On some random September day (the 21st if you must know, XD) there is an unexpected rare natural occurrence: a total solar eclipse. After that, though, odd things have been happening. Like some people gain new abilities, lose old ones, swap personalities, find themselves in other people's bodies... et cetera, et cetera. Use your imagination.

((Uh oh. I can just imagine...)) SN wasn't bouncing around cheerfully like she usually did. For some reason she felt really weird. It just MIGHT have had something to do with that solar eclipse. Anyways, she was feeling really down and couldn't imagine why. She didn't even feel like hunting down Edward or Sora. What was wrong with her? Heck, she didn't even want to go mess with Twoey or Jack or hit Oogie with music stands(now THAT was a rare occurence...))or anything she normally did. She just felt...weird. And unhappy. That was really weird, because usually she was all smiles.

Orin opened his eyes, and stared blankly at the wooden surface above him. It looked sort of like a table... or a counter of some sort. He must've been more high than he thought, because he could barely see. And how had he ended up here? He could've sworn he had just been getting ready to start a day of work! He sat up, cracking his head on the whatever-it-was. Hmm. That had actually felt sort of... good. He grinned a little as he stood up, leaning on the- it seemed to be a counter- for support as he squinted, trying to see where he was. Huh. Looked almost like that flower place Audrey worked at. But it couldn't be... He brought his hands to his face to rub his eyes, to try to get them to focus properly, but froze. Since when did he have bandages on his fingers!?

((OMG!)) SN started towards the only place she was sure would take her mind off her current and unexplained missery- 'The Flower Shop' as she called it. Maybe there was someone there that could make her happy again. She felt like she was being affected by a dementor, but without the coldness. Just the feeling of never being happy again. And that made her more depressed than she already was. "Hey," she muttered dully as she entered. She looked around at all the pretty plants(not counting Audrey II. I actually really like plants.) but nothing changed. She still felt miserable.

"Hey," Orin greeted, distracted. Wait... that wasn't his voice. And he recognized it. Let's see... who did he know with crappy vision, bandaged fingers, and a voice that sounded like that? Hmm... Orin finally put two and two together to get... Orin. Not really, he got four. Mentally panicking, he reached into his pocket with a shaking hand and pulled out an object he had expected to find: a pair of glasses. "Um... pinch me, will ya?" he asked SN. He hoped this was a dream, because this was NOT COOL.

SN tilted her head to the side without real curiosity. "Why?" she asked. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary to her. Except her depression. But that was often found in teens, so she tried not to worry about it. She didn't see what was wrong, obviously, because Orin looked just like Seymour. But something didn't feel quite right...Something very weird was going on, she could feel it. She just had no idea what.

"Uh, no reason, just do it," Orin snapped. He wasn't happy about this, not at all. But then again, who WOULD like being in the body of the man they hated? Well, one of them, anyways. At least he hadn't been forced into Denton's body. That would be a living hell. At least Orin still had his sadism, right?

But SN wasn't feeling cooperative today. "Make me!" she snapped. "Give me ONE good reason to do what you say," She still didn't know why she was feeling so aweful today, but she had to do something to let it out. And that meant taking it out on other people. She was just mad, but she couldn't help being difficult as a result. Later, she would try to talk her way out of anything she got herself into, or she'd end up upset because someone yelled at her, or something like that.

"Let's see..." Orin glanced around the shop. Seymour didn't have anything of interest in his pockets- aka no tools or drugs. No weapons in the shop, from the looks of it. "I'll sic this weirdo plant on you if you don't do as I say!" he finally decided. Hey, it looked weird and creepy, maybe his threat could convince SN to do as he asked. He had no idea that the plant was dangerous, he just assumed it was a weird large plant.

SN sulked to a corner and sat down, looking depressed. "Leave me alone," she muttered, glaring at the wall without real conviction. That eclipse had messed with her mindset badly. She felt extrmely badly right now. Just like a dementor's effects. Her right hand scratched the back of her left subconciously, creating a small red mark.

"You know perfectly damn well I will not leave you alone!" Orin growled, walking towards SN. However, this was Seymour's body, and he ended up tripping. "I guess I gotta get used to this," he grumbled as he pushed himself to his hands and knees, crawling towards SN.

"I SAID leave me alone," SN growled, still glaring at the wall, though slowly her glare turned into a very sad look. She didn't know why, she just felt like being sad. She wanted people to leave her alone, and yet, she didn't. It was so confusing. Why? Why did she have to be like this today? Stupid Solar Eclipse...she was starting to suspect it had something to do with it.

"And I said I wouldn't!" Why wouldn't she listen to him!? Orin wasn't happy about that. He'd almost always been obeyed when he was in his normal body... maybe there was just something about this stupid florist dude that told people "don't obey me" or something like that. Barrel wandered around, searching for someone. "Mommy?" he called every few minutes as he stood on tiptoe to peer into various windows.

SN ignored him this time, glaring at the wall again. She didn't care if he said he wouldn't leave her alone, really, but she didn't want to do anything right now, so of course she didn't care. So she did her best to be oblivious and act like he wasn't there. Why was she feeling so weird? She felt like crawling into a hole and hiding there untill she felt normal again. Or at least have something normal happen. She bet it wouldn't though.

Barrel finally peeked in the window of Mushnik & Son's Skid Row Florist. "Hey! Mommy!" he grinned as he scurried inside. "Hey! Mr. Weirdo Guy! Get away from my mommy!" he ordered. "I refuse to do as you say," Orin snapped. He wasn't going to let some kid- with bad teeth, it looked like- order him around.
