Case 191

[manofgnee]

Well, that was a...weird week. Sort of cool, though. All those different places...wonder what happens to all the scavenger hunt stuff. Probably something weird, dunno...oh well.

What better way to top off a weird week than with the visitors curse! Greetings, visitors! Don't worry, this is probably temporary. Don't touch anything suspicious looking and don't go Underground, you'll be fiiine.

Hey, Worth! Lamont! Conrad, Veser, Toni, Jacques, if you guys are here, come say hi! It'd be really good to see you all again.

"Don't touch" and "Don't go," huh? Sounds like an invitation to me.

[If only he could find George. They'd be all over this "Underground."]

HOLY CRAP ITS FRED.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, what can I say?

I like how you think. Sounds like me, actually. I just say that because it's sort of an obligation. I'm Hanna.

The one and only. :D

Fred Weasley. Entepreneur of all things devious and dastardly. I reckon this Underground is in dire need of some venturing, aye?

*LOVE AND ADORATION*

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Devious and dastardly, very nice!

Oh, you would be correct sir! They have some really neat stuff down there, including the world's most messed up circus! And that's saying something.

[Look, a bespectacled redhead, like you! Only this one's of the female variety. She's grinning ecstatically at you!]

Ohmigosh! Hanna! You're Hanna!

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[And he is dumbfounded but he can't help but grin.]

Hee, yes I am!

[jeilovesyou.livejournal.com]

Hi!

[You get enthusiastic two-handed waving now.]

My name's Jami Jo! You can call me Jei if you want, though. I totally love you!

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Y-you do? Wha--really?

[Stunned. Just...just stunned.]

Hi, Jei...Nice to meet you.

[skeezier.livejournal.com]

Better be in one piece this time, 'cos I ain't fixin' yer pasty ass again.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I am, I promise! No ghosts or demons or anything this time! You can even check if you don't believe me, and you probably don't.

[venomouselle.livejournal.com]

I thought I was done here.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Sorry...just when you think you're out, they drag you back in.

Hanna! I don't know if I should be happy you're still here--I mean, I am, because I wouldn't get to talk to you if you weren't--or bummed because you're still not home! How're the dogs doing? They're all grown, right? And the sheep?

[pause for breath]

...And this is Penny. Sorry. Hi! That's how I should've started.

[audio]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Penny! Oh, it's great to see you again, how have you been? We all miss you here!

I mean, being here is a mixed blessing, as you know. The dogs are doing really well, and so are the sheep. I bet they'd love to say hi to you!

[audio]

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

I've been great! Busy, but being dead isn't nearly as bad as people make it out to be. I do miss you guys, though!

I hear the blessings have been extra-mixed lately. Visiting worlds, zombies, harpies...? That sounds wild. In a bad way. Oh, but the sheep! I'd love to see them--and you, of course, if you're not too busy being mobbed by visitors.

[audio]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I figured it wouldn't be too bad. See, my best friend is technically dead, and it really hadn't affected his ability to enjoy life.

It was wild! Good and bad, yeah, but exciting.

I haven't been mobbed yet, and I think you take priority. The sheep miss you.

What exactly is supposed to be in this 'underground'?

I have been to a fair number of undergrounds in my day, and I'm not sure what the hullabaloo is all about.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

All manner of beasties and bizarre troublesome things. Also, I think the train may be possessed...or it was at some point, anyway.

[stilluphere.livejournal.com]

Beasties and bizarre, you say.

What's a train, and why would anyone go about bothering to possess it?

[bakurakrazie.livejournal.com]

Hanna!

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Oh, hey!!

[bakurakrazie.livejournal.com]

How's it going? Enjoying today like usual?

[borntofollowyou.livejournal.com]

[He heard his name and looks rather confused.]

Yes? I'm sorry have we met before?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...Let me guess. You're a guy named Conrad, right? Unless you're a graphic designer artist vampire with neurosis and glasses, I don't think we've met.

[borntofollowyou.livejournal.com]

That's correct. And ah, a simple misunderstanding then. My apologies. Unfortunately, I don't possess any such skills.
