So you wanna send me out to play, huh? Just make sure you don't pick somewhere too boring. I don't like being bored, and I bet you won't like dealing with me when I'm bored.

Hey, don't be nervous! I'm sure you'll do great for your first time! Besides, there's no point getting worked up when you haven't even picked a game yet, right?

deskman

Oh. This again.

[SIGH.]

If you "miss" me so much, then it might be beneficial for you to, ah... I don't know... actually write me? This doesn't count. This much doesn't take nearly as much effort as sitting down and plotting an actual story.

...writer's block? Don't bullshit a bullshitter, kid. You're just too lazy to get off your butt and start everything up again. Sorry--this one's all on you.

notthatfenrir

You're finally making an effort to put your notes for me in one folder instead of leaving them scattered over different notebooks! That's good, it's a step...Kinda a small one, but whatever. At least you're doing it. You really should be working on the history, though. And I know writing out my personality's driving you crackers, but hey, keep playing me off of people and it'll come easier!

Thanks for the new icons by the way. Still no to any wolf ones...for now, anyway. Maybe if you find one wicked enough...

garantundkraft

Oh, what's this, Herr Mundane? You've got plans for me?

Sure you do. I'll believe it when I see you actually finish that app. No offe- Actually, no, I take that back, kid. I don't give a shit if it offends you, but you've been pretty damn inconsistent and unreliable lately. Not exactly making me feel confident you'll get all this damn dust off of me and play me somewhere in any incarnation.

Least of all this one, 'cause God knows you can be a coward about the stupidest shit. Picking a remotely 'controversial' -and yeah, I definitely just used fingerquotes there, so don't give me that look- time period to play me from? I'll almost be impressed if you respond to anyone here.

Key word there is almost. It'll take following through on those plans to really impress me.

...

And do I wanna know why you and that other mundane are squealing like stuck pigs in your little communication box thing? Or is this one of those things I'm not gonna like and should just ignore while I still can?

showmeyourwreath

So, it seems like the jig is up and we're back here, once again. I can't say that I'm entirely pleased with the circumstances, but I suppose I'll just have to make do, won't I? There's still a lot of work to be done, but you've still taken quite the large step! You worked very, very hard on your application, and it's really amazing how you managed to be so tight-lipped about it, even to your closest friends. I know that they'll be happy....

But, um, you're still sending me to a mental hospital, and a very dangerous one, too! Couldn't I have gone some place nicer?

did

I'm thrilled.

[ Gordon's tone of voice, however, suggests the exact opposite. ]

ooc: warnings for spoilers in threads should castmates tag in!

kapitan

Really, little girl?

This is hardly the time to be fooling around. You don't expect me to make nice with people, do you?
No, I think you know better than that. Or is that your idea of fun?

Just do us both a favour and don't get in over your head.

whatseparates

...Well.

It's got to be better than Rapture, right? Anything would be better than this. And I don't think I'm likely to see Atlas or...or Ryan there. It'll be fine.

Right?

_...Right?

erfingi

Well, I am so glad you have finally decided which one of us to play at that wretched place, I am only disappointed that despite all these "feels" you have for me, you choose to spend more time with Stark.

Then again, I do not fancy the idea of turning into something or someone I am not. However, I demand that you find some place other than your exceptionally cluttered and unclean head to put me. I wish to engage in conversation less mundane than suggesting you paint your nails.

Decide well, mortal, I will be watching.

notghostgirl

Please please please tell me there's still time to revoke that reservation! You can't tell me there isn't a better place out there for a girl like me...

Don't ignore me! You know I'm against any sort of violence! How could you decide to send me to a city where you have to hurt other people to get points? This is totally going against everything I believe in!

You ma'am, are not human.

whatisreality

( SPOILERS )

aproperdoctor

Would you stop being so insecure about things? Seriously, I'm not asking you to have some sort of Jack-like ego, but worrying about other people playing me better is ridiculous. You know your way around - and other people have just as much a right to this sort of thing as you do. Your jealousy is a bit silly and childish. If you want childish, there are better characters than me in your head to handle that, and the same thing goes with insecure.

Also, everybody would like you to stop pining over 'ships' and 'being forever alone'. Yeah, nobody plays their love interests, and I don't even have one. Get over it.

For the record, it would probably help matters - all of them, including the lack of canonmates - if you played the proper version of me, and not the one you seem to enjoy making miserable. Though, judging by your track record, you do that with everyone.

Now go write that fanfiction. Well, actually, go to bed first, then write the story. And don't make another journal for me because of it, this is just getting ridiculous.

