calling all grubs

[onlyasign]

[The video shows a much happier, more content Sufferer than the network has seen lately. In fact, he almost looks like Signless again. Over his shoulder, the video catches a cat-troll, one who could easily be mistaken for Disciple except for her shorter hair and blue kitty hat, sitting on a couch and cuddling something, with two kittens bounding around her. The audio catches the occasional giggle, purr, or squeak.]

Hello! It seems we're under another curse. I'm unaffected by this one, but many of my friends are not. If anyone finds someone who looks like this, please bring them to me.

[He holds up a picture of a... well, it looks like a giant, smiling maggot baby. Which is basically what it is. This is an Alternian grub, everyone.]

My assistant Nepeta and I will take charge of him or her for the week, if you aren't interested in caring for them.

[OOC: answers can come from Sufferer or Nepeta or both!]

Not just that one either! There might be lots of them! Bring them all over to us to play with. ...and look after too, of course!

[crackpotcrocker]

Ok, man. [Thumb up approval]

[Beat] Like what are their names you know?

[bestestfurrend]

I'm afraid I don't know yet! We don't know which ones of them have been affected.

[crackpotcrocker]

Affected? [blink blink]

[bestestfurrend]

They're only small because there's a curse happening right now! Usually they're my age.

[crackpotcrocker]

Magic doesn't exist, you know.

[bestestfurrend]

It doesn't have to be magic! It's just a curse!

[crackpotcrocker]

But aren't curses, magic?

[bestestfurrend]

Not really. Curse is just a name for what's happening! We don't know what's causing it.
