[ Though directly addressing the network isn't her strong point, Jasmine appears on the feed today to try and get over her awkwardness towards doing so. She starts off a little quiet, however. ]

Good day, Asgard. It's me...Jasmine...again. Um, well...

[ She straightens up and looks directly into the camera. This has been getting easier recently. ]

I have two questions to ask. One is more serious than the other. So I'd like to do that first...

One. The curses affecting the city: does anyone remember them all? And if so, what order they were in, and how long they lasted? Also, some of them were definitely more wide-ranging, so we'd have to chart the severity...oh, I ask because mapping out all of the city-wide curses might help us predict when the next one occurs. It's just a thought.

[ She seems lost in thought for a moment, before almost shaking herself out of it and taking on a more cheerful tone. ]

And two...would anyone be interested in dinner or lunch? As a group, my treat. But, ah, not dozens and dozens of people! A reasonable size. I think we need it after these recent curses and body-switches. If you're interested, please let me know. Okay then...thank you.

[What's that you say? Lunch?]

what all kind of lunch are you thinkin my sister?

It's funny you should mention that - my friend Nakama and I were talking about a kind of census for curses to do the same thing. I was going to bring it up at Keine's forum, when that happens.

[ Talking about free food is all it takes for Karuta to talk to a random stranger. ]

..I would like to get food.

[ Of course, even as she says that in her quiet, sleepy voice, she's munching on something or other. ]

Not only when the next one occurs, but what it might be. I haven't checked, but my intuition is that one "category" of curse is followed by another from a different "category." Certainly two things that are similar tend not to follow close upon one another.

Ah, as for a meal, that's a good thought. You know, some social networking sites are made to foster such encounters.

Ho ho... offering to treat the network en mass? You must be getting pretty loaded!

There's one about every two weeks, at the least. And they usually only affect the majority, not everyone.

[ A vibrantly dishevelled girl blinks at you from across the feed. ]

Lunch? Dinner? Food? [ She sounds positively delighted ]

I like food. Food is good. Really good. But then. Anything can be food if you really want it to be...

I'm not sure about predicting the next one but it would be nice to know what else happened. [ To know the level of crazy that happens ]

If you don't already have too many people taking you up on the offer, I'd be up for lunch or dinner!

I'm not sure I can help you with the question about curses... but I would like to take part in the dinner. [ There's also the successful festival to celebrate... ]

[ She switches to text format for ease of replying (and additional lack of hesitation!): ] Nothing too fancy, but enough so that everyone is satisfied. Maybe a diner would be good? I did a little research, and there are some places that serve meat pies and burgers and so on.

You know Nakama? Actually, it was her who made me think about it...during the body-swapping. We were talking about how we should have a curse calendar...

Oh, and I'm also going to Keine's forum!

Rest assured, there'll be enough for everyone... [ She looks down curiously at the girl, who even now looks like she's eating something. ] You must be a great food lover.

That's a good observation. They also vary in severity. So...hmm, for example, the body-swapping was far more wide-ranging than the beard curse. It was also more frightening for the residents. I wonder if there's a connection...

Social networking? Uh...well usually, I'm not the best at being overly social...erm. It's complicated...

I still have leftover money from the hugging competition, and I work two jobs...so while I'm not terribly well-off, I'm pretty comfortable.

[ Ah...it's him. Yes, she recognises him. ]

There are always those who are fortunate enough to be passed over...but some, like my friend Nakama, tend to be affected no matter what. It's kind of hard to understand the reasoning.

[ what on earth... ]

Anything? N...not really. I mean, you can't eat some things, surely.

Right. I haven't been here for very long, at least compared to some of the others...but...it'd be useful to know what curses we've missed. I was told that so far, none of them have repeated.

That's fine with me. Once everyone who wants to come along has replied, I'll set a date and time and affix it to this post. I was thinking...maybe a couple of days away?

Of course. I'd like all my friends to attend. I'm sure it won't get too rowdy. [ Oh right...she guesses she considers Hanako her friend now! ]

What kind of food? [ She's eating pretzels at the moment, finishing her question by munching on another one. ]

I haven't decided yet, but it should be something most people would like. A diner-like restaurant...with burgers, salads, and milkshakes. Does that sound alright? [ She gazes at pretzel girl with a small pleading look. ]

Yeah - we've been friends for a little while. She's really nice. I'm not surprised she mentioned it to you, in that case, and I really do think it would be useful.

I'm glad to know more people are going to the forum too. Keine's working really hard to help everyone, so, I want to see her get a lot of support.

My name is Hisao, by the way. I think I've seen you around in passing, but never stopped to introduce myself.

[ The word 'milkshake' seems to catch her attention as she stops chewing for a few moments, and her eyes open just slightly more than usual. ]

...That sounds good.

[ he remembered her too- figured it would be best to help her out, of course. ] It might depend on the person. It's only affected me once.
