8th Design [accidental voice]

[threadthefire]

[There's the sound of slight chaos as Cinna's voice, slightly strained, comes over the Network.]

No, madam, I assure you it isn't ninety, eighty, seventy, sixty, fifty, forty, thirty, twenty, ten or even five percent off. And it most certainly isn't two for one.

Don't you know what day this is?

I believe it's Saturday, madam.

You're a right perfect Grinch aren't you?

Madam, I-

A horrible, terrible, awful, anti-Christmas, Grinch!

Madam, please, calm-

[SMACK!] GRINCH!

[There's the sound of someone stomping off and a pause before Cinna speaks again. You can almost hear him rubbing his wounded cheek.]

What kind of curse is this?


[ooc: Cinna, completely uncursed has been overrun today with people asking about sales, deals and giveaways and he is CONFUSED. Also, I couldn't resist - what hiatus?]

I'd be careful, if I were you. The public seems more than a little vicious today.

... please tell me you don't want to press charges against that woman because if you do, we might not have space in the jail.

[ooc: There's a thread (http://sings4dragons.livejournal.com/63021.html?view=1788717#t1788717) Cinna might be interested in!]

Mmm, it's not a curse, actually. It's simply the continuation of the holiday.

I don't know what kind of curse this is.

THIS IS A PLACEHOLDER BRB

Be careful, some of the girls hit.

...I wonder what a Grinch is. I guess it's not nice...

Wow, people are being pretty aggressive. Don't you always hate that when you go shopping? Salespeople who won't leave you alone about this product that comes with that performance plan and so on and so forth?

They modeled the curse after an American tradition. The day after Thanksgiving, stores sell everything ridiculously cheap. And people are ridiculously eager.

It's a little exaggerated here.

[Lucy is one of those shoppers. I'm so terribly sorry, Cinna.]

If I take this [She holds up a gorgeous gauzy gown] And those [Points to a pair of silvery boots] Can I get the matching bag for at least half off. Seriously. You've got to make this worth winning.
