Hello, this is Belladonna! I'm sorry to have missed you on such a lovely day. Please leave a message, and I'll return your call as soon as I can.

[Oh no! That's so much negativity! Reading all that, she decides to respond to his questions first, and then she'll circle back.]

Oh, yes! I'm very serious! I've wanted to perform black magic since I was a little girl!

[You know, feeding all the birds wholesome healthy seed meal as they landed upon her windowsill.]

I'm not particularly keen on violence, and I'd like to be able to be evil without being impolite, but I'd love to weave curses and conjure disasters and bring monsters to life!

[Also:]

I can give you a guitar string, if that would help!

[ghostlocked]

[Hm. That's a disappointing answer, even if it's cute... and naive. Maybe he won't share the whole serial killer thing just yet.]

no worries. i found one. thanks tho. thats sweet of u.

i gotta ask how u can be evil and polite at the same time. curses and disasters and monsters still fuck people up right? how is that diff from violence?

[whichiest]

Oh, good! I'm glad! I really hope that it helps you get into better spirits!

[Whew! A relief! Maybe Harlan's luck is changing!]

I suppose the way I look at it is that it doesn't particularly bother me if people suffer.

[Great! Not that her attitude really matches that viewpoint. She almost obsessively helps people--it's just in her nature. She hates it.]

But I'd never track mud into someone's home, as that would be just terribly rude!

[ghostlocked]

lol. thanks. well see.

[WELL THEN, on second thought.]

hm. i think that makes sense.

[It doesn't, but they're both busted.]

so shit like murder and torture are a-ok in ur book so long as ur nice about it? lol.

i can get behind that.

[whichiest]

You can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs!

[That said, the idea of straight-up murder really isn't her style. Maybe if a spell required human sacrifice, well, that's just the way of things. It's not as if she batted an eye when Mother Bloodworth effectively kidnapped and destroyed the lives of several modern-age princesses.]

[ghostlocked]

im not sure thats super relevant but good to know.

u said ur husband was vile lol. whatd u mean by that?

[whichiest]

Oh, he's really just an awful person who truly deserves to be in Hell!

[Which, of course, is a glowing Belladonna review.]

He goes out of his way to ruin people, and I feel so lucky to have met him.

[ghostlocked]

hes not gonna fuck with u tho right?

[:')]

[whichiest]

How funny! No, of course not! Anyway, if he did it would only be for my benefit, and I'd be quite thankful.

[Her idea of relationships is clearly off, but...]

[ghostlocked]

[Oh, boy. The alarm bells are going off, even for Harlan.]

idk that u can fuck with someone for their benefit. the definition of fucking with someone is screwing them over.

its not my business but it sounds like u should watch urself with this guy.
