Eat Me or Drink Me.
Arynek recalled the memories of what happened after taking the two, she would like to test her bravery again, so she picked up a treat. It was so good, she felt herself being blissed. When she broke the ceiling again, she climbed out to where she knew she would be.

Ying found herself unceremoniously dumped into a forest. She rubbed her tailbone with a light, "Aiyaaah," before looking around to identify her surroundings.
First and foremost was the obvious pool. Large, glistening, serene. Ying had always preferred city life, but even she could appreciate the serenity of a quiet pool. Something about it seemed almost melancholy though. Ying couldn't put her finger on it, but she wasn't sure she liked it.
Second was a large table of sweets. Aww! Someone had set out some food for her? Being from Conquest, she would have preferred something a little more seafood-esque, but when Ying thought about it, she hadn't eaten or drunk anything all day. Her thirst was more powerful though, so she took the bottle and uncorked it, swallowing it down.
Things went dark, spun around a little, and she realized she had grown small. "Oh no no no!" she squeaked. Her size was already below average for a horseman, but this was ridiculous!
The only thing she could do was run away and try to hide her embarrassment. Hopefully Jing wasn't anywhere around here.

The rabbit guarding the hole probably wasn't sharing her feeling about the same people going inside again and again. Or may be he just had a bad mood: he hit her back lightly allowing her head to go in the hole first, and Eisheth ended up twisting in the air.
"WOAAAAHHHHH!", after a brief flight she penetrated the surface of the water, and went deep inside. Her body was aching. Next time I see the jack damned rabbit, she decided, I'm going to kill him. Violently.
This time the alchemist decided to take a little experiment, and ate the cake instead of drinking the potion: the effect was predictable, it was right opposite to the drink. Eisheth immediately started to grow larger and larger, until she was able to break through the ceiling, and climb out.

Van followed the slide, eternally grateful he'd brought his own snacks because he was starving now. Not that they'd survived the trip well; some of the treats had bits of leaves in them, some of them had twigs, some had a fine dusting of dirt. It was an exciting surprise with every bite! He was trying to use his soft glow to pick out which treats were not nasty, but it wasn't always successful. More often than not he ended up picking a leaf out of his teeth with a disgusted whimper.
And close to the end of the slide, he started to smell some deliciousness. And that was all it took to send him bounding along the rest of the way-- he'd be so easy to lead into a trap, not even funny. Self preservation, he apparently didn't have a lot of it.
When he got to the table, he narrated every single treat to himself, looking at the cute plates covered with cakes. "Sorry, old nasty tarts, I think I'm going to trade you in," he said. He fully intended to bite at least every cake once, but he didn't get that far.
He picked up one cake with blue flowers and pretty creamy blue icing, tiny silver candy balls dotting its surface, and took a bite. Wow, it was delicious. He'd dropped his own gross snacks onto the table as if they belonged there. "My lips feel funny," Van lamented.
And suddenly he was uber-Van, and had absolutely nowhere to go but up. This was new.

Alexander came off of the slide in a jumble of limbs that first bounced hard on the ground before he rolled over and over again, splashing into the water.
Ouch ouch ouch ouch ughhhhhhhhhh.
He scrambled his way back out, splashing water in all directions, arms flailing as he slogged back to solid ground and made his way over to the trays of food and drink.
"Bottoms up!" He called out cheerfully, ready to get down and dirty and try to make it through that horrible maze once more.
Maybe someday he'd try going the other route with the cakes and cookies that made you grow, but not this time!
He was back on the ground, making his way through broken glass bottles and finding the exit.

A race? YOU BET IT WAS A RACE. She heard Kettil calling out her name right behind her, and as soon as she splashed into the pool, she got back up and ran to the table. She grabbed one of the little bottles, uncorked it, and downed it in one gulp.
She could almost hear Kettil reaching the end of the slide, but she was already shrinking. She was still just barely visible over the folds of her dress when he showed up, and she gave him a mischievous grin, waving her fingers goodbye as she disappeared under her dress.
Her dress, that remained full size.
Suddenly, this was more than just a race to beat Kettil through the maze.
A tiny, undergarment clad Freya scurried into the mouse hole and out of sight.

