Don't people here just get sick of being jerked around by curses? Getting turned into thing or being made to eat people? Having your secrets broadcast?

I've only been here a couple of months and I'm already sick of it.

[Pause, quiet.]

I hate not being able to do anything about it.

I think some of my heroes had to go through worse things than this City. If they could go through what they did, then I should be able to go through whatever the City throws at me!

You might not be able to do anything, but at least you could keep a positive attitude. That could help...

[punchedhitler]

Who are your heroes?

[fanboy-silver.livejournal.com]

My heroes? You probably wouldn't know them. I don't think anyone knows them here. They're more groups of heroes. Teams of heroes. Teams that develop to protect us from the newest invading alien and/or demon army.

[Charlie overhears this and frowns slightly, worrying. She's considering finding Steve and hugging him and, really, how often does she ever consider hugging anyone?]

[Baw, Charlie]

Trust me, most of us know exactly how you feel.

Thank the spirits there weren't any other turians around for that cannibalism curse.

[punchedhitler]

Not...human, then?

[officer-garrus.livejournal.com]

No, alien.

[cry-reaper.livejournal.com]

No one does, but sooner or later you... adjust.

[punchedhitler]

I don't know if I like the idea of that, Mara.

[cry-reaper.livejournal.com]

You think we do? But we make accommodation, we try and cope.

[team_sociopath]

I dunno, you can kinda get by.

[punchedhitler]

Why does everyone here just get by?

[team_sociopath]

Well, no one's managed to break out yet, so there aren't a lot of options. At least if you're not cursed you can like, do some damage control.

It's not the same though.

[dillonrockstar.livejournal.com]

I've been here less time than that, haven't been cursed and I'm still sick of 'em.

[punchedhitler]

At all?

[dillonrockstar.livejournal.com]

Not so far, nah. Just watched people get cursed.

[firstaid]

I don't believe anyone enjoys being victim of these curses, but I believe we must do our best to not effect us terribly in the aftermath.

[punchedhitler]

That's a nice perspective.

But I don't like watching people get jerked around.

[closetpervert]

Indeed. That feeling lays with the majority of us. Unfortunately, one must adjust in order to survive.

[punchedhitler]

You don't think we can survive otherwise?

[i-archmagus.livejournal.com]

Such is the way of the gods.

[punchedhitler]

Are they really gods?

[livingmyths.livejournal.com]

It's hard, but you just have to try and do what you can.

And help out where you can too.

[punchedhitler]

I don't feel like that's enough.
