Nov. 27th, 2012

Now there we are! All nice and settled into our new location. Took you long enough.

No wait. _{That's not why we're here, is it?} Oh, that's right! You listen to me, little missy, and you listen good. You can't just go peeking into all of those other worlds, there's no time for that. _{No time for you who live such a linear life. How do you manage?} I don't care if you're left feeling unsatisfied with what you've chosen, you simply cannot take on anymore without letting go of some.

What was that saying? You can't have your cake and eat it too. _{That sounds just ridiculous. Why have cake at all if you can't eat it?} Still even though that makes no sense, you know what I mean. Leaving is hard but everyone does it, not even my Thief can escape that no matter how fast he runs.

So if you're going to look around at all of those other worlds then you simply have to do something first. There's already too much on your plate. _{Oh! That's a much better saying.}

clockworkchild

So you want another adventure then?

I thought you'd forgotten me.

couldnt_kahless

This is a stupid idea. This is what you pick for a hobby? And all the places you're thinking of putting me are terrible, on top of that. A ship with engines off-limits to me, place where they don't have anything more advanced than generators--if you want a combustion engine mechanic, you want Tom, not me.

Besides, you don't know the first thing about engineering, I don't care how alike you think we are in personality.

...You're really not going to be put off of this, are you?

blupelt

Honestly, mun. Please stop your bad habit of staying up past midnight to "cram". It's not good for you! Us Digimon too know the importance of rest. You may not be Yamato, but I'm still allowed to worry...

[ But then, his expression lightens up, just a little. ]

I know you're often [ ~~more like always the mun cries~~ ] scared to bring me out, so consider this an accomplishment for the night as you work on the other things. (Is it because you're excited for the game? You still haven't reviewed, you know... but prioritize school, since I've heard it's important!) Do your best! I'm here for you.

runeskin

No, no, no, no.

You promised to leave me alone for a few months. We're still in the middle of that. ...or the end, maybe, but still. A truce was called, and it's still standing. I don't mind getting an emotional kick in the pants, really, but I don't like those ideas you suddenly have rattling around in your head. Can't you think up some fun adventures? I could be a, you know, dashing hero or something. Slay evil beasts. Visit Yggdrasil. Run with Erling and the wolves.

[I'm leaving you alone next month, kiddo.]

Well, good, but what about after? It's always venom with you, isn't it? And deranged gods. Loki wants to cut down all of my family, and I'm the last on his list. That's going to be fun...

followedthelaw

You know, I really hoped you'd "lose" my "voice." Not rewatch everything so that you could impersonate me better. That's what you're doing, you know. Typing what you think I'd say. Well let me tell you what I really am saying: you'd better lose my voice fast. I've got work to do and a father who will lose his wits if he finds out I'm gone.

grafts

No, no, I get it. I mean, it's really very tempting. I get the same giddy flutter in my stomach when I look in the mirror. It's like, "wow, Dimitri, just look at you, you handsome devil you".

So it's okay, really. Not all of us can lead the life I lead, and boy, do I lead it well. Guess I should give you a slap on the back and welcome you back into the fold, huh? Not that your whole deal is real. It's fictional. Mine is real, so let's not get too cocky, alright?

likestohavefun

You're thinking about this too much. Just kick back, have some fun--you know, what I'm good at. Don't worry, I'll help you with that part.

...and yeah, I'll get you snow for your birthday. Don't I always?

bostrumite

Look, I know you missed me—kinda hard to blame you for that one; I mean, who wouldn't?—but do me a favor. Next time you feel like dragging me out of storage? At least pretend you've got a plan.

chosenbytheplanet

What a misguided, simple-minded tool. But you are not wrong: there is a puppet here.

You.

[A twisted smile pulls back his mouth, nearly baring his teeth.]

Don't delude yourself with the idea that you matter, however. You are nothing but a temporary vessel. When the time comes for me to venture elsewhere, you will obey me, and then you will join the rest of the lifeless filth who thought they could control me.

freeborn_bull

Uh hi umm Mun, quiaff?

I am not sure I am okay with this. It is not that you are not a nice person mun but uh I do actually kind of like my universe.

