I seem to have met some acquaintance with one of those curses everyone was talking about. This is distressing. I was going to see if I could find out a little bit more about that clock today — I hear it all the time, always ticking — but I don't think that will be happening after all.

Unless it's an emergency, I will not be out today. If it is an emergency, then... [Deep sigh.] I'll think of something.

Well, good thing we're not having the wedding anytime soon.

voice;

[greatcherubim]

You shouldn't be having the wedding at all.

voice;

[beyourarmy]

...are you okay today?

voice;

[greatcherubim]

I will be.

voice;

[beyourarmy]

Okay.

Well, if you need anything, I'll be kinda busy, but not so busy I couldn't get you something.

[bedsidemanners]

Really? What's the issue?

voice;

[greatcherubim]

[Sharply.]

It is none of your concern.

voice;

[bedsidemanners]

Are you ill? You sound healthy enough.

voice;

[greatcherubim]

I'm not ill. I'm fine.

Just bring me some tea and leave it by the door, will you?

voice;

[bedsidemanners]

You'll have to elaborate first, I'm afraid.

[indecent_butterfly]

If the ticking is a concern, you should look into a room mate. Or pet.

[greatcherubim]

I have roommates already. Not that I understand your concern at all.

But you can't tell it doesn't make you think sometimes. Surely, even you can become philosophical about the passage of time.

[indecent_butterfly]

This One was trying to be polite, the information is not always common knowledge among those who have recently arrived and it is said the noise can cause mental instability.

One thinks not on the passing of time, but on the coming time. What good is that which has already happened?

[greatcherubim]

I wasn't aware. [But she's not really surprised.] What else isn't common knowledge among those of us who have only recently arrived?

Many things. The past can tell us quite a bit about the future.

[indecent_butterfly]

It is hard to tell until the question arises.

And yet, those who hold onto the past too tight can never move forward.

[Michael will appreciate her staying in her room later.]

You're cursed?

Voice;

[greatcherubim]

I'm afraid so, Michael. Please don't worry too much for my sake. It isn't anything that serious.

Voice;

[gotashortfuse]

Okay.

By the way, ya live with us so you'll stop hearing it after a bit.

Voice;

[greatcherubim]

That's a relief. It's gotten quieter since I arrived here. I had wondered.

Mmm, but what shall I do when I leave?

Voice;

[gotashortfuse]

There's people out there and you'll be doing shit. No big deal.

[sympathyforme]

Please, let there be an emergency.

[Is he praying? Mock-praying?]

video;

[greatcherubim]

Don't be disgusting.

video;

[sympathyforme]

Just apprehensive. Should I have my camera ready?

voice;

[greatcherubim]

[sdjjh she's momentarily too flustered to respond, until she gets her bearings again.]

Absolutely not. Honestly. What is wrong with you? I had thought the Messiah might be able to teach you a little bit of compassion.

voice;

[sympathyforme]

Oh, I have plenty of compassion. I promise, I'll drape my body all over yours to cover your shame. If necessary.
