Mun... I don't think this is a good idea.

[At least in the first game her mun wanted - and still wants - to app her to, she would be able to go home and come back at will. This one... she'll be trapped there, and there'd be no way to go back, figure out what she needed to do and do it.]

It... it doesn't sound like a good place to be. And I won't be able to go back, either.

[Not that she's easily frightened or squeamish. Just... it's not going to be like being in Halloweentown. Halloweentown is scary, but the kind of thing that scares you fast and then you laugh afterwards because it was just a prank or a trick.

... This place sounds a lot different than that.]

Besides... You said Roxas won't remember...

pluckygirldetective

Eh, you missed me? Well, we did have some good times, didn't we? It's so sweet of you to think of me again!

[tee-hee!]

It'll be just like old times~ Oh, the places we'll go! Except I guess I'm by myself now, aren't I? I suppose it's unlikely I'll see any of my traveling companions here, isn't it.

...excellent.

earthbends

So, I just get here, and already they're hounding me to join up with them. It's always the same.

"Toph, help us, we need a bridge to cross this river!" or "Toph, save us, there's hot lava coming right at us!"

Then what? Gratitude? No! More demands. Tch.

childtiger

Mun! You didn't do it again! You promised you'd finish it this time, and you didn't do it!

Don't tell me you'll finish it next time; Forget about the app! I don't want to go anywhere! Just go play with your other characters!

You're just like Dad.

[Ooh. Harsh. And here the game she wanted to be in had her dad in it and everything.

She turns away and shuts her eyes with a light "Hmph". This was all too familiar, and she'd rather not be played by someone as flimsy as her own dad.]

niceguy

I wasn't expecting this It's...well...wow. I mean, out of all the people.

[Small shrug]

I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to do but it really looks like you do. But can...well can I ask a question?

....

If you can make 15 icons...why are you leaving 8 spaces open on purpose? It's only one person per journal, right?

...

right?

[.....FINE! Don't answer. It's not like I ever get one anyways. I'm going to need a light bulb if I'm going to be in the dark all the time. Oh! Hey! There's a bright idea.]

!!! Y-y...you can read that? I'm sorry! I...*sigh* right. Nevermind.

Current Mood: annoyed

argentbullet

I refuse to go somewhere where family is not present. Mother would not approve.

discos

It's always the same thing, you know. You'll let me get dusty and dingy here just like you did the last place, only it's been even longer since all this was shiny to you. All wrapped up neat and nice for relocation, only it's a fuckin' waste of transit.

My mum was less of a disappointment than you are.

whichtheydefend

A curious purpose you have, mun. You speak of Elves and castles, magic and things I have read about as a child. My presence is elsewhere promised. There is little time for many things, and my father requests that I ride to Osgiliath... to whatever end.

Perhaps it would be kinder, to be whisked away to some land of magic, but my heart would be elsewhere.

candlehat

Oh! Hello, Miss! It's been quite a while since last I've seen you. ... and, unless I'm mistaken, this is an entirely new journal that you've created here. That's wonderful! Thank you for taking me along on your adventure here.

So, where shall we explore next? It looks like there are many new and old friends of yours here for us to meet with, and new games to explore, as well!

... oh, you haven't considered a home for me yet? Well, that's just fine. Take your time. I'll be right here waiting.

worstcooking

...Didn't we have enough customers already?

What's wrong, Chika-chan?

Oh. Hi, Hibiki. I'm just talking to my mun. Say, we've had trouble with less patrons before. How are we going to handle the cafe opening up for so many people?

Well, all we have to do is our best. More customers mean that we might get closer to becoming Michelin rated!

Huh...? I guess getting the word around would help, but can we really handle it with just the two of us?

I'm sure it'll be fine! Manager George says that he's hiring a bunch of new co-workers to help us out.

...I'd wonder about our hiring standards, but I don't think we're in the position to do that.

We'll be fine, Chika-chan! As long as everybody leaves happy, there shoudln't be a problem at all. We may see more of our regulars more often too.

I guess if we keep to our normal roles, we do have some hope... [a sigh] Alright. I'm counting on you, Hibiki!

You too, Chika-chan!

sixthanimorph

Hey, I get your enthusiasm, but you really are getting ahead of yourself. There's still no telling when Arthas will make his move, Slick didn't stick around long enough to bother joining in, that Drake guy's probably useless without his magic. and Wanda... I don't even know what Wanda's gonna do. So cool it.

