Content: Rosette is dropped off after the experiments and is in a very bad way. Somebody please come save her?
Setting: Joutenheim Gate
Time: Afternoon
Warnings: None so far.

Rosette had only a vague awareness that she'd been moved. Everything else had been drowned out in the numbness that had taken hold of her body. Feeling the warm sun, a stark contrast to...to wherever it was she had been, on her skin, she finally managed to open her eyes a crack. Ground. She'd been dropped in the middle of the street.

She tried to reach out to the pairs of boots passing her by, to call for help, to do something to draw attention to her plight. It was no use - the words froze in her throat, and her body refused to respond to anything she tried to do.

So she lay there numb, trapped in a body to which she no longer had any connection and praying for somebody, anybody, to stop and help her.

Rosette's cries pierced Chrno's heart, yet he held her tightly to his chest, keeping her embraced while her pocket watch emptied out. He could sense it, stray pieces of her life energy mixing with his. He glowed momentarily with the releasing soul, and by the time Rosette calmed down and the lock clicked shut on the watch face Chrno looked entirely different.

He had changed, to say the least. Suddenly, he was taller, older looking, less adorable and more fierce looking, and had wings and a rather dangerous looking tail that curled around them. And yet he still cradled her in his arms, having to blink his crimson eyes a few times to rid them of tears. Even his clothes had adjusted, changing to a darker tone and remaining to his body.

"Rosette.." His voice, much deeper, cracked when it spoke her name. One hand moved to gently brush strands of her blonde hair away from her face, speaking quietly. "I'm here, Rosette. I'm sorry I had to do that.."
