Mundane, perhaps this could have used more thinking out?

[A tad ironic]

Perhaps, but I'm not quite as rash as I used to be. All I am trying to say is that it might have been wise to look at games such before you took me up. It is no offense.

[Point taken. Don't worry about it]

dork_of_keys

Hey Mun?

How many Nightmares are supposed to have me cornered? The game hasn't been open all that long and you're already putting me in trouble... without a good reason. CR is not a good reason. Helping someone is a good reason. Finding out what that Anonymous guy is up to is also a good reason. But not just random CR. Come on, Mun. Really? Couldn't it just have been a normal run through town to clear out Nightmares? Or hanging around the tea shop? Do you really need for me to be in a situation where I'm pretty much guaranteed to get hurt?

...

You're right. I wouldn't be complaining if I was helping someone. Shouldn't that be a hint?

And being snippy and sarcastic doesn't mean I'm channeling Roxas! Speaking of which, don't you have some tags to answer with him?

-Sora

PS - And don't look at me about that other thing. It isn't my fault you got too used to playing somewhere that no one minded that. Besides which, you do know a writing trick that would help there.

PPS - I'm not channeling Roxas. If I was, I'd probably be in a better mood. He's too amused at teasing the other me in that other game.

( Jade Courier within; you know the drill. Spoiler-safe, though. )

((I'll default to responding with font, but those who prefer ordinary tags need only ask.))

Current Mood: thoughtful

markhoffman

New chances, new opportunities. No more fucking baggage. Come on kid, let the past go and be past. I'm in a new fucking game and I have John's work. What else do I need?

[relationships. friendship. emotions.]

[There's a slight flicker of annoyance] How well did that work out the last time? I'm a mean ass junkyard dog, you don't pet those. You let them do their shit and do their fucking thing stop trying to put a square peg in a round fucking hole already!

If I can't have her back I should take my revenge on that boat don't you think? Don't you think you could find a reason for me to do that? You say it's bothering you well how about letting me do something about it? Let me out of there to fucking do something!

Nothing fluffy, nothing fucking fancy, nothing with [Feelings. He doesn't say that but the word is there and there's contempt and also anger, it's the only emotion he really gets anymore.] any of that shit. You're doing this that's fine. Then you do what's fair. You've denied me justice and the opportunity to do real justice.

Give it back.

rockthisworld

Well, noodlebrains, at least you got taste, I'll give you that.

Of course, you should really be watching the show again now. Seriously, capturing my particular brand of awesome is going to take some work, okay? So you better step up to the plate and bring it, hear me? Let's do this!

That crayon-munching featherbutt better watch out, 'cause I'm going to take over this headspace of yours now.

saintofstoic

I don't mind the idea of returning, no. Despite the... unique rules of living there, I did have an interesting time.

Those I remember are no longer there though, are they? Certainly not anyone from St. Kleio but Monsieur Coulmier.

And no, I won't consider the other.

whatseparates

I think you may have waited a little too long.

I don't think I really want to go anyway. Let's just...go along with what we're doing now, okay? It's really nice, and it's easy to keep up with. And the conditioning is broken there, and I'd kind of like to keep it that way.

Maybe you're a fan of my father's, but I'm not.

motivated

I can only see this ending badly.

There's enough of them running around to keep me busy. At least find me somewhere to be active. I don't do well just sitting around. Especially not these days.

the_lady_and_the_unicorn

I've accepted this body. [She wraps her arms around herself.] I won't remain this way forever. I can't. I wouldn't be able to stand it.

[Closing her eyes, she rests a hand against the wall.]

Please... Let me return to them, Mun? I need to finish what I started. I'm so far from home...

And so close to facing him. The others...they need me. The world needs us.

Please.

remembersthetrees

Thinking of sending me somewhere, dear? I suppose these old bones can handle one more adventure.

pluckyreporter

You must be feeling out of sorts to dust me off, especially so late. I thought you were having a good time elsewhere. Your collection of scientists is getting pretty impressive -- what's a little reporter to do in the face of all those big brains you keep around?

[ She gives the smallest of wry smiles. ]

But if you really need a fix, you know I'm here. And you know I'm always up to go poke my nose into places it probably doesn't need to be. It doesn't matter if the boys are there or not - you know from experience I can be on my own without too much trouble...

Well, most of the time.

In the meantime... I know college is busy, but I'd really love if you'd finish the next chapter of that fic you're working on. You know, the one I'm actually alive in? That'd be pretty nice. Good practice to keep the voice, you know. Just in case. Maybe you can find some time tomorrow, if you're not too busy reading The Great Gatsby outloud and mocking it mercilessly.

