regarding his reserve at warforged

[gravitywell]

You've got to be kidding me! What are you, a sadist?

I mean sure, I'm glad you're taking me somewhere and everything, but all that.. I'm kind of sick of fighting, you know. Haven't I earned a break? And what if the others join! We'll probably end up fighting each other and..

-- well yeah, it sounds like a pretty cool place, and there's dragons and magic and everything, but..

Isn't there somewhere, you know, a little nicer? Without any more fighting? I don't ever want to have to hurt my friends!

This... is remarkably cruel.

My mundane is intimately familiar with the world of Azeroth, and I can tell you it is no place for you, Genis. Is there no way to convince your mun to change their mind?

[gravitywell]

[ o-oh.. goddess lady.. sort of.. ]

Ah - um.

[ okay kid come on PULL IT TOGETHER ]

-- yeah, my mun is too, which is mostly why she's so excited. But.. I don't think there's any way to make her change her mind. It's either this place, or somewhere even worse..

[loving_goddess]

[C'mon, Genis. Just think of her as your BFF's Big Sis.]

Worse? ... I see, it's between battle and horror, isn't it? Not that the first doesn't lend itself all too well to the second.

[gravitywell]

[ EASIER SAID THAN DONE TBH... ]

It's - yeah, that's pretty much it. Man, why did I have to get stuck with a weird mun? Why couldn't I have a nice normal one, that likes nice normal things?

[loving_goddess]

Sadly, I think ones like yours outweigh the others.

I would offer help, but I'm afraid my mun no longer puts me in "games". They have made a reserve, but not with anyone you would know.

[gravitywell]

Really? Wow, what's wrong with these people?

[ tell us how you really feel, genis. ]

That's too bad, but I guess.. well, maybe it's for the better, anyway.

[loving_goddess]

They are... bored. And boredom combined with the level of control they have over our lives is a terrible combination.

[Pain is fun!]

You say this out of concern, don't you? Sweet of you, but I think your friends would prefer the danger if it meant being with you, surely...

[gravitywell]

I guess so..

[ but wow he isn't buying it, that seems like a pretty poor excuse, in his book. pain is totally fun though genis just doesn't get it ]

I -- well, I dunno. I hope not. It's bad enough that I'm going, I don't really want any of the rest of them going with me. Especially if we'll have to fight each other..

[loving_goddess]

[Power corrupts and idle hands are demons' playthings, Genis. That's a bad pair of cliche sayings to combine.]

Ah, yes, the different allegiances. But surely there must be a way to work around that? We all know a little bit about trying to forge peace between different sides, after all...

Sorry this is late!!

[wilder]

Oh hey look, the Squirt's coming too.

This just gets better and better.

no problem!! i was out all day anyway sob.. sorry sorry

[gravitywell]

Hey, it's not like I'm all that thrilled about it either, you know.

it's all good!

[wilder]

I'd sure hope not.

Ugh- If it's just the two of us, does this mean I have to watch you?

[gravitywell]

[ RUDE ]

You really think I'd want you to watch out for me?

[ .. ]

.. besides, who even knows what sides we'll end up on.

[wilder]

[ YOU'RE RUDE TOO BRAT ]

Good to see you're a brat as always!

[He scoffs some]

What, are you saying you'd fight me if we wind up in different flights? [Wouldn't...be the first time but shh]

[gravitywell]

[ AT LEAST HE'S STILL A KID WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE MANCHILD

!!! ]

I'm not --

[ .. err. ouch!! he's from the good end timeline okay gosh, wow look at his little face fall. ]

.. well, um - no! I mean, I wouldn't want to..

[wilder]

[UH, DOES ANGSTY BACKSTORY WORK AS AN EXCUSE?]

[He watches the kid's reaction to see if there's recognition to that situation. Since ha, guess what timeline he's from. Not that he's going to mention it right now, since oh yeah, brat or not he's still a kid.]

Heh, that's nice to know.

[He sounds blase about it, even if it's true]

Well, before we start jumping to any conclusions- has your mun mentioned any potential flights for ya? Surely they've been thinking on that, right?

[gravitywell]

[ ... NO. NO IT DOESN'T.

also you are a terrible horrible person for this canon point HOW SAD... ]

Oh!

[ but genis is summarily distracted! ]

Yeah! I think she'll be aiming for the blue flight, for me, since it's so involved with magic! [ it's where all the ravenclaws go ] What about you?

[axwielding]

You will have to fight your friends?

[gravitywell]

[ o-oh, presea... /// ]

Um -

.. well, I hope not, but .. I really don't know for sure.

[axwielding]

That's terrible. You should never have to do that.

[gravitywell]

.. I know. But there's nothing I can do about it! The mun's pretty dead set on going.

[axwielding]

I see. You will be fine, Genis. You're strong in heart.

[gravitywell]

Y-you think so..?

-- I mean, y-yeah! Yeah, of course I'll be fine! I'll just.. have to find a way.

[axwielding]

Yes. But be careful. It sounds... dangerous.

[gravitywell]

I will. I'll be fine! I'll definitely be fine.

[ HE'S JUST TALKIN' BIG.. ]

But what about you? Are you going anywhere, Presea?
