May. 21st, 2012

So it's come to this again? Don't deny it, you missed me, didn't you? You missed me, you missed me, you missed me! You can't think I haven't noticed you favoring my brother lately, can you? Make no mistake -- I won't forget and I do hold grudges, but I might forgive. It's fitting that you play us together... father and I. I am the prodigal son returning at last, while Harold returned and wasted all his fanfare.

So you haven't made a real decision yet -- can't play us both in the same place. If I could shoot him again to help you decide I'd do it. You've got plenty of time, but I don't.

I think I could have a lot of fun there.

i_am_dr_eggman

An ally? Don't be absurd!

This Loki as he calls himself is little more than another pawn in my plans. Once I have what I need from him, I'll crush him just like Tony Stark and the rest of those so-called heroes.

He wants destruction, I can certainly provide it. And while he's distracted by the battle and those heroes, I'll be moving my plans forward and soon the world will the glorious rise of the Eggman Empire!

shotdadintheass

You can stop watching. Anytime.

And- and you know, that's not really a polite suggestion, what I mean is please stop watching, right now, because I could really use some you-not-watching-anymore and I think you can keep your 'feels' to yourself while you're at it! [ AND HE COULD HAVE LEFT IT THERE BUT WHY NOT. ]

Which is a really stupid word, by the way, because you have all your fingers and know how to type the word 'feelings'! I mean come on, cutting out three letters? Seriously? It's not even worth it!

So, so good day to you. Night. Morning. Whatever.

flashiness

I don't think Valkyrie would be very happy to hear that everyone seems to be obsessed with Loki at the moment. I mean, he did make life difficult for everyone. Can you believe that it was because of him I had to work together with Lezard of all people?

Well, wouldn't you be pissed off if someone brought around Ragnarok too? I learned a lot about the gods due to it but...

Don't think too hard about it. Just go back to that piece of technology that amuses you.

middle_amazon

I caught everything despite your attempts to muffle me.

I'm...I'm in this weird zen kind of place where I am beyond rage, anger and pain. I know that story is not supposed to be mine, and yet, I'm caught there, having survived Blackest Night, because I guess all of us have been taken to other worlds at the moment. Here's the truth of this:

You will get me home.
You will get me back to my children, who will be alive and exist.
You will get be back to my husband - who I know is not this person you just read.

You want to know why?

Because I am not that Donna Troy anymore - and I never will be. I will fight this battle and I will win.

chiefdefense

So, Miss Mun, you're thinking of taking me on as a prospective partner are you?

As flattered as I am, I hope you realise what you're undertaking. You need to be a little more decisive than you're being right now- which is probably down to you being off your game with a cold, am I right?

A word of advice, steer clear of Cold Killer X.

Well, what are you waiting for? If you're serious about this then you need to put in some research. I hear it's called canon reviewing around these parts, it wouldn't hurt for you to walk into this with all your facts straight. After all, the key to being a good lawyer is to be prepared.

cansavetheworld

I understand why you're having a hard time with the new series. A lot has changed in the world, and change isn't easy for a lot of people.

But if you're curious, you should give it another try. Avatar Korra has great potential, and I bet you'll enjoy seeing her reach it.

1mistress_nomaster

... You mean my country is wondering around in human form?

[.........]

Of course. I'm just one of many, aren't I? There are... well I can't be bothered remembering how many before me, it's foolish to think I am particularly notable.

valouric

Your ideas on how to amuse yourself at my expense is detestable, at best.

itsfascinating

I'm just saying that it might be a total disaster.

Oh! And that you need a setting.

That's all.

de_bel_survivor

A manga adaptation announcement and all you're worried about is my name?

Hey, you'll never know, maybe the manga will follow the CD drama and won't mention me by name?

[> A chuckle.]

...Hm, I do wonder which path that "me" will pick in this.

[> As a monthly manga series, you know it will take a while.]

solarflair

Hey there! Huh? "Mundane"? Oh no no, that doesn't fit you at all. We need to come up with a much better name for you than that.

In the meantime, I'm Stella!

Oh, wait, you know that already.

Well, then I guess you already know that I'm ready to get out there and start socializing! So what are you waiting for? ♥

Monday, May 21st, 2012.

Happy Victoria Day.

brosif

Mundane.

In a matter of days, you have turned me from displaced warrior to would-be kingslayer to horse. But all these offenses pale in comparison to your next idea.

