... For free. My, you certainly are generous.

[/sarcasm

And while he doesn't find the slipper particularly threatening, there's no harm in being helpful for once, right?]

As far as I remember, the first curse started around the end of February-so a few weeks after we first arrived here.

[atashikiitenai]

Why, yes, thank you. I am.

[Sarcasm no work on Aki-chan.]

A few weeks after you arrived? So you were one of the first ones here? What's your name?

[She scribbles stuff down in her sparkly pink detective notebook.]

And what was the first curse?

[aimforthesun]

[He rolls his eyes at the first comment, but drops it.]

Billy Iketani, and yeah, I think so. And it was... you couldn't lie? Or something like that.

[atashikiitenai]

[Writes down.]

So what was it like when you first arrived? Who was with you?

And what other curses can you remember?

[aimforthesun]

Some guy named Naoya and an annoying guy called Matthew. Can't remember anyone else from then that's still here.

[A pause]

Well, when did you arrive? That'd help narrow things down.

[atashikiitenai]

Naoya and Matthew, you say? I'll have to question them, too.

I arrived two months, nineteen days, and seven hours ago.

[aimforthesun]

... Couldn't you just have said August? Anyway, let's see...

There was one where our personalities were the complete opposite, another where we lost one of our senses...

[Another pause, as he thinks.]

Another where music kept playing around us, some camp thing, and another where people grew animal ears and tails.

[atashikiitenai]

I like to be exact.

[Write write write.]

Interesting. Very interesting. And does there seem to be a regular frequency to these curses, or do they seem to be random?

[aimforthesun]

They've always occurred every other week, from what I've seen.

[atashikiitenai]

Every other week, huh......so this week is the masquerade thing, before that was the [she shudders] body-switching...and then there was the zombies......we should make up a calendar and see if we can find a pattern.