...you're making me sound like my mum.

pinkcrayonwarrior

Oh you must be joking.

No Tin Pin Slammer tournmanets? No Pinhead Weekly? Running water's a luxury?

I mean, I know I was living in a glorified sewer beforehand, but at least the Shibuya River had proper plumbing and a minibar.

Well, so long as I can keep my pins, and my Rainbow Kaiser, it's not a total wasteland. At least my other self will be around to keep things interesting.

Oh, and his Neku~

alchimia

'Sabout damn time, 'sall I'm saying.

...What do you mean it's only temporary? What?! Goddammit, lady, now you're just doing this crap to mess with me!

Winry's gonna kill us when she finds out those adjustments won't be any good...

apocalypsing

Truly.

After almost a year of silence, of letting me rest and truly sleep without agony, you've gone and chosen to wake me up once more?

[Look 1000 Words came on my iPod and... yeah.]

Your lack of restraint is something you've never gotten over, have you. I shouldn't be surprised. If you want cooperation, then find her. Find Lenne. Then, perhaps, I'll consider it.

moonybunnyboy

Oi~ Mun-chan!

I know I'm like...the last guy who should say this, but don't you think you ought to think on this more?

It's been forever!

[But that what a voice test is for, Usa-kun!]

Sh-shut up! Only Mamo-chan can call me that, yanno!

Anyway! I hope we can see all the guys someday, till then, let's have fun and stuff!

When's dinner, by the way?

brewseasily

Mun-

I'm as excited about the second season as you. But could you stop looking at Kei like that when you watch it? It's creeping me out.

ohhdeer

Well, I.. I suppose if you really.. miss playing me, you should, um. Pick me up again? Somewhere else? There were such nice people there, and Mister Tillman was very kind, yes.

Perhaps a.. meme? And stop.. saying things like that. Just because I have antlers doesn't mean I'm actually a deer. I won't 'spook'.

fidgets

Can we maybe not do the whole "see if anyone wants him" thing? I'm kinda needed back in Beacon Hills, you know, and I don't really think anyone would appreciate you kidnapping me and sending me someplace. Besides, you've got, like... what? Four other people from home in that cramped head of yours? Why don't you try sending them to some hellhole instead of me?

...I'd suggest not sending Allison anywhere, though, unless Scott's there. They'd both be pretty miserable without the other, I bet.

fotlenke

No.

No.

Noooooo.

By Vanaheim, nooooo.

I will kick you if I must. Kick you, Loki, Tony Stark, and all those who encourage this very disturbing thought.

oskmey

Have you forgotten? I am not simply another Valkyrie, not one of Odin AllFather's girls. I am a Norn, and youngest though I may be, still you'd do well to mind yourself.

Even so.. you do make an excellent point. There are those present here that I would be only too pleased to be patron of, and to claim when their lives are at an end.

handsy

Looking for a new game for me? And exactly how many times are you planning to put me through this?

Not that I enjoy lounging around that headspace of yours, but you really need to think things through instead of rushing in guns blazing.

[She sighs, pinching the bridge of her nose.]

I'll be waiting.

ships_ot3

It was ever so much fun to plant these thoughts in your mind while you slept, Munsie.

You dreamed so peacefully, thinking of such lovely things and I was working my way into your thoughts all the while. A few times, you nearly woke up! It was like a game.

But now, it has worked and here I am, alive again and ready to find Damon and Stefan. They must be terribly lonely without me. Can you imagine how surprised they'll be?

kissedgoldfrog

You know mun, maybe you should either keep me active in the bubble or drop me. Because we both know that you haven't been feeling that game lately and it's not helping anyone.

And I see that application for that other place: delete it. I don't care if there's people from the last place I was in but they won't remember me and I don't do well in those types of games!

hoodbin

I do not believe you need to create that many pixelated boxes for me. Your urge to play me comes and goes. It is rather boring.

Just leave me alone. I have other things I must do. Redhood will not wait forever and neither will justice.

...What?....Why are you snickering? It's creepy coming from you......What?! Stop starring at me!.....Stop it!! This idiot!

watchtheworldburn

Ever the impatient one, aren’t you? How I came to have such a troublesome youth for a mun I will never understand. Nor do I see any reason for us to be having this discussion. I have no intention of being sent to any of these ‘games’ that you are so inclined to send me to.

Now run along. I have other matters to attend to that don’t involve catering to your limited attention span.

imperfectsymmetry

Hey, mundane.

