∞ 99: Horoscopes [action]

[Aquarius:
- Your next shower will be interrupted by a large mildly poisonous insect.
- Your sudden sweet tooth is probably a sign of impending doom.
- Duck!
- Learn to drive, jerk!

Albert had raised a brow when he had seen the horoscope predictions. There were, of course, mentions of the horoscopes and comments over the journals that the predictions were coming true. He's understandably somewhat wary when he takes his shower that day -- especially when the prediction comes true and he finds the hand-sized insect skittering around his feet. He jumps out of the shower.

The insect jumps out with him. And makes a beeline for the crack underneath the bathroom door.

...Wonderful.

After that experience, he finds himself heading to the plaza to visit ... the bakery. Anyone seeing him around the plaza or in the bakery will discover that he is being followed around by a male mallard duck -- everywhere. Maybe it has something to do with the prediction, or the fact that Albert seems to have taken to eating a lot of pastries. Either way, he is being followed by a duck. Everywhere.

Said mallard duck is still following him as he heads down to the battle dome -- because there is no other place that he can think of where he can cure this sudden need to learn how to drive. He may just spend the entire day there, which is entirely strange for him no matter what day it is.]

All the time. ...I wanna tell people about...y'know, that stuff that happened, when I was a kid...and make it up to them.

[Albert, do you hear this shift in her voice?]

And there's...a few people that I keep wanting to say other stuff to.

That completely depends on who the person is. ...Like you, Albert.

[There's that infernal blushing again. No wonder she turns into a drinker by the end of the week.]

Y-Yeah. [Enough of a pause that he might think she won't say it after all] I mean, it was a...a while ago, but I-

[At least the horoscope's condition means she's able to stop herself before getting too far]
