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.]

... at least it's not like everyone else could hear it this time.

[minesprettier]

I know better than to be that embarrassing even when I'm spilling my thoughts to everyone. Not many people can see this.

[wasabloodknight]

Some of us didn't have a choice.

You could've gone somewhere else or put some music on or something.

[minesprettier]

I know, but I didn't want to or I would have ignored it without trouble.

[wasabloodknight]

So not only did you hear us going at it, but after you realized what it was, you actually wanted to listen.

I never pegged you for a pervert.

[minesprettier]

It was the first time I've done anything like that, and it'll likely be the last as well since it bothers you this much to think that someone other than your boyfriend is interested in imagining you having that sort of fun.

[wasabloodknight]

.... please tell me you didn't 'imagine' things too much.

[minesprettier]

I think that depends on what your definition of "too much" is.

[wasabloodknight]

You know what I mean!

[minesprettier]

No, I don't.

[wasabloodknight]

Just what the hell did you imagine?

[minesprettier]

[This is Chloe REALLY not wanting to answer the question.]

That I was participating with both of you instead of simply listening in.

And now it's Chloe's turn to squirm

[wasabloodknight]

That's the second time you thought about that.

[minesprettier]

[The second time Ken knows about, at least.]

I'm sorry it bothers you. I hadn't intended for you to ever find out about either time, but it seems this community and the trouble it causes have other plans for some reason that I can't figure out at all.

[wasabloodknight]

Maybe it think this is something I should know about.

Is there anything else you think you should tell me.

[minesprettier]

I'm only jealous of you and Aya lately because I wish I could be part of it in some way.

[On that note, Chloe thinks he's better off turning his computer off for a while so he can read and try not to think about how awkward things are going to be from now on.]
