...this is certainly an interesting curse. Glowing won't impede me from my duties, however. The light is not bright enough to affect my sight.

I wonder exactly how this curse works? Certainly the people of the City seem to have been affected in very different ways.

[ooc: Akechi translates to 'sagacious' - 'acutely insightful and wise.' Mitsu

[When Megumi awakens, she is surprised to find that her movement is limited--opening her eyes, she is surprised to find herself cocooned in delicate, ocean blue paper that looks like gift wrap, with pale white ribbons of silk loosely but neatly tied bowed about her. On the bow upon her chest is a card.]

Mitsuhide?

[But more surprising than her own condition is her husband's, who seems to be glowing!]

Anata--!

[He had seen her gift-wrapping already and arches an eyebrow when she talks to him.]

This is an odd curse, isn't it?

[He looks down at himself, then back at her.]

I wonder what it is based on, love...

[foxy_physician]

[She looks down upon herself, thinking a moment, her brows knit in concentration.]

Well, love . . . I look like a gift . . . and considering my name . . .

And you're glowing . . . and considering your name . . .

[She looks up at Mitsuhide with amusement.]

It's probably based on our names!

[A peal of laughter.]

Mitsuhide, love, I'm your gift!

[A little wiggle, and a wink.]

Won't you open me, my love~? ♥

[silk_in_ebony]

A curse based on our names? It would make sense.

[He gives her a soft smile.]

Well, being wrapped up must be inconvenient for you, hmm?

[He does as asked, taking away the ribbon and removing the layers of wrapping paper slowly.]

Is that better?

A lot of people are glowy~! Hee hee~

It's a name curse Mitsuhide-sama. ^_^ And my name apparently means "Black Beauty". <3 It hasn't affected me much, I think... I'm human, but there is an odd tattoo on my back... A black rose.

[silk_in_ebony]

A name curse? Megumi thought so too... it makes sense, in regard to the meaning behind my family name and my own.

Black beauty? How wonderful. A tattoo of a black rose would work perfectly in that respect, though in fairness I have not heard of black roses before.

[darklilprincess]

Hmn..? I'm not sure I know what your name means though...

Perhaps... that would mean I am unique? :3 I hope so anyway...

Ah, forgive me. Akechi is 'sagacious' meaning something like wise, and 'Mitsu' means light. Those two probably are reason enough, especially when put together.

I am sure it does, Kuromi.

[heavensflower]

This one is based off names, from what Lil has read.

[silk_in_ebony]

So it would seem! Are you affected as well, Miss?

[heavensflower]

Yes! Lil is a flower with the moon shining down~! I have...no idea where from, though.

[silk_in_ebony]

Well, if this curse is based on names, then your name has quite a beautiful meaning in it, don't you think?

[too_ugly]

There's a glow about me too, Mitsuhide-san~ ♥

[silk_in_ebony]

Ah, so you have the aura of light about you as well. It is quite an attractive thing, I must confess. Certainly we are better off than some.

;o; mitsuhide, you used the trigger phrase.

[too_ugly]

You think I'm attractive? Mitsuhide-san, you're so confident in expressing your views!

Oh lord. XXD Mitsuhide is O_O now. XD

[silk_in_ebony]

I... ah, I am. I guess...

[crossshapedscar]

Mitsuhide-dono is glowing?

[silk_in_ebony]

Indeed! It is apparently part of some name curse...

[crossshapedscar]

Aa... this unworthy one... has gathered that much... the City is having fun with his name... "Heart of Sword"...

Yare yare...

[silk_in_ebony]

....heart of sword...

I suspect I already know, but... how has this manifested?
