...Shouldn't you be doing something right now other than just wanting to play everyone in your head? I'm sure someone like you would know better than to just pile more on your plate.

stupid_ass_decision

Well it's taken you long enough ain't it?

But do you seriously think this will keep up? I don't want no more guys prancing around wanting to be a king or anything like it.

And can any of the damn avengers attend a single meeting on time!

nicodemus

It would seem that we are at an impasse. You seem to have this notion, this idea, that I would go along willingly with any sort of plans you thus have for me. [ A dark, smooth, amused laugh. ]

And what, pray tell, would I have to gain from such an offer, my dear girl? Nothing that I cannot obtain myself in some fashion, correct? And you would gain amusement for you own benefit, no doubt. I sincerely doubt it is in your best interests to play this little game with me. There are certain things, certain fires, one should not touch. You would do well to heed that. Or perhaps you would learn better by example. That is one of the finer methods of teaching, after all.

[ And Nicodemus sure would love to teach that lecture, no doubt. ]

meng_huan_myuu

Yeah, the fact that me and my clone are so game-breakingly overpowered is exactly the reason that 90% of all legendaries ever are Psychic-types.

And Lugia's responsible for the other 10% being Dragon types. Well, except for the 5% that is the Latis, those were kinda a joint project.

...u mad, bro?

onetrackminds

So, you want to play. Sure, fine, I could be up for that. First, though, and don't take this the wrong way, but I really do need to know: What exactly are you planning?

I could refuse to cooperate. I'm very good at that.

tailormade

Do you remember how many times you've backed out of sending me anywhere, Mun?

I do. Four.

ultimatus

...There's little point in revisiting the past.

liquidouroboros

Must we do this again? I haven't the time to play along with your childish little games. Least of all when they end in failure, as our last expedition seems to have spiraled into.

I know you realize I have better things to do than while away the hours in some hellish tower. Then again, I also know you could hardly care less. This is an exercise of Sisyphean proportions, but if you think I will quietly accept such madness you should know better.

Philanthropy has work to do, I have work to do, and Otacon will never let me hear the end of it if I simply vanish now-

-...what do you mean, 'you won't need to worry about that'?

( spoilers ahoy )

bonepicker

What is it you're called again? "Mun?"

Well, Mun, you've got me. Now what're you planning to do with me? I got enough problems of my own, I don't need you dragging me into this headspace of yours. Y'see, me and the Impaled Woman? We got things to do. Ghosts to help move on, money to make, you know. So don't get in my way and I won't get in yours, okay?

Glad we talked.

goalposts

You should know my preferences well enough by now to realize that if you're planning to send me anywhere it better come with a pitch as part of the package.

[Oliver, really.]

No, no, I've said my bit. If I'm going to be stuck in these places the least you can do is make sure I've got a place to keep in good form. Some of us have careers that require more than sitting at a desk all day, you know.

[...

>:(. Oliver.]

What? I'm only saying there are better things--more important things-- to do with my time than sitting around your head while you look at funny pictures of cats.

yumizuka

Why doesn't anyone reply to me when I tag them, mun?

[ Um. ] I don't mean to be rude, but I also saw that request on my application. Don't you think it's taking it a little far to have the admins fail to notice me too?

You're going to at least link this post to your friends for me, right?

Right? [ Silence. ] Mun? I know you're still there.

freakinblur

YOU.

ARE.

A.

FREAKIN'.

JACKASS!

I been in Mayfield for two and a half damn years straight! Two years! And I don't even get a break? A vacation?! Can't I even get a week on a beach or somethin'?!

I just-- I really oughta-- DAMNIT. This ain't fair!

tiriel

I saw that this day would come, though I had little idea at the time what it might lead to. And now that I see it, well...

[ Frankly, he's amused. ]

Now. I will not advise you this way or that, but rather - trust that you will prepare yourself sufficiently in the time you have left. Your expectations are not so high; but if you work hard - who knows what rewards you might enjoy in the future.

avoidingwork

It's about time you did it, mun. I was getting sick of just sitting around and doing nothing. So what's the reason, anyway? I became too cool for your brain to handle? Was afraid that I would become a god if you didn't devote your entire time to watching me? Didn't know how to make this "CR" thing with me since I'm instantly bros with everyone I meet?

... What do you mean you were afraid I was gonna break? What does that even mean?!

crashingthemode

Okay, mun-man. It's totally crash that you put me on the back burner because of that hiatus thing. I knew you'd come back to me eventually, and I'm just as excited as you are to see what happens the rest of the season. We're so going to crash the mode.

Also, I agree with you that Blue Beetle is awesome! I'm sure he and I are going to become the best of friends. I mean, he's already sharing his food with me.

