As your vision clears, what do you see?
The moon!? How much time has passed? (Original)
I woke up in a daze, momentarily confused about where I was. There was a faint white glow coming from somewhere above my head. The moon!? How much time had passed? I went to wail but could barely open my mouth, let alone force a sound out.
I was panicking now. I couldn't move my arms or my legs. I could blink, but that didn't help clear up my blurred vision. I quickly became very aware that I was totally naked despite never fully undressing for the tendrils before. I panicked harder, realizing I couldn't remember exactly what had happened. I just settled down for a meal and then went to have a little experiment with a new plant I had just found…
There was a rustling amongst the branches of the nearby underbrush. My heart raced faster, and my breathing grew heavier; at least the ability to do that wasn't taken from me. I tried to turn my head to see if anyone was nearby, but I couldn't even raise my neck. The rustling grew louder, but I didn't notice any distinct footsteps. Fear flooded my mind, and I felt myself crying, drops of moisture starting to run down my face.
Just then, a green vine from my right reached toward my face, I winced with all the facial muscles that could still clench, preparing for a strike, but the vine instead wiped the tears from beneath my eyes. A shape came into my field of vision, and soon, I was face to face with a… woman? My fear faltered for a moment as it warred with awestruck confusion.
She was beautiful. Her skin was a deep green, clearly not made of flesh and blood like mine. Her hair, if that was the right word, of lush ivy flowed in a delicate wave until it touched the ground, gently dragging against the dirt as she moved. She wore a sort of ‘clothing’ consisting of only a long, unkempt dress made entirely of leaves that covered a set of staggering breasts. Lower on her body were a set of great hips thicker than the trunks of any tree in the forest. Her legs, on the other hand... weren't there. Instead, a mass of green vines writhed aimlessly as if independent from the grace that made up the rest of her body. It took a moment for the perspective to sink in, but she was huge! I couldn’t wrap my arms around her if I tried.
"What... who are you?" I whispered timidly.
The woman smiled but didn't speak.
"Can you not understand me? Who are you?" I asked with a hint of aggression.
