Jun. 21st, 2013

Considering that delightful preview of coming attractions you decided to give me--there's a reason habitual time travelers usually aren't pleasant people, you realize--I'm less resistant to the idea of being plucked from my universe and dropped into one that runs on the whims of bored college students than I otherwise would be, but that certainly doesn't make me enthusiastic.

gempath

[She always was the quiet one, it's amazing she'd turned up again after all of this time. But with so many Star Trek muses about, how could she not be curious about them? Certainly they were younger but her friends must be among them. The one with the yellow shirt who spoke kindly, the man with the pointed ears who cared more than he showed, and her favorite who carries a medical bag who tried to give his life for his friends.

Gem would like to see them again. Even if they did not remember her yet.]

herpestidae

I don't know how, either. I guess we'll all see come next year.

stoodbyhim

You - You - I have no words. You -

What's he going to say when he gets back to Storybrooke, hmm?

He trusted me with it - and now Cora has it and two people are dead and David has a concussion from trying to protect us.

We'll get it back though. I won't let him down.

((Deets in profile for the curious))

godelsolution

Let me just say, you have got some strange ideas. First "Skynet body horror", and now this? I'm sure it would be good if I met nice people. There are nice people here!

bouts

So. This is what y' do when you've liked a movie, huh?

[ Though Julian seems to consider saying more on the subject, he shrugs instead, a gesture that says it's no skin off his back, no matter what happens. Undoubtedly, he's been through worse. ]

Could be fun.

coilsofthedragonserpent

Dear mundane,

Let me make sure I got this right. Not only did I just score an observer, but I may also get to mutilate and kill some of his little friends when he goes and spills the beans I told him to keep locked up tight?

Hehehehehehe. I really don't see a downside to this. In fact, I think this is going to go perfectly according to plan. Sure, I may be put on a watch list but it isn't like that would be bad. Let them all keep a nice strong gaze on me. The more the merrier. Poor fools.

And if any of them hate me, that would just be icing on this cake. And no Ragna or damn bloodsuckers in sight who can educate the little fuckers. Plus if I can pick up those notes that doctor is going to leave behind and get that boy to trust me with those powers of his? I wonder...

We never tried to make one with a boy before, you know? Might be less annoying and whiny! God.

[Now Hazama is doing his best Noel impression.] What did you do to Tsubaki? W-Why? Make it stop! Noooooo!

And don't get me started on the 13th sample. Ragna this and Ragna that all the damn time. The boy shouldn't be so damn irritating. Plus, if I give it enough juice, I wonder if it could slip right into the heart of it all.

Hmmm. Yeah. I like this plan. I like it a lot. Too bad Relius won't be around to get a hard-on for all the tests I'm going to have to do. His help would be nice but I can't sit on my ass waiting. Just have to move forward all on my own!

Besides, there are plenty of idiots who would probably be more than happy to help me.

Let's get the ball rolling mun.

Sincerely,

Captain Hazama

NOL Intelligence Department.

crashallmodes

So, finally got around to picking me up, huh? I'm not surprised. Well, I am, but only that it took you this long. How do you expect to keep up?

I really hope you're serious about sending me somewhere. You know I'll get stir-crazy if you lock me up in headspace for all eternity. Ever seen someone tap their foot so fast they make a hole in the floor?

We should ask around. Do you think there's anywhere I can meet some of the oldschool gang? And I still want to keep my powers, so that narrows it down. Oh, man, this is gonna be crash. I won't even have to worry about...

Well, enough of that. Get looking. I'll be over here not taking candy from strangers, or whatever. Don't worry about me. You have a job to do.

operapaintingandmurder

You're very confident, aren't you? [Perhaps it's a little obvious, to be trying to change the subject when he's been the object of such intense scrutiny and thought for the past several days, but he's going to try it anyway.]

Let's just hope that you don't create too high of a fall for yourself. [You could almost believe he's sincere, he's so good at hiding that momentary smirk.]

nascensibility

I know exactly what you're thinking and I positively won't have any of it.

[As clearly evidenced by the expression on her face.]

If you think you can just- just "update" me to whenever-you-like simply because I'm the only person from my world in the game, you've got another thing coming!

truffulacide

Wow, how about we don't. I mean, if you really need someone to help you weigh the pros and the cons of either of these places, you ought to get your head checked out 'cause I'm pretty sure it's full of hot air. Or termites. Maybe termites.

But hey, look on the bright side: not everyone gets to blame their bad ideas on magical head bugs. It's like you're part of an exclusive club. An exclusive club where all the members are psycho lunatics.

[...]

Ahnmm. Had something in my throat, sorry.

magealicious

[Someone is less than amused by her mun's use for her in a silly meme and feels the need to vent rather loudly about it.]

How dare you call me a useless princess! If I was a princess I would throw you into the deepest dungeon I could find. I am working hard at making a name for myself thank you!

Current Mood: aggravated

queenofnight

MUUUUUUN~CHAN!

[feel the energy]

Kyaaa~ I'm so happy that you've finally noticed me!!!

You're friends are so nice too~! I love them so much~!!

