Feb. 24th, 2013

While I quite welcome the change of pace, I can't help but feel some degree of concern towards the amount of time I am likely to spend somewhere that is-... somewhere away from Miss Suzumiya?

[For a moment, it seems as if some genuine displeasure might manifest itself, but he dismisses the worst of it.]

...As I said, a change of pace. They do know I'm busy, after all. I'm sure Miss Suzumiya is quite capable of maintaining a positive attitude by herself, and if not? The Agency is always ready, even lacking my presence. If we fail, then the world risks changing every day - I suppose it does no harm to see this as some sort of a practice-run.

icy_heavens

I realize I've asked you this before, mundane, but you keep making it necessary:

What in hell is wrong with you?

Current Mood: angry

downeddragon

[The dragon looks at his mun curiously. Really? It's been so long! And now you bring him back out? Just what on earth have you been doing, Mun?

Toothless stretches his wings, wriggling his whole body. Being cooped up in that headspace for so long took a toll on the creature. He flexes his wings again before he looks down at his tail and the familiar red flag on it and his harness, before looking back at his mun.

Will he see Hiccup around again? It's been a long time after all. He lets out a curious croon.]

monoculi

So your game plan consists of... scrutinising various options and flapping?

Y'know, I hate to break it to you, but flapping does not an application write, my friend.

P.S. Congrats on the icons. Of course, not a single one has the patch, but I'm sure you won't let a basic requirement like that get in the way of your crazy.

dickandharry

...you're sending me to a game with the Joker and Tom Riddle.

Lemme repeat that, just in case it wasn't clear: The Joker, and Tom Riddle.

HAVE YOU COMPLETELY LOST YOUR MARBLES?!

jailbirds

Oi, are you kidding me? What's with these plans? Turning me back into a kid just to mess with everyone... Tch, like anyone will even care. And if they try to say anything about it afterwards, I'll just shut them up. Ah, you're asking how? Violently.

But those other two... Don't you dare. You want to bring that bitch back as some stupid zombie? Ha ha. Cute. It's a little impressive, honestly; you found a way to make her an even more worthless sack of shit than she already was. You're wrong, though. I wouldn't be scared of something like that. Doesn't that mean it can't qualify for a "worst fear" experience? Obviously, I'd just kill her a second time. Hell, that sounds like fun. But I'm still saying no.

That last one is just sick. There's no way I'd let that happen. Anyway, what kind of bullshit is that? An alternate world where that whore who called herself my mother didn't die - I'll kill you if you even try it. You're getting some twisted ideas for it, too... Hmph. You've really got a fucked-up mind, in the end. I knew I couldn't trust you with anything.

Yeah, yeah. Like you'll even get a chance to make any of these disgusting fantasies happen. You're a real pain in my ass, y'know? Just stick to what should actually be happening to me. I want to get out of prison already; it doesn't matter what's waiting for us out there.

And lastly, if the words "second game" ever cross your mind again, you're gonna lose your fingers down your goddamn throat. Yes, even if it's attached to "at the end of the year". I don't care when, that's an absolutely fucking not. The community is enough for me.

swamtofrance

You realize, of course, that it's been more than a year since you've played me. More than two years since you watched any of the films and longer still since you've read any of the books. As much as I enjoy your attention, it's really not a clever idea. Especially if you're thinking of that...

War game. As appealing as the weather there may be. [All that sarcasm right there.]

And I would recommend not inviting Aro into your headspace. It would cause more trouble than it's worth, I promise you.

notlaura

Hey. It's really late - d'you think we could do this later? Tomorrow afternoon or something? I haven't been sleeping too well since the funeral. And I've got tons to do around the house for Aunt Sarah and Uncle Leland. Everything's been so tough on them.

We can talk about whatever you want later. Promise.

puppyface

Uh, whoa, man. Come on, you paid for a premium and everything! You sat there until 5am making hundreds of icons and you just, I dunno, forget about me?

