May. 21st, 2013

... you're calling this an inter-net? If this place was made out of net, surely it would be a little less solid than it seems to be? I'd be able to see through it. I can't. Are you sure that's right? Or is this another one of those wonderful inventions of yours?

But I'm happy to be here! I know it'll be a while until you can get me into a game, you do have so much to do, but I'll be fine!

I do have one more question, though...

What does 'let's play' mean if you're not actually playing anything? You were watching Minato (why do you call him all those other names, too?) walking around - that doesn't seem like a game to me! He never mentioned wanting to play...

skullfudgingmotherfunker

Oh, oh that is brilliant it is, just absolutely lovely. Call me oldfashioned but "notahothead", or "garciadontdothething"? Nothing wrong with those names! First one's nice and subtle, invites intrigue and all that, second one's a bit on the nose but no less suitable, I'd say. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, I was the brains of that little excursion, like a far more handy and capable Jiminy Cricket to G's merrily stumbling little Pinnochio. Him all flailing legs and "oh what happens if I follow the nice coachlady into Juvenile Molestation Mountain" and me all "no G that is very dumb and you will see queasy things and I will see queasy things and then I'll want to vomit but I can't because, you know, flaming skull" aand then we went there anyway but I stuck by his side, nice bloke that I am, and in the end we meet our Blue Fairy and...

... Well. Found our way home, is all I suppose I can say lest we invoke the spoiler-hating ire of the internet. And I guess it could be worse... at least you didn't go with "penisjokingly".

firstdoctor

None of that has even happened to yet, you're aware of that. Right? Not even her so I just...calm down. You're worse you know who after he's spent four days in the library alone.

I'll admit it was..troubling. The news. The idea. It was'nt...what I'd call an appealing end to it all.

Or you know. him at the end.

Just troubling.

authorisation

Maam, I don't think you should think about sending me to a game when you still have your hands full. [ but phil! supernanny in pleasantville-- ] Please don't call me that. I hate that nickname. And besides, you still have to "voicetest" me, seeing as you're slowly losing your grasp on that one fella you got in a game.

reactivate

You want to me to... what? But that world seems so different, and I won't know anyone there. This isn't like traveling for a show, and we're in the middle of a war right now, Miss Mundane. I have to help the Shepherds as much as they've helped me. I know I am not as helpful and nowhere near as important as the others, but I'd like to make things a little easier for them.

I don't want to question your motives, as you've been kind to me, but I would like to know why you reached this decision to send me to such a place.

potatomasher

Listen!

It's time you make up your mind! If you want to find a place for one of us again, then do so. If you don't know if you can manage the responsibilities of being part of one of those games anymore, then stop pondering the option of joining one. The decision is yours to make, mundane, but do us all a favor and just make one already! Dwelling on possibilities without acting is not an efficient way of spending your time.

That is all.

hamsterchaoslord

You assumed I would not make it? Fuahaha! Mundane, you are incredibly dull witted! As if they would risk losing a place In My New World Order by refusing my entry!

Soon all of them shall be under my thumb, Mundane! Fear not, for my fist is not iron... Bloodshed shall only take place if I am opposed! Soon, Mundane, soon...

...

I only wish you hadn't chosen somewhere so terribly sad...

greenbloodedhobgoblin

While I find it admirable that you have faith in yourself to play this role, your chances of success are minimal. You may first want to decide which 'Spock' you prefer before jumping to conclusions, Mundane.

I am estimating that there is a 99% chance that you will stay in this indecisive state, as you always do, until you see fit to find me a new place of residence.

[Spock is quiet for a moment, more than happy to listen to his Mundane complain but he's not going to offer her sympathy. That's not what Vulcans do.]

As you are technically the Captain of my mind, I would advise that you brush up on old Star Trek material to get a better grasp of my mannerisms. No, I will not say that I wish to be dropped so soon. That would be highly illogical and most detrimental for both parties.

Simply watch the old series and the movies again. I am more than confident in your capabilities to accomplish that much. After all, are you not on that human vacation from the Academy referred to as 'summer'?

bloodyhowling

I don't want to go to a game. You're mean, mun.

[....]

I'm not going anywhere; I don't care what you say. W..What do you mean it doesn't matter what I think?

Ugh! I hate all of you!

deathboss

Mun-babe,

Look! I'm really glad that Miyabi is here with me in the city and that that a man as beautiful, charming and amazing as myself gets to enjoy being with her and my friends a little longer. Despite the hardships, I couldn't be happier. but...

