May. 30th, 2012

Dad is a teenager. And evil.

Mom is childless. And oddly tanned.

Uncle Johnny is a teenager. And still pretty much uncle Johnny.

Uncle Ben isn't there to begin with.

So in the end the only family I would have is Franklin, if he goes there as well. And Uncle Doom. I guess I should count Uncle Doom.

Interestingly though, Aunt She Hulk is the same.

What worries me more is the fact I might not count with financing for my work. That would suck.

cornyinmylife

Yes, it is some lovely music. And of course Miles' piece for Arthur was included. Why wouldn't it?

My favorite? Well, perhaps. It is called gumption, after all!

alonelikeme

Suddenly I am loud, am I? I'm afraid I'm not sure whether I should take that as a compliment or not....

You need not do anything with me, if that is your concern. I do not mind catching up on my literature while you meddle in everyone else's lives.

Yours,
Cosette

gotmorbucks

You've gotta be kidding me! You're sending me to live in the poor house again?! Gimme a break!

There are so many other games you could put me in! That one where I actually get superpowers, or get wings, or ride on a spaceship! But nooooo! You wanna keep putting me in places where not only do I not get any money from home and I have to live with common peons, there's absolutely no chance of me taking over or destroying the town whatsoever!

I don't even get to be a Powerpuff Girl! What's with that?! That's not what I'm paying you for! In fact, it's a good thing I'm not paying you at all! If I could, I'd fire you from being my mun, and put you on skid row with all of the other homeless muns and muses! Find a better game, and get rid of that application you have, before I find some way to get rid of you!

javasomnia

Well look who it is! Been a while, hasn't it chickadee? You missed my birthday last year, y'know. I'll still be expecting those presents.

Ah, don't look at me like that. You know I got no hard feelings for ya. I'm in the music business for cryin' out loud, you can't have inspiration on demand, right? Take it slow, no pressure. I'll be here to back your tiny keister up.

Pff, no, not like that. I mean, 'less you want it like that.

starknaked

Stop.

I don't need therapy. I don't need to start journaling my "anger management issues and perverse thoughts". There's nothing wrong with imagining making Capsicle so nervous he knocks out a wall, or poking at people's emotional open wounds. It's what I do.

Want me to journal? Here it is:

Dear Diary, Mun, and future members of SHIELD:

Today I was pompous and Captain America went crazy.

There. Happy?

thegreatjulchen

Hah! The Awesome Me is Great, that's why you've made me an account! You can't deny it!

And you're sending me to places, too? Awesome!

Or, well.

Your choices could be better, you know.

Someplace where everyone knows how awesome I am.

But I'll make them know it, that's for sure!

Hah!

assistings

Well. This is all rather sudden, isn't it? This desire to... oh, I don't know, pick me up again? Why today of all days I have no idea and frankly I don't really care. As long as you don't mess up, and you let me do my job, then we're fine.

...of course, it's a given that you will mess up, isn't it? I don't even know why I bother.

impartedinart

[Good day, dear_mun community. Have an angsty artist.

He arches an eyebrow, unimpressed. Indeed, perhaps even a bit scornful.]

There is nothing good about this decision. You are... a problem.

[He sighs shortly.]

No, I will not veil my irritation. Social conventions are about as useless to me as most of the people who invented them.

[A pause.]

And once again, no, I will not discuss my art with you. You wouldn't understand what I'm trying to say, to show... The feelings I put into my work, which according to you, have had a corrupting influence, would be nothing to you. If you are going to dismiss me as "angsty," I don't owe you any respect.

[He's rather put out about being stuck in such a useless headspace, too. Normally, he wouldn't be so direct with his disdain.]

machinemuzik

C-cute...?

[she seems flustered, bordering on embarrassed. and then she somehow halfway manages to fold her long arms, sticking her nose in the air.]

W-well, that's not what you were saying last time we were here. Don't think one little compliment is going to make that up to me. I'm still mad at you!

((Many apologies to those of you whose threads I dropped last time I posted with her. If any of you would like to continue, feel free to reply to her here and I promise I'll do better at tagging this time!))

advisor_type

Ahaha, yeah, okay, sure you do. That's a good one! You're totally kidding, right?

