Hey, you.

So we're doing this song and dance again. ...It's been a while, hasn't it? You sure you're prepared? Hey, don't get me wrong, I'm interested in getting back out there! Just make sure you do a good job. If anyone's going to make me look bad, it should probably be me.

Loosen up a little. If waiting to hear back about applications is this gut-wrenching, waiting on a verdict would kill you!

piercedpainter

So you've decided that we're going back to that place huh? It's really be a long time since we left, six or seven months! Which is good I guess since not many people will remember things and things have had a chance to settle down now that you're done with classes. But a lot of things have changed too, haven't they?

Well it's not anything's changed for me, but everything else has.

Anyways, if you're going to do it though you really need to get on it. You only have three days left and there's someone waiting so don't be late.

eldestborn

Don't start. Not with the talk of vampires. I'm not answering to some psychotic vampire. Ever.

And stop with that back of your head idea about how helpful a place with no abilities would be. I would still be an addict. I would be addicted to something I can't have, and you think I'm the insane?

Now, that pretty little witch you thought about tossing me at, do it. I think I would have a good time trying to get her to give up her power, see how that holds me over.

adivergent

Are you serious? Do I look like I have time to play your little games? Let me answer that for you. I don't.

Let me get back to whatever it is I'll be doing. Yeah I know I won't find out until October, doesn't mean I want to be your puppet in a game. I still do have Tris.

[But you don't, not really Tobias.]

Technicalities. Also. Only Tris gets to call me that. And maybe you know, the parents. Well mom, not Marcus.

r4gn0r0k

O-of course I'm in! Why wouldn't the Saints want me? I'm a fucking genius! I'm doing them a favor.

[ Even if the Boss kicked his ass so hard that he swore off technology. ]

needsahand

Okay, look. I know you've got a thing for tall, green, and creepy, but would it kill ya to let me out every once in a while? You keep pissing and moaning about how my voice isn't strong enough and other crap like that, yet you rarely ever try to change any of that. Do you know how boring it is in that empty head of yours? Cut me some slack!

[Don't you mean "throw you a bone"?]

Shut up. I swear, you're almost as bad as Terumi.

musicianofvice

Sooo...congratulations, I suppose. You did it, you made up a nice little space here for me. And you didn't go with as embarrassing a moniker as what was passing through that colorful mind of yours.

Maybe one day I'll understand this whole thing. But till then, think you can find a joint where a cool cat can let loose on his sax with wild abandon and maybe earn a few honest dollars while he's at it?

A drink or two would never go amiss either.

Just keep the bright-eyed, bushy-tailed noodlefolk away from me for a while. I could use a vacation from any trouble, and I can tell you now, the brightest and bushiest always bring the storm.

burningmydread

You're way too excited over this event, mun. I'm uncertain enough about my sanity as it is, you don't need to make it worse.

It's bad enough you somehow managed to make my life even more of a goddamn mess than the "canon" me's. I know you have a reputation , but this is going too far. I know what you're planning and I don't like it. I hate it. I wouldn't care half as much about this if it wasn't going to put Gentaro and the others through hell, too.

Being your muse sucks. Next time you deliberately drive me insane - and I know you will, don't give me that look - you'd better not make my friends watch.

thirtycoins

Gastrovascular? What are you, daft? How in God's name am I supposed to know what that means? I didn't know when I was a child, and I've since had more important things to do than to find my soul in the pages of a dictionary. If that was even a dictionary; I've half a mind to believe Susan was actually pulling the word out of her — well. Out of nowhere.

[ pause. ]

All right, all right, my apologies, I don't mean to be — rude — but you know how much dealing with the fatal infliction of being a know-it-all grates at me.

[ some hidden insecurities there, Ed? ]

Silence, commoner. [ there may or may not be a hint of a grin on his face. ]

mybffhuey

Lady mundane, I don't know if you should do this... You need to really know what you want before you go with the decision. Being impulsive hasn't really done you any good yet...

Plus, you haven't been in a game for a while... Shouldn't you ease your way back into it?

"Go hard or go home?" W-Wait, go hard...?

[ Poor Florina ]

In any case - ! It looks like where you're looking, Serra is there. It's not, um, Lady Lyndis, but at least someone is better than no one. I'd be happy to see her again.

