Oh, come on. You knew what you'd signed up for. Starfleet captains have to perform acts of dubious morality sometimes. It's the nature of the work. No one likes it.

[sigh]

But yes, I know.

I know.

Torture...

questionauthority

At this point, the only question on your mind should be, "When?" For you already know what is going to happen. You know where. And as for who? Well, who better than yours truly?

But why?

[The Riddler sighs, shakes his head with an obvious smirk.]

Come now, friend. Do you really need to ask?

wiccawonder

What exactly do you think you're doing?

You're having a sudden attack of nostalgia and now you're calling it a canon review. But remind me again what you're planning on doing after you've reviewed my canon?

That's right. Nothing.

Look, it's fine if you want to play with me - as long as I can get back to my sisters - but you seriously need to stop and think this through.

accelerando

A magic castle? That doesn't sound too bad. I'll be fine, don't worry about me! Even if my friends aren't with me, I'll work hard and make new friends!

It sounds like a nice place. I can sing every day, just like Major Land or Kanon Town. And I can just ask the castle for cupcakes? That sounds-

[ Sudden stop. Urk. Face suddenly turns... well, see icon. ] Wait. Did... did you say... gh-gh-ghosts would bring them to me?

I TAKE IT BACK. I'm not going. I'm good right here.

priest_of_salvation

What's all this? You tryin' to sway my beliefs?

Y'know as well as I do that's not gonna happen, even if there are so called Gods in these cities you're lookin' at for me, y'know my views, there's only one God, so good luck with that asshole.

Like I even give a shit anyway. Everyone's gotta die some time, Ima treat this like a holy crusade. See how many of those suffering bastards I can grant some salvation to.

Now ya'gonna get outta my hair or what? Haven't you got paper work to do or someshit? Beat it.

selfdoubt

[.... and this image rofl.]

B- But, I would never--!

deshu

Mun?

Doesh Potpourri get to go where Ichuki is?

flagrate

O-oi. Are you sure you should be doing this if canon-reviewing makes you cry? I miss the old man too, but—

Yeah, I know that's not all of what makes it bad. I wasn't going to mention the other part.

theangryturtle

You know you've put me a lot of places. Most of 'em sucked... okay, I didn't mind the village so much. But after that, every idea you had? It's been bad. Way bad. I mean, what's gonna happen when they find out I don't need a Butcher imprint to be crazy and violent? You think they're going to be like "sure, let the big green killin' machine hang with us"? No! Don't be stupid!

At least Mike'll be there. It'll be-- good to have someone who gets it. I just--

-- man I hate saying this but-- I almost wish it were Leo. Don'd be miserable. "Ditch the tech"? He'd cry himself to sleep every night over his diodes and wires and thingamajigs.

Yeah, I get that's why you're bringing me and not him. I can survive. Crap, in the midst of all this, I can probably thrive.

But I still think this is probably a bad idea.

chestnut

The Lancelot doesn't make 'funny noises'. I think that's just you, mun.

Lelouch, however? Does.

corruptedsouls

I... feel strange...

[That's understandable, Toby. Seeing as you were written quite a while ago, I had to do some updating, polishing, and cleaning to get you in a better spot. You lost all of your game memories from Witches Reign, unfortunately, but it's not something that can be helped.]

...Oh... is that... why...

[Yes, that's why.]

...I remember... a blue Moltres...

Why...?

[That's... not a Moltres you're remembering, Toby.]

Then... what is it...?

[Oh, I'm sure you'll find out when he shows up. I sincerely doubt Marco is going to let this go without tearing me a new something.]

...Hm...

cueexplosion

Yeah, I was pretty awesome, wasn't I?

Now, go get icons from that incident with Time Man and Oil Man.

robusty

Wow! This is so fun. You've been wanting to play with me for a really long time, right? And now you're finally going to do it! ♥ What's that I should call you, again? Mun? Okay!

I hope I'll get to meet a lot of cute friends there. That's what the others say happens. Though some of them get really mad and they say you'll do bad things. Don't worry, though! I can take it! I'm a lot stronger than your other friends! I'm ready!

Speaking of them... That other guy is really mad I took his place! Do you want me to silence him? ♥

Current Mood: anxious

youshouldnthave

So you watched the movie once and "fell in love" with me. Not that I blame you. I'd slow it down though, tiger.