[[Not if you know who's coming]]

I promise I shall be well...uhm... When are we going to eat that green tea ice cream and caramel cheesecake in you fridge? I'm soooooooo hungry~!!!

savemegermany

MUNDANE! I KNOW YOU'VE TURNED ME INTO A MOB BOSS FOR THE DURATION OF THIS STRANGE CURSE-PLOT, BUT PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME HURT ANYONE! I REALLY DON'T WANT TO DO THAT! I'D RATHER JUST RUN AWAY AND BAKE THINGS, LIKE PASTRIES AND COOKIES AND PASTA! PLEASE TURN MY BAKERY BACK INTO A REAL BAKERY NOT A FRONT FOR ILLEGAL OPERATIONS!

WHATEVER I DID TO YOU, I'M SORRY! PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME DO THIS!!!!

liugan

You do not recall our conversation? I remember it clearly. This is exactly how it would come to pass, how I predicted it would. Just like it has with all the rest.

Do I mind? No. It is inconvenient at most for me, but I expected it would come and thus, here we are. I will not start blubbering or lamenting on days gone by, events and opportunities missed. There is much you have put me through, much you will not compensate me for, much you will regret whether I have anything to do with it or not.

But alas, the freedom I am now presented with, I'll take as a parting gift. We both know that come November, you will be bouncing off the walls with how eager you are to try this again. For now, I consider this a vacation.

Retirement. Pah.

reallyreallygreat

Wow, this is great! I knew people used the internet for things other than porn! Just wait till I tell Trekkie!

[ kate freezes and suddenly she looks horrified. ]

Waaaait. You're not going to, you know ...after...

kissthegrell

Oh my,

All these months, you boring little mun-woman you, you ignore me all these months. It's enough to make a girl do something... desperate.

You want to play with your new group of boys, hum? It's not that I can blame you. But I need a little attention too, you know. You can't forget me, I'm unforgettable.

Come on, find a place for me. I'll do anything you want. AN-Y-THING.

Just find me a place with some handsome men where I can unleash my desires. You'll find me agreeable.

Otherwise...

Well...

Let's not think about that.

cogitates

It's perfectly reasonable to remain silent while you-- [Handwave.] Dilly about on this pointless escapade.

Regardless of the the fact I'm in your head, you could not possibly think you know enough of anything-- let alone me -- to continue this in any accurate form.

In lieu of not adhering to my request, you are met with a resounding silence.

[A pause. Because this is quite the opposite. He exhales, giving an annoyed look.]

Obviously that does not include-- [Another gesture to encompass this place.]

This.

waitingforasign

[Mihashi speaks in a weird staccato, like half of his words are sticking his his throat and it's a physical effort to get them out.] Um. I guess I could move. If I had to. But. I like it -- here!

[His eyes dart back and forth. OH GOD IS HE BEING TOO PUSHY?] I just started to make f-friends and. That kind of game... doesn't really sound fun...

And I. Need to practice! I want to go to K-Koshien next year. With Tajima and Abe and. Everyone!

givemebackmyhat

So I guess I ought to say good on you for finding a place to stick me that's a city - a real, proper city, even if it isn't London. At least it's not some sort of...I dunno, fucking weird alien city on some entirely different planet where I can't even use my magic. I mean, I know that's usually your sort of thing, crap BBC special effects and whatnot, but let me tell you, there's quite enough to be getting on with here on Earth without throwing bloody aliens into the mix.

But you do realise that Matthew's going to flip his shit if I just up and disappear on him, right? Not that he doesn't think that I'm not totally capable of handling things on my own, since I'm a kick-arse sorceress and all, but he's, you know, Matthew, and he's not exactly the most stable bloke on a good day. And he might dress like a homeless person and sort of smell like a homeless person, but I've seen him fucking lose it, and let me tell you, that is some truly scary shit that you do not want to deal with, wrath of the Midnight Mayor and blue electric angels and all that.

Couple more things to address here: one, hey, do you think you could maybe pick out someone for me to look like who isn't the sister of some chick you already play? 'Cos that's just weird, frankly, and I'm not having any of this mistaken identity crap. And two, who says I need even more powers? I guess you could let me turn into animals or something like that, whatever, but I'm pretty awesome all on my own.

[ooc: canon is the Matthew Swift/Magicals Anonymous series by Kate Griffin]

ablebodied

Since joining a game is more-or-less outside the realm of possibility with their rules on fandom OCs... What do you plan to do here? It doesn't seem like you have very many options aside from following people around on memes or starting private storylines.

Oh, me? I'd love to join a game. But since I know some "canon" characters, I can't think of anywhere that would allow that. (Anyone else aware of a place like this is free to speak up, by the way!) In any case, at least Ken will be with me if we stay outside a game. We've been together so long, gotten so far...

... what do you mean, "and in the end, it doesn't even matter"? It matters a lot! Ex-pardon you. Songs don't excuse it. Either use colloquialisms I understand, or just teach me everything you know.

rebornfromice

...Why there of all places? You know just as well as I do that none of my brothers or sisters are there. Besides, how will I be able to sufficiently defend my lord if I'm whisked to another world?

