014: [Phonecall/Action] Isn't something missing?

[She realized something when she woke up today: yesterday was her birthday. Birthdays were never something she'd really had a big thing about. Her mother would always make sure she had cake and presents, and sometimes they'd invite friends over, but as she got older it was less and less of a thing. She'd only remembered her birthday while she was

Yeah, that could be fun.

[dimensioncannon]

That's what I'm hoping.

Y'know, last summer they actually locked the teenagers in their cars together at the drive-in. It was really weird! We just kinda woke up there already in the cars and with someone else there with us. I got lucky because I was paired up with a friend, but I heard some other people were trapped with people they'd never even met before.

[dimensioncannon]

Yeah? That's...[She trails off for a moment.] S'pose I can't say it's weird coming from this town.

[thief_of_truth]

Stuff like that happens all the time. We're probably due for something else soon, too. Oh yeah! Mother's Day is coming up, right?

[dimensioncannon]

What, d'you think she'll do something for that? Make us all...wear aprons or something?

[thief_of_truth]

Actually, last year it just meant that all the girls in town could order around all the guys for a day and they couldn't refuse the commands.

[dimensioncannon]

...D'you know I can't decide if that's terrible or not?

[thief_of_truth]

But then the opposite thing happens on Father's Day, so you have to be careful.

Missed this notif, ugh.

[dimensioncannon]

...I've decided. Definitely terrible.

[thief_of_truth]

Yeah, this town has a really weird sense of humor sometimes.

[dimensioncannon]

I'd say it's got a terrible one.

[thief_of_truth]

Well, at least that kind of stuff usually doesn't get people killed.

[dimensioncannon]

Generally, yeah. S'pose it could, though.

[thief_of_truth]

All depends on how people decide to use that power.

[dimensioncannon]

Some people can be very creative.
