Case 218

[manofgnee]

Not gonna lie to you all. I'm bored.

Bored and suspicious. There's been a distinct lack of curses since the end of last month...and I'm very suspicious here.

They're planning something, aren't they...or am I just being paranoid? I dunno. I've been here too long, I think.

Ah well.

I'm gonna go and scrape up some information, see if I can figure out why there's a sudden lull in curses...anybody in?

Nah, it's not just you. It's weird for things to be normal for so long.

Wait—does that make the curses normal for us now?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I think so...or, for us who've been here a while, curses are normal, I guess.

You just get used to expecting something bizarre to happen, I think.

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

I'm starting to think so, yeah. Not sure what to think about that.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I dunno...but the lull in curses when we usually get a couple a week...it makes me suspicious.

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

At least we can get ready for them now.

...never mind, there's no being ready for them.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, we can be prepared mentally for when they hit, right?

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

As long as they don't do something to our minds. Again.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

They better not.

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

I hate those the most.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

They're the worst...

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

I've had enough of people messing with my head. No one...no one should ever have to wonder if what they remember is real.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...yeah...

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

Oh, geez, I shouldn't be so negative. We don't even know if there will be bad curses soon.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

You're right. Positive thinking, we should try it.

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

I will.

You know, it feels like forever since I've talked to you.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know...I guess we've both been busy, huh...

How've you been, Roxas?

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

It's my fault. Things got kind of complicated and...it's been longer for me, because I went home for a while.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

You went home?

Uh...how was that...?

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

Strange. A lot of stuff happened. My whole life changed.

You were right, you know.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I was? Uh, about what?

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

I do have a heart. Besides the one you gave me, I mean.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Resisting the urge to say 'AHA! I KNEW IT!']

Really? Dude, that's awesome!

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I'm not supposed to, really. But I guess I ended up being a special case.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I told you, man!

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

Yeah, yeah, enjoy being right while you can.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I know, I know...it never happens, right?

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

Oh, hallo!

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Hello there, Piglett. Trust me, you don't wanna go to ze underground.]

Hello yourself!

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

I was thinking... that in-instead of scraping... m-maybe you'd rather do something not so scraping such as a good game of Pooh sticks?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Having read Winnie the Pooh as a kid, he actually knows what that is.]

You know what? That's actually a much better idea. I'd love to play Pooh sticks.

[verysmallpig.livejournal.com]

R-really?

[Piglet seems a bit startled, not being Used to having 'Much Better Ideas'.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Yeah, really!
