Brand spanking new muse, voicetesting so hard

[loveandlanguish]

I must say, dear lady, you've had some messed up character ideas in your day, but this might take the cake. Seriously, I'm considering calling your therapist right now on your behalf, because this is just not healthy.

What, you don't have a therapist? Ah, that'd be your problem there.



Not that I'm trying to change your mind for you or anything, because so far all the ideas you've had about where to send me are brilliant. Lots of people things to do. Mortals to muck about with. A wife to avoid. All my favourite pastimes, really.


All I'm saying is, I'm pretty weird. As far as character ideas go. Not complaining, just putting it out there. Admitting you have a problem is the first step blah blah everything and all that.

Now tell me more about these 'sex games'...



Sincerely,

O. Baron

Probably the smarter choice. You only have so many brain cells, after all.

[just_displaced]

Yeah, and I'd like to keep the couple brain cells I do have. I know not everyone feels the same way.

[loveandlanguish]

Some people find more enjoyment in the destruction of them. It really is a joy to behold.

[Just don't ask him how magic mushrooms came to be. It was a long and boring night, okay.]

[just_displaced]

I mean, I can't disagree with that. People getting high can be pretty funny to watch. Except when they start doing really stupid stuff. Because then if you're the only sober one in the room, you have to stop them.

[loveandlanguish]

Why would you ever do a thing like that?

[just_displaced]

Well, I don't, if it's just minor stupid stuff. But when it's the kind of stupid stuff that could endanger their lives, I feel like I've got a responsibility to prevent them from falling out the window, or something.

[loveandlanguish]

But that's just when things start becoming interesting.

[just_displaced]

Falling out the window usually results in death or serious injury, though. And I don't really find that interesting. I mean, maybe it's interesting, but it's not entertaining.

[loveandlanguish]

You mortals are so squeamish. You must learn to loosen up a little.

[just_displaced]

Yeah, but see, if loosening up results in death, most of us aren't too interested in that.

[loveandlanguish]

It must be so difficult living with that as a constant threat. Seems like a barrier to a lot of fun.

[just_displaced]

Yeah, it kind of is. You have to spend a lot of time thinking about whether your bad decisions're likely to get you killed. It takes some of the fun out of being spontaneous. That's why I'm not.

[loveandlanguish]

Not even a little?

[just_displaced]

Once or twice. But it's always turned out poorly.

[loveandlanguish]

It can't always turn out poorly. Here, let me show you.

[And now Oberon is chucking a rock at your head.]

Duck!

[just_displaced]

Why the fuck are you...

[Okay, less asking questions, more ducking out of the way of that rock.]

What was that for?

[loveandlanguish]

There! You reacted spontaneously and it was to your benefit!

You're welcome.

[just_displaced]

That's kind of different. I mean, that's...

[He shakes his head.]

Okay, okay, I take your point.

[loveandlanguish]

Any other spontaneous acts I can help you with while I'm here?

[just_displaced]

Um. No. I don't think so. I mean... no.

[Oh hey. Turning red again. Whoops.]

I think throwing a rock at my head was definitely... uh... enough. And definitely educational. I guess.

[loveandlanguish]

Your complexion is going naturally pink-hued again.

[just_displaced]

That's, um...

[Think of a good excuse! C'mon, you can do this, Ginsberg.]

... unrelated to the topic at hand. I just thought of something really embarrassing.

[loveandlanguish]

Oh yes? If it's completely unrelated, I'm certain you wouldn't mind sharing.

[just_displaced]

It just had to do with beards. You know, sometimes you just sit around thinking about facial hair.

[Yes. Completely unrelated.]

[loveandlanguish]

You do seem rather fixated.


You are certainly welcome to touch it, if that's what you desire.
