[The last thing Marco remembered was coming back to his room after a day of shopping during an "Annual Squire Shop-off", feeling pretty great about all of the goodies he managed to snag with his princess and all of the money he saved whilst doing so. And he very clearly remembered going to sleep in his bed that night so why.... why did he wake up on the side of a beach with a crab pinching his ear?
Waking up to weird situations isn't quite something he's used to, but it's also not something he's that surprised to see considering the kinds of things he's gotten himself into with Star by his side. So he calmly plucks the crab off with a wince and tosses it into the ocean before approaching a villager with a gun in their hands, a warm smile on his face.]
Hey! What's the deal wi--
["Monster!" the villager yells, and Marco is very quickly faced with that gun pointed right at his chest.]
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold up! I'm clearly not a monster, and besides even if I was you shouldn't be pointing a gun at other people! You could kill someone with one of tho--
[The teen shuts up, when the gun is cocked and jabbed towards him. He lifts his hands up, and takes a step back, sweat starting to bead on the back of his neck.]
Oookay, let's not jump to anything here. We can clearly talk this out like a couple of calm, rational... OHMYGODWHAT'STHAT???
[As the villager looks to the side to see what the fuck Marco's screaming about, he kicks the gun out of his hand and books it.... running right into someone else only moments later in a true slap-stick fashion.]
Ow!

[Weeks go by, and it's finally time for changes. They've been... unpleasant, as one would expect from growing new limbs or having bones protrude out your skin or whatever else. But for Marco they've been especially unpleasant. Because he only got one change. And that was in the form of his right arm being replaced.............. with a tentacle.
It's bringing back horrific memories for one thing, but luckily this time it doesn't seem to have a mind of it's own besides wiggling about randomly as you'd expect. Still, it's a struggle having one of your arms turn into a fucking tentacle of all things. And you'll find him with his new appendage at a market in Bavan, knocking things off shelves on accident, dropping glass jars from his arm being too slippery, and despairing over the loss of that perfect apple he was going to buy but now lays on the ground, betrayed.]
I. Hate. This. Place!!!!
[After the final straw the teen dramatically falls to his knees and cries to the heaven right in the middle of the mall, and his tentacle arm thrashes around and trips anyone who walks nearby as if to injure Marco's pride even more.]