...Right?

theapexpredator

While I can hardly complain about the figure you've given me-- it's attractive enough to prove useful-- I do question your motivations. There are few things I can accomplish in this form that I couldn't in the other-- this is not even Sif's body so it provides me with no tactical advantage, you do realize this don't you? You and I both know that I can appreciate a good bit of fun as much as the next God--dess, but I'll let it be known that regardless of what body I'm in I have no intentions of abandoning my plans-- I was meant to rule, and rule I shall.

Neither you, this place or my shrunken stature will change that.

So long as you understand that and do not impede on my plans I shall tolerate your continued existence while it suits me.

bibliophile_annex

Are you honestly still looking for a place for me? I thought you had given that up.

Maybe you should. Think of it as a favor to me. [Because who in their right mind would want to leave a castle as awesome as Hogwarts?]

ex_super_boy298

So, uh, looks like you're my mun.

...

Yeah.

Okay, honestly I'm not sure how to feel about this, but you've been reading so you know I'm not too sure how to feel about a lot of things. Get accustomed to that. Do you always have this many muses, or are you hoarding them?

And before you even think it, yes I know you weren't planning on using me any time soon. That's nothing new to me.

I'll be here. Forced to wait as usual.

ragingbanner

This one's... more original than a Hyde reference, yeah. Not better, though.

I don't actually like- I don't think this is a good idea. But thanks for considering me.

[A little emphasis on "me". Banner.]

It's different.

quoth

No. Really. I think it is quite thoughtful that you want to send me somewhere Garfield is staying, but is not yet anywhere, that is perfectly understandable. You may send me somewhere else, and I can await his return, or perhaps we will hold off on placing me in a game, and you can have more time to think over what it is you would like me to do.

I am perfectly capable of caring for myself, Mun. It is Garfield for whom I constantly worry.

olympicgrade

As much as I don't appreciate you pulling me away from Fringe Division, I have to admit that I am pretty pumped about going to space. It'd be kinda nice if I could skip the whole waking up in blue goo with a breathing tube jammed down my throat, though.

Oh, and feel free to consider this an official request that you try to find Agent Lee and Agent Francis to go with me, alright? May as well make it a group thing if you're actually gonna do this. [ And no, mun, she's not going to comment on the possibility of Peter showing up because he doesn't exist. :| ]

fangool

Th'fuck do you mean, sorry 'bout your tattoos?

aldabeyoun

I don't mind horrors from beyond, that's just par for the course, yeah? But, being stuck in one shape, that's just not on. Not fuckin' on, man.

not_like_the_rest

Don't you have some friends to not piss off or something?

Yeah, you're crazy like me, but still.

Riiiiight. let's just have you stop thinking for a bit about bad things and get to those applications for jobs, huh? Maybe when you get a job you won't be such a bitch.

Hey, I'm just saying it how it is. That's why you like me, right?

flaerd

[ This is the sound of a very pleased and slightly twisted laugh. ]

What was that with Thor boasting I'd lose, can't you remember mortal?

Now that is strange. Neither can I.

Oh, well.

kissfromarose

Hello, mun.

It's been a while, hasn't it? A year or so, I think.

I'm glad you decided to do this. I don't think things will ever be the same but we can always start from the beginning again, right? I hope so.

x_geminisyndrome_x

Oi, bastard. How'd you like my boot in your back? Or up your ass, if you'd prefer that?

Satchan? Why are you so mad?

I'm not mad, idiot. I'm displeased.

Eeeehh...? But.. you seem mad... Here, this bunny plushie can give you a hug. Then you'll definitely feel better!

I don't want to hug the fucking toy!!

[ sob ]

Stop that!

derivativeofx

You'll have to start over, of course. You've got it completely wrong so far. I'm not a "delusional child," I'm a hero. I can't have the person writing me swayed by whatever Resistance propaganda put these ridiculous ideas in your head.

obadiah

I've got to tell you, this isn't your best idea. And considering you're a social democrat pacifist hippie, that's definitely saying something.

hungrylikethewolf

You know, the times and places you choose to play me are probably indicative of your mental state in a far more obvious way than you think.

You might want to work on that.

