Aug. 15th, 2012

My lady,

This is something new now isn't it? Such wonders to behold, so many people to meet, I am giddy with excitement at the very idea. Shall we get started right away?

Come on then, I have just the dress for the occasion!

notafruit

Dear Mundane-san,

Okay.... I realize that it was wrong to trespass, and at that time I was fully willing to accept the consequences of my actions. If you are going to do something, then it's important to know what you're getting yourself into. I completely understand that.

B-but I didn't think that it would equate to life in prison!

O-Oh my gosh! To think that I would have done something so horrible that it would be prison worthy! I really messed up this time. I thought I was making things better, but in the end I just can't believe this might really be the result.

Mom...I'm so sorry!

yohko

I'm so glad you're back, Mun! How was London? Did you have fun? Did you get to meet Uchimura-san?!

[ Priorities. Yohko has them. ]

. . . Is that a no?

quitefascinating

I do not see the logic of your position.

themissing

You're making me sound like a horny psychopath.

Quit it.

darksoulwithlight

Well well, it looks like you and I are in agreement.

He definitely looks like he needs an ascot and a smack upside the head. You know, under other circumstances I'd be pissed that I'm nowhere to be seen but in this case I'm gonna count my blessings and kick back to watch this train wreck with a bowl of popcorn.

sanskrit

Namaste, Mun.

Today is a day of celebration, fun, and an opportunity to further friendly diplomatic relations. On this day, I feel very proud of what my people have done to help me. Sixty five years goes by quickly, but I remember each year very well. We will work harder and become more fulfilled in the coming years.

There is a party of course, and there is always an invite just for you. I promise to have plenty of food and decorated elephants if you show up! No need to be shy, I'll make sure you have a nice sari to wear. The light show at the Parnasala tonight, so don't miss it!

ineuphony

...

Yeah, I guess you should get started on that if you want it to happen. But isn't two weeks a bit... long? I mean, I get you'll be busy in October and it'll make sense to have it happen then while you're away, but...I'm thinking about the people who will get affected by this. I don't want to be gone for too long, y'know? I wanna get back there as soon as possible.

( a pause. )

Fine, whatever. Just -- don't make it longer than two weeks, okay?

a_sharp_dresser

So, both Manns are dead, Saxton Hale is off fighting a yeti, we got fired and rehired in the same hour, and now we have to fight a robot army while paying money to the Bushman to upgrade our in order to save his own company.

[A sigh escapes from Spy's lips as he rubs his temples.]

No, mundane, I am not too enthused about this. Still, at least we will be working with the REDs, instead of fighting both zhem and zhose machines. I suppose it's the little things.

justthedoctor

Alright, alright, yes, I'll admit it. I am rather...amusing in my next life. Seem to have gotten over my rude and am more compassionate. Always a good thing. Too bad I'm still not ginger, but that's beside the point.

But do you really think it would he wise to make this account work for both of us??? No, no, I'm not saying to kick him out of headspace now that he's here, but...come on! you haven't even done anything with me yet! Can't I have some fun first, before you trade me up for the next model??? [D8<]

imaginaryfriend

You mean I can go to the real world?

Then do it! Send me to one of those "game" places. I'll bet a few of them could use a superhero.

Now that I think about it, who's going to help Sharkboy protect planet Drool if I'm gone?

..."Planet Drool." I just had to be a figment of a boy's imagination.

keyobsession

Mundane. It's 6am. Are you sure you're in your right mind to be thinking about this?

I mean, look at yourself. You're half asleep, watching videos on YouTube and all of that was for what? To find me again? I've been crammed in the back of your mind since the first time you laid your hand on that controller and found me, just casually hanging around with Paracelsus.

And. And! You're thinking about taking me to some game that hasn't even opened yet? Well, I guess that makes sense. Gives you some time to think things over.

You know what? Now that I'm thinking about it, it may not be so bad? I mean, it'll give me a chance to find Paracelsus a body. Maybe I can find that there?

I don't know. It's clear you have your mind set on the idea. I just hope you know what you're doing, for all our sake.

lareina

Yes, of course. You've been busy with your theatre shenanigans again. We get it.

