Hold on, I'm crafting a curse. I'm trying to figure out what rhymes with turn all your bones into noodles, but the best I can come up with is hope it hurts oodles and oodles.
Not in the slightest, they just make Jester laugh.
[Jester would really like the noodles/oodles rhyme though.]
Don't even have to speak it in the Infernal, it's just more fun that way. Sometimes I just make nonsense gargling noises? Really confuses the hells out of people.
How disappointing. Mind you, cursing people at all is not even something I do. There are a few techniques that might - technically be qualified as such, but they are mostly silly parlour tricks.
The Sewn Tongue is useful. It is a precise sort of stitching that prevents the speaker from using particular words, or spilling secrets. There are a whole number of ones that are only meant to be embarrassing or painful. The Agony of the Osseum Serum is one such example. It just makes your bones slowly and painfully liquify. Blood curses are always in fashion, but I don't care for them - it's too easy to get some of the caster's blood and undo all the effort.
All of these are just - rote memorizations of techniques that are effective, rather than an understanding of the principles behind them. If you understand the principles well enough, you don't need to memorize how to do any of this.
You'll have to teach me some! I love parlour tricks. Can't say I'd do very will with principles though, not really my style. I'll just leave that to you.
Bone Hurting Potion. [She rolls her eyes. But fine.] I'll write you down the instructions.
[Grabbing a piece of paper and writing in a messy cursive. It's like a basic recipe, but in the middle it has an instruction 'if he asks you to read this for you, don't do it.']

You're pouting. Did I hurt you that badly?

[She mostly sounds curious.]
I should take notes on what's expected. People keep acting like I can put "curses" on them here, and I'd like to maintain that.

[Hm, though.]
What do you do? These parlor tricks?
