Dec. 24th, 2012

My dear child no. No it is never too early for the warmth and joy of any season! I have often felt that I start far too late as it is, so I commend your efforts! [chuckle]

So to all who read these words I say unto the following. To you the warmest greetings of this holiday, and my sincerest apologies for being so very late! The Elves and I have been hard at work and tonight we fly.

To each of you who I may visit tonight and into the early hours of the twenty fifth, may your season and your year be filled with joy and harmony. May you be in the company of the best among you, and may you find he compassion within you to tolerate the worst.

Bogged down in the frenzy of your shopping and your holiday plans I wish for each and every one of you to take a moment to look about you and recognize you are blessed. Nay brothers and sisters, children [He puts on the warmest smile that he can.]

You are each loved.

Now! If there is anything I might have missed don't hesitate to inform me! Soon enough the reindeer will be hitched and we'll be on our way!

Mun, you shouldn't be surprised at hate the Hundred Worlds have towards me. A title such as 'Ender the Xenocide' is expected after that much time. The humans won't forgive me that easily.

[he says it with an air of finality to it. Even so, he knew that he was forgiven by the new Hive Queen. Even with that knowledge, Ender knew that he couldn't forgive himself that easily either.]

I'm relieved to know I got the job done, though. I gave the Hive Queen a chance to prosper again. I just hope that they are accepted.

catwoman

Come on girly, get your act together.

The longer you wait, the more restless I become. And you know what happens when a cat gets bored.

immortalking

Well hello there! I think this is the first time we've met.

[ He chuckles lightly. ] Just one day before Christmas, right? Shouldn't you be wrapping presents? Oh, I guess the same could be said for me! I certainly do want to thank Kuroh for all his help, and I did promise Neko a tasty treat.

Oh, and there's Kukuri-san! I should get her something really nice, even though...

[ A soft sigh escapes him. ]

Enough she doesn't remember me. I'll find Kukuri something really special so she won't ever forget me again. I know we're not really classmates, but I want to do something really nice for her.

That's what friends do, right? [ He's all smiles again. ] So, what should I get her? You're a "girl", so help me!

I want to buy her something unforgettable.

(ooc: canon is called Project K )

hellionated

So that's it, huh? We're done?

Yeah, I don't think so. If you think this is enough to stop me, you have another thing coming. So the game's ending and it's time to move on. It happens. It ain't the freaking end of the world, cause that was supposed to be Friday and guess what? Nothing happened, everyone's already over it. Including me.

I don't care what crap gets pulled on me. You should know that by now, so you should know I'm a survivor.

We'll find somewhere else. Somewhere that lets us remember. You have options, so don't act like there aren't any. Do what you know needs done, and start writing. Start applying. Stop wasting my time and yours.

You know I don't go in for waiting around. Let's do this.

guardiss

Are you an idiot? It doesn't matter how interesting other worlds might be, we don't have time for something like that. Did you just forget about the War Games, or are you seriously trying to distract me from them?

You're hopeless... If this is what I'm stuck with, then MÄR Heaven is doomed. I'll make sure someone tells Phantom that we've already admitted defeat. —No, not really. I'd never even consider doing something like that and you know it. Not even if you were our captain.

crossestheline

What do you want me to say? "Whoop-dee-doo!" or some shit? Rayner being around just means having to deal with someone else wanting to bust my chops.

[Shush, Jay. You know you want to have your pal around.]

How about trying to find Donna instead? Now there's a face I wouldn't mind seeing again.

crownless

...I've met some pretty strange people in my day, so know that I mean this when I say that you are one really, really weird bitch.

You know that?

[WOW MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU TOO, TRAVIS.]

hearsastu

So. Wait. You're telling me that there are people out there who don't believe in Santa Claus. Like, they used to, but now they don't anymore. They just: stopped. Believing. In Santa Claus.

...why?

beautylove

Could... we please stop discussing masturbation now? Particularly inside your own mind. Particularly... ah, y-you know.

It's just reaching levels of creepy now.

eyes_are_uphere

You're doing what, now?

