Jan. 10th, 2013

Miss me? I know, I know, it happens. I'm impossible to resist once I get into your head. All part of the charm. I'm surprised it took you so long to come play again. Should I be hurt? After all, I was put aside for him.

Your taste has always been so hit and miss.

Well, never mind, you can start making it up to me. Find me something to do. Shouldn't be too hard, you've had offers and I see no reason why you can't act on them. And no, I'm not interested in your excuses. Not listening!

yourbirdisgonnafly

I admit that I have a little apprehension about some of the ideas you seem to have in mind for me, but considering the subject and the earnest regret you feel about how it may hurt me I simply can't hold it against you.

If it is a challenge I must be subjected to, then it is a challenge I will meet!

You know I can't just not care.

goddamnplucky

If you think you can toy with me you're damn mistaken.

If you just want to talk, fine, we can talk, but I did not go through hell and back just to end up someone else's toy for the third time.

We're done here.

mask_of_suffering

You really finished my app?! That's amazing! I thought you were going to quit half way through for a second there, but I'm really proud of you for sticking with it till the end.

I'm a little worried though, I took a peek at what your writing and...the ending is a little sad. I trust that you know what your doing, but I'm not sure I like it...

Oh! Changing subjects, I think I'm ready to go somewhere new and I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone. Even though we're not from the same universe, it will still be nice to see some faces from home.

protectivestreak

Come on, don't look at me like that. I tried to do the right thing.

airforcehero

Wow, you've only had me for a little while, and you're already sending me somewhere? You must be bored. But could you have picked a different place? Hardly seems proper to send me somewhere like that.

smartstobeyou

You didn't expect me to seat an average way like average people, did you?

For shame, Mundane. You of all people should know by now, presentation matters. That other muse of yours with the red headband agrees.

ladderalbeatdown

Okay, what the hell is with this username? Of all of my magic to comment on, you choose the Magic Ladder? Not the Wrath of God or Space Pinwheel, but the Magic Ladder?! You've gotta be kidding me!

And stop wasting my time; I have better things to take care of than whatever I'm doing here. If you're not going to tell me where to go, then I'll blow things up until I find something.

...No, I don't care what a Samus is.

number23rd

Seeing one of my kids here isn't a reason to drag me back out and consider throwing me at a game again.

.. Though yeah, okay, I want the full story about why Al's stuck in a ginormous suit of armor.

wentshopping

If you know you have other responsibilities, and that this one is hardly time-sensitive at the moment, perhaps it would be best to focus on the ones that are, in fact, timely.

I can wait. Heaven knows, were I either of my sons, I probably couldn't, but you're at least smart enough not to take them on.

Have a little patience.

[Character is Cordelia from the Vorkosigan Books]

godofthemachine

My dearest mundane, you really are too good to me.

Not only is my dear Ted on this spaceship with me, but apparently Gorrister plans to join me as well, even though he's been dead for ah, 200 years or so. What a pleasant surprise.

And please, stop reminding me that they can sneak up and kill me in this human form I've been imprisoned in. Such a thing will not happen.

For that matter, regarding this human form... Your drawings of it are rather terrible. A playby probably would have suited this purpose better, but you insisted on drawing some ridiculous concoction for my consciousness to be trapped in.

Ah, mundane, sometimes I despise you as well.

topslug

Well, it's been a while, but you haven't forgotten how to do this, have you?

Just remember not to rush into anything. You've still got the rest of the year ahead of you.

dimwit

Christ, not this bullshit again. You remember the last place you dragged me into and how long that lasted, right? At least that place seemed interesting-- this time you're thinkin' about some boring-ass middle-class suburbia. There's no fun in that-- and last time I checked, that's the definition of a game. Y'know, somethin' ya do for fun?

...Whatever, it's not like I'm gonna have much choice.

hatesthefall

So. Let me get this straight. You saw a movie musical set just after the french revolution and you came home with...me.

That doesn't exactly make a giant leap of sense. Should I thank the giant pit of despair you were in after watching it?

At least I'm not a certain green witch.

grindyourbones

Heeheehee...

Fee..Fi...Fo...Fum, is it?

I'm not a Giant, Mundane.

At least not unless the Dragonslayer gets himself killed again, heeheehee!

[Idk dude, you're pretty big already...]

deceitfulsmile

Oh, my little pathetic mundane, you've been rather busy tonight, haven't you? Do you honestly think you can capture the glorious essence of my character? Reading a few snippets from those mythology books does not give you a key into my complex psyche. Nor does watching those deplorable excuses for cinema count. And don't you dare even think to have me do penance among those would be heroes. Just thinking about those pitiful mortals exhausts my patience. You'd do well to remember that, little mundane.

favoredcompanion

Are you sure this is a good idea? The new semester just started and I don't think you should add anything else to your plate.... Okay, fine, but I'm not going to be responsible for any missed assignments.