... But maybe some attention, at least? You leave us hanging every time. Every time. I'm not being a spoiled brat, okay? I don't do spoiled. That's a little sister thing (no offense, Fia). I don't do tantrums either - no offense, Khrista.

I miss everyone.

Current Mood: lonely

coveralls

Oh man! I have always wanted to go on a cruise! [Ellis flashes a grin, clearly excited.] I ain't worried that it's not fancy or nothin'--who has the time to worry 'bout stuff like that durin' the apocalypse [aside from Nick], y'know? It'll be fun, like a vacation!

My vacation from them ugly ass sons-a-bitches [zombies, he means, not his traveling buddies.]. Shit, I'm all giddy now!

namigational

You've gotta be kidding me! There's a billion places out there and you choose one that doesn't even have a sky? Let alone an ocean. What happens to the Going Merry? He's got no one sailing him! I-- I didn't mean for him to get abandoned, okay--

--look, unless it's money I can take with me I'm not sure how that helps.

...well maybe it does a little.

burn_bright

What part of leave me alone doesn't register in your head, hmm? And...and now you're planning on sending me to that....castle. The one you've been messing around with for what...almost a year, isn't it?

What part of keep me away from people do you not understand? Sending me someplace like that's just asking for me to lose control, and we both know what happens when I lose control...

[He sighs, and pinches the bridge of his nose.]

I should've never left Nevada.

numberonemouseketeer

All right. You can stop that now, mun. [Oh, and making him hate Kairi? He's veeeery tempted to draw his keyblade on his mun for that, even though it is a parody]

[OOC: Explanation here: http://bakerstreet.dreamwidth.org/379457.html?thread=283725633#cmt283725633 Warning for horror of badfic horrors because we are terrible people. * sobs *]

Current Mood: pissed off

hangswithrobin

It's ok, I get it. You miss me. I miss me too, in that meta "future me was really going places" sense. I think you're doing the mature thing here, bringing me out to help you deal with...

What is this, anyway? Grief? Denial? A case of the Stephs? Flattered as I am, I'm not really into girls. And I'm sorta taken.

And whatever happened to all those waffles I was supposed to get, anyway?

kidwiththeleash

... No, I would not want them stuck here, even if they would be with me.

dammitgreenberg

You're damn right it's about damn time. All these unattended adolescents running around doing whatever the hell they want - texts from last night, morning after, I'm not even gonna name even half of the rest because it gets more disturbing than that time I went camping and had to run from a bear in the nude, and we all know how exposure makes things awkward.

The next thing you know Greenberg might actually be getting laid. HA. Yeah, about number one on the list of signs of the apocalypse. So good on you for doing the prolonging of mankind a favor in having me around to keep them in line.

compensate_much

[Oh... he is laughing....so very very hard]

Paisley.... trenchcoat.... It's... paisley.

Well. At least I know I won't be suffering alone.

featheredannoyance

[And there is a bit of evil cackling here.]

Oh, this will be fun.

twilit

... Eee hee.

Again, mun? Rushing around like this all the time when you don't even know what you want to do – you're worse than that wolf! And on top of that, you're certainly no hero.

Well, since it is pretty boring here, I wouldn't mind helping you "get my voice back" so I can go to one of those games. But hey, listen up! If you really want little Midna around... then you have to get serious! Don't mess around, okay? And, since you're the one who needs me so much, I'm sure you'd be distraught if I left... eee hee hee!

So? Did you get all that? [ ... ] Good!

Oh, and one more thing: if you let that diamond-covered rat in, then the deal's off! I don't care how "fabulous" you think he is, he just sounds irritating to me. Not to mention, he'll end up being a terrible influence on you, so don't even consider it if you want me to stay!

not_onyourside

Why am I zhe only one who zhinks we are all going to be crushed by zhe robots, and die horribly? On my list of ways to die before retirement, being ripped apart by robots was very, very far down zhe list.

You see Mundane, zhis ees how zhe battle will go:

Scout: Runs face first eento a robot and ees eaten.
Soldier: Rocket blasts his own feet off, bleeds to deazh.
Demo: Drunkenly tries to place a bomb, only to be stepped on.
Heavy: Charges eento zhe midst of zhem and dies wezzen seconds.
Medic: Was healing Heavy and ees now also dead.