Last thing you want to do is bite off more than you can chew. Trust me.

whatisreality

Seriously? You're seriously considering this? Two episodes in and you're off to the races. Great. And dumping me on some computer network? You realize the government is constantly monitoring your every mouse click and keystroke, right?

You must have something better to do.

500men

Look, just because your life isn't going how you want it to doesn't mean that you have to go around and screw with mine. Or anyone else's for that matter.

...You get on the horn with Peter's writer right now, and you make sure he understands...it's not my fault. It's yours.

space_monkey

No, no. I said no.

Writing the start of an application for a game based on nightmares is not what I mean by the word 'no', and you know it.

And you're not listening. Great. You're even worse than Jack on his bad days.

...Mun, am I going to have to destroy your music collection?

I don't see why 'Me x Trevor ' has to have a playlist, I don't even like the guy.

~~Seriously if I hear Lady Gaga one more time...~~

fifth_kazekage

[Gaara is completely drenched in blood from head to toe, and it doesn’t bother him one bit. It’s actually kind of liberating. This is a great distraction from his aching head that has to think about who or what he really is.

He smirks coldly, lifting a dark stained hand to string along one of the monsters before tearing it apart limb from limb.] Fool… I don’t need to be restrained.

It’s been so long since my last game. Let’s play.

Current Mood: crazy

I'm surprised that you actually went through with it and finished your icons in record time.

...

So now what? You're not exactly known for your planning skills, mun.

astormcoming

Well, aren't we getting all ahead of ourselves.

I'd put my money where my mouth is, if I were you.

julian_bashir

While reaching out is a good idea in theory, you do have to remember that it's been over fifteen years since my "canon" was at it's peak. Seeing someone like Leeta here would be nothing short of a miracle.

I think it would be fascinating to meet persons from the "reboot", don't you agree?

demon_mordu

Hrrrrrn?

[The bear sniffs the air before padding heavily over to a stream to drink. His ears flick up, picking up a sound. He is unamused by the things his Mundane subjects him to, especially interacting with other Muses.]

[He rumbles]

[Really, Mundane? I expected more of you. This isn't what I had in mind. I'm glad you picked me up, but dropping me somewhere where no one understands me is hardly fair. *Sigh* More of the same, I suppose. How unoriginal of you.]

Current Location: The Scottish Highlands

jellin

Ha! I knew it was only a matter of time til you got sick of those two and came crawling over. Three years? Boooooring. You sure had some shitty taste, but it's finally Envy's turn, huh? Took you long enough! Now, how long do I have to sit around in here til you get her out and bring me in instead? Trade in the old hag for a fresher model! I'll bet she doesn't let you do anything interesting, but if you work with me... hey, don't you want to stir things up? Don't you want to be someone? You already know you'll have more fun like this, so what's the big holdup?! It's a no-brainer, unless you're as dumb as you look. Come on, come on! Don't be lazy now!

... Yeesh. And here I thought the average human was slow--turns out they're even leaving you in the dust! Hurry it up already, bitch. I don't have all day here.

soangryicouldtinkle

Come on, you can do it.

Just dig up the app.

I promise it'll only hurt, and never stop.

5dontlie

Mundane, I appreciate being dragged out here away from that bear and the gilded gold stick.

Still, I don't like being plucked up in the middle of a job only to be dropped down in some other place. I've got contracts, you know? A girl has got to keep her reputation in this business.

Current Mood: annoyed

durlan

I feel like I should be surprised by this.

Honestly, I'm not.

[le sigh]

Just who is the actress here?

carrolling

Of all the silly nonsense, this is the stupidest tea party I've ever been to in all my life.

castsbackwards

You haven't fangirled this much since The Avengers came out.

Also, do not bring more people up here! It's cramped enough as is.

...but for the record, it was kind of cool.

therealist

My my, this is an interesting flight of whimsy, isn't it? How strange, calling upon someone such as myself in order to delve further into the disdainful fantasy that is this game of role playing. All things considered I should be quite cross with you, yet I cannot seem to find it within myself.

"Fantasies" shaping "reality".

A fascinating conundrum. You'll let me study it further, won't you, dear?

pikajanken

Um, Mun-san?