I mean, cool, I get it, Rise of the Guardians was a pretty cool movie and it's not like I mind sharing headspace but--

Well, I don't, I mean, I was here first and everything but that's not really--

Look, I just want to play again. I know you're mad about a lot of things, but you don't even have to watch season three.

...And I kind of really want to get back to playing with Allison. Thaaaat was kind of great. So, uh. Maybe? I mean, think about it?

ingwe

[The proud huntress just rests, flicking her tail idly. She is agitated. This is apparent. It takes a good long time for her to speak.]

I have somewhere I should be, yes? I am not some kitten to be tamed. I am free, and will remain as such.

willdestroyyou

( You're about to view content that the poster has advised should be viewed with discretion. )

fisherpriceman

So, uh. This is happening, is it? You're actually doing this? You realise that you're about ten years too late to the party, and that's only the tip of the ice berg that the Titanic capsized against, yeah? You've barely even watched the documentary for the first time, and you're already running before you can walk.

And anyway, this is a bit fucking weird. I mean, you've gone and made an account for me, which - well, first of all, thanks - and now you're scouting around, looking for people I already know for me to talk to. Which actually, you don't need to do. The last thing I need is Gareth popping his weird, little knobbly face into my business. I get enough of that at work. It'd be nice to see Dawn, yeah, of course it would be, but it's like I said: the only thing that most of us have in common is the fact that we're sharing the same space for eight hours a day.

If anything, I'd be more than happy to, uh, stretch my... figurative wings for a bit. Meet new people, make some actual friends outside of the oh so wonderful paper business. It'd be... well, it'd be new and interesting, which is something that my life sorely lacks.

50shadesofblack

And you call me a night owl? You do realize that I have a moderately normal sleep schedule, yea? At least I have more sense than to stay up till 5am, wake up at 6pm, and then go on to stay up the entire night so you can go to sleep later tonight at a decent time so you can survive through school.

[He crosses his arms, a frown curving the corner of his mouth down. After a moment he shakes his head lightly.]

You worry me sometimes, child; you know that, right? You can't even bother to check the time so you can get to sleep. You have problems remembering to eat for Din's sake! AND it's gotten worse over the past few years! Is school really that much of a personality vampire to you? If I wanted to wager a bet on your life, I'd say you'd starve out of pure forgetfulness.

[Cue sigh and bridge-of-the-nose pinch.]

Take care of yourself for once, you stupid ninny. I don't want to have to be the one to tell Britt that you keeled over because you're completely negligent to your own health, alright? [Pauses to chew at his bottom lip, though it seems more out of irritation than worry.]

And for the love of fuck, do your damn homework when you're in your right mind to. Last thing you need is your teachers and grandmother nipping at your heels while you're like this.

bloede_dhoine

Have you completely lost all of your remaining wits, dh'oine? Sending me to a world riddled with filthy beasts and dragons? Your intelligence for a dh'oine really does test me. I thought you had better sense than this madness. Can't you see I have to fight a war? A bloody, pathetic war against the dh'oine filth who infest our lands? A king who is unfit to rule the vermin under him.

Very well. It seems, I will have to obey your whim this time. Yet, I will not be easily coaxed into this game. I have my scoia'tael units standing by in case things turn ugly. Which in all likely hood, they will.

I have fought dragons before. An arrow through the eye hole or a sword through the heart usually finishes the bugger off. Be warned, I will not play along as you so wish.

Current Mood: anxious

herotypical

Hey. Keyboard Girl.

You're the one who keeps saying you'd give an arm and a leg and maybe even more to trap Dawn in wingdom with me. Do I miss her? Yes. Do I want her here? ...Yes. But do I want to see you maimed in the process--?

...A-actually, we can probably mark that one down as a 'yes' as well, can't we?

No. Listen. My point is that you really gotta cool it on the casual wishes. Someone might come along and actually grant one of them. And then where would you be? Haven't you seen enough of my life to know that a gal should always wish responsibly?