Look, I'm glad you're thinking about picking up the two of us, but--

Ooh! Ooh! Let me say it, Sis! Please?! Can I can I can I?!

...Go for it, Patty.

Yay! [The shorter of the pair clears her throat.] YOU BETTER NOT SCREW THIS UP DAMMIT!

What?! Patty! That wasn't it!

[Patty just hysterically laughs as Liz puts a hand to her face in embarrassment.]

prettyfool

[Jazzy's blubbering and whimpering, looking pretty distraught, shaking her little fists at her mundane.]

Buh-buh-but!! It's just not fair! Y-y-you listen here, missy!

Mister Ryan's already done so much for me and if he wants me to go down to that Rapture place and be with him and--and be a star! Then...well, I'm gonna go!

[Yeaaaaaa, not happening, sweetie.]

Oh!! You are so cruel!

[Sweetie, trust me. What's awaiting you in that cesspool ain't stardom.]

crossyourpath

Can't say I'm disappointed about missing a chance to see Venom.

[Mun is, though.]

Can't say I'm happy to be going there, either.

myownclone

Oh, but whatever do you mean by that? I've never done anything out of malicious intent before - everything I am, everything I've done, all of it has been in the name of uninhibited scientific research. It is not that I am evil, as you believe, but simply that your moral fiber is an inherent weakness that so many find themselves crippled with.

But! You must not be as kind as you would assume yourself to be, am I correct? For you set me free, when you could just as easily have kept me tucked away, unable to "harm" anyone. Or perhaps you couldn't? Perhaps your will is truly that weak after all?

Fascinating. I'll have to perform some tests on you later. But for now, I must find new subjects, new experiments, new hosts! There is so much I have yet to discover, to create, to destroy if need be - ah, which leads me to addressing all of the rest of you who are watching. I've a simple question, no strings attached. I won't inject you with anything, even!

Is there such a place in this "dreamwidth" where one may have the resources to experiment without hindrance? I care not if the residents themselves may object, only that the materials are available.

greybox

Good to finally meet you, miss Mundane. I was wondering when you'd make a journal for me.

[A smile graces her lips as she puts a hand to her chin.]

What's the password?

[You couldn't resist, could you.]

frozenmemories

Alright alright. I'm not as upset at you anymore..but Why do you want to put this out there?

It's kinda interestin' to see everyone there but..Why are you hoping to see more of me show up? That's kinda dumb.

widows

Charming.

"Because you feel like it" isn't a valid reason to go toying with someone's sexual orientation -- or any orientation. But I'm aware nothing I'm going to say will have any affect on what you decide to do, so I'll just insist you try to minimize the damage. Not your area of expertise, I know.

No more of these excessively emotional tags when feelings rarely figure into this kind of thing. Make use of my namesake. At this point I'd prefer it.

palletless

[Other hobbies? What other hobbies? He's the Pokemon Champion, he doesn't have time for that!]

[Okay, fine. Maybe there is one thing...]

...Pokemon dolls. Also, chess.

[There, is THAT better? ...more?!]

...slot machines...?

hippyspeech

Perhaps you should re-watch the series in it's entirety before attempting to play me, mundane.

amadmansshadow

Hn.

At least this means you will cease bothering me and I can return to my duty to Wily-dono.

theboywonder

Hey, I get it. You're busy, I'm busy, I don't mind taking a back seat to older me most of the time. And we both know he's been having a really crazy couple months, so it's not like you need to be thinking about sticking me somewhere more permanent.

Besides, I can think of worse things to get dragged into than going to what's basically American Hogwarts. If it was a zombie apocalypse thing, maybe I'd be singing a different tune.

Well, if you're not going to say it I certainly will. Someone's got to celebrate a well-tooled backup plan coming to fruition.

'Vive le Roi' never felt quite so appropriate.

basketballjunkie

Hey woman.

If you think you can drag me away from playing basketball to toss me into one of these damn games, then you better watch your back.

I don't care if I'm in your head space, I'm not gonna go.

Tch.

kenshirowned

Are you sure this is wise? You have tried before, but never followed through, but...

[Stoic as ever, this one.]

Very well. Finish watching events with Raoh unfold first, if you're so determined.

thislifeofmine

[This social link doesn't look amused at all.]

So, let me try to get this straight. You made your Dragon Quest character look like me...? [She sighs.] And you've concocted this story about me getting stuck in a game, just so you don't get bored while playing?

...

