NO.
NO, I AM NOT GOING TO SIT HERE AND WATCH YOU SYSTEMATICALLY MAKE MY LIFE EVEN MORE OF A FLAMING BALL OF SHIT THAN IT ALREADY IS IN THE NAME OF "PRETENDY FUN TIMES." I DON'T CARE IF YOU THINK I'M "FUNNY" OR THAT YOU SAY I'M YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTER. THERE'S ACTUALLY A NAME FOR THAT, YOU KNOW. WHEN YOU CALL SOMEONE YOUR FAVORITE AND THEN PUT THEM THROUGH THIS HORSEBEAST EXCREMENT. IT'S CALLED SADISM, YOU NOOKSNIFFING WASTE OF FINGERS TO TYPE WITH.
OH, I'M SORRY, THAT'S MORE THAN A BASIC FOUR LETTER WORD. YOUR PATHETIC HUMAN BRAIN PROBABLY CAN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE IT.
FORGET I SAID ANYTHING.
AND WHILE YOU'RE AT IT, FORGET ANY PLANS YOU HAVE FOR JUST TOSSING ME AT ANY GAME THAT COMES ALONG. I HAVE HAD IT UP TO HERE [he stretches on tiptoe, hand in the air, to indicate a height as far above his head as he can reach. which isn't very far.] WITH SHITTY GAMES AND THEIR INEVITABLE SHITTY ENDINGS, ALL RIGHT?
GOT IT?
...
GOT IT?
OKAY, A NOD. A NOD'S SOMETHING. SHOWS THERE'S AT LEAST SOMETHING WORKING IN THAT FLIMSY HUMAN SKULL OF YOURS. I CAN WORK WITH A NOD FOR NOW.

FOR NOW.

seashored

C'mon, mun! What are you waiting for? There's an adventure aching for us, I just know it.

sternefacade

[He stares silently for a moment.]

I don't see the point in this exercise. If you have no plans to send me anywhere, then do not disturb me.

trappedwithin

What do you mean I'm "good to have around" for when you're in a bad mood? How am I supposed to take that? If you're just going to use me as your dancing monkey then I'm outta here. Find someone else to amuse yourself with.

veegoggles

Hey! You used the best parts of me for the journal name. Cool!

But wait, where is Veemon?

politeness

Pulling me away from my squad and where I am needed isn't the best idea that you have come up with. There is little that I can do to persuade you to do other wise, it seems. This place is a bit interesting and you need to finish reading up on everything. As I have said, many times before, having me sit around does little good for anyone. So, get to work on everything that you need to do.

toiler

Picking a face for me is a bit hard when you have two in mind, is it not? Hopefully you will be able to come to a decision in time, but do not rush it. The last thing that I would want is for you to be unhappy with the choice that you have made.

Finding a place for me will prove to be a bit difficult, I know, but with looking around and finding a few options I am sure you will come up with something. This place here seems to be filled with all sorts of new face, perhaps we will come across the others as well?

vampiricism

Oh, honey. I won't lie — it's a nice change of pace, getting to stretch my legs again.

But, as you know, I've got an awful lot on my plate. Not, of course, that there's a time limit on these things, but I'd rather get what ... unpleasantness that's left to be resolved over and done with.

I do try to be patient, but I think my stint underground might excuse a little rush, don't you think?

agrat

Oh, you have a plan, and a tiny dictionary of Quebecois swear words. That makes me feel much better.

I guess I appreciate the break from home sweet apocalypse.

dolphinscry

Mun, please, take your medication. I know they're horse pills, but if it prevents you from having another fainting spell, then that's all the more reason to take them.

You have a lot on your plate; portfolio, university applications -- and the fact that you have not been eating well since last year has really gotten me, and your family, worried. It hurts them to know that this trip to the hospital was something like a wake-up call for you.

Just make sure you take those pills and get some rest. We both know how much you hate going to the hospital.

Current Mood: worried

remade_rebel

And you'd send me to a place that's not New Crobuzon but is a twisted version of it. A twisted version of a twisted place...Its contradictions will tense it up and it will break when it can't unwind.

Yes, I think I can work there, whether they know Jack or not. Jack's not a man, but a possibility, a dream that they all share. I'll stretch myself out, and like a dirigible, i'll be buoyed by their hopes. I'll remake myself again to adapt there and do what I do best. Better than the last place I was, at least. I will not miss Reggio Calabria, save for Dizzy. Give the sweet child my warmest regards.

But bring me quickly. There's a line between planning and hickory-dickoring because you're nervous, and you're inching your trembling toesies over it.

beanstalk

How about you stop wondering and don't do it. There's no point with only four of us left.

Current Mood: grumpy

colonel_clingy

Was there really any surprise that in the end, the one whose contributions managed to save the day is me? If my ultra, gorgeous Kaiser Dist R and I hadn't been there, Jade and Prince Char would have made a pair of unfortunate pincushions.