[...] Yes, the Regent Lord being there is somewhat better than being here on my own, but still do reconsider. I'm sure there's a place better suited that you can send me to if you must. Even if Azeroth's threatening to tear apart at the seams...

Suffer well, mundane.

just_cant_die

[A wrinkled face just stares back from his chair. He looks grumpy, or is his face stuck that way? No one really knows, but he's sharp eyes are locked on this mun like a predator, waiting for an open opportunity to strike. Hands folded at the chest level, the silence is broken at last.]

I can see a stunt like this from another youngster in this day and age, but in someone of your age, I would expect a great deal more of. You remind my of a young man I once knew. That isn't a good thing. Quit while you can, kid. You should go home and focus your efforts on something more productive than playing pretend.

[The growl of a dog is heard from beside the chair. A Great Dane-Doberman mix stands from the floor. Bruce pets the dog's head to calm him. The dog obeys, sitting on his hunches, silently.]

I don't think Ace is very fond of this game either.

windsofchange

I don't know what you're smirking about. You just waited twelve years for that. Do you feel enlightened? Because I feel like I burned my college yearbook from Freshman year for a reason.

isolophobia

Horror and survival, fear so thick on the ground one is all but tripping over it? Now this I can work with.

But I do insist that you finish the application and submit it. Your fears of 'having castmates' have been deterring me from enjoying myself for long enough.

No, no 'buts'! You owe me, girl. The others are well settled, and I have been more than patient while you wring your hands and worry through fitful indecision. I got you through that nasty little spell over the holidays, and now I am calling in the favor.

Sit. Write. I will dictate.

little_blank_fighter

You remember me? That's fun. Can I see Ritsuka again? I'd like to see him, even though he's odd.

eternitysbrat

( cut for hideously obnoxious green text (feel free to tell me if you'd rather not deal with it in my tags!) )

sunlord

[Roshaun is looking particularly haughty and perhaps a little aggrieved.]

You can't possibly think that you're any more prepared to play me than you are qualified to do so - a few sentences of canon review and a few sketches does not a study make. If you're willing to try doing this properly then you may try again then - in the mean time stop before you embarrass both of us.

glasseskink

That Clark seems to be having a really tough time. Do you think it would help if we talked to him? You know... let him know it gets better? I have a feeling I'd be doing most of the talking. He doesn't really seem like the chatty sort, does he?

Anyway, I think you should give him a chance. Anyone would be pretty private with a background like that. We're both writers--you have to give in at least a little to genre. Of course that Clark's going to be darker. You knew you weren't reading a comic book or watching a romantic comedy. I mean, I'm flattered you like me better, naturally. But there's room for more than one Last Son of Krypton, right?

...Right?

alexandra_lightwood

Is this some kind of weird, mundane magic that I haven't heard of? I'm supposed to be a guy. That's what's in the books. Do you really think what happened is going to change because I'm female instead of male?

You don't even know if Magnus will like me when I'm like this. He said he's bi, but those stories make it sound like he likes men more.

And, technically, if I'm a girl now, shouldn't I be interested in women?

closetshark

Congratultions, I've been killed by that idiot boy and am now essentially crippled for all intents and purposes.

[he sighs]

And yes, I realize it's... ridiculous of me to no longer wish the defeat of the Guardians but they never came close to properly killing me and Toothiana's... experience when we swapped bodies makes it difficult to hate her as I did.

I feel it would be pointless to say anything on the others showing up, I doubt they'd be able to understand the change or be willing to let things go long enough for an explanation.

subtitre

...what do you mean, consider that as a replacement for my strenuous letter-ripping routine? You're underestimating the importance of finger muscles.

burninforyouisabettersong

Y'know, I'm pretty sure we both have better things to be doing than this.

...well, you do, anyway.

gracemyheart

Whaaaaat? You forgot about me? No way, that's impossible! No one could forget the goddess of love and beauty for long!

[...]

Now that I'm here, though, I hope you have something really, really fun in mind. I've been so bored, you wouldn't believe it!

colorofthesky

...I'm not really sure what you want me to say, mun.

I mean...yeah. They're coming, and I know they are. I'm happy that they are.

[ About Genesis too, amazingly. ]

It's just...a lot all at once.

[ He sighs. ]

...I'm going to have a lot of explaining to do, aren't I?

dangitjim

Nice to see you remembered I existed.

Now what?

trollops

You want to send me where?

C'est incroyable. What would become of my clients? They'd be so sad without me.

Not to mention how very strange it is that there is another girl who looks like me. I would hate to inspire confusion, non?

[Fifi smiles, cocking her head thoughtfully.]

But then again, if mon cher Colonel is there, it might not be so bad...

We will see.

primas

Oh hell no.

Don't even think about it.

magicalpadawan

Holy crap I can't believe I'm in the same place as Captain Kirk. If Bones and Spock show up too, I might die. Literally.

Harry is gonna be so jealous when he hears about this. ....Maybe less jealous when he hears about Max Lord.

Anyway, this turtle's pretty cool after all, so -- thanks!

Captain Kirk, oh my god, oh my god.

I think we have issues.
