[A split second of silence, then a loud splash, followed by more splashing--]
Fucking Christ!
[Coughing, sputtering--]
I knew the bloody deities had got something in store for me when I tried that, but this is just uncalled for. Not even very creative, either.
[More splashing, then:]
Bugger. One of these things again. Thought I'd got rid of it. Ah, I s'pose it's got its uses right now, eh?
Anyone there? Feel like rescuing a bloke from drowning?
Don't worry. Nothing more ought to be coming after you, at this point.
[OOC: John returns! (For the record, he activated a spell he'd left inside the clock, which the deities had altered so that it dumped him out in the middle of the ocean.) Psychics and other "sensitives" will notice that a couple seconds after his post starts, some kind of nasty backlash ripples through the City; if it's IC for them, they can also start having nightmares. All other effects will not show up for a few more days. See this post for more details.]