You're already thinking about sending me somewhere? At least it's not like that scary Mayfield place you have Keroro-kun and Saori-san at.

Don't worry, even though Miyuki and the others won't be there with me, I'll be strong.

What do you mean I won't be alone? Oh you're planning this as my starter pokemon? It's so cute! I'll name her Candy since sort looks like her!

selfhelpspells

I can understand being a little nervous about this; it has been a while since you last--"played" someone was it? You shouldn't be. Really. I'm not that complicated.

Though I do have to question your sanity a little. I mean, there? Really? Like The Cube wasn't bad enough you want to see more. This is why your friends give you odd looks.

hyuked

Okay, I get it. I can't do a thing about this. But I'd really like to see Max again. You can do something about that, can't you? I'd really appreciate it.

lamentless

Listen, I know this goes against how this stuff usually works here, but...I trust you. If you want to get to the bottom of things as badly as I do, then we're good. That doesn't mean I want to throw my life away. I'm...not doing this just for myself, this time.

For now, let's just do what we can. If I can get to the bottom of the Tower without getting hurt, then I'd prefer it- but don't be worried if I do get killed. I guess that's the point of all this- I don't mind dying for progress. So don't worry about me so much.

3_butterflies

I-I-I'm getting engaged?!

B-b-but... we're only good friends! And he's a human!

I-It doesn't matter if it's just for an event! W-w-w-what are the others going to think? What is Mister Adachi going to think?

I'm going to go hide...!

butwhytho

Oh, you're going to take me seriously now. You're going to actually take me into real consideration. It just took Harry. It just took seeing my dead best friend who literally hated me until the moment the only girl who ever meant anything to the both of us was stuck in a taxi cab in a web for you to actually remember why you liked "the Tobey movies" in the first place.

That sounds a lot like trafficking in human misery. About time, but it took that? That's really messed up. I hope you know that.

I swear, if you start in on the whole "Peter living with Tony and Steve" crap, I will web you in the face.

fishyfangs

So...a human war, is it? Using others to settle their quarrels with this United Earth...as expected of humanity. They fight their battles to expand their control and resources, not for honor or pride! What is the point in victory if it is not achieved with your own two hands!?

Relying too much on the strength of others, not their own...they'll never overcome their own weakness.

VERY WELL MUNDANE!

I will go not to fight this war, but to show them the error of their ways! Starting with an immediate change in their diet.

I only hope there are enough Sardines for the entire population of Earth, because it's all they're going to be eating for Quite. Some. Time.

chinderella

When I said I don't want to be made organic, I meant I don't want to be some freaky organic. "Only some of the time" isn't a compromise, it's an insult! What about that other place -- the one that's not crawling with Decepticons and weird organics with freakish powers? Why can't you send me there? Are you even listening to me?!

You're actually going through with this. I can't believe it. You're sitting there telling me I should be grateful I'm going to be less of a complete abomination than I thought I would! All due respect, you're gallons of oil short of a full tank.

glasseskink

I'm flattered, really I am. Even if not being "as boring as people think [I am]" is a fairly backhanded compliment. But you know as well as I do that you have prior commitments. Responsibilities. Other characters who need you. Look, I'm pretty familiar with the concept of dividing your time between lives. But there's a balance. You're spread pretty thin as it is, and I can't help but think I'm just the new kid. You don't want to burn those bridges. If it's meant to be, I'll still be here, right?

Oh, and by the way? I'm not sure filling the same niche as Jim Kirk "except he's a virgin" really hits on the crux of the distinction between us. I know it was a joke, but it's pretty crass. I think the good captain agrees with me.

unionjackoff

You're worrying? Again? Shite, if it isn't one thing with you, it's another.

Current Mood: lonely

freezings

Damn it, mun - I thought you were over this whole 'trying to play me' gig of yours? I can't believe you're--

You know what, just as long as you're not going to mess with me or my life, the way you did last time you did this? Then we won't have too much of a problem. All right?

fatherlord

You realize you need a personal journal first?

vdova

I know you're excited about Steve's new movie, and the apparent fact that I'm going to be in it, which means that your "OTP" will hopefully become canon. But I really think you should focus on what you've got going on right now. We're still without a Thor. You really should try harder to find us one. We could use him.

