fourth lie.

The day is almost over, and I still can't remember what I did yesterday.

Someone fill me in before I decide that burning down the gardens would make a much more interesting new memory.

[OOC: And Azula's refusal to do any of the deity decrees last month finally kicks in. Right after she spent a day harassing and intimidating virtuous young maidens

I suspect that when people find themselves unable to remember what happened during a curse it is usually for the better.

[fearmemore]

So you like not knowing what you did yesterday.

[i_themagician]

I never said that! Rather, it could have been you who I saw involved in various loud and public altercations with other young women, and, not knowing you, I might think it wise not to burden you with such information.

[fearmemore]

I'm sure they deserved it.

[i_themagician]

It appears that I was mistaken in my assumptions, then.

Along those same lines, perhaps someone came along and erased your memories of it because they believed you to deserve it.

[fearmemore]

In that case, I'll just have to find them and show them what they deserve.

[i_themagician]

Good luck with that. Logically speaking, it seems unlikely that you'll get very far.

[fearmemore]

It was really more a figure of speech than anything. I doubt someone came along and erased my memories as some sort of punishment anyway.

More likely the deities did it for their amusement. That's another problem entirely.

[i_themagician]

I'm more inclined to think that it's both, personally, but you are of course otherwise right. Deity involvement does make it a bit more complicated and less prone to being solved by way of arson.

[fearmemore]

I'd admire their ability to avoid any consequences for what they do to us, I wasn't one of the people they were doing it to.

[i_themagician]

I don't think it's admirable regardless. There's nothing very interesting about being so powerful as to be beyond question.

[fearmemore]

You don't think so? I can't think of anything better.

[i_themagician]

Well, I might be more impressed if they had manipulated public opinion such that no one wanted to question them.

[fearmemore]

What's the point of being untouchable and in power if you don't get to see people fearing you?

[i_themagician]

If you want to do things the easy way, I suppose there isn't one. However, I'd hardly consider that worthy of admiration.

[fearmemore]

Good thing I don't care if anyone admires me or not. They should, of course, but so long as they fear me it doesn't really matter.