Finally, do you really think it's a good idea for me to be taking girl advice from... Kid Flash in that meme? He's definitely my go-to guy when it comes to food, but I think it should end there.

foxtwin

From what little I have observed - what little you've given me time to observe - this place seems to cater to those in those 'games' you have spoken of.

And yet, you have said you've no desire to 'play' me in one.

I have to wonder then, why I am here. I have an estate and lands to manage, and well as social obligations far beyond your limited sphere. Make yourself useful and map out my lands or house if you must be involved with me.

prototype_blues

Stop that.

It's no one's fault that the rest of my history isn't out until after the applications close and you need to have some patience.

... and stop listening to that music, it's giving you ideas.

Current Music: I'm not the Breakman - The Megas

sitwell

I'll be brief, and you'll understand, because that's what you do, correct?

You're not putting me into a game, no matter how much you want to. You have enough on your plate, and I'm too busy doing my job.

Good. I'll see you at the debrief.

waterfell

He was speaking seriously. That boy would rather die than live like this.

And yet, even with his form already changed, he'd try to protect someone. His fate might not change, but somehow, I don't want to see him give up.

sogyo_no_kotowari

You must be joking... Really? An island like that? A person like me?

I understand that there's a cast forming, and yes, I do enjoy the company of my friends and colleagues, but while they may be able to handle the setting, my ability to adapt to something that threatens my vascular health is a bit of a questionable aspect, don't you think?

Retsu, no doubt, will be as unhappy with this as I am. I don't need to create more worry for that woman than I do already. But...

But, if you insist, fine. I'll try to have a good attitude about it.

the_hacker

Awesome. I feel like I've been trapped in a dusty closet for months, and you're finally getting me out and about?

Aw, it's about my hair? A little bummed, yeah, but I'll take the fresh air any day.

I owed you one, mun, but now we're square. Let's get this show back on the road.

oftheangels

"Take me out for a spin"? Is that really fair, to you or to me? Let's leave me aside, even; it's not fair at all to take me away from my people. What kind of leader leaves his subjects so high and dry?

It's irresponsible, I tell you. So as much as I would love to indulge your little games — and believe me, I would, I love fun things as much as the next guy — irresponsibility for someone like me is just inexcusable. You'd be better off selecting someone else. After all, if nothing else, it would be much easier on you and me both.

fotlenke

What.

It is only defensive driving.

Simple enough. Easy enough.

Why do you continue to say that there shall be body counts at the end of each of my lessons?

I have driven carts in the past, Dear Mundane. I did not crash as often as you think.

Besides, I will be sure to have Gakupo tutor me. There. You see. Nothing to cause worry or raise alarm.

culver

Do not worry so much. If he comes he will come. No use in being stressed.

always_lies

Oh yes, good job there. You can barely even write the app, what makes you think you can play me as brilliantly and perfectly as I deserve to be?

And this Tower... sounds really lame. Monsters? Psychological trauma? Please. Just get me Mai and Ty Lee and we'll be running the place in a day.

ruffntumblenut

I don't care what you say mun. If you've never gone OX tipping you can't tell me it's not fun.

Just imagine it! They're so big but so dumb! And coming from me that's saying something. You just push and it's like BOOM! And they just stare up at you.

There's just something that feels so...good about reminding dumber creatures who's the boss.

...well I guess on Berk that's Stoic but you get the idea.

Hey! What's a girl gotta do to get her dragon back? I could take Mindy for rides! It'd be great.

tookmyipod

Look, mun. The next time you want to drag me out, can it not be because of Loki? That was an experience I really don't want to repeat for, oh, ever. He's got all of Thor's charm and none of the "knight in shining armor" vibe. It's really freaky.

bigusdickus

DAAAAAAAA!!

What the hell kind of a username is this?! It's bad enough you're trying to get me killed, again, but why would you go and let everyone know about something like that?!

fearmymartini

Really?

At least I will know that my son has good taste.

This may scare the bejeebers out of the poor boy, but I know this: I expect grandchildren from this one.

endless_clouds_of_violet

This late in the year? Oh my, but it's starting to get so cold, and I was just getting ready to bed down for the winter. You humans are all very strange, wanting to start projects just before the snow.

I hope for your sake you find the place interesting. Don't think I don't know you haven't even really looked over the premise or rules of it yet. All you know is a basic outline of what may or may not go on over there and that many of your friends are there, as well. Even the ones you haven't seen as such in a long while.

Can I talk you into just letting me hibernate, instead, mundane?

dextrophobia

Excuse me, miss, but do you really think you can play me with only half a story? You even have trouble remembering what you do know. I understand. It's been a while, after all.