Oh, and I'd like canon-mates. Yes, I'm happy with who I play with (and some I'm more than happy with) - but I don't think it's so wrong to want to twist the fabric of my so-called reality. Isn't that the whole reason you decided to play me? To fu-- my apologies. To mess with things?

Get out there. Find me my fun.

oftheturks

You really should think about this before sending me off somewhere else, mun. It won't do you any good to just rush into something and then back out because you hadn't through it through.

Pick and choose your battles, mun. You got another thing to work on right now, focus on that first. We'll see how it all goes after.

By the way? You know I need to talk to everyone and you know I need to keep track of everyone. Don't even get started on that other thing. You know what I'm talking about.

goalenu

And you sit there, wonderin' why I don't like him. You and me both know who wouldn't pull stunts like this.

inmylight_commander

Glad to see you working on that application. You know, a canon review wouldn't hurt either, and I don't just mean the game; I think you need to brush up on my childhood again. It's been a while since you first visited Camp Curahee.

[Kat chuckles] You didn't think I was going to go easy on you, did you?

lookslikekikyo

Um. It's great that we're here and all, but shouldn't you do some reviewing first? C'mon, it can't be that boring. It's not like you're reviewing for a major exam, after all. ~~Now that's boring.~~

ilovethisisland

Um... thanks? [Ao's at a loss for words. All the whisking away, man. Not cool.] But I'm not so sure this is a good idea.

I don't belong here.

diplomatique

I fear you overextend yourself too easily, Lady Mundane. All will not fall apart if you rest awhile.

formerabyssinian

I thought you were done with messing with my memories? I just got the missing ones back months ago, and now this?

[His life is such a tragedy.]

sengokunonmyouji

What the hell is a nonmyouji, anyway? I'm an onmyouji, and you know that. Don't go put an n before that.

(( It's for 'nerd'. ))

Haaah?

(( Well, you are a history nerd. And you love the Warring Sates Period, so that's why. Sengoku Nerd Onmyouji. ))

Do you know you're an idiot.

(( Yup, thanks. ))

...if you don't watch it--

(( I ain't a youkai, Ryuuji. ))

Kh..!

trianglebang

( Probable spoilers in the comments )

arcs

Now, I see what you're doing here, but let me raise you a few chips with this question: do you know what you're doing? Because it seems to me that you're walking in blind-folded. Which, considering the location, might be something you're into. I don't know.

Hey, I'm not here to judge; only to make the point that you should really be letting me do the driving. I'll judge after. We'll make a game out of it and see who can take the most cheap shots at their personality defects before succumbing to the soothing embrace of an empty bottle of Hennessy. Or Don Julio, whatever works.

Nothing wrong with wanting to unwind a bit. A remote idealistic world that no one's ever heard of? Okay, but not great. Paradise Lost has never been my thing. I was thinking more along the lines of the French Riviera if we're going for that whole "nudist colony" vibe, but I'm pliable.

And, let's face it, paradise could use a little more me, don't you think?

There's pretty much only one way this is going to go.

sailormuffins

Its really nice that you're gonna get it when it comes out, mun-lady!

...

But...but my mane and tail hair isn't that light!...is it?

Oh no, does that mean I'm turning old? But I'm not old enough to turn old!

winging_it

This "username" is hardly appropriate. I am not winging anything in the non-literal sense of the word, nor do I ever intend to.

...What's so funny?

[Mun will be in a corner laughing at him forever.]

gotthecanary

You again.

Look, while it's flattering to have someone that won't give up, you're just embarrassing yourself. I'm out of your league and you're just wasting both of our time. Don't you have enough to do with the three women you already have in that place? It's like you're trying to corner the market on estrogen.

You really think you can manage it this time? Well, the third time is the charm. Let's see how that works out for you.

bostonradical

As grateful as I am that my voice is finally heard, I fail to see the purpose of this exercise. I know full well you have no intention of placing me in one of these “games”- not that I’m complaining, of course. God knows we’ve both plenty to do.

But to drag me out here for the sole purpose of entertainment, like some dancing girl before a crowd-

Really, madam. I believe that is beneath both our dignities.

amandoes

A girl thinks that she can play me, but not well enough to do it on a man's terms, I see.