Still, I suppose I wouldn't exactly be opposed to a few familiar faces...[ oh great now she's in a wishtastic mood. we're all doomed. ]

crazyamy

Frankly, I'm pretty darn mad at you!

You made such a big deal about sending me "out and about", as you said, and I almost had a heart attack about it, and --

And then you forgot about me! That's -- that's just not fair! Not to me, or anyone. How dare you?

Tease me about it all you want, but I ... well. I actually grew to like meeting people a little bit. But then you ripped that away from me! You're a terrible person. Just terrible.

If you'll excuse me, I'm just going to go ... somewhere ... and try to avoid the death that you so clearly want me to suffer!

confiteor

You once told me you'd grown tired of this old voice.

I missed you too. I think maybe some tea, and some catching up is in order.

youmustbetrolling

Grahahaha! Well what'du we have here huh? Finally lettin' the troll out to stretch his legs? Tellin' ya now, ye're gonna regret it. I've been cooped up in ya head for so long, there's no way I'm going back now!

... Oh, and hey you're even puttin' me in a place with some of my League pals. Wonderful. I've always gotten along great with those guys. I might even teach 'em a thing or two about how us trolls like to go clubbin'...

[And then he's going to give a low laugh that almost sounds like a groan with how raspy his voice is. See it's funny because by that, he means he's going to hit them in the face! With his club! LOLOLO Trundle makes the best puns.]

historicalinaccuracy

[Here stands George Washington himself, gripping a mysterious shining orb on a staff. But he may not be as your history texts remember...]

Pledge your loyalty to my cause for freedom under my absolute rule, Mun. Leave this power in my hand, so I may stamp out those who oppose the force of liberty and hold my rightful sovereignty. Then we will see if I abide by your control over where I may preside.

itscaptainjack

Can't say this idea of your's be a good one, love. I need me ship, I need the Pearl, not giant flying lizards jolly-ly traipsing about.

[ a sway and a frown. ] Perhaps you be forgettin', but the memories ye be wishing to leave me with leave much more to be wishing for. [ having to stare into beastie's lovely throat does rightfully warrant complaints. ]

[ oh and wait. w e l p.] And Hector be there with his wretched monkey?

[ :| ]

oncebitten

It's definitely been a while, but it's good to know you haven't completely forgotten about me. You're even rereading my role in the stories - I'm almost flattered. Only, well, I know what you're like, and I know what happened the last time we were both here. It's not that I'm complaining, mind, I'm just attempting to make a very polite point. It's just that you get nervous whenever you so much as look in my direction, and the same could be said for most of the people currently crowding your headspace. It's not like you haven't been known for rushing into things before, and Merlin knows that I'm hardly the most stable of people to go running off with. I'm practically the spokes person for stranger danger, which - well, is putting it lightly.

And if you're absolutely sure about all of this, then try and pick somewhere where my fuzzy little problem won't become too much of an issue. I know that you've got your sights set on somewhere already, and that's very flattering, it's just - I know that it's not going to be much help whenever a certain celestial orb starts rears its ugly head.

Alright, well, I just wanted to get all of that out there before you decided to run off into the deep end.

P.S: Those keywords aren't funny.

student_zero

Don’t worry, we can surely see Instructors dream come to life. We just need to train really hard and I need to become a really great teacher!

But how can I do all that if you want to send me somewhere? Seems like it’s defeating the purpose here….

humanhero

Arrgh. I dunno if I really like this mad mood-floppin' between games I'm goin' through right now. One place I'm havin' the time of my life at summer camp, an' in the other I'm just now gettin' over being....freaking mauled an' now....

...now somethin' happens an' a giant ship crashes into the middle of the city??

See I figured I'd miss everything being stuck inside. I'm fine now, REALLY...

I just want everything to go back to normal man. Guess that's too much to ask for.

theredviper

Well, good afternoon to you, milady. Here I had thought I would never see the light of day again, however brief it seems to be in Westeros at times.

