[ Jade is not amused. Lookit her just standing there, dripping eat. Her little dog ears are flattened back against her head and everything. She is standing right where this place dropped her. It appears to be some kind of park area. ]

Okay, I am pretty sure I am not where I should be right now. Ugh...

[ Insert Wizard of Oz joke here.

Okay. Change of plans. Mode switch. ]

hello??
can somebody tell me what the heck is going on right now????

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[WAIT FOR IT...]

[No way. This place is totally fucking with him. It has to be. John and jade couldn't have both wounded up here at the same time.

Right???]

[One second. Still processing. Please hold while we try to connect you to an associate.]

[Nope. That associate is never coming.]

[OH RIGHTTTTT. Reply to Harley. Doing that now.

Shit is under control. Yep.]

:P i think i can wait a few more minutes for that essay then

[So she'll be waiting for him, not sitting but at least standing in one place. She keeps looking around, a little awed by the scenery. Just takin' it all in.]

[Incoming towel to the face at, oh who cares what time it is!]

Incoming. Angry fluffy, rectangular cloths. What do you do, Harley? Fight? Run? Use the towel as it should be used?

[Is he obvious that he isn't sure how to talk to Jade in person? Because he might be kind of nervous.]

[Jade does neither and the towel falls on her head.] Hey! [she protests, remove it. She scrunches up her face at him but is appreciative he brought it. She immediately starts rubbing at her hair.]

The latter. I am so cold. [Being dripping wet is no fun.

Also she is none the wiser to Dave's nervousness though she's really happy to see him. Last time she did he was dead. She smiles.] Thanks for getting here so fast.

[And he smiles. Except it's more like a snotty and smug smirk. Like he beat her or something, except that's silly.]

Yeah, I arrived here during December and it was snowing. I got sick and Egbert thought it was the funniest thing to laugh at my misfortune, the ass.

Naw, I had time. Wouldn't want someone to beat me at giving the five minute tour around this place. How dare they try to beat me. Too bad I'm a determined guy, and Harley only deserves the best introduction to a relatively crappy place.

[She giggles and drapes the towel over her shoulders, smiling kindly back at him. She didn't think she'd see him again for three years, so this was kind of a nice surprise.]

Well, I'm glad you're okay.

[And then more excitedly she adds,] I've never been in a real city before, you know!

I guess okay is one way of putting it. Stuff hasn't really been happening as of late. Well, I guess some people are in a slight frenzy and people are sick from this curse crap, but nothing too big luckily. [At least, he didn't really care to pay attention to everyone scramble about crazy trollcestors. He's just that observant apparently.]

It's more like a town. In an underwater bubble. If you want city, you should head to Houston. That's more of a city then this. [He pauses though.] So...you don't remember here? At all?

It sounds like this place is pretty crazy from everything I've been hearing. [All those trolls, man...]

Town or city, it's still something I've only ever seen pictures of. Though I guess there is an island above us too. That sounds more familiar, hehe. [She frowns slightly, thoughtful.] No... Why would I? Was I here before?

Honestly, it's pretty tame with what we've dealt with. I will tell you that we used to have faeries, but then they exploded. It was kind of really gross.

I haven't actually been up there, believe it or not. [He rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly, shoving his hands into his pockets.] You and Egbert were both here for a little while. Well, you actually came around the same I did. Back in December, if I remember right.

They exploded? [Oh no those poor things..... She thinks to ask something else about that but he derails her thoughts.]

In December... [She frowns, furrowing her eyebrows and chewing on her lower lip in thought. She already knew time worked funny here, but...] Sorry, Dave. I really don't remember. Maybe it was a different me. Like a future me or a me from a different timeline? [Honestly, she doesn't really know how the time stuff works. That's his thing.]

Does John remember?

[He flipped his shit. It was embarrassing.]

I wasn't expecting you to, honestly. Most people come here without remembering, if they were here before. John doesn't remember either. [Which was...well on one hand it was a relief. On the other, it was terrifying. Only because he remembered everything since he's been here and hasn't left.] I'm not mad or anything. Just, you know. A lot happens. [Oh boy. Dave is pretty sure he isn't going to be able to man up and mention that they got together for a relatively short period of time. Too awkward. Nope. Nope. Nope. He is a wuss and he'll just live with it.]

[Oh, Dave. It's okay she won't judge you.]

Oh... [She looks troubled though. She isn't sure she likes not remembering stuff that supposedly happened to her. She never liked it in the past when she could never remember when she fell asleep.]

What happened? I mean, is there anything I should know about that I've forgotten?

[Well Dave if you didn't want to explain it you shouldn't have even brought it up because now she's really curious.]

[But he's supposed to be cool man.]

Uh. We lived together. Which, by the way, is a thing that will happen. John, you, and me. I will bitch like a whiny whore if we do not live under the same roof again. Some stuff happened. Curses and what not. I guess nothing worth noting.

[Here's to hoping that his bullshit lie sounded like...it wasn't a lie. I don't know.]

[He's cool in spirit...]

Oh! Hehehe, that's fine. I don't mind living with you guys. [It'll be like a permanent sleep over yeeeaaaaah!]

Do the curses have anything to do with this weird tattoo? [She pulls up her sleeve to show him the mark on her inner wrist.] I keep hearing about both this and the curses but I don't really know what either is.

[Well, she might still ask around to uncover as much of her missing memory as she can... because curiosity. Also she would feel bad if she had forgotten someone specific.]

[That works...I guess.]

Good. Because it's a thing that's happening. John already settled and your room is open for your sweet puppy butt. [Oh, saying that out loud was kind of awkward in retrospect.]

Yeah, I guess? I mean, they don't really do anything but glow. But I guess they usually glow when shit hits the fan. Right now we're experiencing some sicknasty epidemic. Except it isn't cool, and it's actually really annoying.

Cruses range from stupid to ludicrous. One time we kept saying embarrassing confessions, which was probably the worst of them for me. Then we all got thrown into some messed up fairytale. This time, it seems to be a 'everyone should feel like crap' curse.

[Sweet puppy butt?? Dave, you're so funny. And sometimes weird.] Well you'll have to show me the way then so I can sit my butt down there, then.

[Pfft.

She examines her mark curiously, touching it with the fingers of her other hand. It feels like a tattoo, nothing really special. Except for what everyone is saying about them.]

I can't imagine what kind of embarrassing things a cool kid would say, hehehe.

[You mean always weird.] No worries, I'll lead the way.

[He motions her to follow after him.]

Oh you know. The deep confessions of a cool kid. The things that I keep in my diary. It's so very poetic, even Rose would get glassy eyed at it.

[Yes, that too.......]

[Jade bounces after him, still patting herself in a few places with the towel. It was pointless though. She'd have to change and let her clothes dry whenever they got to her new home.]

Sounds scandalous. The deep, dark confessions of an internet celebrity! Hehehe.

[NOT HERE] Incoming maybe spam?!