What are you laughing about? 'You're finally learning patience?' Screw you. This isn't new, I've always been patient when I needed to be. This isn't anything different, and it's definitely not the Barge changing me. Because it's not.

And yeah, I know Tim and Dick are gonna be pissed. So what? I gave Dick everything he needed to know. My responsibility's taken care of. And as for Tim... he's got no place talking to me about what I should do if he really did let Sylar kill people.

As for Dean and Viserys... I know I oughta jump in, but honestly? I wanna sit back and watch a little bit longer. Maybe get some popcorn.

No? Ah, you're no fun.

In which we would like to let you know that we are going to stop going through all posts and tagging canons. Up until now, we've been doing that once a day, but since we're now at the point where we have a tag for most if not all popular canons, from now on we are only going to add canon tags to posts if you comment with a tag request to the sticky mod post.

So if you want to make sure that your post gets tagged, either do it yourself, or, if the tag doesn't exist yet, drop us a tag request comment. Tagging your post is not required by comm rule, but it'll help other players find your post by tracking individual canon or game tags. To see if a tag exists, please check the list of all tags that's linked in the sidebar of the comm.

Thanks for using

dear_mun! All comments, requests, questions, please comment here. (Except tag requests; those go in the sticky mod post.) All comments are screened.

virtualdiva

To be honest, I kind of liked the old username better. But I think the new one's nice, though! Plus, the new icons are great too. And we have subject lines again!

What are you waiting for, mun? Get moving!

volstaggin

Right. So here we are... Pictures, words for pictures.

Now what?

I'm telling you, mun, this hesitation of yours isn't getting you anywhere at all.

cursedtosleep

I think we should hold off on the icon space for now, until we know what we're doing. It doesn't hurt to be patient.

Current Mood: calm

bzweeep

Hello there, mun!

It's nice to see you've been having fun in my absence. [Hands on hips. Someone doesn't look impressed.]

I see you have taken the fabricated personality you gave to me, all those years ago -- and given it to someone else, hm? [He waves his hands as if they're the two sides of a scale, one going up as the other goes down.] And now you want to pick me up again? Are you sure that's a good idea?

...For that matter, are you sure you want to use this-- [air quotes] 'new Thorton' at all?

As I understand, these hand signals are making it difficult.

[Smiiiirk.]

somuchmoretastier

Yep. Good to see you again too. Always a pleasure to be here and not in some mud hut looking at a spinosaurus' ankles, y'know?

But I gotta say--and stop me if you've heard this one, right?--doesn't this feel like a bit of deja-vu? I mean, weren't I meant to go gallivanting through the 1920s a while ago? So... We're trying again, yeah? Brilliant. Awesome. Superb. Just one thing. I get this feeling that you're only giving one ticket out of here. And. Well. Y'know. Gotta say there were two passengers who travelled on the Anomaly-747 direct flight to Cretaceous, no expenses paid and not even an in-flight movie, not even I Am Legend on continuous loop. No badly cooked chicken either...

So, I guess what I'm saying is that it's dead good that we're giving this escape another shot and all, but I mentioned the Bonnie and Clyde thing before, remember? It doesn't really work if it's Nn-nghh and Clyde, 'cause it don't sound right. Can't have one without the other. Do you catch my drift here?

... Couldn't care less, couldya?

Y'know what. Fine. Just... Do what'ya like, okay? As long as there's electricity and radio-waves, I can bloody well do anything. That's right. If you leave Abby stranded there on her own? That's just fine, because she'll just hang tight and kick a raptor in the do-nads while I figure a way to get her back. Yeah. C'mon mate, do your worst!

tatra

Mundane, I'm worried for my dear sister. What if she's lonely without me? I've been gone more than a day already! Isn't there anything you can do?

...

Well yes, more tea would help. There's a hole in your pantry I think some orange spice tea would fit perfectly in.

ivanova

Well done. Now, clean yourself up and attend this evening's function like it's duty. Look, if I can deal with negotiating a treaty that requires me to put sex on the table ~~granted, I found a loophole in that the alien didn't know a damn thing about human physiology~~ you can go attend a play you have no interest in attending.

Current Mood: cynical

fortunesforsale

You shouldn't act so surprised. You already know how I feel about my job, and there's no reason why that wouldn't work in my favor. In fact, the closer they get to each other, the more convenient it becomes. So why wouldn't I support that?

And while we're talking, you could always start looking for a new game. Maybe I'll get the chance to demonstrate the usefulness of close bonds.

dataku

Mun, this is not funny!

