Mun, dude. I know you want me in that place with the Tranformers but slow down! Take it a little easier and relax, dude. You'll nail the application, and hopefully I can get my Tsunami Cycle to come in with me. And people say I'm impatient... And if we don't make it in, there's always another game. Oh! About that other me in that Unova place, shouldn't you figure out what Pokemon you want me to catch before the swarm event is done?

Later days, mun dude!

You send me in here with no direction and very little in the way of answers. And thanks for nearly scaring me to death.

So here's what I have so far:

Uncle Kevin built a computer system to beat all computer systems, but somewhere isolated. What he was doing may not have been ethical or even sane. Something, somewhere goes horribly wrong and the Programs felt they had no other choice but to turn against him. ~~Begging the question all over again - why didn't he trust the people who loved him to help?!~~ And the worst part is that he died there, alone, while the rest of us don't get any answers. Pop's search was all for nothing.

Uncle Kevin also wasn't kidding when he said I have a virtual "brother" and "sister." Yeah, they're a little creepy in how much they look like Mom and Pop ~~and are even worse in the "can't keep their hands off each other" department~~. Not sure I'll ever quite get over the resemblance. Unfortunately, I've seen things here that indicate something horrible must have happened to Tron. If I can, I have to try and set it right. I may not be my father, and I know Programs don't have the same concept of family as humans do, but...

And thanks for posting Chapter Ten. The systems I traveled on were entirely different from this "Grid," but I'm still picking up more than I ever wanted to know from all the emails. It's going way, way off the rails from the original game, but I'm not objecting to more screen time with Mercury.

So, Mun. I have two goals. The first is to find out the truth; no matter how painful. The second? If I can't get out of being a User, then I need to learn how to be a good one - the kind Programs deserve to have. So, it's on you to help me get there.

Do not think me as blind, mundane... not when I am perfectly aware of what you're doing. Not just with me, but with others who play as me.

I believe it is time for me to shove you down where you belong again, you pitiful human. Your "shipping habits" will never be appreciated or welcomed. Even in the case of ones who are not my enemies and not completely human themselves, so long as they defend humans blindly they are just as guilty. Do you earnestly believe I wouldn't be sickened by the thoughts of all these ships? I don't need any of them, inferior being, so cease your entertainment of such pathetic thoughts.

[...]

No, I have no desire for Joshua to kiss me. Were you not listening, mundane? [He looks slightly flustered, though.]

waywardflight

Hi there Miss Mun,

Thanks for making me a journal. I really like the username. [Yawn] It's nice to be awake too and have my heart back. Being inside Sora for so long was interesting but I'm glad to be back now too.

I'm worried about Roxas though, what is going to do without my heart? And where are Aqua dn terra after all this time?

fivepointsirish

Miss,

I see that you have not been swayed from you initial impulse to 'pick me up'. As to tonight's episode - you know I'm not gonna leave this case alone. This is only the beginning. I'll find out the truth. I can promise you that. So don't get any fancy ideas about putting me in a game. I've got work to do where I am. An innocent man's life depends on it.

( Also, why do you keep saying that this should be my theme song )

ex_old_man857

So you're having fun, are you?

I'm not sure that warrants sending me to another game. Although, considering the one you do have me in, I can't believe you'd send me to another that has the same premise, even if from the sounds of it none are quite the same. Still... Married to some stranger with grown kids, or on a different spaceship? You know I wasn't that good of a parent, as mother or father- and space? Really? Well, I guess I would still be boldly going, but not quite where no one has gone before...

And someone should really tell this Atia about Risa.

asgardfltcmd

Mun? Where is this castle you want me to go to?
What do you hope to achieve by making me go there?

sahl

You're quite out of practice, aren't you? It might be best to pick the books back up out of the dusty corner you've thrown them.

wantedtogowithher

Don't you dare even think it, you wicked thing! I will not be made sport of! Just because you found those old conversations and have these 'feels' - which is not proper grammar at all I should note! - does not mean I will have my feelings put on display like that! I refuse, I absolutely positively refuse to cooperate!

... Especially if I can't see Elphaba again.

Not that I've forgiven her, because I haven't!

In any regard, I would much prefer to be left alone to my studies, if you would be so kind. I have no desire to suffer that heartbreak once more.

rebornxflame

Hello, there mun...? I hope that wasn't rude of me to say, aha. Seems like you really do want to bring me somewhere, mhm?

I hope it can be somewhere with my friends at least!

prince_of_thorns

How dare you make me wait! Me, Prince Phobos! If you knew me as well as you claim to, you would know that I have no patience for incompetence.

noticed

Commoner. You think you can control me, the one who is God?

[Clearly, he does not think very highly of his mun.]

I guess I can give you a shot at this. If you screw up, I will make it so you believe you are more lowly than toilet paper!

schattenmagier

Yes, I do say so myself. A canon review might do you some good and right now would be a good time. Since you aren't reading any books.

bishiyodadesu

A gag account you give me? Hmph!

