canon: deadman wonderland; voicetest; considering maskormenace

[widowler]

It's good to have someone be inspired by my story.

[Inspired's a good word for it, considering how things turned out. More like wanted to give Nagi more to work with. A game, another world that isn't so boxed in--! The possibilities are exciting, to say the least.

Also, for the canon blind, the reason he's got shitty courier text is baby here uses a voicebox. Sounds a lil mechanical.]

Even if I don't appreciate the humor in this name...

[Oh, right. Sorry about that.]

Despite that, I trust you to make good choices.

[That's a bad idea.]

I wouldn't mind going somewhere where there's children.

Do you like children?

[widowler]

[Growing a little distant, here. He has to keep himself calm when discussing these things or-- or else.]

There was a time I wanted to be a father.

[hidden_bloodlust]

You want to be a father?

[widowler]

It probably isn't possible anymore.

[hidden_bloodlust]

You never know.

[widowler]

A child would be better off with a father that could take care of them.

[Owl hasn't fully realized that if he's brought into one of these 'games,' he'll no longer be a prisoner, held to a prisoner's lot in life.]

[ she uses a pad and pencil rather than a voicebox, though she takes a moment to marvel at the whole idea of his doodad before scribbling a response and sheepishly holding it up. ]

Your story = owls, widowers, + children?

[widowler]

[Hmmm? What is this? He'll lean in and look at the written response.

Ah.]

I... something like that. My codename was-- is Owl.

[See, he really doesn't like this name!]

[perceptively]

[ she rubs her chin in a heated debate with herself over whether she should ask him why he's called owl or not.

in the end, she decides to come back to that part later and makes a mental note not to forget while she's already writing her next question. ]

What about the other two parts? [ she feels if they're touchy subjects then he'll hesitate, and if she notices him hesitating then she can switch to another subtopic again. ]

[widowler]

[He's very patient as the girl writes down her question. There's no rush. He'll reach it, brows furrowing, once she's done.]

It isn't a happy story.

[perceptively]

[ she's not sure why she's disappointed, she had already planned for this kind of answer! she snaps her fingers and drags her arm in a similar fashion to that of people who are defeated when they say 'drats!'

she's still too interested to completely shut this topic out, so she instead chooses to dance around it. ]

Is the unhappy part over?