[Sickly. Sweet. Smile.]

I just think you should dig a little deeper, miss. I wouldn't want you to be wrong, especially after your friend was so nice and said you'd do great.

...And no matter what that 'preview' button says, I don't believe I'm a dragon.

amajorchord

So you're asking yourself: "What the fuck am I doing?" Which is the multimillion dollar question here. But whatever it is, the answer is no.

Honestly, you should have something better to do with your time than Photoshop a third eye onto a man who looks nothing like me for an event that's a month away.

[It sounds bad when you say it like that. Besides, it's your fault for having three eyes in the first place.]

Hey. Don't hate me because I have dubious properties attributed to myself.

stirs_the_leaves

ooc: AU Sasuke; never left Konoha. ANBU, jounin, loyalist. Finally found a game for him... Here to stretch my writing voice with anyone who'll bite! ♥

[Sigh.]

You're really doing this, mun?

Tower of Animus. Because I really needed more animosity in my life.

It's nice to be out and talking again, don't get me wrong... but that couldn't have happened at home instead of in a torture game?

...Yes, horror game. Same thing from where I'm standing.

brujah_barkeep

Okay, forgetting what a righteous pain in the ass you've been about not sending me somewhere, for a minute, I gotta say, you may actually be right about something.

I know. Miracles happen, huh?

But yeah. Don't think this journal name is really doing it for me. I mean, my bar's gone. It was sucked down to hell with my good boots and my shot glass collection and that Red Hot Chili Peppers CD. Don't think you can really define me as a "bartender" any more, ya know?

So let's think this one over, kay? Maybe a better journal name is the kick in the ass you need to actually send me somewhere.

materialgirl

Tch, yeah, right. Stop trying to poke around for a Mandy, 'cause it is so not happening.

I mean, as if. Why would anyone want to step into her tacky bargain-bin stilettos?

How about finding me an Alex instead?

chromia

.... Mun.... Stop refreshing your e-mail every five minuets and go to bed.
You were up for most of the night and didn't sleep all day either... Close the web browser, exit the word processing program and shut down the computer. Give it a rest... go read a book... watch tv... something... anything...

..............................

I would have better luck convincing Megatron to put on a tutu and dance to the Backstreet Boys on a stripper pole... wouldn't I?

Current Mood: ...

standinginfrontofyou

Mun. You no longer need to worry about any of those other muses of yours. Why would you, when you now have me? Dropping everything else in order to make more icons would be a completely understandable course of action. You probably want to get on that right away. There clearly aren't enough here.

And do not worry about the journal name. The name doesn't matter. What matters is...me.

betterinthedark

Bala'dash, malanore, mundane.

As I'm sure you may have guessed, I will not take lightly to being in Alliance territory. Just how do you expect me to work with them to "get our homes back"? I'd much rather die with honor than be expected to work with the likes of them.

Perhaps you'd be better off sending me somewhere that won't have just one person from Azeroth there. I don't expect to work well with the likes of them.

However, have a good day and remember the Sunwell.

thiscloakisgreen

Confounded mun.

You can hardly be called "worthy" of being within ten feet of my countenance without being shooed from my sight like a bilge rat.

The times before were perhaps quite enjoyable indeed. ***, which you most frequented, was most...indulging, to say the least. I met many a character there. There was I believe one time I was made to bow and it was before the fairest of maidens, who's very visage would have brought any lesser man to tears. And was she thinking the same of Doom? Of course she was. A young lady who had just become of age to wed as I remember it.

But times change. And those who refuse to change with them are destined for failure. And because my mun refuses to change, so shall my own appearances diminish hence then. Your former home of *** is now riddled with nonsense and constant shipping. The posts now shadows of their former selves. I shan't divulge anymore such reminiscence, seeing as how I may upset my memory apart from yours.

So I issue to you an order as your future king, mun, and I will make myself perfectly clear: search beyond your so-found home waters so that I may spread my influence beyond this repugnant and now entirely stale memesite! There are more places for your so-called "RPs".

On top of that, I also require that you retrieve different pictures of yours truly other than the "animesque" ones. I am sure you prefer the style over most other forms. My various armors may differ in appearance but they are all mine and therefore are incredibly powerful.

crowsecutor

[Well now, there's a girl - or rather, young woman - with long black hair in a bun with a familiar golden key hairpin stuck through it, a dark blue scarf and skirt, a pink blazer and black boots. She's leaning against some wall in this strange place, her arms crossed, grinning from ear to ear.

She fiddles with a prosecutor's badge pinned prominently to her scarf.]