And zhen eet ees me, Sniper and zhe laborer against a hundred robots.

We are going to die.

punchingshadows

What's the point of creating this journal and uploading appropriate icons if you're never gonna let me out? Not that I think Minato's having all the fun, Mun, but you might want to consider switching your reserve. [ It's not like he's particularly excited about being thrown to some random universe where his mun can torture him on a regular basis, but hey, it's better than being a sitting duck. ] Of course, school should remain your priority at all times. It's starting soon, don't forget that.

[ brb sounding like a certain other senior in SEES ]

I don't "sound like Mitsuru", I'm reminding you of what's important. And speaking about which, she's not "friendzoning" me. It's true that we're just friends.

...You're not listening to me, are you? [ Sigh. ]

lovedramamoron

Oi. I would just like to make a few points.

One, how long has it been since you paid any attention to this journal? I'm not someone you can just pick and forget as you please, you know.

Two. I refuse to be sent to any of these places unless they have someone interesting mysteries for me to solve. Or at the least a library well stocked with mystery novels.

Also, I fail to see the point in this journal name.

pullsheavendown

It's that time again, huh? I don't know if that's such a good thing. Yeah, there are people I'd like to see again—people I probably won't have the chance to know anywhere else. But I'd be just as happy to never see some people ever again.

Besides, things are going pretty good now. Sora and I have gotten a lot closer, and Axel and Joe aren't trying to kill each other. You never know what effect new arrivals will have, and I just—I want to keep things like this for a while, even if I know it's not going to last forever.

( And one DDD spoiler )

waitahotsecond

Oh my Rowling, I really wish you'd make up your mind whether you want me around here or not. I really don't mind staying in your head as long as I have my guitar with me. You know I've written a new song, do you want to hear it? It's...

[A pause]

Oh....fine be like that.

Look, I'm Harry Freakin' Potter not to mention I'm supermegafoxyawesomehot so do something totally awesome with me already!

lostinthelight

Well.

Shit.

And I thought my life sucked. But what're you so worked up for, it's only a crack thread, right? It's not changing anything for them for real.

...We should try that for me.

dragonhatched

You wish to not only send me further away from my people, but to a land of magical beasts called Pokémon? You must be insane!

Oh, there will be dragons there, you say. Is that supposed to make me feel better? While I admit at being intrigued by the idea of these Dragon types, I have much more important matters at hand. I have my own dragons to deal with. Drogon is plenty to handle for now.

I see you are still set on this silly idea. I urge you to consider it more carefully. You have a bad habit of jumping into things once you've thought them and I will not be caught up such a disaster.

notascienceproject

Yeah, no. No way, nada, nope.

Look, I'm glad you managed to see the whole movie this time. I appreciate that you stayed awake to go see it. But, do you want a medal or something?

And, as I said before, no. You've only seen the movie twice, and once fully. Isn't it too early to be considering one of these games? Come on, think it through.

Don't be an idiot.

huntseverything

Ya jest couldn' wait ter play me could ya, Miss Mun?

Well I can' say I blame ya. But I think we need ter get somefink clear. We don' want any trouble down the road now do we? No, I didn' think so. Yer a nice lookin' lady 'an I'd hate ter hafta change that.

Firs'- I don' care if yeh think it funny, Don't you dare compare me ter yer other pyro fella- I'm not a 'dirt poor Dai' an' I don' 'ppreciate bein called as such. I am completly brillian' and one of a kind. If anythin' that Dai feller's jus a cheap version o' me.

Second-If the good folks at yer board game can' 'andle me tha's their fault. Don't yeh worry yer pretty 'ead over it. 'n if yeh start think o' keepin me locked up in 'dis space I migh' have ter remove tha' pretty 'ead. Brilliance needs ter roam free luv.

Third- .....wha the 'ell possessed ya to make my brother fall in love wit 'is own lab equipment? I know lil Toby ain' that bright but I'd say thass goin a lil far don't you? Phazon? Yer talkin' sciency shit again, I get enouf er tha' from Adrik and Den.

