[corrinesbell]

I dunno. Stuff that's happened here.

[Action]

[pimpinwings.livejournal.com]

No good. I feel like I'm gonna be sick.

[Action]

[pimpinwings.livejournal.com]

Feh. Don't worry about it then.

You gonna puke?

[corrinesbell]

[shakes her head. This happened with Regal too and it went away as soon as she managed to think of something else. Then he knocked her out So she moves away from the counter but stumbles, like she's gonna pass out]

[corrinesbell]

[Action]

[pimpinwings.livejournal.com]

You sure?

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

Yeah. ...I-I think. Guess I'm stuck remembering slow.

[Action]

[pimpinwings.livejournal.com]

Eh, as long as you keep remembering stuff.

The more I force it the worse I feel.
