I must say your taste in art is sometimes questionable. However, I believe you are the sort, unlike Cal, who could truly appreciate the work of Picasso and Monet. All it takes is the proper exposure and a generous imagination.

(Well that says something about "Cal" doesn't it?)

As soon as I am married... (The subtlest pause.) I will be redecorating our home with such artwork. Cal will simply have to get used to his wife's tastes.

(She allows herself the smallest of conspiratorial smiles.)

...Why are you making this everybody else's problem? It's not. It's between you and me, and ideas were tossed around about what you can do to fix it. On the top of the list was maybe cutting me some fucking slack? Even maybe letting me go? I-

[ Offscreen notation is go, and then Hoffman, aghast.]

I'm not sad.

[Feeling inadequate to the position currently occupying, worry about being a new warden who just graduated. unsure how to place new life with old life, unsure how much to share with friends or other people on the boat. Re-adapting to social structure completely-]

...Sad isn't on that list you stupid bitch. Nowhere. Not once.

monopolizes

A post-apocalyptic wasteland?

[There's the tiniest curl of his lips over his teeth, a quiet laugh right in the back of his throat.]

It sounds as if the surrounding population needs someone like me. Innovative, daring, imaginative -- the voice of tomorrow.

[It's clear even he finds this somewhat amusing.]

It's too bad, though, that this brave new world is nothing more than a fishbowl with tiny little angelfish scrambling up the sides in some attempt to get out.

[He examines his nails for a moment or two before sliding his hands into the pockets of his suit.]

I'm guessing there won't be an opportunity to eat out.

prayformefather

Pass. This is what, your third time threatening to send me to the ship of the damned? And every time, you decide you're too busy to fit me in. I get it. And I was totally not complaining.

I thought we had a deal. What happened to the storyline I was supposed to get about talking literature with the hot girl? Get back to work on that if you want to do something with me that badly. I don't need redemption. And definitely not on a boat where I'm gonna be stuck with people who are legitimately insane.

[ Look who's unbound! One might glimpse Fenrir's enormous hulking form padding silently about D_M as he searches for his father. It's been Mother's Day, but his mom is ... kind of a giant douchebag troll-giantess, so pops is the default port of call.

Wherever Loki is, anyway.

DAD. DAD.

... Daddy???

Oh, fine, go give all your attention to ~~that ho~~ Sleipnir. Not like ... this guy wanted it. ]

While I daresay it is not an uncommon practice for you to adopt muses at the drop of a hat, at least you have good taste.

If a deplorably optimistic opinion of an inherently inferior race.

seaspraysorceress

So, we're really doing this? Nice work pal. It'll be great to see Pete again. Gotta wonder if his worry ripples are doing any better since I saw him last.

And yeah, I know he and the Vision are married now. Quit laughing. I was twelve when I came up with the whole harem idea, give or take a couple of centuries.

trademark_skull

.... You're enjoying that they share the same name way too much, aren't you?

moomoo

Moo!

[ She doesn't have a voice to speak with -- but that doesn't mean she can't understand human words.

I don't understand what "headcanon" is, Miss Mun! I don't understand why you keep laughing, either! Am I funny? Am I making you happy? ]

Moo~!

[ She's just bellowing happily and chewin' on some grass.

I've observed humans enjoy cookies with their milk! Would you like a cookie?

But the mun is too busy crying about how she fell head over heals for you, Hannah. You little cutie!! ]

YOU HATE TIME TRAVEL YOU HATE TIME TRAVEL YOU HATE TIME TRAVEL

sammyskeleton

Yes, I completely agree that there isn't a single person I know who wouldn't absolutely enjoy the situation at hand. Yes, I completely agree that Ghastly would make plenty of friends, and that's really good, I like to think that everyone aboard would immediately appreciate him for the fine fellow he is. Tanith would get a kick out of it, of course. Valkyrie...

Well, at least Tanith would be all right to have.

But no. I do not think that it would be a good idea, and I can only hope that you keep missing every chance to bring in anybody else. They would make trouble. I'm barely scraping by. Stop lending out the books in an attempt to lure people in and just lay low for a while. We'll talk about this again in... let's say another hundred years.

...If you keep pushing, the most we're going to wind up with is Scapegrace, and I'll personally throw myself out of an airlock if that happens.

honorthecodes

No. Absolutely not.

It doesn't matter if my 'real' name is similar, to that of a char in a movie you like.

That sport is dangerous. Not to mention illegal.

godofshawarma

This is a fool’s errand, girl. You have neither the time nor the attention span for this undertaking, yet you insist on shouldering the task. What drives you so, aside from your love of the one who hats? [ her name is Hatter, Thor, and that is not a verb, stop it ] Perhaps you simply seek the glory of the potential success mastering my voice will grant you. Very well.