How much more cliche can you get? The idea lacks imagination, for one. Second, that's still really creepy. Don't you have anything better to do with your time? Idiot...

dissimulation

deadbirdarising

What happened, chick? No, seriously. I want an answer here. I think I deserve an answer.

What happened to 'I'm not giving DC any more of my money since the reboot'? What happened to 'I'm probably not going to go see the new movie cause I know it's not going to follow canon'? What. The. Fuck happened to 'I'll stick to my old Bat-verse and call it a day'.

I am not sharing a headspace with any of those weak assed down graded pansy thinking watered down mockeries. And so help me, you try and I'll put a bullet through those pretty brown eyes of his faster then you can say 'But it's an AU!'.

You've got me and Dickie-bird. What, we aren't good enough for you anymore?! Aren't new enough? Hell, at least I have a journal. Big-bird is lucky to get an hour of fucking text time with the only person you play him against. Now, don't get me wrong, I like watching the idiot suffer in the dark recesses of your head, but I'm not so thrilled about the fact that you don't even play me anymore!

Granted...I know why. And I support that, because I can't stand idiots. But come on! The one person you played both of us against anywhere resembling a public setting doesn't want us anymore! That's bad enough, and now you want us to share with him?!?!

Fuck you, lady.

second_primespark

While I'm impressed by your... initiative, and always willing to listen, my schedule is full. I really don't have the time to spare to converse with you and others in this metaphysical in-between.

If certain individuals get the idea I might not be vigliant... or can be traced by my presence here to my actual location, things would end badly.

[like they've done before, even if it's usually ended well.]

[truth to be told, though, he's just annoyed he got woke---]

Quiet, you. That being true or not, I'm not in the mood. I was preparing a whole new reality, and it has now been unaccountably delayed.

[he's just cranky this early in the morning, pay him no heed. he's a gentle sort, really!]

4th_survived

Miss Mundane,

I know you are upset, but really, there is no need to be frustrated.

Yes, I know you worked hard on my application, and that you did have it 'beta-ed'. Yet you yourself later admitted that it could have been better, does that not already show means to improve.

So you need to wait another month, You've been so busy, do you not think it is better this way. You know now what you need to work on, and you have time-one should not rush such things. Also, I believe some new icons would not go unappreciative, especially now that you know how to make them.

Though, I do not suppose it would be too much trouble to ask to wait until November before you turn in this application again? When this 'fear plot' is over with?

I thought not.

I suppose I should be grateful that I will not be fully included in such a thing, but then I believe I already faced my fear during my marriage to his majesty.

chasingchris

And here I thought you'd forgotten about me.

[She shakes her head.]

Maybe I was hoping you'd forgotten about me. I don't want to go to that place. I don't care if the people there are good for Survival Horror. It's survival horror. If I can help it? I don't want to be a part of it.

[She glares up at the mundane.]

And those "Claire x Wesker" Icons were not funny.

anytime

this is fucked up thats what it is. youd doom an entire timeline to rp me and thats grade a bullshit man no way in hell am i down with it

hahaha right like you could even try to stay canon compliant in a fucking reverse jamjar. we are drifting further and further down a doomed riverway and you are the little tugboat with a boatload of dead daves. hold up theres a body in the water oh its just another dave nbd

im chill with the username. the double entendre could be better but ill take what i can get at this point. the journey reference is pretty ironic

just. fuck if you gotta doom me make it something in my history. taking a wrong turn at some bullshit magic window is a pretty lame reason to kill everyone. just saying

and quit worrying about my typing quirk of all fucking things. seriously theres semi canon precedence for this shit so who cares if it isnt the accepted standard. we got the rationale sealed airtight. we could send it into space if we wanted and if people dont like it they can serve themselves a healthy dose of shut the fuck up

ok now youre worried about being rude i think you shouldve thought this over before sharing headspace. i know i know its hard when youre tempted by a strider but sometimes you gotta pony up and take one for the team

teenagebadboy

We have been through this before and nothing happened. What makes you think it'll turn out better this time? Just calm your horses and drop that silly idea of yours, you'll just get hurt... again. Leave me alone.

It's still astonishing to me that you think this will end well. He is obviously making his way well enough on his own, and I'm very sure you know it.

[ The most severe look. ]

Not that you're actually doing this for him. One of the benefits of being in your head is that you can't lie to me.

As a side note, I'm not sure what you think I'll do on an island full of angels, gods, and children, but it won't be as rosy as you seem to expect. If I find myself planning parties I promise you it won't go well.

worldshrinking

Ahh, it's a lovely evening to be out and about, isn't it? The stars, the breeze, the balmy air, why… it's perfect for a drive, don't you think, Miss Mun? You might even say it's the perfect evening for a test drive.

