Lady Mundane, I do not understand. What is the purpose of this realm? For what reason must you test your voice?

... Ah, a thousand pardons. However I see no reason for you to test my voice, either. You already have the Man of Iron as a companion and I have other battles to fight. Back home. Battles for which I need my voice. I cannot spare it for such trivial matters as playing with dinner.

[Even if Thor really doesn't see what playing with rolls has to do with the voice]

Allow me to pass, and we shall speak on this another time.

belmont

I agree: it is almost surreal, Mundane. I am most honored.

Thanks for making me some new pictures, they're great and all, but I think you went overboard a little. There's only room for fifteen, and you made what, a hundred something? And you still have three issues to do.

No offense, but you can stop now.

roamin_emotion

I'm glad to see that you've gotten a new computer, Mun! It's so shiny...! I'm glad you haven't forgotten about me, even after that summer break! As much as I appreciate your thinking about my home, Lake Verity, I don't think you needed to make that "musebox" for me.

[I think you've forgotten something... Think about what's in a couple of days.]

...Wait, it's a present for me? Oh, how could I forget that? Well, thank you then~! I'm sure I'll enjoy it!

You know, many people think of Norse mythology as having to do with the countries of Scandinavia, when it's actually a subset of Germanic mythology. Most of the legends were lost until the Viking Revival of the 16th century.

I-It's a bit insane to send me to a real life version of Asgard, but I've learned that arguing with you usually proves futile. You want to put me in Odin, which makes the most sense. The fact that I'm to be given some sort of power is.. disconcerting. If you're having trouble choosing, a effective method is to usually write out the pros and cons of each choice.

Also, I direct you to Robert Frost's poem "Fire and Ice". Maybe that will clear things up.

You're drawn to the last three lines "... destruction ice / Is also great / And would suffice." Fire can do a lot more damage, but you see me as passive. Passive, but still able to inflict damage. Ice seems mostly harmless to the casual observer. There were 477 ice-related deaths in 2010.

Seems as though you've made your decision now.

Also, w-why are you looking at my supposed power as a weapon? Perhaps I'd rather use it to cook food or cool drinks.

amberdrake

I hardly think it's your fault, even if your timing is... less than desirable.

Games have these problems all the time, do they not? Yes, that one game died right after you joined as that... Antivan fellow, and this one is undergoing some form of major change in power, but this happens to every game. Even the ones you've never heard of.

You can't logically believe that you're cursed when you're not always involved, now can you?

Yes, you see now. Logically the only real explanation is terrible luck. And we all have that happen, don't we? Even the mighty Urtho had his moments of poor timing and poor luck.

Well of course he wasn't trying to 'role play'. At least, not during the war. But the stakes were a bit higher, don't you think?

I'll tell you what I think; I think you're worrying over nothing, and take that from me-- I am an expert at worrying over nothing! Perhaps by the time 'apps open' next month, things will have sorted themselves out for the best, and tying yourself in mental knots will have been for nothing. It's just as likely as any other outcome.

Now, doctor's orders: you're to drink a nice mug of tea and read a good book. No more fretting over this place until at least September. Off with you!

staircases

[ He's waiting. Again. ]

Or you could just finish the app.

halfassed

No, I have never been to Alaska. No, I'm not particularly inclined to go to Alaska, especially after that. Really just seems like tempting fate, to me.

God help the town that has Loki as its doctor.

bottlewished

You still haven't decided have you?

That's okay, you shouldn't rush yourself! There's plenty of time left for you to canon review! As you said, it's been ages since you played my canon!

I'm definitely sure that Riku and Sora will be fine on their own...or at least I hope so.

osmanli_devleti

So mundane, ya finally decided ta take me here as well. I hope ya missed me at least?

Question is, what yer gonna do with me now?

... What do ya mean "I didn't think things through", are ya kiddin' me?!

neckerchiefed

So you're intent on this? Well, I suppose illusions are pretty cool, and I wouldn't need to worry about dreamwalking if Arthur's ability is to sort of create the dream. I could do that. It could work, feasibly. Well as much as the PASIV does.

