New Muse - Voice testing - Homeless

[deadly_belladonna]

While I am humbled at your desire to select me as a 'muse', or so you call it, I'm afraid I have to voice a bit of protest in situations you're placing me in. Far be it from me to really care too much for some, but there are some that are just ridiculous.

A bad pickup line? Those things only happen in cliche books I have them to prove it.

Wasn't there more pressing matters to attend to back home, anyways? A tournament is coming up and The White Fang are clearly up to shifty things.

Just remember that.

Aw, c'mon, what's wrong with a bad pickup line or two?

[deadly_belladonna]

Other than the emphasis on 'bad'? They're just downright ridiculous.

[fierce_marauder]

What, you don't think they're fun? Not even a little? Surely they've gotta' bring a tiny smile to your face.

[deadly_belladonna]

[Gives a bit of a blank stare at him coupling with a slow blink.]

I've never personally experienced such a thing but I'm sure they're probably not that fun?

[fierce_marauder]

[ This one's a tough cookie! ]

Alright, how about we try some, then?

[deadly_belladonna]

[A small sigh and folds her arms across her chest.]

If you must. Go right ahead.

[fierce_marauder]

Great!

[ Pause. ]

But first -- weird question, I know, but d'you happen to have any raisins?

[deadly_belladonna]

[Eyebrows arch, the bow on her head giving a small twitch.]

Very weird I must say.

Um, afraid I don't keep raisins on me.

[fierce_marauder]

Huh. Damn.

... How about a date instead?

[deadly_belladonna]

I uh, I don't think I've ever tried a date before?

[fierce_marauder]

[ That catches him off-guard, but he's trying to roll with the punches here. ]

Well, how about we try one together?

[deadly_belladonna]

What's the catch? I let you tell horrible pick up lines and jokes the entire time?

As fun as that sounds, I'd hate to punch you so short of our meeting.

[fierce_marauder]

Hey, I'm a guy who can handle a bit of abuse, y'know? I'm into it if you are.

[deadly_belladonna]

[Blinks, a little taken back but can't help and give a smirk.]

I guess you were right. That was a little fun.

[fierce_marauder]

See? You're gonna' be fine!

... 'n I've got you pegged as a definitely for being into that. Just saying.

[deadly_belladonna]

W-What?

How would you even figure something like that?!

[fierce_marauder]

Just a hunch.

Getting flustered? Am I close? It's always the quiet, sensible ones.

[deadly_belladonna]

Now that is just stereotyping. And I refuse to answer such questions on grounds that they're mine to know and no one elses so there.

[ruby_roses]

You obviously haven't heard some of Yang's earlier pickup lines. They were... pretty bad.

[deadly_belladonna]

I can only imagine. At least she would be a little more clever than anything I could attempt.

What was one of the worst you've heard, Ruby?

[ruby_roses]

Oh, I don't know, I have faith in your imagination!

[Have a big grin.]

Oh sheesh... I think the worst was something like "Are your legs tired? 'Cause you've been running through my mind all day" or something.

[deadly_belladonna]

[Stares at her, mulling that over in her mind. Like, did she really hear that right? Yang, how could you.]

I never thought a pickup line could physically pain me like that.

[ruby_roses]

[Ruby just giggles a bit.]

Don't ever tell her I said that. She'd kill me. Though, admittedly that was YEARS ago.

[deadly_belladonna]

[Offers a small smirk.]

Deal. It'll be our little secret then.

[ballisticfists]

HEY! I tak offense to that! My pickup lines are awesome. This is Yang you're talking about, Master of the Smooth.

[ruby_roses]

YANG!

[Ruby's just going to do a Scooby-Doo jump into Blake's arms.]

Y-yeah! Now... just... a couple years ago when you were still just... talking to boys... I'm... just gonna stop talking now...

[ruby_roses]

Good. I'd hate to be called crater face because she hit me so hard.

[ballisticfists]

[Hello sis, heard u were talkin' shit.]

I thought we decided to never speak of that again, Ruby? I think someone is asking for...noogies!

[deadly_belladonna]

[Always there to give her a silent joy of familiarity. Shaking her head with a small smirk, she folds her arms across her chest.]

It hurt but, there are indeed always worse. The kind that give you second hand embarrassment. Those might be the worst.

[alittlebitfiery]

Aw come on Blake, there's nothing more hilarious than a boy trying to use a bad pick up line on you.

[deadly_belladonna]

One asked me for Raisins. I'm afraid I did not understand it one bit.

Some are just so physically painful though. I take it you've had some thrown your way, Yang?

[alittlebitfiery]

...Raisins. [Uhm.] I don't think I've heard that one.

But yeah, sure. You can't walk through a club without getting at least one or two tossed at you. And as Ruby up there spilled, I've even used a few myself. Sometimes they're too funny not to use.
