Yes, fine.

If I must.

I'll tell her. I'll tell Tess everything.

( and a cut for them thar spoilers too )

always_north

Why do you take me away from my friends?

[That's a bit of a weird thing to say, even now, but he knows it to be true.]

They need me there. Our work is far from done.

renegadedriving

So. You submitted the application.

If I get partnered up with something soft and harmless, I am holding you fully responsible.

im_not_running

Kid, I appreciate the interest, but no thanks. I've got some important things to do and this.. is not one of them. Sorry to disappoint ya.

..Shouldn't you be, oh I don't know. In bed?

[No.]

No?

[No.]

Are you sure-- Oh... That look. I know that look.

proteusmoon

It's all right to miss people— and the past. It's all right to cry, and to hurt, and to allow yourself to feel sorrow. You are not betraying me. I know you keep it hidden, buried away, but I think that grave is shallower than you want to believe. I understand you are afraid of change— I know you don't want it to cause you any more pain, but this is not something you can stop.

People change. Friends drift apart. I've experienced it too in my own life. It is never an easy truth to accept, but that does not make it any less true. Perhaps it is a blessing. After all these years together, have we not learned that necessity does not make a friendship stronger? I will not say that losing the people we have has not left holes in my life that in all likelihood can never be repaired, but... even if you had forced yourself to remain in those situations, there is still no guarantee that I would not have these holes now.

You have always done your best by me. You never give up and you continue to try even when all things look bleak around us. I cannot tell you that I... that I enjoy the Tower, but I enjoy the friends we have made there. They are precious to me; I will endure every last horror our hosts subject us to in order to stay with them for as long as possible. I trust that you will work your hardest as well, like you always do, and I pray that you will always have the wisdom to tell when another will not be kind to you, no matter how freely you give your heart in friendship to them.

My counterpart and I will never truly leave you. Regardless of the years and the distance put between us because of other muses populating your head, we will never be silenced forever. You have our word.

thelaurenreed

I have been thinking, darling, and I have come to a conclusion.

Perhaps you are right, in some strange sense. Perhaps I should find a way not to be alone, join some sort of "game." Or perhaps a company. Maybe take up spying again. It's not like I have many other choices laid out before me, is it?

immunegenius

I am not sharing your headspace with Peter Hale.

mishyoona

You aren't too certain on the odds of that happening....

Well, either way, I'm hoping it works. ~~Seeing everyone again would be nice.~~..

mom_ler

Well, now. Looks like you finally got around to doin' that picture revamp thing you kept goin' on about. And it only took you a year! How about that.

You better not be thinkin' of playin' me anywhere, Mundane, y'know how I feel about gettin' put anywhere with monsters an' such. An' I got this nasty feelin' you'd drop me somewhere with that crazy child. You know how long you gotta wait for somene to grow up an' move out? An' let's not even get into what happened last time we saw each other. He ain't my son and I want nothin' to do with him from now on.

And stop that wishin' me a happy anniversary, sweetie. You know I never did care much for 'em, and a movie doesn't count. Besides, you're late by almost a month. I don't know that you even want to seem like you're tryin'.

Current Mood: bitchy

moarbracing

Mother of Moles, stop getting so worked up! If marriage is going to happen anyway, I would rather contract with someone I already know I get along with, instead of entering a random drawing.

And anyway, it doesn't change anything. Neither of us has property, and even if we were compatible, we couldn't have kids here.

...

...Stop crying.

Current Mood: aggravated

kawaii_boy

To be honest I think it's a little odd sharing a headspace with Mister Pegasus, but you promised you'd keep us in our separate rooms if there's going to be issues, right? So it should be okay...

[No one should get upset that way!]

Don't feel bad if you don't "get" my voice on the first try. Everything takes time and practice, or at least that's what Jii-chan taught me.

butgrandfather

Oh but I know you can do it! Give it another try, won't you? You'll see -- our adventures are wonderful, just wonderful!

You need fewer distractions, that's all.

mmorstan

I am just as uncertain about this piece of news as you are, dear.

raisedroyal

I see. You're considering a "canon update" for myself in exchange for one of the alternate scenarios you like so much.

To be honest, I'm not certain I wish to accept your proposition. While I understand there are multiple futures, it doesn't seem right to decide such things without first consulting the other parties in question! Suppose this other version of myself doesn't wish to be taken out of the timeline she's always known and placed into another? Perhaps she would prefer to make her own choice.

Of course I understand there must come a time for me to move forward with my life, but with all that has happened I...

trust_blizz

[There is a very confused looking Jawa looking around.]