Speaking of which, milady, don't you need to work on finishing my game? I really hope you try to finish it soon, I don't want to be stuck on the Dread Isle for any longer...

With sincere hope for our endeavors,
Florina

hoodwinking

My, I see you've been busy lately! Those are a lot of icons you've made for me, even if you keep on wimping out on where you're going to put me next.

Of course you know, I won't accept you wasting your energy on making all these for me without actually using them! So you'd better figure out something soon, or I'll get angry. ♥

Mm, and I am getting a bit bored. If I'm going to go somewhere, please make up your mind soon. I don't want to stagnate up here, after all!

tempesting

Now -- wait a minute!one game, but now you want to send me to a second game? I think you'll stretch me thin if you do that, and I'm already really thin!

And I have seen the game you want to send me to and I don't like it. Look at what they're doing to the water and the sea creatures!

prolong

Look, I'm not the best person to be giving out advice, so I don't see why you're calling me out.

[he rubs the back of his neck awkwardly]

Can I go back now?

stehtvorgott

Nothing is ever gained from not trying at all, Mundane. We only expand ourselves and learn through trial and, if it happens, error. I know it is Lilin instinct to be apprehensive, but you will never truly live by remaining in fear.

........ And yes, I know I missed his birthday. It's... A shame that I wasn't able to give him a happy one.

zinthosmantra

Don't you think this is a little preemptive? You ignored me for almost two years and you're -- at best -- clumsy with my voice.

Besides, I don't appreciate your glee in plotting to send me to a place where even the people I know are actually strangers to me. I would rather have my real friends around.

purrinpumpkin

I dunno mun. It's kinda nice just staying in Death city where Blair knows everyone already.

Do you think there are any cute guys there? What about some tasty fish? A girl's gotta have her comforts, ya know.

rocked

Yeah, you're right; I don't have much of a voice to go on. Just a few lines here and there, and you have to work on making up more from that. Boo hoo; do you expect me to feel sorry for you? You did it once before, and you weren't completely dissatisfied with the result, even if it didn't last long. So figure it out quick, because you already put in the application, and I'm not going anywhere.

And while I'm waiting, I'm going to give you something else to think about. You like playing kids, because you like playing people who are growing up. But you also like playing people who die at this game in particular, and then leaving them dead instead of saving them. You've killed three kids like that so far.

So what does that make you, compared to me?

clearasil

Okay, hey. Me again. I'll never shut up and you know it so it's fine that you're not even fighting it.

Two games? That's ambitious. I'd be proud (because, like my "canon" isn't as popular as some of the others so it's cool to be represented and stuff), but I'm mostly worried that you're gonna crack one day from trying to balance them.

And thanks for signing me up for a quest. Really. I so appreciate that.

Current Music: & game: halfbloodhill

crushallbirds

It certainly seems to be making use of me lately. I would protest, but it at least seems to understand the importance of letting me destroy the hated sky-vermin and the joys of imagining various ways to squish the heads of those who irritate me.

Still, I'd think better of it if it let me actually squish heads. Surely one or two wouldn't be missed. There are so many empty heads around.

msthing

Mun, a hand touch...is just a hand touch. Don't look too much into it. For both our sakes.

equestrian_girl

It's good to see we're both relieved Spike can talk, it would've been just awful if he couldn't.

And it's also nice to have a proper motivation to travel dimensions, without the elements well...you know all the things who would love to sink their claws into Equestria...literally. Speaking of, I'm not looking forward to meeting my thief as much as you are.

[Begone leak; the power of Celestia compels you!]

abrasive

Well ain't this just goddamn peachy?

legendaryknight

You're quite the impulsive one, aren't you, mundane? You just listen to what you think. No, not even that, you're easily persuaded by others.

Oh, do they call it enabling? Well, either way, they can you convince quite easily. It's rather humorous, actually. You try your hardest to think about on it so much but once one exclaims "do it", the decision is set.

However, I do hope you make some use of me, as it would be slightly disappointing otherwise. Good luck, dear 'mun'.

immerrecht

Yeah, yeah. I know that already. I'm the most awesome thing on this planet. But don't let me stop you from praising me. Keep it coming.