I like your spirit, tiny one. If it is a challenge you wish, a challenge you shall have! Onward!

manilovesteam

Hey, come on, man. App night is tomorrow. You know me well enough that you can have it finished by then, right?

macgyverd_it

Ma'am, I think we need to talk.

With all due respect I think you might be getting just a little bit ahead of yourself. Yes, we do have a really great thing going on in that 'test scene.' But to actually think about possibly sending me somewhere based off that? I think it's a little cart before the horse. You'd have to do several years of canon review not to mention finding a place that is not out to kill me every other week, and having people I know would be a plus.

But I know how things work, I have several degrees in 'how things work' even up to the cosmic level, or don't you remember that? I'm not going to get into a guessing match with you on how much you know about me or how well you understand my motivations as a person; that's a bit too meta even for me, but I have to strenuously insist you think about this.

Are we clear on this? I'd hate to pull rank but if I have to I will.

altivolus_aquila

S-S-So you want t-to take me somewhere...s-somewhere else? Away from Papa and Mama? W-W-Why w-would you do that? J-Just because I'm a bird d-doesn't mean I d-don't love them!

P-Please don't. T-Thank you.

bladeoftyshalle

You're supposed to be-- what? The one in charge of me? Like God or something?

Yeah, you can just fuck right off.

I already got a God in my head to hate.

Mm, and you feel all self-righteous about spending over a week trying to find the right "PB" (might as-fucking-well say Actor) for me, thinking you're socially-conscious and shit for taking the time to find a guy with Indian heritage. Yeah, let me just count out the fucks I give.

You? You're a Kris kinda gal. Don't get me wrong, hey, you could be great for him, or Deliann, or whatever. But, for me? I'm not even right for me. Kinda the point.

That's what you need to deal with before finding a fuck-damned game for me.

therealgenius

Of course you'd pay money to see my beautiful face. You're not alone there; the world loves my face. Everyone loves my face. My face is a work of art. Hell, all of me's a work of art, especially my genius-level IQ. You don't get much more exceptional intelligence just anywhere else, you know. I'd a damn marvel of modern science.

[Lollipop lollipop, oh lolli-lollipop...]

This one can go, though. I love sweets, but it's a little too...not sweet in its sweetness. I'm sure you understand.

Oh, and stop throwing me at everyone who, you know, hates me. There's only a handful of people in the world who really dislike me, and you've seemed to...you kind of found them all! I don't really get it so much, you know, but they're entitled to their own opinion. Freedom of speech! It's the American way, and Lord knows I love the American way.

The Tumblr tag for me, by the way, could you just ignore it from now on? I don't bronze the palms of my hands, and I'm certainly not...a villain bicycle, whatever that means.

Carry on!

andtheotherguy

No, no, that's really alright, you don't have to - I don't need to be in a game. Especially when most of them seem designed to crack people. Look, I did just fine when I was alone, I was good, I know what I'm doing. I should get back to that.

Or at least stay right here. This, uh, fourth wall?

[He raps on it with his knuckles.]

It's not any substance that obeys physical laws. I'm pretty sure, under the right circumstances, even the other guy couldn't break it down. And Tony is around, and we even saw a Betty that one time! Why would you make me go anywhere else?

vampirehunterd

Don't be nervous. You have plenty of time to get my voice down and reread all the books. Don't worry.

ex_precisions692

And here I thought you'd avoid the bandwagon. Guess I was wrong.

tobenormal

This is just an idea...bear with me here...but you might want to actually see the film instead of just reading articles on the internet and watching clips before you get serious about playing me. Just a thought.

a_father_to_his_men

I don't understand how those people who are being anonymous intend to improve the skills and abilities in the muns for my 'cast mates' though such vague comments and lack of constructive criticisms. Do they think that somehow other muns are able to divine exactly what they need to work on in order to improve their writing and 'voice'?

Admittedly I do not know the others aside from Starscream and Ravage beyond Ink City itself, but from what you have said Mun it does not seem that the accusations of lacking this 'voice' are accurate. Does that sort of thing serve any purpose except as a breeding ground for complaint and negative feelings?

trollonetrollall

...sheesh, now I'm just starting to get annoyed. I'd such high hopes, too, but it turns out you're just as irritating as the rest of 'em.

Soooooo how about you go ahead and cut out that annoying little...thing...it is you're doing? Y'know, the whole getting restless thing.

It is seriously starting to piss me off.

pheromones

I missed you too, gorgeous.

You missed me more, but still!

thatsnotmysecret

Oh… so you really think this is a good idea? Here I thought you were just joking. You don’t think finding one of these ‘games’ might be a little, uh, stressful?

[He shifts nervously and glances to one side.]

Whatever you think mundane, I guess it’s not really up to me? Might want to give someone a heads-up though. Don’t really feel like repeating Harlem, you know?

purging

You're such a fool.

