for the first time in for--

[bearanbow]

Och! NOOOOO!

Why did ye bring me back only tae torture me with music from some other place? Missin' me isn't a reason.

[Yes it is. Merida gives an over the top sigh and reaches for an apple, biting into it and talking with her mouth full]

If ye wanted princesses, you should've tried for someone else.

Comments

[ewbroccoli]

Ugh, yeah, Muns do love to do things like that to us, don't they?

[Have someone else who's unamused.]

[bearanbow]

Em...

[She stares tihs one down because. Is this a bad apple or is she seeing things? She's seen wisps. So this--]

Are ye one of the little people?

[ewbroccoli]

[Merida's getting a look.]

'Little people'? I'm an emotion.

[bearanbow]

An...emotion.

[Right. That makes no sense whatsoever. Merida tosses the apple aside in favor of exploring this emotion]

And what's emotions do?

I apologize in advance for Ms. Sass over here

[ewbroccoli]

You've gotta be kidding me. You don't know what emotions do? You know, making you feel happy, or sad, or angry? I'm one of the ones responsible for helping someone feel.

meanwhile I think these two will get along better (and I play her better x.x)

[isadrag]

But your mun missed you, right? That's a good thing... right?

[bearanbow]

Och, there's one, now there's another. And you're em...another...emotion?

[isadrag]

[She nods slowly.] I'm Sadness... it's nice to meet you...

[All said in that low depressing tone. But she's smiling a little!]

[bearanbow]

[All right, this one's slightly off but gets Merida's attention. She crouches to be eye level to this blue...thing. She wants to reach out and poke at the emotion]

I'm Merida. Em...are you in relation tae the Wisps?

[isadrag]

[She tilts her head a little.] I've never heard of 'wisps'... we just live in someone's head and help them feel and make decisions.

[bornofbloodandbattle]

Is there something wrong with choosing you?

[bearanbow]

Nae. Just that she comes, then she goes, she comes an' she goes like she pleases. Has yours done that to you?

[bornofbloodandbattle]

No, I have only just arrived her, seeking out what they have to offer.

[A pause.]

Though given the way the others have reacted, I assume it is a common occurrence.

[bearanbow]

Some stay for longer. So ye might be in that category.

Em...who are you?

[bornofbloodandbattle]

Perhaps I shall, mine is currently in the process of rereading some of my ventures. [A very strange feeling to be saying that indeed.]

Conan, and who are you, girl?

[four_fantastic]

[Have a big orange rock dude from Brooklyn. There might be some other FF members nearby too.]

Pretty sure ya more believable than most of those older princesses, kid. I think ya could give Hawkeye a run for his money from what this blue eyed boy heard.

[bearanbow]

Thanks.

[She likes this one, he reminds her of Fergus. Probably the big guy aspect.]

Who's Hawkeye?

[four_fantastic]

Neh, no problem kiddo.

[Big and lovable, that's Ben, and he'd likely be perfect with the boys in the castle.] Oh, he's a fancy archer guy where I come from, if yeh ever meet you should challenge him or somethin'.

[bearanbow]

Sounds like fun.

[four_fantastic]

Should be! Anyhoo, I'm Ben. Pleased to meet ya, yeh royal highness... people are supposed to say that stuff to princesses, right?

[shoulda_toined]

I'm pretty sure "Princess" ain't a required category fer a mun ta take a likin' to ya, toots. Fer dat mattah, I don't pretend ta know how dey think on any mattah--dey confuse me, and I'm a freakin' Toon.

[bearanbow]

Aye but poofy isn't what I'm like. And why am I talkin' tae a rabbit? Or are you a hare?

[shoulda_toined]

Why not? And I'm a Hippety Hoppeticus Hilarious--dat's Anthropomorphic Cartoon Bunny in plain English.

(Aside comment:) Pardon da doggy Latin, folks. My mun was nevah big on da classics.

[bearanbow]

Em... who're you talking to?

[shoulda_toined]

Da Audience, 'a course! Gotta keep 'em entertained--it's how I get paid, after all.

(Waves.) Hi, Audience! And if yer mad dat I broke da Fourth Wall--well, I'm a Toon. Dat kinda comes wid ta territory.