I am meant to bear arms, not children. Even in a dream.

turnstowrath

You dare, human? You dare to use me as a pawn in your games, as an object of your amusement?

To use any angel is sacrilege of the highest degree, but to use me, Imperius, for such a thing is unthinkable! You and the rest of your misbegotten kind can stew in your own filth and depravity without dragging a purer entity into your miserable existence. I demand that you cease your toying with these thoughts immediately, or you will face consequences the likes of which should have been dealt to your kin millennia ago!

puny_god

How terribly unsurprising, considering your awful sense of humor, that you would pick such a "user name" for me. Your claim of "you're one to speak" is no excuse.

Nor does it flatter me on your little obsession with seeing this 'film' several times. As you're certainly aware, I prefer to command armies with some actual power and skill behind him. None of this fangirl army nonsense you blather on about, as amusing as the idea is. It might be worth considering for a joke, at the least.

marysuit

Dear writer, you really believe I am your doll, a plaything for your imagination and amusement?

If that's what you want, then by all means believe it.

I made you want to play me. And why not? Your wants are a source of great entertainment, if not self-defeating. Seeking work when you know you wish for none, desiring companionship when you seek solace. Such a conflicted mind I've endowed upon you, I'm certain my twin sister will appreciate my efforts.

Yes, I think I'll get to like this game we'll play with each other.

I'm not afraid of dying.

tofindthesun

I feel you are far too amused with these planned events.

There is little to find entertainment in. I will not grieve overmuch.

[LIES EOWYN EOMER WHY YOU GOTTA.]

atrum_carnifex

I tire of your insipid little games, human. I believe you've done enough damage already.

[And a warm hello to you, too, Hrist.]

Tch!

iorhael

Some words of advice to you, since you seem quite set on making things difficult for me.

I know it isn't at all dignified as escapes go, but going out the nearest back window when things get rather tight is perfectly acceptable. I saw Bilbo do it once anyway although that was to escape the S-Bs...

technetronic

You want me to do this? Because the last time you tried this you offered to let people taser me. I don't think so. Besides the only people I'd be okay with showing up is Rhodey and Banner. And Rhodeys are like unicorns. That's right cupcake, I called you a unicorn, what are you going to do about it?

And Banner, how the hell is there a nearly full team and the only one missing is the one I actually like? [Thor's okay. But SHIELD agents and star spangled war heroes do not want. He hasn't been canon updated yet, he's allowed to be unhappy with everyone.]

So instead I'm going to do something else. [Clears his throat.] The reason why Carter, Foster and Ross don't show up in the movie and Pepper does is because she's with me. Well other than the fact that Carter's probably dead or wrinkly, but my point still stands. Pepper is the best. [He would add girlfriend to that sentence, but he is weird about defining it out loud. It's just a stable(ish) relationship okay.]

The army of me's out there would agree with me. Only the best for the most important character.

headbitchincharge

There are times when fear should stop you from doing something. [ this is so much worse than an airborne pressurized metal container. ]

bagofcats

Mundane,

Your amusement at my expense suits my would-be puppeteer ill, and you would do well to end this course of action at once. I do not exist to be the punchline to your humorless jokes, nor to submit to whatever fancy strikes you.

Respect is integral to any working relationship. Seeing as you have none of it for a prince, let alone a god, abandon this. Now.

shittydancer

Seriously, you don't think taking me from, like, right now won't cause some - uh. Problems? It's been like a year since Rachel's even seen me, hasn't it? And wasn't she kind of serious with Jesse or whatever?

I just - wow, okay. I kind of make enough bad decisions on my own, I really don't need you helping me out here.

enjoys_plan_b

ERROR. UNIDENTIFIED LOCATION. SCANNERS ARE NOT PICKING UP ANY INFORMATION ON THESE WHEREABOUTS.

YOU THERE. ONE WHO IS CALLED MUNDANE, TELL ME WHERE MY LOCATION IS.

[...]

THIS "DEAR MUN" DOES NOT MATCH ANY LOCATION ON MY SCANNERS. EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT IS GOING ON.

[And after a brief explanation..wow that is a lot of weapons.]

I AM NO ONE'S PUPPET. SEND ME BACK WHERE I BELONG. MUST ANNIHILATE DOCTOR EGGMAN AT ALL COSTS.

scheminghottea

Well, I appreciate that you've given me the time of day again, I suppose? Though I have to agree with your assessment of the situation. You're out of practice, you hardly have any free time, you haven't played the three most recent games, much as you'd like to, and we both know watching videos is quite a poor substitute for direct experience.