Perhaps I should count my good fortunes for being of Dorne.

Yes, yes, we all know of our fates, it is the nature of any good story. Do try to look past that for a few moments, would you? The pressing matter is here and now, mundane.

snakelady

.........

Responsibilities...I imagine you know what they are. Unlike you, I have many. All of them need to be tended to... The Battle Pike is my main one. It is far too important to be ignored in favor of your plans. Abandon your ideas of sending me to a game and return me to where I belong. I detest pointless conversation, so this will be the last time I ask. Do not cross me... It is ill-advised.

....that's all I have to say on this matter. Disappear already.

heavenisaplaceintvs

...You said big bro is probably gonna be there, right?

What about dad?

( a beat. )

I need my family, Miss mun.. I really do. They mean everything to me! I don't... ( want to lose them.

she sniffs a bit. )

...At least the place you're looking at seems nice...?

punishedme

I was reasonably content to sit and watch you "torture" others. There's no need to add me into the fray with one of these journals. I think I've about earned my dues, thank you very much.

[She crosses her arms.]

If you get extra crazy and decide to stick me in a horror game or something? I will put a tire iron through your skull. Fair warning. I know how you work by now.

not_so_evil_twin

I really don't care what plans you think you have for me. If you send me to this...turtle city...my focus will be on escaping. It doesn't matter what those others are up to, I have far more important things to be doing than preparing to fight some nebulous threat or getting involved in whatever drama Bart's friends have worked themselves into.

Do us both a favor and don't waste the time sending me there.

thehamartia

Well I'm not sad to see that 'Superflu' stuff go. I'm not suited to dystopia, seriously. It's going to be way more fun now, alright?

I know you're worried I'll never do anything again, and that's fair enough, but it's okay. No commitment, I like it better that way anyway. We'll have some fun, you and me. Just you wait.

tapes

It has been a while, hasn't it? Twenty-four whole years.

[ A pause, and then: ]

How's Annie?

meatguy

Just how many weird places are you going to be sending me to? One was enough.

lordofabysus

Well, well, well, Mundane.

It seems as though you haven't forgotten about me after all.

I am awfully glad you decided to bring me out to play.

There seem to be an awful lot of new familiar faces about.

I can't wait to see who else shows up.

acolt

[No really, what's the point? It's just an old magic gun anyway, no one will want to mess with it. It doesn't even look like it works anymore. It does, of course, but it's very insecure about its appearance.

It can't even go to a game anyhow, why is the mun playing with its feelings like this? That's just as bad as when those Winchester assholes dropped it in a field and forgot about it.

It is so hurt right now.]

You're a... a woman...

Ugh. I'd be more comfortable with a man playing me. Just... keep your distance! Get away from the keyboard, you're too clo

stillplaying

Are you really that much of an idiot?

[She scowls, glowering at her Gamemaker the best she can. The stupid girl who takes far too much pleasure in these games, in subjecting her to them. Of all the preposterous ideas, of all the stupid thoughts to ever cross this girl's mind, this one has to be the worst.]

No. Just no. Stop even thinking about it. I don't want a roommate. I don't want one at all. I'm fine alone. I prefer being alone.

Effie Trinket is a grown woman. And I don't owe her anything. So stop it. Stop thinking of your own entertainment and amusement.

She shouldn't even be coming to Luceti in the first place.

southern_spitfire

Ah don't think bring'n Joseph in was a good idea. You know Ah want to help him any way Ah can but this just give me that "This is gonna get worse before it get's better" feelin'. But thanks ta you Ah've got staffing and enrollment ta worry about now. So Ah'll have to deal with him when Ah get a break from worry'n about all that other stuff. Don't get'cher hopes up Darlin'. Ah sure ain't.

femio

Ohohohoho, and who might you be? A mun, you say?

SPLENDID!

Mon amour, my dear mun, I'm sure you must know the curse which ensnares me so! It is most admiring of you to have me, to take upon such a burden of having a muse that Loves all and is Loved by Everyone!

