<juno> i like how all of junos messages so far are from makoto

[junosteel]

makoto, i have no idea what half of these words mean. what the hell is halloween? or trick-or-treating? and why the hell was that kid going to people's houses for candy, isn't it dangerous to accept free food from strangers?

let me know the answers to my questions as soon as possible. also tell me whether or not you've broken this curse. i can't get any more cursed than i am right now.

[Guess who's never heard of spam mail.]

<makonyan> i do too

[princeproblems]

halloween is a scary holiday.
and trick-or-treating is where you ask for candy.
that's why he's going to houses.
it's supposed to be okay on halloween!!!!!!!

please don't just wait for me, i don't want you to be cursed more.

<juno>

[junosteel]

i thought the purpose of holidays was to relax, and being scared seems to be the opposite of that, but alright?

[Man, Ryslig is weird.]

can i get like, a bargain half-off curse i send it to only five? or like one? how about one?

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

well.
i don't like it.

i don't think you can negotiate with curses.

<juno>

[junosteel]

watch me.

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

what if you get stuck as a monster the rest of your life because you got cursed more while trying to negotiate??

<juno>

[junosteel]

well, i guess i'll just have to get used to having fur. aren't were-creatures supposed to be cursed, anyways? maybe the curses will cancel each other out. it's math.

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

curses never work like that.
did curses not exist on mars?

<juno>

[junosteel]

i mean the last time someone told me i was cursed it actually was just someone who was trying to make me play right into their hands regarding the murder of a tv executive. long story.
funny how life works out like that. so excuse me if i don't hold too much stock in curses and boogeymen and whatever else

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

oh.
that's fair.
i kind of believed in that kind of stuff back home, but this place is so weird that i don't want to take a chance.

<juno>

[junosteel]

well, let me know if you start growing extra eyes or hearing screams of the damned or whatever happens when you get cursed. i'll be here.

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

does that mean you know how to break curses?

<juno>

[junosteel]

i'm a detective, not an exorcist. i just wanna know just in case i start sprouting extra limbs, too.

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

now i'm not gonna tell you.
you can just sprout limbs and be surprised about it.

<juno>

[junosteel]

ouch. i'm hurt.

<makonyan>

[princeproblems]

it'll be okay.
you can be a raccoon with five million arms.