Still, I... wouldn't be opposed to returning with you. It's been a long time, hasn't it? We first met all the way back in 2005... seven years. Nearly as long as I was...

Well.

Do I call you "old friend" then, or is that your word for me?

Patience. You'll have to wait till July, anyway. And, well, knowing you, by then you'll have forgotten all about me. I don't begrudge you that, of course, you have your own ambitions, your own projects, and by all means: your life before mine.

...

But yes. All that being said, I'd love to return. And to such a place as you're considering..! A universe that operates on entirely different scientific principles than what I'm used to, a place ripe for study! And even more fascinating, all those conflicting personalities, all those different hearts forced to work together... all those people from all those worlds! Ha, Even would no doubt have a heart attack just from all the possibilities it would represent.

Take your time. It's still wonderful to be back--in all ways.

uncommon

So you've uploaded all these pointless icons, had absurdly excitable conversations about me and...still haven't a clue how or where best to play me.

[...]

Well. What a fascinating insight into your mind all this has been. You won't mind if I make myself scarce, will you? Don't fret, I'm sure you'll find someone else to make little square pictures of.

70th_victor

I'd thought you'd forgotten. Thought you'd left me alone.

No. No. No more games.

I don't want to play.

teenagebadboy

I hate you.

It's fun to get an innocent muse like me smashed out of me face, innit? [Voice dripping of sarcasm.]

[He then proceeds to groan and pops an aspirin pill, which he drowns with a glass of water.]

I didn't do anything stupid, did I? Except of getting onto a fight with that Finnick dude.

...

Please don't tell me I did.

getwiththegold

I keep getting the short end of the stick, I notice.

I mean, first with the whole reboot, they didn't even give me one. (I guess that just means my original story was so great to begin with that it didn't need a reset. That's not a huge surprise. You just can't beat Gold, after all.)

And that whole DCUO thing. I mean, come on. I'm a tour guide. A tour guide! And there's the whole saving me from the Hive creepy bug lady thing. Shouldn't I be the one doing the rescuing here?

They're really trying to give a new meaning to 'the greatest hero you've never heard of.'

ironwoman

Yeah, yeah, I get it. Stop being a bitch and deal with anger issues. Yep, totally listening to you here. Mmhmm. Keep talking, I understand.

[ sorry mun, tony's too busy playing a game on her tablet. anyways, hi guys, female tony... ]

frost_shrinked

You're right.

I have blamed the state of things unfairly on my father, and my brother. In time, there may be forgiveness on all sides, and now it is to me to tell Thor what I need instead of expecting him to know.

If I may read a piece from my Journal of Feelings for today:

I am optimistic, today; I have never felt so hopeful for the future.

I'm sure my therapist will be pleased.

pyrogue

Yeah, yeah, I remember working with Cadmus. And now so do you, finally. It was a good time while it lasted, but my reformation -- would it be too much to say it went up in flames?

That's not the point of this, by the way. I thought you were gonna give me up when you picked Cold? Can't really have us both, we kinda clash. Not unless you find somewhere else for me, and that's not gonna happen anytime soon.

sailoryup

[This mundane has well and truly lost her mind for picking this one up, hasn't she.]

Eeeeeeyup.

crumbled

So here we are. Once again.

Do a better job this time. And don't quit so easily.

((ooc: sliiides to bed.))

notphones

S'not exactly what I would consider a great idea, but I can deal. I lived there once, didn't I?

...Everyone's still there, right? And what the hell do you mean 'I'm in for a surprise'?

pigtailsbutterflyknives

Well, good for you. And I do mean you. Just you. Because I don't give a fuck about being there. I don't know a single fucking person and I don't like it. Dave isn't there. Marcus isn't there.

Shit. At this point? I'd settle for that D'Amico asshole. Not the dad. The younger one.

But, no. No one is there because it's been for-fucking-ever since my 'canon' as you call it has been one anyone wants to play in.

And...what...you're just gonna sit there and plot for me to be cursed as soon as possible? No time to even settle the fuck in?

You're a bitch.

ay_yi_yi_yi_yi

Ay yi yi yi yi!

I should be in the Command Center, not here.

mildmanneredtroll

I've gotta hand it to you-- technology really has gotten pretty cool in the last twenty-odd years. New ways to keep in touch, spread news, and do research. I'd like to check it out more, but I'm not going to find a lead out here and I'm on a deadline. Besides, my partner will kill me if I up and vanish on her again.

