Very witty username. I'm in hysterics. Hah. Do you have any idea how weird it's going to be to meet Elphaba as my half-sister rather than my mother?

breaksthelandscape

[No words, mun. The icons speaks well enough for itself. He can't. He just can't right now. Try tagging with him again tomorrow.]

routinemission

So this is what I have to look forward to, eh? I'm not really sure if I needed a new handle for this place but whatever floats your boat, I guess.

The name could use a little bit of excitement, though I get what you were trying to go for. Everything's just supposed to be a routine mission.

I can tell you right now that this is no routine mission for you. So this begs the question, "Are you going to put me somewhere or are you just going to have me sit here twiddling my thumbs, occasionally bringing me out to possible interested parties?" I'd prefer that you put me somewhere.

emeraldcrusader

Writer.

Why are we at this again? I already know how you operate, it's like this every time. And I react the same every time. I'm not going to spell it out for you again.

You're not going to find the "perfect" game, you're going to have to make some compromises.

[Yeah, because compromising is what you're SO good at, Hal.]

Hey, this isn't about me. This is about you. Either put me somewhere, or leave me be.

doingthemistything

... Well, that turned out just as expected. You know, except for the part where everyone has to go out and clean up after those idiots.

throughtyranny

[A small 'hmph'.] To say that I am not impressed is... a small... understatement. Do not waste my time.

domesticapproach

Hold on. Half a million years? You're kiddin' me, right? This has t'be a joke. Seriously though, you can't actually mean for me t'work off-- I don't even remember doin' it!

[Because that totally excuses things.]

fakeout_lantern

As thrilled as I am that you'd consider letting me out of this messed up headspace of yours, you're being crazy. I shouldn't be going to some weird giant turtle city and I definitely shouldn't be going anywhere with a Green Lantern ring. I don't care how funny you think it would be. I'd have no idea what I was doing with it and I am not Kyle's sidekick.

faussaire

Feeling bored, darling? Or is it that free rum you've got mixed in with the cheap cherry cola spurring you on?

Yes, it would be me, wouldn't it? I know you were expecting Ariadne, but this is a nice twist, don't you agree? Now, don't get me wrong, I have no intention of skipping off to one of those games you miss so much, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun.

Don't fuss yourself over the lack of icons. On your other computer and all. Trust me, you're among people imaginative enough to forgive you for your meagre offering. It's in the words anyway, not the look. The look helps, though.

Go on then. Write some tags. Let that imagination of yours run free. You deserve it.

techsavvy

Alright, I get it. You've pretty much made up your mind without me. As though I had a choice in the matter in the first place. But are you sure this is a good idea? Sending me off to who knows where--- Oh. You already have an idea! That.. was quick.

...Wait. A Tower?

What's so great about a Tower? Why not a castle or a city? You know, places I actually know? Yes, I know the castle had towers, but.. something tells me this Tower place you're talking about is nothing like the towers of the old castle.

Well, if you think you can handle it, then I guess I'm for it. Can't be much worse that what I've gone through already, right?

brokeherphone

To be fair, do you know how bloody hard it is not to break your phone while breaking into a castle in Syria?

That's right.

You don't.

...Drake properly breaks his bloody phone all the time.

tigerluck

Oi mun, I'm not getting any younger! Either look for a game or stop playing me.

I mean come on, I'm fine with anything as long as Bunny-chan is there.

W-Wait that came out wrong...

james_bond

Hard to believe that I was the one pestering you for a game and now you're the one who can barely sit still. Ten more days, think you can keep it together until it opens? If you are so anxious, why not finish those applications. Sure it's nice you have that sample, but the details need to be filled in too. Weren't you going to watch my movies again to help with that?

Well? Snap to it.

brittanator

Why do I have to post anything anywhere? You already got me icons. Way to show people that I stand for something more than looks. Fourteen different looks. Like that's all I am to you, a bunch of looks?

And don't think I didn't see which one you chose as the default pic, either. You couldn't have picked anything else?

Oh, and I saw how you've been working on that app. You really think I'm going to fit in there? Not that I care about fitting in, because I don't. But I mean, come on. I'm from a sitcom. Just because it's on NBC doesn't mean I feel comfortable with the constant threat of termination.

What am I supposed to do there, anyway? Not like it's going to count as credit. Am I supposed to do some sort of protest or pass around some sort of petition? I don't want to be like Hermione and the House Elves. I mean, sure, she had the right idea, but why couldn't those kids just clean up after themselves? What, do wizards not have hands?

kingofnightmares

Yes, I'm glad to have one Nightmare in my midst but.

