Uh, mun?

Look, I really appreciate you picking me up and all, but what's the point if you're not going to send me anywhere cool?

Living in your head?

BOOOORING!

Ponyville's best athlete can't just sit around doing nothing!

amberwaves

OH MY GOD WHY WOULD YOU EVER WANT COMMUNISTS AT OUR GAME???? Stop talking to Ukraine's mun about wanting that fatass okay.

girly_trotting

You have been sad, and watching favorite episodes and reading fanfiction has been making it better. That one fiction you read on the possible prejudices of mixed breeds titillates. I will have to see if such hybridization has occurred in my home...though there is a trickster in our lore I would not put it past at all.

But...on another note...twice have the ponies of Ponyville dealt with rather problematic traveling show ponies. Should I worry if the exhibit finds it's way to that town? My purpose is fun and learning, not bragging or selling poor products!

Ah. My Equestrian is not good, but you understand!

redandgold

...So. Here I am.

AAaand you've no idea what to do with me, do you? Maybe wanna give my canon one more read through?

notmygrandfather

[vaguely-impatient sigh]

It's your own fault your datapad-- laptop-- doesn't work. You knew you would trip over that cable, but you went ahead and put your drink right beside it anyway. You're just lucky you can still use keyboard commands and it's just the mousepad that's broken.

But I get why that's bad for RPing. Don't worry, Grandpa will unde-- ... Grandpa will get over it. And in that other game, with that other kid -- you've got a week, you'll have a spare mouse by then.

To answer your original question -- no, I can't magically make this fifteen year old computer usable for more than one window at a time. I think you misunderstand how the Force works.

Keep watching DVDs instead. Maybe you could start that rewatch of Grandpa's show, I hear the new season started...?

wordslikeknives

Dear Mun,

Now, now, I think you're getting a little ahead of yourself. As flattering as it is that you took the time to put this all together for me, you should really be getting to bed. And don't you try to lie to me saying you're not tired! It's almost two am and you have to get up in the morning.

We can talk about whatever plans you might have for me another time; and believe me, we're going to have a long talk about that. Just get some rest, alright?

bittercourage

You're sending me to another world? ......

I cannot stop you, but I refuse to befriend creatures of evil! I won't forget what Dracula and his kind have done.

[Mun isn't exactly talking about evil preternatural creatures here, but Carrie is Carrie and Carrie is stubborn.]

sixthsamurai

I refuse.

abandonedlegacy

Woah woah, watch it lady.

( SERIOUSLY. SPOILERS. )

I think it's too early for you to be looking anywhere, anyway. Look at what you have in bold letters up there, smart ass. Those spoilers? Pretty sure a lot of people aren't too fond of them.

big_badass_hero

Kid

Really get your ass to bed already. Whatever else you need to get done can wait until after you get a few hours. Besides, can't do anything with that one project until you go get another ball of that string, and the store doesn't open for five more hours so more than enough time to get some sleep.

soulfood

So are you actually looking for a place, or are you just gonna back out again?

I get that you're boring, but the truth is, I'm fine either way. There's something you shoulda realized by now: I can look after myself no matter where I end up, and you're just a lazy punk. Guess we don't have a lot in common, huh? Too bad.

Anyway, just make up your damn mind.

frostythesnowpheasant

( Cut in case anyone wants to remain totally unspoiled )

badluckbabe

Oh like I'm the ONLY one with guilt issues.

It's not like I asked to be infected with a conscience.

It's not "cute" that I would blame myself!

Stop it!

roseintheshade

I don't know what you're talking about. My eyebrows are perfectly fine. What they're doing right now is perfectly reasonable. How you could presume this to be the least bit inappropriate is beyond me and I will not "get a handle on them before they start a goddamn fire".

I don't see any risk of fire hazard either. You're overreacting.

oedipalhell

"Oedipal Hell"??? Really???

You could have made my name anything and you chose that???

Of course there are other things you could have chosen! Cockaroachfarmer, snailkeepe-...well no, not snailkeeper. Reminds me of her...

