I have been lucky escaping curses this month. The curse where people were trying to eat other people--

[He trails off as a more distant voice becomes far louder. The tone, however, clearly indicates whining.]

Peter, please, I am recording.

[Peter's indistinct complaints fade to an irate murmur.]

That was a curse I did not care for. But in better news, I have found Peter. Howl, Sophie, Tessa? I am bringing him to the house; it seemed cruel to leave him on his own. He may not agree, but he's not good at taking care of himself.

[There's a protest from Peter. Chekov shushes him.]

Also, Tessa? We need to talk, I think.

I can take care of myself JUST FINE!

action/voice; YES

[candothat]

Of course you can.

[That was less than sincere.]

action/voice;

[minigolfandsushi]

Fuck you. I've been the Master of Fucking Darkness for longer than you've been alive.


...meaning you're a baby. Not that I'm old.

[candothat]

[Peter gets a glare for calling him a baby.]

How long someone has been alive has no bearing on maturity.

voice; you said to threadjack and here i am

[mrsnose]

Oh - are you one of those vampires, then?

voice; (threadjacked by an 11 year old)

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

You sound old.


[Sorry. She's a bit of a troll. Also, she doesn't like whiny adults.]

[conesoldstober]

Fine with me of course.

... I'd make sure with Sophie first.

[mrsnose]

I am a very welcoming person, unlike others I know.

[conesoldstober]

Excuse me, who's the one actually letting all these people live in the home I purchased?

[candothat]

Howl, are you at all afraid of Sophie?

private;

[conesoldstober]

You would be too if you'd seen her on a bad day.

[duplify]

People trying to eat other people? That's the type of things these deities can do? [ spoken, it might sound mildly amusing (especially to her, for her own reasons), but the idea of some outside force having more influence on her than herself was...unnerving.]

[ Also, the girl talking might look a lot like this Tessa, though she shows no sign of even recognizing anything else he's said.]

[candothat]

[That's certainly not Tessa...]

It is, yes, although that is the first time I have seen something like that here.

[duplify]

So. The things responsible for dumping us here are bored and creative.

Great. Is the that the worst out the curses so far?

[mrsnose]

The house is big enough, I should think.

[candothat]

Thank you, Sophie.

[mrsnose]

It is technically Howl's house, but I admit I enjoy the way everyone defers to me.

[likeboudica]

I— yes. I will be at the library, and in my room later. [ So unsure. ]

[candothat]

Then I will talk to you when we are both home.

[There's a brief pause as he tries to word the other things he'd like to say, but the words just aren't there.]

[likeboudica]

Yes, of course. [ And she'll be waiting and— a little worried. She has a good idea what he might want to talk to her about, but not what it is that he would like to say about it. ]

[pigtailsbutterflyknives]

Well, I'm jealous. I got bodyswapped already and I've only been here a week. [Scoffing as only a child can.] This is bullshit.

[candothat]

That is the consensus, yes, but I like the City most days.

[fatespoken]

You don't have zombies in space?

[candothat]

Not that I am aware of, no, but anything is possible.

[fatespoken]

Well, it is space, to presuppose any sort of boundary, beyond the laws of physics - and even then - would be a human fallacy.
