Let's get one thing straight: I'm forgetting these curses ever happened, got it? You all should do the same!

[What Rita has failed to notice--but what's pretty obvious to anyone who looks thanks to the green tank top she's wearing--are two or three small fading bruises on the sides of her neck. The genius mage still has some hickeys as a souvenir ( Read more... )

[And here is standing Rita...who doesn't look or even sound particularly different than usual. However, the genius mage is very much male today. And as far as he's concerned, he always has been.]

I hate you and your curses, City.

[He scowls at a blown-up wall in the house. Some of the debris is still lying around ( Read more... )

So Estelle's really...gone for good.

::private to Tyr::

Hey, tell me what happened. You did it, right?

[Here is one genius mage, seated at a table with books and tools strewn everywhere as always. In her hands is a shiny object that could be mistaken for a thick bracelet, if not for the intermittent light emitted by the inset gem and the holographic console above it. Rita taps several symbols on the console, and the gem pulses weakly before fading ( Read more... )

[The transmission quality is iffy at best but among some static is the sound of a startled cry drowned out by a splash. A few muttered words, unintelligible over the poor connection, then a very, very long period of silence follows.]

...Wha...W-What--WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?

[Rita reaches an impressively high pitch with that shriek, even with the ( Read more... )

[Why a stack of books doesn't make a good stepladder is demonstrated pretty well when the stack wobbles, Rita slips, and everything crashes to the floor. Several books go with her, and she mutters some choice words. Particularly when one falls right on her head ( Read more... )

...Those random curse weekends moved closer to the beginning of the month the past few times. Meaning it's most likely coming up-

So is it normal for certain ones to repeat all the time? It seems to me like some people get stuck with the same ones over and over again. Not that it's impossible if they actually are random, but...It's just the lamer ( Read more... )

Okay, there's seriously too much junk around here. We don't need any of this stuff, so I'll sell it to anyone who asks.

["Junk" is pretty accurate. Rita's gathered a pile of mostly-useless items, from broken glassware to used post-it notes, a human skull and an old coin, and more. Some Most of it probably isn't even hers.]

Oh, this thing--

[At ( Read more... )

--orgot about these...When did they arrive?

[With an open box in front of her, Rita is holding...a human skull. One of her hands pokes around the contents of the box for a moment.]

Three, huh? I guess that's supposed to be generous.

[Obviously, she's muttering to herself with no clue about the video. She's too interested in the skull; when the ( Read more... )

I don't even need to ask who left that in the fridge. Seriously, I've never seen anything that gross in my life! Eat your own damn leftovers next time before I blast them! And there's no way I'm cleaning this up--

Wait, is that...My curse token?! How the hell did this thing...

...Ugh. I don't even want it anymore.
