What time is it? It's CRACKPLOT TIME!

So for a while now I've been kicking around the idea of a bar-wide crackplot in which pups get regressed back to childhood. Now, with the aid of [personal profile] cape_and_wizard_hat, I have a mechanism to make it happen.

The short version: Twilight and Trixie get into a contest to see who can cast a proper Age Spell, it goes awry, and various bar patrons, including themselves, are suddenly considerably younger than they were a moment ago. Hijinks Ensue.

A few specifics:
  1. Only pups who are on the Milliways grounds at the moment the spell is cast will potentially be affected. Muns can, of course, Millitime and/or handwave the transformation as needed.

  2. How far back the pup regresses is up to the mun, but it has to represent a significant change. No fair turning a 33-year-old into a 30-year-old, for example, unless that pup's body/abilities/whatever have dramatically changed in those three years.

  3. [Edited for clarity] While the spell will affect every pup's body, whether a given pup's mind is affected as well is up to the mun. If you want your pup to be a child in mind and body, that's fine; if you want them to be an adult mind in a child's body, that's cool too.

  4. The spell will only change you into a form you have had at some point in the past. Pups who were "born" as fully formed adults will therefore not be changed into children, because they never were children to begin with.

  5. Everyone will be changed back to their normal selves at the conclusion of the plot. THIS IS NOT NEGOTIABLE.
Now, the question is: When should the plot start and how long should it last? I want to make sure everyone who wants to participate can do so, which means working around everymun's schedules. I'd like to have it happen sometime in the month of October and conclude before Halloween, but otherwise I am flexible like bendy straw. If you're interested, comment to say when you're available and we'll hash out a timeframe from there.

ETA: [personal profile] sdelmonte has floated the idea that the spell could also turn child pups into adults. Anyone interested in that?

The plot summary above worded it oddly, and multiple people weren't clear on on that point. So I asked. No need to jump down my throat for being interested in your plot.
