Jun. 30th, 2013

Okay, this is pretty much equally awkward and awesome...I mean you're just sat there writing what you think I'd say in this situation when actually I'd probably still be at the office.

Or working regardless...looking at it like that, I can appreciate the break.

Anyway..what was I should call you? Mun? Kind of weird, but I guess I've heard weirder. Anyway, I'm thinking if I'm gonna be here a while, maybe I should get some more avatars...maybe a paid account..

Worth a shot

lytelcniht

Young lord, I find little reason for your nervousness.

Know you not that a king stands before you? All will be well. No challenge shall best me with the blessing of the sword in my--

...The premise emphasises touch? You must not be serious.

...You are? Young lord- I think you must gravely misunderstand my role here.

( explanation below the cut! )

puncheshitlerforjustice

Excuse me Ma'am, but I don't think this is gonna work out.

I know you're going on about liking my 'old fashioned values' but aren't they a little too...well, old fashioned?

Plus, there's this name. I don't know why you're laughing so much. Back in my day, kids would have killed to see me punch Hitler in the face.

cutdown

I don't understand why it would be important. It's just a day. I have never celebrated it before; there is no reason to start now.

...In any case, you were searching for a 'game', yes? Do you believe you have found one? I think such a thing would be more useful than going on about my birthday...

...

What is a 'horror game'?

[ ooc; spoilers are fine, but let me know if you're not okay with them! ]

couldputitback

I suppose it's hardly surprising that I'm not happy with this most recent turn of events in this place you've shoved me. I know it's temporary and that it will end. That doesn't mean for one moment that I have to LIKE what's happening.

And while we're on the subject of things I don't like? I miss the others. I miss Jacqueline. And I miss Brian. Blade. I even bleeding well miss Pete Wisdom, if you can believe that. ~~I miss Dane so much.~~

I know, I know. Not likely to hear much out of any of them. A girl can dream, though. I think we could use some more help in the House, that's all.

g0st

Muuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!! How could youuuuuuu---? [ flailing and waving that paper fan of his because his mun is ignoring him ]

Bringing me here and not letting me play Go?? At least Hikaru let me play..! [ slight pause ] Well rarely when he started learning but still!

.. At least let me possess someone........

[ Also, because he's a ghost, some may notice that he's slightly.. transparent sometimes. ]

Current Mood: Whiny

walkedaway

So, you are thinking about going down these two roads again and are tempted to bring myself and, uh, that other version of me back into the game. Alright. I've got some unfinished business there so I guess I can't complain too much, and I can more or less fend for myself. ~~Stop laughing, I am perfectly capable of surviving there on my own if I need to.~~ But the kid? The kid would be in way over his head. He didn't even have the benefit of having listened to D-...to his stories about the Grid, seeing that he lost his dad when he was just a toddler and he only has a mom in his timeline. You aren't seriously thinking about dumping him headfirst into a setting like the Grid with no kind of preparation, are you?

...oh, right. This is you we are talking about, and you have already done something like that twice.

Guess we will just have to be happy that you are too bogged down with other tags to do anything with us in the immediate future.

makeitmine

Well, that sure was a... thing.

[... Jim are you serious is that all you're actually going to say about this

Jim]

1ofyour5aday

This is the third time you've decided to bring me out, Mun - granted the last time was quite some time ago, though I don't see why I'm always your go-to for reviving your old habits. It's not as though I've been with you the longest or anything of that sentiment. I would have thought by now the novelty of 'bringing out the green girl' would have worn off a long time ago.

Clearly I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions. But..I suppose it is good to be out again. Just, do me a favour and try to keep the torment to a minimum?

dirty_deed_colonel

I'm guessing my being here means you're hoping to get hours of entertainment out of me

Keep dreaming, sweetheart.

- SM.

bostonbasher

Yo, mundane, I heard a rumor you were thinkin' a' takin' me to a game finally, and I gotta say, after droppin' all those awesome threads ya had goin' with me before, this is a huge step up f--

... wait, you're takin' the lawyer? Dat mouthy guy with the hair? Ya may as well take dat stupid robot along while you're at it!

... h-hey! Dat's not an invitation! Jeez!

[She folds her arms and frowns, sticking out her bottom lip.]

What d'you even got dat thing in here anyways? Robots are freakin' stupid. They're a buncha worthless piles o' scrap! And dis one you got here, Rabbit or whatever, oh-ho-ho man, is he special. He is like a whole new brand a' moron.

phantomblossom

If you insist on doing whatever it is you are planning, I would like it if you could get through more then two stages of a game I am in before starting up the application. Especially after you have only slept for about 2 hours.

