Oblina: everyone has a bad scare now and then.
Ickis: Don't let it get you down, oblina. It's not that you're a bad scarer. It's just that you're cursed! I'm sure you'll get used to it.
Oblina: Well, there is nothing to get used to. What really happened here? Nothing! But a few minuscule coincidences. And one less-than-perfect scare. Hardly reason enough to believe In some ridiculous curse.
