My eBay account got suspended.

I have not used eBay in awhile so I guess I don't know the proper protocol for someone outbidding you for a cursed doll. Cursed with either a violent curse or a child's soul. The seller didn't specify.

It is not proper etiquette to e-mail the person you were bidding against and ask them to sell it to you rather than use it for their BuzzFeed article. Or let them be aware that you were honestly hoping it had some soul trapped in it to give it to friends in the hope that it will come to life in the middle of the night to do whatever cursed dolls do.

Who knew. I thought we were both cursed doll enthusiasts.

I'm sorry?
Weird Santa?

[maidhem]

This one.

[livingimpaired]

Can I have it?

[maidhem]

Dad's been out of town for weeks this time. I don't think he'd even notice it's gone.

[tl;dr TAKE IT OFF HER HANDS.]

[livingimpaired]

Do you want any sort of money for it?

[maidhem]

I have no idea what it's worth, and now I feel like I need to check storage to make sure it isn't making trouble somewhere.

[livingimpaired]

Maybe?
That definitely looks like it would kill me in my sleep.

[maidhem]

I'm going to go right now to look!

[livingimpaired]

Remember, Felicia, it is small.
You can kick it over if it tries to kill you.

[maidhem]

I'm bringing my knives!

And my shuriken!!!

[She's one step closer to attaining full ninja maid status and is very proud of that.]

[livingimpaired]

Ok.
Would you like me to check the timestamps and if you do not write a response in ten minutes, feign being concerned?

[maidhem]

How about you meet me and don't feign concern?
Then you can kick it too.

If you want.

I might freeze it.

[livingimpaired]

I will still feign concern.

But I am curious on seeing it in its natural habitat, as it were.

Freeze it?
You have powers, then?

[maidhem]

[She sent him the address of the storage unit, complete with code to get into the lot.]

I'll meet you there asap!

And yes, I have some. I can't really use them in a fight, but sometimes things kinda freeze.

My healing staff is more reliable.

[livingimpaired]

You should speak with Shouto Todoroki about that. I believe he has ice powers and has quite a bit of control over them. He may have some insight for you.

Healing staff?

I'm going to bring chalk with me. [ Going to draw a pentagram on the floor. ]

[maidhem]

Shouto Todoroki. I'll remember that name!

And yes, a healing staff. The item itself has some magic that only some people can use..
and I guess I'm one of them. It won't stop anyone from dying, but it can help with bruises and uncomplicated breaks.

Why are you bringing chalk?

[livingimpaired]

I believe it would make him happy to know he could help others.

How do you use it?
You see, I have received something like healing -- at least, I have a latent understanding of my power.
Nothing solid, but it is related to healing.

I am going to draw a pentagram on the ground.
I'll bring candles, too.

[maidhem]

I just focus my thought and feelings on helping people and it works?

[She honestly hadn't thought about the 'why' of it.]

Please don't burn down my dad's storage unit!

[livingimpaired]

Ok. [ OK.PNG ]

I have no intention of committing arson.
They're small candles.
How flammable is your father's storage??

[maidhem]

There's a TON of boxes!

[livingimpaired]

All right.
No candles.

[maidhem]

You can bring sage!

And holy water!

[livingimpaired]

I was a priest in my other life.
But I don't think I have the authority to bless water in this one.
So I'm afraid I can't.

Also, I want it to remain haunted, not purify it.
If it comes down to it, we'll just rip the limbs off.
Then it'll just wobble about unable to hurt anyone.
Fair?

[maidhem]

I was a ninja maid, and I don't think I could even handle an ACTUAL cursed doll!

[Lies. Cursed dolls were nothing on dragons.]

You really just want a cursed doll, don't you?
Okay. No holy water, even if we could just go to a church and get some...

[livingimpaired]

A ninja maid.
That explains the shuriken.

And, oh.
Are you Catholic, too?