Really Mundane, you do need to sleep a lot longer then that before you try to do anything. Although I would question where you are sending me. You have not said a word and that is quite worrisome.

....Please stop laughing and get back to your reviewing if you are not going to tell me a thing. I have a feeling that I should be worried the way you are grinning.

shoryukening

[See Ken. See Ken crack the hell up at the image of Juri, Vega, Balrog and Sagat in Planeteer outfits.]

Now that is what you call comedy right there.

takesthecake

Mun,

Firstly, I find your choice of venue tasteless, but let's leave that aside for now.

I don't agree with your temptation to pick such an early "canon point," whether or not it would save me a headache. That ignorance is apparently bliss, as the saying goes, is irrelevant to me. I don't run on bliss, I run on determination and sugar. I would much rather remain aware of the Kira case and my own death than have my unawareness of the facts of my situation come back to haunt me.

...

I doubt I have to say this, but if you are really serious about this, you'll have a lot of work to do for the next few days. It has been almost four years since last time we worked together. In your position, it would be wise to avoid overconfidence.

justcrywolf

Shit, what's this again? Nostalgia. Just fucking nostalgia.

I'll be over here, reading a book and pretending that you have a life. You're welcome, darling.

hangedfire

So I've gotta ask. Not that I'm complaining about getting a journal away from the 'regular' version of me - hell, considering the kind of stuff you're putting the poor guy through (seriously, Vexen's lab rat?!), I'm glad of it...
... but how much do you really plan on playing me? Where? Your friends think it's cool that you gave us Personas. Hey, I totally agree. Got me where I am now, after all. But it's not something that really makes it easy for a guy to ... mix in with the rest of the roleplay world, huh? Especially as you always worry about dumping us 'AU' types onto people.

Okay, that 'strings' place does sound like an option - but let's be real. You keep thinking about it and putting it aside as 'big and scary'. It's not very ...encouraging, you know?

[Throwing his hands up-] Sheesh... what did I do to get stuck with a mun like this?

nomatteryourmask

Of course, I wouldn't say "no" to seeing Erik again, Mademoiselle Mun. Especially with your considerations towards "upping" my reference point, I think I'd like to spend more time with him.

...but not the cat. Je n'aime pas le chat.

keybearing

Look, I know you think this last boss fight in Ven's story is a pain. But you can do it! You just have to try again, okay?

And yeah, of course I know about that trailer from the...'E3' thing and how it's got you all excited. Just...try to be patient? They haven't even said when it will be out yet. And I know you still haven't got a '3DS' to play through that 'Dream Drop Distance' game. You know getting excited again doesn't necessarily mean you have to take me to one of these 'games' right?

idealistics

Honestly, mun, if I knew I would have been thrown into a place full of monsters and darkness right after the end of the war, I would have taken some time off to enjoy myself.

I don't think I can request a more laid-back place, perhaps? One without the monsters, constant fighting for your life and maybe a good bar?

[ ... ]

Ah, who am I kidding. I'd probably get bored few minutes in, in a place like that. Bring it on.

nameinherited

( spoilers )

poppedyourcherry

Well, if you've gotta send me anywhere, a sex game is the perfect place! [tee hee hee] You sure about it, though? I think it sounds fun--and no Mom around to steal my boyfriends--but aren't you way busy or somethin' like that? And this don't sound like anywhere you could tag into from work!

Okay, okay, fine. You couldn't tag into anything with me from work anyway, no matter what game. And you have been sayin' something about havin' your characters in games be more balanced, but I wasn't the one who apped in as so many guys!

I'm guessin' that's why you aren't appin that Joscelin guy instead, even if he's got canonmates there. That and readin' a stack of dirty comics goes way faster'n readin' a buncha 900 page books if yer gonna be canon reviewin'. (Speakin' of which, how you gonna deal with me not havin' much of workable timeline fer my life?)

You'll either app me or not, I guess. So d'ya think this Ariel place has any drugs?

kingofnightmares

You're happy for me? Hm. I bet you are.

Essentially, you've made me into a Guardian now. That's something I did not want out if this partnership we have. After all that's happened, I know most of Nautilus will be watching me closely. Yes, the extra power is a plus... but the full job description, like I said before, is like one of a Guardian's.

Protecting others, correcting errors within the world, do you forget that I was once considered an 'error'? It makes no sense. You just had to make my situation worse there.

...As for being bound to an Ashura, that's something I have to take time to think about.

animusdaemonium

Happiness is relative. Not everyone can achieve it.

demon_curls

That is a strong way of wording it, mondano - it was either you let me 'stretch my legs', if you will, or I sit in the back of your head and rot slowly. And let's be honest, I'm far more interesting than half the idioti you have accounts for.

