[ stop let him not be a sheep!! but it's fine, he just kind of scoffs. ]
That's because people can be assholes. [ he just pauses almost irritably about that and sighs out loud. ] Whatever, fine, that one I don't mind saying.
okay, he takes a minute and just. dredges up some fucking empathy from the bottom of the barrel here. completely has to sit there and scrap up the crusted empathy bits from the deepest well he has. but. ]
It's...[ the laughing takes a little to get under control, but when he does now he just looks a little peeved and also a little thoughtful. ] I guess there are worse things. And if I don't explain what I think it is, I doubt anyone will really question me for saying some things.
[ even though the tone very much says "no i would love to keep my thoughts inside my brain actually." ]
We haven't figured out a way to break these things anyway, have we?
Don't regret it. [ he's not taking it, but that's because he's immensely curious suddenly. like to the point two cat ears immediately sprout, swiveling with interest. ] Where did you get that?
Everyone's luck with that stupid thing is way better than mine. [ this is insane. but...he considers this. ] Two questions for you. Is it for just one effect? And what would I owe you for it?
`Break a curse of any type and length, and prevent a new curse from being bestowed upon the uncursed for an hour after initial consumption of the Panacea.`Seems as if it's one.
One's better than none. [ impressive...and he shrugs. ] My Omegamart stuff's not that good, and the only other thing I have is information. But not everybody values that.
Cut me a deal then. Your panacea so I can at least stop laughing at totally inappropriate times, I answer whatever you're interested in as best as I can.
Sure, but that's if anybody besides you even figures out that's what's going on. [ what if you simply just lie about what your curse does? ] How would anybody know that it isn't that I've been cursed to say the opposite of what I really mean?
It started earlier today, so it'll probably be over tomorrow? The purple thing was only twenty-four hours when I clocked it. I don't plan on talking to that many people for the rest of the day either.
If you begin to see your alternate selves, it is an hour. If you turn into a sheep, it is 6, and if you are forced to experience emotions not your own, it's also 6.
Some range longer. It seems the one that has you believe you are in love is two days.
Think the kissing thing only works on animals? [ dry. he does not wish to know. ] ...there's a gossip-spreading one that lasts 12 hours, I think. By my best estimation, the kid one is also between 6-12 hours.

One time offer, and I'm already beginning to regret it.

[ it was simply a lucky gacha roll. ]
Do you want it or not? I was holding onto it, but I suppose they're hitting me so quickly now there's little point.

[ he will let him have it if he reaches to take it at this point. ]
Though personally I'd get rid of the thoughts spoken aloud, myself.

Why the hell is the love one so long...?