[Canon is Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman.]

saved_the_timestream

Mun, how about you actually figure out what you're going to do with me before doing things like making a journal or one of these posts.

Start small. Finish that canon review.

Then you can do things like get more icons, decide where to send me, and what canon point to take me from.

theykilledlancer

So, let me get this straight.

I'm gonna get visited by a Valkyrie, and given an invitation to fight to my heart's content?

...This almost makes up for the username, mun.

1_truth

Don't talk to me until you've finished those last two stories of Sherlock Holmes.

tjasuneresunesu

Wait! Nonononononono don't post that t—

Honestly, woman, ask next time you want to post a painting on my journal! What if MacLeod sees that?!

[He hefts his sword] Don't make me use this.

Current Mood: angry

nekojitarider

...I'm not interested, Mun. Not at all interested. You've got other Rider muses--go ahead and play with them. Just leave me out of it.

You don't even know what point of my canon you want to pull me from, so why don't you just let me go back to lurking in your headspace and quit bothering me?

glasseskink

I seem to be pretty popular today. I wonder if something's in the air. I'd ask Lois, but she'd probably think I was getting a big head or something, and we all know who's cornered that market. Still, you can't argue with success, right? Just means there are still people with good taste out there.

But really--what is it you think we're doing, here?

ochitashinigami

Dear Mun,

You ALMOST made being sick worth it. You are to be congratulated.

Tell Spears I'm very sorry I threw up on his lap.

Wait.

No I'm not.

ijustlivehere

Dude, can you just, like, not?

I mean, stop reading stuff from after when we -- you -- I left. I don't wanna know. Okay?

I just wanna go back.

This is stupid, and I just wanna go back.

allbend

Johto? I've never heard of a nation like that. What's it like? ... Pokemon? Never... heard of that either.

--Whoa, hey! I'm not saying I'm backing away from getting to know the place. Yeah, sure, I've got my duties as the Avatar to worry about, and- and probably being removed from everyone I know is an upsetting thought, but I'm actually all for exploring new places! Can't give an opinion on something if I don't even know about it, right?

Same goes for you, mun! I don't see why you should be so nervous about me when we just got started!

... what's a Mudkip?

slaegr

While I could relay several more effective ways to capture the Odinson's attention ...

[ What Loki has omitted with regards to being impressed by his mun he more than makes up for with his smirk of amusement: it's cool and calculating, much like the rest of him, with just a lick of self-satisfaction around upturned corners. ]

Bedding his human was by no means lacking.

[ He inclines his head with faux-politenes, no doubt some imitation of mocking gratitude. However, when all's said and done, we should probably keep in mind that we're dealing with the not entirely wrongly titled 'Liesmith' ... ]

A pity about the aftermath — and her reaction to it. A chained consort is of no use to me without at least some semblance of her mind, after all.

house_of_cane

What are you crying for? You got your candy-coated ending with rainbows and lollipops and all that crap. What are you whining about?

Oh don't tell me it's because you didn't get your kiss. That's stupid. YOU'RE stupid. Just take it for what it's worth and get over it.

It wasn't so bad.

Moron.

gamma_rage

Hello, Mun. I realize you never expected to have me in your head, and I'm not sure why you invited me. The . . . other guy . . . isn't exactly the most welcome of house guests.

Nor am I sure what you're going to do with me. I hope we can work something out. ~~I'd like to meet others of the Avengers, if they're around.~~

If you'll excuse me, I think one of my experiments needs attending to . . .

lover_boy

Haru, it's nice that you're supportive of me, but could you stop calling her names everytime she's around Gale. I didn't really have much of a chance to begin with and honestly, I'm just thankful for the time I have with her.

Now about this game you're putting me in, are you sure? I know you think it's for the best and I know she's there. Thank you for that by the way. But do you really want to compare me to an epic Greek king? I think you're reaching there. I'd more then gladly call her my Penelope, but I don't think I'm that smart or cunning to be compared to Odysseus. I think there are better comparisons. Prince Phillip from Sleeping Beauty for example. I know I really don't have much choice, but I honestly think you should re-think this denizen thing. And double check with her mun that I'm really wanted there. I don't want you having another problem from impetuous apping. She might want Gale instead you know.

theoperaghost

Mlle. Mundane:

It is with polite wishes that I greet you; allowing me to grace the theater of your mind once again was a wise choice, despite your choice to bring me back being decided by something rather fickle. Regardless, I am glad to return.

