[ so The Kid had one of his status effects posts today. the usual fun all around, lots of people afflicted with weird changes. on a completely irrelevant note, you haven't seen Steve yet today, have you? usually he's in at least one of his usual haunts, like the library or just out exercising... maybe the garden? have you checked that yet?

because there is someone hiding in a corner here, huddled under one of the trees and looking up at the sunlight in something between joy and disbelief. a very familiar sort of look. ]