Did you really need to switch memories with a magical girl because you thought it would suit me? Imagine Michel, without his social skills, and a loner! I'm not saying that this Hoshi babe isn't a fine girl, but I'm made for stage life, and magical girls aside, I don't even mind showing a little leg. But, I don't want to destroy my band and singing career before it even begins proper in Hinoto-Ri!

[What singing career?]

fakerette

Honestly... All this hesitation is bothersome. If you want to make a decision, don't dance around it. Just do it.

Are you going to put me in a game or not? This is your current predicament, is it not? First, you must find out if there are games that accept AU versions of characters. Secondly, you should decide if you're really up to playing in a game again. As I recall, your inspiration tends to run dry at random intervals.

[ Shrugs her shoulders. ]

Wouldn't it be easier to busy yourself with Open Memes or Muse Boxes? How about those Dressing Rooms that one Shadow mentioned? Or are those now a rare breed? Surely there are many options available. A game requires more time and effort and I doubt you have either with your current job.

[ Shakes her head. ] Velocity may be more adamant about being in a game, but I am not. I may not like having my time wasted, but I can see it being so if you dropped me somewhere without properly thinking about it.

Current Mood: annoyed

larks

Thank you for this AU, mun. I realize that that my canon self gets more attention these days since you've put me in a game and all, but -- oh, to meet Marius this way is a thrill, truly.

When will you send us off on an adventure? I would very much like to try my hand at a bow and arrow, if you will let me. [ She'll probably try her hand at archery regardless of what the mun has to say about it. ]

jailed

I am not permanently stored on a floppy disk.

notgodswill

The afterlife? Despite part of me being skeptical about the reality of something like that, I really can't say I mind your enthusiasm. It's not like I don't belong, right? I certainly don't plan on just accepting death and disappearing so easily considering all the work I put into my plans. A real detective has to see everything through to the end.

And besides, you know I wouldn't turn down the chance to be near Yukiteru. Plus it would be easier to watch him without that person around.
Just know that you've got my full support.

failedhullabaloo

Oh, so you finally come back to me? Swan off and leave me behind, but now suddenly you're all interested again. Because of what, some years-old story you read again last night? And you think I'll just go along with it?

Fine, but don't think I'll be going along with it if you decide a game'd be a lark, I've had quite enough of those, thank you.

It's not as if my Doctor's easy to find, anyway. The new ones are all skinny and wearin' suits and what-have-you, and it's downright weird.

ofdrumsthesound

Seriously, mun, I would pay you money if I had any to get that bloody "Yellow Submarine" out of your head. You only remember three or four words of it anyway, it's driving me mad!

Well, madder.

all_onis_are_true

You know, if you're really that tired of watching people on that Tumblr page talk about how something from that Titan show looks like the Oni like they're so original, maybe you should, I don't know, stop following Tumblr?

Just a thought.

reginleif

I realize I'm in need of a much needed... break, as you call it, after helping to save the world and restoring Renais.

But where would I go and what would you have me do, mundane?

cheatingly

You need to stop worrying so much and trust me. Would I mislead you?

Don't answer that.

I'm not the of person to sit around and wait for things to happen, and I'm not going to let you get away with that. The company's great, but you know what happens when I get restless.

Another thing -

( Read more... )

princeandwizard

For wanting to deny me entry yesterday, you seem to be having a lot of fun. I do appreciate you letting me stay after all, Mundane-san.

Or... are you perhaps letting me stay because of Wizard?

[He'll just smile while the mun casually coughs into her fist. Your adorable angel has got nothing to do with this, Mihara!]

herocomplex

What'ya mean "why is it my head space is always filled with conceited assholes?"
Okay, sure, sure. I agree with you there! That red-head is pretty self centered and so is that jungle kid, in a different, round-about sort of way, even if he can shoot a good gun with me.
Me, though? Hahahaha, hell no! It's justified conceitedness! Ever heard of it? Probably not, I just made it up. Give it a rest, alright? I'm gonna make a Wiki page about it ASAP!
I have every reason to be this way, so don't be all hesitant and crap to play me just because I'm evidently "just another asshole!" If you're feeling that way, might as well weed out some other insignificant muses. At least France isn't here anymore, that's one douche down to clear up your thoughts. I haven't seen England either! Haha, hey, look, another one down!

In any case, you don't have any reason to just sort of leave me in the dust for a bit, ahha. It's about time you noticed me. How can you not notice me?

So what is going on now?
We're not going back to that space place.. right?

...
......
........

Right?

misterknife

Let me begin by saying that I look forward to working with you, dear girl. I'm sure it'll be a delight and a pleasure. [He doffs his hat.]

I must add now I've had a look about the place that I think you and I will get on famously. Wouldn't want you to think me a boor, but I do like my privacy and free time, you see. And I'm given to understand I'll have ample of both in your company. Splendid, really, a touch on the flattering side. Couldn't have asked for better.

