16th Message - [Video Post]

[The video clicks on to show the usual disaster area which is Dulcie's apartment. However, the usual angel isn't present. Instead, and unfamiliar face is leaning in towards the camera. Wearing one of Dulcie's pink and silky bathrobes.



Not that this chick doesn't have awesome taste, but does anyone know where any of my clothes are? I went to get dressed this morning and my closet is full of girls' clothes. Which, hey, I'm an open-minded enough guy, but I don't feel like freaking people out at work today.

Help is always appreciated.

[He moves to turn off the device, and a flash of familiar wing can be seen on the edge of the screen.]

[ooc: Dulcie is always-been-a-boy Genderswapped today! Say hello to Denis. He may be popping up again soon. :-D Also a bit of a placeholder, since I'm off to work any minute, but will tag on lunch break/after work. Answers to be coming from puerilisangelus]

You'd have thought you'd notice if you moved into someone else's flat, too, but you managed not to.

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

This is my flat. I moved in here last month right after I got the job at Geo's Sweet Shoppe. I pay rent on it. I bought all that stuff in my living room.

If this is a prank, it's not a very good one.

[designedtoparty]

That's bullshit!

If this was a prank, you don't think I'd have cracked by now?

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

Maybe. And I guess the gun would've been a bit of over-kill.

[He flops down on the bed and goes back to work on his lollipop.]

So who is this mystery woman I've supposedly kidnapped?

[designedtoparty]

[Nathan goes back to slouching among the clothes, digging out a cigarette to light up.]

I still don't know who you are. Why would I tell you?

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

[Denis rolls over onto one side and fixes Nathan with a familiar soul-searching stare.]

But I know who you are.

Which means one of us is either cursed or crazy.

[designedtoparty]

[Nathan looks away from it. He really doesn't like the way that makes him feel.]

What, so you think I'm crazy? Because we already know I'm not the cursed one here.

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

Well, you did just burst into my apartment waving a gun around, so I think I'm allowed to be a little worried for your sanity.

I don't feel cursed. Everything's exactly the same as it's always been.

[designedtoparty]

Except you aren't who you seem to think you are. This is Dulcie's life. You don't get to have it.

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

I think it would really help me if you told me who this Dulcie is.

[designedtoparty]

I don't have to. You act like you know everything about her already.

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

I really don't.

Did something happen to her?

[designedtoparty]

How would I know? She was here yesterday.

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

[Denis rolls onto his back and contemplates the ceiling for a few moments.]

Maybe there is a curse going on.

[designedtoparty]

What, where they take one person and replace them with some creepy, gay guy? That's weird even by their standards.

You even drew the same thing on your wings. [There's so much pouting from Nathan. This is completely unfair.]

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

She's an angel?

[He doesn't like it, but things are starting to come together in Denis' head.]

So I supposedly woke in someone else's apartment this morning. Someone who is now missing. And I have memories of everyone here but no one remembers me.

Are you thinking what I am?

[designedtoparty]

No.

[He... kind of is. But he's very weirded out and would really like to be wrong.]

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

Really?

[designedtoparty]

Well, okay, maybe. But I don't want to. That's really fucking creepy.

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

Oh come on it's not that big of a deal. I'm really the one who should be freaking about it more.

[designedtoparty]

Why would you be freaking out more? Everything's the same, so far as you're concerned.

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but the very foundations of my existence and every memory I've ever had has just been proved faulty.

That could be highly traumatic to a guy.

[designedtoparty]

You don't look very traumatised.

[puerilisangelus.livejournal.com]

Well one of us has to stay calm here.

[designedtoparty]

Hey, I'm calm.

[Pause.]

Now.
