Mun watches game play for new Silent Hill, picks up me... why?

[alanwake]

This "game" you've been fanning over seems to be a pretty big deal in your life. In fact, it's ALL you've been talking about for the past... Oh, I don't know... TWO weeks at least. My brain is overloaded as it is. I don't need your obsessive fanning and otherwise reason for living chewing my ear off.

Now that that's all out in the open, here comes the question of the hour. Why me? If it's not bad enough you breathe and live another series that I'm not even in, you had to go and wake me up in the process. Before you interrupt, I need to stop you for making another stupid pun at my name. The whole "waking Alan Wake" joke is getting old real fast.

By the way, you're out of bourbon. Stop buying those cheap beers and stock up on good stuff once in a while. If I'm going to be here, you may as well make my stay a little more bearable. Oh, and if you're thinking of actually putting me somewhere, the least you can do is put me somewhere where I can be with Alice. You OWE me that much after what I've had to put up with.

Guess it's the same reason mine just pulled me out after seeing you.

Some kind of creepy nostalgia thing.

[Also bourbon sounds so damn good right now.]

[alanwake]

You have the creepy part right. Nostalgia is okay, but there's a time and place for it when it doesn't involve me of course.

[willedtoexist]

I wouldn't worry too much about it. The nostalgia goggles have to come off sometime. And when they do, they leave you alone.

Either that or they throw you in a game.

[alanwake]

Hopefully it's not the later. The last thing I need is for the them to get any bright ideas.

[willedtoexist]

Better hope they stay away from anything that reminds them of you then.

[Probably off to a bad start, but still.]

[alanwake]

Yeah... It's a little too late for that, but at least they stocked up on more bourbon. Maybe this whole complaining deal actually has benefits after all.

[coped]

It's flattering, at least.

[alanwake]

If they wanted to flatter me, they could have at least complimented my books.

...Nice to see you by the way.

[coped]

Maybe they think you're a little heavy on the metaphors, too.

[ She smiles. ]

Good to see you, Wake.

[alanwake]

Not this again... [ He almost sighed. However, he is actually seriously thinking about it this time. Really. ] I guess that might explain a thing or two.

How have you been? Staying out of trouble I hope. [ A smirk, though small to make a light reference of past events. ]

[psychoganger]

Why you? Because you’re the great Alan Wake, of course. The champion of light!

If you don’t want the honors of getting off the shelf to play, then I’ll take them for you. And I think I'll help myself to everyone of your dear muns as well.

[alanwake]

No... Not you, dammit! [Well this was a surprise. Who knew old (unwanted) faces could turn up in a place like this.]

Hate to disappoint you, but I think I suddenly changed my mind. Seems there's unfinished business to take care of around here.

[psychoganger]

[ Mr. Scratched grinned; surprise! And oh ho, these unwanted faces could show up anywhere, Al. It was just a lot easier to do it here. ]

Then I'll let you be on your way to finishing it. But I should let you know, you’re trailing behind, Wake. I already have this one in my control, will write. yes. . and many more of your loyal fans around here too.

Looks like you’re coming in last place buddy.

[alanwake]

I'll put an end to your reign and make things right. Mark my words.

[psychoganger]

If only I could mark your words buddy, but I can't do that until you're no longer breathing. Which I'm afraid I'm still gonna do for only myself. [ And not Jagger's shadow anymore. ]

[He paused, thinking of something that sounded geniune. ] I'm gonna hold off on taking your mun out for the moment, Wake, [ count yourself lucky ], just to let you two get to know each another while I take mine for a visit to New York. She loves it there.

And I know Alice does too.