~~It was never funny in the first place, but that's beside the point~~ I just punched someone in the face!

bindsthedead

A 'demon' that's inside of a corpse?

I think you should make sure I can replace Saraneth and Kibeth as soon as possible. For all your assurances, I think I'll need them.

alomar

Don't worry, I hardly think that this place needs any more of a welcome than the one you've already given me.

[ Sheva's tone is clear and light. The slightly melodic enunciation of her words indicates that English isn't her mother tongue—not by a long shot—but she speaks it with the same practised ease and fluency of someone who's been immersed in it for some time. Obviously, she's been well taught. ]

I know what you're thinking, and I know that I don't need to remind you that the BSAA hasn't had any prior dealings with Anatole. [ She pauses, working her tongue around the pronunciation. ] It could be dangerous.

Anyway, try to keep this in mind while you're making your decision: I don't step in for recon work just to leave it behind when the going gets tough. You and I will need to see this through to the end, no matter what happens.

—Okay?

bloodberry

...It's not like they were going to render the entire thing! That's not really what it looks like--

Stop laughing!

clumsyidol

Don't worry, I'm sure the reason why you haven't heard back yet is because everyone is busy. You shouldn't feel down because of it, just wait and see in a few days when you open up your e-mail you'll get an acceptance notice.

Even if you don't think you did a good job just writing everything out and sending it in is worth something!

magmaticflamberge

Well, mundane, I can very well say that I hate you with all my might right now.

Not only have you moved me here when I had explicitly requested that you refrain from doing so... But the first thing you have me do here is set me up to hurt Tallie?! A traumatized child on a quest for comfort, after her nightmarish world left horrible scars on her soul? One of the most beloved guests to ever grace my house? ~~My pet project for a new Team Magma recruit?~~ ... Do remedy this most dishonorable, not to mention unpleasant, situation as soon as possible. You know that these hands would never hurt her. Apologize to all involved.

... Additionally, no, I was not pleased to find out that he could be coming here. Contrary to your opinion of me, I have learned aplenty from my mistakes. His company is not one I desire any longer.

vainqueurdeluxe

My darling writer.... I'm not sure I see where you're coming from. What exactly do you intend to do with me? Keep me here like your little pet?

You're no better than those in the Capitol. The least you could do is find something for me to have fun with.

Yours,
Cashmere

reform

So, this is what it comes down to? Should I be impressed that I made the cut? Thought you'd given up the ship, if we're being honest.

[ a sigh. well-- ]

Get to it, then. We both know I have all the time in the world. Your attention span, though... That's another story entirely.

canismajor

So you think you're up to it. That's truly charming, girl. Reading the series again would do you more good than bothering with these... tiny still pictures. What do they matter? ...although you could have kept it more consistent...

Well. As long as I get to do something, I'm not complaining.

...something not utterly useless would be great.

outforbloodinvegas

...Sure.

It's going to be fun watching you crash and burn.

unparental

Do I really need to explain why this is an awful idea? Because I think anyone who's ever watched Logan Fell in action for a single millisecond of time already knows why I'm not thrilled with you right now.

Watch it, or I'll pull out mom-voice. I might even talk about how I'm not mad, I'm disappointed.

My point is: no. Whatever you're thinking, whatever you're idly planning, whatever it is that made you make that sound? No. It's not going to happen, ever.

profitableboron

I...I don't follow.

You found a bunch of pictures of me and made them small, you make a mildly-scientific joke, put my name off to the side, and here I am. Here, whe-wherever here is, neither on Earth or the moon, and...what for? Where's Gerty?

[...]

N-No Gerty, huh? Fuck. I guess I could have it worse, like...well, I don't know what's worse, since everything happened and my contract "ran out," or whatever the real issue is, but...hey, I had a good run.

Let me rest, okay? It's cold, all right. It's really cold, and without Gerty to get me a hot cup of coffee, it's going to be cold for good.

So just leave me a-alone.

forthepeople

You're angry at yourself for being sick. You do know how that sounds - how silly it sounds. Plans can get re-made.

Look, you're not in the best state of mind to judge anything, least of all yourself. Trying to force it when you have a fever won't do you any good. You don't have to take me anywhere. You wouldn't this month anyway. When you do, you know the friends you have who've been reading for longer will help you with the things you don't know.

Relax, kid. The love is there - the rest will take care of itself. So take care of yourself and go back to bed.

Go.

ametheoryst

I don't see why you had to switch sites. The old one was nice, and the new layout was cute.

