Nightshade - Private Voice

[minesprettier]

I have a theory about the cause for the more interesting effects seen on the network lately, since things from Tuesday can be easily linked to the cupcakes many people were gifted with. But rather than go public with incomplete information, I'd like to ask this from a small group first. Have you eaten a golden apple recently? If so, did you experience anything unusual shortly after eating it? If not, I'd like you to refrain from doing so unless you're completely comfortable with the risk you're taking.

I would simply ask the one who gave the apples, but I haven't been able to reach Eris lately and I believe she may have lost her connection with the community altogether. Some people are likely to miss her far more than others.

[OOC: His side effect of eating it is that he's both more talkative and more truthful. I only ask that anything he reveals about his other job/the real reason for his injuries remains a secret between Chloe and your character if those topics come up.]

You know... now that I think about it, I grabbed an apple before I went for my jog the morning when I ended up going blind.

[minesprettier]

Thank you. I had one this morning as well.

[wasabloodknight]

So you're worried about people eating apples and then you eat one yourself. Cute.

[minesprettier]

Eating it is what led me to make this theory in the first place, actually.

[wasabloodknight]

Well, I'm glad someone finally figured it out.

[minesprettier]

It's only a theory, but it seems to be a good one so far.

[wasabloodknight]

So far.

Have you noticed all the cats on the network today?

[glimmerous_fop]

there were apple slices in my fruit salad, but i didn't notice any gold

[minesprettier]

Maybe that's enough. I'll have to keep it in mind.

[glimmerous_fop]

well someone else made the salad so it might have been golden at one time

[minesprettier]

That's very true. I suppose if the salad was good, it might have been worth ending up as a cat.

[glimmerous_fop]

well if i end up as vongole's snack it will be a tragic day for gavinner fans around the world...and a very sorry day for me

[minesprettier]

Climb on something high. I don't think dogs can do that.

[redlikecrimson]

I ate an apple for breakfast.

[minesprettier]

That makes all of us who have had troubles so far, then.

[redlikecrimson]

And you ate an apple not that long ago.

I suppose we will have to keep an eye on the food and make sure that it's something we actually purchased before eating it.

[minesprettier]

That's probably a good idea. And compared to how my day's going, I think I would rather have turned into an animal or gone blind.

[redlikecrimson]

I think we should keep you away from Michel until your twenty-four hours are up.

[minesprettier]

I already planned on it. It'll be easier on both of us.

[sky_protector]

I've had chips, pocky, and ramen lately.

[minesprettier]

You might want to avoid apples for the time being

[sky_protector]

I probably would anyway since we don't have any fruit in the apartment since my father is at the lab and forgets to shop.

And I haven't purchased any fruit lately because it's easier to eat other things while I study.

[minesprettier]

It's not exactly healthy to avoid other things while you study, though.

[sky_protector]

I know that. I'll eat them later after this test at school.

[minesprettier]

If you don't, I'm tempted to visit you and deliver better food myself.
