voicetesting like whoa

[elysionpriest]

I am honored that you have chosen me as a muse, Mun-sama, but I'm afraid there isn't much that you could do with me.

[he smiles faintly]

Perhaps creating space for me is a product of your lack of sleep; your dream mirror seems to--

[SHHHHHHHHHH. He just smiles knowingly]

Perhaps it would be better if you had watched over my episodes again first?

[That doesn't contribute to more sleep. Though it does prompt for more horse icons. He scowls a little at the thought of being trapped]

Comments

[actsmagnificent]

[ Huh, look at that. ] So you're the horse.

[ Sorry, she was honeymooning missed your season. But she's heard about it. ]

[elysionpriest]

[His face doesn't give away much of an emotion as he bows his head to her]

I have taken on the form of Pegasus before under dire circumstances.

[actsmagnificent]

Glad you're feeling better.

[ She sizes him up silently. The kid's really fond of this guy, and while it sounds like he's both on their side and from this planet (or close enough), team dad's gotta dad. ]

[elysionpriest]

[Oh he could feel her size him up]

I thank you, Warrior of Uranus, and am glad to see you again after all these centuries.

[actsmagnificent]

[ Pff, you make her sound so old. ] So what happens now? The world's been saved, and the kid's gone back to her time.

[ And yet you're here, on a roleplaying site. Hm. ] ...you're not trying to follow her, are you?

[elysionpriest]

I don't know what my new Mun has in store for me. Other than my appearence seems to be based on insomnia, there truly is no reason for me to be here.

[unless rabbits appear]

[actsmagnificent]

[ She knows where you could find a few, including a pink one, but she's keeping that to herself. For now. ] Must be tough, relying on dreams.

[elysionpriest]

In the company of such beautiful dreams, it isn't so bad.

[he smiles faintly]

[actsmagnificent]

[ Oh boy, you're an idealist. She is so shocked. Amused, too, though.

Haruka sticks her hands into her pockets. ] Well, there's a few of us kicking around too. Mostly in games - bunhead shows up on memes every now and then, if you're interested.

[elysionpriest]

[he chuckles softly]

I do not believe Mun-sama is ready enough for me to go into a game just yet. But it makes me glad to know the senshi are around, keeping all of us safe.

[actsmagnificent]

Thanks for your support.

[ #justMissionthings ]

[elysionpriest]

[He bows his head again]

Of course. Such keepers of beautiful dreams make strong warriors, do you not agree?

[actsmagnificent]

[ He's got a point. But admitting as much messes with the whole "cool realist" thing, so she'll deflect. ] You'd know best.

[ The smirk finally threatens to turn into a smile. ] Good luck.

[elysionpriest]

[he smiles back at her]

And you as well, warrior of Uranus.

[He knows their dreams well and Uranus was no exception to the beautiful dreams of the senshi. He finally stands straight]

Are you in a game?

[actsmagnificent]

[ Please don't go spreading the word about all her beautiful dreams. Michiru does that enough as it is. ] Two. One here, one in some other place. It's not bad.

[elysionpriest]

[See this serene smile? This means that he knows and he won't tell. If Michiru asks, though, he's not responsible.]

Do you find these games enjoyable?

[actsmagnificent]

I thought you weren't shopping. [ Here's a grin, though. Just messing with him. And/or trying not to think about that smile he gave her right back. ]

[elysionpriest]

[he laughs softly]

I haven't spoken to many outside of Elysion. This is a treat.

[actsmagnificent]

[ Fair enough. She'll bite. ] The one here's faster than the other one, and there's more company. But I didn't get to keep my original history.

[ Also animals. There are lots of animals. ] It's something to do, I guess.

[elysionpriest]

Then is Neptune-sama not at your side in that one?

[he's surprised at that]

[actsmagnificent]

Says who?

[ Hah. Like an "alternate universe" would manage to break up the ~best cousins ever.~ ] You'd see a lot of familiar faces.

[elysionpriest]

[he gives a small sigh of relief]

It would be too strange to not see you together.

[actsmagnificent]

[ Haruka has the good fortune to have a lovely Michiru at both her games. ] So that's all you do? Watch over us from another world?

[moonlit_star]

Hello, Helios. It makes me quite happy to see you. I hope you are well?

[elysionpriest]

[in her presence, his eyes grow wide and he immediately drops to one knee and bows his head]

I am. I have been keeping vigil since the defeat of Nehelenia and her circus.

[moonlit_star]

I am glad to hear that, and gladder still to know you're in good health. It feels a bit too long since last I've seen you.

[elysionpriest]

Then it is far into the future that you have traveled from.

[moonlit_star]

Far farther than you may know, dear one.

[elysionpriest]

[he nods and keeps his composure]

What has transpired for you to grace your presence here?

[moonlit_star]

Hmm, far too much, and not all of it [Any of it] pleasant. But what I am facing is something that is many many years to come, I would much rather rejoice in seeing a face I am so fond of.

[elysionpriest]

My lady, I thank you for your kind words.

[If she is so far from the future, he is tempted to ask about his Maiden. Is she happy? Will she fulfill her dream of being a Lady?]

[queenofnightmares]

How nice to see you again, dear Helios. I hope you haven't forgotten me...

[elysionpriest]

[the way his jaw tightens? Yes, he hasn't forgotten her.]

Impossible.

[queenofnightmares]

Thought you had seen the last of me, didn't you? Nightmares always come back even when they seemed to be vanquished by awaking at the light of day. All dreams must become them in the end...

[elysionpriest]

But then the golden light will chase away the temporary darkness.

[He knows this as truth. His Maiden chased Nehelenia away before]

[pinkifying]

Helios, um...

[be cool BE COOL]

My mun made a lot of manga icons of you, quite some time ago. They're here, but she'd be happy to remake them for you. Or make more.

Or. Um. Well, I don't want her to assume that you want them. Or need them. B-BUT if you do, then. There they are.

Yes.

[nailed it]

[elysionpriest]

[his Maiden. She's here. ]

I would be more than honored to use them, my Maiden.

[and immediately, he is on one knee before her, head bowed]

SORRY I'M LATE i just had the worst move ever

[pinkifying]

[she flushes a deep shade of red and frantically waves her hands at him in a criss-cross] OH- Nono, please don't, you don't have to--

[she almost hurriedly tries to touch his arms in an effort to get him to stand, but then pulls them back as if burned when she realizes what she's doing]

I'm not-- You don't have to kneel or anything, I'm just-

[she lowers her voice and face, almost embarrassed] Like this, I'm just a normal girl.

HI LATE I'M LATE TOO

[elysionpriest]

[He looks up at her, confused as to why she wouldn't come near him. He smiles gently at her]

You're far more than a normal girl, Maiden.

[Did she not see how important she was to him all of them?]

[pinkifying]

[she does manage to laugh a little, but she's still holding back.]

It's a little hard to escape sometimes. I guess that's why I like wearing a school uniform.

[she spreads her arms a little, indicating the one she's currently wearing - different from the one he might remember.]

But enough about me. Are you well since then...?
