[ The morning promised to be a normal one. His alarm clock went off at 9 as always and he got up, went to get ready to prepare breakfast... when he realized the

[After getting himself settled in his new living quarters, Bartz decided to get some food for his kitchen. He left his bedroom and entered his living room to see a guy staggering around.]

Hey! Are you alright?!

[Rushes over to help him out.]

[xlillackeykitty]

[ He's wobbly but he's okay. Shaking his head a bit to clear his vision, he looks back up at Bartz, nodding.

Drat this curse. ]

[chocobo_bartz]

[Sighs and looks at Luka, confused.]

How did you even get in here in the first place?

[xlillackeykitty]

[ A shrug. Then he looks around a bit and points to the wall, stopping to emphasize that a moment before doing his little "I disappear into a puddle of darkness and scurry around then pop back up" routine.

But the look on the creature's face is apologetic to say the least. ]

[chocobo_bartz]

...Well, anyway, I was gonna go get something to eat. Do you want to come?

[Bartz sheepishly smiles and rubs the back of his head. This was a weird way to start the day...]

[xlillackeykitty]

[ ...

And he points to his face. Can't... exactly eat without a mouth dude but thanks anyway. ]

[chocobo_bartz]

[Sorry, Luka. He's a bit slow.]

...You mean you don't have a mouth? I guess it must be a part of the curse, then. Sorry, man.

[xlillackeykitty]

[ One dismissive hand gesture. Nah. It's all cool. He doesn't really feel hunger but there IS this weird... craving sensation for something that isn't food.

One notepad pulled out and scribbled on is held up to Bartz. ]

Stuff like this happens. It just gets weird around here. Sorry I accidentally broke in.

[chocobo_bartz]

[Reads the note that Luka just wrote.]

Nah, it's no problem. I was just getting settled in. It's not everyday when you get summoned to an underwater city just to prevent it from being flooded in.

[xlillackeykitty]

That's true. Guess you just came in?

[ He makes himself comfy. At least a food conversation's coming out of it. Kinda comforting when you lost your form. ]

[chocobo_bartz]

Yeah. I just arrived here. This place doesn't seem to be half bad. You get a place to sleep, a roof above your head, and there's free food.

[Bartz still wonders about what kind of secrets this place has...]

[xlillackeykitty]

You just have to put up with stuff like this for a week though. I don't normally look like this.

[ A slump of the shoulders as he pulls himself up. ]

[chocobo_bartz]

I can see that. Does the curse happen upon just certain people or what?

[Blinks in confusion.]

[xlillackeykitty]

Happens when you don't touch the coral every so often. You'll be feeling the need to in a few days.

[chocobo_bartz]

I'll be sure to do that when I get cursed, then.
