[ i don't know this is probably after the trio return on the beach and the three new people show up. would geto be at the bar? if he's not then we're in the void and you pick, but either way apollo's eventually seeking him out. ]
Do you mind if I ask you a couple of questions? [ ah yes. interrogation hour. ]
[ you were so gracious to let us in to your gy spoon.....
apollo's something of a naturally curious and suspicious person, so the idea that ankou just happened to be here the whole time and is a watchman of death doesn't entirely sit right with him. mostly because it doesn't make a ton of sense. there's a twitch of his lips when geto calls the other three of them goons and he does nothing to discount that. not his battle to fight here. ]
Do you really believe that? A watchman of death suddenly appearing when Ms. Sancoeur said her reasons for her actions was because we cheated Death.
I don't. [ Geto is also a suspicious and paranoid person. ] It's what he claims, but there's no reason to believe he's telling the truth. I should review if I have a truth detecting curse in my arsenal, perhaps...
Is that... just a thing you can do? Create curses. Or carry them around, I guess. [ remembers the thing that leapt in front of the train and kind of goes "oh this makes some more sense i guess." ]
If regular humans can't see them, can they see regular humans? [ like ghosts. ] Sounds like a pretty powerful ability. Is it something you're born with?
Cursed spirits can see humans, yes, but regular humans can't see them. They might exist in your world as well, but you're just not aware of them. [ :) ] Their existence is kept secret from the general public to prevent panic.
But yes, the ability is something you're born with. Sometimes it's passed down through bloodline, but sometimes it occurs at random.
[ he kind of wonders if he would just based on what his eyesight can pick up, but he decides it's too much to contemplate at the moment. ]
Usually when people hear the word "cursed", they would panic, yeah. They must be a lot to handle then if only certain people can see them. [ ... ] Can I ask if yours was a bloodline ability? Or was it random?
So that's what they're called. [ huh. ] I've been wondering if there's something unseen, too. It would make the most sense why we haven't found a source to any of what's actually happening to us. But if it's something only a few people could see... what then?
[ he had been roaming around the casino, but the flashing lights and the noise are starting to piss him off. never mind, he can investigate later!! so he turns to head outside, dressed down in jeans and a hoodie but with his messenger bag strapped to him. it's a lowkey day, but still a back to work day.
he does stop in his mission though upon seeing geto. hello. ]
Oh. [ he wasn't sure how old he thought geto was (not old) but 27 still surprises him a little. ] Yeah, like I said, not that much older. Anyway... I'm pretty glad, too. I didn't think it was possible to be that brainwashed without any hint it was happening.

Do you mind if I ask you a couple of questions? [ ah yes. interrogation hour. ]
no subject
Straight to the point... What will you do if I say no?
no subject
but okay. he will sit in a nearby loungechair. ]
Wonder why you'd say no, mostly.
no subject
[ Hehe, smiles. ]
But now I'm curious what you're going to ask, so go ahead.
no subject
I was wondering if you've noticed anything different since you arrived. You were the first of us to show up here, weren't you?
no subject
Sets his book to the side. ]
The glitching has been occurring since I arrived. But whatever happened with those three goons today, that's new.
The appearance of that stranger is also new, but maybe we had just missed him this entire time.

Actually, it's not. He's just an asshole. ]

It's like Pokémon, if you know what that is.
no subject
Yeah, I'm familiar. So you just have them with you. How do you get them to stay? Where do you even find them?
no subject
There are individuals with unique abilities as well, and mine happens to be controlling these cursed spirits.
no subject
[ Better question, why are they cursed?
no subject
But yes, the ability is something you're born with. Sometimes it's passed down through bloodline, but sometimes it occurs at random.

Think this biome was one of those unseen things?

Back to work, Mr Justice?

I took a few days off and I think I'm paying the price for it.

I'm not hungover. Do I look hungover?

You do look remarkably fresh faced... The power of youth.

You can't be that much older than me if your comparison for your curses were Pokémon.

I wonder why you two... Were you to to anything suspicious?