Your worrying is seriously starting to get on my fucking nerves. I'm the Meltdowner, of course my plan is going to work.

Everything will go my way and I'll finally be in my proper place again. You'll see.

twoshortlives

You ship me with Abraham Lincoln, now? That's interesting*.

* A word used ironically.

sugarcube_distractions

No, don't touch me, mun. You had no right showing that dream. You could have written it out and burned it instead. I don't want to listen or speak to you right now.

bloodbrothers

We have not been in acquaintance long enough for you to peruse these bold ideals you have, nary take me through these universes as if it is your right. You've no right to tell me what to do, human. I am not interested in these miniature worlds that you've attempted to draw me into; I've got bigger worlds to far more worthy of my ruling, such as your own, worlds that will be settled in my coiled grasp soon enough. What you desire means little to me, I do what I want. I might appease you on occasion for the assurance of my continued ability to do as I like but I care not otherwise. You cannot will me into action if I refuse-- thus the crux of our situation; you desire compliance while I desire control.

But I am never above making a deal, of course.

mostlyprofessional

I would enjoy a story about [Nate and Elena]'s teenage kid coming of age and running off into adventures of his/her own, and Chloe taking the Sully role of “grizzled, morally ambiguous, oversexed badass mentor.”

No.

Even after your show, you are not going to find a way for this to happen. I'm awful with kids. [More like she doesn't want to screw them up.] And I'm not 'oversexed'; if anything, with you as my player I'm undersexed.

Besides, you have too many AU or ridiculous canonpoint ideas for me as it is. Don't get me wrong, the attention is flattering, but it's starting to border on disturbing.

stilte

[ So, anything for me yet? Any ideas? Plots?

That isn't going to put me in serious danger? Or give me wounds? I'm not exactly happy with your gleeful expression at my injuries on my back from that one Leo. Why did you let him do that, anyway?

The best thing you can do for me now is give me an Elliot. Or at least someone I know. ]

agent_romanoff

I don’t see what the problem is. It’s that simple-

[sigh]

Just...come back when you have something better in mind. I’m kind of in the middle of something.

coconutandmetal

Has it honestly been that long since I gave you a pep talk? Good! That means you're actually doing more than just a few things right for a change.

But don't let me jinx you.

Getting your butt in gear isn't what I'm talking to you right now for, that's for later. I just wanted to remind you why I'm here, what I'm here for, and not to waste your time screwing around. You've got too much to do and too little time, and trust me, I'm not the only one around here with a lack of patience. And you know who I'm talking about.

littlefishcake

Mun-san, what's going to happen if I go somewhere? Is it going to be like everywhere else in Konoha?

childofthenocturne

The small vacation is appreciated, mun. Trust me, we both need it. I'm sure Hei is thankful as well.

...Stop prodding me on the subject of that fight. He got what he deserved, and I gave him a fair warning.

Ugh, fine. I prepared something in case you went through with this stupidity.

[And he... rolls out a huge scroll of parchment.]

All right. Here's a list of banned nicknames:

Pittoo
Pittooy
Pittweety (what even, mun?)
Blapi (Japan, stop making my life more difficult)
Broody
Grumpy
Featherbrain

[...this might take awhile...]

oforder

It would be a lie to say anything other than that I have become increasingly disappointed with you, mundane. It does not require the compass to predict your actions - or rather, you inaction - at this point.

Though if you must insist on sending me somewhere, I do hope that you will not 'flake' again, to use your vernacular.

silvereclipse

I will do no such thing, child.

Least of all if Fina and Aika are coming as well.

lovesrocks

Well, this is an interesting surprise.

What brought this on, mundane?

sandwormie

Look, if the thought of jumping back into

counted_stars makes you uneasy... maybe you shouldn't? I mean, a lot of the people I knew before aren't there now, and... look, the someone-turning-evil thing was hard enough when it happened to someone I didn't actually like. So... maybe not? I'm not happy either, but y'know, if you're not feeling it, you probably shouldn't push.

...I think I could make it in

the_library .

Stop flinching, I'm serious. You have to remember, you're always underestimating me, but I'm stronger and more capable than you like to admit. C'mon. Remember the krayt dragon three years ago? And I'm good with my rifle. And I know my limits. Fearless, not reckless. Maybe sometimes I need help, but I'm not a little kid, I don't need anyone to take care of me. 'Thirteen' means something different on my part of Tatooine than it does on your part of Earth.

Maybe... maybe don't carry over Counted Stars, though. I'd miss her.

tasteslikecoconut

Congratulations, you held out for a grand total of five days. I think that's a new record. How long before you tire of this so I can get back to work?

the_right_push

I really don't see what you hope to accomplish, here. It's not as if you've got any plans to put me anywhere. Hell, you barely know why you even made this damn journal or whatever you call it in the first place.

