Sep. 21st, 2012

Much like the last dream, this one seems to be just as real...AHEM!

[ He takes a brief moment to clear his throat in hopes of getting the attention of his distracted mun. ]

I don't suppose that makes you yet another figment of my imagination, now does it? If so, then you're not quite who I would expect to come across in such a world. You claim to be a "puppeteer", yes? And that I'm suppose to be your puppet?

...Odd. Very odd.

pseudoll

Your enthusiasm is noted. [a beat] You might end up disappointed.

However, this place sounds better than the last. Thank you, and please do not put me through such torture again. [Though of course, it's all said in as flat a tone and passive an expression as possible. But come on Yin, this time you have something (or someone) to look forward to!!!]

My thoughts? ... It could be tolerable.

gutsythracian

No. No. No no no. No.

We have only just met after a year and a half of separation. You have no right to ask of me such a personal question. In fact, you have no right to ask of me that question at anytime.

Sinbad and mine's sleeping arrangements are our business and for our concerns alone.

However, I assure you, I do wake often to small puddle of Spike's drool each morning.

foranewfuture

I have a few issues to discuss with you, mundane. I wasn't opposed to you sticking me somewhere that was a little strange and had an excellent group of people, but I haven't been there any length of time before you've had me beaten within an inch of my life. Not only that but I'm stuck listening to salarians bicker between one another incessantly, not to mention the vogon poetry.

I will not even begin about the bloodrage I might consider going into on that behalf.

As it stands I might consider taking one of Wrex's methods of dealing with people if the situation doesn't improve, soon.

glassworkgenius

Mun-san. Mun-san.

Calm down!

And didn't you say you were going to stay off Dreamwidth until next week... Jeez try a little harder at keeping your promises!

walkietalkie

Um...

I think I might be in trouble. I don't know where Lee is. And I don't know where I am.

[A pause, and a definite frown.]

Why won't you tell me what happened? Lee would've told me. We're partners.

He's gonna be worried about me...

jailbreaker

Yelling at me? Yeah. That's not making me leave any faster.

And stop giving me that look. This was your idea. Not mine. They left me out of this whole mess after the last one. I'm perfectly happy staying in that plot hole, thank you very much.

Tch.

hopsborders

No. Stop.

[He bites his thumb in an ~~mature~~ attempt to contain his laughter- though the snickering is still very apparent because of this.]

I shouldn't. [Be laughing. This much.]

Where did you get this? Because [pfffffft] you could- [get in big trouble, he'd say but...] hahahaha!

Maker, I think I'm tearing up.

bullrider

So how does this work then, Mr. Mun? Never seen anythin' like it 'fore. [Cautiously pokes the screen of the computer] Some kind o' electronics? Oh an' this place called Internet? Never heard o' it, what do ya do 'ere?

fratersacrificium

You jest.

You're sending me to a world filled with these 'Personas', and yet you fail to recall the slightest hints of my history.

Not only that...you have work that is yet to be dealt with.

I hope, for your sake, you actually understand what you are trying to do.

gotacondition

You're right.

That's a terrible idea.

You don't really want me to list off the reasons why, do you? I'm not trying to discourage you, just... sometimes it's better to be realistic about your goals. You know you won't send me anyway, so why don't we just find something else to- I'm not nervous.

deceiving

So this is a test of my voice! Shall I sing? In the movies and shows of Midgard, the microphone is always tested with a short song, devoid of actual words — and as it's rather difficult to dwell on what is yet to happen, let us not.

—The discomfort shall only be temporary!

embodimentofmercy

No, I don't wanna see the Doctor dance that Gangnam Style thing y'all have got addicted to.

An' it probably ain't gonna happen anyway.

didnotwant

Hey I know you like seeing me squirm but seriously? Could you hold off just a bit?

Getting tortured in one game. That's pretty harsh even for you.

In the other game your plans are looking pretty interesting. I mean I get to have some creature comforts. Go hunting.... and I kind of like the fact you'll let me have a grudge match. Werewolf vs Dino? Awesome. Kick ass even!

But what's this about week seven? You're GIGGLING. That isn't good! Especially if that other plan you and Lindsey's player starts to progress....

Oh God. I can't trust you ever with anything because now you're just going to laugh at my pain and even more if I start to flail about awkwardly.

You're awful. You know that, right?

bubblepriest

I am glad you found for me a new home, but I would not mind meeting others, erm... from Azeroth! And perhaps a few more alliance as well? Horde do not like me as much.

That is not to say I am opposed to meeting new people. I just miss... home.

