Fast, thorough, and sharp as a tack

Ah...I know that it is hardly necessary to apologize for one's activities while cursed but

*falls over laughing*

Sorry I missed it~!

[yeshua_aeon]

You weren't all that bad yesterday, I don't think. :)

[dubia_lux]

You do not think so?

[yeshua_aeon]

Not compared to some others.

[dubia_lux]

I am glad to hear you say that, chaos.

...there was a moment where you seemed like you had beaten it, but... well, it was not to be, at that time...

I am almost ashamed to say I had no resistance against it at all. It took me rather, ah... strongly.

[dubia_lux]

I study the curses and the City itself intently. Nobody truly has resistance to them, some are simply more likely to succumb.

Since I've been studying them for so long, I can recognize the signs and symptoms in myself and reason my way into a more stable position. Ah...Sometimes by doing this I can "beat" the curse, sometimes not. Often, if I am too far gone, I need someone to point it out to me. Yesterday my mental faculties were directly affected. My intellect, not only my sanity. So I suppose self-awareness was, as you say, not to be.

[silk_in_ebony]

Hmm... I see. That's something worth remembering, and I thank you. Perhaps it won't help now, but maybe in the future, when I have experienced them more deeply. I might not be able to match your intellect, but I could certainly learn to see the signs in myself... maybe. And perhaps stop myself from, ah, what was it? 'Drawing the flock to myself' again.

[dubia_lux]

It is not a common ability. I think Riou is the only other one who's been able to do it and we both study the curses very deeply. It takes a lot of focus and willpower to fight the fog once the signs are recognized and it is time consuming to learn what exactly those signs are.

For nearly six months now, I have been studying curses. And I am still far from able to truly resist them.

[pitfallen]

This is definitely one of the curses I wish I didn't remember.....

I learned way more than I ever wanted to know yesterday....

[dubia_lux]

Ah? Oh...yes...

I cleaned up, do not worry.

[pitfallen]

.............. R-Right. I'd........ Rather just not talk about it.

[dubia_lux]

Of course.
