Casually glancing over savetheearth...

[britannicide]

You already have one application you're supposed to be finishing, if I remember correctly. Considering your past hesitance about "games", I think it would be best that you get your priorities straight before entertaining the idea of another.

[He's facepalming so hard, really mundane???]

Besides, that place sounds like entirely too much trouble.

[orly? how so?]

...

[narrowing his eyes.]

Don't make me give you a list.

Comments

AHAHAHAHAH. I've been eyeing that place forever

[andnowisee]

It sounds like you should, Brother.

DON'T DO THAT TO ME I HAVE TO FINISH MY BRAVENEWWORLD APP.......

[britannicide]

[Not you too, Nunnally.]

And why do you think that, sister mine?

You know you love me. ♥

[andnowisee]

Because I don't think your mun will listen to you otherwise, will they?

I can't do two games I really can't *sobs*

[britannicide]

I was hoping the sheer impracticality and ridiculousness of the prospect would make itself apparent without my help.

[Annoyance levels are directly proportional to his vocabulary, apparently.]

I once did three at the same time. I'm still not entirely sure how.

[andnowisee]

Sometimes they need a little prodding.

I'm nervous enough about keeping up with just one. OTL B-but castmates.......

[britannicide]

Hm... ["Prodding", eh?

LELOUCH YOU KNOW THAT GEASS DOESN'T WORK PAST THE FOURTH WALL, YOU PUT THAT THING AWAY.]

Perhaps.

I KNOW.

[andnowisee]

Brother.

What are you thinking?

[Because she knows that 'hm'.]

[l_elf]

[Pause, considering...something.]

Readiness evaluation grade: D.

[britannicide]

...

Thank you for putting that so concisely. But for some reason I gather that logic isn't exactly something that's in play here...

[Migraine, incoming.

He appreciates the effort, though. Really.]

[l_elf]

I thought it was fitting enough for the circumstances.

[He's enjoying he's not trapped in any of those cloistered games.]

Thankfully, brief stirrings of temptation are overcome by the natural sloth of starting a new application.

[jet_rose]

Who knows, maybe your mundane will be different and heed your words. Or they will just ignore them and do what they want.

[ex_elude798]

Huh. I thought you were supposed to be more proactive or something.

[Speaking of StE...]

[britannicide]

Proactive about what exactly? [He'd sound more amused by the question if he wasn't so frustrated by the situation at hand.

Oh hi it's not like the mundane's been reading over your and Euphie's apps all night or anything...]

[ex_elude798]

...Maybe it's just the other one.

[So many of this guy he doesn't know, it's confusing. Not that he'll remember anyway.

Oh boy then you know this guy's a ponce I'm sorry.]

[britannicide]

[A pause, and eyebrow raise] ...Thought I was someone else? [If what his mundane was saying about this game was correct then...

He sighs internally. It was one of those things on the list of reasons the game would be troublesome.

Shhh I think it's great, that's part of why I was interested? Stage 0 is one of my favorite things anyway.]

[ex_elude798]

No, I think you're just a different version. I'll never get used to this place.

[Well, essentially, anyway. This place is damned weird.

Oh gosh, glad somebody else likes Stage 0. A very enjoyable read, and I liked these chaps as bickering bitties.]

[britannicide]

I'm sure that makes me much less interesting. Sorry to disappoint. [Whether Suzaku remembers him or not, the sarcastic comments are still second-nature apparently.

Ugh these two were too cute in it, aside from being awfully heartbreaking. I loved what you got to see of them interacting, and the situation surrounding Suzaku killing his father. Real good.]

[ex_elude798]

...Same attitude.

[He should not be surprised]

For what it's worth, Locke's not a bad place. The things that happen there, however, have to be addressed.

[Business is so much easier than interpersonal things.

Yeah, I found it very illuminating. Gave me a stronger feel for not just this guy but that friendship. All that foe-yay makes sense.]

[britannicide]

[with a light smirk] Again, sorry to disappoint.

[Okay, Lelouch, stop being an ass. If that's even possible.]

To be fair, it's not so much the place itself that troubles me... [Just the fourth-wall shenanigans that will take affect on him should the mun decide to send him there.] My mundane, however, seems more interested in the "things that happen there", if you wouldn't mind elaborating. [If there's a cumulative plot post, it's making itself really hard to find. :C

They're both such different people, I don't think they even know how they make it work. These two, honestly. If you haven't read the short story from the Mutuality artbook I highly recommend. It's such a beautiful little piece on their relationship.]

