[It's been a bad month or so for Stein. He went home for a while, and it wouldn't be much exaggeration to say his worst fears all came true. And then back to Vatheon, and things slowly began to get better (minus Karkat's one misuse of Death the Kid's powers).

His mind is clearing, but he still can't trust himself to go out of his room and interact face to face with anyone. But he's bored, and with his current instability, bored is dangerous. Text is an acceptable compromise.]

Well, that's one more week finished.

Does anyone have a favorite curse? Or at the very least, is there one you wouldn't mind living through again?

I'll pass on the curses.

[But that's not why he's bugging Stein. Shiro hasn't seen Stein in a while, since he's confined himself to his room. He knows that something Bad happened, and that Maka and Kid are working on it, but Shiro is still worried.]

How are you doing?

Better.

At the very least, I'm mostly coherent. And I don't think I'm hallucinating at the moment.

[He's tired and fed up with his own traitorous mind.]

Is there anything I can do for you? Or is it just going to be a matter of waiting?

I'd like to get out of the house, but I probably shouldn't.

Favorite?

[What a loaded question, Maka's never really liked any of the curses, nothing positive ever came out of them, though...]

I guess I don't mind the thought bubbles as much as the rest of them. It's how I met Rin.

[Stein's thought bubbles were kind of a mess, haze and blood and flickering hallucinations gradually tilting into something closer to sanity. He didn't much like that curse.]

So, this one was nostalgic for the two of you.

A little bit, for me at least.

[Not that she experienced it, but for the sake of the question she doesn't mind seeing it.]

Do you have a favorite, Professor?

Not really. They all provide fascinating opportunities for research. [He's just going to pretend that Maka didn't have to (help him) deal with him the past few weeks. He'll just pretend everything is fine and has never been anything but fine.]

It's funny hearing the words 'favorite' and 'curse' in the same sentence. Curses aren't usually favorable.

[Says someone who has some pretty nasty experiences with curses.]

Edited 2013-09-03 03:11 (UTC)

They usually aren't, but apparently some people here manage to enjoy Vatheon's.

There have been some that have been fun. The time we were all fighters in a game was enjoyable.

[She wasn't too certain how she should go about using this thing. Monaka was glad that no one would have been able to tell how much she fumbled with the device before she was able to properly put together a response.]

Hello. Are these the same curses that are mentioned in the pamphlet? Why are they called curses, if you have a favorite one?

I'm still not sure I understand everything.

[It was scary and confusing. But she hadn't broken down just yet. She had come close a few times, and she wasn't sure how much longer she could hold out.]

[Well, someone's obviously new here.]

I'm not quite sure why they're called curses, but they're not always terrible. Sometimes people even enjoy them.

[Yeah, as new as the freshly fallen snow. Maybe newer.

But she honestly cannot imagine why anyone would enjoy a curse. Even if they were good. She shakes her head, before saying another word.]

Could you tell me more about the curses?

My favourite had to be when the world was like a video game. That was the best.

Oh? Why was that your favorite?

Because, it was just like a video game and I love video games.

They all seem like a pain to me.

Then what's your least favorite?

Any of the ones that show our thoughts or force us to tell them.

I still can't get over the one where I was a fox. That was really amazing, heh, even it was uhh. . .

More than ten years ago for me. I'm, kind of unsure about how long Vatheon time that was though... Heh.

1 TH1NK MY FAVOR1TE W1LL ALWAYS BE,
uH,
tHE ONE WHERE 1 WAS A FOX?
bUT THAT WAS MORE THAN TEN YEARS AGO FOR ME,
1 AM NOT REALLY SURE,
hOW ALONG,
1N vATHEON T1ME 1T WAS THOUGH,
hEH.

Are you a brown-blooded troll, or have you just adopted the text quirk of one? [He really wants to dissect a troll.]

[Oh well, that's wonderful.]

1'M A BROWN BLOODED TROLL.
yEAH.

Escaping the curse isn't an option. You can't expect to study others without being studied in return.
