In all the time I've been here, yesterday's curse was maybe the most awful thing that has happened yet. Being married to one's worst enemy is one thing, but that innocents, children as adults, have to know death for a day? That's a gross injustice. Now, we can be glad that it was only a day, certainly - but can you measure death? Isn't a day enough, or rather, isn't a day too much? This isn't something that should happen at all, and it's appalling that it does and is to be expected here.

When I went to Huey-kun's today, I saw words scribbled on the walls near aparment building number one. Two sentences: one was written neatly, like a small work of art, almost, and said "Down with the establishment!". The most curious thing about this would perhaps be that it was written in the Japanese spelling of my time. The other was all but smuddled there and I half had to guess what it said, but it was this: "Fuck you, deities". Looks like some rebellious spirits have been stirred by these curses. It would be a wonder if not. Still, the question is what this would accomplish - probably a punishment for the perpetrator, should the deities be especially miffed by having their walls painted on.

Well! This reminds me - Honda Tohru-san and I have talked, and we thought it might be a good idea to have a party. A feel-good party for everyone who wants a little cheer-up after a curse like this. What does everyone think?

(OOC: Plot is a go! Also, heads up that I might end up backdating a bit, as I will be away over the weekend!)

It surprises me that whoever's rebelling is just keeping it at vandalism. I'd have felt like torching a building.

[revengeisalie.livejournal.com]

I know what you mean, but - I don't know. Maybe it's smarter.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

What do you mean?

[revengeisalie.livejournal.com]

These deities - they seem so almighty that any attempt to go against them may seem hopeless from the beginning. It's more than a little frustrating.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

I hear you there, Rin. It's been nothing but awful and I only just got here. If this helps people vent at least a bit of that frustration, then I don't blame them.

[revengeisalie.livejournal.com]

Neither do I, really. I just hope the deities don't care too much about a little paint on the walls.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

They can't expect people to not react to this sort of cruelty. Maybe it'll just amuse them. But I see what you mean. I don't want anyone to be punished for expressing their anger.

[revengeisalie.livejournal.com]

Amuse them? Hah, probably!

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

It's nuts. I can't believe we need to worry about what they'd think. They're the ones messing with us...

[revengeisalie.livejournal.com]

That's exactly the outrageous part! I want to say "how dare they" - but unfortunately, they can dare very well.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Nobody should have the right to do this. No matter if they're gods.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

But other than that... I think the party's a nice idea.

[revengeisalie.livejournal.com]

Really? You do?

Thanks.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Hikaru said we should go to the amusement park. I don't know. People DO need to get a bit of normality back to their lives...

[revengeisalie.livejournal.com]

That sounds like a good idea.

Yes - I think that's important.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Will you and Tohru organize it? Any idea where?

[revengeisalie.livejournal.com]

Well, we only talked about it once, so exact plans remain to be discussed.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help you guys, okay? I'd really like that.

[revengeisalie.livejournal.com]

Okay, I will! I'll tell Tohru-san about the people who are interested.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Great. I'm sure it'll be nice. We should at least try to get over it. Even if we can't accept it...

[revengeisalie.livejournal.com]

I hope it will be success.