[He flips up his shades and sighs.]

Oh, I know, I know, you have work. They say beautiful work is the soul of culture and I'm inclined to agree, so try not to be so down-hearted about it. You need work to put food on the table and you need food to live and living is all we can ask for in a world like this, wouldn't you agree? Ah, but then again, all work and no play makes you dull because if you're always working, you hardly have the time to enjoy living, do you? It's quite the conundrum. Business before pleasure then, I suppose, but always make time for pleasure. Sometimes it's the simple pleasures that are best in life – a good book, a nice dessert, a quiet, relaxing night to yourself, there are so many ways you can spend those moments. It's important that you spend them well.

And don't go forgetting about me, now. [The shades come back down and he flicks his forelock loose.] I'm ready for that test drive whenever you are, Miss Mun.

snaking

It's cute, really -- when you humans try to pretend you don't have a thirst for the twisted. It's encoded into your DNA, dear. Luckily for you, there are people like me to help you with that.

It'll be just like the good old days.

weallfalldown

Hey!

So I know you said two boys in one game was enough for you. But, if you have two boys in one game and then a SOLDIER in another, that's totally different, right? Come on, you know you want to. And I've just been dying to stretch my legs a little, get out there and maybe talk to some ladies. [Even if, you know, there is still that girl of his waiting at home. Its harmless flirting, sweet heart, he promises. He's coming to see you soon, so don't you worry your pretty little head.]

Anyways, it doesn't hurt you to look around a little. Expand the playing field and see if someone is just dying to have a me around. It shouldn't be too hard. Though you might want to pick up that little device of yours and play through one more time, just to get all your facts straight.

Think of Angeal and what he might say! [And he'll cough and attempt to mimic his voice.] Remember, Zack, you need to focus and know your strengths.

...Well, he never said that, but, better you doing all the paper work than me, right?

girlfriend_beyond

There's no rush, really. It's going to be hectic the next few days. I know you want to play me again, but maybe it's best to wait a day, at least. Why don't you write that college app fic? I bet some of the Terry-muns you've met would like to see it~

You gotta be joking.

I mean, you can't be serious with this. It's been, what, six years and now you think it'll be a good idea to pick me up? What makes you think I even want to be picked up, anyway? Just leave me alone, you dweeb!

engages_nightfuries

I don't think I like your idea of fun. I mean, for me, fun is spending time with my friends on Berk. It's flying with Toothless and inventing something for my village, improving on things.

Fun isn't getting sent to a...what did you call it? A 'pocket dimension'?

I don't even know what that means. And considering my 'canon', as you call it, don't you think I've gone through enough on Berk without having to throw curses my way, too?

I...fine. Fine. Do whatever you want. Just...can you at least try to make sure Toothless is there? If he isn't, I'll trade for him. I want at least one familiar face there. Just one but if the others show up, that's great, too.

amdrag_jake

I thought you were super excited to start playing me! Then you ditch me for some chick with less than an episode of screentime?!

That is so low, man.

Girl, whatever. And what's up with the icons! Get me some good ones - can't show this beautiful face in only one position for the rest of the game!

dork_of_keys

What's so funny, Mun? This idea can work. Yeah, it's a little awkward. And Riku might be annoyed with me about it later on. But have you got a better idea to get that gaggle of fangirls off of us? That's totally your fault, by the way, you and your co-mod. You two control the NPCs and just having the fangirls in the first place was the brain child of one of you, never mind having them latch onto me and Riku because we're the newest visitors from another world.

Anyway, I can take if it's going to earn me a punch in the head, but I think running with those rumors will help. Just... Stop. Laughing. Seriously, Mun. What could go wrong?

...

Roxas thinks it's funny too. Does he know something I don't?

captastrofan

Look, I know you want to pull me out, dust me off, and toss me into one of those weird cities where all kinds of people are magically brought in so someone can torture them for vague, nefarious purposes, but I'm not sure you really know what you're doing with that. I...kinda suck without my friends. I'm not saying that to be modest or whatever. I really am.

So maybe you should just leave me be, okay? I'll be fine right where I am.

wefightfor

[Tron isn't so sure he likes this plan you've got here, Mun...

Rinzler knows he's not.]

Do you think this is the wisest decision for the poor Beta? Our situation is...difficult at best. I don't want another Program to get hurt because I can't control him...

I'll Kill him.

Please don't...

I think we have issues.
