Before any of these disastrous curses that I've been hearing so much about hit, I really ought to find a job.

[The text that follows is one part job application, one part test of the deities' reactions, and one part terrible joke. Enjoy.]I worked for the British Foreign Ministry in my world--that means I'm a diplomat. I'm not terribly sure how to

'Disastrous curses' sounds so scary.

[icingkills]

I'm not frightened.

Are you new too?

[existais]

Mm- it's not so bad knowing there are other new people with me.

[icingkills]

Actually, it's been nothing but pleasant for me so far.

It's... a pretty ambitious project! Now you put it like that. Do let me know if you have any luck so I can start worrying big time.

[icingkills]

You'll probably find out if I do.

[soulofocean]

It'd be one HUGE step forward when it comes to deities-citizens relations, no doubt about that...

[spiritofsorrow]

Did you? Curious. What year are you from, if I might ask?

[icingkills]

I did. [Have a random year early in the twenty-first century, his canon isn't specific about dates.]

[spiritofsorrow]

I see. Ah, well, not from my era. I am from 1962, in the Soviet Union.

[icingkills]

No, that was quite some time ago. We're not enemies anymore, no more than everyone is.

[citadelspirit]

You're going to speak well for those blasphemers, despite all that they do to us?

[icingkills]

No one's sure if they're behind the curses or not, are they?

[citadelspirit]

Whether they are or not, they rejoice in our suffering when the curses come.

[icingkills]

Maybe they need someone to remind them not to do that.

[justasystem]

A public relations office?

... I think that would be wonderful, if it really worked.

[icingkills]

I'll do my best.

[justasystem]

I've spoken with the deities before...

It's not- I mean. It's not unheard of for them to listen to us, so.

[icingkills]

I've heard of trades, but not of listening to us.

What are they like?
