impossible castmate wishes

[the_first_light]

No, I don't want my other friends here. It's literally hell, Mundane! It's bad enough Quentin got dragged along with me and half the teachers are already here, without any of my classmates turning up. I mean, it would be bad for all of them, especially the ones who haven't even done anything, but you want Idie to come. And I don't want Idie thinking she's a monster, okay?

Yes, it was pretty amazing the way a lot of my friends stood up for me, even now they know about... that. And I miss them. But I still don't want them here, getting hurt. Stop thinking about it.

...I should say thank you for the icons, though. And it's nice you're taking this seriously, I guess, and I appreciate you sticking with me even though you don't know what's going to happen to me. That still doesn't mean I like you very much, right now.

Literally hell? I'd ask if you were okay, but that would be stupid, wouldn't it?
[Sigh.]
Idie doesn't need to end up there. The Hellfire Club was bad enough.

Muns can be horribly single minded sometimes, but I talked mine out of apping me to one place by being horribly boring. Also, point out all their mistakes when they write. Maybe you can still get yours to drop you.

I'm... fine. I have to be. I can't make people worry about me.

That was kind of my point. And she's been so much better recently with the monster thing.

I don't mind, honestly. She's not the worst Mundane in the world, usually, and it's not all bad where I am. I just don't want anyone else to end up here. It wouldn't be fair at all.

[toadthejanitor]

You don't mind literal hell?

You might want to suggest to your mun that she can't do Idie's voice well. That kind of thing seems to work with mine.

Except, I can hear mine idly thinking about what letters I would get carved into me. But I don't think that's a very serious thought. So I'm probably safe. Probably. I could probably...help if I was there, but... you seem to have it pretty well in hand.

At least in hell I can't do any of that future stuff, you know? And in between the awful parts, I get to spend time with some pretty cool people. And my uncle.

She can't anyway, we'd talk too much so it would have to be someone else anyway.

There's a lot of people I know here already, so it's not too bad. I mean, if you can stop your Mundane from sending you here, you really should. Mine would probably be happy to see anyone there, though.

[That is rough. At least he's around people who care about him. In Mortimer's mind that makes things a lot better, but still, poor Evan.]

So you're holding out. Good.

[Toad snorts]
My mun is incapable of making decisions, apparently. You'd think I'd be dropped already, but no.

They're not putting you through actual torture, are they?

[the_first_light]

Not... actual medieval torture, no. Apart from the whole mark thing, and a couple of attacks from monsters, nothing's hurt me yet.

[Physically.]
