Case 124

[manofgnee]

...You know, I just remembered something...

My birthday is this month. I think it's the 25th...that sounds about right, yeah. Gah, that is so weird...see, I always sort of forget my birthday cuz there's always too much other stuff going on at home. Work and stuff.

And I guess I have work here too...probably more work, actually. But...well, I guess this is supposed to be that 'special' birthday. The one where you turn the age of your birthday day. Heh. 25 on the 25th. Wow. Never thought I'd make it that far.

So...er...yeah. I remembered when my birthday is. Sam made me promise to tell people when I remembered, so I did. Happy now, Sam? When you get back from your personal vacation, I still have some sodas with your name on them, by the way.

Okay, onto more relevant questions!

Has anybody managed to figure out where to get rid of those evil indigos? I found one...but I didn't really notice anything right away. I mean, it started off little, and that was all stuff I did anyway due to my own personal fail or clumsiness...tripping, dropping stuff, breaking things...yeah, that could've been me being clumsy, so I didn't catch on right away.

Yeah, but then yesterday I fell down some stairs, got a black eye after tripping and falling on a rock, drank bad milk which shouldn't have been bad since I bought it that day...tons of the plants at the shop got sick, and Lassie decided she didn't like me again so she decided to shred all my clothes up...my wallet got stolen, EXCEPT for the stupid evil coin...

And I got this weird feeling that it's gonna get worse...so I gotta get rid of that stupid coin, but nobody will take it! I don't know what to do, and I'd like to stop this before I fall down a manhole and break my neck, or get eaten by unexpected land sharks or something.

Jeez, and I thought that November wouldn't be as bad as October...

--All above and below, Hanna...

[pause...how to combat all this bad]

..Then we should have a party. A true, wild thing!

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

What can I say, I'm a bad luck magnet...

...A party? Really? Geez, I haven't had one of those in...at least 4 years...

[10shlling6pence.livejournal.com]

Then I daresay you're well overdue, Hanna! It's settled, we'll have a proper party for you. It's a very special one indeed--though, I imagine any birthday would be just as special.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Hee, you really think so?

[child-radical.livejournal.com]

Put it in a box of cereal belonging to somebody you loathe and watch them rejoice only to quickly scream in despair at all the bad luck that they're attracting.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...But I don't really hate anybody here...

[child-radical.livejournal.com]

Mildly annoyed with?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

That I could maybe do.

[child-radical.livejournal.com]

Good luck with that route then.

Hanna... [She was ready to be all excited about his birthday even with everything she's been thinking about or trying not to think about the last couple of days, but the last part worries her.]

That sounds awful. I had no idea it was still affecting people. Could you just bury it somewhere?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I tried that, but it didn't work...

[deadly_legacy]

...But there must be some way. [She doesn't want you getting hurt!]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

There is...I just haven't figured it out yet.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's my month too.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Aww, happy birthday to you then!!

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, doesn't really need to go any farther than this. But I hope you have a great day.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Honestly, I wasn't planning on doing anything. I just remembered it was this month, that's all.

Your birthday falls right on Thanksgiving! You get a big feast with a birthday cake and presents. Now that is what I call awesome.

[hatedbyfanboys.livejournal.com]

I.. uh.. hope you're doing alright though. That sounds pretty bad, what happened during that curse...

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I'm doing okay, man...don't worry, the bad luck's gotta wear off eventually, right?

And thanks! I think that's why I always forget my birthday...cuz of thanksgiving.

[hatedbyfanboys.livejournal.com]

Mine doesn't seem to. Yeah...

But how could you forget? I'd be excited for that big meal.

[freckleddoll]

Cor, that's really soon!

...but think we'd better sort out that trouble you're 'avin' first.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I know, I can't believe I forgot it again!

I'll figure it out eventually...just gotta continue experimenting with how to get rid of this thing and have it stay gone.

[freckleddoll]

Should 'ave a party for it, ye know, 'specially if this one is a special one!

Throwin' it away don't work?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Gee, I haven't had a birthday party in ages...haven't really done anything for my birthday in ages...or thanksgivng...

You don't have to do anything, really...


I tried that, and after I did, I tripped and fell in mud. No change.