Did you have to make her with the mind of a five year old? And Seraphina? That's the name you picked for her? It's too long if you ask me. ...What do you mean it's the first name that came to mind? I could have thought of something more intimidating! Like Onyx or Raven!

Whatever, let's just hope she matures over time. I don't want her licking me up a new hairdo anytime soon. Blasted horse.

plumeless

Wh -- what's going on?

[ Her wings still flit, albeit weakly, but all her feathers ...they're gone. Tooth examines her skin and finds herself quite worried. ]

Why am I -- where are my feathers?!

[ Panicking, she hops on one foot, examining her now featherless body. It's been so long since she's seen her own flesh anywhere but her face and hands that it all looks so foreign on her. Like it doesn't belong. ]

And these clothes ... [ She tugs at her skirt and top. She tugs near the shoulders and unknowingly grasps a bit of her hair. She freezes immediately and then reaches to her raven-colored locks. ]

My hair?!!

What did you do to me?!

evokes

Hey now, don't worry about things so much! Sure I'm not exactly the type of character you're used to, but come on! You and I have both done way crazier things, right? And it's not like the "silent protag" is so rare a type to see around these days.

Just take it easy, relax, and remember to have fun with this. It's not going to be all that great for either of us if all you do is panic and worry about it. ... and get some sleep too, why don't you. Jet lag and different timezones or not, tired is tired! Trust me, I know what I'm talking about. [Because when you have the Tired status, not even bizarre handmade medicine can fix you right...] Just don't blame me if you look back at this later and regret being so tired while doing it.

shadow_sage

You're actually going through with this. You do realize that just about the closest I've ever been to a sword before now is staring at Athame's sword in the temple, right?

Arguing with a voice in the dark is a rather uncomfortable experience for me. I hope you two see fit to wrap it up soon, or I'll do so myself.

unkindly

You're as cruel as the rest of them, you know that? Suchong, Fontaine, Ryan, even Tenenbaum in her own way. And you. Not a nice list to be a part of, but there you are.

My life isn't a game. I know, ha ha right? But it isn't, not to me.

So stop looking for icons, stop looking for games, and stop saying that.

For the love of god just stop.

deductiongeek

Oi. Haven't you done enough plotting this week already? You already trapped me in Wonderland in one game and as good as hospitalized me in the other. Is more really necessary?

13stepsbeyond

Thinking of it was unnecessary. This is not the day I want to be remembered for.

It's been a long time and I'm comfortable resting in your head without further activity. They've all turned out so... bothersome.

I know what happened to me, I know what happened to him and I'm starting to think none of it is important. The world wasn't worth it. None of it was.

I'll be here, but that is all there is to it.

lostmyblue

[Dear Mun you now have one huffy Amy Rose in your midst!]

Look, Miss Mun? I have things I should be doing that aren't running off to some other world, someone has gotta keep Eggman in check after all!

... and don't say "Oh Tails and the others can deal with it" to me! They've got their own thing to do too, and yeah yeah I know they can handle themselves just fine but!

I made that promise and like heck am I going to let you make me break it.

oops_spoilers

Heeeeeeeeeyyyyy!

So you finally decided to let me out, huh? Good, cause though I appreciate the little nap you gave me, now I just wanna go out and do stuff.

I mean, cousin Wally can't have all the fun, right?

Time to have some fun! Some adventure! Some apples- Chicken Whizzies, too. You're gonna make sure we have Chicken Whizzies, right?

...Please?

donkeypunching

I can get behind giving all of you bastards a nice big 'fuck you'. I don't give a colorful shit if I live up to your standards, or the one set by the other Dante from before.

You all can sit on it and rotate, and that other asshole can too if he thinks he's so much better than me.

wolfenris

Is there something you want mundane? I have little I wish to speak to you about or hear about. Your plans mean nothing to me and I will not be a pawn in your...games.

*he glares*

And it is your fault you have been making yourself emotional watching sad videos of me. Although why there are sad videos of me I do not even wish to know.

Stop that.

Just leave me...to continue on as I have. Avoiding the Mage, journeying with Hawke, and slaughtering every slaver who makes the mistake of crossing my path.

castleless

If you must apply to play me, there are conditions that you absolutely have to meet:

One, I will not willingly go anywhere without my castle. Try it and you will spend several days as an amphibian.