Blizz don't understand? Why is Blizz here? Blizz wanna be with Boss and make stuff and scavenge!

Ooh! Does Blizz get to meet a Boss here! That would make Blizz very happy! Then Blizz be able to be back on ship and making it work and do other stuff!

kamichika

...there's no one who would look forward to seeing me.

So... why bother?

seenaghost

So basically you're going to send me into a place where the strongest and smartest survive. Me, the walking talking stick who never went to college. I mean, I've known you were cruel since the first version of my story so I'm not surprised now, but this is kind of above and beyond, you know? I've got one skill and that's dealing with spirits, and I'm pretty sure even if they let me keep my candles and matches and shit those wouldn't work too well against a sword or whatever else the others'll have. Or a ninja turtle. Pretty sure I couldn't take a ninja turtle in a fight, just a guess.

This is just a super bad idea if you want me to not turn into hamburger meat at the beginning of every arena, is what I'm saying. They won't even let me keep my protection stones, what the hell am I supposed to do without them? Find a bigger stone and hide under it until I get inevitably crushed to death by it? I mean come on. Really.

Not impressed,

Sebastian Jasvinder Poe

tali_in_da_keelah

Dear Mun...

I want to make things clear, and for anyone who reads this...Keelah, that would be so embarassing...That, this screen name you chose is wrong on so many levels, it's not even funny.
Keelah...Means "By the Homeworld"...So, what you are saying is, I am "In the by the homeworld". It doesn't make sense. You don't make sense. And that means I don't make sense, Mun.
...
Oh I see...I get it now...Like, "In the house"...hiz-house...Tali in the house....Tali'Zorah all up in this...That is clever, Mun.
Why must you make me sound like some sort of mini-skirt wearing hoochie? Tali'Zorah is NOT how you pronounce Miranda.

Current Mood: annoyed

chemistryinmotion

... Haven't we done the whole weird animal partner thing already? I don't even know what a digimon is. At least I knew what a pokemon was.

Besides, I thought you were gonna send me somewhere with Rob, what's up with that?

ax_effect

Now I'm not getting on your case about it, but you seriously took your sweet ass time making my account and all. Oh, and the name? Horrible. Like something I'd come up with, only a little less funny.

And I lied, I am getting on your case about it. Stop slacking, stow the 'I'm too busy for more tags. herpderp.' line and sack up. Copy that?

What do you mean you don't know military talk? Everyone does! Watch a few army movies, you'll get it down pat. I'm not calling you Pat by the way. That's more-

You know what, never mind.

betrayalcutsdeep

How long ago was it that I showed up here and I'm just now getting a journal? Well, I suppose it's better late than never...even if I have had nothing to do but listen to the Commander's nonsense. The others...haven't exactly been welcoming, you know. But I suppose I can't blame them, given their opinion of my organization.

But that's not what I'm here about. To tell the truth, I would have been content to wait longer than this. It's not often I get to relax for so long, after all. No, this is about what happened when you did bring me out. You knew how I felt about talking to Shion...why did you show the link to her mun?

...Poetic justice is it? My price for hiding...but this just confirmed that I was right. It was best that she not know. She never would have accepted it, not after what happened on Miltia.

And about your insistence on not doing anything with me...I don't entirely mind keeping to memes, but I would appreciate having something to keep me occupied every now and then. I can only sleep so much.

sealkun

It doesn't sound as bad as you keep making it out to be.

So I guess I'm Makoto now?

At least you're not throwing a fit about it. "Better than Gettarou" indeed, if you're not making it a big deal.

... What do you mean I share a name with a porn star?

[ It's true! ]

google_chrom

Mundane,

I don't understand your fascination of leaving me in an "elevator" with a complete stranger.

I prefer not to entertain these kinds of thoughts.

Please, mundane.

scratchings

Hey, Kid, I know you're pretty fond of me -- hey, I'm pretty fond of me, too -- but that doesn't mean you have to send me to any of these games (although your games are pretty tame compared to what I've seen).

The thought is nice, though. Thanks for still thinking of me.

lyingliarwholies

Marriage??

But I'm not even in the game yet and you want me to get married?!

T-To Cyclonus?!?!

[Mun you need to slow down like WHOA. Tailgate is pretty sure there are a few steps in between having Cyclonus barely tolerate him and marriage. It's going to be stupidly awkward when all of this is over and done with.]

stitchedupbodyguard

Well, now that the invasion is over with, everything will be okay right?

...

What do you mean marriage?

willbegone

My dear mundane, I suspect that this is becoming a pattern with you.

