It's that magical boy anime

[thethirdkind]

You know, the way I see it, there are characters who can be played, characters who can't be played...

And then there are those who are neither of the two.

You already know which one I am.

The greatest Magical boy anime in the world. Also, voicetesting.

[golden_conquest_leader]

Yet, here you are.

[Strange, this one seems to still be full of hate. There may still be use for him yet.]

Ahhh hello there!

[thethirdkind]

Ah, did you hear that? I was only sort of talking to myself.

[Or not exactly himself, but whatever. It's not like there's a difference either way.]

I'm going to hope to god I dont butcher him xD

[golden_conquest_leader]

I do believe you were talking to your Mundane? That's not to yourself.

awww nah so far, so good!

[thethirdkind]

Well... True.

But it's kind of like that saying, isn't it? "If a tree falls in a forest" and all that. I can speak up, but I can't guarantee that I'm heard.

Sweet! I'm glad!

[golden_conquest_leader]

But there is someone around to hear you. I heard you.

♥

[thethirdkind]

It seems that way. Um...

I'm not sure how to respond even after being heard. It's a rare occurrence, after all.

Just realized something, what if after the love shower. Their faces stay like that forever?

[golden_conquest_leader]

Perhaps you don't speak clearly? Around school, you seem to mumble to yourself.

HAHA oh my god that would be amazing

[thethirdkind]

Eeeh!? I-I... mumble?

[Actually, he seems to start to mumble something further to himself, debating this possibility, but it's completely incomprehensible.]

Is that so... Is that really it? Even I never noticed...

Now I want to see them walking around school with the same face xD

[golden_conquest_leader]

You never noticed that you mumble to yourself?

[How does that happen?]

Still need to get to watching that--

[starliner]

So... someone who's in-between? Some people might take that as a challenge, you know.

it is wonderful I am in pretty deep haha...

[thethirdkind]

"Challenge?"

Hmm. More than in-between, it's more like someone who can't even compare. In fact, someone so insignificant that maybe they don't really exist at all.

S-so much anime to watch still, no time to keep up...!

[starliner]

They must have found something that stuck out about you, though, or else you wouldn't be here.

THIS IS TRUE I totally feel you there

[thethirdkind]

You think so? It could be just a whim. For example, I'm a member of the Biology Club, but I rarely even attend. If you asked me my reason for joining, I couldn't even tell you.

I'M STILL WADING THROUGH SPORTS HELL and then there's mecha and then this....

[starliner]

But it could be the start of something fun, too, couldn't it? It's all about perspective.

Mmm... what about your reasons for not going? Anything coming to mind?

gosh I still need to get back to sports hell too sdkljf

[thethirdkind]

Nothing in... particular.

[And a sigh.]

Perspective is fine from the first two categories, I think. But from where I'm standing, everything else seems so far away.

I finally started watching Kuroko and immediately regret because THAT EPISODE COUNT

[starliner]

Hm. Well, baby steps, right? If you put in the effort, I'm sure you can bring yourself a little closer to everything else.

[Nod nod. He's... really got no room to speak, being one of the 'popular kids' in the 1000+ character series but sssssh...]

YEAH... I need to pick that up from s2 and continue yowapedal... and finish hq!!...

[thethirdkind]

[Hey hey now, maybe he's got a special ability to read these bracket comments, huh!! (No, he doesn't.)]

"Effort," huh... If only that were the issue. It's a matter of substance here. Like trying to give form to air.

No, air can have an effect even if it isn't seen. It's more like... a ghost, perhaps? It both does and doesn't exist since no one can prove it one way or the other. But in the end, it doesn't much matter, regardless. Because it doesn't have any bearing on anyone's life.

[crosstail]

Well, you got a screentime so you're playable.

[ Y'know, Lubbock doesn't really agree with his mun totally yet, but their logic (at least on this one) is a spot-on. ]

[thethirdkind]

Is that how it works? You simply have to be there? In that case, I suppose I was, but...

It's like there are major characters, there are minor characters... and then there are those who are neither of the two.

[crosstail]

Well, I suppose you're correct about that.

Next, you're going to tell me that you are not part of the last one, right?

[thethirdkind]

I'm always in the third group. Not great, not bad, but nothing at all.

[crosstail]

You can't be nothing at all, dude. There's at least one thing that you excel at, right?

[thethirdkind]

You can be. Because that's how I am. If there's anything that I excel at, I'm sure that it's something like excelling at nothing.

[crosstail]

...Okay then, excelling at nothing it is. [ Now Lubo's starting to believe that this guy before him is really as... plain as he said. ] But you can go jack-of-all-stats, right?

[ Haha time to put some manga knowledge. ]

[thethirdkind]

I suppose... that might be true. But is it useful if I don't excel at any of them? People would rather go to a specialist, wouldn't they?
