No, I don't think it was funny at all. Someone had to do something about that walrus.

...

What do you mean it was a stupid plot point!?! I'll show you a stupid plot point!

[She searches for something to throw.]

lostwithoutmyblogger

Stop overreacting.

Idiot.

beatrush

Look, I understand that "winging it" is usually the way you like to do things, but being prepared this time around might be a better idea with everything you have going on right now. Just a thought.

Besides, I'm fine with the way things are right now. More than fine.

322434

Funny. You watch all that and come away with me.

Now now, don't shy away- I'm not complaining. Just interested.

Do you think that's an avoidance tactic, or am I just irresistible? Could be both, you know. Alright, it's probably both.

[...]

I'm fine. Oh, dear, you don't really think I go in for grief, do you? No.

No, it's not my thing. If I were you, I really wouldn't bother.

disheartening

Miss mundane, well this is such an interesting concept, is it not?

Come now, you thought I'd be angry, did you not? Aren't life simply filled with surprises?

We are not so different after all, aren't we? We both simply love our playgrounds.

You keep to yours, and let me manage mine and we shall be just fine.

After all, you do wish for us to be civil, true?

watchesoverfirebrat

So, what's with that place you're considering taking me? Languishment. I don't really get it, but hell, I can just stay here. You've already got someone there, eh?

I don't really need to go. [Too bad he doesn't know it's not that easy to get out of.]

elf_ofthe_9

I can tell you are excited by the idea of trying to play me, but do finish your reading first! I don't think it would be a good idea to try to play me with only partial knowledge on my race.

Oh, and please consider relocating where you intend to send me. I have had enough adventure to last me several lifetimes of Men, and really it is enough for an Elf as well! I also have many other things to do before leaving on my way to the West.

blottoparry

Eyes *and* a name? Lucky girl.
Well, at least we now know where the perimeters of my scientific interests lie.

german_beefcake

You're doing so well vith your costume, you don't need any more distractions. I know some of the people at

poly_chromatic vill be happy to see you again but zhey can wait for now. We'll discuss things more after the convention, ja?

...

Ah, I just realized I'm serving as a distraction... I guess zhat kind of defeats the purpose....

onlyblue

[she's very, very quiet, her eyes not leaving the floor. she fidgets. she really wants to say something, and it shows, but she doesn't want to open her mouth.]

... thank... you.

...

You... remembered.

[she wants to smile, but she holds it in.]

worldserpent

To go.. somewhere away from the oceans? So long as it's not near Odin. Or Thor. In the waters, I do not see or hear much of humanity, but I do know a little. Enough to manage, I think.

It might be nice to see my siblings again. It was.. cruel of Odin to separate us. Was it not? Perhaps it was cruel of Father to let him.

.. You should.. study more. You are very shaky with what you know.

fanaticisms

Fuck you and whatever shit you rode on in. I'm not rolling over and kissing your ass, so you either find me something to do or let me do whatever.

You're more roundabout than Kakuzu is, damn.

nohecanthesapig

Oh. Hahaha. You're hilarious.

Leave the jokes to the webheaded professionals pal.

trapnested

I sure hope you can find a game for me soon, mun.

[sighhh, life is hard]

I'm so bored.

ex_braveblade927

But ... why is Hostess going bankrupt?

loathsomecopy

It's funny, your panicking. Why didn't you think about this before you apped me there?

You're wrong if you think I'm going to let you change me to being his servant again. How easy do you think it'd be? Even if you did, I'd still be on the space station as I am now. It's confusing you, isn't it? Perhaps your brain isn't as functional as you thought it was. Pathetic human.

This'll be after the Generations plot if it happens. You have time to continue struggling to think.

worstaliasever

Well. This is an interesting change of pace.

Now that you have this, what do you intend to do with me?

Personally, I don't mind. So long as I can have my fun...

needsteaplz

What the hell, mun?!

No, getting a pet isn't making up for the fact you made me call the cops on Miki and now she's in jail. And don't get me started on that "Tap that" meme. Did you forget that I'm taken?! Stop shipping me with other people. And if you ship me with Gilgamesh in any way I will throw you a window!

itsokay

It's okay if you don't get it done in time. There's another application window after this one. It's not the end of the world. Really.

I'd rather you submitted an app next month that made sense instead of one you wrote doped up on Benadryl. Don't rush it and don't make your cold worse.

angustifolium

It's okay.

It's not the first time. It probably won't be the last. But this time it didn't end because someone tried to kill Curie.

Yes, I'm sad. I'd had hopes this time. But it's something I should've known would happen.

At least I won't remember.

timeforsurgery

Well Mundane, you've got guts I'll give you that.

So why don't you come over here and let me show them to you? It won't hurt.