Just keep it in mind.

[The Shape has returned to Dear_Mun for his favorite time of year. He stands and breathes and waits. Laurie. Where is Laurie?]

whatisreality

Your cat is right - it's time for bed. Go. Now. Oh, you just had to stay up and renew my paid account. Well, that's a perfectly reasonable thing to do. Right. Also, stop listening to music that you know is going to get you wired. And don't think about making videos of me to any of these pieces of music. I would rather not be associated, in your mind, with RoboCop or Batman.

( music his mun is listening to that is aggravating him )

selfslushie

If I may, mun? You have me in a game already. Okay, it's me three years into the future, but it's still me. Do you really need to think about another one?

alwaysataclimax

( Cut for spoilers. )

underthehoodie

The timing is shit, munnie, and you know it. Four eyes is holding even more in, Mephisto is starting to show his hand, Baldy is being an extra pain and you want to make me deal with all of that plus returning to that dream world?

Just wait a week or two to see what happens before you do anything. stupid Tch, there's still that game of Puck's we need to play so I'm needed there for now. I trade one tricky bastard for another. I'm sick of their games.

definingfuture

Yes, I know, I know. You're wonderful. Fantastic. Amazing. It's always nice to know that I won't die within my first two weeks just because I couldn't get a date. You have officially mastered the art of being Tony Stark. Write a book.

Now can we please talk about something here? I know what you're thinking, and stop right there. Futurist, remember? I'm a forward thinker. It might be fun for you, but I remember things a little differently. I'd rather not dwell on the past longer than I have to.

imperial_pride

Listen Mun, if you're going to play me the least you could do is more canon reviewing. Stop saying it's too many 'feels' for you. You started this so now you have to see it through!

shinjaeba

So, let me get this straight. I'm going to be have to go to a place where the only people I would know are: Battler, those two [grannies] witches from the Senate, and the beloved child who wants me dead and gone.

Sure. I'm so excited to go.

Not really. Sounds pretty lame, if you ask me, but I guess it might be fun. Not because you said so, okay? But because someone has to keep an eye on those kids, right? After all... You can't expect busy people to properly take care of sensitive people, right.

Awesome, glad we got that taken care of - oh, hold on. What's this, you say? Ehehe, sure. I'm sure I'll get along great with that new girlfriend that my beloved nephew has gotten.

Ehehehe... This sounds awesome! Later.

pompous_today

Get it together, mun.

I know it's hard without the rest of the crew being here... River especially... but I'm still perfectly capable of functioning without her no matter how much I dislike being separated from her. I need to find a new purpose, and I can't do that unless you get your head back into things and actually do them with me.

I'm getting tired of waiting.

abovetheprogram

Come on mun, if you miss me that much I'm sure we can find someplace to go do things. Or you can send me back to where I was last time.

[Seriously the way you keep thinking about it... the solution isn't that complicated!]

I know, you say you're really busy. But you say you keep finding all those slow games, so one of them's gotta work!

[And thus mun facepalms because it's not that simple since she already has KH muses at some of those "slower games".]

hammer

You're kidding, right? This is a joke? Because it sounds like one. A bad one.

You remember that other me, don't you? The old British guy? Kind of crazy, ended up going out of the airlock? Yeah. That guy. You know who I'm not? Him.

So putting me in space? Not funny. It's not funny at all. You need to think about what you're doing, realize you're making a huge mistake, and then go away. I'm way too busy to be doing this.

I mean it. I'm not going.

maracahero

Madame Mun, I don't think you're taking me very seriously at all. I'm Phantom Thief R! Not some maraca hero.

Although, I do not mind so much so long as you are having fun. I know you're trying to find somewhere to send me, but it's really okay! So long as you don't plan on keeping me locked up in headspace with nothing to do all day.

And come on, can't I at least have Fondue?

fromyourshadow

Again, your mind wanders to me.

What has sparked your interest this time, woman? Is it your fascination for that hollow? Spare me. I have more important things to do.

...I need to find him. This isn't right.

flowerofsendai

I'm so glad you're enjoying yourself, Mun-san! And while I hate to take time away from some of the other people here, I'm looking forward to working with you in the future. Just don't forget to focus on your studies as well. A well-tempered blade needs constant maintenance and, as you've said, this is a busy time for you. We would all understand if you need to take a break every once in a while.