... And yes, I realize that was the same narrative used to describe the Kaiser Dist. Damages aside, that was all a part of my brilliantly executed plan.

... Yes, including the part where the Kaiser was just close enough to fall and crush Avshar's animated corpse. Just what are you implying? How dare you insinuate that this victory came from nothing more than sheer fluke...! Narcissism had nothing to do with what happened!

You're no worse than Jade.

verygassy

...Its not going to end well, is it? But I have to try, right? I mean, if you never throw a line you'll never catch a fish!

Besides...even if I don't have a successful date, at least someone will. And that's ok with me. Really.

anpan_tan

Miss, did you know that people's souls are katanas and they go all rusty and useless if you don't take good care of them? Now use that soul in the sake of cutting the strings of angst and start to write that application. Don't think too much, you're not good at it Just do it.

Please! I'll admit that all of your favourite fanarts are real photos of me, just fill that application, please!

What? No. That fanart is just the fiction of a perverted criminal...NO! Wait, it's real and I wanted it! Yes, yes, just type my name there ...gender is male...You're awesome...

Current Mood: dorky

empressingly

Now don't go reading into this too much. I would hate for you to think that I need to go anywhere. In fact I built up a nice little home in your head for visiting purposes but that's as much as I'm willing to give you. Why not go play with those other pretty girls and let this one take a longer catnap?

And one more tiny detail...stop going on about us being 'creepy monsters'. That's so mean and I would hate for anything bad to happen to someone who speaks ill of others.

whitemoonhime

Mun. Please I have no need for 'castmates.' I'm perfectly fine on my own. I can handle things. I can take care of myself. Certain things happen for a certain reason and this is one of them. I'm sure the others have more important things to think of than me. Alright? So please don't look for any of them.

Current Mood: calm

skirtcladgunner

I'm serious, mun--knock it off. The only thing I'm happy with you about is that you plan to let me tell him how much of an ass he's being and what exactly he's done. It probably won't do much good though, considering how stubborn he is about his own feelings. ...I'm not the same way!

As for your other plan... while I wouldn't mind Riddler knowing about that, I've done so well in keeping it a secret from everyone there. ...I've done so well in keeping a lot of things secret. ... That doesn't mean I'm being stubborn like Yuan! It means that... it means that I'm scared. Are you happy now?

By the way, just because you've decided Jeb and I have allowed our relationship to be more open-ended due to how these games have affected us doesn't mean you're going to get worse where things with a certain prick stand, right? ... ... ...I should have known, but don't you dare make Jeb put up with him there too! I don't mind the troll kid flirting with Jeb because he's nice to him, but that blond ass would just be cruel to him. Jeb doesn't deserve that.

spiritofthemoon

I'd love to see everyone again, mun, but you have other things you should be worrying about right now. Not as much as you used to, maybe, but still a lot. Just make sure you take that into consideration before really considering a place to put me.

carcino

( trolltext cut! )

drawnthatway

Anything at all. But if he's not at this place you want to send me, and he's not in any danger, I don't see why I should.

I know I'm just a toon to you, but I'm more than that. I'm a woman and a wife and I have my darling Roger to care for. He could get hurt without me.

silentgamer

[He's sitting in a corner chained up holding a white board up with nice neat writing.]
'Why?'
[He doesn't like his history at all: Being captured and kept as a pet by Beyond Birthday isn't exactly on his to do list.]

falsities

I d— I don't think this is a good idea.

[ More quietly: ] Sal'll get mad if I'm out too long.

nottalittlewolf

Look Mun I don't mean to be harsh...but it doesn't matter how many games you look at, or how many icons you give me if you don't grow a pair, write an app, and join.

If you're that worried about how games will turn out why don't you try looking for dressing rooms instead?

satana

Are you forizzle right now? Oh, no, no no no.

Look, I don't care whatever deprived childhood you had to roll around in, cuz if we're getting up into the compare and contrast contest, oh, honey, am I ever going to win, and have I got the stories to prove it. You could crack out some junk about dirty hobo uncles stickin' things where they don't belong or dragon fighting or whatever and it still ain't gonna be a good enough reason for you tossing this lady to the dogs.

You hearin' me, muchacha? Because mama doesn't care who's got the puppet strings so long as she's got the scissors. And I don't do horror flicks. Sure don't do spaceships.

Especially don't share headspaces with dudes who smell like they've been rolling in llama yarf. Lemme out. This is not happening.

sinsparrow

Why do you keep trying to decide if this is something I want? This would mean having a purpose here again, wouldn't it? I've sacrificed enough of myself already for that reason to know that there's nothing holding me back from doing it again.

You keep thinking about all the ways I could regret this. All the ways I will regret it.