Now, to be serious for a moment… I've also heard tell you find my proclivities a bit– what was the word. Ah. Yes, a shade, well, unsettling. Frightful shame; I do detest finding a lady's ill favour. But you've chosen to soldier on all the same. Marks to you, my girl. You shan't be disappointed. After all… I see my jobs through to the end. Unlike some less reputable riff-raff I needn't mention by name.

So! First on the agenda: dinner, some fine drink, and a few girls to keep me warm.

Obviously not you, milady. I've some shred of propriety left.

sassiopath

Much as I adore my time with a certain ~~strawberry~~ blonde, and don't want those things to change...

I'm glad you're finding other verses for me where I can remind certain ~~nephews~~ people how not prepared they are to do things without me.

heartmaestro

...nostalgia can be a dangerous thing at times. [ A headtilt. ] Are you affected by it? Perhaps I could play you a song. Would you like something by Tartini? Příhoda?

[ A pause. ]

I have one request, though. If you ever plan on bringing me to another...environment, I would prefer to have no memories of my previous experiences. There are some things time cannot get rid of, as the saying goes.

deltaquadrant

Fascinating. Absolutely astonishing. That there could be so many worlds within breathing distance of one another, so close they might rub elbows and never even know it - and to think that it's possible to interact with these worlds, to explore and to be a part of them.

I am quite interested, though, in your theory about the quantum states of consciousness. Something very similar was proposed in the 21st century, as an addendum to the theory of infinite universes, but I'm not sure I've ever heard it quite put this way. Consciousness itself not only in multiple universes, but a function of multiple universes - the brain acting as a sort of quantum computer, in flux between different projecting states at any given time. The greater the imagination, the further in between the universes the mind can reach, touch, and understand.

It has a lot of romance to it, that I'll admit.

Well, I would be happy to be quantum-entangled with you. "Control" is such a fuzzy concept in times like this, isn't it?

[ ooc | new muse on rewatch of Voyager, be gentle! ]

gracefally

Of course. ( She closes her eyes and smiles gently, ) Everyone will come together again.

And I believe that we can all be happy too.

epicandsocool

Well, hey there, Miss Mun. I, uh, see you're lookin' at some games there.

...tell you what, how about we lay out some ground rules. Now, I don't know where you got this idea that I'd be "great at horror games", 'cause let me tell you - hey. Hey, get away from there. That ain't funny.

Are you listening to me?

rufure

A place with no wars, no life-threatening futures and a chance to live a peaceful life?

There's a catch, isn't there? [ A light laugh leaves her mouth. ] I'm just saying; with you there's always some kind of catch involved. So, lay it on me.

[ There's a small pause. ]

A new spouse isn't something I want, you know. Unless you've forgotten, I'm already married! But, I don't want to leave him in an unfamiliar place...

[ It's a hard decision, ok?! If mun had a kid, she would understand. In the end, Robin sighs and offers a smile. ] I don't really have much of a choice, do I? For once, I'm not the one in charge here. I just hope we both don't regret this too much.

luckysmile

Drama Drama Duck?

[ A strange look appears on Sawako's face. Her eyes are narrowed and she's staring up. Perhaps it looks like she's observing something the realms of regular human eyes cannot see... Maybe there's some kind of ghost around.

Really, she's just trying to figure out why that sounds like really cute, fuzzy ducklings are acting out Shakespeare. It's so cute..

But, would she really do well in a game like that? ]

Mun, you said a lot of different types of people without many friends have been ending up there lately?

[ It might sound like she's making a comment on the mass numbers of friendless losers there, but really she's just.. excited. If people like that have been able to make friends, then maybe.. Maybe she could too. Maybe she could fit in and sit next to someone and be able to see them happy because she said hello to them. She knew what it was like to be lonely, so if she could say "Hello" and they could just say it back...

Of course, her expression right now doesn't really reflect this sentiment. ]

thepointisdolphins

Now now, miss. I know you're taken with me--perfectly understandable--but I'm really not interested in one of these "games" of yours. Just averted Armageddon, didn't I? Think I deserve a break after all that mess. A whole lot of liquor, maybe a few decades of sleep, some R&R, you know? You haven't even finished your canon review yet.

And you won't lure me out my mentioning a certain gent who took my name. Never you mind about him.

lucanus

Surely you knew beforehand that you should not expect to hear much from me, woman. I won't have you send me to one of these "games" either.

....

I have nothing more to say to you, away from me.

bickered

Are you sure? If you send me to that place with Uriel-sama...