"Too few icons!" "Not appable!" Complaints of an artist these are not.

talentsgirl

All right, mun-lady, I get it. You weren't sure if you were gonna "keep me" so you did some canon review and got me some new pictures (which you still need to edit - at least add the tats!) and now you've got a serious jones for a specific character to show up in Luceti. But let me tell you - he'd hate it here, except for the free vodka... and now you're snickering again. It's nice to see you take this seriously.

And by the way? For the record, preplanning my "CR opportunities" with vampire is a bad, bad idea. Do you really want Harry to throw that kind of fit? And while we're on the subject of Harry, do you really think I can avoid talking to him forever? He's going to figure something out. Wouldn't it be better to tell him what's going on now instead of having him figure something about what happened then?

...no, okay. You're right. Avoidance it is.

boywho

You've spent a lot of time doing other things, so what do you need me for? It's nice that you're dedicated or whatever this is, but we were done. There's nothing left for you to do with me - and if there is, I don't want to know about it. Something else or someone ~~if they're mental~~ will come along and everything will be great. So let's go our separate ways again, okay?

deutscherorden

Yo! I don't know what you're planning, but it'd better be good! I was totally about to kick that loser Hungary's ass!

Whatever! I claim this place for my own, kesesese~ All of you here, bow down and worship the Mighty Teutonic Knights!! I don't know what all this stuff about 'using this to get back into character' is, but it doesn't matter, because I'll be the best at whatever challenge you throw before me!

Yeah, you too, Mun-Person-Thing. You'd better grovel at my feet before I decide I don't need you after all~

no_exit

I would like to tell you a few things:

Roberto Cavalli (yes), Thom Browne (no), Jean Paul Gaultier (possibly), Armani (done that), Dries Van Noten (that's problematic).

I have no outward desire to explain to you the ingeneousness of the Flo Rida song, Whistle. To the untrained ear it is a base song, however, this makes it especially good because it is a song about whistling. With the inclusion of actual whisling. It's that obvious.

You don't have the energy to maintain my force of personality in a modern world, despite what you think.

prophetic_name

Are you entirely sure we're ready for a game?

From what I understand, they're...not pleasant. Not for those of us on this side of the, what was it? Fourth wall?

And there isn't even anyone there that I'll know. As amusing as I'm sure you find it to think about me dealing with my furry little problem all on my own, I've rather got used to having someone around for that. Several someones, even. It isn't fair to the other inhabitants to simply...unleash that on them.

pulchritudimouse

Oh, how exciting! [she bounces a bit happily]

So many strange places, so many new people to meet, I can't wait! We're going to have such a wonderful time together, darling.

Oh, stop being such a 'fraidy cat! I'm an agent of the Rescue Aid Society, after all. Courageous are we, and all that, don't you remember? With a little determination, there's nothing we can't handle. Now let's go!

tothebrim

You could always just put me on memes, you know! I -- uhm, I'm not sure I'm fit for a game. Unless you gave me powers like you did that once! The lights might be fun to play with again, but honestly, whatever you want to do is fine with me. I just feel like if you put me in a scary game I'd die over and over. And I -- well, I've died once, which is more than enough for me.

Honestly -- can I be honest with you? I like it right here, in the sort of... I have an account and am in Limbo way. I can do whatever you'd like me to do, but that's just my two cents!

bearkingfergus

You have no idea what you're doin' here do ya, lassie? No, I didn't think so.

Well until you figure it out I'm just gonna sit over here and finish me dinner.

[Don't mind Fergus sitting over here shoving chicken wings into his mouth...]

endswith

I know you're excited about this, but can you step back and think about this, please? I just left one place, I really don't want to be dragged into another.

easy_a

( cut for language )

whatisreality

You put me in a locked closet. There is now a man in there with me. He smells - bad. And he put his hand over my mouth. Did you really not expect me to bite him? I'm a lot of things, lady, but a pushover isn't one of them.

As for anything else? ~~Kate is~~ Women are my thing. You know that so stop snickering.

alchimia

This time, neither Winry nor Al can blame me for slacking off. S'all your fault and I'm not taking any of the blame. I got no problem with doing those tags 'cause some of them are kinda important.

No, I wasn't referring to those ones. [ cough. ] Though, I guess they're kinda—ahem—important too...

But I was talking 'bout the ones for the event 'cause you've really fallen behind on 'em. There's also that research to finish now the observatory's all patched up (don't look at me that way, how was I supposed to know she'd leave only to come back?). And don't forget 'bout building onto the house. 'Sgonna cost quite a bit of my allotted transmutations, y'know. Even with Al helping. And I'm sure Alfons'll wanna see alchemy, once he gets in...

If you're really that stumped, watch more of the damn movie again. 'Cept if you do that, you better have something strong to drink for me 'cause living through it once was enough. Seeing it all over again, each time... [ NOPE. ]

Anyway— 'fnot that, then do some meme crap or whatever. Just do something. Y'know I hate sitting 'round.

protoseph

...I fail to understand your fascination with me, given that you know of my reputation. And stop smiling about that username. It was not even your idea.

amora_the_enchantress

So this is what you've decided?