I know you umm want to have me go on an adventure and that is okay with me but uh there are other parts I am worried about.

sempiternally

Look at you being active tonight. You've been thinking about me more, I can tell. Not that I might've hinted at something earlier when you brought me over. I know you thought about putting me at that one space themed game, maybe you should think about it again. I'm not hinting at anything, but I'm just saying, it'd be pretty cool. Considering my "abilities" and all. Great place for me.

But it's fine staying here too.

Or here's an idea. Why don't you finish that book you were writing, no wait, it was a TV pilot before wasn't it? I don't care which media you choose, just get the story out.

mothercomplex

With all due respect, I do not appreciate this username.

qaunak

A game? But mun, you and I discussed this. I'm too minor a character to get a place anywhere.

But if my family is there, you know I will follow your lead there. I will never abandon them, no matter how complicated things have gotten. We need to be together. Just pick the place carefully. And try not to overload yourself. I can't help but worry - it's part of being a mother.

Current Mood: thoughtful

breau

This again?

I know you're fond of me, but don't you have other things to do?

gandrtails

You're serious about this?

Fine, but at least review before you start blindly writing the app. At least you've managed to chose a route and canon point, so we're getting somewhere.

[ Shut up, Rin. You're lazy too. ]

earthbinded

Flattering. Stop it. It's gone beyond frighteningly creepy now.

yamagishi

I really do miss RPing me don't you, Mun-san?

I certainly do miss my time in Death City and I wouldn't mind trying to befriend new people in a new place. But...maybe you should think about managing your time wisely first? Your break is coming up but your work still needs to be done....

Perhaps it would be best to look for a new game until then? I don't want you to force yourself to keep me around.

maybe_a_count

Dear Mademoiselle Mundane (or whatever inane prattle it is you wish me to address you as these days),

You see, I believe you and I have a bit of a problem. I am restless, so much in fact that I am beginning to believe you are afraid of me. [Because, of course, everything is about you... isn't it Alucard?]

What is it that I ever did to deserve this treatment, of being shoved to the side while you pay attention to your other muses? You must understand, being pent-up in the back of your mind is not a fun place to be.

My request of you is to find me a home, one where I might be allowed to stretch my legs, and take romantic strolls through the woods, unleashing havoc in my wake. I don't ask for much.

Have I excited you yet, dearest Mundane?

thneedy

No. No, no, no. We had a plan, and that was that you were going to ignore wanting to send me somewhere. I don't care how long it's been! I don't want to go and get myself wrapped up in something horrible, and you know they're all horrible places!

Nooo, ma'am. I am staying right here!

abbot_cellach

Is there an important reason for me to have you drag me out here? The Abbey needs protection, they need my leadership. You cannot take me away from that.

trickslol

Spirits forbid that you have to go make your living.

Speaking of which, I think I might be out of the job soon. [He looks at his gun. He's not talking about being Omega's favorite exterminator either.]

Or I probably already am and we don't know it yet.

chalkfriends

It's not so bad, it isn't.
I have so many friends here, after all, I...

You wanted her to stay too, didn't you? But she didn't, she's gone.
I don't think I'll ever see her again, but that's... fine.

This is how I'm meant to be.

fuuuuu

Mun..

I think it's great that you're starting to feel better about my voice, but I can only go there if the samurai who smells of sunflowers is there. I know those idiots can be.. idiots, but I need them there, too. They're all I've got to help me, and I don't think I could do it without them...

[ ... ]

A break from it all is one thing, but who knows when they'd even show up? Any of them, I mean. And no offense, but none of the places you're looking into seem like a vacation.

Just let me go home and finish my journey. Uh-- please?

whatfriendsdo

Yeah, and whose fault is it exactly for getting the book on friday?

Don't give me that bull, you didn't have to pick it up. [Laughing silently at her mun's pain?

Laughing silently at her mun's pain.]

And stop it. If George wants to show up in the game, he will.

akindofwolf

Do you honestly think anyone gives a shit? No? You're right. They don't. [He lights a cigarette]

I'm going to pretend you didn't mention games. The last person who wanted to use me ended up... [He laughs, a harsh, very cruel sound] On ice.

virioncomplex

-=whispering forever=-

Stop freaking out, it's not as bad as you thought.