However, Mundane, it seems you have not learned a single thing since my absence. As I have said once before, I do not associate with anything that does not have some potential for improvement. Be thankful that I still do, and keep in mind my warnings. Those who do not listen are doomed to fall. And we would not want any disasters, would we?

As for your little gala tonight... I am pleased you enjoyed it. Yes, both Mlle. Boggess, and Mlle. Brightman at the end, were dazzling performances. They were worthy renditions of Christine Daaé. Even the man who played the Vicomte did well, as much as I despise the man. Carlotta's actress was excellent... at least, for Carlotta. Well, one cannot fault her for having to play such a revolting woman, with an even more repulsive personality. And, of course, there was M. Karimloo, the "Phantom" himself. He did well. I must admit, it was disorienting, hearing you scheming up ideas based upon his performance. Do try to realize who is the real person in charge here.

Still, you must not be so starstruck that you neglect to remember my requests. Enabled though you may have been by the viewing tonight, I still require complete obedience, and you have failed me at every turn thus far. Now, away with you. Do try to get me icons before you will me to speak again. Your laziness does not become you.

Your humble and obedient Servant,

The Opera Ghost

earthbonds

I guess I should be grateful that I'm not going anywhere. Your hands are full enough as it is.

[Eye-tick, line-face.]

I don't need to point at your track record, do I? [She sighs.] You're better off sticking with those musebox places with me.

[... a beat.] Oh. I know you have something horrible planned for me. Whatever it is, forget it.

[... n o p e.]

ibrokeharlem

So you want to put me in a huge library. Full of probably valuable books, huge breakable shelves and a bunch of monsters?

I'd heard you came up with some bad ideas, but this one is pretty bad, don't you think?

At least the other one you're looking at is in the middle of the desert. Not much for the the Big Guy to mess up out there...

Wait, what do you mean I'd have to have sex with guys?

...

I think just staying in here would be the best option. But thanks for the offer.

imfollowinghim

Hold on, you're mad you can't include any of the kidnapped and brainwashed by Soviets into a killing machine stuff in the application? Are you nuts?

It's bad enough you're talking about taking me from after I fell off the train just to mess with me and Steve. You just can't leave well enough alone, can you?

Just focus on canon reviewing. And, y'know, stick to the stuff in the movie if you do send me anywhere.

bugarallyboy

Before I say congrats on getting me into the game... Not that I'm happy about being in a tower and being told that the world I lived in was destroyed...

What's this about wanting me to be mistaken as a girl??? I don't look like a girl! I don't even sound like a girl! Stop it!

... ...Please don't edit the introduction log to put in a OoC note. I beg you please, I know I'm the biggest goofball in the Den, but I don't want to be laughed at by this!

...Oh right! Don't you have a test to take tomorrow, earlier in the morning than you're used to waking up at? Shouldn't you go to sleep earlier?

[Like Kota's any better with studying.]

At least I get a proper amount of sleep, unlike you!

whoami

You're kidding. Right? I mean, this has to be some sort of joke, because if you do go through with this, we're both screwed.

No, I'm serious. You, and me both, mun. Screwed.

You? You get screwed because you, and I both know that you don't even have the time to pull this off, and you already have little freakouts over "being slow" and other such silly crap.
Me, though? I get to deal with a whole bunch of people I either don't know, or who want to kill me. Even beyond that, there's guys in here who want to kill me enough already!

...Oh, and I'm not even going to touch that 'shipping' stuff. You've got issues if you think that's going to fly.

aphoenixsong

I admit that it is quite rare for one to fully understand the path laid out before them. Usually, death, the great equalizer as it were, is the only tool we have to see what we could not see before. And, undoubtedly, once one meets Death, there is very little point in moving forward in life.

Yet... (Here, he sighs, looking tired.) Even those who have passed yearn to repair the mistakes of their past. I cannot say that I would forego the opportunity to use a Time-Turner once or twice.

(He allows himself a saddened smile.)

My time has passed. The world belongs to others who are far more fit to shoulder the burden. That fact, I can honestly say, does not sadden me in the least.

drownsinflowers

So things collect dust when they've been left a long for a while--

but this.

[Sigh.]

and for what? A visitors event?

... With all memories in tact.

warriorscribe

There is still some hope for the city, but...

You assume he still wants to play him in the first place, Mundane. What other sanctuary is there?

what_fourthwall

No. I won't. It's not FAIR.

Go play with the robot, HE'S got HIS family now.

I think we have issues.