Much.

kritya

Oh? Have you been trying to get my attention for a while? I suppose I'm not one of those who are terribly fond of getting caught, but you just did.

I'll let you have your fun for now, but I can't promise I'll stay.

summonedstrength

"Mundane"? Such a name does not seem befitting of someone as...interesting as I am to gather you are. I shall have to find a less insulting address if I am to properly express my gratitude for our meeting.

Though I do wonder -- by what reason have I been summoned here? We have known one another in passing for years, but never have I been called to stand alongside you. At the risk of sounding ungrateful...why now?

[She tells him something and his demeanor instantly shifts from calm to absolutely horrified.]

...Certainly you jest.

Please, tell me you jest.

skyhero

( Maybe spoilers? )

intheshadow

[It's been awhile since he's spoken to anyone.]

I'm not sure of your intentions, but you must know I have to go back to her. I have to finish this.

Return the sword to me. I won't go anywhere without it.

sayu_yagami

Muuuuun... This mansion doesn't sound like much fun. Do I really have to go?

...

Ehh? Don't be silly! Oniichan can take care of himself.

tempts

Dolphin. Think everyone should have one of those. Buggers are damn smart, might learn a thing or two from them. Big brains and all. 'Sides everything else falls pretty short, you have to admit. [ NO CROWLEY THAT'S JUST BECAUSE YOU HATE FURRY CREATURES. And horses are completely out of the question as are ducks. ]

You mean they talk? Snakes are good too then. Good conversationalist, snakes. You can get a whole ears worth out of one of those and they're pretty much right most of the time. Definitely give one of those to anyone. Best animal ever created. [ So not tooting his own horn over here, nope. ]

the_gokusen

Yosh! I'm ready to go, mundane. Two people, standing against the odds. Braving challenges, overcoming obstacles. Fighting with out hearts and spirits.

[She's near tears here.]

It will be glorious and-- eh?

Eh?

A sm... smu... a... no! NO. Aliens are fine and ships are fine. That isn't what we agreed to.

hypnotist

Oh, now isn't this cute: you mull over a few things — time, space, fate, science, the Doctor — and you reach the conclusion that you miss me! I almost feel like we should be gearing up for a hug, a cuppa, and a nice little heart-to-heart consisting of a multitude of "it's not you, it's me"s.

But I feel we've reached a point in our relationship where we can be truly honest with one another, and with that in mind, I can assure you that it is you. Boredom and I have never been the best of friends, but you seem insistent on keeping him around — and please, vague references to 'times gone past' and killer chairs, as it was so delightfully phrased, is hardly going to enthral me. The Doctor might have a fondness for reminiscing, but I've got far better things to be doing with my time.

—Speaking of: hop to it. The clock's a ticking and my patience only lasts for so long. I'm sure there are a few paces out there with, oh, I don't know, a pet or two to keep me amused. I hear they need plenty of attention and frequent walks to keep them healthy, happy and entertained, and we wouldn't want anyone to miss out, would we?

brbstealingpknm

....

... you do know the sparkles are fairy guts, right, idiot? Not 'shiny stuff to put in my hair' because I was sleeping when it happened.

hunting_trip

[He's quiet for a long time. Doesn't look up.]

Listen, can we just... not?

No, really. I'm begging you. Just... leave me alone. Please.

thewatchdogswife

Greetings, Miss Mun!!

Isn't it a lovely day? Yes, I know it's raining but it's still lovely and rain is good for many things. And we are safe and warm here!

Ah, I'm really glad to see you again! It hasn't been that long but I can see many things have changed, are you sure we will be all right here? Will I be able to meet Ciel? I'm worried about him, please, Miss Mun, try to find a place where I can be with him, yes? Don't be afraid, I'm sure we will do fine! Why don't you look at that place I was in before once more? I know we didn't do that well, but things are different now for both of us and I'm confident you can do it!

Don't worry, I'll be with you the whole time, we can do it!

[And if things get bad she has two rapiers ready for use and at easy reach, but she won't say that aloud.]

motherofciv

Well now, I am not sure if this can be considered a surprise or not. Although it is a rather pleasent one with the fact that you have finally written down my personal history and personality.

...Could it be that you are going to attempt to send me somewhere here?

kings_thief

H-Hey! You're reading too much into this, alright!?

I'm just trying to help and you're goin' around twisting my words into somethin' else.

You don't hear me spouting off your secrets and twisting your words, do ya?

......that was one time and definitely not the same thing.

Stop tryin' to figure out my emotions, alright? They're none of your business.

clowned

I think you're getting a little ahead of yourself.

epiccombo

So Quinn's gone. Big deal.