You should at least maintain a better sleeping schedule. I don't understand how you and Sherlock can function with so little sleep.

evemoneypenny

I guess I should be flattered that you just couldn't resist bringing me back. Just try to keep up with things this time, love. And try not to swoon so much over 007, he doesn't need anymore distractions.

elicitor

Me? A villain? Oh, no no no. I'm-- really, trust me! I'm really not villain material. Heck, I don't think I'm proper hero material. Sure, a change of pace is nice and all, but this? This isn't-- I don't think it'll mesh, Miss Mun, I'm sorry.

You know, I like making people happy. I'm a chump. I am a gullible chump, just like Tricia says. That's who I am. "Marco the Dummy," ha ha. Everyone's got a role to play and I'm fine with the one I got.

Besides, it'd be cruel. Her entire life... she's spent so long trying to rebuild it, trying to remember what they took from her and... and I'd like to help her. I don't...

Well...

I don't want to hurt her. I don't want to-- to-- you know. Throw her off her track. She deserves to know.

So rethink this, okay?

devil_within

...A ship. A haunted ship. You are seriously planning on throwing me on there with nothing more than my gi pants and gloves.

And Chaolan is supposed to show up there around the same time?

...I despise you.

prismaticdestruction

You have been really quiet when I start to talk to you Mun....Is there a reason for that?

I am happy to see you want to put me somewhere...But is talking to others so bad? I want to see everyone again..Please?

athousandlifetimes

So let me get this straight. You want to take me from my world, which is awful enough, and put me in some other world? That might be more dangerous than the one I'm already in?

Were you dropped on your head as a child? How is this a good idea? How?

[Why does everyone always want her to suffer?]

femme_fatal

[She is not amused]

Well. I'm here. Now what? If you've nothing for me then might I suggest you just let me go on then? I've more important things to do than to sit around this place with all these other ridiculous people you've kidnapped. [with clear irritation she removes a cigarette from her shirt pocket and lights it up, making a harsh and angry smoke filled exhale.]

worrywart

It's not being a worrywart when you have legitimate concerns.

[You know... like a cult that wants to make his daughter the mother of their god. He's allowed to worry frequently! He manages a small smile, though.]

But I think I like this better than the old name. The other one was... depressing. [Pause.] You put a lot of effort into this one. I hope this means you'll consider letting me into a game once things calm down for you. A nice one. [Wishful thinking, maybe, but...] I'd like to be able to put Silent Hill in the rear view mirror and keep it there.

wright_idea

...For criminy's sake, could you at least stop referring to us as "easily excitable lawyers?" That joke's several years old already, just let it DIE, sheesh.

[*...*]

GAY LAWYERS IS NOT AN IMPROVEMENT! I don't even run that way, sheesh!

sacerdotis

You have done well so far, but I fear it may not last for much longer. There are few whom would ally with me, and they will not take kindly to seeing you here. But do not dispair, I can keep them a bay.

snakesuit

Oh, I know that look -- do I ever know that look.

Let's be real, here. How long do you think you can keep on playing all those holier-than-thou, justice-is-my-bff self-righteous idiots? C'moooon, live a little! You know you can only have so much fun being good, right? Right? Isn't it more fun to let loose?

Why fight it? You're only going to crash and burn in the end, right? Be good, good, good all you want, it doesn't change the fact that you get a better high playing, and I quote, "douchecanoes" like me.

So--- hahaha, okay, okay. Do what you want. Have fun being boring. Me? I'll just be sitting here with the rest of the guys, waiting for you to come crawling back like a kicked puppy.

Hard to be a holy knight when you've spent so long being me, anyway.

alwayskidnapped

Congratulations, Miss Mun! I am so pleased that you managed to finish my application, turn it in, and actually get accepted! Of course, I would be even more pleased if you had told me of the zombies and the monsters in this... erm. Place. Even so, I am confident that I will survive. Wh-why are you laughing...? Stop that!

the_goldenboy

Dear Mun,

I'm always up for a new adventure! Say when and point the way! I will be just fine with my relics and abilities given to me by my father. You say he's in the game? That will be great. I can't wait to spend some time with him and really get to know him. With the Titan war and all, I haven't gotten to talk to him about much besides the important things. It'd be nice to learn more about him as a person- well god.

With my faith in myself and my faith in the Dodekatheon, I shall find a way to thrive in the city of Bete Noire. I will defend it against the titans and spawn that are trying to corrupt it. No city should be given up on, even one with a name as daunting as the city of sin.

Sincerely,

Dean Pachis

kingofnightmares

It's been somewhat eventful, I will say that. Making 'friends', and having people around who actually want to meet me. It's a first, I will say that much.

