rewriter | w5 curfew: we might die but we are going to be SO relaxed.

[she is squinting at the snacks, which are made out of bugs. help.]

... I probably should have brought something else for us to eat while we wait.

Oh, actually—

[ goes over to wherever he's got his sleeping bag and stuff and comes back with a bunch of granola bars and some boxes of raisins and other really boring snacks ]

I got like, a million of these 'cause I was super hungry earlier, but now I'm not, so. Help yourself.

[she blinks, surprised.]

Oh... Well, that's convenient? Thanks, Simon.

No problem.

[ ... ]

N-now that I'm thinking about it, I'm pretty sure that was a curse, actually...

... Oh, jeez. You think so?

[HELP. looking at him in concern.]

Well, at least it sounds like it wore off?

Mm, it came on like, really suddenly right before the thing yesterday? And I just kept being really hungry no matter what I ate, until a little bit ago.

[ so... probably cannot just be attributed to the munchies from whatever the heck he inhaled in the maze... ]

Aw, man... I'm sorry. Someone must've been playing a really mean prank on you or something.

It's okay, haha. Honestly I'm surprised I haven't been hit with more of them...

Mhmm... I know how you feel. I think this week was my second time getting hit by a curse.

O-oh, yeah, the... romance thing, right?

[she nods.]

The romance thing. To be honest, I'm a little bit mad that someone did that to us... Playing with a girl's heart like that is especially cruel, you know?

Y-yeah, that really is pretty messed up... a lot worse than just making someone hungry, anyway...

They're both bad, but...

Jeez, why us?

I mean... I think people just don't like me very much... I dunno why it keeps happening to you, though.

... If someone was feeling vindictive, I guess I could see why I got cursed this week.

Vindictive...?

[... she glances at the other team justice members.]

Because of the thing with Netzach's notebook last week, remember?

O-oh. Right... that...

[ they can hear you, monika ]

I don't think any of us hold a grudge over that. [ not when someone mcfucking killed fuzukawa and fuzukawa also killed zelda ]

It was probably just some idiot who thought you and Alex would make a cute couple.

... Right. Okay.

[she scrunches her nose.]

Alex isn't even my type. It takes more than being around the same age to make a good couple, jeez...

[SO ANNOYED WITH WHOEVER CURSED HER.]

As far as you know, anyway... But thanks, Amelia.

...oh. So that was a curse.

Of course it was!

I mean--I knew that!
