Moving is HARD though D8

With how much hand-wringing you're doing over this move, I'm surprised you even still have hands at all.

Please, try to relax. I am sure that everything will be perfectly fine. Perhaps you ought to go and busy yourself with something else for a time? I do not mind waiting for you to return.

I have things I must attend to myself, after all. You do not have to entertain me... Save your game hunt for another day.

It is not necessary that my schedule be full all the time.

She seems to be under the impression that if she waits long enough, the problem will fix itself. If it does not, she is... usually willing to admit that a change is necessary. Such as now. So I do like to keep that in mind.

[True nuff! Great minds think alike?]

The collection of players I have seen now is similarly small. ... I can only assume that this will be used as an excuse to place me in more games.

[That's what you get for speculatin' ha ha ha]

Considering what has been seen from that other site, the problem "fixing itself" seem unlikely, at least to a satisfactorily degree. Then there is how some of the users were treated, too.

[Considering they're different universe alternates, one would assume so, yes!]

And even putting our two disparate pools together won't be enough to give a proper set to draw conclusions from, unfortunately... But I hope she does not, both for your sake and hers.

[Jetfire thinks that mun of yours need a gentle tap on her head and a reminder to behave.]

As I am aware, but she seemed fairly convinced that a large enough outcry would change it. Her hopes were misplaced, it seems...

I will hope for the best from her, but she seems fairly set on getting me into another game. Though she is still far too anxious to act upon such whims currently.

[Which is sadly true and he's not sure what to think about this mixed blessing.]

One would think so; it would be the decent and correct thing to do, but corporations seem caught up in their own notions of business, sometimes, to the detriment of users or consumers.

[Not such an alien concept, really.]

One other game may not hurt anything, as long as she doesn't over-reach herself, I hope it'll be somewhere... agreeable, at least. Some are less than savory or reasonable.

[Deep, disapproving frown.]

It simply seems... non-conducive to business if you drive away most of your customers. Such was the notion she was hoping would be realized. However, both of us can clearly see now that the corporation in question is not terribly interested in maintaining business, if their actions have proved anything at all.

...

[yeah about that agreeable thing. There's a very... um... uncomfortable look appearing. Uncomfortable would be a 'nice' term for it.]

She's been speaking with others. She has a few criteria in mind for an appropriate game now, it would seem.

[why is this his life]

I hope that criteria includes ~~My Little Ponies~~ the most horrible place in existence.

Though termination would be a more fitting end for traitor.

[IT HAS ICE AND SNOW IT DOESN'T GET MUCH WORSE, JERK.]

I could not abide the ideology. You know well the reasons I left. I would sooner be dead, Starscream.

[Not for LACK OF TRYING, RIGHT STARSCREAM >:T]

Yes. You're a weak minded traitor.

You're better off with the rest of the scrap who call themselves Autobots.

I have come to truly enjoy my position among the Autobots. They are all dear friends of mine, so I do not see where the insult is in being affiliated with them, Starscream.

I would rather be a traitor to the Decepticons than a traitor to my own morals.

Tch. Morals.

That's only a sign of how weak you are.

You wouldn't last a day in the Decepticons.

[Yes, he failed to see the irony in that statement.]

As I recall... I did not.

[SOMEONE REMEMBERS HOW THAT WENT]

...

Right.

So you already proved my point. Ha.

[Cough.]

You've proven I could not tolerate it quite nicely, yes. I suppose that if this makes you happy, you are welcome to think whatever you like. I cannot say that your belief is incorrect.

I would be inclined to agree, yes, but that seems to be the only conclusion to be taken. Or at least, do not wish to retain their current userbase as customers in any greater capacity.

... Ah. I see. [Jetfire'll just... sigh and rub the lower half of his faceplates with his hand.]

Most mundanes seem to have an innate desire to make things as uncomfortable for us as they can.

[sympathetic disapproval, fellow alternate.]

If that is what suits them now, I suppose that is their choice. They will deal with the consequences as they occur while others reap the benefits.

[... Yep ;; It's not like things aren't getting difficult in the game he's at either. Mun just wants MORE difficulty.]

She's already arranged for unfortunate circumstances were I am. I don't see the need to compound it with putting me in two objectionable areas at once.

Quite. It's been interesting, if understandably frustrating for our mundanes and the other users, to watch, frankly.

[Huff. Some ~~people~~ mundanes, honestly.]

Indeed not. While pushing oneself is in some matters both useful and necessary there's really no need for them to to the lengths that they do.

[Narrow frown and Jetfire's crosses his arms.]

Mostly frustrating at this point, I would have to say.

...

And yet she feels compelled anyway. She finds my distress amusing, and fully intends to make full use of some... personal weaknesses that she's zeroed in on.

[You understand, he's sure.]

Mm. Despite the fact that most mundanes seem quite agreeable and like decent human beings, they seem almost driven in some instances to distress us as much as possible.

[And then he pauses, but it doesn't take long to figure out what "personal weaknesses" might mean, and his wings twitches slightly, followed by a grimace.]

I see. That's... displeasing. [The tone of voice there implies a lot more than just "displeasing", but it's a sensitive topic and he doesn't feel particularly at ease with it.]

I don't understand how distress concerning such a... trauma... is amusing at all.

[He knows. Do you know what's happening there? He can't even go inside. He's too big to fit anywhere.]

Displeasing is... a word for it.

[He can think of a lot of words for it.]

She won't tell me. She seems fully at ease to tell me what to expect, but she will not share the full reasons for doing so. ... I cannot even enter the buildings in this new world.

I am... far too big for anything they have currently.

[help]

Edited 2012-01-12 22:49 (UTC)

[Jetfire isn't really pleased at being shorter than he should be, but perhaps being small enough to fit is a good idea sometimes.]

I had to start somewhere. Depending on what happens, I would have no problems with using such words as "traumatisizing".

[And more words besides.]

... Of course she'd tell you what to expect. I suppose inflicting this knowledge on you out here, where it doesn't matter but you can still react to it, is another... amusement.

... I... still can't say I'm pleased at being merely ten feet tall, but being stuck in a place where one cannot find proper shelter isn't desierable either.

[Especially not considering their... issues... with snow. And he'd help! If he could!]

... From what I have heard, traumatizing seems to be the appropriate term.

[It's not so bad where he is right now! A little snow, not a lot! ... Yet.]

I cannot begin to tell what she's feeling. It seems to be caught between laughter and misery at this point. Whatever kind of amusement she happens to define it as, I wish to have no part in it.

Ten feet? ... I might prefer to be ten feet at this moment...

Hopefully, it will not end with that.

[But a little snow might become a lot of snow!]

If it merely was that easy to decline taking part of their amusements, I find our mundanes would probably have a lot fewer... volunteers.

[Jetfire shrugs slightly, eyeing the ground, which right now is at a proper height.]

Merely for being able to fit inside human-sized buildings in adverse conditions, I agree. Otherwise, it's not something I recommend. I vastly prefer my correct height; being reduced in sight has brought some trouble with judging distances and coordination.
