"Tango it's a shop, people are supposed to come and go freely," Impulse says, face-palming as Tango glares defensively towards their concrete shop.

"I know, it's just annoying me," Tango growls tail flicking and wings flaring out slightly.

Impulse looks thoughtful at Tango for a moment, "This is probably because of you getting turned into a Phoenix."

Tango nods half shrugging in agreement, "I'm going home, call me when you're done."

"Will do, don't do anything stupid," Impulse calls behind as Tango takes off and flyes home.

Once Tango gets back to his base he falls face-first onto the glass observing platform in his attempts to try to fix some minor issues. Night is falling, and Zedaph, Xisuma, and Impulse would be arriving soon to discuss everything that had happened so far.

Xisuma's the first to arrive, EX is following behind him and leaves after he tells Tango to be done before midnight. Xisuma rolls his eyes, tail flicking gently in mock annoyance, saying, "He's such a Mother hen."

Tango smiles at this, "Well, Maybe if you slept he wouldn't get on your case so much."

Xisuma gasps in mock offense as Impulse enters, handing Tango a few diamonds that they had gained from the concrete store. A few minutes later Zedaph stumbles in a little bit covered in dirt from his mining attempt with beef.

"So, how did that go?" Impulse asks, raising an eyebrow.

"Well, I got like two diamonds out of it so not horrible," Zedaph Shrugs as Tango walks over tail flicking and starts brushing the dirt off.

At this point since everyone is there Xisuma decides to start the discussion, he flips on a voice recorder and begins, "Ok so, Tango, can you explain what exactly has happened?"

Tango nods, his tail wrapping around his ankle, "Well, I have, like super awesome cartoon powers now. After that I started turning into a Phoenix, I got pointed ears, fangs, and little claws. I also grew wings and a tail."

Xisuma looks thoughtful for a moment before continuing, "And if you don't mind me asking, have there been any sort of mental changes?"

At this Tango's wings poof up a little and curl around him giving him an odd hug, "I've been getting really defensive over stuff like false came to our shop earlier and for some reason, I didn't like that she went in without permission? I know it shouldn't matter but that was bugging me."

"The new instincts and whatnot can be really annoying and confusing but you'll be fine. Everyone understands that the meteor affects everyone differently and can end up changing the way you function," Xisuma says as he stands up tail flicking his spines quivering from the movement, "I'll go ahead and add these to my notes and get started on what we're going to tell everyone once Doc gives the all-clear."

"Alright, take care," Zedaph says, waving at the rapidly disappearing figure.

Impulse looks at Tango then at Zedaph, "Welp, I'm going home, Night."

Zedaph shrugs yawning into his sleeve as he bids farewell to Tango and makes his way home.

Tango gives a wide toothy yawn as he makes his way into his bedroom. Even though they had taken the time and effort to make him a bed that would be suitable for wings, he couldn't sleep. It was like something was missing.

............

As the next few days pass Tango still feels as if something is not quite right, something nags in the back of his mind every time he passes by others bases. Eventually, he gives in to the instincts, it's a good thing he was by Doc's base when he did this otherwise he might have had some trouble before he could attempt to explain himself.

Doc is in his villager pit, he's moving some of them up to his tower. His attention is gained when he hears a loud clatter from his house. Convinced that it's Bdubs or Keralis trying something he leaves the villagers and heads up. Once he gets there he slowly walks upstairs being as quiet as possible. He rounds the corner to find Tango sitting on the floor, tail twitching and wings slumped and splayed out across the floor, "Tango? What are you doing here?"

Tango looks up at Doc his eyes blurry and unfocused, "I don't know? It's all hazy?"

"Come here," Doc says as he picks Tango up and sets him down carefully in the nest he has in his starter base, where he makes a trilling noise in the back of his throat and falls asleep.

Once he gets Tango Situated Doc pulls out his communicator and messages Bdubs asking if he could come over for a bit. He sent a message agreeing to come over in a few minutes.

When he arrives Bdubs is greeted by the sight of Doc pacing back-and-forth, "Doc, Is something wrong?"

"Yeah, it's Tango," Doc explains what happened to Tango then takes a deep breath, "So, you know how my instincts are a bit behind?"

"Yeah, when you follow other creepers around, right?"

"Yeah, even though I'm an adult my instincts are still, sort of juvenile. It's definitely starting to properly match up though. Anyway, I think Tango's getting bird-like instincts, and they might be starting off behind."

Bdubs nods thoughtfully, "Ok, what should we do?"

"I'm not sure, we can't move him till he wakes up," Doc says as he starts up the stairs.

Bdubs nods sitting down next to Doc, they start talking and after a few hours Tango wakes up.

He's understandably confused but willing to listen to Doc's explanation, "So, let me get this straight, you think I'm getting bird instincts?"

Doc nods, "Yes."

"The reason I've been having trouble sleeping is because of me wanting a nest," He says voice flat before his ears twitch, "Oh, that's probably why I've been feeling weird when I pass by other people's bases."

Doc nods in agreement, "Ok, how about you go back home and I'll go ahead and get you the stuff you need to make a nest."

"Yeah, I'll do that," Tango says, spreading his wings and jumping out the window heading down to the nether portal.

.............

Has trouble thermal regulating if it's not a warm biome and Server meeting.

It was a few days after Doc had brought over piles of blankets and Tango was sleeping well once more. Although he had been caught one time by the button when he had fallen asleep in Docs nest. The creeper wasn't too happy about that and had hissed at Tango nudging him out. Tango once awake apologized profusely to Doc.

Currently, Tango was making his way to the ice biome with Impulse. He was out of ice and Etho's shop needed restocking. The colder it got the more unfocused Tango became. His speech was getting slower and slightly slurred. He would stumble over nothing. Needless to say, Impulse was getting concerned for his friend.

"Hey, Tango let's stop for a minute," Impulse asks out of growing concern.

Tango stops walking and turns to face Impulse. It was clear that he was shivering from the cold. He's Wrapped up in his wings and his tail is curling around his waist.

"Ok we're going home," Impulse decides as he turns around grabbing Tango's arm, "I know you need the ice but I think it can wait until Etho restocks."

Tango nods in agreement, wings poofing up in attempts to stay warm. He manages to stutter out an agreement as they make their way back to Tango's base.

Once there and Tango gets warmed up and is back to normal, he calls Xisuma to tell him what happened. Xisuma responds telling him to keep an eye on that and that he would be calling a server meeting in a few hours.

By the time of the meeting everyone had gathered at the town hall all waiting for Xisuma to start talking, "Ok, you all know what's going on. The meteor has affected Tango. He's been turned into some sort of phoenix and he has grown wings and a tail. He also has some instincts that popped up. A bit like Doc he prefers sleeping in a nest. If you want more about that ask him. He also has a few cartoon behaviors. It's not a big deal, he just acts like a cartoon sometimes."

At this point, Tango's wings were curling around himself and his tail was flicking a bit uncomfortable at all the attention that he was getting.

.................