I fink is righ stupid tha I 'ave ter wait till this 'plots' over ter show up, jus so yeh can make Toby loose 'is marbles. 'e's already enouf of a nutter as it is.

Wha? Tch no. Shut up, woman, I ain' jealous. Yeh know damn well 'o the best sibling is don'tcher?

Thass righ'-ME

calmbeforethe

Patience, Mundane. Two weeks is not so long. It will give you ample time to take care of your "five thousand and one things to do", as you so often refer to them, as well as give this decision more thought. I can't say I won't appreciate seeing familiar faces, but I hope you do not end up flustered between schoolwork and this game all over again.

In the meantime, do take better care of yourself. I can't do anything about the dreadful weather in your country, but if you would remember to bring an umbrella now and again, you wouldn't get caught in the rain as often as you do.

mothernature

[See icon.]

chasingchris

So you're really going through with this.

[She sighs and looks pretty miffed.]

Oh well. At least... everyone else will be there. [Everyone except Chris.]

bequiet_hescreamed

Don't you think you've put me in enough survival horror situations with virtually no magic? I already have a demonstrably poor track record for not getting eaten.

... Besides, there is something to be said for being able to explode things through sheer force of will. I don't think it makes life any less exciting.

smokinars

Man, mun. Sounds like you're rarin' to go. Sure you got enough juice for all this stuff you're plannin'?

[He lights up a cigarette and blows some smoke.]

So, what's the plan? Elena's not here so you're gonna have to take over. I'm not flyin' this one by myself, got it? I got the ARS, but I'm not one to just fly into something, alright?

[Insert a cheeky grin here.]

Need someone to hold my hand.

uponthehighwire

Oh, hi there mun. Hi. You're a femme right? So I can call you femme-mun?

Um, I guess you... [Here, High Wire slips into an incredible amount of Mini-Con bleeps and bloops, the translation which is "You're really excited about me, right?" Not that he can speak it in English because his English is very limited.] What is that word? The word for the happy feeling when you cannot wait? You have that, right?

'Cause I have that happy feeling. I think. It is like going on a journey, yes? But, um...

[High Wire slips into a few bleeps and bloops again, as though trying to search for words. He may know English, but he's not that good with it all the time. Poor little Mini-Con with his limited English.]

I mean, uh, that scared feeling. About that world you want to throw me in. I get that feeling. The scared feeling. The blue goo stuff is gonna be gone by the time you play me, right? I do not like the sound of the blue goo stuff from what the other friends in your, erm, headspace say.

And...um... [Here he gives a few soft little bleeps. The translation is along the lines of "You aren't going to make me sound like that thing Rad calls a 'butthead' are you?"]

[And then High Wire gives the cutest little look and his mun just melts from the adorable.] We will make a good team, yes, femme-mun? I do not have to be separated from my team, correct? I guess I am ready. I hope I do not let you down.

((And then his mun melts because she forgot just how adorable High Wire could really be and now she wants to hug him so damn much because he's just freaking adorable.))

blindjokes

Look, I know you're excited. It doesn't warrant you jumping around your room. There's nothing set in stone as of yet.

...stop trying to work me into the existing universe, okay? God knows you've already spent enough time on that.

bring_the_beatdown

MY WEAPONS ARE TOTALLY REAL.

[He's not happy with you, Solly.]

He can't say that can he? Nah I think that's uh.. libel. Yeah! Or slander! Or treason! Or something.

Why are you freakin' laughing mun?! This ain't funny! SHUT UP!

cardasseam

I'm quite flattered that you want to put me in one of Quark's little programs. Really, I am! But the quarters in your mind are a bit cramped; I really don't think you could squeeze me in.

Besides, what need does a sexual paradise have for a tailor? Lingerie is not one of my specialities.

elementofloyalty

Stop.

Shipping.

It.

You're not funny.

concubine_made_assassin

[Jun's voice is crisp but has a heavy accent.]

I do understand. You miss playing me, particularly there. And with Leonardo being weserved, you feel that bringing me back may be a wise course of action.

Although, I do not see the point in considering sending me back without my previous memories of being there. That would be too cruel to do to Ezio. Please consider this carefully before you submit the application. There is time yet before it would be reviewed. More than enough time.