Current Mood: cheerful

twotailmechanic

Are you sure about this? You know you'll need to go on hiatus soon. Well okay, if you're sure you can comple- ...Please don't write that. I know you would like me to face my shadow again, but I already accepted mine.

[So he says.]

Hey! But seriously, try not to over do it.

bakanekona

I'm not going to be your excuse to angst.

Tch. Figures.
You don't even know where to app me, anyway.

femininehermes

Mun, you haven't given this enough thought! Even if you "put me in a game" when I'm 13 - and therefore in my Second Year, I am far too young to deal with the concepts some of these so-called "games" present!

Can you imagine me reading adult "entries"?! My parents didn't let me leave home so I could encounter such things!

Besides, I have several essays to write and Harry is worrying me. He hasn't been himself lately and I would like to get to the bottom of it.

musagetes

I am not a hipster! I have taste, and I can't stand that beer they drink. Just because I play music most people have never heard of doesn't make me a hipster. The people who have heard of it are dead.

I'm not pretentious, either.

headwings

Mundane,

Approaching every solicitation with an unappeasable attitude will only serve to increase your apprehension for it. Consider the positives rather than the negatives, and the fact that rarely is everything what it seems. You would do well, I think, to wait until you have it in your hands before passing judgement upon it.

There is still a war that needs winning, and the matter of Loki. Let us concern ourselves with battles that require my sword and worry not about a future that is still months out.

notthedoctor

Dinosaurs.
Werewolves.
Sharks.
Maybe a vampire.
A neurotic floating monitor that want to take me out so it can be the favourite Companion.
The Doctor.

I gave up Pete's World for this? What were you thinking, Mun? Rose, Jack and the others must be worried about me since I 'borrowed' the Torchwood SUV and have the keys with me in this new world. Why would I need a silly human license to drive? I can fly a TARDIS! How could a human vehicle be harder? The moped wasn't that difficult.

amereillusion

I fail to see why you are so eager to keep me in this place, mundane. The only other person there who even knows who I am is Riku, and he's hardly somebody whom I would consider a friend.

With the exception of Kairi on the reserve list, none of the others even know what a 'Nobody' is, and I'm not looking forward to having to inevitably explain it. Perhaps my Somebody counterpart would be better suited to this place?

And this... 'Terra' person. If he is whom I think he is, I doubt this will end well.

embalmed

I don't wanna go to that weird place.
It looks stupid.
It looks stupider than stupid.

There's a gross scientist man there too, right? What if he opens up my head and takes out my brain?
Or pokes it? I don't want some gross scientist man touching my brain at all.

And I can't bring Ragamuffin, either! It'd be dumb without Ragamuffin there, he's a lot of fun and that place isn't!

I mean, other than all the monsters and toys there. And I can bring my kitties, too...

[... STOMPS.]

Stop making this stupid tower look... not so stupid!

notintehkitchen

What did you say you are planning to do with me?

....

What? With Scout?! Y....you're out of your mind.

iwillnotserve

Oh, that's cool... Yeah. Real cool. I see how it is. You feel like playing the guy who you can fuck with. So of course you whip me out again just because you caught up with things. Listen, lady. I just fucking astrally projected myself through some goddamn ETHER and made myself a GHOST!

...........

I mean. I think that's what I did...?

Er- anyway. I seriously can't deal with this shit right now... Can't you just work on figuring out how I can actually find Halfpipe? ... Or someone I know? Or wait! Here's the big one! HOW ABOUT WE GET THE ROBOSPIDERS OUT OF MY FUCKING BLOODSTREAM?! THANKS.

eyefoundnoanswer

Mun, I understand you just wanted to test my voice a little...

But did you really have to pick that sort of experience for my first time out of your headspace!?

[read: he's in a tunnel of love with his sister and does not like this. ;)]

I mean, come on, there's a ton of better things I could be doing! Like being inside! And making music! And not doing that! I bet Ene's just going to laugh at me afterwards, too! Come on, mun! Why would you do this to me?

notesarcasm

Look, mun, if you wanna play games? Fine. Play your games. But I'll have you know that I am flooded with waves of intense disinterest in being your little puppet. So count me out.

howillusive

You continue to disappoint me, mundane. Your high-minded ideas of progress and change were what led to our separation, and simply because you're fond gives you no excuse to simply pull me out for your own amusement.

I'm a busy man, and I have no time for your whims. If you want to do something, then take initiative, rather than simply occupying my time with nonsense. If you had a plan, then perhaps we could speak on this further. Until then, I have more pressing matters to attend to.

bagofmilkyways

M...Mundane... [ A shaky breath, but he manages a resolved look in the end. ] I shall... carry on. No matter what you decide for me.

moltenman

Mun, it's been a while. Now I only have one thing to ask: are you insane? The one request I had, and you want this? One place has Spiderman from my universe, the other has... Norman Osborn. And you want me in one of those games.