Well...I suppose at least headspace is better them being on the streets, all things considered...even with that other man with my face wandering around in here. I wish he'd stop giving me that sad frown. You didn't tell him what the name means, did you???

beltet

( possible spoilers for 2.01 )

wemaketheworld

...would appreciate if you would stop badgering. Issue still isn't available yet. Will not become so by continuing to check.

Should be more concerned with job. Assume there is something you could be doing that doesn't include preoccupation with past incidents you aren't even sure you want to accept.

Isn't healthy. Already have history. Don't require more stories. Not after Nite Owl's treatment.

[Grumble grumble] Tricked into ambush. Ridiculous. Really was new.

itemcheckgirl

Hey, mun? I have important things I need to do. Like tapping my fingers on the counter or something. Can we get this over with so I can go back to doing that?

sketchingideals

Mun, stop thinking about what Tori would wish for if she became one of the magical girls from that world. With what you have planned for us in our own world, don't you think she's suffered enough?! You don't need to think about these other ideas, and I don't care how theoretical they are! Just stop thinking about it!

[He realizes how angry and upset he's become, all too aware of the tears running down his face. He rubs those away with the sleeve of his hoodie immediately.]

I... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get so upset with you, Mun. Even if they're ideas you'd probably never write out, I-I just... what could possibly happen is unbearable to think about, you're already making me wonder if she died back home while I'm at Luceti... so it's too much. It's just too much.

yardbird

You.

After all that's happened, you still act like this is some kinda success or somethin', don't you? Well, guess what -- it's not. You know how many people are gettin' fucked over because of...?

[God only knows why he bothers at this point. It's not like he's ever had any control of his fate before. Why the hell should that change now?

[He sighs. It was bad enough when he had to deal with his personal demons coming back in Silent Hill. Didn't seem like there were any loose ends left to tie, but he's been wrong before.]

...I'm gonna hold you personally responsible for this mess.

Just... Christ, leave me the hell alone for awhile. Trust me, you've done enough.

burnthewitch

Man, you really weren't kidding about being rusty. Have you ever thought about trying meditation? No? Yeah, I can't say I blame you. While I'm still not sure how comfortable I am with this whole situation, it's clear that my success is directly impacted by your success. So get it together fast or there are gonna be some problems.

...I probably just made it worse, didn't I?

favoritechild

[This is no "swag Once-ler" you're looking at, but a simple genderbend taken to a whole different level. The fifteen-year-old girl taps the side of her sunglasses before she speaks in a Southern drawl.]

Really, munnie, darlin', a tower with monsters an' mysteries is no place for a lady. I know you don't have the faintest idea of what a proper lady is like, so just take me word for it, all right? I--

No, I didn't say that! I could so solve those mysteries! You know I'm far more clever than most! I just-- Ugh! Why do you have to make my life so difficult? This isn't fair, man!

...

[Deeeep breath.]

All right, now, Munnie, I am willin' ta compromise with ya. Ya can keep me away from that borin' ol' farm for as long as you want, so long as I don't end up in that nasty tower.

messiahed

( spoilers under cut )

like_my_pet

Sure do like being stuck in your head.

[A pause.]

Oh, no, wait, I don't. On the other hand...

[Another, longer pause.]

Don't even think about putting me in a damn game.

falsehoods

Well, that was horrible.

Perhaps next time you decide to throw me into a nightmare that drags up unsolicited memories of my childhood you will have the decency to warn me first.

The best thing to come of this was that I was finally able to strike out against someone on board this odious vessel. If only I'd had my wits about me at the time, then I could truly have enjoyed it.

..I wonder if I shall ever see that "Bat-man" again...

asuran_hero

Three days late. Why am I not surprised? Well, at least you got it in during the timeframe, so I suppose I can't complain too much.

[You still will.]

Of course I will. You practically threw it together at the last minute. It's not as if you were lacking in time, bookah. Your time management skills are appalling, and you honestly think you can bring me in?

