first law ✎ life is hard

[extend]

Y'know, they've got this classic curse out there—from American rumor, I'm thinking—and it goes: may you live in interesting times.

All I wanna say is—if I ever offended a witch sometime? It's 'cause I didn't see this coming. You think we could re-negotiate the punishment?

[ ooc; throw anything. I dare you. ]

[ . . . suddenly, on top of Anna—?!

no, also on top of Lavi, because life is hard. ]

Hah. Guess that was fast.

[extend]

[ meanwhile, at the bottom of the heap - ]

YEAH NOTHING'S FEELING REAL FAST RIGHT NOW

[rosescape]

[ Blinks, glancing around with wide eyes.

...what is making that -- oh. They're on top of a person... ]

Mikoto. [ We're sitting on someone ): ]

[clansman]

Hm?

[ this caught him mid-nap, okay. ]

[rosescape]

[ Looking downwards pointedly at the poor person bearing all of Mikoto's weight. ]

[clansman]

Aaaaaa. I got it.

[ picking himself up, with a final wrench bracing against Lavi's spine. he offers a hand to Anna, too. ]

[extend]

Definitely starting to get why they call these curses. . .

[ STAYING FLOPPED!!! clearly it is safer here while flopped. ]

[rosescape]

[ she takes his hand and hops onto her feet ] Thank you, Mikoto.

[rosescape]

[ buuut she's a little worried for the person who hasn't sat up yet so she leans in to peer curiously at them.

after a few seconds: ]

...Sorry.

[extend]

[ Mikoto just waits, easily used to being shunted to a side, already patting his pockets down for a smoke while Lavi gives the the saddest of waves :( ]

It's fine, it's fine. . . think I've felt heavier before.

[sunbrella]

[And suddenly there is a gas mask right behind you.]

Can punishments be negotiated?

[rosescape]

[ step 1: do something bad
step 2: apologise
step 3: apology accepted
step 4: ...???? ]

...A doctor? Do you need a doctor? [ A ... doctor, right? ]

[extend]

[ WHY RIGHT BEHIND HIM!! ]

. . . weeeeeeeeeeeell, you've gotta keep hope, yeah?

[sixwinged]

Oh.




It's you.

[extend]

Nah, you're okay! Just tell your friend not to eat anything before he goes jumpin' on other people, maybe.

[sixwinged]

Well, it could always be worse.

[clansman]

[ at which point.


Mikoto.

looks down. ]

Hah? Something you were gonna say. . . ?

[extend]

[ ..................................... ]

[extend]

That's soundin' like the voice of experience!