So, what now, hm? Go find Maestro, or better yet, somewhere for me to waste an hour or two. I'm bored half to death already.

imperceptibly

I'm glad that you waited at least a bit before you did this, but could you stop saying those things, please? You have a very wrong idea about my relationship with...everybody.

[Ooooor, you're in denial.]

No, I don't think that's the problem.

rotandriddles

I should like to meet a Reaper. It sounds like they are doing my job for me.

tossme

My lady, your screams hurt my ears. They're just elves. [Hmph. Well, Legolas is a friend, but the other two...bah.]

jackiebrown

Baby? I'm too old for you to keep on-and-off remembering I exist.

knightlyrondo

Oh, so you finally decided to commit with me, huh? About time! I'm not even going to mention the first time you brought me out. No more talking witches, do you hear me?

But this place you got in mind? Sure. I can dig going there. Madoka's there and someone's got to keep an eye on her! You can't be too careful if that transfer student is around, you know.

Hurry up, already. I'm ready and prepared to help protect those in that game.

coolcubed

Hm.

I guess you should do it if you really want to.

I wouldn't exactly complain about getting to be a superhero or anything. Actually, that's kind of a great side adventure, and not everybody gets to have those. I'll get a secret identity, a costume- maybe even a partner. Every Batman needs a Robin, like every Inspector needs a Constable. It brings previously untouchable plot ideas back into reach. Friendship dynamics, problems separating their personal lives from the professional, broadening audience appeal. People can usually relate to one partner or the other.

I'd probably have to put a lot of work into finding the right person in the first place, since I'd be all by myself.

Personally I don't see a lot of appeal in that, but everyone's entitled to their opinion. This can be my Batman Begins.

turnedenoughstones

Look, I want to play. You know that, I know that. I also know what your current debate is.

My advice? Stick to your guns. I know you haven't picked them yet, but when you do, stick to them. If I end up there, I'll have fun; if I don't--

If I don't, then you make sure you'll have fun. That's the point of it, remember?

boutant

This is the part where I'm supposed to tell you to try and be responsible if you're dusting me off, right?

Honestly, I've been a little bored.

fearthebiscuit

Oh, hey. Long time no see. Since we're together again, it looks as if you've been bitten by the desire to become God.

... or play a delusional psychic with a complex entertaining thoughts of divinity. Of course that's how you would perceive me. No, I'm not offended in the least. Those confined to a temporally limited sphere of existence can never comprehend that which is eternal.

Regardless, I am here. You are here. And I'm feeling very much in the mood to tear apart time and space with a literal hammer. You can sympathize, of course. Though I doubt many others here do. You've really put me in a difficult position. Thrown me to the den of wolves, that is to say.

So. Let's have at it then.

alwaysthestory

Listen, I know you think taking me to a game is a good idea, but let's be realistic for a minute. You work, have schoo, and you're in three other games.

You really thinking taking me somewhere is good for you?

No, I'm content to stay right here and enjoy this peace and quiet.

Besides, where would you take me anyway? Some horror game? Uh uh. I'm not going anywhere, and certainly not without Evy.

Count me out.

timearc

Mun, are you sure about sending me there? I know that my life is not worth anything significant,but I still wish to stay in my world, even if it means my death.

At least Jellal, Natsu and Lucy are there. Still...

[Ultear pauses for a while.]

Well, I will get to talk to Jellal again. If only Meldy would be there...

gleans

This month has been fucking insane, I don't even blame you for feeling like you're trying to hear through cacophony, here. Maybe you should take a breather, dude. This has been a lot of shit to process, between my relationships, and the nightmares, and, y'know, maybe being engaged, and then Jesse's bullshit -- it's the mother of all fucking handfuls. Just do what you gotta do, man. I'm still here, it's just noisy.

And tell Chris and Cass I said hi (technically I'm telling them, right now, but y'know, whatever). All this dream weirdness is making me miss them. ~~But not Hush. At all. Ever.~~

Galen

smirnovsgoboom

No, Mundane.

I do not find this username amusing.

angelicism

I see you.

inceptioned

You were right, I think. You're probably better suited to Kotetsu's voice than mine. At least I have the forethought to plan ahead; you and he have the same air of indiscretion.

But if you know this is a bad idea, then why do you insist on going through with it?

...please stop reminding me. I know he has been there for a long time. He has also lost several people there, versions of myself included. I don't wish to add to that running total.