Slowly gaining my powers back is a plus as well. Both you and I are anxious to see what happens when I get them completely back, I know. ...If any other Guardians are apped in the next application cycle, I'll be ahead by quite a few steps.

And please, don't remind me of that filly incident. You know that was unintentional.

honor_the_stars

Mun. Mun. Listen to me, okay?

I get that you think I'm awesome (which is flattering and correct), but come on. I have, what, four manga volumes? Is that seriously enough for you to write a well-thought out application? Besides, I need to be home for my job -

... Which is being a completely normal high school student.

Goddamn it, Mun. I really hate you sometimes.

4starsavior

Man, this is exciting! Dunno if it'll settle it once an' for all, or why we'd be trying to kill each other, but it'll be fun to watch! [Though, no matter who wins, one fanbase will be up in arms and ignoring it altogether.]

( Discussing the results under the cut... )

...Also, that Hulk guy's supposed to be really strong too, right? [Don't open that debate up, Goku. Just... don't.]

ofgisborne

If you find me to be a joke, do not waste my time with your drivel. I have things to do and you... you should find a better hobby. One that better suits you, woman.

manglemymind

[For the most part, Curt doesn't even say anything. His head is hanging low, and he's scratching at the top of some table, somewhere. Black-lacquered, occasionally chipped nails clawing at wood as he thinks a couple critical things over.

He clears his throat before he speaks, but it's not a stiff expression of discomfort. Just a warning. Incoming collision.]

I don't... think I really get what you want from me.

[Nothing, really, the mun in question would say. You know, if this wasn't meant to be a one-sided conversation.]

I'm past my due date. I don't even play anymore. Not really.

[He doesn't consider anything he does real(ly). Hasn't for, say, most of his life.]

I'm thinking-- I'm thinking about getting it dyed, you know. [His hair's long and blonde. Don't trust all of his icons. Continuity isn't all that great, anyway. So, when he fingers a lock of it, it's almost platinum.]

Can I do that?

womanwhobeatyou

Really, as much as I enjoy your continual attempts to have me collect every incarnation of Sherlock Holmes as a pet, I am drawing the line at detective mice.

Men I'll keep on leashes, dear. Mice belong in traps.

sonof_thrain

The fire drake, Smaug. The bane of my life, you know that already, scribe. How am I to battle a dragon? Any ideas? Some sort of strategy will need to be formed. Approach from behind or stand and face the threat? I know you will try and keep me out of danger but I fear not. Let me finish what I started.

Perhaps, I can delay the dragon while our burglar reaches into the cave and finds the Arkenstone. Will we have to see.

Current Mood: calm

champions_legend

Really mundane-san.

T-There is no need for such glee with the horrible situation I am in that place. T-Though I suppose I should be grateful that i-it wasn't a-anything worse. [Nervous grin here.] Y-You are right though. My team is useful against the Zombies t-though I really must protest your desires to wound H-Hinoa during this. She's been though enough.

N-Nor is there reason to be so gleeful over someone 'picking up' Ookido-kun. For someone like him, I... I'm not sure I understand the delight. He's well... You know how he is.

saxsongs

I've been loud ever since you acquired me as a muse, my dear player. I didn't suddenly "get more reasons to be loud" because of castmates. You're just imagining things. Especially the last part: Hijirikawa has got nothing to do with this. Don't give him too much credit, lady.

[A sigh.]

Though I'm right about one thing. Things are getting more and more complicated. At least there has been no signs of anyone figuring I'm a spy - then again, I haven't really given much information out lately. Should work on that, huh?

-- and no, I will not tell Haruka or Hijirikawa about what I do. That's a definite no. I wouldn't want the lady to worry, after all. [And he doesn't want to get lectured by his roommate, but he'll not mention that.]

nootherwill

Now really, you should be far more cheerful. Playing a Queen of England may be a challenge, but surely I would simply be a delightful one! My lord husband would agree with me, he'd tell you of my traits, all of which are both desirable and agreeable, and how I am indeed the most perfect of muses for you to possess!

But! Whilst having fun and making cheer is obviously of the most importance, you must make sure to treat me with the respect that I, as the Queen of England, so definitely deserve. [ She really likes repeating that bit. ]

Yours,
Queen Katherine

nyarnako

You know several people who play big bro. I don't think they'll be too happy with what you're doing. But maybe they secretly wanted it too. That could be why I'm here.

I think it's funny how people can be so creative! Why do they talk about such awful things as if they were fun, though? It's just hard to look away from all the bad things in life. Could that mean that awful things really are fun?

There's a lot I don't understand, but that's okay.

Everything is okay.

rainbowcorn

( she speaks in a Korean language but is actually saying:

"Oh, hello dearie. Thank you for finally making me an account. I've been here for a long while and I was beginning to wonder if you would ever make me one!

