7th Devotion: To Sleep, Perchance to Dream...

[favoritetraitor]

Yesterday was...

My apologies to anyone that I might have put out with my erratic behavior, mainly Saya, and to Dr. Disraeli... I was not in control of myself.

These 'curses' are quite powerful it seems. I can't even remember the last time I slept like that... the dreams I had! How can I truly be upset for having been given such an experience once again...

I also had the most wonderful meal... fine wine. Such happiness, it's been so long.

Saya, I hope that you were untouched by the curse. It pains me to think of you, alone, without anyone to watch over you, and having been struck with the malady of a 'curse'. Please let me know if you should need me. I will be by your side within minutes!

I will gladly take your place if it will spare you of any unpleasantness.

It did indeed seem so.

And you are quite recovered from the ordeal?

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Yes, thank you.

I do hope that it will be awhile before I have to face such a thing again. There's much work that needs to be done.

I've already started a log of my experiences with these so called 'curses'. Hm, I wonder... how it affects people physiologically. Perhaps I should start monitoring that as well...

[deadlyhealing.livejournal.com]

Though there is no accounting for the frequency with which one is affected, hopefully after the severity of yesterday we will be granted a respite, however brief, in which we will be able to continue our work.

It would not be a bad idea...though it may be difficult to monitor it at all, given that many people would not recall their agreement to be monitored once they are cursed.

A difficult situation to be sure.

I like a challenge.

Dr. Disraeli, would you care to join me for drinks later? My treat, after the care you took of me yesterday. We can discuss business...

[deadlyhealing.livejournal.com]

As do I. I am sure we will find a solution to it.

It would be my pleasure, Dr Goldsmith. There is much for us to discuss.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Excellent!

I'll organize the few notes I made. Would you prefer to come here? Or shall we meet at a restaurant or other such establishment in town?

[deadlyhealing.livejournal.com]

I will bring my recorded observations of the City with me.

Perhaps a more private setting would be more appropriate given that there is work to be done. The same apartment as yesterday, I assume?

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

Yes, that will be fine.

Hm, shall I make dinner as well... do you have any dietary needs that I should be aware of?

[deadlyhealing.livejournal.com]

Ah...very well, if it is not an inconvenience. I do not eat meat.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

It's no inconvenience at all. I'll take care of everything.

[deadlyhealing.livejournal.com]

I will see you this evening, then.

[favoritetraitor.livejournal.com]

I'm looking forward to it.