[But...I...]

Though I am pleased you took my suggestion to change your elementalist to an Asura in the new game. You can be taught, it seems.

[You're going to have so much negative CR. I can already see it.]

Negative, positive, it doesn't matter much to me as you very well know. Just as long as I'm allowed to continue my research.

[Oh God, why am I doing this again?]

Because you're a masochist, bookah.

[...]

mountain_sage

Ah...Lady Mun, are you certain about this? That place looks...demanding.

No, I can fend for myself. It's you that I'm concerned for. You have three games for me already. I've no wish for you to overexert yourself, is all. Please, consider this carefully and wisely before you act.

Thank you.

madcuriosity

I do not have something that lures in vampires!

I can't help that I seem to get along with them either! There's nothing wrong with that!

cater

You act like wants are of use. I'm not surprised. It's not judgment. Gluttony versus lust, greed. We all have our own hells.

I'm simply asking you to chose yours. I have enough to do. Big day, as I said.

Sleeping.

Guess I got what I was looking for.

carpetletsmove

Mm-hmm.

So what you're saying is this: I let you drop me into this game, and my days of scraping by for food are done?

Tell me this, then: What are you getting out of it?

((EDIT: pre-movie, cartoon series is canon. HAVE AT 'IM.))

swordofshield

Really.

You're surprised.

Because I've seen this coming since, oh.

May.

mojavewildcard

Mundane,

I know you say the game's "addicting", but don't you have something else you're supposed to be doing? Something involving other characters? Like plotting your story for next month?

I really don't think playing a game about a Wasteland is going to help you with a horror story set in space. Unless I get sent to space, and I'm pretty sure that only the Lone Wanderer gets that bit of DLC fun.

And as much fun as it's going to be to get my brain stolen by mad scientists, stuck in a city filled with toxic gas and forced to find out I accidently destroyed a thriving community..... Yeah, I think I can take a break. Really. I don't mind.

I know I'm in Zion right now but I know you. You can't play for only a short amount of time. Sooner or later I'd end up with my brain sucked out, and yes I am trying to put that off for as long as possible. Even if it is your favourite, and you've promised me new tech to play with there. Don't try to bribe me, I fell for that the time you wanted me to go look around REPCONN and was swarmed by feral ghouls.

So in short. Get back to work. The wasteland has a pause button, your life doesn't.

-The Courier

reconcilier

Whom shall I converse with today? Have you friends that know of my presence here? Ah, no matter.

Your practice, and my calm before the storm. I will endure your teasing and potion jokes until the day this "game" opens. No longer. There will be many challenges to face in the coming weeks.

[Hey Larsa, did you know that characters will be trapped in this game of yours for a really long time?] Beg pardon. Months?

[Longer!] Years. ...Years.

[And then he takes the time to glance up at the subject header. What are you doing. Stop that right now.] I— no, mundane, it is not worth mentioning here. I will be fine. Let them rest.

protosshaze

So am I finally going somewhere now, miss mun? I would like that a lot. I know Asbel may not be there, but that's all right. I'm going to make lots of new friends.

scienderp

Are you quite certain you wish to do this? So close to applying for a college class? I don't believe you'll have the time for two games. Besides, it is such... a small world. I don't think I would manage to get along very well in there, and I believe I would outstay my welcome very shortly.

I think you should try and think this through a little better before you leap into it. Please?

It could do you no harm.

betterthisway

You are hardly a machine. Humans don't rust to my knowledge. There are many unsanitary things humans do, but rusting is not among them.

Of course, your emotional turmoil might have hindered you embracing our time together. It's alright, though. I waited right where you asked me to. Now we can play some board games. Pick flowers. And bees, have I told you about the bees?

Well, I can just tell you about them again. Appreciate them, they have the plan all figured out. You might want to start with pants. And, and you could have sandwiches.

All... peaceful kinds of activities. Those are good. We're good, right?

Right.

There's no need to make me better. I'm good. I'm fine.

I don't even see Lucifer anymore.