[ DRAMATICALLY HUGGING HIMSELF NOW ]

Gh! What kind of prince am I?! To allow a fair maiden in bearing such a curse, it's unforgivable of me! Unforgivable, absolutely unforgivable!

TRULY I MUST BE PUNISHED FOR COMMITTING SUCH A HEINOUS SIN--!!

vainity

I appreciate you wanting to talk to me, but it's a little unnecessary to do so on an open platform.

Yes, it's startlingly witty that you're going to put me in with a group of unwelcoming fairies. However, I'm all for it, if you think it's going to help you loosen up. There's no point placing me in one of these games and just leaving me because you're too nervous - or too unimaginative - to do anything.

As for everything else... loneliness isn't an issue for me. I'll be fine. Go and finish, there's only twenty episodes left.

myownhand

Did y'really have any doubts?

elderspeaksfirst

Joor feim. Mortal things pass, both good and ill. Bide for a while, and some may yet return to you.

[He lowers his head a moment, thinking.]

You are often eager to hunt more than you can bear. Diin frini. You have enough left before you, and I… [a low chuckle] Zu dein drem. I am patient. I will have tinvaak with those who will speak, teach those who will listen, fly freely in the skies once more. That is more than enough to content me.

Current Mood: philosophical

I do not need a full-time babysitter or bodyguard. Is it really necessary to repeat that joke so many times?

Besides, I resent the implications. I am perfectly capable of handling myself in dangerous situations.

*Dearest mundane, perhaps you've been spending too much time in that version of London Below if you think getting into a staring contest with a cat will yield an answer.

Night and shadows may be a cat's domain - the designs and aspects of noir has a certain appeal but the burden of working out the logistics rests solely on your shoulders.

I think my time is better spent going for a hunt, the mice are getting quite rambunctious again.*

proseboscis

So, it's been quite a while since I was seen both here on the forums of "Dear Mun" and also within the comics from which I was born. Tell me, has there really not been any word of me in any of the comics of the "sordid mess that is the Reboot"?

Why are you looking at me that way? They're your words, not mine!

[There is a cricket-y sigh and sad music coming from the small cricket man]

It's such a shame. I dislike that I no longer exist, but if you believe me better gone, I suppose i should follow your wisdom.

godhandgoalkeeper

Hey mun! I like your eagerness, and it's nice that you want to play me! You should definitely finish watching everything first!

[Mun what are you doing, you're not even done with aliens yet.]

You should always be prepared before doing something. Heh, I don't like standing in the way of someone else's fun, so do what you think is right! Just make sure you watch everything before you send me to any games!

Let's do this!

evercry

Good evening, Mun-san. I'm not sure how I should feel regarding your affection for my... suffering... [Because being worked out through her issues sounds so much fun.] But I agree in that you should think this over carefully. Even if "impulse apping" worked for you once before, this is a very different situation with very different consequences. After all, it wouldn't be that enjoyable for either of us if the pain in my stomach was still there.

Of course, it may be difficult for you to work around blindness as well... You really do have a difficult decision ahead of you should you choose to go through with this. I'll wish you luck with it, regardless.

hidesfrommonsters

No, please I think it would be better...yes better I think that you don't do this. It was safe staying there in your head and not out here, in the open. Don't think many places would help and you did say many are not safe.

You don't even know a place to even try, and really it's alright. Even if I could see and thank Tali and Shepard for helping I would just get in the way in a lot of those places. Don't want to be useless like that and you were worried about if something did...you know happen and I were to get sick.

I'm not like them or Kal'Reegar in being able to survive in those places. Not sane for it either.

cheesemaster

Y'know, if you are that bothered by your grades and addiction? (How anyone could be addicted to the Internet 80s! Vlad would never know.) you probably should just let me go and we can both do our own thing. I'm a little busy myself...

And...you're going to reapp this...older me there again?

