Another weekend when pandemonium fairly grips the City--and the Network, for that matter. I've seen and heard far too much already, thank you. Heartbreak and confessions and murder and hatred and bizarre escapades--really, it's quite a lot to hear in a day.

I suppose I'll take it as a welcome relief that I've not been transformed into a cat or a child or a woman for the duration. I don't object to such transformations, but if I had a choice in the matter, I would decide against it.

In point of fact, I don't seem to be affected by these ordeals at all--aside from what I can hear and overhear. I'm almost suspicious about that.

Still, it's all far better than what we endured in October, I suppose. I don't like to say it, but perhaps I ought to be grateful that the curses, thusfar, have been rather mild. Even this weekend is rather milder than any curse in October.

All the same, I believe I shall be keeping myself off the streets and out of harm's way.

[ooc: Enjoy that old-school art, Poly~ And see how far Cain has come... Some notes: these scans are from an early scanlation, so Cain is not a count, but an earl (they don't have counts in England). Also, it's not Shuzette or Chuzette, but Suzette. So long as we're clear. The details of this memory hold, though. And Cain doesn't even know it's up here! Someone let him know...]

We were, yes.

And it does, yes.

You're the personal sort, aren't you?

Once again: I beg your pardon?

Cain.... [Face palm.] You can't have missed the clip. It's right there in plain view.

I do wish you'd get to the point.

I don't have a point. I was just curious. And a little concerned.

You needn't be concerned for me. It's quite kind of you, but I was under the impression that our marriage was dissolved at the end of that curse, so you've no real obligation in that regard.

Uh? I'd kinda...forgotten about that, actually.

I'm not doing it out of obligation, either. Can't I care about you as a person, rather than be falsely in love with you for a curse?

I had too, more or less. So I suppose that makes us even.

You may, if you so choose. As I see it, the City simply wanted to embarrass me again.

Then, just so we're clear. It wasn't an obligation thing.

...the City's good at that.

Fair enough; we're quite clear.

Yes, it is.

Alright. I'll leave you to deal with it however...you do that, then.

Thank you.

I'm sure it would be too much to ask you to forget this too.

I might, in a few days. But I'm just one person.

And I'm not the one that had to live it, either.

I've certainly never forgotten it.

I wouldn't expect you to.

But if you want me to not mention it to you again, that I can do. [He wasn't going to, anyway.]

Somehow, I don't especially care if you mention it or not. Suzette is very often on my mind. Your mentioning all this would simply be a part of that.

Alright. Then, whatever happens.

Take care.

And you as well. I hope you're not cursed today.

Mmm, I am. But I like mine, so it's okay.

Fair enough, then.