Can you not leave me to my own devices? If you are determined to pursue this course of action and to ignore my wishes, then I suppose I must resign myself to the inevitable.

And yet I must make one more attempt. I do hope you will reconsider, even so.

nefertiri

You have no right to treat me like some sort of fictional creation! I am as real as you and I have gone through things you could never imagine!

( ...really? )

Who told you about the Scorpion King or Imhotep? We haven't even settled on a story that won't throw the masses into a panic. ( She bites the inside of her lower lip, frowning. ) I never saw you anywhere near that pyramid and I think I would have noticed you.

( Thanks, Evie. )

I don't mean that in a derogatory way! You are much paler than the usual Egyptian - or any Egyptians for that matter. Do you have any Egyptian blood in you?

( I wish. )

I thought not. Regardless, my point stands. You weren't at the pyramid so there is no way you could have seen the events for yourself. Which leaves...

Who have you spoken to? Jonathan?

senoritaamerica

Ay, chica. Aren't you moving on, like, tomorrow morning? You should be packing, not playing around on your computer making little pictures of me. What, you want me to be flattered? Just do what you're supposed to do and let me get back to doing what I'm supposed to do. Kicking ass.

colder

You knew this would happen from the outset. Be thankful I survived; you needn't concern yourself with anything more.

...Particularly 'ships'. You understand that my--[spark what would he even call it? A romantic life?]--my personal affairs are none of your business. Cease.

As for the poor way this 'Barber' interprets morality, I should think by now you ought to be well used to that.

onionprincess

Ooh, mun! I'm so glad you're letting me talk and stretch my legs a bit--especially since your headspace is way too cramped--but shouldn't you be doing those tag things? Really, if you goof off like this and end up messing things up for my Utena, don't think I'll take it lightly! Wakaba has to look out for her love, you know!

Do you think I might see any other Utenas here? Oh, the very thought makes me so happy. Multiple Utenas! It's like a girl's dream come true, don't you think? It might be a challenge, but I'll be sure to prepare lunches for all of them!

--what, don't believe me? Ohhh, you're so silly, mun! You should know that a fair maiden's love and determination knows no limit!

detoxes

Well good job getting those tickets. There's no turning back now. Yeah sure - it was a gift card - but you wouldn't want to waste twenty bucks of anything by not showing up. Let's be real here.

sunnylocks

Mother didn't believe me.... She thought I was just making Mr Sandman up...

[sighs]

I know him, Santa, Tooth Fairy, and the Easter Bunny are real... Mr Sandman told me and he was very nice.

deadguysjr

Hey there, munny. This your brain? Nice and roomy place when you're not paying attention to the other muses. I bet I could get used to this--I mean, my only other option is dealing with the boy's dormitory or a house with Lily and Al in it, yeah? I mean, not too much going on up here in comparison. [He'll just knock on the inside of his mun's skull. Ow. Headache.]

Can't say I like the username too much, but hey, I'm not a picky man. I got the cool names anyway. Both my namesakes come from Gryffindor. [He looks around for Albus to make more pointed remarks at, but damn. He's missing his little brother at the moment.]

Hmph. Well, I guess I'll repeat myself when Al's around. Anyway, what're you planning, anyway? Just to have me running around your skull? 'Cuz I can't see that ending well; I get bored pretty easily, you see. And when I'm bored, I can usually convince my uncle to let me take a few fireworks from the store. I mean, it's a travesty for anyone related to...

[Pause. Sudden change of thought.]

Hey, if Teddy marries Victoire, that makes all the Marauders related, right? [No, because Peter Pettigrew--] All the Marauders that matter?

unidentifiedandfantastic

That's such a hilariously brilliant idea.

Now we just need to make sure it happens, hm? All that's missing is that tengu girl. I'm sure she'd want in if she were here.

extraordinarily

Hey, mun!

What's your problem? It's not true that Kyon's going to disappear like that, right? I mean, things like that only happen in dreams or in video games where you get the 'bad end' because you messed up. So stop your crying already!

It's not even real.

Hey, are you even listening?!

psy_phi

So, it's finally come to this. To be honest, I thought you were bluffing, given that you took your sweet time to get your act together.

Don't get me wrong. It's not like I was looking forward to being sent to yet another game that I have no say in playing. It doesn't matter where I go; my answer will be the same. I have more important things to be doing, and you know it.

Still, it seems you've made up your mind. I might as well go along with it if I have no choice in the matter, anyway. The least you can do is do it right.

Alia iacta est. You've made your choice. Now let us watch how the dice fall.