And no, when I meet Leonardo, I am not asking him to make me a hidden blade like Ezio's. I am well armed as I am.

inextricable

Joining the masses? That's what they call it right?

But why me?

I can feel the skepticism several dimensions away. Look I know I need some work.

...

Fine. A lot of work.

Not saying I know what I'm doing on all five points.

But I'll figure it out.

I mean, I have to. Wasn't lying when I said I'd do anything. And maybe...maybe places like Gotham'll always need...

Well. What we all need.

Something to believe in.

[OOC: holy hotfoot batman -- and theeennnn it was late ;_; but seriously loving...all the everything here...I shall tag back again ASAP!!! thank you for threading in this rollercoaster voice-test! ~~I thought I mgiht be too late ldkjfdls~~ let's pretend RL isn't steam rolling me u_u /tags at a turtle's pace...]

*Gently pokes Mun...*

[Mun hisses. It's extra effective]

Um, you know- brooding ain't gonna help ya. It's just a friggin' movie, it's not cannon! You don't even have to watch it! So why are you ready to tear my insides, 'tebbayo?!

[Mun glares, then pays no more attention]

HEY! GET BACK HERE! I'M NOT DONE WITH YOU! DON'T LEAVE ME HANGIN'! YOU HAVE TAGS TO DO!

OI!!!

worldofhurt

Mun, are you really going to send it in this time? I mean, last time, you seriously flaked out and went on a full hiatus instead.

At least you've got the app done and we're doing that voice-testing thing again at the musebox. Now just go finish your replay of my game, since that's easier than starting a new one, right? It'd also really help you get a better grasp on things!

But w--... Would you stop just talking about some of those kinds of things?! All I'd do is hit him and be done with it! I don't care what he thinks!

[Yes you do, you're just pulling fourth wall and being upset that he won't ever tell you.]

I AM NOT! You're as bad as he is!

pillarofknighthood

Mundane, is it? I see. Thanks are in order. I am glad you remember me and still enjoy my company.

Though I question your intentions now. Do you wish to send me to some world away from my own? My sister still needs me. I don't wish to leave her alone. To do so will leave her vulnerable. I suppose I have no choice, however. Perhaps other worlds need someone to help them. Injustices should never be tolerated, no matter the world they inhabit. No one should suffer for the benefit of others and should you send me to a world where this is be occurring; I will do all in my power to stop it.

I suppose that is all I have to speak with you on. Until you decide on a destination for me, I will wait patiently.

Sincerely,

Ramza Lugria

f_steak

You just got back from a week-long vacation five days ago. Why do you already look like you've been run over by a truck? Maybe you should try doing something fun that isn't on a to-do list for a change. There's more to life than cleaning and working and school and e-mail!

Wanna try cooking again? I mean, you've got air conditioning, so it can't hurt! And hey, maybe I'll improve a little too, heh!

--Don't you dare use dice to pick a recipe at random, the point is to do something you actually want to do, not that you have to do!

seethelanterns

You're considering taking me to a second 'game', one you're already in? Isn't the Garden enough? I mean, I know you miss Splendor sometimes, but you know we can't go back there. I guess just....wait and see, think about it for now? Maybe we can try a different point to take me from this time. I guess I wouldn't mind going somewhere new (for me) but, it's up to you. It'd be nice to see some company from home though, especially if I can bring Pascal.

solar_surfer

You know what? Let me count all of the ways that this is a really bad idea. It's going to end badly, and when it does, I'll be the first to tell you 'I told you so'. Funny type of game you like to play.

's nice to be out though. Gettin' pretty stuffy in that head of yours if you ask me. I know that variety is the spice of life and all that, but I think you're meant to actually do stuff rather than just hoard. It's been what, six years? Maybe more? You could have picked me up when you were actually my age rather than, y'know. Ancient.

Now, has anyone seen Morph?

nerd_bot

I do not wish to be 'placed' anywhere, mun. It would be a direct violation of my mission if I were sent somewhere without Lance and Ilana. Of course, if they were there I would not mind going somewhere. It would be nice if Kimmy were there too, of course.

