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...

[gravitywell]

[ yeah wow martel how nerdy.. ! ]

Yeah! I mean, I guess that's exactly what I've been working towards at home, but at least I didn't have to worry about faction divides..

[ though lbr here it's not like tales isn't full of big fat traitors anyway. ]

But we'll see, I guess! I'll just have to make the best of it.

[loving_goddess]

You will be in my thoughts, even if I can't be there to help. And who knows? If my mundane's plans go through, you may befriend one of the others in here with me.

[Or make bitter enemies but she won't mention that possibility.]

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.

[gravitywell]

.. y-yeah, maybe!

[ alas he's already considered that possibility.. EVERYONE ENEMIES.. ]

Or if not, she might see you around again, anyway! With another one of her, uh.. muses. [ wow it's really weird to say that..

.. but by that he means HI HELLO YOU TAGGED MY KRATOS TOO LIKE A WEEK OR TWO GO OR SOMETHING ]

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?

[wilder]

[OH....WHAT ABOUT TOKEN COMIC RELIEF CHARACTER?]

[And yes, mine is an evil laugh mwhahaha]

Blue, huh? I can see that...

[Figures...with his magic and well, blue color scheme. But it's not his]

Mine sounds like she's dead set on red flight. [pointedly he eyes one of his locks of hair] It's a complete mystery why.

[gravitywell]

[ YOU'RE REACHING....

also, ice and stuff! which is apparently his alignment, or something, thanks tos2. ]

Oh. Well they're.. not so bad, right? I mean, it could be worse - the black flight sounds like pretty bad news..

[ WHAT SUPERFICIAL REASONS alas.. but hey he'll fit right in now won't he. ]

[wilder]

[YEAH..I GOT NOTHING.]

They sure do. Unfortunately I don't think I'm diabolical enough to make it far in Blackflight.

But no! Red's sounding pretty good. I get a bed, fire- and I hear the leader's a real beauty in her humanoid form! ♥

[Because that is what matters. AND SHH there are other reasons....but yes, one look at that hair and no one will ever question if he's in the fight sanctum.]

[gravitywell]

[ you did try.. ]

Probably not. [ even though he doesn't understand your canonpoint.. err.. ]

.. but I'm not really sure that's what you should be focusing on, here ..

[ zelos YOUR PRIORITIES.. ]

Some things never change.

[wilder]

What?

[HE HAS THE BEST PRIORITIES]

I'm trying to look on the bright side here! You're just jealous that you're gonna be sleeping on ice.