I hate you so much.

[Yeah I get the picture, volcano-boy.]

Mark Allan, wishing you'd die in a fire already.

Current Mood: curious

doesnthavefleas

What? Seriously? No, this is great! I mean, yeah, I do have some stuff to finish back home but it'd be nice to get to stretch my legs again.

The premise? Nah, I haven't read it. But seriously, it would be a piece of cake! Really, out of all the countless amount of monsters, sorcerers, and other-wordly beings I've taken care of, is there anything I can't handle?

--Er, no, don't answer that.

Leeeeet's just concentrate on getting there first. Then I'll do what I do best; I'll improvise.

You know, thinking about killing someone isn't going to get your work done any faster. No, coming here and talking to me isn't going to help either. Wha-

NO! YOU CAN NOT MURDER YOU BOSS AND PUT THE BLAME ON ME! ...no, I won't stand near him until someone wants to shoot me either. No, you cannot push him out the window. Mun, your office doesn't even have windows. Where are you going to find poison at this time of night to put in his drink anyway? I think a bomb would be a bit extreme... and messy.

Huh? A whole box of donuts just for me?! All I have to do is let you see my gun for a minute?!

Waiiiiiit a second. Oh, that's low. Can't I have the donuts anyway?

For the last time NO! I will not help you kill your boss! Why are you even thinking of me!? Go talk to that weird dragon-thing girl in your head. LEAVE ME ALONE!

Man, I mean really. Can't we all just get along? Just remember you have that comic convention thing. Two whole extra days of work will help you maybe buy something there instead of just staring! Huh!? What do you say!?

...no. Not even for two boxes. [Sigh.]

confined_to_briah

I fear none of the punishments the City has to offer. Far too much time has passed since my arrival and I have grown tired of watching the citizens accept curse after curse as if they have no other choice.

There is always a choice. Together, we could (and will) wield significant power. ( Enough to leave a mark. ) I will accept "the inevitable punishment" (when the time comes) for taking the first step. Everyone deserves the freedom to discover their own happiness.

Do not feel any concern for me, Mun. Carry on.

gamblingwithdistortion

My Lady, what purpose do you wish me to fulfill? Your heart was bold in choosing me, yet perhaps further thought should have warranted careful treading.You are following blind instincts in my respect.

pistolsakimbo

W-wow... mundane, right? You're actually taking me outta VX, and putting me on that 'interweb' thing you always talk about?

...

THIS IS SO COOL!

Wow, wow, wow! I get to be in a game like all those other people you play?! For real?! A-and I'm going to a place that's from before the Great Collapse? With cars and buildings a-and... and...

...you are seriously the best person ever.

myninjainfocard

No.

I don't care how many times you think about it, how many times you try to spin it, how many times you try and tell me I'll get to do something.

No.

Putting me in a place that is... disgustingly peaceful other than the fighting of creatures, where nothing seems to die, where even the "bad guys" are nothing more than annoyances, where a twelve-year-old kid can defeat them using a rat seems like an awful idea. You know what I want to do.

You know what you want to do with me.

You know that something like that would not allow me to continue on the path of medical and scientific advancement, to where I have subjects that I am allowed to use in my studies and experiments.

As much as I would love to "teach" that little Uchiha ~~brat~~ without interference, this won't do. Put me somewhere else and bring one of your happier and "saner", as you put it, characters out to go there instead.

1_truth

I don't believe in ghosts or monsters.

Why would you think it would be a good idea to stick me on a haunted ship? Although... I guess I can prove to everyone the monsters are fake...

godtellsnolies

.... Another place like this? Is this really the best you have to offer a god?

Sigh. Honestly, we can do this until you die... We can do this until your entire world dies. It won't matter.

This will never get more interesting. You could have at least found me Ganymede first.

fangsandscones

[He takes his time, though he probably doesn't mean to speak at all unless prompted. It's just the way the Vampire is and so he hardly minds it as his Mun starts to fidget in anticipation for him to communicate verbally. Instead, he continues to look on calmly, almost blankly, as he stands in silent, preternatural stillness. Finally, after a long period spent just staring back at his Mun, he finally decides to talk, his voice low and a bit hoarse from lack of use.]

...I've got nothing to say. And neither does that other one you're keen on bothering at the moment.

