XV → King of Beasts

[one_that_leads]

I remember this from before.
It's returned so soon.

Another curse.
And great variety in it, juding from the Network.
Yet again.

Strange to see such variety so soon again, so soon after a day of reversal.

A new method, a new technique of the deities?

Hn.
I remember the sunlight and the grass before.
Those, and hands stroking my mane.

|| Private to Joshua || Warded || Cursed ||
I have been charged with your care.
For so long as I have patience.

Do not try it.
My form does not affect these orders.

...Whoa!

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Yes?

[neverbecharity.livejournal.com]

...And you can talk!

......This place is weird.

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

It's convenient, though. Imagine what would happen if he couldn't talk and was just roaring at you? You'd freak out, wouldn't you? And he could be saying the nicest things ever....

[neverbecharity.livejournal.com]

You can talk, too?

...But. There was this dog who couldn't...

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Yep. I can also chase mice and scratch you, but you wouldn't be surprised by that, would you?

Maybe they weren't a cursed dog, or it's a different type of curse. Then again...sometimes the curses just affect other people differently.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

There is a great deal of variety in this curse.

It must be that.

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Yeah...so far, we're the only animals I've seen. There's been more kids running around, and Alexiel is definitely been deaged, if what she's doing is any indication.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

It's a strange mix.
No rhyme or reason.

...

What is she doing?

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Yeah.... I wonder if this has happened before. Can't ask Alexiel, though, obviously.

Sitting around, naked, in the garden, on a stone chair. ...I'd be worried, but it's her, and it's just for now. I'm just gonna keep an eye on her to make sure nothing big happens.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

No, you can't.

Hn.

Yes. Do so.

[neverbecharity.livejournal.com]

......You aren't a cat normally, too, then?

Hmmm.

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Nope. But...the City DOES have talking cats. I've run into three, though two of them are just like familiars.

[neverbecharity.livejournal.com]

...Then, could that dog be a regular dog? Or do all animals here talk?

......But it was typing.

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Nope. Some animals here don't talk.

...then it's probably cursed, but the curse prevents it from talking.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Ah.

I am not ordinarily a lion.
It's a curse.

I agree, though.
This place is strange.

[neverbecharity.livejournal.com]

...You're not-- ...So...you're...? Oh. [still doesn't get it exactly]

Curses, huh. Some weird guy calling this sword his baby was telling me the same thing.

...Yeah. I can't find someone I need to take care of.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

I have been transformed into a lion.
Until midnight.

Yes.
He was probably cursed too.

I see.
Perhaps you are cursed too.

[neverbecharity.livejournal.com]

Until midnight...? This place is kinda like those stories...

Yeah. I think so, too. He kept thinking I was someone else.

...Me? It can't be...I was-- Well, if it's only until midnight, I'll probably be able to go home soon.

......Thanks.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Like a legend or a tale? Somewhat.

Yes.

Hn. I think you must be. Maybe so.

[neverbecharity.livejournal.com]

Yeah, like magic pumpkins...stuff like that.

...Do you know if "b 1" is close to the bakery?

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Heh. Something like that.

"B 1"? Elaborate.

[neverbecharity.livejournal.com]

I...can't really. The...there's a dog who can't speak. It was trying to tell me where it is.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

I do not know what it is.
I do not know where it is.

Not without further information.

[neverbecharity.livejournal.com]

I see. Well, I have to go find it.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Good hunting.

[dearprincess.livejournal.com]

It got you too?

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

It did.
For a second time.

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Let's cuddle him. He's all big and warm. I bet we can have the best nap ever with him.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

... ... ...

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Problem?

[PURRING like MAD.]

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

...

No.

[dearprincess.livejournal.com]

[Purrs and kneads gently at his side.]

I like this.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

[Floppy Katan is floppy... Low growling lion purr...]

Hmm...

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Good. Nap time'll be now, then.

[Rubs up against and snuggles, purring still.]

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

[Flop flop. Please see illustration in journal~]

Here and now.
In the sunshine...

[Yawn...]

[dearprincess.livejournal.com]

Okay! Good idea!
