[There is a lot of rustling background noise, and when the camera turns on, it's slightly dark. Merry is huddled under her covers, smiling even though she looks a little tired. Two curses in one week can take a lot out of a little girl. She is staying in bed for the day, thank you very much.]I liked that last curse. I've always had private tutors,

It was one of those weekends where there were a lot of different kind of curses.

[ms_marycontrary]

Oh, I see. I guess I was just wondering what curse I was under, exactly.

[misterblackbird]

I suppose there are some ladies' organisations, though they aren't really the same as clubs, as far as that goes. So perhaps it isn't as much alike as I'd first thought. At least you managed to enjoy a curse--that's not a common thing at all.

Anyway, it was a peculiar weekend this past one, when everything goes mad for two days. So in that much chaos, it's no wonder you don't remember anything.

[ms_marycontrary]

Yes, exactly. I think there ought to be more women's clubs would help people like Aunt Katina loosen up a little. Fussy old biddy.

Hmm, do you remember what happened to me, Cain?

[misterblackbird]

It would do her good to have something more to do.

I do, yes, but it was all a bit complicated.

[ms_marycontrary]

I'm glad you think so too. She needs something else to do other than to nag at me.

Complicated? What do you mean?

Ahem, Miss Merryweather - you're looking most exquisite today. That air of absolute calm is certainly a compliment to your natural beauty.

May I have a moment?

[ms_marycontrary]

Thank you~

Of course. What's on your mind?

Well, I was wondering whether you'd set down any of the masquerade specifics: when would you like to have it, how many people are you thinking of inviting, would you like to hold it anywhere particular, and is there some kind of theme?

I had originally planned it to be a summer masquerade, but so many things happened that I wasn't able to get it done by summer. So I think I'd like it to be sometime in September. I want the ball to be open to everyone in the City-- only if they RSVP, of course-- and I want it to be open air.

But um...other than the masquerade theme, do you think an autumn theme would be alright? Or should there be something else?

[primrosella]

There was, yes. It was one of the random weekends, last weekend, though I don't remember much of it, either.

I'm glad you had fun with the last curse, Merry.

[ms_marycontrary]

You don't remember much either, Rosella? All I remember is that I felt odd...

Me too! Did you have fun, Rosella?

[primrosella]

Well, I remember spending it as a little girl, and looking around for--someone I thought I'd lost. But my memory is a bit patchy, otherwise.

Oh, it was all right. I think I acted a bit silly, though, since I wasn't myself at all.

[ms_marycontrary]

My memory is too. I barely remember anything.

You weren't? I don't think I saw you...which school were you at?

[witheringlily]

It was definitely a strange weekend. I think some people showed parts of their pasts they would rather have kept secret.

[ms_marycontrary]

What do you mean, Miss Uni?

[witheringlily]

I don't know how to explain...It was like looking into the memories of others.

[ms_marycontrary]

How awful...those things should be kept private. Did that happen to you?
