[ ACTION & VIDEO ]

[signatures]

[ There's a video recording feed starting up of Eames panning the camera around the City - specifically, too, to it's citizens who happen to be wandering around in an apparent daze. He appears to be sitting at an outdoor table to one restaurant or another, if the chairs and other non-affected patrons are anything to go by, and the bottle of beer with condensation pooling at the bottom in front of him. ]

I seem to recall an episode where all of our water sources were spouting out beer. Is it too much of a stretch to consider the idea this time someone's put a sedative in our well?

[ Then, quieter: ] Or a hallucinogen, if some of these stories are to go by.

I've never heard of a free year's supply of toothpaste being at the end of a rainbow, I have to say. But I suppose I'm just being close minded, hm?

[ ooc: replies can be either action or network! ]

It would have been nice to have in the desert, I guess.

[ Toothpaste. Okay then. ]

Did they say what flavor of toothpaste?

[signatures]

Cinnamon, I think. Which is questionable enough altogether.

Beer from the water sources? I'm suddenly sad I wasn't present for that particular curse.

It got rather old quickly, I assure you. Particularly if you found out about it while in the shower.

You function under the presumption that any water supply won't carry trace pharmaceuticals after extended human exposure.

The answer to your question: no, abnormalities were not present after testing.

[signatures]

Trace pharmaceuticals are a given. But a high enough dosage to the same general effect on only certain members of the City?

I certainly like science well enough but it seems far more like a curse to me. Or something certainly more naughty than an accident.

Toothpaste? Really?

That's what he told me. Who am I to judge?

[totallyinaband]

As far as curses go, this one is pretty damn gay.

[signatures]

It could be worse.

There could be double rainbows.

[archivy]

The explanation that it is a curse seems more likely than sedatives or hallucinogens in the water supply.

[signatures]

This is true. I just don't always like to cry 'curse' and give the deities credit.

[waitedforyears]

[ Flopping down in the chair next to him, eyebrows raised. ] Toothpaste, yeah?

[signatures]

Toothpaste.

[ He nudges the second drink he'd ordered toward her. ]

What would you do with so much toothpaste?

[likeboudica]

Do you truly believe it is something in the well, Mr Eames?

[signatures]

Oh, it could be anything. Something in the well, a curse, perhaps they just enjoy too high a cocktail of drugs, so on and so forth.

[shall_yield_us]

...oh, always. It's the hallmark of your exceedingly conservative character.

If I am anything, I am certainly a man of traditional morals.

[wouldnotkindly]

Isn't it usually gold at the end of a rainbow? [Look at him, being proactive and starting conversations with people he doesn't entirely trust.]

[signatures]

[ How nice to see you're still alive! ]

By common myth, certainly.

[guardianjoker]

I guess that's possible-- but it seems like a curse to me.

I'm sure we'll find out once we hit the twenty-four hour rule. Then the fourty-eight hour one. And then if it's still about, there might be cause for concern.

[ Pig is far too lazy to text, so you get a video of a very young looking Fischer face twin, Eames. Sorry this one has an Irish accent and can't speak properly to save his life. ]

This town spillin' booze all up in the place, drinkie, yeah?

[video]

[signatures]

Are you the type who would have enjoyed it?

[entangles]

I think they call that a matter of perspective.

[signatures]

My being close minded or everything else?
