Log_Lady: Hey guys! We will be assisted by The Doctor today on a dare from theconfuzzledcooki: "I dare Log_Lady and Erik to switch minds for a day and Erik (now in Log_Lady's body) has to be forced to listen to Log_Lady play his instruments."
Erik: Oh no..... *pales* Oh no, no, no, no, no...... You are not to touch any of the woodwinds.... Or the brass for that matter...... Stick to what you know: strings. Actually, maybe leave the bass alone too. And also the cello..... Additionally, you don't exactly know how to play the viola so maybe only play my vio-
Log_Lady: Nope. I get to play more than one. Note that they said instruments. As is more than one instrument.
Erik: Oh, merde.....
The Doctor: *sticks his out from behind a giant machine that takes up much of the living room* You guys ready?
Log_Lady: Yep! Hook us up!
The Doctor: *attaches a few wires from the machine to each of their heads then presses a button*
David Tennant: The two black out, waking up a few moments later in charge of the other's body.
The Doctor: Oh good, you're not dead! Now, the effects should wear off by tomorrow. I'll be in my T.A.R.D.I.S. if you have any problems!
Log_Lady: *stands up* WOAH! I'm really tall!!!! And scrawny. I've never been so thin in my entire life wow. OH MY GOSH MY VOICE!!!!!!!!! This is so weird....... *stumbles over to stairs* How do you manage to stay so balanced? With such long limbs......
Erik: You know, you're really one to talk....... *takes a few steps forward* At least my body isn't pigeon-toed. How do you get around like this??
Log_Lady: You just get used to it I guess. Come on!!! We have instruments to play. *runs upstairs to Erik's room*
Erik: WAIT WAIT I HAVE TO SUPERVISE YOU NO!!!!!!! *runs up after her*
Log_Lady: I think I'll start with...... OOH A SAXOPHONE! *picks it up off the stand*
Erik: *freezes and stares* I feel kind of..... Light headed..... I think I...... *faints*
Log_Lady: Drama queen. I'm not going to hurt it! I value instruments too! *attempts to play Hot Cross Buns on saxophone* *epically fails*
Erik: *jolts up and snatches it from her* Move on to the next one please. *starts petting saxophone* It's okay, baby.... She'll leave you alone now.....
Log_Lady: Uh...... How about....... The bass next!!!! *struggles to pull it off of the stand* Wow this thing is almost as tall as me...... Well actually bigger than me...... Almost as tall as you. Now I need a bow..... *pulls a bow from the nearby violin case*
Erik: *carefully puts the saxophone away and then takes the bow away from Log_Lady* No! You can't just use the violin bow on my bass! She has a bow of her own in her case! *puts the bow back and grabs the proper one*
Log_Lady: Ooooh. Okay. *plays a (very flat, almost chromatic but not as good, scale)* Wow the fingering is all off.... Moving on I guess!! To...... The bagpipes!!!! *puts bass away and goes in search of bagpipes*
Erik: No!!! You can't use those! They're extremely fragile, especially in the hands of someone who has no idea how they work!!!
Log_Lady: I know how bagpipes work. I'm not some uneducated dummy.
Erik: *very very hesitantly* Alright........
David Tennant: Many instruments and MUCH fretting later.
Erik: *almost in tears* You've-you've played ten of them! Surely that's enough for the dare!
Log_Lady: But it's so fun!
Erik: I beg to differ.... You don't understand how nerve-wracking this is.
Log_Lady: Oh.... Alright then. Would you feel better if we went down and watched a movie and cuddled?
Erik: *nods*
Log_Lady: Mkay. See ya'll next session!
