Electricity? So what? We lose electricity every other week when Blob forgets that the circuit box is not to be tampered with (or eaten), or Lance takes down all the telephone poles in the area.
It's what I do. Like a special ability, I guess. I've got the mutant X-gene, and when people have this gene they develop an ability. Well, not always, I guess. Sometimes they have a latent gene that needs to be unlocked.
My father's a lot more interested in it than me. God, I hope he doesn't show up here. Or maybe if he was to show up, and I was able to leave.
Oh. So is that what makes your hair do that, or is that intentional?
The curses are inflicted on us by the PTBs of the City. They're these crazy deities that like to fuck with us, I guess. I think they feed on it somehow. It's usually something really annoying, and they usually hit most of the city at once, except for a couple people that turn out immune every time.
The other day, everyone in the city lost one of the five senses. I went deaf. It sucked, and it's always like that. You're better off trying to get the hell out of here as soon as you can.
Right. Do you actually own a mirror, or do people just tell you you look good, and then laugh when you're out of earshot?
They're deities. Take my word for it.
Nobody's always immune. Most curses only last a day, but they can have lasting consequences. They always, always suck.
Most people get here different ways. Some get here from a dream, some just wake up here. Some people die and come here, instead of Hell. Unless this place is Hell.
Either way, don't die here. If you die here, you can't ever leave. My coworker just died, and now she's stuck here for good. I really, really hate this place, but at least it's not Ohio.
I had one, but I didn't realize I would be taking a cross-dimensional trip, so I didn't think to pack it. And all the ladies back home love my hair.
Well, I'll see about the deities.
Lasting consequences? Oh, yeah, I suppose if you lost your sight and fell, your bruises wouldn't heal. Or would they? And I'll see if they suck when one happens...
Well, I was awake. I was running, and I'm fairly certain I wasn't dead. As to this place being Hell, that'll be determined upon whether or not there's any Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream to be had.
And for me to die, people would have to catch me. I wish them luck.
Hi. Who're you?

So what's up with these curses anyway?

Deities? Come on, no one believes in gods anymore! They're probably just mutants with a lot of juice... probably.
I'll probably be immune. To lose a sense... hmm... I don't think I'd like that, but you got it back so it can't be that bad.
And I'm working on getting out of here... If I could just figure out how I got here in the first place, I might be able to do it...