"Uh huh...Okay." Orange bounced from Billy to Estelle and back, still very much concerned; and not so much for the boil, but now for herself. There was no reason to be doubtful anymore, the arachnids reply proof enough of their claims. But there was still the matter of being only slightly afraid of the familiar. Only slightly.
So long as the tarantula kept her distance things would be just fine. Just fine.
Or as fine as they could be considering where the lot had ended up. Giving both Billy and Estelle one last side-ways glance, (filled with mostly bewilderment. Why spiders? Why?) the monster bit down on her lip, and then sighed. "My name is Natalia." Leaning onto her left hip, resting a hand upon it, the ghoul continued while surveying the area once more. "I have never seen you before, are you new? Fresh meat? Or just passing by?..." A pause, a brief once over of the boy in his simple attire, offering a smile that only just showed the white of her teeth before continuing.
"Strange place, is it not? I wonder if everyone ends up here..." Her pause for thought lasted only a moment, enough time for the monster to spot several vials and stacks of treats in the distance. Some others had already approached the goodies, but for some reason Natalia had yet to see the outcomes.
She should have questioned the layout of edibles, but instead her intrigue (and perhaps her need to be distracted from the piercing eyes of Estelle) lured her forward a few paces. "Do you see that?"

This time he landed rather firmly in the water and splashed it everywhere. It was almost like a nightmare watching his ghoulfriend shrink and then flee clad only in her underwear. He took a drink from a vial quickly and shrank down and down and down and ended up losing his pants.
....This was going smashingly.
He didn't stop as he still gave chase or now it was more of a race right after the ghoul.
"CHEATER. YOU ARE CHEATINGGGGGG." He suddenly called out laughing.
It was probably a good thing he'd decided to wear owl themed boxers that day.

Of course Miyako chose to eat the small cake. There was no way she was going back to that tea party, it gave her nightmares. So she grabbed the cake and ate it quickly, she liked the taste of it anyways. When she stopped growing, she climbed out and headed towards the catapillar.

It was an endless repetition of the same pattern. Would Heidla be wise enough to try the cake, and not to accept the burden of drinking from the bottle, becoming small again, fight the gnomes and end up in humiliation and misery?
Or would it be wise to follow the known routine and get once again hidden and stuck under an upside-down cup? At least she knows the taste of the drink and what happens next.... Not without hesitation Hedla drank from the bottle again....

Tumbling and tumbling and tumbling, Thackery thought the tunnel might never end. When he did manage to make it out, he completely ignored everything but the table of sweets just ahead. It didn't occur to him that an unguarded table of food and drink at the end of a rabbit tunnel was even slightly suspicious, because he was hungry, and he was going to eat one of those cakes.
His eyes closed as he savored it, letting himself fall into the arms of the sugar rush that came shortly thereafter.
No, wait. Those weren't arms. They were...walls? His shoulders were pressing against them, and the ceiling seemed to be closing in.
Frantic, he whined, realizing that the room was clearly shrinking. There was no other explanation! He scratched at the ceiling until the ceiling gave way, and pulled himself through before the room could eat him up.

"Umm.." Billy put Estelle back down when the ghoul finally seemed to relax a bit. He wasn't used to anyone being wary of his familiar, back at home she was just a normal part of the family. "I'm just a guest. Hopin' maybe ta come here sometime.""Are you a student, Miss? Oh that's so exciting." Estelle at least picked up on Natalia's wariness so she kept her skittering close to Billy before finally making her way to the lined up snacks and bottle. "Eat me... Drink me." Judging by the example, one made you bigger and one smaller. "I'll take the one that keeps mah clothes on, thanks." The freckled boil said it gruffly, only a slight pink in his cheeks due to Natalia's presence. He didn't want a fancy ghoul like that seeing his skivvies. A sticky foot snatched a piece of cake and tossed it to Billy, who warily took a bite. It wasn't bad, not as good as his ma's cake but..... The shock of growing hadn't worn off until he'd hit the cieling. [EXIT]

This time, the shadow ghoul still picked the treat. What she expected happened as usual, grew so big, broke the ceiling and climbed out of it to the mushroom foggy forest, nothing special.
Arynek enjoyed the awesome feeling of the treat while thinking of what would happen next in her mind.

Ying decided that after her experience with the strange drink, she preferred to have some food instead.
Of course then she grew a million feet in the air. All things considered? Not that bad. It would be far easier to boss Jing around now- that was always a plus, right?
Her head banged into the ceiling and she frowned. Okay maybe not ALL parts of this growing experience were great. She sighed and climbed out a window. Might as well keep moving.

Of course, like always, she was going to eat the cake. Hm, cake for breakfast. She yawned softly, rubbing her sleepy eyes, and grabbed a pice of cake. She ate the cake maybe a little slower then usual since she was sort of drowsy. After she finished growing she climbed out, though she did sort of feel like resting a bit.