Two, for the love of everything, choose which canon you wish to play me from. Either the book or the movie are fine with me, but your bouncing between the two is giving me the most awful headache.

Three, Sophie.

I am sure you will meet all of my requirements with alacrity.

Your (un)willing servant,
Wizard Howl

wearsatorc

So much for being a retired muse.

ex_nightlights985

You're mad — no, stupid. Do you have any idea what stars do? Have you been paying attention at all?

Stars watch. We don't go on adventures, and we certainly don't participate in revolutions, of all things.

whitelily

Will there be a piano there?

[...isn't she at least going to comment on the fact that it's a haunted house?]

spoils_lil_brothers

Ah! Um...Mundane-chan? I'm very happy to be with you for awhile...But...I need to get home before my little brothers come home. Aki-kun doesn't like fried things so I need to make him something else too.....

Maybe you could come over too? I'm sure Natsuki would like you!

lonewolfed

[A place where the civilian population is mostly at peace and dreams have a way of making themselves public?]

[Yeah...no wonder she doesn't look the least bit excited at the prospect.]

No thanks.

thevoiceoflogic

...Well this means you can't put off on making a decision at least. Even the whole icon thing is a thin excuse now with everything.

No, I don't want to talk about what just happened. They'll get it together in time, I did hire them all for a reason and kept them when they did stupid things. They'll pull through you'll see and this won't keep them down for long.

vainvoid

Changed your mind, huh? This should be interesting.

inheritsloyalty

...you're a child to think such outrageous thoughts. Moreover, resist the so called "urge" next time before you embarrass yourself.

moonlightsonata

I don't think this is one of your better ideas. Of all the places there might be potential use for someone with my skills, you want to send me to a children's game where any and all weapons are banned by law. And that... thing... although cute, doesn't look like it's capable of protecting me from anything.

~~Why do I get the feeling that this one likes to sit on people's heads as a hat isn't just coincidence.~~

Then again, if all anyone is interested in asking my Tumblog is the status of my partnership with Chris and whether or not I should still be under mind control, this might be for the best.

But be sure you can keep up, and don't rush in. I might disagree, but I'll accept your decision when you come to one.

eat_ur_b12

So your taking me out to fire up some of your creative juices huh? That's a great idea! I used to have creative juices once, but then I saw a doctor, and now it's filled with jelly, CHILI JELLY!

So now I eat peppermint to make everything clearer! Do you know what else makes things clear? CARAMEL HAMSTERS!

[And now there are living hamsters literally made out of caramel everywhere.]

kingtobe

Nyahaha!! You truly believe you have the skill to imitate a King to be, Oh heavy one?! Such foolishness should warrant punishment, though I am in a merciful mood, so will spare you an agonizing death. Well?! Why are you not thanking your dark Lord, woman?! It would be little more than child's play for me to banish your soul to a universe of unending nightmares.

Now, leave myself and my Four Dark Gods to rest, insignificant one.

wariwulf

After all this time, you're finally giving me a voice? And we're going to do... what? In case you didn't notice, now's not a good time. Even if I wanted to go anywhere, I couldn't.

gotacavetroll

YOU SAY P0-NAYS?

WR ARE PO-NAYS?

fugent

The way things ended I don't really feel like going anywhere alone. You at least need to give that to me, don't you think? It's been way too long to just wake up somewhere without that hopeless Seaweed Brain tagging along.

smartassfancyhat

So now you're bringing me into your little delusions? I guess you needed something else to fill your head outside of cartoon characters you should have outgrown already and signs Nintendo and the rest of the gaming industry should learn to make something new instead of banking on the same fucking thing they've been doing for years.

So how does it feel that this is the closest thing you have to actual human contact? I imagine it's like how those "spunkgargeleweewee" online players must feel when they aren't slowly stroking hunting rifles while watching Fox News worrying about the nasty minorities taking away their fancy white person lifestyle. And when no one responds do you feel a desperate feeling of loneliness eating at your soul?

theothernapoleon

Oh, darling. You're in over your head if you think you can pull off such a scheme. But, for a price, I can offer some advice and some much-needed protection if it all falls apart (which, I assure you, will) - but everything comes with a price.

We'll talk soon. Let me know your decision then.

- J. Moriarty

hayato_undertaker

Shouldn't you be doing something besides reading nothing but manga? And why are you still up?! You've been up for late last night too! Go to bed or you'll get sick!