Also, there's something I would like to discuss, mun. This near obsession you have with the final episode is bordering on unhealthy. It's safe to say that there won't be another season. I suppose it would make sense if it were Lance's father that repaired me. He would have intimate knowledge of Galalunian technology, and if he vanished while testing a prototype Rift Gate, it would make sense that he would be on Earth as well, and it would explain Solomon's familiarity with Galalunian Military Hand-to-Hand combat style.

I am curious as to how he was injured to the point of needing such cybernetic implants though, but the point remains. You need to let that go. Our story may not have finished, but yours is still going, as it were.

ratherbeblind

But you tired of me so quickly the first time, my dear. What makes you think this time will be any different?

I would only want you to be sure before you put in all that work only for it to be a waste again.

unlmtdpotential

[X is just staring blankly, blinking every so often, with a rather unamused face. :|]

[Facepalm.]

Father, Dr. Cossack, what were you thinking? The new addition is being ridiculed left and right already.

[More like, what was Capcom thinking?]

Really. I wouldn't put it past Dr. Wily to try something like this, but for even the other villains to go for it...

[sigh]

magnificus

We're back again so soon, mun?

[There's a laugh.]

I think I'd quite like to join Ed and his charming girlfriend on their spaceship, but you appear to have some reservations about it? Like your upcoming schedule, come September?

It is understandable, I'll admit, but your 'burning need to thread all the things' and not actually doing anything about it isn't helpful to either of us.

I suppose we could use some practical advice. ~~Or Aslan.~~

Where's Susan when you need her?

didhishomework

Has it ever occurred to you, just once, that maybe I like my life to be as simple and have as little variables as it possibly can? Yes, I know that I admitted once that the concept of living with aliens, time travelers, and espers is fun. I'm aware of that. But here's the thing, that doesn't mean that if I'm getting well adjusted to a subnormal setting, you should do your best to put me in a different one to see how I stick.

Seriously, you've tried this how many times now? Surprisingly, it hasn't worked once.

That's what I figured. Can I just stay around here and keep things as normal as it can be, without the Infinite Improbability Drive acting up? [A pause.]

[Sigh.] Of course not. I didn't think so.

aimless_arrow

Good old Munnie of mine,

You are a wonder. I mean, you deserve the title magnificent after all this. Thanks to you, I'll get all my friends at the Visitor's Event at the game. And with all the other people coming, almost no one will be lonely. You are one gifted guy.

And give my thanks to your roommate for both the list and Ulrich coming. Now we just need to find William...and maybe Sissy too yeah, and we're all golden! I am thinking this is going to be one heck of an event. You know what we need now?

DANCE MUSIC!

( music video under the cut )

fuckingvisions

Good job Lass, scare yourself. That's how ya be getting things done these days I see. DOn't be taking this the wrong way. I'm excited as you are about seeing Angel again and I think you're doing a good job. You'd know if I didn't, hell reading Angela's Ashes just because I like it. Not a lot of people would do that.

Though scaring yourself over an application is no good, didn't you say 'The Application shows what you can do'? Right? Well If your freaking out over every details and how everything must be perfect and stress yourself how are we going to have fun?

I'm not a stress kind of guy, and you know that.

If I thought you couldn't do it lass, I'd let you know, now calm down and sit back crack open Angela's Ashes and get back to reading. You got a few days until you know if you made it or not so don't fret and don't you dare edit that app again. Stop it.

Go tag a meme or pester Angel's Mun.

-Doyle.

PS. I hate you for the It's A Wonderful Life plot on CWC. Just know this.

Current Mood: bored

glitterjesus

Look, I'm not one for bursting that fourth-wall bubble too often: I like it where I am, and I'm sure you do too, we're copacetic, I can deal. More than deal, usually.

But there's a point when your indecisiveness...well. Don't you have things you should be doing? Let's not get confused: I'm invested in the outcome as much as you are, even if "work" isn't exactly my forte. But when I'm telling you you're slacking off?

Any time you want to get to that so I can stop sounding like the overbearing adult here would be fantastic. Honestly, I'll have nightmares for weeks, it'll drive me to drink.

...More. It'll drive me to drink more.

I think we have issues.
