When his guild arrived for their monthly visit to Fairy Tail, he had not expected to walk through the swinging doors to the chaos before him. No, he expected a full-out brawl, or Natsu jumping at him demanding they fight. Not the sight on Fairy Tails own Celestial Mage sitting on her best friends back, slamming the Fire Dragon Slayers face into the wooden floor while the rest of the guild stayed back, silent and watching. Or the fact that every word she seemed to speak came out funny. Oh, no, Cobra had no idea what to make of the whole situation.
Though from the thoughts flying around the busty blonde's head, he was glad he was not Natsu at that moment. Giving him an idea of what the hell the pink haired idiot had done this time along with several cringe-worthy images of what she wanted to do with the boy. And as comical as it was, Cobra decided that the silence that was coming from the rest of the guild was an excellent way to go. Especially with some of the thoughts that were racing through all of their minds. Slowly, and as quietly as possible, Cobra sidestepped, waving a hand to the rest of his independent guild to keep quiet as they entered.
He was pretty sure that they would enjoy the show until they were noticed, preferably after the incensed blond got everything out of her system. Not that he blamed her as he finally pieced everything together. Natsu had found (apparently another) old piece of paper with strange words on it. And had shown it to Lucy, (again) and read what was on it — causing the magic imbued in the piece of paper to activate, thus causing her to speak every single word backward though he had to agree with her mental rant that at least it was not body swapping again.
"ToidI, Tahw erew uoy gnikniht!" she screeched as she let go of his hair.
Cobra wanted to go over and poke Natsu to see if he could get a reaction. Cause there was a beautiful face shaped indent in the wooden floor where he had been smashed repeatedly. A smile was curling his lips as his amethyst eyes caught bright cinnamon-brown eyes, that narrowed on him.
Cobra, hello! Sorry, I am a bit inconvenienced at the moment "Arboc, olleh! Yrros I ma a tib decneinevnocni ta eht tnemom," She said to him.
Knowing exactly what she was saying, he nodded his head. Motioning for her to finish what she as doing as the annoying blue fuzzball that was Natsu's exceed flew down and landed by his friend's body. Tears that he knew were crocodile tears, as he patted the unconscious pinkette's head whimpering about how cruel Lucy was, all the while mentally laughing at him. Two-faced little bastard.
When he felt a hand on his arm, Cobra looked down to see Lucy smiling warmly up at him. In her other hand were a pen and paper. Shaking his head, he leaned down and whispered to her.
"I can hear your soul, and it speaks perfectly, you don't need that shit, bright eyes."
The way her eyes lit up at what he said, she relaxed and motioned for him to follow her to their regular table, that he shared with the rest of his guild, sans their leader. Who had already sidled up to the Hammer wielding, psychotic Red-head.
"So, he was an obtuse brat again. Do you want me to help figure out how to reverse this?" he asked. Getting a soft ringing from Lucy's soul that let him know she would appreciate it.