Why are you so stubborn?!

flavor

Oh, come now! There is no need to say sorry! I just got here and I haven't done anything just yet!

With such pretty girls around, I might get used to this lifestyle with ease. You don't need to make a disgusting expression at me, it's uncharming for such a girl like yourself!

It's still early, so take your time! I can certainly wait for any woman. In fact, let it be my treat for you... Perhaps you will get an even better treat soon from yours truly if you behave.

[oh my god, just stop.]

amarcian_biologist

Since you don't smell too bad, I suppose it shouldn't be a problem for us to get along.

[ Maybe she's fine with this because she might get to see someone important to her, but clearly she isn't all that amused about it. ]

I hope you're not planning something unscrupulous. I don't have time to play games when I could be working.

myownhand

Stop bein' so picky will you? It's gettin' pretty annoyin'. Bein' bounced from place t'place. I'm fine with what I've got if that's it.

And either way I've got a lot on my plate as it is. It's almost like bein' home with mum again.

[Shudder...]

Say... I wonder if y'happen t'like cake?

thesatisfied

I wonder if having me come out counts as a cruel irony. It was you, after all, who complained incessantly about Red Arrow and Artemis, wasn't it? I do admit the gun arm's way cooler than the arrow thing, anyway.

Enough--

You-- Someone really ought to--

Stop!

myteenagedivalife

"Muuuuunnn-saaaaan. Don't think it's a little too soon to be putting me in a game? After all, you're the one that said 'I'm probably never going to play Miku in the first place because she's too ditzy for me. Haha' You haven't even familiarized yourself with the whole append thing, either. How's that going to work for you?"

[ DIVA SIGH. ]

"I mean, it's not that I don't want to see Luka-nee but I'm definitely worried about getting in? You know? The application? You have to get that okayed before you think about any potential interactions with anybody else. Luka-nee included! So, just work on that already, why don't you? I'll still be here when you figure out what you're going to do and what direction of the application you're going in so-

Don't even think about buying a paid just yet! You can have that when you get in as a reward.

Oh, and you should probably ask Luka-nee's mun for help, too!"

discordancy

And so we come back to this.

You know that I will only go where I please, so why do you continue this struggle? You've never had a choice in this matter at all. All you ever had to do was to just concentrate on not embarrassing me with your mistakes. Or disappointing me, for that matter. Either outcome would not have ended very well for you.

--Hm? A threat? How dull. I like to consider it as more of an agreement. It makes your existence all that more bearable, no?

Oh, and one more thing: confusion is not an excuse for ignorance. Do try to remember that.

shieldbrother

You sure you wanna send me to some place with a lot of dragons? I barely got a foothold in the other place, and this other seems like a headache.

Well, alright, if you're sure. Just don't say I didn't warn you. I'm tired of standing around doing nothing.

elatum

This song and dance again?

[It’s said in a light, scoffing manner, though the humor doesn't quite reach his eyes. He hasn't forgotten the last foray.]

We already know how it will go.

See, I told you - we're all mad here.

circle_of_life

I do miss my family. (His eyes close as he allows himself to think about them. He doesn't let himself do so often.) There are times when a King must do what he never imagined himself doing. I can't protect them while I am in the city. But I can look to the stars and hope that the Kings of the Past have chosen someone to replace me.

Someone other than Scar. (His expression hardens and he raises his head, his eyes glowing with anger.) He better hope that I never see him again.

(With a great, mournful sigh, he continues...) Lead Simba to Sarabi. Under her guidance, he will become a great King.

majormalfunction

Afraid I can't hack it on my own, huh? In case you missed it, I've been doing fine all by myself. I'm a big girl and I don't need your kind of help.

flipkicking

[SOMEONE'S BEYOND ANGRY. And not bothering to hide it for once.] I can't believe you. A few months ago you were making speeches about how proud you were of the last game for not putting virus-driven abilities in a positive light, and then you turn around and jump on this as soon as you find a way.

Your first guess was right: I don't want it. Even if there's an emergency pressing enough to make me use it, those kinds of situation will be few and far in between. You'd have done better sticking entirely to healing magic -- at least then I'd willingly make an effort to maximize my ability with it--

And don't. Get technical. With me.

