Glad I was spared this weekend. Would've just made things more complicated.

Anyone got any ideas how the hell that works? Is it really just random, the people that end up cursed?

And...how much about the deities do you guys know? Violent tendencies?

The cupcakes were cool, but we need to have a talk. Meet me at Xanadu within the next hour.

Private

[worldofourown]

But I'm busy~

[ He so doesn't want to talk. ]

Private

[beyourarmy]

This isn't debatable.

You either meet me there, or I'll go to you.

Private

[worldofourown]

Fine then.

Come over. I'll be at the gazebo in the garden.

[ Whatever could the Cherub want~? ]

Private --> action;

[beyourarmy]

You better be.

[And so he flies there. It's quicker. Wings fold behind him, but stay out in the open. This either happens when he forgets about them, or he's mad and needs their power.]

You kidnapped a kid?! [No, he didn't even bother with a hello. SO RUDE.]

Action!

[worldofourown]

[ He'll be seated, immaculate and indifferent, under the shaded canopy. ]

...Liked the cupcakes?

[ Why, yes. Ignoring the question. ]

[indecent_butterfly]

That some of the curses themselves are random why not those that get hit with them?

As for the rest...who knows. But do watch your own.

[beyourarmy]

But that's what I'm curious about. I mean, it'd be hard to prove anything, but what if it's not completely random at all?

I will, I will. That's why I'm asking first.

[indecent_butterfly]

Not random but predestined?

One did mean more in general, but especially with the unknown. They've held those most powerful from not only our world but so many others as well. If they are the ones who do control after all.

[beyourarmy]

Not necessarily. It could be picked, which means it's not random, but it's got nothing to do with destiny. Just find it interesting the one weekend me being cursed would have interfered with someone else's curses, I wasn't.

That's why I want to learn more about this, though. We don't have to sit around and do nothing. But I can't afford to just fly off the handle on this one, either. Gotta do this right.

[bedsidemanners]

It's always random.

[beyourarmy]

How do you know that for a fact?

[bedsidemanners]

I don't. But there's not a pattern that I've seen.

[beyourarmy]

...how long you been here, again?

[Okay, Justin's a stalker with some hacking skills. Now you know.]

Setsuna? What do you know about a vampire named Karl?

Filtered // Unhackable

[beyourarmy]

More than I wish I knew. Why?

Filtered // Unhackable

[othersdie]

There have been inquiries. He's apparently making threats and injuring--or killing--people, if what I've been told is correct. Something needs to be done.

All I know about Karl is that he's a vampire, insane, and probably shouldn't be locked up.

Filtered // Unhackable

[beyourarmy]

Definitely should not be locked up. He gets worse insanity wise if he is.

I'm trying my best to reason with him. He's...kind of a friend. But he's a vampire, so it has to be kept in mind that preying on humans for blood is, well, instinctive for him. I'm at least trying to keep him off the kids.

I haven't heard about any threats, though. He hasn't admitted to any, either.

[errandry]

... You just asking, or what?

[beyourarmy]

For now.

But I'd like to actually do something with those answers. Well, not the curse ones. The deity ones.

[errandry]

There's five of 'em, right? I dunno if they've ever struck anybody down, though... besides the new guy.

[beyourarmy]

What new guy? What happened? I probably missed that.

[firstaid]

I... honestly don't know how it works. I was spared myself, but my friend wasn't...

[beyourarmy]

Yeah, it's kinda weird that way.

Hello. Don't think I've seen you around before.

[firstaid]

Oh, I've been here for a while, but left for a few months do due... circumstances, I suppose. My name is Estellise, and it's a pleasure to meet you!

[beyourarmy]

Haven't seen you before, either way. I wouldn't forget a pretty face like that.

Estellllllise.

Quite a bit of a name there. Could compete with the angelic names.

I'm Setsuna.
