Well, this certainly wasn't how I was expecting to spend my day...

[Shiro's face is a bit obscured at the moment, as his SFC is sat down next to a rice cooker (how did he get a hold of that? The world may never know) as his fingers work over a puzzle.]

ah, no... not quite... but as far as first curses go, this isn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be!

... no, that was close...

[He keeps working at it, but not a second later, it finally clicks and the cooker opens up - empty currently, but at least now he can start to make his rice.]

Wonderful! This is kind of fun! How is everyone else fairing with their puzzles? I'd be more than happy to assist, if some one would be willing to pass some dinner my way in payment!

[He bends down, giving the SFC a completely innocent, 'you know you want to feed me and have me help' smile before shutting his SFC off.]

I can't argue with that. Especially being new - I still don't know all the workings of this city.

But you have learned some. Likely you will know most everything before long. If this is a curse, it is one of the better ones to have as a first experience.

It does seem to be mostly harmless. As was the one I experienced a little after I arrived - with the uh... children running around.

That is a more typical example of a curse. They often cause physical or mental changes to those they affect. Not everyone is changed by a curse, as it seems you saw yourself.

Yes, I noticed. It's an impressive power, to say the least.

Yes. What is true of life in other worlds is rarely true here.

That became evident the moment I arrived.