And, yes, I know the decision was ultimately mine- but that doesn't mean I like it any. Stop pushing me to get back together with him. You're just making it worse, and I have more important things to worry about, like those monsters taking over the island.

So focus. And get to work on those damn tags, they're practically festering in your inbox.

zazz

What the hell do yew mean I'll be a regular jegoff in this "game"? What kind of shithole of a game doesn't lemme keep ahll my money, and servants . . . ahll my boooooze? Who'll make my sammiches? I sure as hell ain't makin' my own sammiches! I don't know how hot the ahven even hasta be for that!

Tell ya what, make yer own game, base it on Mordhaus. People can join that with me to make my sammiches. All sorts of sammich events, heh. One day they hafta successfully make me a pbnj, the next, uhhhhh, bologna. Yeh, who wouldn't fuckin' want t' play in that game? . . . .

Look, screw yew, too, I dun care aboot ahll the kewl powers I'll be getting! Jest make me that fuckin' sammich already!

hopeinthedark

I appreciate your enthusiasm, really I do, but don't you think it's a bit soon? I do like the Selina you're bouncing me off of though. Maybe you can get a Bruce and Commissioner to test me with too.

Thank you for picking me up though. It's nice to know you believe in me.

((ooc: There might be minor spoilers in the comments. Tread with caution.))

followsthecode

You like werewolves, and yet you pick me up all of a sudden? Because that seems perfectly logical.

[BUT BUT. WHAT HAPPENED AND ALL THOSE FEELS. CHRIS. SERIOUSLY. Chris only frowns tighter, all humor gone from his features.]

It'd be probably best that you don't bring that subject around me, hm?

shakespearealien

"The night is warm and clear and without wind. ..." What a nice translation of Leopardi's poem you found for me. Thank you.

You almost forgot, didn't you? This marks our fourteenth year together. My fourteenth year of me telling you that you should spend less time feeling sorry for me and my fate, and more trying to learn from my story.

And speaking of learning, the anxiety you seem to display so frequently lately is thoroughly unnecessary. In the Bard's words, "The readiness is all", and I suggest you go back and read that whole line of Hamlet's, in case you have grown tired of hearing it from me. Change could come at your door at all times, and it is only natural for it to be so - being prepared for it is what matters. And I know you are.

May our fourteenth anniversary be joyful, mundane.

... Ah... one last thing.

Thank you. For being my friend.

- Gorthan

cross_mirage

Mun, is it? I'm glad that you decided to pick me up, although please make sure you know what you're doing. I have enough recklessness to deal with.

Now then, let's work together and I wish the best for you.

nightwatcher

All these swords and they all should be pointing north instead of south. I cannot fathom why the men of my generation and the next simple cannot find more important matters to concern themselves with. Who rules the Seven Kingdoms matters not, all that matters is the welfare of the realm itself. Grow weary of hearing stories of these fat little lords that sleep so peacefully while waging meaningless wars all for the sake of an Iron Throne.

You, milady, know this well. Therefore, don't humor me with needless thoughts of revenge. If you're so brazen to claim the First Ranger of the Night's Watch as your muse, then you certainly know where my oath lies. For the sake of the realm, I shall fight until my dying breath. However, for the sake of mindless politics, I will not even so much as lift my sword.

[ A thoughtful pause claims Benjen for a brief moment. He's obviously disturbed by the thought that came to mind. ]

...Although, I certainly cannot stomach to think that I've lost more at King's Landing than I have during my missions beyond the Wall. I do believe that the monsters that hunt for our blood are more compassionate than we are to each other. A crying shame, that.

[ A scoff of disdain is heard. ]

This winter shall be a long one.

southerner

Ma'am, I appreciate you takin' me out of the dust but we both know this ain't goin' nowhere.

[A beat.]

Better name this time 'round. Just sit this one out 'til you get things worked out 'cause I ain't takin' no blame for you.

goggleears

Mun, is it? Well, mun, as you really should know by now, bandwagon jumping isn't exactly my style. Rushing into things without planning... well, it isn't unless there isn't another choice. I'm adaptable. That doesn't mean I don't stack the cards in my favor. After all, who says a girl has to fight fair?

toughenough

Do I look amused? I didn't think so. Don't event think of putting me THERE. I'VE HAD ENOUGH.

forapromise

Is being homeless really so awful to you? I don't think it's such a bad spot to be in myself. My feet were always meant for walking. Point me in the right direction and I just might follow that path.

