i just died in your arms 2nite.

Stupid games with their stupid rules about stupid free will...

What is this, huh? I don't have time for some dumb game about my feelings! Why do you want to see some fifteen year old kid running around talking about his problems?! 'Cause that sounds pretty freaky to me!

I may not know much about this whole "dreamwidth" thing, but it sounds like a big stupid con! Only cheapskates and liars would go around pretending to be people they're not. So what's your angle, huh? Is this how you get your kicks!? You're such a fucking sicko!

...

So are we gonna fight or not?

...I suppose I should take this time to introduce you to the merits of precautionary pacifism, shouldn't I?

[shonenhero]

C'mon, Kurama, when has pacifism ever solved anything?

[leftinred]

I was hoping for a first time in your career.

[shonenhero]

Yeah? Well, why change a winning formula?

[leftinred]

My bad entirely. Let's... let's skip to the pummelling.

Although I imagine Koenma wouldn't forgive me for overlooking to remind you humans have... different capacities for pain. Do hold back. A little.

[shonenhero]

I would, if I could find the freaking guy. He's hiding around here somewhere. Can't go too far, or I turn back into a cartoon, huh?! YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT! YOU HEAR ME? I KNOW HOW THIS WORKS!

...Yeah, yeah, I'll be careful. No busted arteries, and I'll only cause fractures, no breaks. Scout's honor.

[leftinred]

I suppose it would be best to think of it as... Territory.

[santacabezaqueen]

Give it up, kid. My whining before only delayed the inevitable.

[shonenhero]

Yeah, yeah, we get it, you're boring.

[santacabezaqueen]

No, I just happen to use my brain. Which is more than I can say for a boy who consistently gets below 20% on his tests.

[shonenhero]

Are you in on this too? Tell the big man upstairs to knock it off, okay?! I don't got time for head games!

[santacabezaqueen]

[Sighs]

Such a child. No, I'm not in on anything, merely trying to give you some advice. If you don't want to take it, and wish to continue to act like an arrogant little brat, that's your choice, but you will soon find that fighting your player does very little to help your cause.

[shonenhero]

Typical adult, always talking about how they know it all! Yeah, yeah, everything's pointless, might as well not try, big deal, who cares. If life's like that, I'd rather die and stay dead.

[memorial]

...Are you actually going to fight your player?

[shonenhero]

[Get ready for shouting.]

Yeah, right. Like he'd let me, the big- stinking- coward!

THAT'S RIGHT. YOU HEAR ME? I'M CALLING YOU A FREAKING COWARD! GET DOWN HERE! AND FIGHT ME! LIKE A MAN!

RAAAAUGH!

Well, that didn't work...

[memorial]

[Whoa, ok. That stuns her a little, but she ends up chuckling softly.]

I don't think the place you were talking about earlier sounds that bad. Well, at least most of the time.

[shonenhero]

The feelings game? Look, pal, I seen my fair share of games, and all of 'em stink. At least I don't have to worry about dying this time. Really... kills the suspense.

[memorial]

...Was that supposed to be a pun?

[shonenhero]

...Haha! Nice one! Here, how about... "In the divorce, she got a new..." Wait, that doesn't work... "In the marriage, she got a new name and a dress!"

[imanapexpredator]

I don't think they'd want to fight people who could probably kill them.

[shonenhero]

Total freaking cowards shouldn't be in charge of what I say and do, if you ask me. What's next, you gonna watch where I sleep, you jerk? WELL?!

[imanapexpredator]

[Recoiling a little at all the yelling. Jesus man, chiiill.]

...You sleep in their heads so...don't they already do that, technically?

[W-weak chuckle. He was telling a joke but. It's kind of true?]

[shonenhero]

Do they? I was never good at this philosophy stuff. Am I gonna wake up as a bug next?

[imanapexpredator]

[Neither is he, to be honest. Philosophy is his cousin's thing.]

I don't...I mean, I guess they could make that happen?

[Wait no he doesn't want to start thinking about that now.]

What does that even have to do with anything?

[shonenhero]

I dunno, I watched a late night TV show like that once. Y'know, when you fall asleep on the couch, and you wake up and it's late night horror programs as far as the eye can see...
