with the lyrics of the song. Beside her Erica mechanically played the keyboard. Her hands were stiffly rising and falling to slap the keys that produced no sound. On her other posy rhythmically raised and lowered her arms to play the drums. And together they played. And played. And played.
