[Liz. Office chair. Bookcase.]

Hey guys...sorry D&D was such a bust last week. I honestly couldn't tell you what I was thinking letting Servo DM.

[She shrugs. As she does there is a glint as her hand passes under a nearby work light.]

But I--[she stops, doing a double take. She holds her hand under the light again, and sure enough there is a shimmer of glitter, which she finds is also up her arm and on her other hand.

There is a pause, then her hand catches her forehead in a facepalm.] You can not be serious.

OHMYGOSH look at you! You're so GLITTERY! Do it again do it again do it again!

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

[Nnnnnnooooot thrilled.]

Looks like it's just in direct light.

[sailorlaughter.livejournal.com]

Are you gonna sparkle while you walk now? That's gonna be so cooooool! Where did you get it?

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

I...have no idea.

[paidinlaughs.livejournal.com]

Some sort of illness passing around?

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

Why? Are you getting it too?

[paidinlaughs.livejournal.com]

No, not yet, at the very least.

[keeperonenya.livejournal.com]

That cannot be natural.

[Galadriel waves her own hand under a nearby desklight. Sure enough, her skin sparkles slightly. Her eyes go wide at this.]

How in the world did that happen?

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

You too?

[She frowns a moment.] I'm starting to suspect it's no coincidence.

[keeperonenya.livejournal.com]

How so?

[game-over-pal.livejournal.com]

What's with that. That ain't contagious, is it?

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

Blech, feathers and sparkles? That's a fashion disaster right there.

...I hope it is contagious.

[game-over-pal.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you just stay in your happy little corner of the satellite, M'kay?

[iamaman-punch.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's exactly what you think it is.

By the way, "skin of a killer" jokes? Really don't go down well here. Just saying.

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

[Not moving from the facepalm position.] Oh God...

If I start stalking you, shoot me.

...What did you do this time?

[iamaman-punch.livejournal.com]

Only if you do the same for me.

I made a "skin of a killer" joke. It didn't go down well.

[verygassy.livejournal.com]

Naaah, it's ok. Everyone knows for next time, right?

[She doesn't seem particularly upset about the sparkles.]

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

Yeah. And I think we can all agree Servo's never DMing ever again.

[verygassy.livejournal.com]

Nope!

In fact we should edit all of the rulebooks to make sure that's in there.

[itsjustthebots.livejournal.com]

What're you talking about? I thought it went well until everyone just gave up and left.

[And then Tom moves more into the light, and notices he's also sparkly!]

Woooow, check it out! It's a glitter wonderland! WEEEEEEEEE! [He starts spinning around]

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

I think you and we were playing entirely different games, Servo.

[itsjustthebots.livejournal.com]

Well I was playing Dungeons and Dragons! I dunno about you. [He is still spinning around.]

[halfdarkened.livejournal.com]

...You too? [Oh boy, he looks thrilled.]

[punsofiron.livejournal.com]

Yyyyyup.

[halfdarkened.livejournal.com]

What's with this stuff? I've showered twice and it won't come off.
