You know, I think some April Fool's pranks are okay! Like the silly ones they do on websites or the really good natured kind. But I am LESS okay with someone changing the ENTIRE layout of our entire building and giving us treasure maps to go around it which for the record my brother-in-law did and it's a pain!!

There's some weird effects coming in from outside this planet at the moment, although they'll mostly miss the city itself. There'll be a localized temporal storm, but it shouldn't be more than a mild irritation. It looks like it's just going to yank some things around and send them on through. I think Maurice is going to call out sick that day, or if I were him I definitely would.

Hey, I kind of want a four-leaf clover. I know that's more last month than this month, but still. If you find one, pass it along.

Also, I want to do a cutesy April Fools thing, so don't get too mad!

For the remainder of the day all users will have their userpic replaced with a picture of them dressed as their favorite animal. It's pretty harmless as far as pranks go, and it will change back either at midnight or after trying to change the picture twice, prompting an "Are you sure?" message but no further ill effects.

main teas for this spread are earl gray english breakfast ginger green
there are savories too
partner makes them though
stop in when you can
we change the menu often so not getting tired of the flavors either

Oh, I know, I've been in before. The flowing menu is one of the reasons I try to make it a regular thing.

oh
didnt know you were a regular customer
i dont have a great memory with names/faces

Oh it's fine, it's fine! We've actually spoken before, too.

ive been really busy
then teeth
teeth happened and now my business partner
hes such a teaser

-...what-

I'm sorry but what do you mean by 'teeth happened'?

i have vampire teeth
which are cool and i dont need to get any special work done for
but
theyre sharp and i lisp

Huh. I suppose it speaks to current affairs that reading that isn't entirely surprising.

i had one of those memories where someone called me a leech
i guess this is why
also i called him a lizard and now he grows scales
so
yeah

How poetic. In a crude way, anyways.

i guess
those were just memories
not what we are really like now

So you see your current self and your 'other' self as wholly different beings?

yes
hard to think were the same
considering hes a vampire from the joseon era

Didn't that last about 500 years? Surely you have a more specific idea than that.

maybe near the end
i know there were europeans around then
was kidnapped by a english woman

This story keeps getting wilder. Why did she kidnap you?

idk
i had a memory of sitting on a dock mending a net
then i had a memory of some european grabbing me around the throat
and dragging me to her ship
i couldn't break her grip or anything

Quite the mystery. Especially since, and you may correct me if I'm wrong, as a vampire you are stronger than an average human, correct?

i assume so
i dont know yet
i havent gotten anything about that
just speed and the eyesight

Ah. I imagine those actually come in handy at your work, now that I think about it.

well it would be nice to have
but right now i just have the eyesight
makes going outside even tougher tbh
it gets too bright out

I think that makes sense. Vampire's are adverse to sunlight in general, in various interpretations.

if i start bursting into flames
i will have to find a different way to make food

Well you'd find a more efficient way to toast things.

not funny