[ex_elude798]

[Not a problem, he's an ass too. He really expects nothing better...even if those iterations bordered on nice for some brief and awkward moments]

You want a summary, or more of a general idea?

[Suzaku has actually gone through the whole shabang not too long ago. Maybe this "Lelouch" guy likes being apprised. And indeed that plot post is in a spot one might not expect, had fun hunting it up. It can be found here ♥

This is very true, part of what makes it compelling I think. And I haven't, is there a good site to look into it on or will Google steer true?]

[britannicide]

[Niceness is an unfortunate side-effect of Lelouchs with no patricidal vendettas. Or supernatural order-giving powers which aid in leading underground terrorist organizations. You know, details.]

A brief summary of the important details would probably be most helpful. [Engage serious business information gathering face. (I would never have found that, bless you. ♥)

Compelling is a good word. Google seems to have solved the problem nicely, if you are so interested in clicking that link. I was so happy to find this, it adds so much to the tone of Zero Requiem/the end of the series that Sunrise didn't bother to address. Though I think you described it in your app quite nicely.]

[ex_elude798]

[This guy would be nice, but no personal growth and Tony Stark for a godfather. At least he has a lot of self-esteem?]

First thing I acknowledged was a guy's mom turning into a monster, and chasing him through the streets. That's the only incident I'm aware of, as far as something of that nature.

Since that time there've been living snake statues chasing people through what I guess you'd call the bad part of town, a strange ringing noise that makes average people zone out, water that induced laughter and supposed recollections...

[He pauses here, because actually...]

There's more.

[So many weird things Lelouch, so many very weird things. And happy to help with links. Speaking of, thanks for providing me with that one. Will hit that up asap, always wanted to see more from that. Glad it turned out okay in my app too, rather like that stage of things even if it inevitably gets real sad real fast]

[britannicide]

...I suppose that could count for a given value of "not a bad place." [At least when compared to thoughtless leaders giving casual orders for mass genocide. So there's that.]

Any theories as to the cause? [Not that any of them seem intrinsically related but if they all began occurring around the same time, that assumption's safe enough.

The mun may DM to pick your brain later if that is alright~ Sleep time now though. @~@;; No problem, it was a lovely gem I found~ And actually you brought up a good point about Lelouch losing his chance to experience Nunnally's gentle world which I hadn't thought of, so kudos. I have to agree, Zero Requiem is probably my favorite portion of the series for many different reasons. Most of which end in tears. Basically these two have such a wonderful, fascinating depth to their relationship and they kill me.]

[ex_elude798]

None of us know what's behind it, although a corporation's got their hands in more than a few of those occurrences.

[Feel free, contact info's in his app too. All good, so get some excellent rest. Gosh, I like how different perceptions give us new things to think about. One of the best parts of fandom. These two are pretty darn great, and it's a fair bit more tragic for that. Less the depth, I don't think it'd be so sad. Don't die though Geass has claimed too many]

[unfearing]

[ Did someone ring? ]

Oh...! Brendan--?

[ But no, on second glance it's not. Elizabeth blushes faintly in embarrassment, smiling apologetically at this troubled young man. ]

My mistake. You look... remarkably like someone I know. But ah, let's see...

I do think you should do what ultimately makes you the most happy. Our situation in Locke can in fact be quite... troublesome. [ She winces just slightly, recalling the other night in the Dead District. ]

But that's not always the case. We do find ways of winding down in the in-between. I'm happy here, at least.

[britannicide]

[oh gosh--

The mistaken recognition gets a frown from him, a somewhat sad one.] From what I understand, that doesn't surprise me. My apologies.

[He looks off uncomfortably.] I won't deny, there are certain facts about the place that could present themselves as advantages. [If cowardly ones, he thinks.] In the end I doubt the decision will come to me, but thank you for the encouragement.

[He has to at least offer her something of a smile in the end. Whether or not she remembers, she's still Euphie to him.]

[unfearing]

Oh, I don't know about that. [ There's a light tease in her voice, and she smiles encouragingly back in his direction. It just seems a natural thing to do, to smile at that weary face and try to get him to look a little less... old. ]

You seem like a very decisive young man to me. I'm sure it'll come to you.