What the Red God has in mind, we shall see, for it is he that controls our fate and not you, child. A man shall play at your world, with your electronic toys, and a man will continue to succeed. Why? Because a man has been blessed with the skills to adapt and adapt he shall.

tradedvoice

I know you dropped me from that game. And that's okay. I guess we can always try that or another one again later at some point. I mean, as long as I'm here, I can still talk and see everyone. Or um, those...what were they called? Memes? Right. Meme things. Or your 'musebox' thingamabob. I'm sure you'll feel better with my 'voice' if you just keep at it. Though personally I never thought there was anything wrong with it....

And don't worry if there are not as many little pictures anymore. We managed before, so it'll be okay.

stretchy_pants

[blah blah glowstick, blah blah drunken lab partner.
long story short, there is a hairy green guy in headspace who has calmed down somewhat but is still not happy with his mun.]

mun.... hulk going to game?

[a long silent moment as he stares at this tiny woman typing his words.]

no.

pessimisme

What? You want to put me into some silly game? Ha! How childish. Don't you know there's no hope for someone as small as me outside the castle? Tell me, who will form alliances with me while I am trapped in this form, hm? Nobody, that is who, petite fille. Now, leave me be, I have a dusty old attic to return to.

coveredinchains

My dear mundane, you didn't think I would be gone forever, did you? Of course you didn't.

Now then, I grow tired of simply lounging around your mind. I understand that my 'headmates' prefer to stay out of the memes, but I find them quite invigorating. They give me a chance to stretch my legs at the very least. If I'm going to be here with you, I might as well have a little fun, correct?

whitescalesbigmouth

Mun, Quit saying that Ratchet is my robo-uncle.

...I'm not sure how Uncle Glad would feel about being replaced by a machine.

born_from_mist

Uhm... It's neat that you want t-to play me again, Miss Mun but... that moon doesn't r-really fall, does it..?!

mooimacow

I'm a complicated man.

strictmachine

I do not have a thing for Steve of all people. For Christ's sake, having lady parts does not a dame make. I don't think you're too sold on it, either, Doll, considering the fact that all my tags with various Steves have been more, what's the word.. 'broshippy'? We're friends, and he's one of the few I've actually bothered to make, so try not to ruin it, huh, Sweetheart?

Anyway, try to figure out what you're doing with me. This whole bored-in-limbo thing could drive a fellow to drink. .. Oh wait.

Seriously, though. Starks and idle hands, you know? It's a nasty combination.

sitwell

Because this is an acceptable way to spend your allocated time. Fooling around on the internet.

wakizashi_straight

All of this... for me?

[Color him ~~purple~~ shocked. And slightly flattered.]

Thank you, operator. We shall work well together.

ladygrim

[ There are many things Hogun could say, like how if you are to change a person's sex, it would make more sense to do it to one who already has the power or predilection to do so (a sorcerer, say, or shapeshifter). Or that this mun's stance on feminine strength and gender equality is noble indeed but this is not the proper forum for such matters.

But Hogun says nothing, because no matter the body, she is Hogun. ]

batmanschmatman

Let me get this straight: your solution to feeling like you need some variety in me filling in for Bruce while the city burns to the ground is to get me infected during a zombie apocalypse to mess with Bruce?

What is wrong with you?

The priority should be on getting things under control and finding [out what happened to] Bruce. We have a day left before we get pulled back to the Barge, and I'm not leaving until I know things are going to be okay once we're gone.

faustian_whispers

Oh, hello there! Did I hear that you were thinking of bringing me to a game? That's wonderful news! Well, at least I think it is. I'm looking forward to meeting all sorts of new people as well. Do you think they'll like me there? I really hope so.

Huh? Aenathia? No, I don't think I know that name. Should I?

heavenlymisandrist

If you think this will end in anything other than bloodshed, you are sorely mistaken. I will destroy anyone who gets in my way.

warmachinery

Have to admit, I'm not really sure how I feel about being picked up by you. Seems a little backwards to me.

Then again, I guess it's sort of a good thing. I mean, with all the versions of Tony out there, Pepper must be running herself (herselves?) ragged trying to keep up. Not, mind, that I'm enthusiastic about being his babysitter again or anything, but I guess someone has to punch him in the face when he's being an idiot.

reactivates

Yeeeah, that's not gonna end well. Willow's at full strength in this port, you remember that, right? And you... want me to try and trick her?

