His expression grew more and more uneasy throughout her speech as he realized what he was going to have to do. "Son of a bitch." He groaned and looked down at her. "Alright. Don't you automatically reform once you're digested, or something?" He gathered up everything and put it in his pack, and then he turned around to see the tiny gingerbread figure, gulping a bit. It looked so much like her...he picked it up nervously, staring at it for a moment, before closing his eyes, quickly shoving it into his mouth and swallowing it, wincing a bit as it stretched his throat. "Oh, man, I really hope I don't have to do that again." He quickly took the shrinking potion, pulled his mask on, clambered up and scrambled through the ducts, conscious that he needed every second in order to be in a safe place for the frenzy.<br/><br/>He followed her instructions with a couple of expected wrong turns, before locating the room with the humming and carving his route out of there. Once he was back on the ground, he scurried away from the Repulse building in his shrunk form for a block or two, before going back to full size in an alley, and starting the run back to Ptricia's. He didn't want to use his bike as his coordination was being affected by the impending frenzy, which was getting worse every minute.<br/><br/>Once he'd reached Ptricia's place he hurried in and stripped down to his boxers, not wanting to wreck any of his clothes, closed his eyes and started deep breathing to slow down the frenzy a bit, hoping Ptricia would reform ASAP.