But if you dare try to throw me somewhere else with out my ship I will find a way to make your life hell. Clear?

ferreum

Personally, I think you're full of shit. You try, you fail, the world spins madly on.

Next?

mr_gold

Well Mun, you wouldn't bring me here if it wasn't for good reason.

You have something I might want deary.. Why don't we discuss it.

omegaria

( SPOILERS FOR OMEGA DLC )

materialboy

My Lady, you do many strange things with little reason. Therefore, I reason you are a human. But, I cannot reason why you would take interest in one who is not human.

Ah... Could it be you like puppets, My Lady? I could make you many, many puppets, if it pleases you. However... I am thinking that none of my puppets will truly satisfy you. Perhaps, the most lovely and extravagant puppet of all would be you, My Lady.

231_7

...I don't want to be hurt anymore.

If you can find a place that hurts less, I'll be good. I'm always good. You said there were places that could get rid of the magic, right? So no one would want to hurt me anymore? That's... that's all I want. I don't need anything else. I'll be good. I'll do anything you say. I promise.

[Muttering to herself] Promise promise promise...

Current Mood: awake

wanderingdream

Mun, huh. You're unusual for an ordinary entity. You have so many others...why do you want to bring me out?

...A game? I don't think that would go well. You already have two people in other places. You should stay where you are for the time being...

Honestly. [Yaaaaaaawn.] While you get assurance on my voice, let me go back to sleep.

painteddoll

I don't care if it's YOUR name, too, it's all stupid and you should both stop, right now, in your tracks, before you have to start telling people there are three - no, FOUR! - disgusting creatures that I hate more than words can say, so I don't even bother saying.

Listen to your unruly pet beast. He understands, like Lucifer, that some of us only need to remember what's important. And even if that mythical someday comes when, oh, suddenly this little broken head is filled with nonsense and reminders of someone else, long ago, do you think it matters? Will any of them think it actually MATTERS?

...Your invalid little side story does not count. And neither does my Scorpion who, as you'll have me believe, will hardly be even that, if your stupid little fantasy has its way.

So, no. I don't want your middle name. I don't want your first names or last names or any names or books or wings or dresses or flesh or heartache or dinner or jazz or fair-weather friends. I don't care if HE looks like a gunslinger or a vampire or the little girl's father. We never really loved him, anyway.

Oh! And look at that. Quite literally NO MERCY. It's true, you were both trying to be too clever and look where it got you! Now you look doubly the fool.

And do you really think, in all truth, that you'd be the one selected to undress for the Toymaker? You stupid girl. They'll take my sweet girl prick, instead, because you know your queen will offer her. Stop being so silly about everything. Keep your lips pressed together and brace yourself.

I expect better from you.

wavesoakedlegs

I know you are uncertain about this loaned 'laptop,' but you were given it gladly. It was not otherwise being used, was it? The time will come when you can truly afford one of your own, Lady Mundane, so calm down. You are too much of a worrier.

...

What do you mean by 'takes one to know one?'

notruined

Don't you think this was a little over-the-top, mun? I understand they need to find a way to contain... well... my 'episodes' while on the ship in case someone ever threatens me, but did you have to make it so painful?

And did I really have to see her every time I pass out because of it?

Are all humans this cruel? I'm starting to think tormenting me is entertaining for you.

honey_glow

Ma'am, I can promise you, I'm not a cat...

plz2bconductor

Writer, it's been a while hasn't it? I can't say I've missed this.

How about we just forget this happened and you can continue playing with your new toys, mmm?

ohhihumans

Dear miss mun,

As much as I am really excited about getting out of the hotel and exploring I thought you said you were going to wait a week before attempting an app for me? It’s barely been four days. Not that I’m not interested in a haunted house, but it’s really not Haweewee. I was hoping for something a little more, ah… human populated.

I know, you said there were humans there, but I won’t know anyone there. Not even the monsters! And yes, I do know the point of exploring is to get out and meet new people. See new things. But…

This really wasn't what I had in mind.

sellerofsins

Right, I think it's high time you and I have a little chat, don't you think?