Most of the time.

It's all good... yes.

rokudorinne

[Excuse the puntastic title. Even Mukuro looks... tad surprised by the sudden appearance of that guy.]

I have to say, such a commendable plot twist.

loyaldoubleagent

How dreadfully ineffective such a thing as this is, and a much wasted amount of effort and efficiency in suffering us both through this. You are not even aware of the 'when' in which you wish to draw my knowledge of events from, let alone if this will be anything more then a tired exercise of futility.

Go back to your little autobots, organic. I have tasks of a great importance I could be doing instead of being forced to speak with you.

getfreki

This could be an interesting side venture, but you've got things to do and I should to get back to helping my lord Odin become the man-god he's meant to be and all that. You should at least watch the rest of the episodes before you do anything with me.

But I see you're doing this anyway. Good luck with that.

allurcolonies

...I see that you have your life back in order. And for that I congratulate you.

However, is there a specific reason that you are looking at me again? I would have enjoyed it if you had left me alone. But now you are looking at more of those games to put me in

[Sighs.]

...Fine, however I want you to write a full essay on my culture and history before you do anything again. You really do need to brush up on it.

amora_the_enchantress

So Miss Mundane, you bring me back once more. You looked surprised when reading of my travels, but there is no need. I simply seek amusement. Boredom can strike even I at the best of times you need to understand that. If I help another.. It is not because I care do not get me wrong.

It is all in the name of entertainment.

allamericanhero

I'm not surprised you want to pick up the Dukester. Who wouldn't? Now I know what you're wondering, it's what the world's wondering: What does Duke Nukem have in mind for the future? How could he top his previous feats? Well that's all gonna be up to the drawing of the cards. I can tell you that no alien scumbag is gonna steal Earth's chicks, or some freak with a bad attitude is gonna live very long crossing my path. I've seen a lotta people around this joint bitching to their muns about their living space. Maybe if they learned how to toughen up, took their pills-- er, vitamins, maybe they'd be as awesome as me.

shilowallace

I do like the red wedding dress, even if mine is a little short, but I think what I'd like better than you dressing me up like Lydia (or anyone else) is letting me hang out with her (or anyone else).

...I don't know what the secret is, either. If my dad is supposed to be Victor Frankenstein, though, maybe we could just...I don't know, have him make me some company?

potatomasher

Ah, danke. I see you spend your day in a mostly restful way. The official celebrations were peaceful as well and the people seemed to enjoy themselves. Now everyone can return home to be rested enough to return to work tomorrow in old vigor. A successful holiday.

Hn? What is that frown for?
...no. No, I don't think we need any big and more flashy celebrations. Wasting any more money on such a thing when we should be saving up what we can would also be a bad example for the rest of Europe. Now enough of that. Just enjoy what is left of the day, mundane.

julian_bashir

Major Kira? In a queue to join Jadzia, Garak and I on the island? My suspicions that they are kidnapping us one-by-one must be accurate, then. But for what purpose?

Now I have to figure out how to keep an eye on the Major and Garak at the same time. Both of them are highly likely not to look after their collars. A doctor's work is never done.

neverwrongagent

Boss lady, I know you are ready to be back in the thick of things. I get that. I mean, who do you think you are talking to? This is me, the one who got kicked out of everything. But I'm only barely back, you don't know enough of the story yet to do anything.

And no, you aren't allowed to do THAT! That's what's got me in this trouble in the first place.

charge_sword

My patience is without limit regarding events that should not come to pass. Follow my example and kill your fantasies, lest it bring about disaster. I've not interest in suffering more, for any goal you may muster.

seesbosscrotch

Yes, you should definitely start gathering support for Klaxxi as the new playable race! I don't care if they're Horde or start neutral, just so long as they can join us at some point!

