POST ✦ ( OLD RAZZLE DAZZLE. )

A quick question:

What are the confirmed symptoms for spontaneous combustion?

I remember reading in some books that before some people exploded into flames and died fiery horrible deaths, there were reports of seeing sparks around the person before the combustion occurred.

Is this true or not? I really need to know right now. As in ASAP as in now as in really right now.

I'm no longer giving out sparks or anything so I think I'm fine. For now at least.

[trueend]

um
why were you giving out sparks in the first place

[caelestialis]

I'm not quite sure yet. It just keeps happening for some reason and I don't know when or where it'll occur.

Meaning my best option is to hide in my closet and hope for the best. Obviously.

[trueend]

hiding in your closet doesnt sound safe
what if you set it on FIRE

[caelestialis]

You're right! I can't let my parents' borrowed coats get caught on fire.

[ ainsley. why are your priorities always like this... ]

Give me a second to get out of here and find somewhere better to hide. That isn't near papers or wood. [ which is... actually hard now that she thinks about it...

why did she never get around to getting rid of books?? ]

[trueend]

dont think that should be your biggest worry

[THINK ABOUT THE HOUSE???]

what about cement
does cement burn???

[caelestialis]

Not at all! But there's nothing made of concrete in my apartment that would be suffice to go and hide in.

How about the bathroom? Just in case something does get set on fire then there's at least a lot of access to water.

[trueend]

oooooooh
could sit in the shower
if something catches fire you can just
turn it on!!
i think

[caelestialis]

That's a great idea! I was thinking of just staying near the sink but the shower is much smarter.

Just give me a second to move there. I just realised now how many things I keep in here.

dont drop your phone down the drain
and youll be ok

[caelestialis]

Honestly if I drop my phone down the drain, I think that maybe a sign that this is just not my day.

Or that I shouldn't have a phone if I manage to somehow lose it down such a tiny hole.

[trueend]

think giving out sparks
WAS the sign this is not your day

[caelestialis]

That's a good point but at least they can't get in the way of my texting. (For now and I kind of regret not putting anything wood related here for some reason.)

Dropping my phone down the drain? That'll cut me off from you guys for sure. For a little while. Apparently this app can spring up anywhere for us?

[trueend]

could always buy a new phone if you dropped it
at least??

[They still think adults have infinite money. Bless.]

its true though
it shows up EVERYWHERE
even school computers
and no ones supposed to download stuff to those :T

[caelestialis]

[ sob she thought that too... keep holding on to the myth it's amazing to think of when growing up.

but, to be serious, she's surprised to hear that re: computer schools. ] Really? And the IT staff haven't gotten into a tizzy over that? I once changed the computer wallpaper for a PC in my staff's room and I got scolded for that.

[trueend]

no
its super weird!!!!
tried to show it to one of the teachers one time and she said
there was nothing funny there??
like she couldnt see it

[caelestialis]

Huh! I never realised that others would view it like that. I know others wouldn't find it weird if it was on our phones but not on school computers?

That's definitely weird. One of these weirds I really hope we get a filter or an F.A.Q. of what on earth is going on.