And that's entirely missing the point: regret is something I live with every day; loss and death are already part of who I am. And-- I don't want to go on feeling lost and meaningless.

watchher

With everything going on at the moment, not least of all the ridiculous situation with my 'wife'... this is what you choose to focus on?

I fail to understand what has you so excited about this, this Nathan Wallace fellow.

... it can't possibly be that amusing.

schrodingersghost

...Are you insane?

Okay, I take back everything bad I ever said about you. Just don't make me do this. Please?

...Definitely going to need therapy after this one.

cutsbitches

bosomist

Let us be quite clear from the start off, shall we?

It has been approximately close to nine months since you and I last came together, Mundane. While I appreciate the interest and more so than that, I do appreciate that he will be there, I would very much like to remind you that I am far from an easy task master. Your determination would be admirable if it were not so decidedly foolish.

My only consolation is that you are not sending me in to be on my own. It would not be so unforgivable as much as it would be pointless and entirely futile.

bettingonyoufiregirl

Well. [amused look because kid, you're something else]

I'm glad you decided to take things seriously and re-read Katniss's books before you decided do anything.

[What he's not acknowledging and what they're both aware of is that she's posting-rather then canon-reviewing and THEN posting. Ah. Irony.]

useslanterns

Hey, uh, listen.

I don't mind the attention, but I don't think sending me somewhere--anywhere--is such a good idea. I've seen the places you're thinking about, and they're not exactly safe for someone like me.

[she gives a shake of her head, shoulders stiff.] I'd just be a burden, a damsel in distress, and I don't want that.

You understand, right?

mightymorbid

Your definition of 'good news' leaves much to be desired, Mundane.

canenotneeded

I understand that this is new and exciting for you, Mun, and that you're getting very attached to your new fandom, but does this hunt for--what do you call it? Right. "Fanfiction". Do we really need to continue this?

The ideas it's giving you are...worrying.

Stop smiling like that. [:|]

glassesflash

Oh, so you did decide to start looking. What with your busy schedule, I wondered.

So let's talk business.

Positively no risque games. Lord knows I get enough for the Host Club.

I absolutely refuse to go somewhere if you don't dedicate the proper time to it.

[And then there's a familiar gleam in his eye.]

Oh, and do make sure it's a place where Haruhi and I can finally elope. I'd like minimal interruptions during this... joyous occasion. [HE IS TOTALLY TROLLING, KYOUYA YOU JERK.]

keepsabox

I know Ion makes you nostalgic, didn't know it'd make you so much you tranfer me over to this site.

And games? I really don't have time to play games. I mean I have an important job to do...

...and I can tell you aren't listening.

lostallhope

"X-Men: Let's Go"?

Talk about a joke.

Maybe I'll get my own version, though. Something like "Lights!: Destroy them!". That'd make people laugh. For all of the five seconds it takes for Primal to tear out their throats and Transonic to spear right through them.

I think catchphrases are growing on me.

keen_incisions

So you've made up your mind. I've seen what this town is capable of, don't think I haven't spoken to everyone else in here that you've subjected to it.

...stop looking so gleeful. All I wanted, after everything, was to finally rest.

But...if you say that there's some way I can help...

Current Mood: discontent

bindsthedead

Why do all of those worlds have Dead in them? That doesn't sound much like a 'vacation', and my duties to my own world will be left undone, if I am not there. Please, reconsider.

bbinatrenchcoat

I'm not fond of this username, Mundane... The name does not suit me at all.

Although I appreciate the paid account and icons.

Why are you laughing -- what's so amusing?

fangyunoerba

I 'ate t'sound like a broken record mun but.... Are you kiddin' me? [A hand falls to her hip as she narrows eyes at her mun. Mun blinks, looking confused.]

I'm not even gonna get inta all the screws ya got loose but whateva you an' this Light mun got planned don't expect me t'play along like sum good little pup. [Mun frowns, Fang continues unphased by this.]

Ya talkin' about gettin' your 'and into a small group game when ya all ready workin' on enough stuff to make most normal people's 'eads spin an' what exactly are you tryin' to pull on me? Ya've been giggling like a loon all day. [Mun zips lips, Fang looks unamused.]

Mun, I'm not afraid to make ya life a livin' hell if you try t'pull sumthin' I don't like. Ya know that, yea? [Fang smirks. Mun shifts wondering what exactly Fang has up her sleeve.]

((OOC: Shameless small FF13 group game advertisement here~ Looking for castmates of canon and/or AU origins~!))

doll_master

Alright....You made the account.

Are you going to leave me alone now? [ I doubt you will. ]

tuliphead

So...it's not just that you're excited about my series being re-released. You're also hoping this means good things for that Sailor Moon girl?

No, I'm not feeling neglected. Why would I feel neglected? It's not like you had plenty of opportunity to buy my series when it was out from that other company. And it's not like you never finished collecting the last two volumes of the manga or anything like that. And it's not like you dropped me and have been playing that chibi rabbit for years now. So of course I don't feel neglected!