No, they're not too inhuman. We let the Forsaken in, didn't we? Compared to them, the Klaxxi are downright friendly.

nom_your_head

Dear "mun,"

I'm fairly certain you are in this for all the wrong reasons. Let's look at the facts:

1) I am more than just a dinosaur.
2) As such, I do a lot more than transform and bite people.
3) And thus do not appreciate the implications you are putting forth. Nor that "song" -- If it can even be called that-- you used for icon keywords.
4) I am no longer a marine.
5) So stop trying to figure out my sense of "justice," as that is not what my decision to leave was about.
6) You don't even know why I left.
7) Nor do you fully know the situation with Kaidou yet.

Kindly cease and desist before I eat one of your other characters to make you shut up.

- Curtly yours,
X Drake

kagetora

Hey Asshole!

Yes, I do mean you.

I don't have time for this kind of garbage. It doesn't matter if I'm someplace new. I'll figure it out on my own. I don't need you following me around, telling me what to do or holding my freaking hand in order to get anything done. Especially not the jerkoff who kidnapped me in the first place.

I survived on my own before, and- New's flash? Nothing's changed.

[ Bristles. ]

And if that wasn't subtle enough to get through your thick head-

Beat it.
Because if you think I need a babysitter, then you really need to get your eyes checked, pal.

abnorman

You're...sending me to a giant turtle?

...Okaaaaay?

I mean, I guess that's like...the least terrible one of the ones you were considering, but... There won't even be ghosts there, really...

lady_of_mirkwood

Lady Mundane, I am flattered that you took the time to select a "PB" for me and make an account.

Though there's little you'll be able to do with me but to post in those "memes". Especially considering the fact that you play my male counterpart elsewhere and are sending him to yet another game.

Really, I was quite happy to continue without an account and return home.

notbloodylikely

...Well shit, you're gonna actually play me somewhere.

Me. That means no more timeless limbo, which means I can look forward to a short lasting hairstyle and a long lasting problem.

At least find me some place with no school. Or no cops. That'd be pretty sweet.

bringmehome

No. Really -- uh -- you don't need to address me as 'Your Highness'. That's...well, it's me, but you and I are on a non-formal basis here, so there's no need for royalties, okay? Ah, aaaand that Mrs. Dimitri teasing needs to stop. There is no Mrs. ...and stop putting it in my head. That includes 'not yet'. Can't I just enjoy getting to better know my charming kitchen boy?

I do remember... I can't believe how... He's handsome. Dimitri is handsome. We all get this, right?

omits

Ooo. Now this — this, my dull serf — I can get a measure of support behind. Your favour is rightly placed, few and remote though other challengers may admittedly be. We will make something great of this alliance, you and I. ~~Mostly on my part, of course.~~ Tell me, which world would you like to witness bowing and scraping? Midgard pales in comparison to these new jaunts laid at my feet.

You will find I can be a benevolent master, when appeased. Carry on.

longsleep

I'm afraid it would have been quite impossible for me to live on Ephinia, however nice you might find the idea. Ephinia was marked for destruction the moment it was chosen to contain Lambda.

My goal from the very beginning was to see the revival of Fodra with my own eyes, however impossible you believe it might have been. To ask me to abandon that goal is no different than if I were to tell you to abandon your home planet in favor of living on your moon.

I see that you understand now. Good. It will be much easier for both of us once you push that silly idea out of your head. Now, where will you be sending me? I will for you as long as is necessary, however I suggest that you come to a decision soon.

You know, Mun, I hate you. This whole... thing you have planned for Halloween, with the things that shall not be named, I'm not a fan.

I will find a way out of this game and make you pay, I'm a Trickster, I can do that.

...and would it be too much for you to find me a Leo, please. Or Zeke, or Griffin. Hell, I'll take the puck or the peri even. Just some back-up would be nice. Don't get me wrong, the Captain is sexy as hell and great in bed, but he's not up to this.

No one is.

I get that everything has its time and place, but you're playing more games than I do and that's saying something.

Fix this.

No, seriously, I'm supposed to be the star of this show. This 'pawn of a pawn' bullshit won't last. Two days from now you'll have changed your mind. Nope, stop writing. You're just going to have to delete it all.