These are very dangerous waters here, mun, you're gonna get me bitten. Again. Or possibly turned into a vampire myself. And I'm not so big on the idea of becoming undead. Especially what with the type of vampire Willow is. No soul? I'm kind of attached to my soul. I'd prefer to keep it, 'kay thanks.

magicalrealist

How...why would you even want to do that to me? Can't you do something nice for me for a change? Pinkie and Applejack are getting moderately happy AUs, so why can't I get one? This is cruel, even for you.

(She says this with a very displeased tone, but it's clear that the mere thought of it is enough to break her down.)

I...if you're going to put me through that, then I don't want to work with you anymore. I already have enough trouble with that town...why would you want to make it worse for me? Do you really despise me so?

themiracle

A new world to experience, new people to meet, [and with a touch of reverence in her voice:] Users. I'm excited.

And -- [pause] -- I'll be fine, you don't have to worry. I can handle myself there, you know that.

d_m_mod

We've just added a new tag to our character type tags: "type: fusion/amalgam."

This covers characters who are either
a) original characters who combine characteristics of two or more canon characters and live in a universe based on one or both of their inspiration canons, or
b) characters who are modeled after only one canon character but "live" in a canon universe different from their source canon's.

If you're playing a character called Harry Saxon-Potter, the Boy Who Died, a rash but loyal kid who regenerated when Voldemort killed him as an infant, rose to the top of his class at the Prydonian Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and who's as tempted by Voldemort's Dark Arts as he is determined to defeat them, this is the tag for you.

If you're playing John Smith, aka "The Doctor," a nosy scientific genius who roots out wrongdoing in Holmes's Victorian London with the help of his compatriot, Dame Rose, this is your tag.

If you're playing Green Hulk, a master archer who turns into a monster when he gets angry, or Bat X, a near-immortal, amnesiac Canadian who escaped from a secret government weapons program to become the vigilante guardian of Gotham City, this is also your tag.

(As a reminder, we also have these character type tags:

"type: alternate" - for player-created AU versions of canon characters (think 'what if' characters--what if Thor was a woman? What if he was the Frost Giant child instead of Loki?). High school AUs would also go here (unless the high school is a canon high school. If your teen!Thor is also going to SEED or William McKinley High School or the Gallifreyan Academy, tag him "type: fusion/amalgam")

"type: canon alternate" - for alternates that are canonical (i.e., a canonical alternate Batman from one of DC Comics' many different Earths, vamp!Willow from the Buffyverse)

"type: canon original" - for player-created characters in a canon universe (new kids attending Hogwarts, an X-Man you've created, countries that haven't officially appeared in the Hetalia manga/anime)

"type: original" - for player-created characters in player-created universes

Long and the short of it--any character whose state of being and/or universe is a mash-up of two or more canons is "fusion/amalgam." Everybody else is one of the other four.)

Any questions, please tag in with a comment. Comments are screened.

buildindreemz

You're really intent on destroying all my decent relationships, aren't you? I mean. I do one thing that's illegal back home, and suddenly that makes me a good candidate for this crap? And Dick's gotta be the one to take us down? Dick is my best friend aside from Arthur and I'm not going to be able to look him in the eye, ever again!

And can we talk about Arthur for a minute here? Because what the hell. We haven't managed to have anything resembling a date yet and now you're saddling us with this whole backstory which is bound to ruin the mood whenever we do manage to reach the point of sleeping together?

At least I'm finally getting an inmate. Don't think it'll make me despise you any less, though.

moltenman

Two things mun: first no, I do not miss him. Why would I? His dumb jokes and the fact he seems to make those closest to him miserable are not things to miss. The other thing is this: no hunting for the Green Goblin. I do not need him on the future 'villain ship' that you want him on.

Though it is a good thing that you have me more involved in the plot. Wait. What are you planning, mun? You only do nice things when you want to torture your muses.

Mark Allan.

Current Mood: annoyed

megamagicpower

It's about time! I was getting sick of your moping! Now, do you know what would be the best way to celebrate this great mood your in?

Let's brainstorm some mega-special Magic Guild missions for June!

... ... ...

Oh, come on! Pleeeease? Pretty please with diamonds on top?

I think we have issues.