Shut up already. I'm not going to miss her.

queenofthegays

( and now it's time for a very serious address. )

My fellow Dreamwidthians,

I come to you today not as stranger, but as a friend; not as the future first female president of the United States, but as a humble wanderer, as adrift in this sea of uncertainty as you might find yourself. But not for long. Because, you see, though the currents of discouragement are strong, and the foreboding fins of hungry sharks draw nearer, enticed by the open wounds of aimless fear, I find myself here: swimming towards a raft of purpose, and I invite you all to come with me. Together, we'll climb out of this swirling, indecisive ocean and into the welcoming rays of a new day and a new game.

No more treading water, Dreamwidth. It's time to towel off and take a stance against this homeless problem.

( regal manner evaporates with a shake of her hands. )

Or something like that, I haven't decided on the ending yet. Because depending on public interest, a raft might be too small -- maybe I should revise that. Would a canoe be better? There's also another metaphor involving a farm. Oh! And one with a train.

Is there a train-themed game? I still want to solve a murder. Not that I want anyone to get murdered. But if it had already happened when I got there, that'd be perfect. Maybe you could send someone ahead of me to make sure one happens -- no, you're right, that's a bad idea. Then I'd know who it is. Darn! Okay, put a pin in that. I guess any game is fine, really, just don't take me to that icky sex one.

Or anywhere without Ann.

yamaxanadu

I have wondered about your choices in the past, but this time? I'm not sure to be impressed with how far you will go to make my life difficult, or be disappointed that this is what you find entertaining. At first I was hopeful that the situation needed to cause this would never happen... but I have yet again been proved wrong. No, you get a "grab bag" event... you get permission to do anything you like.

Were there no better options? Was it really necessary to do this? Not only is it a temporary alteration of our personalities, but you have legally bound us forever. Why is it so funny to force something such as "marriage" between Yukari and I? it's just making conflict for the sake of it.

wontbeforgotten

Can't say I don't like the username, even if it is a bit depressing. I know you're probably just going to keep me to a musebox when you get around to making one or whatever anyway, so it's not like it really frakking matters, right?

leftthesafetyon

Things are going well for us. Why can't you just accept that? All of your plans are going on track, the playerbases at those games seem to like you, and I'm actually talking to people who like me.

Just... let's be happy for once, okay? I miss some people when I'm in Gemini, but it'll pass. You said it yourself- it's more important that I learn who I am. If you're going to keep doing this, just enjoy yourself. You act like I absolutely need to see "castmates" like Liquid again.

inspectoring

( spoilers spoilers spoilers )

lot_sixed

Is this supposed to be funny? I'm just wondering. "Lot Sixed", mun? Really?

That's---that's not...what's wrong with you?

filming

I guess I should be glad you don't really have plans for me. Because I've got a first assembly to put together, and you of all people know how much time that takes even without plus one-ing your Broadway star girlfriend everywhere. What do say, mun? From one film major to another: Leave me alone, and I might even put a dedication to you in the credits.

- Peyton

PS: Don't worry about most of my icons being from when I was in high school. I'm not the one making history here: I don't really mind what I look like, and if the Sharpay in here doesn't know who I am, she certainly doesn't care what I'm wearing.

[That's where you're wrong, Peyton. She may not know who you are but she will still judge the crap out of you.]

perfectringofscars

Now, now. Don't flake out on me, huh? You promised that when the others got settled, and you got this break, it'd be my turn.

Hey, you're the one that said it. And I'm not picky on places to end up, don't get me wrong. But uh...not sure about this user city you're thinking about. Too many problems, and I'm just one program.
But this glitched out other-Grid? Now that's just ridiculous. I'd go nuts in under a microcycle, just looking around at all that work undone.

You can do better. Come on, just let me do the choosing, and we'll get along just fine.
Now get me that list, and be quiet for a little bit.

kidwithastick

So, uh...Mun...

Now what?

sarcasticpelican

I see you sitting there giggling.

I swear if you even consider turning me into a pony I will borrow or find a gun to shoot you with.

Dont you dare.

Ever.

devilsrighthand

No! Absolutely not! Like hell I'm going to a love hotel! You take your girlfriend to that kind of place anyways... I still don't have one, in case you forgot!

deadliestberet

You finished finally finished it did you? Well then I wish you luck in getting me in there. At least it isn't as strange as the last two or three that you put me.

binarysky

Mun, I don't get you. Things are kind of crazy on your end with the move and everything, sure, but for me, they're nice and calm and I like them that way. It gives me and Sora a chance to get to know each other for real, and if my biggest problem is that his cat peed in my shoe, that's fine with me...even if it was gross.

So I don't really care if you and your friends are chuckling about some guy with a killer watermelon. And yeah, it'd be nice to know why that other guy looks just like me, but come on. Give me a break.