[Homeless, but Animus is the leading possibility.]

disfordrill

So...

There's a point ta all this, yeah? Cause you don't know from nothing about me. I mean I'm a busy gal and really Mun I don't got time for this.

Not like I'm even any sorta canon, and ya just know that when they give ya more I'm gonna be all wrong, if the old man even had any Becile girls around.

Just don't come cryin' t'me when it happens cause I already said you're all wet and I'm not in the business of repeating myself.

[Aww but D, you'll have fun!]

Get off it, why don't ya? Scram!

winterinlordaeron

Mundane, there's no need to worry so much...I'm sure things will be fine. Just try to focus on the task at hand- a bit of discipline will serve you well.

...no putting off your studies, either. I know well enough that you can study all you want and still run yourself into a corner like you did tonight. You're going to need to learn to think on your feet, but I know it's not easy. Trust in your friends a bit more, there's no need to be so scared.

I have faith in you.

brentwood

It's not that I don't appreciate all of this attention I'm getting from you lately (it's definitely better than being cooped up and doing nothing all the time) but your way of handling muses isn't exactly...

appealing.

For one thing, you haven't been able to keep me in a conversation long enough to tell me you're confident with what you're doing. For another, there's... that other guy in here. I know what you have planned for him. It's not painting a pretty picture for what I can expect of you. And I know you keep saying you'll go light on me, and I really would like to explore the Digital World. [Words literally cannot say how much he'd like to geek over it.]

But you haven't even started the application. Are you sure we're going to do this?

cherryslush

I've got two words for you, mundane: Jet Steele.

icebutnice

Uh, well it's nice that you like me and all. Good to know that someone does.

Am I going to stay here long? I really should get back to Marcy. She worries herself sick sometimes.

willas_tyrell

I had always though of Oberyn Martell as a friend of sorts, despite the rest of my families estimation of him. I don't blame him for what happened at the tourney. I was as green as our banner, and I could have used some more seasoning before entering in a joust.

He struck a clean blow, and I fell. What happened after that was not his fault. Although I was not conscious for it, he even sent a maester to help save my leg.

I'm sorry to hear of his death, but perhaps he can find some peace. I understand Gregor Clegane will be following soon after him.

abelminded

...Are you thinking about taking me somewhere again?

It's already over, so don't waste my time. There's nothing left, especially not in a place like that...

gigglesnortpriestess

I don't collect anyone!

[Yukiko, sweetie, look at the games. It's true.]

You're making it sound strange!

Please don't finish that!

I honestly don't understand what you're expecting out of this.

[Way to be nondescript, Sir.]

Okay, you got me. Maybe, just maybe, I'm starting to see the appeal of UltraRecycloVegetarianism.

But don't tell Sam I said that!

Oh!!!

Why do you have to look at those issues? I am so fat in those issues! [ She spreads her fingers and peeks through them. ] I know that is just Cerdian, and I love my baby, I really do, but I just looked so -- ughh!!

hamburgerhero

What do you mean my account name makes you think of Hamburger Helper?

_{Hamburger Helper is good stuff but...}

First you change my name because of the movie, and now you want to send me to that tower.

What about what I want? I -- I want to see him, but not like this. It's not fair.

svartalf

You say that I shall attempt to slay Princes Thor and Loki? Preposterous. Whatever lingering feelings I may have regarding the death of my people, they are but children. They have been like my own sons over the years.

none_of_your_crap

Yes, that version of me did it all to get you to like him. Is that what you want to hear? I don't care if you like 'me' or not, but if I'm to be stuck as your 'muse' then I suppose I'll have to take what I can get.

steady_flame

I think you're being somewhat cruel, and alarmingly so. Please don't blame me for denying Will of this allowance. You know I want them to join Will and me, just as much as he does.

You also know that I wouldn't wish my own personal brand of Hell on anyone else... Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemies. Let alone those people I love the most.

Please reconsider.

thenameisbatty

Excuse me. EXCUSE ME.

Human. You haven't spoken to me in two-- THREE years. Why the sudden interest, hm? You watched a review, and you just happened to find me again?

[The contraption in his head shocks him for a moment, in which he flinches furiously before he relaxes, as if nothing happened. He puffs up his batty chest.]

You humans are all the same. So flighty.

desirable

... God has truly abandoned Cesare and I, hasn't he?

However, if you permit your whim to play me as I now am, then you will find new and more appropriate icons. I am an innocent no longer, Mundane. You yourself should know this. I will not be perceived as a child.

I think we have issues.