No. No we are not going through this again, I was content to be left alone while you denied everything that was going on in those recent chapters. Was hoping you'd forget about me since you're already behind on things as it is in another game and doing awful things with that child and... him.

I guess I can't get that lucky, can I? It's either myself or Shizune and for whatever reason you're still going back and forth on if you're confident enough to bring her around here or not. It's kind of funny to watch in a way, but from the sidelines.

If you're going to entertain this ridiculous idea then do us all a favor and figure out what you're going to do. Not in regards to me but in regards to the other places you've stretched yourself to. You know what you have to do, you just need to grow the backbone for it.

Might want to get that app done before you go on your trip Thursday, too, just a suggestion so that you won't be panicking about it when you get back. If you don't forget about it.

remembermeandrun

So! Last night before we start getting new information.

[Oh, someone's excited.]

Well. That and the last night before I end up going off with him. And don't give me that look, we both know it's got to be me somehow. [We both hope, Oswin. There's a difference.] Even if I haven't got my memories of whatever happens by the time I show up, 's still nice to know I got the chance. If that's the case at all, they've all been very secretive about it.

And quit calling it a goodbye, you'll still have me around no matter what happens. Here and in that other place. Been through too much to really get rid of you, and I doubt you're ready to get rid of me, unless something unexpected happens. Which it might.

...Thanks. By the way. Might as well say it now, you're sort of the reason things didn't get boring up in here for the past few months. [A very small, but quite fond smile.] Guess we'll both have to find out what happens next, yeah?

godheals

Ah, mun, I see no reason to worry here. There is no reason to fret. You have a lot of things to take care of, but the good thing is that they are small. In fact, most should pass as the days go on and you adjust. You shall be fine.

However, you do not have to rush. You may be a little new at..'playing' me, but you shall be fine. Just brush up on what you need to brush up on and ask for help. Then you can write the application without worrying. You will not need to worry about having my..'voice' correct.

As Lucifel would say, you have all the time in the world. There is no need to rush.

fromrussia_withlove

Are you happy? Because I'm not. That is an awful name. Why would you even? And also no. We do not have "common ground". What you do here and what I do are too totally different things. Detailed backgrounds for my covers are...necessary. What does it matter that I know what Natalie's favorite color is? Or that when she was five she found this kitten under a bush and-

Shut it.

And stop grinning at me like that. I am so not having any of that from you.

I am not pouting. Master Assassins do not pout. Don't you have some kind of application you need to be writing? Or maybe some cooking to do? It is Christmas Eve. "Yules Eve" as you like to call it. Go bake some cookies and leave me alone for a while.

changelingdude

Hey Dude!

Police Navy Dance!!!

Glad you're enjoying the snow. We don't get alot of it in Jump City but usually there's enough of Christmas.

Sooooo you wanna know what I want for Christmas?

...well too bad I'm gonna tell you anyway.

I want a game! I want to get back out there fighting evil and having fun and meeting girls! Come on you could even use older me, even if my expressions are way cooler and the art style is more consistent.

...I mean I guess I'd settle for some Comic Books but I'd really prefer to find a game. Remember how it used to be? With Terra and Hay Lin and Duela? And Kevin and the rest of them?

Whatever happens, Merry Christmas dude. I'm gonna go find a giant candycane.

Deck the Halls with C-4 by golly

This is a great idea! We'll stay up all night watching cartoons and then be ready to pounce of Santa and jack his sleigh!

...well of course I'm Jewish. What's it matter?

Anyholly. All I want for Christmas is the rest of those Gotham City Sirens books! Oh and a game would be nice. Or you could buy me a subscription to DC Universe online.

OHMYGOSH! I gotta go find a tree. Red always knew where to find the best trees. See ya later Mun!

P.S: You didn't think I was gonna sing Jingle Bells Batman Smells did ya? I save that for tomorrow!

unmocked_lawr

For God's sake, mundane. If you're so concerned about this Crowe fellow's ability to portray me properly--or lack thereof--then I suggest you not bother with this "film" at all.