Besides, I was... Nevermind.

Your world's computers aren't very good.

I wanted to help. To do my part for my country and for the war. Captain America was my hero.

I thought he would understand.

Must you always make me so alone?

femrys

It's not so bad over here, is it? What with the countless journals you've been making, the time you've wasted on making them all so nice (all except mine, I've noticed, not that my feelings are a bit hurt or anything) ...

Anyone would think you've actually decided to take this seriously!

[ Merlaine grins, bright and cheerful, although there's a sparkle of something a little too knowing behind those baby-blues. ]

I'm looking forward to seeing what you get up to next. Artura will be so pleased to see me, I'm sure.

redheadlion

Yeesh. As long as you don't lose your momentum.

You've got me in two places, so don't forget the second place.

...I'm glad to see Nala just about to come in. I'm happy.

highfunctioning_sociopath

Just because things were proven in that episode about how you choose to portray me does not mean that there isn't room for improvement.
There is always room for improvement.

Yeah, yeah, I understand if you have to take a little time. Just like recording a song, it's best if you get used to me before releasing anything. Doing a lazy job just makes the Kagamines look bad! But don't take too long, okay? It's not like you haven't played a Len before - even if it was just a PV version.

And make sure you actually follow through with it! I won't forgive you if you go to all this trouble and then leave Rin alone anyway!!

Wings, you say? Hahaha, that sounds great! I wonder if I'll be able to fly with them!--

--Oh? You can't? Ah, that's a shame... But my Oz, Gilbert, and Ada are there, so I don't mind! If anything, I'm looking forward to it. We'll even be able to live under the same roof together and with the others, right? It'll be just like old times! [except with even more people ~~AND EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM WILL BECOME HIS OTHER SONS.~~]

resurgir

Right, so, let's look at the months. You quit this whole scene back in...October? Earlier? You don't even fucking remember, do you?

Doesn't matter, you still didn't even make it to six months before you came crawling back. The hell are you even up to, anyway? You got work, you got those stupid games of yours, and you just had to pick a game that's gonna thrill your little mind so much that you'll obsess over it and stay up half the night goofing off.

Whatever. Not my problem.

You just remember that as tough as I am I can't go jumping off buildings and punching buses like that other guy, the old me. I've got too much shit to do and no time to waste in the hospital because you were an idiot and forgot I can't fucking fly.

...

The jaguar's cool, though. You get a pass for that.

overlyemotional

Don't think I'm not grateful. I know I deserve a second chance. Since I blew my first second chance. But, I'm not a walk in the park. I'm not a good time or a fun idea. I'm a wreck. I have all these feelings. And I'm hungry all the time. Did you want a killer in your head? And I don't mean a brooding, killed in the 20's 'hello I can walk in the daylight' killer, I mean an honest to God, 'oops, there goes another housekeeper' killer. Not that God has anything to do with it. And while we're on the subject, try to get me one of those daylight rings.

I don't know whether to hate Anna or thank her. No, that's a lie. I want to rip her head off. I also want to rip your head off.

Jenna's going there? Maybe? She better be. I don't like broken promises.

Shut up. I don't care if I'm the 'king of broken promises.'

You're crazy. And that's coming from a crazy, psychotic vampire. I hope you know what you're getting into.

Just check the warning label. Keep out of reach of children (and aspiring reporters.) Parental guidance isn't just suggested. It's preferred. ...They also might get eaten. But, hey, don't blame me. Blame my nature.

I was -- reborn this way. Oops?

Kind of ironic, no?

Ah, mon ami, I think you have something confused! I am a ladykiller, not just a... well, killer. What would an ordinary albeit handsome high school student such as I have to offer in a game of assassination?

shortpants_knight

[Link is very quiet for a long time. In fact, he stays quiet for long enough that one might wonder if his mun is playing him as mute. Some choice words muttered under his breath dispel that illusion though.

See, he has a laundry list of reasons why he's angry with his mun, such as his username, her amusement at his fallen into lava reaction in the game, and other minor things like that. He's not even addressing the slightly amusing fact that after 25 years of playing the series, she finally has a muse from it.

No, it's his canon point for the game she intends to send him to that has him thoroughly aggravated.]

You're getting yourself a bit worked up over nothing, aren't you? I'm flattered you don't want to make any mistakes with me, but you are over thinking it. I'm not much different from others you've tried your hand at before.

Let's focus on the real matter at hand, shall we? What sort of inmate do you think I'm going to end up with?

I think we have issues.
