POSTER: NAKURA — @ 8:36 PM, 06/21/xxxxxx

We've really had a streak of good luck these past few days, haven't we? Since it looks like things are quieting down again, would anyone be willing to make small wagers while we're waiting for the shoe to fall?

Say, to give one example--two greens say there won't be a curse tomorrow!

Well?

Trouble finding a job?

o i love a good bet.

two greens that there is a curse and a drink on me.

[uprouse]

Unfortunately I can't drink one bit! But I think my odds are pretty good as they stand.

doesn't have to be alcoholic. maybe juice? tea? chocolate milk?

[uprouse]

What a relief! Something like that certainly sounds suitable. And yet... you must be very confident.

[ironmanic]

trust me that's just how i am normally. it's almost like my job to take these risks. i've gotten good at em.

[uprouse]

A professional? Haha, I guess my luck must have soured on me pretty quickly...

[ironmanic]

not your fault but hey keep your hopes up. it's not like you can really tell when curses are gonna happen anyway.

[uprouse]

Aren't you being too modest? After all if you're correct, then you'll win.

[ironmanic]

i've been called a lot of things and modest definitely isn't one of them

How long have you been here?

text, etc; the latest... tagback... of all time...

[uprouse]

[ what an unfortunate coincidence, Nakura loves it. ]

Just a few weeks so far! Aaa, is it really obvious?

voice; HI 8V

[dignity_misery]

Yes. The curses are usually two to three times a week.

[uprouse]

Only usually? I hope you don't mean there's been record of more in the past.

[dignity_misery]

For a while there weren't any, sometimes there it will go on for days at a time.

[The shrug is implied in her tone.]

As far as I know, any combination is possible. So, yes. Usually it's two or three.

[prosopopoeia]

The odds are not in your favor, but my lab could use cleaning.

[uprouse]

Eh? Why would you say that?

[prosopopoeia]

It has already been quiet several days now, tomorrow looks promising.

[uprouse]

"Promising"? You aren't worried, then?

[prosopopoeia]

Worry is wasted on what cannot be controlled. It must be adapted to and prepared for, as best as we are able.