And did you really have to choose this username when we made the move?

lifewithoutrest

Why do you insist on torturing yourself?

Yes, I am aware I'll be required to die, but perhaps you should consider exactly how long I've been alive. I have led a fulfilling life, had rewarding work. And despite what you may believe, this isn't an end, so much as a new beginning. You understand as well as most what I've lived through, so you must also understand the appeal in escaping it all, even if only briefly. I'm content in my life, but I've made my peace with death.

You've no need to worry.

womanwhobeatyou

You just cannot seem to stay away, can you, Miss Mundane? It is good to see you crawling back, but do remember that if you insist on these little dalliances, you should at least be prepared to play the game.

Time with those I've met, Miss Mundane, we should really spend it finding out what they like.

britannianhime

Oh my. This place is definitely different and certainly there are new faces here. Along with that, thank you for the new icons. They are quite lovely. The ones that you had were fine.

Also, do you know if my family members are here? I know I've been quiet but I miss them!

Current Mood: peaceful
Current Music: Knorkator-Bose

getsthelastword

Oh, very, very subtle. Well done.

[Oh yes, there's a sarcastic slow clap in there.]

I would never say something like that.

foryourvices

Hey Pal. I appreciate a vacation as much as the next person, since Vice has gotten pretty dull.

But why that place? Look at the broad in charge! Seems like a bitch to me.

Hey -- Don't give me that look. You know I call them like I see them.

Besides, she could stand to lose some pounds.

shinigamisgrin

Heh. I'd been wondering when you'd decide to dust me off and give it all another shot.

Not that I'm complainin', really. Just have fun and run with it. You did last time, remember?

Wouldn't mind having the guys along for the ride.

kneecaptain

There you go. Not really dead, and still better off than Jason Todd.

blue_eyed_devil

What's wrong with it?

If you don't like that name, then just have someone call it something else. I don't see why it is important to you.

...Why should I thank him? I never asked for it in the first place.

sunstorm

Heathen!

You will not profane my duty by pulling me away from it, and the stellar sphere I need to be present in to fulfill it, if things go as you are hoping they will!

I have been patient with the abominations present, with the doubts and opinions defiling the light's presence... And now you wish to take this sacrilege further?

Patience and mercy are virtues the oracle and the light both extol, but my purpose requires me to set these things aside as necessary. And do not doubt; I will do so if you persist in this folly!

puny_parker

So...I'm probably the last person who should be telling you you're obsessed with something, but looking at the new PB you picked out?

This Back To The Future kick you're on is venturing into some kinda weird territory.

gentleman_thiefal

Mlle. Mundane,

I am pleased, nay honored to be included in your precious repertoire of muses.
However.
I would be delighted if you were to finish reading up on my exploits that you are so enjoying.
After all, they were the inspiration that brought me to being, non?

We shall hear from you again soon.

I am
Very sincerely yours,

Arsene Lupin

snipins_a_good_job

Y'haven't even played the game, y'bloody lunatic. What part o'this sounded like a good idea?

[Looooong stare.]

Well, that bein' as it may the least y'could do is actually look for a place to send me. Since you enjoy makin' my life so difficult I might as well spread the love, yeah?

altitude

Can't say that's the worst way you've re-found a voice.

Just... when I was gettin' comfy in back, though?

Could we not hang about uselessly this time? Don't really care if you do this "musebox" shit until you stop being crazy; but bein' passive annoys you and me.

Get writing. I can do more than just watch.

Watch me.

ofpleasure

Oh? You really do think you're capable of this.

I've been needing some entertainment.

dewandglass

( Cut for suuuuuper annoying courier and text quirks. )

underthepines

Mundane-san, I admire your dedication to scholarship in this instance, but truly, it's not necessary. I've done my part - the future is in their hands, now.

withapickle

No. No. No. Stop it. Stop- following shooting stars and wishing on dreams and- things. Whatever it is you're doing with this, I don't know. Stop believing in yourself. It's embarrassing and simultaneously depressing, like...other people's ugly children or Manny attempting to navigate social interaction.

You're too English to play me. You sound like you wear three monocles at once while claiming things in the name of the Empire and pretending you invented tea. And you have too many feelings, they get everywhere. Deeply unpleasant.

traken_master

Congratulations. You found me a game with due speed. I'd be pleased, if it weren't for one, small detail, human.

You've taken away my ability to disguise myself!

That it's only at one of our games is not the point, you stupid girl, nor is the fact that it's an ability you've generally neglected. Of course, I can manage without my ability to disguise myself, but it won't be as fun. It will make luring people into traps much more difficult.

You will ask my permission, before you ever do such a thing again, do you understand me, girl? Or else, you might end up regretting that I still have my compressor.

I think we have issues.