You can't get rid of me that easily, Mun! I'll always keep coming back.

...

Actually, I never really left in the first place. But you get the idea.

[A shrug.]

trapdoorseverywhere

...you barely even know me, and yet you want to send me to a whole big gaming community?

You are a strange young woman, indeed!

sponsorigami

Please stop looking for logs to put me in to. I really don't want to meet more dinosaurs... And please stop listening to my dub line over and over. I mean, it's just one line, and it's not enough to start changing how I speak as Origami, and I know you always planned to match the dub on that but...

But more importantly, that can't be him! It just can't! You and I both know that has to be some kind of trick or NEXT power or something! I have to do something! When does the next chapter come out?

guideyoursteps

Yes, I am quite sure that I'm not a Daedric prince. Does it really seem the kind of thing that would have slipped my notice? Mad gods say mad things, you would do well to pay them as much mind as they make sense.

[She says, making little mention of how completely forgetting about the Isles and being the madgod would be entirely in line with anyone's expectations of Sheogorath. The mun isn't saying for sure whether any of it actually happened for her.]

...I do wish the fate of the Blades was as untrue. Of the Empire. Of all of Tamriel, even. It's all certainly just as difficult to believe.

thetruthismine

Give me something to do.

likely2bteamkilled

Hey, here's an idea! Let's not make up a game or do any sort of speculating on whether or not that sword of dark energon is going to make things worse or not for all of us that have to live on the Nemesis. Because you'll likely jinx it with such talks.

I still have nightmares from the last few times that stuff was used in large quantities and having the ship turn and attack all of us was horrible as well.

endbringer

( HAKUMEN WHY )

punches_boulders

So... a ship set adrift in an endless ocean with all manner of monsters lurking in the halls?

...Serious case of Deja-Vu, mun. I really don't like it. But, Claire and Jill are there, so I really should be too. Can't let them have all the fun, right?

fiftyfirsthates

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING?
OH YEAH, THAT'S REALLY REASSURING.
IN FACT, I FEEL HONORED TO BE PLAYED BY YOU. IT'S REALLY GREAT, REAL FUCKING GREAT.
HERE, LET ME GIVE YOU A CERTIFICATE TO PROVE IT.
"I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE HERE TO BUTCHER MY CHARACTER AND TORTURE ME FOR YOUR AMUSEMENT.
FUCK YOU."
SIGNED,
"KARKAT VANTAS"

LOOK, I KNOW YOU'RE USED TO ORDERING AROUND THAT SWEATY HORSE-BULGE LOVING IDIOT, SO LET'S GET SOMETHING STRAIGHT RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING.
I DO NOT TAKE ORDERS. I GIVE THEM. OR AT LEAST I USED TO.
FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES, LET'S JUST SAY THAT I AM DEFINITELY THE ONLY ONE GIVING ORDERS AROUND HERE.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT? WAIT, LET ME HERE IT STRAIGHT FROM YOUR CHUTE: "I WILL NOT GIVE KARKAT ORDERS."

[Sing "I'm a Little Teapot"!]

ALRIGHT, OBVIOUSLY YOU DIDN'T GET IT THROUGH YOUR THINKPAN THE FIRST TIME SO I'M JUST GOING TO REITERATE THAT I'M A LITTLE TEAPOT SHORT AND STOUT
OH FUCK.

I HATE YOU SO MUCH ALREADY.

novokov_cocktail

She's mine.

In time, it will be the same as it was with him. She will love me, just the same.

kissedgoldfrog

Hey, you had to do it. It wasn't fun for either one of us and sitting there won't help. I know it's hard leaving people you care about but it's for the best.

Maybe you'll find a place where I can do better, don't give up mun.

lastmanstanding

At least you made a decision. And at least now you have a direction. We have a direction.

...Kid I know what you're thinking. I know how unhappy you are about it, and about it but wasn't the whole lesson from today just that you can't force anyone to do anything they don't want to do?

I mean, that's the point you know? I should be working for Seth. And you're behaving like shit might not happen and you know, it might..

[Hoffman. Let's just be honest here.]

...Hey, I was trying to placate you. I know how you're feeling.

Amanda and I have done some pretty bad things kid. You know how she's ending. I know what you want for me and I think you know that someday it might happen...but I think just focusing on it the way you have been...

[There is a haunted look in his gaze. He looks genuinely upset.] ...Well. If I can save Seth from...feeling as shitty as I did and going through what I went through... That's the right thing to do.

But we both knew I wasn't a philanthropist like Amanda was. ...She really did do good. I'm..I'm a cop. Not a social worker. We're selfish by nature.

I think we have issues.