It will do for now mun. [Rolling her eyes] I suppose you tried.

But next time I'd prefer to at least have a say okay?

thesoulbound

I can't believe you put me into another one, Mun. One isn't enough? You have to put me in two?

nomorebedtimestories

N-No... Please...!

You said you would wait...

I-I'm not ready yet...

comeupblank

No.

There's enough going on at the first shithole you sent me to.

efficacy

So much for not jumping the bandwagon, I see.

Well, thank you for your consideration, I suppose. Look, I realize you have some sort of a category for "babysitters of grown men" - your words, by the way, not mine - but honestly, this seems like a dubious honor at best. At worst, well... I probably shouldn't even go there. Let's just say that I've heard some stories.

Besides, I do keep busy enough as it is. Babysitting or no.

earthlychild

Hey!

I think somebody's being irresponsible. How many promises have you made to your games this month? And how many of those did you keep?

I thought so. It's great that you think I can help somewhere. I want to go. There won't be any leaving me behind! But you're not going to break your promises for me. I'll still be here when you're ready for me, and that's another promise.

Now I'll keep mine and you'll keep yours. It's a deal now, so make sure you do it!

-Aerith

wedrankwefought

It's nice that you wanted to give some attention my way, but I promise you I was perfectly content staying out of this racket. We both know there are better things you and I can be doing with our time.

growstrangelydim

We're doing this again? Really? Didn't you learn anything last time?

Yeah. I know she's here. That's pretty much the only reason I'm not going to kick up as much a fuss as usual.

The new name's nice, if not ridiculous as fuck. Quoting a hymn, really? You should've stuck with your idea of cute and witty.

It wasn't either, by the way.

madame_butterfly

I don't want to talk about Emile, Lady Mun. That... (The thick curtain of her hair falls over her shoulder, shielding her face.) That was the worst day of my life.

I...hope...he is happier. He protected me in so many ways and I never noticed. I should have thanked him. I should have told him how much I loved him.

But it's too late. (She looks up, quizzical.) How do I feel about Lord Cain?

I...don't know. He uncovered the truth and...helped put my mother's spirit to rest, but...

Sometimes I wonder if I wasn't better off not knowing. I know I wasn't happy back then. Except...when I saw Emile. I could smile for him. Now...

Who wants me to be happy? Father? I don't know how to look at him anymore.

I wonder if he'll marry again?

Maybe the Cromwell name should die.

puppysitting

This whole self doubt you have? It has got to stop. Just do what your friends keep telling you. Branch out. Stop being afraid. Being afraid won't get you very far in anything that you do.

...I do branch out, when it's necessary. As you know, I don't trust anyone so willingly.

[He waves his hand, trying to push away the subject.]

Stop changing the subject here! This isn't focused on me. It's focused on you. Swallow that fear of yours and step into the fray. I know it will take time, but you have got to try or else you won't get anywhere.

You could try that meme place more often, and gather up the courage to... 'tag' other people.

fletching

Weren't you the one who said I'm just a pawn to them? [the Capitol, District 13, take your pick; it's six of one, half a dozen of the other, for all they care about her sometimes. she's sitting with Beetee's bow and quiver of arrows on her back, and one -- just a normal arrow, no fire or explosives in this -- in hand, running the fingers of her string hand through the fletching with the comfort and care of expertise.] You're not any better, you know.

Actually, that's not true. Coin at least knows exactly how she wants to use me, I know what they want me to do. Be the Mockingjay. You don't have any idea.

Let me know when you make up your mind.

smilederek

So you're pretty much certain that Peter's out to betray me, steal my pack, and take back the position of Alpha, but you want me to stay with him anyway? You spent days after the finale agonizing about how everything in my life is going to get worse, but now do you want me to fix things with my pack? Do you want me to come to a compromise with the Argents? Do you want me to finally earn Scott's trust?

No.

You want me to stay allied with the man who murdered my sister, and who you're certain is going to betray me.

Or maybe you don't know what you want, and you've just managed to figure out that this is the only real option I have left. It's the only bridge that actually survived being burned.

[The longest, longest pause.]

And before you say anything, that's just an expression, and I was not making a hilarious joke about the death of my entire family.

is_adaptable

Mun.

I don't even have to ask if you think this is a good idea. You and I both know that it isn't. It's a terrible idea actually.

And, let me get this straight.

You're not a comics fan at all, you have very little recollection of the past two films of my "canon", or whatever is it you call it, you didn't want to see this one at all, but ended up doing so anyway and you have little to no knowledge of me outside of this film.

They're going to eat you alive.

[ooc: possible spoilers if canonmates tag.]

destining

You're really going to do it aren't you? As if robots from the future weren't bad enough for mom and me, now I'm going to be thrown into a town all by myself and surrounded by living, breathing monsters. And we're talking all sorts of creatures. Things I don't even want to imagine, let alone accidently run across.

Thanks. No, really. You pick me up after how many years of silence and then throw this on me? I just can't get a break can I? It's one long run of one bad situation after another with you.

...

Well... at least they only come out at night. I can breathe a little before the storm.

I think we have issues.