Let me make this clear, I don't want those nonsense things, I want you to find a game for me, Ja? Not just any game, I want an awesome game, kesesese~

If you can find one with school girls I can boss around, the better.

Well? What are you waiting for? You're wasting my awesome time. Gimme a game, NOW!

shieldstar

[He has no idea what his mun has gotten him into, but he has had a guess or two. He's ready and rearing to go!]

Hehehehe. Just you watch I'm going to show that goddess a thing or two about kidnapping my friends! [She got you too, Black☆Star.]

She won't know what hit her! A big guy like me is going to be too much for her.

gardenprince

Mundane,

You pretend to understand who I am and to know my aspirations, but you are mistaken.

[ Uh huh. ]

You speak of wanting to join a game and meeting new people, but I won't be fooled. There is no exit from his garden. I refuse to allow you to offer false hope and then pull it away at the last moment. You are not even a god, merely a mortal. A disorganized mortal.

[ Yep. ]

That aside, do you even know where we would start?

[ Nope. ]

Just as I thought.

wonderbolt

So, let's get something straight.

You're sending me to some supernatural school where I can shift forms between this human one and the pegasus form so many know. And that I'll have my wings even as a human and hold an affinity for fire.

You want to put me in charge of kids.

I guess it's just like the academy, but I'd rather be teaching prospective fliers than kids trying to understand how their wings work.

Either way, glad you're getting me out there for once.

blitzkriegspitz

You know exactly what I'm going to say, I don't even need to use words this time.

[Raising his hand, Heine bent in the fingers surrounding his middle finger, promptly sticking it to his mun.]

I wouldn't have played by their rules anyway. I'm more trouble than its worth.

[Someone's glad he's not being sent to a certain game, but still non too pleased about possibly being shipped off to another place instead.]

Whatever, like I give a flying fuck. Just don't expect me to look excited.

allthelinks

It's okay that you can't think of a first person sample.

...

And I know that's why you're making me make this post. That's okay, too. Maybe people will still respond, even if you're being blatant about it.

koalas

Alright, stop there, I reckon I've got this figured out.

All your mates made a game you couldn't join where they're putting a ton of characters through emotional and physical torture. And Pom's there. And a rabbit is finally showing the world it's true colours by killing a shit ton of people and being creepy as all hell. So you saw all this turmoil and anguish involvin' different countries and your old mates and...

... it made you miss me.

You can go back to ignoring me now.

...My, my, my. I didn't think I was ever going to get out at the rate you were going--I suppose I should thank you for the chance to stretch my legs a little, hmm? It's the least I can do after all, miss mundane. You've been kind enough to give me shelter from people who might want revenge for what I was employed to do, and really, it's probably the best thing I can ask at this point.

I will have to ask you a few other favors for the time being, however! Could you be a dear and fetch me my bow and arrow? I've been idle for so long in here...I fear I may have lost my edge! And that simply won't do at all, lest I wish for everyone to go without for the night. That won't do, won't do at all. [Wagging her finger a bit.]

...And while your at it, settle just what happens in my life--I know you have ideas, so I figure that may be the easiest and most...ah, enjoyable job for you. Don't swaddle on either end, though.

Miss Mundane,

Thank you for your nice wishes and the time you spent on me today. All the jokes about 'middle aged' were not called for though.
No, I'm not being sensitive, this is just a matter of basic consideration. In life, you will always need to be able to differentiate which kind of relation allows which kind of informality.

I'm fine without any further celebration, don't trouble yourself. It's a day as any other in the end.

[A very pretty teen is sat on the floor, holding her teared stained face in despair.]

Look just... Leave it, okay? Neither of us wanted this.

[Mun finally took the dive and read the last book in the series. Nobody was happy about it.]

I don't need this right now. Just leave me alone.

gabriellightwood

Mundane...

Just what do you think you're doing?

Seriously. What are you going to do with me?

I don't really want to see that Will Herondale although I suppose that it may be of interest to find some of my other family members to discover what has become of the Lightwood name.

mindbomb

Where's the itsy bitsy spider at, hm?

Or even my dear father~ It's been so long since we had a proper reunion.

[A grin splits his face, a satisfied purr like noise bubbling up from his throat and mixes with a laugh near the end.]

You've had been cooped up in your head for too long, mun~ Things are bound to get ugly because I've been so so bored.