Don't take too long though, alright? After all, we've got people to see and promises to keep. [and bodies to steal i mean]

[ooc: taken from chapter 214]

fightsfor

No. This isn't a game -- I can't just leave Argon. The uprising is still depending on Beck becoming Tron, and he's not ready. Not yet.

I won't stop until Clu's control over the Grid is broken. Come back then.

copperkitty

What am I supposed to do with this?! It's not my fault that everything happened the way it did.

[If anything Cheetor, you should be covered with these stars.]

amadmansshadow

Your insistence that I do something is quite bothersome mun. Even more so when your plan is simply to have me be pestered by various annoyances.

I am also finding your odd desire to get more of my line-mates to be very pointless. I am fine without the majority of them and we both know that Wily-dono will most likely require them in my world thus taking them away would be horrible for him.

... and going "But but new icons, must use theeeeeeeeem" is also not a good reason for you to pester me.

the_magikarp_link

Hey! Don't be sad that you finished the main story, okay? We'll meet again, I know that. Even if I'll probably have to rebuild my Links with Magikarp and Gyarados, it's not a problem, as long as they are by my side. As Father would say, "as long as my Pokémon choose me, I will continue to stand against the tide".

Speaking of Father and choosing, I am very much honored that you kept choosing me over him as your Water-type warrior as you played through the story. Though the thing is, I don't really understand why! He's so much stronger than me and Gyarados.

Ah, it doesn't matter! I really have to thank you for all these opportunities to experience what it's like to be a true warrior making history in Ransei. I found Magikarp and Gyarados, met so many interesting people and learned to work well with everyone. Even Yoshihiro-dono... even though, ah, I have never felt very comfortable around him... for some reason...

... Mm? Never mind! You just heard nothing. Again, thank you so much for choosing me as one of your favorite warriors, and don't be sad! You'll meet me again, I swear!

- Nobuchika

sunlitcrown

An impulsive reserve? How unlike you. You normally waffle on these things for weeks, changing your mind, going back and forth... I never expected you to actually do it!

And it only took you getting sick of Miakis to finally let me out, huh? Honestly, I'm surprised you lasted as long as you did - she must have been exhausting to keep up with. But you won't hear me complaining! You're finally going to play me in a game after all this time, aren't you ex...

[...]

Wait, what do you mean my brother won't be there with me??? No, I refuse! I am your Queen, and you can't make me go there if I don't want to!!

gothamscop

You could give any of the half-dozen...me's running around a commissioner. You could even offer them District Attorney Dent and instead you're sticking with me.

I wouldn't hold your breath about managing to accomplish anything...

[His writer knows just how to thrust an emotional sword Blake. Words are said. Words like "You're my favorite" and "Honestly you're not that bad no matter what my friends say" and "Police solidarity"]

I'm still mad about the stuff from my jacket getting out. Don't...don't try with that solidarity thing again either. That was private.

philalexandros

Giving gifts to him was as hard as you can imagine, if not much more. No matter how many times he said that he'd like anything that came from me, nothing ever felt adequate for such a king - and a friend.

a_gods_gift

I don't understand, Mundane. If you don't intend to send me somewhere, why go through the trouble of creating all of these icons? I realize I have been a soft voice for the past year, however it wasn't necessary to do all of this. There is plenty that I have left unfinished (and the thanks go entirely to him, of course). And I don't believe I would be a good fit in any of the other places your Voices reside in.

...Also I am not certain what you mean by "combo breaker".

sauvageon

I object to 'the boring one', especially if your criteria is 'hasn't stabbed anyone yet'.

lilarkangel

It's so nice to see you again, mun! I know you think you might fall out of interest all over again, but, at least while I'm here, we can still have a good time, right?

I'm not sure why you find my username so funny, though... Ah, if you say it's fine, then I won't worry about it!

Now, I know you haven't got much of an idea what to do with me now that I'm here, but if you'd like to set me in a game, then I'm sure you'll pick a good one that will work. Don't give up! Oh--and maybe Shadow will be there, too. That would be wonderful.

I think we have issues.
