[Lena is sitting with a tile wall behind her and an epic pout on her face. She's also wearing a yellow raincoat, the hood pulled up, as water beats down on the top of her head. She pans the camera up to show a little black raincloud above her head.]

This sucks.

[Her voice echoes off the tiles. Yep, she's sitting in her bathtub.]

I can't Cast anything that will get rid of it, or block it. Not unless it's against my head like this hood. Has anyone had this curse before? Is there any way to stop it?



[ooc: Lena's been hit with the Find A Rainbow Day curse. Her pessimism keeps the black rain cloud, but cheerfulness will bring a rainbow! She's just too grumpy to try and be positive.]

Definitely. Then you can do that... infinite incandescent thing.

[Okay, that totally wasn't it. And she knows enough of Latin to have picked up on it. She just wasn't really paying attention at the time because the water was driving her insane.]

[That gets a small smile.]

Finite incantatem.

[claimyourself]

Right. [She smiles back.] That thing. It's very effective. I wonder if there's a Caster equivalent. I don't know everything yet about my sort of magic, and sometimes I doubt I ever will.

[aperfectthird]

I'm sure there must be. It's a very simple incantation - what do you say to stop a Cast?

[claimyourself]

To stop one? I'm not sure we say anything. We just try to counter it somehow.

[She shrugs, feeling woefully unprepared to have such a conversation.]

[aperfectthird]

That's what finite incantatem does, basically. It counters most of the spells one encounters on a regular basis - including curses, apparently.

[claimyourself]

At least you have something you can try for the next curse, right?

[aperfectthird]

Precisely.

Shall I leave you and your, ah, spectrum friend, then?

[claimyourself]

Yeah, thank you for coming over. I was lucky you could help.

[aperfectthird]

I'm happy to help. Take care, Miss Duchannes; I'll see you later.