I'm not entirely sure I like the idea that the job went bad, but well, it gives an excuse to get into the country. But you've got no real plans besides that. Like what am I supposed to do in the meantime? You don't know when Arthur's coming. I can't just-- do illegal things in the meantime. I barely know enough about this world, let alone orchestrate anything.

Not that I couldn't. I'd just need to find someone with dream abilities. Besides how illegal is this exactly?

MADEMOISELLE

THIS 'ICON,' AS YOU CALL IT, IS NOT NEARLY AS AMUSING AS YOU SEEM TO THINK, REPEATEDLY AND AT LENGTH. ERIK'S FACE IS A PERSONAL THING. NO ONE MAY SEE IT AND LIVE! AND YET YOU PARADE THIS GHASTLY MISREPRESENTATION NOT MERELY WITHOUT REGARD FOR MY MODESTY, BUT WITH EVIDENT ATTEMPT TO MAKE OTHERS LAUGH!

IF SUCH IS YOUR DISRESPECT FOR ERIK, YOU ARE NOT WORTHY TO REPRESENT HIM IN WHATEVER MELODRAMA OR FARCE YOU ARE INVOLVED IN THESE DAYS. WE HAVE BEEN COMPANIONS FOR NEARLY TWENTY YEARS, NOW, AND AT NO POINT HAVE I BEEN MORE DISAPPOINTED IN YOUR IMMATURITY.

EXCEPT PERHAPS THE TIME YOU WISHED TO WATCH THE ONE WITH THE RATS AGAIN.

YOURS IN PROTEST,

O.G.

population_ctrl

Boredom is self-inflicted, isn't it?

[Chuckle.]

Go on. Losing at life is such a useful talent.

inebriety

Darling, it's a little late to get worried. You've already finished that application, found someone to bring in Clint with me and 'voicetested' me here and there.

[How hard could it be to play a depressed drunk... right?]

I'm not going to dissuade you, if that's what you want. [A brain tumour in stasis is a beautiful thing.] We both know this is merely temporary and you'll do it anyway.

strangestbluerose

The museum was a playground compared to this place. I'll find my way out. I promised her I'd see her again. You can't make me break that. ....not to her.

shilowallace

I guess to quote you, "that awkward moment when" it's my birthday and I'm seventeen again, for the fourth time in a row. Let's make sure this doesn't happen again, next year, okay? For real, this time.

needsnokey

Really now, Miss Mundane, you can't expect to play both myself and my sister. Don't you think you're biting off a bit more than you can chew?

No?

Well, I suppose it will be nice to see things outside of London. Perhaps an adventure is just what's needed! Though, you shall have to explain...certain things, but we shall cross those bridges when we get to them, won't we?

[ooc: possible spoilers for alice: madness returns in the comments, should canonmates tag in.]

fierybeatdown

Sooooo... finally found me a home, did you? I guess congratulations are in order, then?

Congratulations on finally getting off your lazy butt and doing something with me. It's only been, what, two months since you revived me? That has to be a record or something: longest time you've ever taken to find a muse a home. Forgive me if I'm not stroking your ego enough, here.

[Axel is appreciative to potentially have a home, finally; really he is. He just has a funny way of showing it.]

gleans

Hey, dude, don't sweat this art thing. You're back in class, what, a week from Thursday? Then you'll have fucking figure references out your ears. Chill, you're gonna be fine. Just... don't stop 'til then, y'know?

So -- last night. A hundred percent on board. You've gotta get this back somehow, and come on, you're sitting on top of an entire goddamn novel. It's right there. You went into game-mode in December, and -- hate to say it, man, but you kinda got stuck. -- Except for the update, sure, but you know what I mean, right? This is your shit, pick it up. That 50k might look like a lot, but how much of it is honestly done? Honestly? ... Yeah. We are so not finished here, dude. Get those sheets, get that stuff done today. I wanna get things going again.

Uh, on the game front, though -- ffffffuck. ... That's pretty much it. -- Oh, I need arrows. And Kid wants to get stuff over with, so there's that, too.

