And I have no way of knowing what the side effect is going to be.

... What's going on with Tonbokiri? [ is it worth. the risk of trying to help. ]

[chaoticlootral]

Dunno exactly, was just talking to him for a minute. [Scratching his head. Maybe Taako just doesn't know how to interpret other people having emotions?]

[applechemist]

Well... Did he do or say something worrying?

[chaoticlootral]

He just seems . . . down.

[Hip shimmy away from feelings.]

Fuck. Everyone seems down.

[applechemist]

[ T. Taako. ]

That doesn't sound like a curse...

[chaoticlootral]

[Listen.]

And Dick is . . . using a slushy to bury his feeling. Beau is just sitting in the fucking snow!

... This was a particularly bad week. We went from one death to five. You can't expect people to be handling it well.

[chaoticlootral]

And these ones-- [No offense to. The last two deaths, but.] Everyone liked them. Fuck.

I don't know what to even say to people anymore. It's like. Oh, this sucks! Yeah! No kidding.

[applechemist]

Even if that's all you can think of to say, I'm sure it will still help them to hear it.

[chaoticlootral]

[Does it? Does it help? To express a feeling to Taako who then thinks you might be suffering a curse because you are sad?]

Not sure that it does. Kinda like offering, um, a dumb fanfiction and a spell that doesn't work in a trying time kinda thing.

[applechemist]

Those things still helped. Even if they don't work, they help. Showing people that you're trying helps.

[chaoticlootral]

I . . . guess.

[Rubbing at his forehead. Swiveling his hips.]

Tomorrow is gonna be hell.

[applechemist]

... It is.

I kept getting upset that there wasn't enough evidence. Now there's going to be too much... It's going to be hard to keep things straight.