[But castmates, we might get more castmates out of this, do you realize what that means--]

And of what consequence is that to you? You've let perfectly well enough alone for the past year and offered up all manner of excuses when your friends suggested that you bring me back. I hardly believe a few more familiar faces will prompt you to start writing again.

[You sound entirely too pleased about that.]

That is because I am. I've no desire to return to the land of the living, particularly when my last outing ended so messily. The sooner you realize that, the better.

pudding_head_leader

HA HA~! We told Smart Cookie the key to long youth was freezing thyself in peanut brittle with a hint of fudge!

Thank thee for unfreezing us mundane! Now we must asketh thou where we are? This does not look like the newfound land of Equestria... This better not be a foul trap by Princess Platinum to keepeth us from the council, we are starting to get the impression she does not like us.

answerer_sword

I do not know whether to applaud you for finishing your app before your reserve was even processed, shake my head at the fact that you wrote an app so quickly, or clarify to you that getting me a new game as a present means little to me if the game is so technology-reliant. In case you forget, I do not do well with modern technology.

Also, should your two apps for me go through, that will make for a total of six games. That could easily overwhelm you.

At least there will be a Lancer there....

son_of_durotan

[What starts as a rumbling in the distance erupts into a vicious clap of thunder, shaking the ground and illuminating the sky like a sun. One orc shaman is pissed. More pissed than he's been in ages.]

GARROSH! If you're out there, come and face me like an Orc! The Horde is not yours any more than it is mine. We belong to no man, or Orc. What you have turned the Horde into is a dishonor to everything your father fought and died for!

I will not allow any to sully the honor of my brother, least of all his own son!

[Bystanders beware, Thrall is astride his massive wolf, with the Doomhammer drawn, lightning and fire crackling around the head of the weapon as he searches for the 'new Warchief.']

mera_mera_ace

[It is white as far as the eye can see. A little town was not too far off, the lights pale and dim in the falling snow around him. Ace stood just outside of earshot dressed up to protect himself against the cold he couldn't feel. He did it mostly because he was tired of the stares from other townsman and even his crew mates. People tended to gawk when they saw a half naked man in the middle of a blizzard and also because he promised a certain someone he would come in disguise. Even his trademark hat was missing in favor of a stocking cap. He really hoped the other man showed up. He had chosen this spot because of its proximity to the person he really wanted to see. Though at this point he was sure anyone would be welcome company]

Dearest Mun....thank you for my white Christmas. Though I can't feel the cold anymore it is simply beautiful out here and I thank you for this. Without your help I wouldn't have been able to sneak away from the others for a bit of downtime alone.

Only one thing would make this better. [holds out his hand to catch falling flakes] Merry Christmas, everyone. I wish you all could be here.

Current Mood: cheerful

curedtheglobe

Ah! It is only for a matter of time isn't it darling? Blood was always cheap. Life is inconsistent, consistently. You cannot help yourself, being a young lady.

Do not give me a reason to retaliate upon your agreement, I've dealt with enough vermin and leeches in my time. Make this worthwhile.

dreamofbetter

So far, all I'm getting out of this 'Christmas' thing is it's a time when people toss their money around and then a fat man sneaks into your house to judge you... And after he makes his judgement, he leaves you tribute.

Yeah, aside from the part about getting tribute, I don't really see the appeal, honey.

lartdelaguerre

Mundane! I see you've opened Norad's official website, huh? Always one to be happy about holidays heh. I assume you're about to track Santa and--

[ Grumbles. ]

Mun... What's wrong with you? We've already been through this last year, not that again... He exists. Why would a serious organization like Norad tracks Santa Claus otherwise?

[ ... ]

Will you stop mocking me? You're going to celebrate Christmas right? Who do you think will bring you your present if not Santa? Just, stop it!

deusexyandere

M-Mun, wha--- why would you--- I-I can't even---

Why would you bring THOSE to the Tower!?

fusedstars

....I must admit, I am surprised I am getting him back after all this time. Why the Consortium wished us to take care of it, I will never know.