Oh, and don't worry so much about finding everyone else. Ogami-san will be there, and it looks like Kanna-chan may also be joining us as well! I wouldn't want to trouble anyone else. Still, it would be nice to see the others as well.

[[Canon is Sakura Wars.]]

thisismyforest

But I don't want to go anywhere. I have my forest to look after, you know that! And you keep saying you're too busy right now, anyway.

[She huffs.] Fine. But it had better not be anywhere like that Mayfield place. [Even if she misses the people she met there.] If you don't choose a good place, I'll set the wolves on you, don't think I won't.

beforethedarkness

It's not funny. Find a way to get the stupid thing off of me now or you won't live to regret it!

[Apparently Sasuke doesn't like being possessed by teenage girls.]

seethelanterns

So, you liked it so far and are excited to see all these fairy tales. It is kind of neat. And you think I might show up in it eventually? Well, not me me, but. A Rapunzel. It could be interesting to see what they do with that. I guess you'll have to wait though, only being able to watch it at your parents.

futureprofessor

Miss Muuuun! Come on, don't look at me like that! You know I would never do such a thing to poor Nate. I can't stand against the game AI, now can I? Besides, weren't you just squealing about happy you are about having me as tag partner? Ah, thank you for that.

...by the way, I think you should already get out of Reversal Mountain. I'm very flattered that you like chatting and battling by my side, really! But the high temperatures of the magma could have some bad effects on your team's health if you stay inside for too long. Especially your Leafon, he's a Grass-type and he can't-

[Isn't she cute when she gets all nerdy?]

Aaaah, Miss Mun! Don't say those things!

wellbangokay

[And until now, he had no idea that his dance(s) had a name.]

I don't think you're as bad of a dancer as you think you are.

[He folds his arms.] But you're at work right now so I suggest you to get off the computer.

[Because shaving ice is a war asset.]

musophobic

I don't understand, mundane. Why are you so concerned? Many may not have enjoyed the... forgive me, but you call it a 'film', yes? Anyway, many may not have enjoyed it, but if you did, then that is all that matters. Do not worry yourself over something so trivial, my lady. You have far better things to fill your time with.

For example, you could be telling me more about these moving pictures you stare at all the time - and the device you use as some kind of portable symphony. I'd ver much like to learn more, lady mundane.

costing

This is a waste of both of our time, and I'm going to explain to you why with two simple facts. I'll even speak slowly, for you benefit.

One: you have absolutely no idea why you've brought me here in the first place.

Two: by your own admission, you have no time to do these things which you haven't decided on doing yet.

See? This entire exercise is pointless. And now you know why. And that was another... sixteen seconds we've wasted.

quickly

Yo Mun!

Hey, so if uh if y'die, does that mean I'll get a different mun? Someone less lazy? [Snicker.] Naw, I'm just fuckin' with ya. I think you ain't gonna die. Lose power or somethin, maybe, I dunno. Do I look like a meeteeohrologist? Ask Doc, he'll tell ya if you'll die.

Wait, no no, don't. He'll just say you'll die even if he doesn't know.

So 'bout that Haven place. Yer makin' me die? After the event's over too, wow. Y'know what? I'm givin' you an award. For the slowest, lamest mun ever. [And he snickers again.]

Kiddin'! Don't be so serious.

freakymayor

Okay, so I want to advance my political career and get votes from the people around here in order to make me mayor of this place or get me into a game, so I ask you for help.

So now what's this you keep telling me about making promises to "save Big Bird" or something? How will that boost my popularity and help my campaign? How do I know these promises won't be empty? And who even is this Big Bird? Is that a monster? A freak of nature that I have to "save" and bring to Crystal Cove? If so, then I ought to do that before Halloween rolls around in just three days! That's the single best day for boosting tourism of my town! Of course, that can only happen if you let me go BACK to Crystal Cove at all!

Honestly, if I don't get anywhere with this, this whole thing is going to drive me completely crackers!

sandwormie

You know, I don't know if I'd be saying 'prime' whenever something's good. Okay, I wouldn't say 'wizard', 'cause that's what the previous generation on Tatooine said, and I can't say 'astral' 'cause that's the next one, but I think 'prime' is just something Alderaanian kids say. And not even all of them.

Should I even know that word? The only people you've ever seen using it are six, seven years younger 'n me and that's when I'm nineteen. Maybe it's not even slang yet.

Maybe I just don't use a random positive word in weird ways like you do. I mean, when have I? Closest I come's saying 'great', right?

dr_awesome

... I should have known.