Later,
Galen

2ndic_motherhen

Ah miss,

Yes, it is completely logical and expected that despite the odd circumstances in which all of us brought into that place that not everyone would think a ceasefire would be needed. Completely understandable if disheartening that the fact most of us are from universes still at war that it would bleed into this setting, yet was such a gruesome sight truly necessary? The poor medical staff are likely still identifying everyone and I feel a great deal of worry for the neutrals that may have been caught in that massacre.

I also must ask about what you are planning for myself in regards to being new and thus not fully prepared to know who is actually following the ceasefire and who is not, when it comes to dealing with those who were my allies back home. Cliffjumper did not go into specifics, but he did give a great deal of general knowledge when it comes to what I should expect in regards to these reverse polarity universes.

Oh! I am grateful you do recall such and are thus going to act accordingly in regards to my actions with the rest of the Decepticons within that place...what do you mean by plan b? Miss?

idkworldruler

Huh? Er, hey mun-guy...are you certain that you don't want me to be affected by the bees? I mean, I know that you've already decided on a character history for me and all...but wouldn't it be much easier to just use the one that the game's writers gave to player's characters?

Just a thought.

predictor

Winging it? You're actually considering just winging it?

Not that I don't admire the "don't give a shit" attitude here, but this isn't really where you want to wing it. Especially not with what you're planning on doing. And by the way? Not happy about that.

( SPOILERS! )

rebel_loyalist

It's fine to have mixed feelings about this game, Mundane, but you should be slow to dismiss it as a failure. After all, how long have you waited for it now? Over a year's time, yes? If you decide now that you will not even try it, all that time and anticipation will have been for nothing.

heylinwitch

Awwww...

I take it this means you missed me.

I feel absolutely flattered.

Don't forget, you have to sleep sometime...we'll see how clever you are then.

cross_of_the_rose

...Don't go bragging about how obscure I am. It is better if Rosenkreutz works behind the scenes, out of the public eye. Likewise, it would be quite... unsettling if I were to see another of myself here.

It's bad enough that I'm guaranteed to meet her again. I've... moved on from that time in my life, and yet you insist on bringing me back to it.

[That's an utter lie; she'll never really move on.]

You have no intent on taking me anywhere, so leave me be. There's work to be done, as always.

abnorman

[Sigh.] Mun-lady...not to rush you or anything, but I wish you'd just make up your mind. Are you gonna send me somewhere or not? And if you are...I still want to be able to go back to Blithe Hollow.

You know...maybe you should just wait. You know, for more screenshots, so you can make more icons? And so you can. You know. Think more about this and decide that it's really not a good idea...since it's not.

golemized

I'm to go to a ship, am I? Fine. It will be better than standing here to gather dust, and perhaps I will be able to squish things. Heads, preferably.

But must there be birds?

wherethestoryis

...

Yeah, you know what? I'm glad you're enjoying reading, and there is some promise, at least in Metropolis. Maybe one day I'll even be pleased about it all.

Just don't take me into the reboot.

bookishpassion

Oh. Oh my.

I am a bit flattered that out of all the other "muses" (as you call us) you have, you have chosen me. It has been a while, has it not, my dear mun?

Though I am quite surprised that you decided to bring me out again, I wonder, why is it that you have chosen to do so?

[Insert thoughtful expression here.]

Ah, so you deem me sensible. That is... quite the compliment.

[She gives a soft, yet confident, smile.]

Then I suppose that you are looking for me to give you some rational advice concerning my presence.

I will be truthful; I am happy that I have not been forgotten. This is a rather large step for you. It has been five... six... months since you have been active in this world. Ease yourself back in, but be mindful of your own time and obligations. Patience, and take hold of your bearings.

I suppose that is all I have to say about your current situation... But as for myself, I so miss speaking to others. It feels refreshing to be about again.

weepingnurse

I-I'm truly grateful you've decided to pick me up, mundane! I honestly mean that from the bottom of my heart! It's made me really, really happy... A-and even though I'm being such a bother to you, p-please don't hate me!

I'm sorry! That was a very selfish thing to say. You're already being so kind to me, but I'm acting so ungrateful! Please forgive me, mundane!

[OOC: Gonna do my best not to spoil the end of DR 1 or any of DR 2!]

wittlich

As...displeased as I am about being dragged away from the game before its conclusion, I'll have to commend you on your taste in gameboards, Mundane. The one called "Asgard" needs polishing, however.

