∞ 75: Dragobete [accidental voice]

Feb 24, 2010 10:53

[Like many others on this day, Albert is inspecting the fountain and surrounding area that has changed overnight. He has tried to talk to the birds, who are too busy twittering and cuddling to be bothered. And now he is looking at the fountain itself, reading aloud the inscription on it.]

"Dragobete." ...Well, if there was any doubt before, there ( Read more... )

valentine's day experiment, ⁑ginko, valentine's day but actually dragobete

[Oh. This voice. You're smart, you explain it to him...]

"Dragobete"-- what does that mean?

[Voice] chikaidestroyer February 24 2010, 19:13:44 UTC

[There's a pause before Albert replies.]

I do not know; it isn't a term I am familiar with. But it certainly seems to be referring to whatever is going on out here.

You've been around to see a lot of these-- does this look like another experiment to you?

[Voice] chikaidestroyer February 24 2010, 19:28:23 UTC

It does. In some ways, it resembles the experiment people have associated with "Valentine's Day." It was perhaps a foolish thought to associate the experiment solely to a holiday -- much like "Halloween" and "Christmas."

[Voice] one_green_eye February 24 2010, 19:33:00 UTC

I'm afraid neither of those are familiar words-- but I get the idea.

But once again, it doesn't seem like anything but a sick sense of humor on the Malnosso's part. [his voice darkens] Trivial as it all looks, this has the potential to damage a lot of people's happiness.

It certainly does. Most are quite resilient to brushing off the effects of these kinds of experiments, though. It will just take longer.

[Voice] one_green_eye February 24 2010, 19:54:15 UTC

Mm. [he wonders.]

Does the wine look dangerous-- or like something intended to augment the effects?

[Voice] chikaidestroyer February 24 2010, 20:00:24 UTC

It looks like the entire square was "refurnished" for whatever experiment this is. I have not yet noticed anyone under ill effects after drinking the wine, so it could be purely decoration.

But they are also offering the wine to drink, which isn't very subtle.

[Voice] one_green_eye February 24 2010, 20:31:35 UTC

Not a bit subtle.

....Which means everyone is going to be drinking it, I guess.

[Voice] chikaidestroyer February 25 2010, 00:09:38 UTC

Until someone shows ill effects, I'm sure.