[He stops. He's done, but his Mun's attention doesn't waver. The vampire just continues to stare back, unblinking, silent.]

[This can go on for a while...]

the_other_green_seeker

So... a journal, huh? Not bad, I guess.

You actually gonna do something with me again now, or am I gonna have to go back to playing 'Guess That Fish' with Cloudkicker and Snowfall?

It's been a while. Missed me that much, huh?

achilleus

I can't imagine that it is here, of all places, that my name will find eternal glory. What honour is to be had in pitting me against the lame and mediocre?

[ Amusement turns the corners of his mouth — a curve that's less a crowing boast so much as a long-accepted fact. Achilles has no peers here. ]

... She will not approve. [ Thetis. Idle fingers rub a fold within the fall of his tunic, restless without his lyre. ] Now, even less than before.

[ He pauses, if only briefly, before lifting green eyes to level his Mun; ]

Patroclus will come too.

[ It isn't a question. Achilles' smile grows with easy self-satisfaction. ]

I will wait.

supernovas

Being here makes little difference, I still have zero interest in making conversation with you mundane. It is strange, that you would try bombard me with questions when it is your job to know me better than I know myself.

You concern for my social skills is misguided.

moonlitsong

I'm still not completely sure how that song reminds you of me. I suppose it isn't a bad thing however. At least you are thinking of me in a manner other than how you can embarrass me somehow.

[A slight sigh goes here.]

You're very troubling sometimes.

magicalrealist

I think it's great to see the community work so hard to put things like this together. It really does say a lot about the magic of friendship and what anypony can accomplish with willpower and hard work.

I know you're really excited about it and want to see more, but the first act just came out. It'll take some time before the next one does. It's nice to see they included so many ponies into it, even Trixie. I'll admit, I'm surprised to see she'd make a return to Ponyville, but everypony does deserve a second chance; I'm glad the writing behind that and the rest of the game was handled in a believable fashion.

...yes, the horror element doesn't make sense, but it wouldn't be horror if you knew everything at the beginning, would it? Just give it some time...and stop with the funny thoughts just because I'm the one who knocked on the protagonist pony's door; you triggered a few event flags that brought you to my storyline, that's it. That's how visual novels work, right? You make a few decisions and the path you unlock pays you a visit before the end of the first act?

...wait, why am I asking you? You don't know either!

insanerthanyou

Silly mun.

You can't put me in a game. Games mean people. And being special means being alone. You taught me that. Remember? When you put me away in your brain and didn't let me out again.

Locked the door; took away the key. Remember?

Thought I wasn't balanced; too strong. Not nice. Thought people wouldn't play with me. Probably thought right. So you locked me away in your head.

...Should make you into shoes; for thinking about it. Shoes don't think. Much.

bluesteelranger

...You impossible Creator. You are impossible! The balance between Kisareth and here is easily kept. Now get back in the ring! We both know errors like the past will be guarded against.

Besides. I wish to at least meet this Mick-gell....despite the fact he sounds like a human. I have not met many Humans who could cook, let alone like to.

...What? You already know I despise Humans. What makes you think writing will change that? Oh, you are finally working on that story again, are you? At least you are planning it out. Just please...Do not make me bite Rita-witch's foot again. That tasted disgusting and I will not do it again even if it might be amusing.

You what? WHAT? No. No. Guardians they may be, I will NOT contact them!

Just get back in there, you stupid human. ::growls::

.....I want coffee.

Oh, please.

You mean to tell me that you dragged my cookies all the way over to this site here just so maybe, MAYBE someone would talk to me?

That's...actually pretty sad. Not sad because I'm lonely, boo-hoo - I'm not like that, not anymore. But sad for you, sitting there with your sad puppy dog eyes, tapping at your keyboard and worrying, worrying, worrying.

I've got some news for you.

NO ONE CARES.

You're sick, aren't you? Shouldn't you be resting, instead of beating a dead horse?

Or dead frog, I guess.

ordinarily

I get to go somewhere where I can have a cool weapon to defend myself with, and you give me a thermos.

I don't even know what to say to you right now.

wizard_kid

I don't understand. Who are you, and why did you bring me here?

[Beat.]

And why are you squealing like that?

spotterinacopter

I think you're taking this a bit too fast. You don't even know if you can play me properly and you're already looking for a game! And no, I don't find it amusing that I'm telling you to slow down. This very different from racing! You're playing me and I just want to make sure you do me justice!

But if you're positive this isn't just some "nostalgia binge" from re-watching the show, then I suppose I don't really see a problem with this. You're treating the others just fine, so I believe you won't send me anywhere crazy.

I think we have issues.