You shouldn't either.

crybabybootleg

Wha-Whaaaht?! No... No I'm not...crying...but-!

So you're really serious, you're gonna try this out, just like that!? B-but that's a very fast decision! We've never done this before, what if something bad happens? Somebody could get hurt!

And you don't know what you're doing, and what's the gang gonna do if I just up and leave! So... think about what you're doing just a little more, please! Please...?

...yeah, s-so what if I'm crying again? I- I'm really really sorry! You know I can't help it. We're still small fries on mafia turf. Who's gonna look out for my friends?

Are you sure you're not gonna change your mind? I'm sorry for saying that, it's just-

I guess I'll have to give it my best shot- but that place sounds really scary! With mirror people, and- What if it's gotten even scarier since your last time?

countofthree

Do, or don't do. There is no failure. There is no "spare."

fruititarian

Well, I'm sure it's not like G needs me while he's roaming about in the Underworld. By all means, snatch me away again, I'm sure he doesn't mind.

[Careful, Johnson, you're getting awfully sarcastic.]

Well, I'm just saying that a little warning might be appreciated the next time you decide it's funny to sweep me away to -- to headspace limbo.

throughthedark

Yes, they might be responsible for keeping us imprisoned and harbringers of misery.

But I am, so far, enjoying my conversation with Alice, just as I enjoyed my conversation with the Cheshire Cat. I see nothing wrong with this, especially as a fan of the book, if we're "bonding". Especially since Alice is one of the only people who understands my..."condition", and the Cheshire Cat has a wonderful head for riddles. It does not at all imply any hesitation to leave on my part. It's hardly a betrayal of the others.

Besides, it's not as though I can do anything about them, or the disasters they herald. I'd rather direct my attentions elsewhere than being pointlessly antagonistic.

agonybooth

You finally bring me out once again and it's only after my disappointingly weak-minded Federation counterpart has been sent somewhere that you've done so. I should be displeased by this turn of events, but why should I when I know what you have in store for him. Instead, I find myself more unhappy over the fact that I won't be around to watch.

While I cannot join my counterpart at the same game, that does not mean you can just leave me here. It wouldn't take me very long to get bored and it would be in the best interest of everyone in the vicinity if I was kept entertained. Now go on, find a place to send me or you might be the first test subject for my new invention and I'm happy to say that it is quite painful.

escarabajo

Okay. I wasn't gonna say anything, but this is starting to get ridiculous. I know you're having fun tagging stuff with him, but I'm the one who's actually in a game, remember? I've got, like, an actual kind-of stealth mission going on. With a pirate. And a spy. AND I'm talking to Superman. How are you still more excited about that guy's tags?

Face it, kiddo: it's because you're too much of a fuckin' boy scout! I'm ten times more fun than your chitinous ass. Only a matter of time before I get into a game, too: then you'll see.

Dude, would you get out of here? This isn't even your post. Way to be a freakin' adult, Travis, geez...

(ooc: if you wanna tag travis touchdown over jaime feel free to specify! his comments will come from

[Ciel has to catch his breath before he addresses his Mun. There are unmistakable tears in his eyes, but they were not created by grief. No, quite the opposite.

The Earl is feeling mirthful.]

I have been beyond the grasp of those who merely trudge through their meaningless lives for years. What gives you the arrogance to think that I, a faithful Phantomhive, would ever give you an insight into any part of my life?

I will not even reveal what soap I use to one such as you. Go.

akihisaful

Mun-san, I'm not too sure about this.

I mean, I'm thankful that you haven't forgotten my existence and anything but are you sure I'm fit for a game? All the fighting against an unknown enemy, receiving powers I have never heard of outside of video games, being trapped in a strange world where people get you to do errands--

Wait, the last one didn't happen? Oh... I guess that must have been my imagination.

Anyways, while we do some awesome things with summons and everything, but I'm just a normal high schooler without the summon system! I don't think I can last that long if there needs to be fighting on my own--

Wait, I won't have to fight?

[Canon is Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu]

knockfourtimes

Look. Let's not pretend I want to be here, or that you have any idea what it is you're doing. As far as you're concerned, this is a game. An experiment, some twisted opportunity to play junior psychiatrist. It's sick. Not to mention an inconvenience and a scam.

But why should you care? No one's stopping you. Nothing can. It's the way of the world.

Don't start in on that Camus crap. I don't want to hear it. I don't need to hear it. No one does.

Keep it to yourself, and I don't care how you waste your time. I won't stand here arguing with you; I have enough to take care of. And whatever it is you think you're doing, you aren't helping a goddamn thing.

I think we have issues.
