MERLIN!!! HE'S FOUND ME!!!

He found me and now he's punishing me for failing. Oh, Merlin, make it stop! Make it stop, someone, anyone, please!

I can feel them eating my flesh... Please, isn't there anyone who can help?

Professor Snape! Save me! I need somewhere to hide, somewhere beyond his reach. Can't you make a potion that will stop this?

It's crazy spell shit happenin....do what Delirium did and use your magic to try turnin the maggots into something pretty so you can fuckin handle what's going on.

[paleslytherin]

I-I-I can't hold my wand with that hand, it's rotting too much! Wait, hmm, pretty...

Aaaaaahhhh! I don't think that helped!

{{He tried transfiguring one of the maggots into a snake, and so now he's got something pretty but poisonous following him... DX}}

[ever_evey]

It'll be over tomorrow.

Close your eyes and think of something else.

...They've gotten past my wrists.

I can see them again. Oh--I feel ill.

[paleslytherin]

Tomorrow? How do you know? If it's a spell from him, then he won't end it until he's ready. I know it was wrong of me to not do what he wanted, but... I couldn't... I just... froze.

That won't help me. I can still feel them, even when my eyes are closed. They're eating me from the inside.

Oh, umm... it's been brought to my attention that I owe you an apology. So, I'm sorry. And thank you for trying to help...

Maybe if you try wearing long sleeves, if you just don't want to see them? You can try drowning them by sticking your hands in water, but you'll have to pull them off your skin. Something I can't quite manage.

[ever_evey]

It's a curse--just a curse. I can feel them, too, and it's horrible utterly horrible and I just want it to stop already, but we're going to have to deal with it. It won't last much longer.

Apology accepted. If you need help in the future, feel free to ask.

Thank you for the suggestion. I'm covered top to toe right now. They've spread all over--through--my body.

[captain_hector]

Whiney little twit-of-a-lad, ain' yeh?

Go ten years with it, boy, then complain.

[paleslytherin]

Ten years? I may not have a choice...

The maggots feel really odd crawling through my body, I don't think that's something I can get used to. I know I don't want to get used to it.

[riteofmaldoran]

Its only a curse. It'll be gone by midnight.

[paleslytherin]

But that's too long from now! It hurts!! They're eating my insides!

[riteofmaldoran]

There isn't much to be done about that, though, is there? Try focusing on something else. The more you think about it, the worse it will be.

[paleslytherin]

It's really hard to focus on something else when you've got insects crawling through your insides! At least I was able to kill that snake I accidently made.

Calm down, Draco. This is not the doing of the Death Eaters... bloody fucking hell... it is merely a City curse. I don't ave anything I can give you... Merlin's Hairy Balls! for the pain. My stores are depleted and... Oh, that is just vile... these blasted maggots keep falling into everything I attempt to brew.

I shall come and see what can be done to make you more comfortable.

[paleslytherin]

How do you know? You know he would do this to us if he could, and he wouldn't care who else he hit, either. How can you know that he's not doing this?

Merlin, what about Mother and Father? What's he doing to them? I should'a just done it...

{{ooc: strike hackable to Snape.}}

[snape_1960_1_9]

You are correct- if it were possible He would indeed inflict what ever punishment upon us as He saw fit. However, it is not possible for him to reach this world with out first coming here, and I asure you, if the Dark Lord were to arrive in this City, I would be the first to know.

Nothing has been done to your mother, Draco. She is much too valuble to His cause. Your Father, being in Askaban, is of little or no use to the Dark Lord. I doubt he would waste even a thought on Lucius at this point.

Do not, I repeat, do not even think such things.

[ooc: strike = hackible to Draco and anyone else who tries hard enough.]

Private to Snape

[paleslytherin]

He really can't reach us here?

My mother is valuable to His cause? I never got the impression that she did much more than attend the meetings every so often.

He might be tormenting Father for fun, just because Father can't fight him.

I'll try not.