[One second, smothering temper.] If this is the road you really want to go down, fine. I can't stop you -- just do us both a favor and make an effort to curb your enthusiasm. This isn't a case where you can just throw everything at me as often as you want. [Like usual.]

disaffected

I realise it's been a while and you ain't none too pleased with how it went down last time.

All I'm sayin' is give it a real hard think before you do anything. I'm not too keen for a repeat of last time, and I especially don't wanna be sitting around idlin' in some place I ain't even had a chance to get used to yet.

I realise you're just gonna do what you think is best, even if what you think is best isn't exactly the smartest, but I figure I may as well air my grievances before you get to it.

nightsknight

Stop hesitating.

You're seriously thinking about finishing my icon set, writing an app, and sending me to one of these so-called games.

Fine. Do it. I don't have all day to sit here waiting, and you've wasted enough of my time already.

hangswithrobin

So my choices are pokemon, an otter companion, or... prison?

Why do I get the feeling you aren't taking my vote on this? In case it wasn't clear: pokemon. Duh.

And don't think I haven't noticed a pattern here. No Robin, no dad, no Spoiler. You really do get a kick out of ruining my fun.

deathforscience

Oh, yes, I'm certain you've thought this through properly--what on Earth would make you even consider drawing me away from my work to be a good idea?

It very well might prove detrimental to your continued existence if you do not allow me to return to my experiments. I have holy water to acquire, not to mention a rather rare artefact that will require careful planning and no small amount of dynamite to obtain.

If you're quite finished entertaining this foolish notion, I suggest you leave me to it.

scions

Wait a goddamn minute.

Let me get this straight.

So I'm finally out of one crazy, fucked-up city with perpetual night and monsters, and then I'm apparently getting sent to some giant boat with crazy, fucked-up shit going on?

I mean, it's great I'm at least keeping my swords this time around but there's a limit on what a girl can take.

collective_consciousness

It was painful for me to, but please remember that the girl in those videos isn't me. I would never do something like that, it would make Alice and everyone else really sad.

Maybe you could find me a new home to take your mind off of it? I know your really excited to be watching my series with your boyfriend, it might even help you explain my story if you play with me for awhile. So cheer up, everything is going to turn out all right in the end.

Trust me, I know.

[canon is serial experiments lain.]

facilitated

You know, I thought I'd gotten off the hook when that place fell down. Should've known things weren't going to be that easy, shouldn't I?

...No. Don't start looking. Just don't bother, because even if you tried to make me go there, you know it wouldn't work. It never works, that's why I've been stuck in "headspace" for this long.

Just let me get back on the road, it's easier that way. For everyone.

madness_mask

So, let me get this straight. You think throwing me in here and waiting for something interesting is going to work? Get me excited, maybe?

Look, I'll give you that it could get interesting and there are probably plenty of people here to... get to know, but don't count on it. One more thing before I end up surrounded by certain people. This user name? It's a couple hundred steps higher than your "sacrifices4husbands" idea.

padme_amidala

I see that your attention returns to me only after you have wasted time on others. We cannot - nor will we ever - see eye to eye if you do not listen to me. Can't you see the havoc you are causing by chaining me to your headspace? I have duties, Mundane: duties that you will never comprehend nor understand.

Let me go.

kelpful

Come on, 'kelpful'? Really? I mean, I'm all for a good pun when the occasion calls for it, but that's seriously the best you could come up with? Annabeth gets architecture terms and something that sounds halfway awesome - or at least deep and meaningful - and I get kelp jokes.

You're a jerk. Just in case no one's told you that before, I'm making sure you know.

What did you say about a turtle?

shinra_dog

So, we find ourselves at the same impasse, eh Mun? Ya found another game t' throw me where there's mandatory sex an', oh, an' this is the best part, ya get real kinky with this one 'cuz everyone gets a collar. Except it'll tighten an' kill 'em if they don't get their freak on.

The other option is a place where I'm a human guinea pig for crazy, torturous experiments. Really, yo?

I think ya know which one I'd pick if I had ta' choose. It ain't too difficult t' see the benefits a' the first one. I jus' want you t' think about it a bit more. Yer schedule's still changin' an' it's just gettin' heavier. Now, if yer sure ya really wanna invest in this, I'm behind ya. We got our disagreements, but I'll support yer decision 'cuz I know ya ain't that bad. But ya got a month 'fore you can app me t' Amatomnes. Take advantage a' that.

Jus'... please tell me you'll pick that one. Right? Sex over more torture I'm already gettin', right?

Right?