Current Location: The City

itsalladream

Mun,

I really don't think this is a wise idea. But you never really do listen, do you?

zelda_hylia

I just wanted to tell you that I appreciate your actions over the past week. You could have made me really hurt some people when I was unable to control what I said, but you did not. Thank you.

kissawookie

So, let me get this straight; you pluck me out of my own life to ship me off to some game that you're going to decide on later?

Yeah, I don't think so.

rebuilding

Hello again, friend.

It's been quite some time, hasn't it? I'm a little surprised you haven't visited sooner, but then again maybe it's not so surprising, with so many different characters vying for your attention.

So then! Are you just here for a chat, or do you have something else in mind? Have you finally decided to send me somewhere? I won't deny it would be a little frustrating, but certainly interesting to spend time in a place... how should I put it... outside of my sphere of influence.

Ah, I see you don't have any particular plans at the moment. That's fine! I'm sure you'll figure something out eventually. In the meantime, we can just talk, if you'd like. I'd like that.

Your friend,
Art

forgodssakeerik

A fresh start is a brilliant way to go, my dear, and today is the day we begin walking that new path. There are a thousand new possibilities before us, and I'm excited to explore them all.

That being said, don't spread yourself too thin? It's impossible to have fun if everything looks dire, and you are in complete control of making sure that never once happens. Keep that in mind?

challenged

[A frank, appraising, suspicious stare.]

You've managed to convince me that this is a safe place to talk, so let's talk. I'll be plain: just what do you want?

There's [the faintest pause, as if she still can't quite believe it herself:] a new dragonborn to guide, the Thalmor are as dangerous as ever, the Empire- [a thousand problems there, all over Tamriel, and no way to fix them; Delphine can only spare the breath to keep surviving, keep searching, keep hanging on to the muddiest and impossible of hopes.]

....well, I just can't afford to waste any time. Maybe you aren't even half my years, but you should be able to realize that much.

plays

Missed the little deadline, did you, dear heart? All the better for you, perhaps. It's that much more time to stop floundering and start swimming! The alternative is you sink, and who wants that? Hee hee. Not that I'd complain if you threw in the towel. But I suppose I can't fault your taste - who could pass up my scintillating company?

Don't make that face now. And stop being so nervous! Best foot forward, you're representing me, and if you look bad so do I. We can't be having that. But really there's nothing to worry about. After all, God is your copilot.

Hee hee.

[replies might come from "zeitgeists" too, for a few more icons.]

ex_aptitude528

Watching you work's not exactly reassuring. Take a second and breathe. Relax. Eat something.

It's not a game if you're not having fun, am I right? Right.

[ pause ]

And when you're a little calmer tell me more about this 'City'. Very creative.

sorcerous

Must you?

Yes; I have borne a monster. This does not mean that every child I have will be a monster, nor that you may twist such a thing into a menagerie of possible children.

Sloths? A half-boy, half-scorpion? A golden eagle? A litter of momongas? And a girl-sorcerer with too much mind and too little heart.

As for the rest: patience, if you will. Keep your focus to the faith healer, to the admiral, to the telepath. I tire.

fugitively

Miss Mun. You love "finding faces" for everyone, and you know I'm speaking for several of us, and you just wanted to move us here just in case.

In case of what, exactly? In case of a single scenario you simply can't avoid? In case of a single person to tag with?

If you don't have something specific in mind for me, for us, and even getting thrown at those meme things more often would be a viable alternative... well, I can't say for the others, but I'd prefer to be left alone, all right? I could better occupy my time.

fabulousbastard

This is an interesting turn of events, isn't it?

Now, while I am a little flattered with your decision, I can't help but be disappointed in the fact that you think I'll just sit here, be quiet, and not do anything as you traipse around with your merry band of pirates. [All the smirks ever.] You know me better than that.

Homeless... forever? [Heh.]

We'll see about that.

legendary_silver

Hard to believe it's only been a week I've been at this, isn't it? I don't know how Nicholas and Perenelle dealt with this stuff for over 600 years.

I miss when me and Josh were NORMAL! I was working at the coffee shop and he was working at the bookshop and--

And why that canon point?! Can't I be from when Josh didn't completely hate me?? Can't I, I dunno, have a canon point where things were normal and I was stressing about which one of us would be destroying the world and which one would be saving it? Like when my parents were normal instead of Isis and Osiris??

I hate this!

cicatrici

Great, you've remembered that I'm still here. Now stop fucking around and send me somewhere. I don't care that you don't have a real computer right now, figure something out, stupid trash.

kindlymeant

It is not that I am ungrateful for your attention, my lady, though I cannot share in your renewed enthusiasm. I would have you remember, please, that even away from my lord father - especially then, perhaps - I must be careful to conduct myself as is befitting. I will not give him reason for disappointment, least not when I walk alongside such noble names.

As for - circumstances as they are, it is far better this way. That door may be closed now, as it should be, and so it shall remain.

I think we have issues.