I don't think I'll be bored for a long time. [Giggle-giggle.]

badass_xemnas

Sometimes your stupidity gets the better of you, mun. Calling me a Heartless bastard is not very nice, is it? I don't tempt people into their own fate. It happens. Hmph. Sora and his little friends are nothing to me. So, don't look at me like that. I will achieve what I set out to achieve. I know how to run my life.

I don't need you. Go away. Now. Be a good little mun and scamper back off to play video games or whatever you do. I just need to think on certain areas. Also, this Sephiroth guy keeps coming up in your mind. I do not look like him, alright? End of that story.

Praetor!

Let us find a suitable stage! While I am easily capable of overcoming any hardship that one of these games may present, only the most epic of challenges are worthy to be placed before me! It should be equal to- no, greater than the trials of Hercules himself!

judgedredd

One comic book does not make you an expert on Mega City, nor does it qualify you to consider playing Judge Anderson. Or me.

Besides you are very wrong if you think that putting me on a space ship would enable me to assist the security [Is that...a snort of amusement? No. No it's nothing. Dredd does not have emotions.] professionals with their tasks.

It is not my jurisdiction.

Bringing the law to the wastelands is one thing. Bringing it to a transport class vessel is another.

I don't care how much you watch that so-called "special". You're not cutting my hair. Not unless you pay me a lot of beri.

C'mon. At least think about doing the app sometime this century? We both know you'll give in sooner or later, so let's try for sooner, huh? And don't tell me you're waiting for rainy weather 'cause you write better when it rains. I'll give you rain, and the lightning to go along with it.

overdosing

Ach, you - of all the ridiculous suggestions! I have not even been here for a day and already you are making these grand plans for my future! Such nerve from such a tiny fräulein. Do I not get a chance to dig my fingers into your skull first? What about a vivisection? A very little one.

...You could at least offer to buy me dinner.

If I want to fritter my time away, I will do it with a BLU! Or, more presently, one of those robots. Even they would know how to show me a good time before dying screaming. [a beat.] Or beeping.

Lemme guess. You want me t'remember what happened on the station 'cuz you wanna torment me with it.

I got you figured out by now, you loopy dame. And fuck you. Things didn't work out-- they never do. Don't need you rubbin' my face in it.

I'd love to see her 'gain. Or Jin, or Cathy, or any of 'em. But that ain't gonna happen. So at least let me forget. Don't ask for much, but you can at least gimme that kinda mercy, yeah?

doubletailpilot

Mun?

You sure this is a good idea? I mean, you already got some of those other guys to deal with. Plus, I'm new 'round here! And I thought Sonic moved too fast sometimes...

[A small, exasperated groan.]

Y'know, if even you say you know what you're doin', I'm still not so sure. And I can't just up and leave South Island!! If Robotnik gets up to something and I'm not there to help and this ends up a whole big mess when I get back, Sonic's gonna be mad and it's gonna be all your fault!

[The fox is flailing as he rants, but pfft, who listens to muses when they get like this anyway?]

Oh Sweet Pea, of course you couldn't resist taking me up. Very few can...[She smirks a little at that]

But while the idea of a tropical island being something like the Blooming Rose but without the need for coins is very...tempting, I'm not sure I am all for having the open sea right there and not being able to sail it. Even you have to admit that it's a bit cruel from you. It's like putting on display your favorite piece of...let's say meat, and not being able to take a single bite out of it.

Oh. Are you saying that my favorite mage and elf are both already there? Well, why didn't you say so sooner, darling? This is bound to be entertaining enough. [She looks thoroughly amused at the thought.]

...And what's this again about whipped cream coming out of a can?

kingofthetvworld

I don't see what all the hubbub is! Finally I'll be rewarded for wrecking stuff instead of just getting yelled at or sent to the corner or something. It's a good thing! Things are finally looking up Teddie!

I hope we'll have cool super secret meetings and--oh! Oh! Matching jackets! Every cool group has to have snazzy jackets.

I might even grab one for you, munnie, but only if you're extra nice to me~

I think we have issues.
