Hello - is everyone doing better today? The curse from yesterday reminded me a little of how dangerous the power of words can be when you've little to no idea that your words have power. Like me, I used to talk to hats.

I mean, I used to work in a hat shop, my family's hat shop, and when I entered as the new apprentice, I'd be left by myself for many nights, so I took to talking to hats. I'd tell a bonnet she'd marry into money, or another hat that she'd be as fresh as a spring rose - compliments like those - and I thought it was just a way of passing time. Until I started to realise that my predictions would come true - as if the hats were listening to my orders. It did grand for the business, but there are consequences to letting your mouth run.

Which is why...yesterday, when I got an inkling of what the curse could be like, I decided to stay quiet. For the best.

But that's all over today, so I get to congratulate Charlie and Merlin - that's a nice name, hmm - on their bravery and love for one another, and the celebration of their wedding. May your happiness last for a very long time.

Is this the first wedding taking place in the City? Or have there been others? [SHE'S JUST CURIOUS, HOWL, NO NEED TO TAKE HINTS OR ANYTHING.]

[ Definitely spells. Maybe even bacon? ]

Probably. [ Since they wouldn't remember the one here. ] I'll have to ask them if they ever come back again...
blackshadow: Looking over at something with surprise/interest. (oh hey [:o])

[ Bacon. ]

[ He suddenly feels like he's under scrutiny, so he quickly explains: ] It's not like that; sometimes she shows up with other visitors. I wouldn't want her to be stuck here again.

[ Definitely not a lie. ]

Right...

...Aren't there people that left here that you want to see again?

It's the same for me... It doesn't feel right that someone would just disappear suddenly and never be seen them again. [ Even though it happens and he does it himself. ]
blackshadow: Looking down at something a little sadly. (there's a penny [:(])

The only difference is that they never knew they were gone in the first place...
blackshadow: Tired like he's just rolled out of bed. (Summer heat [:<])

Exactly...

Anyway, this is pretty depressing to talk about. Sorry... So have you been friends with those two for long?
blackshadow: Eyes closed and headbowed with a small smile. (when I left home [:')])

That's all that really counts, isn't it? Do you not really know Merlin yet, though...?

This message was probably a good place to start if you two just don't run into each other when you meet Charlie. If they're the type of people that are always together, anyway...
blackshadow: One of those cocky eyes-closed smiles. (better like this [>:3] [:D])

Ah- it hasn't happened yet? I guess as long as you don't do it during the ceremony, that'd be a pretty good time.
