WHAT what you want
WHERE where you want
WHEN Day ""135""

[The rain has cleared, but it appears to have left some people with a case of the sniffles! The magic sniffles. Even if you've never been sick a day in your life, you might not find yourself immune. Then again, maybe you have a terrible immune system and you're fine. I'm not the magic sniffles police.

Symptoms May Include:

- runny nose
- sore throat
- fever
- thinking you're going to cough or sneeze but actually what comes out is A BURST OF THE TRUTH
- waking up in someone else's bed
- joint aches

At least the sketchy pop-up pharmacy at the mall has a special on tissues and nyquil?]

[that's. that's cute.]

No problem. Make sure to get lots of rest.

[grumble grumble]

I am rarely so compromised. This must be a particularly virulent strain.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Yeah, usually pathogens around here are at least slightly supernatural.

[in the tone of faint horror that she always makes statements like that]

But they also usually pass quickly.

[whatischeers]

Are you saying this is... a magic spell?

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

I'm putting a fair amount of effort into not saying it's a magic spell.

[whatischeers]

But it is a magic spell.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

That's probably not an inaccurate way of describing it.

[ughhhhh sniffle]

I haven't been sick like this since I was a child. Groot had a fever scare when he was a toddler, though.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Groot...?

[whatischeers]

Groot. He's a child again, for some reason. But at least he is toilet-trained, this time.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Is he your son...?

[whatischeers]

No. I don't know if he has parents. But we all took a part in raising him, after he died. He's around here somewhere, probably with Rocket.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

...sorry, I didn't quite... follow that.

[whatischeers]

Groot is a sentient tree. He perished protecting us during a battle, but he was able to be replanted, and has been growing ever since.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Well... all right, then. That... makes sense.

[whatischeers]

[sniffle]

I'll introduce you... sometime when I'm not so ill.

[thatsoundsfakebutokay]

Yeah, you should probably go lie down.