Yes. Things are rough right now. Yes, I suppose you could use a little of the right kind of attitude to get through them. If using me to "troll" everyone else is gonna help you feel better then by all means, I sure as hell don't have anywhere else to be. Just don't use me as an excuse to neglect everything else you're supposed to be doing tonight. You know as well as I do that there are more important things in this world and that you definitely have the power to get them done. The question is - do you want to do them? Or are you just going to sit around and whine about it in the hopes that someone else will show up and do them for you? Because if that's your plan you're gonna be waiting a very very long time.

Oh no! I tripped! My friends say I'm a bit of an airhead, but I keep telling them I'm not!

[Sticking her tongue out like a ditz after throwing a mini tempertanterum about being called an 'airhead' by her friends, she makes her way back on her feet, giving an sheepish laugh.]

I'm sorry you all had to see that!

[Why is she doing this? Why is her mundane on here making her act like an idiot in front of such a large audience? But nope, she can put up with it, after all wearing this mask is what she does best. She wants everyone to think she's so cute!

When in fact she's really not...]

[How he intends to deal with such a horde of people is anyone's guess.]

Just once, I should like very much to be some other age during the summer. I do understand that being the first.. primordial being, I'm like this way for a reason, but it's so much harder to be patient with it all when I'm this age.

And dying every year does get old. .. I guess that was kind of a joke.

never_forget

Honestly, Mun, if my Lord arrived here, there would be nothing left for the others to do. Everything would be placed into order. There would be no need for squabbles or this Protection Squad the mensch have been valiantly trying to keep in place.

giveadragonsomelove

Yo! My main mun man! I got to hand it to you, you really know how to treat a player. New icons, paid account, and a game? Dang dude. I mean, it ain't even my birthday. You are one sweet mun. This is gonna be sick! That place you're thinking of sending me to sounds like it needs a little NYC awesome dropped on it. And I'm bringin' the heat. They won't know what to do with me! Plus, a break from dragon duties sounds way awesome. Vacation! Ye-ah!

[He fist pumps a few times before he starts talking again.] Just keep up the good work, my man. You and me, we'll have a bunch of fun at that place. No way anyone's gonna rain on the Amdrag parade. Can't wait to see those fizzine hotties too. You know what I'm sayin'? Yeah you do. Next thing you gotta work on is that app. I'm just gonna go lounge over here. Holla when you got that done, alright? Later!

Even though you don't understand it, laughing at a bond between men is a horrible thing!! Aniki and I are closer than you'll ever understand! Simply because you envy our relationship, you fall into fits of laughter whenever so much as thinking about either of us - it's insulting to our bond!!

owesadebt

I'm failing to see the point in this. There are better things that the both of us could be doing with our time. Productive things.

red_the_nightless_castle

About time you got me this; fifteen icons was way too cramped for a woman of my style. The edits will help keep you from looking like a total buffoon as well.

And stop worrying about what other people in "the fandom" think of how you play me. There's simply no reason to care; you are playing to enjoy yourself, and as long as you don't do anything to get yourself removed from a game, who cares if I'm "out of character"? How do they say it in the outside world? "Haters are going to hate"?

If anything, you know I cannot be the absolute worst character from Gensokyo, there will always be one more infamous.

That said, it might be best for you to "figure out" exactly your thoughts regarding Flan, if that friend of yours intends on playing her. You may think otherwise, but I do know I cannot avoid my little sister forever.

blahblahblahblah

Look, I know you think there isn't a lot going on in my life right now, and I hear you when you say that-- what was it? "My life becomes a complete shit storm" later on? ... Yeah. But, honestly? I've got a lot to deal with, too. "Older me" might have issues, but that doesn't mean my whole life is pranks, goofing off, and--

... Did you have to add "gay jokes" to the list? Seriously?

uotani

You think your allergies are bad? Give me a friggin' break! At least you don't have to wear a mask. [Coughcough.] I swear, Spring and Summer were invented just to piss me off.

I can't wait until Fall. Then all the pollen will dry up and die. [Huff.]

rabbitprince

Mundane, regardless as to what you may want, you need to remember that I will not be someone's toy. If you seek to use me in such a way, I will be forced to act.

I refuse to allow that kind of situation to ever occur again. Understand that.

glitterjesus

Oh man, you're serious?

You're seriously serious about this seriously serious thing?

Space?

You are an awesome mun and I love you. In case I don't say that enough.

But I do have one teensy-weensy question, and if the answer is no, I will promptly take back all of that love, shove it in a box, and bury it somewhere and not ever mark it so you'll never find it. They still have booze in space, right?

I mean, I'm expecting aliens, and sex, and maybe some righteous mishmash in-between if I'm lucky, but you have to promise me there's alcohol. Open bar preferred.