Seems every time we get together you end up sending me off to some Guantanamo Bay of a place with my powers about as useless as balls on a Pope and nothing descent to drink. Is it so much to ask that for once, we break away from the norm and mix it up? If it's not too hard, I think it could be mutually beneficial to keep me pleased. If I'm happy, you're happy. Right?

harrisonfoal

Seriously Mun, every time I tag another pony around here Rainbow shows up.

With so many eager young minds hungry for adventure and anthropology how can you NOT want to send me somewhere?

Come onnnnn, I'm a wandering soul. I need a mystery! A legend. ~~a date~~ Anything!

ventriloquills

Yes. Very clever.

I suppose the irony of voice testing when I lack a mouth is also why you have succumbed to a fit of laughter. You very well know I do not need lips to speak.

I recommend you calm yourself, my dear mun, before you strain something.

suckage

That's cute. No, I'm flattered.

But you should know that I really don't like people getting inside my head...

chanting

I know this seems like some sort of good idea. But, you know, it really isn't... [ !!! ] not even a little bit. It's actually really weird and--

Look, okay, it's nice to be thought of, sure. I get that. It's been a while.

But that place is really not for me. Not even a little bit. It's just-- I mean-- You'd think that they'd--

....I'm just really not in the mood.

secretcerberus

Trivialities aside, there's work to be done. I suggest you get to it.

heavenstouch

Did you honestly think you'd get anywhere with them overnight?

I already told you. It's going to take more than just a few scribbles. Maybe if you could settle on something, then we wouldn't have this problem.

oldschoolturk

You've got to be kidding, most of the people I'd know there have been dead for years.

...or like taking thirty year naps of making me think they're dead and then not saying a word to me when they do wake back up properly.

dredheadviking

Uh...mun?

Yeah, it's warm an all in here but it's kinda- you know. Boring. Really boring. There's nothing but guys that sound like Fishlegs.

And Hiccup, I guess.

What am I supposed to be doing anyways. Just sitting around here or are you actually you know, putting me somewhere?

At least a place where Barf and Belch can come...course...I guess I'd need Ruff for that. Eh, whatever.

sittingweird

*And, yes, of course she's singing*

nightfallen

I'm intrigued, Mun. Do you realize I'm the first Brit you've put in your headspace? Don't think this means I'm going to adapt to your American English - that would be unbecoming.

geomemancy

Dearest Sir Mundane,

I'm no spring chicken, but contrary to popular belief, the great Magikoopa Kamek can't be done in by flipflops. Just let the rumor mill run its course and we can get on with our lives again.

Sincerely,

Advisor to His Putridness, Kamek Koopa

frostheartedrose

You're doing the right thing, Mun.

Even if you weren't about to get totally swamped with work and family, the recent changes just don't fit me. I'm not the type to sit around baking pies while someone is obviously enjoying our forced dependance. And you never had the right schedule to really tag with me well there.

I don't have anyone to miss there anymore.

Now go finish your final tag, post the drop, and go work on your visa to China.

them_apples

Well then, perhaps you should consider it a blessing in disguise as I've not the time nor patience to be dealing with your regrets.

Frankly, had you considered a more logical approach, we wouldn't be having this conversation, and we'd both be spared a little grief.

literallyme

I understand your apprehension, I really do. It can be nerve-wracking-- like applying for jobs. Which you should also do, by the way, but still! I get it. That's why you're taking so long, but I have to be honest with you.

I don't appreciate being jerked around. I'm a simple guy, simple needs, simple, low-fat-high-in-fiber-diet. Could you just make a decision and finish (or don't finish) the application already? The wait is killing me!

staytofight

Your enthusiasm is overwhelming. [EYEEEEROLL] What's holding you back? A 'time' issue? That's a shame: I happen to have all the time in the world.

Unless someone finally manages to pry my head off back home.

( Spoilers for Breaking Dawn in second half and comments? )

allured

I do wish you wouldn't underestimate me. Your notions of me seem rather confused - because you are, perhaps. I, on the other hand, am not. It's simple. Far more so than you seem to realize.

I won't thank you for having the decency not to mention any feelings you imagine I had for the prince. The fact that you entertain such an idea - even silently - disregards any merit in that. Clearly, you understand that love is for the weak, true love nothing more than an illusion. I know this. You must keep it in mind if I'm to impress Father upon his return.

I think we have issues.