We both know what would happen, right?

ichoosefight

You know, it really worries me when you get that glint in your eye. Even more so when it happens in this place. You know I can't do anything about it, why won't you give me at least a little hint?

...How about a hint that doesn't involve talking to a time-traveling, pyromaniac, mythical bird?

Yes I know phoenixes aren't pyromaniacs but seriously, the whole freaking lighthouse was on fire I'm not just going to let that go.

I'm really not going to like how this ends, am I.

aftermyfuzzyfur

What? I thought I made a veeeery beautiful Alice! Naoto-chan did a great job at making me look pretty, mun-chan!

Oooh. I get it now...Yes! I know bear-y well why you're laughing. You just jealous that I made such a beautiful lady! Not to worry! You're ver- Uh mun-chan? Why are you looking at me like that?

hatesgoodbyes

A magic castle?

What the hell are you on, cause I'd really like to have some.

Do you seriously have half the app finished already? You wrote it as a 'exercise in character voice?' What the fuck are you? Some kind of stalker?

queenoftherock

Mun, look, being stranded, while thrilling as it might be, isn't really something I'm particularly looking forward to these days. Don't even tell me that an island isn't the same thing as that place because, believe me, I know stranded when I see it.

And I have no idea how you plan on dragging other people with me to that place, but if you pull it off... I might even be impressed.

awfulsentimetal

I can hear you chucklin' to yourself. It's not friendly chucklin', either.

[Eyeballing you so hard young lady.]

What are you planning and why do I get the feelin' I'm gonna like it less than Rabbit likes gettin' repairs?

grandesoeur

"Cougar?" In what way am I like a wild cat? Unless it is a reference to my natural grace...? I can be rather cat-like when I must.

captains

There isn't anything I'd like to talk about less, than that movie.

[It's probably the most irrelevant bit of information for his entire life, oh my god]

Let's talk about the Prime Directive. Ignoring it, well, we've seen how well that works out for me. So your bright idea? Drop me somewhere where temporal warfare is the whole point. And then you go and get Bones dragged in along for the ride.

[Which, yeah going through hell with his best friend, easier than going without. But it's not conductive to Bones' continued life span, you dick]

I think I've been pretty cooperative, up until now. Right up until they started messing with things they don't understand, and got a home world destroyed.

It's like- [Watching Vulcan all over again, and he knows that keenly. Still remembers how it felt] A no win.

And I can't do that. [Can't live that a third time. Can't turn a blind eye and refuse to help because it's the safest, protocol defined option. Can't try to help and realize it doesn't matter, know that he could have done something that'll have an even bigger ripple on the timelines-

It's where he draws the line. Throws in the towel and backs off]

bigbooks

And I most humbly volunteer!

[Michelle brings her hands up in front of her face earnestly, as if in prayer.]

Oh please, please let me! I know you're considering it, and I really want to go! You saw how positively adorable so many of the potential residents will be... [She sighs dreamily at the idea of cuddling so many cuties.] I may even find a rare book to bring home to my sisters!

[Not that she'll ever be able to go home to her sisters...but that's news best broken to her gently.]

fandancing

I think I've really got it this time! It took a few tries, but... this time for sure! It's the perfect omelet.

Shrimp and paprika are both great so if I put them in an omelet...

Oh, and I added a few other ingredients but I can't remember what they were now. I'm sure they'll help. They'll be tons of flavor this time!

misappropriation

I dunno, munnie. It's been a while. You're playing all those fancy superheroes now! You can't just drop in and expect to put me somewhere!

YRP has lots of adventures to plan. Spheres to get! We're still Gullwings, after all!

And you can't bribe me with anything shiny, either! Unless it's something I don't have.

ohforcryingoutloud

Well, it certainly has been some time, hasn't it?

I'm retired, you know.

Again.

leg_fu

My thanks for what you call 'paid time'. Too bad it doesn't mean anything when it comes to real cash.

From the looks of it, mundane, you almost want something to do with me. Another game? I like games. Deny it all you like, but you want me in a game.

You won't like me so much if you keep my locked up for so long...I get antsy...might even hurt a few of your favorite muses. When you're locked up for so long, anything is game.

...one more thing. That is not a tank top. Let's cut the 'juicy' tank top talk before I cut something else.

fraterminor

Well, now, it has been some time now, hasn't it, dear Miss Mun? Years, in fact. Don't you think it's a touch presumptuous of you to come knocking on my door at this hour? You don't call, you don't write... perhaps I've moved on.

Then again, I suppose if you could find some way to entertain me, I might be persuaded to acquiesce. You know how I love my little diversions, my dear. If you can find me a home with plenty of warm bodies and no sign of brother dear, I'll play along.

I think we have issues.