So...I really was only there for that one week...?

.....

So...me being there isn't going to happen again? I mean...an older me is coming back there, but...

Okay. I see.

fuhgottaboutit

Mun? ...... Why're you cryin'?

... Hey, it's okay. Sometimes I get stressed out too. It doesn't mean you're dumb, or slow or anything. I mean, I know you're pretty smart. Not as smart as Chiyo-chan, no way - but you're probably as smart as Sakaki or Yomi or somebody. Ain't gonna lie, I wish I could get grades like that.

Um... you know what I do, when I'm feelin' all burned up? I go home, and I go warm up under the kotatsu, and take a nap. And then when I wake up, I feel a lot better. In the winter, anyway. In the summer it's gotta be, like... the beach. But don't fall asleep in the water, or you'll probably drown.

.... Wait, you don't have a kotatsu? ... Well, in that case, I'm all out of ideas.

soloed

Since when did I become the top contender for this? Weren't you looking at wolf-lady just like a week ago? What about the guy with all the scars and the chip on his shoulder that would punch vampires repeatedly in the face or something? Why the sudden interest in me again?

I know, I'm nosy and speak my mind too much so hijinks could ensue, I get that. But you've put way more work into the others than me. Are you sure you really wanna consider going down this path? I mean, it took you nearly a whole day just to settle on my damn name. Fleshing out my whole story from the vague details you got's gonna take forever

I don't care if you would have the whole month to work it out, it just won't get done and we both know it.

kingofnightmares

You're slipping this into my canon? It was just a mere boy. Nothing more than that. I think it's ridiculous that you're considering such a thing.

And now you're watching Rex's canon? And you feel even worse about what I'm doing to him? You're only a few episodes in, how can you have such emotions--

You know what? No. This entire conversation is over. And don't bring up tidbits of my past ever again. There's a reason why I forgot it in the first place.

Do you not think that my life is complicated enough on the island without you wishing for my father and his wife to join Robb, Sansa and me? And is not simply cruelty to pray for Samwell as well? Or do you simply enjoying torturing me so?

[A pause as he raises his hand, shaking his head] Wait, I would rather you not to answer that.

[He huffs] Look, I know you miss her, and I do to. [His mun raises an eyebrow, and he sighs] And Ygritte as well. But do you truly have to take your frustrations on me?

I am so proud of you!

Remember: take notes! Ohhhhh, it isn't even the academic term yet!

You'll do great if you keep applying yourself like this!

nature_of_shadow

Yes... it was far too convenient for Kubo to be the killer, wasn't it? To give specifics about Mooroka's death, but dodging the questions for every other incident. However, I have to admit, there is one that has been in the 'right place' far too often. And far too free with information.

Yes, that's the one. I will say I commend Shirogane's courage, but I fear that the youngster is in over his head at the moment. The World of Shadow is a very unforgiving place. Had I not been extended the protection I now enjoy, my own demons would have claimed me long ago...

packalpha

... But why do you deny me? You tell me to be patient, and to wait and see how things unfold, but already I am stronger than I have ever been. Consider all I could be capable of to resist the dragons. To aid in the fight against Drathia.

Do not think I disregard the warnings of Mother and Oiá:ner. I know the dangers. Still, surely you must see that the benefits far outweigh the risks?

Think upon it.

headbanging

Headbanging? Really? You chose that?

[A brief pause, but then Morgan laughs cheerfully.] It is actually a little funny when you think about it! [Completely ignoring the fact that it's funny at her own expense.] I know that you're no Owain, but you could have at least tried to come up with a fancier username thing than the one Father got!

Oh, speaking of Father! Do you think I would be able to beat him in a pillow-fight? This place we're going sounds like a great opportunity to find out!

Nope! Not gonna hear about any o' that sorta behavior from me, that's for sure! Deeefinitely keepin' ta myself and not doin' anything qu-qu-que-questionable involvin' somebody's hands and somebody else's other parts!
