Heh, looks like a pretty crazy day today, doesn't it?

[The guy in the video, if any of you happen to recognize him, seems sort of different today. Taller, for one. Maybe a deeper voice? Whatever the difference is, his smile is the same as ever, and he grins cheerfully at the camera.]

You guys shouldn't let curses get you down though! Whether you're suddenly bigger or smaller or feathered or lost or a brand new parent, you should face it head on and smile. It might even be fun!

[He glances away from the screen after that last comment, as if some sudden thought had caught him by surprise.]

Come to think of it, I should probably go out and do something too.

[[Elmer's aged-up today! By quite a lot. Replies will be coming from unfrowning!]]

I don't think curses are meant to be fun.

[unfrowning]

Fun is what you make of it! It's always better to look at the silver lining, don't you think?

[thepointyend]

What if there isn't one?

[unfrowning]

Then we'll just have to make one!

[thepointyend]

Are you always happy?

[unfrowning]

You could say that. It's a lot better than being sad, anyway! Haha.

[errandry]

That's ... totally backwards.

[unfrowning]

Haha, is it?

[errandry]

You know, most people find something fun and then smile.

[unfrowning]

Well of course it's easier to smile when there's something to smile about. But laughter is infectious, you know, so we should try laughing and smiling for everyone else! Come on, come on, smile!

[errandry]

... man, you seriously don't change, huh. Did your mind really age up too?

[unfrowning]

Haha, are you saying I never grow up? Like Peter Pan! I know a kid who'd make a much better Peter Pan than me though.

[errandry]

I meant mentally, mentally! And yeah? Who's that?

[unfrowning]

Czes! You've never met him. Hey, could you tell me your name again? I feel like it's been so long, you're almost a stranger! [More laughter.]

[errandry]

It's Kazu! You're seriously from the future? Just got yanked out of your timeline and everything?

[unfrowning]

That's right! I'm a time traveler now, just like those guys in the movies.

Feathered?

[unfrowning]

Or furred!

[sixwinged]

Furred..?

[unfrowning]

Have you ever been feathered before?

[sixwinged]

How does someone get 'feathered'?

video;

[unfrowning]

Well the easiest way would be to get tarred and feathered, where you cover someone in tar and then throw feathers on them. Or you could magically turn into something feathery, like a bird!

[ He doesn't understand you at all, Elmer. ]

[ Excuse Akito, while he just. stares. ]

[Aww how cute. Elmer smiles back! But that's a given, isn't it.]

...Hey, wanna see a magic trick?

Magic trick?