Anyway, it feels great to finally stretch and you say that my friends are around this place, too? That's great! I hope to see them very soon.

And don't worry so much about getting icons for me. It's not a big deal! Two will be just fine for now." )

metalworking

I am glad to see that you are rereading the books again, Mundane. I suppose that you want me to be glad that you are pulling me away from my sisters, brother, and my duties? I don't believe I will be regardless of the place where you are thinking of sending me to has my brother.

Leave me where I am, I don't want any part of your games.

hascooltoys

You know, I can appreciate the self-confidence and borderline narcissism that comes from you going "I can do this better" and all but really, mundane?

They say something about pride and parables about Icarus blah, blah blah but I have doubts about you taking me out into the so called 'real world'. Quite frankly, your motives for picking me up are suspect at best and leave me feeling rather...dirty. Which when you consider we're talking about me that's saying lot.

pinnedandbroken

Who are you? [We've been over this.]

Seimei will not abandon me, you heard him say that much so don't talk pointlessly about it happening. I abandoned Ritsuka, so he most likely wouldn't speak to me again even if I were to look for him anyways. I don't want to see him, I'm no good for Ritsuka.

Call Kio instead.

oftheblack

If you're going to drag me out from that pit of nightmares you call a brain, dear, at least give me something to do.

[ Other than twirl a chess piece around ominously and wonder why the tea around here is so bad. Weren't princes supposed to be spoiled in your headspace? ]

You know I'm not one for idling about when there's important affairs that require my oversight. Either send me home or send me somewhere interesting... or I'll send you some place you'd rather not go.

herwaltz

We always knew everything was about me, darling. Don't play like you thought otherwise.

Still, I'm glad I get to go somewhere new and exciting on this other 'site' as you put it. It should be interesting, and I won't have all those disapproving stares from Marcello to deal with. ~~I am not trying to coax him out, I don't know why you would suggest such a thing.~~

Do relax, though, won't you? The stress can't be good for your looks, darling. And you are a pretty little thing. Can't have stress lines showing this young in your life, can you?

yours, Musetta

walkinthruwalls

Woah. Hey. It's, uh, nice to see a familiar face again, I guess. I mean, not that I don't appreciate the hello but just dropping in is-

Yeah, I've got nothing there. So, breaking the peace, I know what that means. At least you've got better intentions than some people here? I mean your friends are kind of weird, and I know where that's coming from so... it means something, okay?

Just... drop by again? I don't mind. A friend's good.

lovesmermaids

Why the sudden interest in me again? Not that I'm complaining or anything, I like it I'm just...curious, that's all. And you say you're looking to take me somewhere? Into some game?

[A pause]

Do you really think that's a good idea? Yeah, I know you know what you're doing when it comes to games and all but where are you thinking of taking me? Don't you think I should know?

No where too dangerous I hope, not that I can't take care of myself...Though I can't imagine anywhere being as bad as what I'd have to deal with if I was back in Atlanta.

keen_eye

I have an idea. Why don't you app me and Lyrl and Sissel? It's so simple!

bratbeyond

You wrote a slagging guide to help people better understand my religion?

I didn't think Islam was that hard to understand - and you defined what an Auntie is? Y'Allah, why would ANYONE define that? They're people you're better off not knowing about, like Drake or some of Drake's weird friends. Except Drake doesn't pinch your cheeks and tell you how much you've grown or if you'd like a cookie.

... I'd hope. But I guess you did okay, if you really had to do something like this. As long as you don't attract a whole swarm of Aunties, I'll get over it. Eventually.

spraypaints

Bit hasty when you don't even know if you'll like the game.

...I'm sure once it's out you won't hate it that much? Or me? You made this journal because you liked me. Right?

circlingthedrain

Okay. Wow.

The journal name? Really? Circling the drain? It's not even a quote from me. I am sure I said something in two seasons that sounded great not and not insulting. Well, not insulting to me.

But we can work on that later. Right now we need to talk, Buddy. About the whole "apping-me-in-a-game" thing. [She's actually doing the bunny-ears quotations hand gesture.] Not gonna happen. I've already got my hands full with the whole purgatory stuff. You know saving the souls I sent there. In case you weren't paying attention.

But no. No. You want me to drop everything so you can send me to a place where I won't even be able to be seen by people. Where only supernaturals can see me? Well don't be too hurt when I say I'd rather pass. Being ignored by the living? Kind of get enough of that at home. Thank you.

Now if maybe you were sending me to a place where I got magically turned human again, we'd maybe talk. Of course it can't be one of those 'have sex or die' games. Though I wouldn't necessarily have a problem with that.

littlebigmage

I suppose you think this nickname is funny.

I think we have issues.
