Hawaii Five-0, Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams, a Kahuna's curse turns both of them into animals...but not at the same time
“I’m not sure what that Kahuna thought he would achieve by cursing us, but you’d think he could have been a bit more friendly, wouldn’t you, Steve?” When McGarrett failed to reply to his question Danny turned to look for him. “Steve? Steve!”
Hearing a noise at his feet, Danny looked down. “Oh no,” he said. “This is some kind of joke. Steve, you can come out now.” The only response came from the seal, which made a guttural noise. “You’re not telling me you’re a seal, are you?”
The seal nodded its head.
“So what am I supposed to do now?” Danny asked. “Sit on the beach until you change back?”
The seal wriggled slightly, which Danny felt could have been described as shrugging its shoulders.
There wasn’t much alternative to remaining on the beach. Danny considered driving them back to the condo, but he wasn’t convinced he could lift the seven foot seal into the back of a pickup. Nevertheless he suggested it, but the mournful way the seal looked at him with its big brown eyes convinced him not to try it.
In the end, he settled on the sand, the seal lying contentedly by his side. With nothing else to do, Danny started to doze, and then fell asleep.
When he woke he was delighted to see Steve McGarrett back in his usual form. The problem came when Steve started to stride down the beach calling for him, and Danny had to propel himself across the sand using his flippers.
Marvel Cinematic Universe, Bucky Barnes +/ Steve Rogers, when Bucky gets overly stressed out he inadvertently shifts into an animal form
“Bucky, I’m back!” Steve Rogers called as he entered their apartment.
There was no reply, nothing to indicate Bucky was there, but somehow Steve knew he was. He went into the bedroom and peered under the bed. A pair of bright green eyes looked at him from the furthest corner.
“Bad day, huh?”
The cat blinked.
“I’m just going to fix myself a sandwich and some coffee and take it to the sofa,” Steve told the cat. “Join me when you’re ready.”
Snack sorted, Steve collapsed onto the sofa and switched the television on. After a while the cat joined him, curling up into a tight ball. Gently Steve began to stroke the cat, which slowly uncurled and began to purr. Steve continued, feeling the cat relax under his touch. Finally, the cat stretched out and jumped off the sofa, before trotting back into the bedroom.
Two minutes later Bucky came out of the bedroom and said, “Yeah, bad day!”
Temeraire, Laurence + Temeraire, swimming with water dragons
Temeraire and Laurence had been asked for their assistance when rebels began to attack the Chinese border. They had both been happy to oblige, keen to have some excitement in their lives after nine months of idleness, and in addition knowing they would be returning home as soon as the summer finished. Their accommodation was as befitted a royal dragon and the adopted son of the last emperor.
There were a number of pools linked together by a gentle stream and Laurence enjoyed going for a swim in them. The pools were too shallow for Temeraire to swim and he contented himself with watching Laurence and occasionally paddling on the edge. After a couple of days Laurence was joined by two small water dragons, who, delighted to have find a new playmate, swam alongside him. Laurence found a bamboo ball and took it into the pool one morning for the dragons to play with.
He lost track of time, and was startled to hear Temeraire say pointedly, “When you’ve quite finished with your game, we do have aerial reconnaissance to do.”
The Hour, Lix Storm/Randall Brown, hallways
Randall Brown raised an eyebrow as he looked at Lix Storm. “How long have you been waiting out there?”
“Not long. But long enough.”
“You heard what I said?”
“More or less. I filled in the gaps.”
“Who do you think I was talking to?”
“Slightly conciliatory, but with an edge of ‘it’s not going to make a difference whatever you may think’. I’d say the Deputy DG.”
“And your conclusion?”
“We’ve got half an hour before he appears. And,” Lix fished something out of her pocket and waved it at Randall, “I have the key to the stationery cupboard.”
