071. Diagnosis

[vicodincrutch]

If you still have the Black Ick, quit your belly aching and make a pathetic distress call. There's a happy ending. There's no "i" in team. With our powers combined we summoned Captain Planet. The day is saved. Is this a victory? I'm going to say no. Why? This wasn't a solution. Abstract problem solving, that's for sure. I'm not happy with it. I'm sure that's not going to stop everyone else involved from brushing their shoulders off. "Good hustle" comments and ass tapping.

For future curses, I suggest that Neilson have a bell or ribbon or something. Or you can, Wilson. That seems more your style.

Pizza is for breakfast, lunch and dinner. This is living.

I made chicken. No spuds and no bacon so you should be thrilled. Do you want a pot?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

No trimmings? What's the occasion? Anticipating another famine?

[eiremagic]

Carrots and onions.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

It's an excellent companion to pizza. I'll take it.

Black Ick? You mean, Geostigma?

[eiremagic]

This cure was shite.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

I know. But everyone's better.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

A disease by any other name would still be just as infectious and frustrating.

[eiremagic]

Well, I've been cooking for days.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Are tacos on the menu? Caspian needs some for tomorrow. It's a holiday for his people.

[eiremagic]

I can learn. I didn't know that it was a holiday tomorrow.

[elevatorwarrior]

That's becau- What the hell does that even mean?

[dr_conscience]

Yeah, I'm not wearing a bell, or a ribbon... or any combination thereof.

I take it the magical contribution wasn't to your liking?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

We could call the Geostigma the Happy Sunshine Syndrome and it wouldn't change anything about it.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

How about a t-shirt that says "I'm the Boss" to up the ante?

That's not a cure. That's deux ex machina.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah. It's a big one.

[eiremagic]

Should I take him something?

[dr_conscience]

Or you could spare a few moments to talk to either of us and figure out which one it was with, I'm sure, alarming speed.

It's just never any fun when someone shows you the picture before you've finished your puzzle, is it?

It doesn't matter that the people who were ill are now better, or that no one else will be infected?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Tacos and a great big hat. He'll know what to do from there.

[eiremagic]

Huh, okay.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

When it takes a chant and a wand wave, what do we have to worry about?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

You are similar, you know, in selective mannerisms.

You feel better with the rest of the victims? That is until another fabricated illness comes along. But that's okay, we've made it this far.

[as_damaged]

Worried about obsolescence?

[hearttohart.livejournal.com]

True, though Black Ick really could cover anything, considering all sorts of people come here from different worlds, right?