You watch this PewDiePie play through my game (which, by the way, is extremely weird. Since when would my job make an interesting game) and suddenly I have a lame journal and I'm expected to talk to people about who I am? The business is extremely secretive!

...And yes, I guess what I do is pretty awesome and filled with dramatic plot twists and heroic escapades, but I'll get fired!

And I'm not getting fired after Eva worked so hard getting me in! Don't you dare tell her I'm thankful for that...

too_old_for_this

Oh no you don't. Read my lips. Read my username! You just gave it to me, didn't you? I was planning on some quality time in Tahiti with a fancy cocktail and a nice, relaxing novel.

On the beach.

In the sun.

Have you ever thought about what the middle of a disaster zone is like in winter? Ever had frostbite? I have. Let me tell you, growing parts back hurts twice as much. -- Don't even go for the nose joke. I saw that look.

No, I think I'm going to have to veto this one. So sorry! Already bought the tickets.

Don't push me on this.

You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

aintjustwhistlin

Told you this was a bad idea, Mun. You go and whip me up my own journal (which I appreciate, I do) and then get busy and don't have time to reply to anyone who's tagged me.

Which is exactly what I said would happen, after I said that nobody would tag me in the first place, so I guess you were right on that one. We'll call it a draw.

vicequeen

Spin it any way you like to yourself, Munny dear.

I surprised you? I tend to have that effect. Shame on you, though, to think my little bird was caught out of his own weakness rather than an act of my strength. When you underestimate someone, dearie, they keep you in the palm of their hand.

Oh, I'm certain you've got plenty of excuses now for why you like me, and why I'm here.

But I suspect you've just got a thing for redheads.

gammas

Sit down.

Not happening.

Don't even waste a thought trying to think about it, buster.

Jeez, if anything, at least wait until my new book drops. I need to show off my fantastic (no pun intended) uniform, got it?

thefinalgirl

Look Mundane, it's sweet of you to make me this journal. but I'm not going to be needing it.

You won't be putting me in a game, or at least you have no plans to right now. And you're only posting here because it's going to be Halloween in a few days from now.

Watch the movie again if you want to. I'd rather you didn't, but I know you're going to ignore me.

force_a_change

Oh well, yes this is a good thing! I'd hate to be dropped or "idled" out of Vatheon. It's a very nice place.

But... I don't agree with what has inspired you this time. Those kinds of thoughts aren't for me, you know. The depressing and sad ones I mean.

deductiongeek

I don't see why you keep comparing the different recent versions of Holmes and wondering which one is the best. It's obvious. The best Holmes will always be the original one from Doyle's novels. [Said with great satisfaction, as if this closed the question.]

Holmes is incredible, isn't he? How could any other version ever compare?

...But you'll still watch all of them, right?

shewolfleah

Are you really that bored of me already? I mean you haven't really done anything with me in the first place. If you're not going to do anything with me here you can at least send me back home to La Push.

I know Jake can't handle it without me and I need to keep an eye on Seth.

No? Why are you so stubborn? Why can't you just listen to me for once? [Sigh] At this point I'll take anything.

earthenking

Ehh.. you've forgotten a lot. Until you finish looking again, can I go sight-see? I could say hi to big brother, since he's not coming home any time soon.

character_box

Really? While I realize the canon version of Commander Margulis is interested in meeting me, I do have responsibilities to attend to. The Federation government is hardly going to keep itself in line with U-TIC's best interests, particularly with Rubedo and that Realian babysitter of his making their own moves.

I'm not interested in having other versions of Albedo inflicted on me, either. The one I have is more than enough, thank you.

...Of course you don't care about any of that. [Long-suffering sigh.]

You should let me leave now.

[No good? He didn't really think so, but he had to try.]

You summon the Queen of the Dead to satisfy a mere passing whim. My, but mortals have grown bold. We shall see how well it suits you.

Ask you how Hel responds to her father's treatment? [ in a detached kind of deadpan: ] I answer - She would have their heads outfitted upon pikes and sent to the Allfather's door, their eyes gouged for trinkets.

My dearest, most darling writer.

I certainly did not jump up and down like a child when you mentioned a friend of yours may bring about Algernon.

You picked a bad time to get a hankering for the Robin suit, you know. Aren't you supposed to be studying? Or at least sleeping? I know you're nervous but you're not doing yourself any favors.

No, I'm not really one to talk, I guess I'm just a little confused. I sorta thought you were sick of me. I'm not going to complain if you're thinking of letting me out more. You know how much I hate being grounded.
