Yo momma's so fat she has her own orbiting bodies
Who: Potemkin and anyone
When: 1st of April
Where: Rm Q108, various areas in the Hall of Glory
What: Potemkin gets gravity powers. Oh boy.
Rating: None
After his ill-ending dungeon adventure the doctors had told Potemkin to take some time off and get lots of rest. (Between those two events he had tried to walk it off, and then was practically dragged into the infirmary by a certain someone, but those were the point a and point b.) If Potemkin could somehow be conscious while sleeping, then he would notice that he suddenly feels A LOT better in the middle of the night. The other thing he would notice is that a large fraction of his room is now defying gravity. Objects from lamps to nightstands lift off the ground before stopping and staying in place, like submerged objects hitting air. As soon as he starts waking up and feeling the wrongness of the situation, everything drops. Including himself, destroying his undersized bed once and for all in a crash of breaking wood.
Nothing good has ever come from falling asleep in this place.

With his uncontrollable gravity powers even a trip down the hallway becomes an ordeal. If random objects aren't jumping straight up, then they're racing toward him (and it is always very obviously him). Most of the objects are silly (did anyone drop a nail file? An invoice from the local tavern? A used kick-me sign?), but a few of them are somewhat alarming. Potemkin stands puzzled, holding a metal bust of the Prime Minister which had almost beaned him in the head. He's not going to bother going to the dining hall this morning.

Potemkin spends the rest of the day in the courtyard of the Hall of Glory, legs folded and eyes clamped shut in paradoxically intense meditation. He looks even more statuesque than usual; the only tip off that he isn't actually the picture of calm he appears to be is the vibrating rocks around him. The observant will notice that some of them aren't touching the ground...

"That -- yeah, that didn't work. Are you sure you're relaxing? It's all still on!"
no subject
"I'm relaxing as hard as I can!" Feel free to mock that, Dust.
"I...think the range at which I can affect things is shorter than this hallway. If I get far enough from you, you might be freed."
no subject
Now, what to do? Obviously Potemkin was not really relaxing on command, so maybe distracting him would help. "Did you have any unusual abilities back where you came from?"
