Quest 184

May 07, 2010 20:59

taking care of business, curse: rain rain go away, stronger now than yesterday, this place is weird beyond belief, post curse, rosella's journal, too many questions, the perils of being rosella, so farfetched it's gotta be true, bad memories, nineteen and loving it, absence makes the heart go yonder, curse: let them eat cake, i love my friends, doing nothing forever and ever, affected

Miss Rosella, it is a pleasure to hear from you again.

This rain does seem more preferable and natural as compared to the previous one. I believe I don't much mind it. Rain is frequent in England, and I should say I am... perhaps not fond of, but rather used to it.

[voice] primrosella May 8 2010, 16:58:32 UTC

Oh, hello, Riff! It's very nice to hear from you, too. And how are you today, may I ask?

It's a bit strange to see rain like this around here, I must say. With summer on the way, there's always the chance it might turn to snow, or something equally ridiculous.

[voice] tainted_loyalty May 9 2010, 03:38:20 UTC

I am doing well, thank you, miss.

[a soft laugh]

I should hope it's only something as ridiculous as snow and not quite so odd as cakes or--as Lord Cain suggested--ovens. I imagine that would be dreadful.

[voice] primrosella May 9 2010, 04:23:10 UTC

I ought to warn you, Riff, one of these days I intend to convince you to simply call me Rosella.

[And she's clearly amused by the thought, too.]

Oh, yes, raining ovens would be rather a mess, wouldn't it? I've heard it once rained cats and dogs before--real cats and real dogs, that is--but that was long before I ever came here, I think. I certainly don't remember it, myself.

[voice] tainted_loyalty May 9 2010, 04:27:06 UTC

My apologies, Miss Rosella, but I couldn't possibly.

Mm, yes. Lord Cain actually has a cat Miss Merry picked up on that day, named Kassandra. She's quite a dear, in fact.

[voice] primrosella May 9 2010, 04:33:41 UTC

Yes, and a clockwork one, too, if I recall correctly? I think I've heard tell of two of them before.

[voice] tainted_loyalty May 9 2010, 04:36:07 UTC

Yes, I have been told Noir is mechanical, though he really does seem real.

[voice] primrosella May 9 2010, 04:41:06 UTC

They make quite a fine pair, I'm sure. Well, except for the days when Cain finds himself a cat, as well--then they make a fine trio!

[voice] tainted_loyalty May 9 2010, 04:52:04 UTC

I wonder at that... I'm afraid it may be impolite to think so, but I find myself curious to see Lord Cain as a cat--so long as he returns to normal soon, of course.

[voice] primrosella May 9 2010, 04:55:15 UTC

Oh, it's not impolite at all, don't worry. We all do our fair share of wondering about how curses might affect ourselves and the people we know, after all. Really, I think it's only natural.

[voice] tainted_loyalty May 9 2010, 05:02:59 UTC

I suppose so...

{Which isn't to say, of course, that he doesn't love Cain just the way he is D: ]

[voice] primrosella May 9 2010, 05:04:56 UTC

Oh! But speaking of which, has anyone told you about the weekend of random curses yet?

[voice] tainted_loyalty May 9 2010, 05:07:13 UTC

No, I don't believe so, miss.

[voice] primrosella May 9 2010, 05:12:56 UTC

Well, normally the curses come every few days, all throughout the month, with a day or two of peace and quiet between them. It's rare to see two curses come one after the other, except for one weekend out of the month, which always seems to be that way. And while normally there's only one curse per day, on that weekend, it's as though everyone is struck with a different one, and there's no rhyme or reason to who ends up with what.

Still, it seems as though some curses occur more frequently than others on that weekend. Turning people into animals seems to be a popular one, and turning people into children is another. But there's all sorts of different curses that come up, and I've never been quite sure as to how or why.

[voice] tainted_loyalty May 9 2010, 05:16:38 UTC

[He listens patiently, then pauses to think about it]

...is it known which weekend this is so that one may attempt to prepare for it, or is it different each month?

[voice] primrosella May 9 2010, 05:20:45 UTC

It tends to change, I'm afraid. It's come early in the month before, and other times it's been the very last weekend of the month, so there's really no way of telling when it will be. But it always falls on a weekend, at least, and it's always over by Monday. I know that much.
