((The soft, muffled shuffling of blankets and bedclothes...a small muttering groan, someone not wanting to get up.))

Why is it morning already...?
All right...

((Fumble, shuffle.))

I remember yesterday only vaguely, like one remembers a dream, or a drunken night out. I thought I was a sultan, living in a palace hung with silk... There were holy men and mad men, flying carpets, genii in lamps, adventurers, dancing girls, the ladies of the court--my court--all around me, all colour, and light, and fire...

But I--((a sigh))--realise now there are more than a few to whom I owe apologies, or perhaps explanations.

To put it simply, you have my sincerest apologies for the...madness the curse brought over me. It was a curse and nothing more. I am terribly sorry.

There's nothing else I can say about it.

((Another groan.))

And I shan't be going out today, that much is certain.

Riff? Riff, where are you?

~~I had a mother--for one day, I had a mother who loved me, who held me with her white hands--~~

[ooc: Aaaaaaaaaaand sultan no more. Having crashed, now with a curse "hangover," extremely embarrassed, he's woken up in his own bed, and, luckily (?) alone. Be nice? ...or, not, that's okay too. Strikeouts are thoughts--you can't hear them.

A huge, huge, huge thank you to everyone who played along with the harem theme yesterday. I hope you had fun. I know I did. I was so glad to revisit this scenario with Cain--the lulz are immense. I hope you had twice as much fun as I did. Thank you all so much! I am now about as tired as Cain |D;;]

Anyone who blames you for the actions of a curse hasn't been here very long.

You were perfect, Cain.

All the same, I'd feel awkward if I didn't say at least something.

I shall always remember you in that garden. That's how I think I'll always think of you.

True... which is why I would still think you're much better off than the rest to do even that. But I wouldn't expect less of a gentleman.

It's all very clear in my mind...

Thank you for giving me the chance to show myself I can be a good mother, if I try. Even if it was unintentional. Tee-hee-- I don't think I made a very strict Sultana though!

And in mine, too, though like a dream.

~~How can I thank you for being my mother?--Would you understand that?--But I do thank you for holding my head on your lap and calling me your son--and saying you loved me--~~

Thank you for your kindness when I was so troubled. You might not have been very strict, but I think you were loved.

Cain...

If it brought you some peace and happiness... then I am glad I could give you some of it in these dark times.

I can't imagine a mother having you as a son and not loving you, the way I felt when I held you yesterday.

It did, thank you.

And I can't imagine you'd need to prove you can be a good mother.

[ooc: Ow... Unintentional Oedipal pain, Megumi ;_;]

Let's hope my daughter thinks so, when I can return to her.

Until then, I always have you.

[ooc; That's ALWAYS painful ;; Hugs for Cain! ]

I'm certain she'll agree, and I hope you'll see her again soon.