At least a certain clown cannot ruin it, but this does mean even more caution given who is there.

fuknfreelancers

... no. No.

Get. The fuck. Away from me. You had your chance and you blew it, so you and your little group of friends can go back to playing with those new, totally not as awesome as me, losers. I don't want anything to do with you, The Director, any little glowing fuckers, a bazillion Washingtons... just no.

Fuck you.

You suck.

AND STOP FUCKING LISTENING TO THAT SONG!!

Current Music: Bad Girlfriend - Theory of a Deadman

larker

So, whose job again was it to tell the Vatican they got the date wrong? I think they missed that memo.

Sheesh.

Can't argue with the turkey though.

youwillgotohell

( spoilers for the series finale! )

didntlearnanything

Absolutely not, mundane! Ain't nopony told me about our worlds being destroyed!

The Apple family...

Granny Smith...

Big Mac...

Apple Bloom...

( The emotion of the situation nearly causes AJ to lose her calm, but she bites back any depression in favor of rage. )

I ain't letting you do that! This is just as bad as that "death" stuff I told y'all I was against!

boomsticking

( Spoilers are under here )

likes_the_odds

So, it’s all over, then.

( Final ep spoilers--and angst )

contractorial

I don't understand the point of putting me in this new body, Mun. Is it perhaps an attempt to better connect with me? You know that's impossible no matter what form I take; just a foolish move on your part. You humans can never properly detach yourselves from your emotions as we can.

... But. You promised me the possibility to gain new Puella Magi. That alone is very convenient, so I will let this play out for a while. Just don't waste my time, all right?

ofallthatssweet

guidetoanuprising

Every wish comes with a price.

(In reference to this very tempting box.)

meant

They were gallant knights. Men of honour, always fighting against evil and doing good. They were very brave indeed.

But those were only stories. You can't believe what they say.

[ there is no honour left in westeros. sansa's father had possessed it, and he had been killed for it. gallant knights and chivalry are the domain of stories and songs alone. ]

put_the_hammer_down

I wish all a happy celebration of the winter solstice!

[He lifts his hammer, whirling it round and round, a storm brewing overhead, but instead of cracking thunder and flashing lightning, a gentle snowfall begins.]

futuristics

Now Mun, I don't want you starting on anything you don't feel particularly comfortable with. Starting anything new - or going back to something I guess, in your guess - is never easy, and I don't think it's right to see you getting flustered over all the wrong reasons.

princessofllyr

Mundane, might I enquire as to what all this cheer is about? Usually you're so drab and dreary that I wonder if you even know what it's like to have fun!

Oh? A day of gift giving? How romantic! I would quite like to join the festivities, if I may. Perhaps I might be able to give you a gift of my own, should you give me some string and jewels to work with. Don't be silly, mundane! Of course I need to make you a present! Now, send me the materials quickly; I want to begin working as soon as possible.

neverleftharlan

This is why you should have lobbied for Tombstone or The Magnificent Seven.

Folks with taste don't object to those.

loadedbookworm

...What is that. Really, what? You've had me hanging around making random noise since 2007 and you finally decide to give in and make me a journal, and I get that? I'm not saying it's not accurate, but- It kind of makes me sound like a drunk. Didn't think about that, I see.

Yeah, Merry Christmas to you too.

cheeseless

Um... Mun.... wait, that was your name, right? [Yep] What am I doing here?

[We're just here to chitchat darling] Well... okay, I guess I don't mind.

But if we're going to stay here for a while, do you have anything to eat here? I'm a little hungry. Something sweet will do, like cake... or perhaps some cheese, if you happen to have any.

general_pitchiner

I honestly don't see the point in this, Mundane. While I appreciate the flattery, there are other matters I must attend to. The fearlings could get out, and it'd be all my fault.

[He purses his lips.]

I have to keep everyone safe and, most importantly, my daughter safe as well.

{{ooc: For those of who don't know Pitch's past, check out the summary here. }}

I think we have issues.