You should know better~

likewhatilike

What the fuck you doin'?

Look, I don't give a shit about the little game you wanna play with me but I ain't goin' and you can't make me. The killing and shit I can deal with, don't even need a fuckin' weapon and I'll be fine but I got things to do on the Southside, money to collect, you get?

[He thumbs his bottom lip and lets out a small 'heh']

The place you want me to go sounds just like home, I bet I'd win. Too bad I'm not fuckin' goin'.

Heyyyy, so you should probably finish reading the canon before you actually do anything with me. You know how loopy and tense you get when it comes to Marvel 616. It's not a good look on you. Trust me, I'm kind of an expert on hot angry chicks and when you're not scowling like that? You could be one of them.

I know you know what happens with mom (still weird as shit calling her mom but hey, if you've got it, flaunt it, right?). I know you know I know you know what happens with mom, just get there already.
You're going WaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too slow, it shouldn't take you this long to read seven comic book arcs. I could do that in my sleep.

Chop chop, hurry up, you know what they say in racist late night warner bros cartoons.

I feel as though I've said this before, though I can't reiterate it enough.

I don't need your pity.

I'll simply have to try harder to ...provide the sort of initiative that Lord Megatron desires. Soon I'll be back in his good datapads.

Soon.

Just you wait.

[Pause]

As for Knock Out, well. We did both think we were set to perish. I don't think I was unreasonable.

coneofsilence

So, within the realm of weird, scientific anomaly, twilight zone kind of bullshit that is now somehow the every day 9 to 5? Magical Island Turtle Afterlife Acid Trip is not really something I think I'm qualified to handle. This coming from the guy with several degrees, a grossly high national security level clearance, and the pyrokinetic brand of burned alive survivor status.

Try Liv.

This is a Liv thing.

Oh, you poor mundane,

I understand why you would want to write as me, and pretend that you want to be me. But I promise, being me is very difficult. My life is filled with tragedy and despair as well as love. My beauty and talent make me a target, don't you see?

You will be much happier being mundane. Pity me in my perfection, won't you please?

If only I could be as simple and plain and uninteresting as you, perhaps my life would not be fraught with such peril.

On the other hand, watching two hot guys make out is hot. And well, being the youngest ensign in star fleet does have it's advantages.

I'm off to a new adventure,

Ta ta!

Turn off the computer. Call it a night. If I wanted to talk about my spiral with you, I wouldn't be trying so hard to get you to stop.

Just because I can't tell what's real there doesn't mean I don't know what you're doing here. Trying to get inside our heads. My head. I can appreciate the irony, even if I don't like it.

You can stop this from being released, can't you? I refuse to be defamed in such a manner!

[... threatening to kill you, dissolving your empire and leaving you economically weak wasn't enough? This is where you draw the line?]

This is a travesty! The rest of the world will think my Boss is.... weird!

mrsjoebiden

Why is Dreamwidth RP right for me? ... Really, I can't think of a better place for me to be. Besides the Parks department. And also, the White House. So maybe it's the third best place for me to be.

There is a desperate, desperate need for organizing large groups of people in RP, and I have shown time and time again that I am organized and a people person. All you'd need to do is go to one of my public forums to see that. Just... if you go, try to stay on topic. We've had enough people asking about the raccoon problem this month, even though we devoted three whole forums to that already.

Does it matter that my player hasn't even finished the second season? Of course not! The people here need a leader, and I, Leslie Knope, elect myself to be the first President of Dreamwidth RP. Well, I'll cast a vote, anyway. I only get one vote.

iamlove

If you want to go on an adventure, I'd be glad to accompany you. But don't feel pressured to make it a huge destination, if you're not up to it. Even a trip to that box would be okay with me!

[dear, you do realize you are competing with your mun's renewed fascination for batman-]

A bat-man? Do you mean...a vampire? I can handle them just fine, don't worry!

infight

What do you want me to say? I'm not going to make a fuss about the canon point. A mindfuck's better than being written by Morrison. Unless you suddenly decide to send me off on another fun trip to the multiversal amusement park and Bruce shows up, none of that aftermath's gonna happen.

Plus, this place is infinitely better than spending more time with Rayner and Bob. Boring as hell, yeah. But it still beats the alternatives.

I think we have issues.
