Well, I guess I'm going to be up all night now. Nothing quite like spending all day alternately lying around and sleeping to make me lose all interest in going anywhere near the bed.

I do hope nobody did anything they regret too much yesterday? It was... certainly interesting. It seems quite a few of the deadly sins were being represented, and some of those can lead us to actions we wouldn't normally consider appropriate, or even faithful to our personalities or true desires. Is the entire point of this City to test our boundaries, invade our personal lives, take meaning out of that which has meaning and devalue what's left of our lives that does matter? The very thought of taking someone's free will away is so far beyond wrong... yet, for these so-called "deities," it's apparently just part of a routine day, as evidenced by these curses and the fact that we're even here to begin with.

I suppose the kindest thing I can say of this place so far is that it's... an interesting experience. One I could have done without. Whatever their intentions may be in putting us through these trials, all they seem to accomplish is, at best, humiliation and, at worst, violation.

And my jaw's still swollen...

....someone punched you?

[dr_conscience]

Well, yes, but... it was the curse, really.

[eiremagic]

...was it Cameron?

[dr_conscience]

... yes.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Blah blah blah. That's a curse. Get over it.

What, did you get so knebbish you ground your teeth too hard?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Because...it'd be humiliating if someone hit you. Particularly a woman. Like Cameron.

you saw nothing. >.>

[dr_conscience]

It's a curse. Get over it.

I DID SO

Why are you lying to the midget?

[as_damaged]

I am so, so sorry.

[dr_conscience]

It was a curse, and I'm fine.

Don't worry about it.

[as_damaged]

I know, but-- I feel awful. I would never have said any of that, if I'd been in my right mind.

I didn't hit you too hard, did I?

not that he doubts you - but.

[dr_conscience]

... yeah, I know. It's fine, really.

Don't worry, I've been hit harder.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Nooo.

Nooooooo.

Really?

[as_damaged]

I was cursed!

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Poorly. You still can't insult people. That only means you need to take the crash coarse.

[witchinbloom.livejournal.com]

Yeah, bed's not going to look good for a while...

Not that I was so much sleeping in mine.

New? It sounds like you've got the City all figured out.

[dr_conscience]

Not at all, though I certainly could have had it much worse.

Relatively. I've been here... I suppose a couple of weeks now. I'm Dr. James Wilson.

[witchinbloom.livejournal.com]

About the same time I got here, then. Tara MaClay.

[dr_conscience]

Well, it's a pleasure to meet you, Miss MaClay. I guess we're just equally lucky. Have you settled in alright?

[holymadonna.livejournal.com]

Oh dear... Doctor Wilson, are you alright? This was your second curse, wasn't it?

[dr_conscience]

Oh, yes, I'm fine; thank you, Lilith.

It was... I guess I'm just lucky.

[horrible-protag.livejournal.com]

It was quite an odd curse, wasn't it?

[dr_conscience]

It certainly was. I had no idea the City had a religious agenda.

[horrible-protag.livejournal.com]

Well, when you've got self-proclaimed deities 'running the show' I suppose you can never really tell.

Not that we're in a show.
