Hey, hey hey. No. You can just scoot on back to your cold little room and stop with the whole "oooh poor baby ooooh your life is so hard" crap! I got this, okay?! I am a hero, and heroes can take whatever their kinda weirdly sadistic muns throw at them! Besides it's definitely YOUR fault. You didn't have to put ghosts in my apartment.

NOT THAT I'M AFRAID OF THEM OR ANYTHING. SHUT UP.

Seriously.

Seriously.

I mean it!

Oh and knock it off with the enabling your friends crap, because I am definitely the only one cut out to survive in this place and I'll never forgive you if you bring it on anyone else, okay? Okay?

I assume that one of these "friends" you are talking about is my mun, no?

[empyreanistic]

Yeah, you know the one, the other blondie--

wait wait wait she isn't actually seriously considering it, is she?! Dude! Talk her out of it, quick! You would die in like. Four seconds.

[je_crois]

I do believe she is. Apparently your "blondie" is very persuasive.

Mais no, I am not worried. For I am sure I am strong enough for this Facility, whatever it is.

[empyreanistic]

[France, don't be offended at the way he suddenly bursts into laughter

or do it's actually kind of really annoying] Are you kidding! Man, you would die in this place. You gotta be a real hero to take the kind of shit they throw. [He's kind of grinning, and kind of also really doesn't want France there because-- okay France may have been through some really crappy times but come on he's France! He-- he surrenders and eats weird cheese and drinks wine and is also kind of a pervert!] You'd run away screaming before the first test even happened, I bet!

[je_crois]

[Well, yes. He is quite offended. And he shows this by puffing out his cheeks and fixing Alfred with a glare.]

I think not! Just you wait. Now I am going to make sure my mun gets me into this Facility of yours and I will show you just how strong the French really are!

[So there.]

[empyreanistic]

Sooo, by that you mean "not at all."

[Angelic. Grin.]

Right?

[je_crois]

[Oh. See those bristles. He did not like that. But you can't really yell at an idiot and expect to get anywhere. Time for a different approach.]

Well, at least I am not afraid of ghosts.

[empyreanistic]

Wh-- who said I was afraid of ghosts?! Learn to read, dude, I said I was totally not afraid of ghosts where did you even get that idea come on don't be stupid.

[je_crois]

Oh? Because when you mention that your mun put ghosts in your apartment and then very quickly respond with "Not that I am afraid of them or anything. Shut up." it is definitely not a denial of the obvious truth or anything like that. Is that what you are saying?

[empyreanistic]

Y-- yeah! That's exactly what I'm saying. [France you are making fun of him he can TELL, and is glaring] See, there's this thing called reading comprehension: ghosts, and then "I'm not afraid of them." If you put that together you get "America is really cool and awesome and definitely not afraid of ghosts, and I'm super lame and need to come up with better comebacks."

[viraltentacles]

Sometimes even heroes can be scared.

[empyreanistic]

Not this hero! I'm never scared. [LIES]

[viraltentacles]

Is that so?

[He's going to test that out now by forming his hands into giant-ass claws and forming some grotesque looking tentacles around his body.]

1 / 2

[empyreanistic]

[HOLY

SHIT THAT IS

REALLY CREEPY

SQUEAK]

2 / 2

[empyreanistic]

[OKAY NO AMERICA PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER YOU SAW WORSE IN THAT TASK ROOM

WORSE

his voice is still sort of strangled though] L-like I'm scared of something like that!

[viraltentacles]

Is that so?

[Creepy hooded guy moves quickly to try and get all up in your grill now. And would you look at that? Some of his tentacles are even starting to slowly move towards you too!]

[empyreanistic]

[HOLDING HIS GROUND he swallows hard, though, white as a sheet] Y-yup! Totally fine! Right now! Uh huh!

[viraltentacles]

[Then he won't mind those tentacles slithering up against him then, would he?]

[empyreanistic]

[y U P THAT IS DEFINITELY TOO CLOSE HE WILL BE SQUEAKING LIKE THE MANLY NATION HE IS AND FLEEING THE FUCK OUT OF THERE, kthxbai

oops guess he's scared after all]

[viraltentacles]

[Now one of those tentacles is chasing after you. Why don't you stay and chat a little?]

[empyreanistic]

[NOPE SHRIEKING AND RUNNING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION

YOU SIR ARE TOO SCARY]

[carshoeswagger]

You know, being scared doesn't make a person less of a hero.

[Hopefully a 49ft tall lady doesn't scare him!]

[empyreanistic]

[He has

seen weirder but that is definitely kind of, uh, woah, okay] Dude you-- got a little height. Uh. Thing.

[.........right wait was there a conversation happening] Okay, you all keep saying that, but here's the thing about heroes: even if they're scared, they get over it. That's what makes them a hero! You know, wrapped up with all the other stuff. But if heroes were scared and let themselves fall to it then they wouldn't be very heroic or anything so in the end, no, they're not scared.

And neither am I!

[carshoeswagger]

I know, I know. I got hit by a radioactive meteorite and, next thing I know, I'm bigger than a house and my jerk fiance has dumped me.

[But enough about her life story, lets get back to the actual conversation.]

Even if you get over it, you were still scared. The fear doesn't go away; you just ignore it to save people. That's what a hero does. They do things even if they're completely terrified.

[empyreanistic]

.......because you were bigger than your house? Dick move.

[He shrugs one shoulder, looking away] Yeah, but that's the same as not being afraid, in the end. Heroes can't be afraid, or what'll the people they're helping think?
