August Event: "I felt just fine yesterday ..."
This month, everyone comes down with a case of any disease of your choice, from hiccups to the common cold to the Black Death.
It's a temporary, nonfatal, noncommunicable affliction. Fantasy ailments (spattergroit, temporal dislocation) are acceptable, provided they are from somewhere (i.e., a disease from an existing canon though not necessarily your own).
Margate is united in self-pity.
The tag is "diseases." Have fun. Or, y'know, something.
