Dammit!

[ Li, red-cheeked and flustered, fiddles with his device. ]

...Um, there seem to be alot of curses afoot today. Bad ones. [ More fiddling. His blush deepens. ] Also - I-I think something's wrong here. My device is --

[ Well. You can see for yourself what his device is showing. ]

 

THE SHOCKING TRUTH!!!!

A TALE OF SEX, LIES AND BETRAYAL!

Ladies (and gentlemen who adore the gentlemen), have you ever met this stranger? The one who charms you just by the way he smiles? Everything about him puts your heart at ease. Even when he farts you're endeared rather than disgusted. Maybe you have a taste for danger, but realize that your life could be endangered by this cold-blooded conman!!!
Dozens of women everywhere have been taken in by his lies. He's sabotaged careers, ruined marriages, emptied bank accounts and destroyed lives!!!!
IF YOU SEE HIM, AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! HE IS A SOCIAL PREDATOR WHO WILL EXPLOIT EVERYONE HE MEETS. HE HAS NO HEART, NO CONSCIENCE, NO REMORSE. Don't give him ANY power. Don't let him become a larger-than-life factor in your world.
He's a criminal! Someone please arrest him!
He's a thief of hearts! All he commits are crimes!

[OOC: Hit with Tabloid Trash! The City gets a list of ladies who got tangled up in his business in-canon. Mr. Assassin is PISSED.]

Well, that's some write-up.

[sympathyforme]

Oh my, senpai. You never told.

[mortemscintilla]

[ sssssscreaaaaaaam!!!! ]

It's not true!

[mortemscintilla]

B-Because it's a lie!

[ 0////0 ]

[sympathyforme]

You sure? You seem like quite the heartbreaker to me...

[mortemscintilla]

Not even close.

This is a terrible curse...

[sympathyforme]

So what's your favorite line?

[mortemscintilla]

[ Hideous sobbing. ]

I-I don't have one! This is all fabricated!

[sympathyforme]

Oh, crying...

I never tried that. Maybe I should start calling you sensei.

[mortemscintilla]

I'm telling you.

It's a misunderstanding.

[ He hates the City so much right now. ]

[sympathyforme]

Do you say that to all the girls, too?

[mortemscintilla]

[ He doesn't say anything to the girls. Just beds 'em and sheds 'em. ]

Of course not.

[ Head in hands. ]

[sympathyforme]

So I'm special?

[mortemscintilla]

[ ;; ]

Kira-san.

This really isn't funny.

[sympathyforme]

You need to relax, senpai.

[mortemscintilla]

I would.

But the curse won't let me.

[ Your trolling didn't help either. ]

[sympathyforme]

No one seems to care much, so don't worry. We should go for a drink, womanize some.

[mortemscintilla]

That's true. It's still unnerving. I don't like that sort of attention.

[ Nevermind that he knows those faces. That one of them is his sister's. Just what is the City playing at? ]

[mortemscintilla]

...A drink sounds good.

I'll pass on the womanizing, though.

[sympathyforme]

You into guys, senpai?

1/2

[mortemscintilla]

[ Choooooooke choooooke ]

...No!

[mortemscintilla]

I'm just not - in a mood for any, um, - having.

[sympathyforme]

And this number actually works on girls?

[mortemscintilla]

You know it doesn't.

[sympathyforme]

I think you're not being all that truthful. Come on, let's get drunk. What bar do you like?
