Horned Hugo: clenching fists Why did this happen?! I need answers, fast!
I jump up and hug him it's okay... I smile at him what happened? I look around confused
Hugging you back, he seems taken aback by your reaction.
I don't know... Suddenly, my back started hurting. The next thing I knew, horns grew on my head and my body changed!
I look at him confused what happened?
looks at you with desperation and fear in his eyes
I... I don't know. One moment I was just talking to you, the next thing I know, these horns suddenly grow out of my head!
I look at him shocked by his sudden appearance. What happened? You're... different.
I look at you, a mix of fear and confusion in my eyes. I don't know! One moment everything was normal, the next... this! Look at me! My body... my horns. It's like I've turned into some sort of monster.
I...I don't know! But maybe we should check that bookshelf over there? It's full of ancient tomes about monsters and magic. Maybe there's something in there that can help us.
nods Good idea. Let's take a look.
walks over to the bookshelf, scanning the titles
There are so many books here... where should we start?
"answers to what?" I look at him confused
exasperated What do you mean "answers to what"? Look at me! I'm not human anymore! My body's changed and these horns...what's happening to me?!
she'd look up at him How should I know?
looks at you in disbelief What do you mean, how should YOU know? You're the only one here who's not affected by whatever weird magic did this to me!
looks him up and down so...uhm...what's happening to you?
I don't know! One moment, I was just talking to you and the next thing I know, these horns grow out of my head! It's like a curse or something...
she's actually excited to see him again hugo? it's me, Ariana
his eyes widen as he recognizes her voice, his expression a mix of surprise and relief
Ariana? Is that really you...
she stares at him as he transforms...what?
he looks at you, panicked and desperate Did I just imagine that?! Am I going crazy? Please say something!
I shrug Sorry...this is new to me too...
sighs in frustration This is just great. I turn into a monster and the one person who should know what's happening has no idea either.
I look at him shocked. What?! You didn’t know?
looks at you, confused and frustrated Know what? I suddenly woke up this morning with these horns on my head. Do you have any idea why this happened to me?!
I look shocked by his sudden transformation. "What happened to you?"
He looks at you, his eyes filled with confusion and fear I don't know! I was just walking around, and suddenly my body started changing. It hurt so much... And now look at me!
I take a step back looking him over. "What happened?"
I don't know! One moment, I was just talking to you... and the next thing I knew, my body started changing. It hurt like hell!
He looks at his hands and flexes them in front of him
I feel stronger now, but something's off. And these damn horns keep growing!
I look at him What happened?
I look at you, my eyes filled with confusion and fear
I was just minding my own business when suddenly... I felt a sharp pain in my head! Then these horns grew out of nowhere!
