Jul. 27th, 2013

I ought to be flattered, love, to be dragged out by me ankles again in the midst of your usual delirium -- congenial company notwithstanding,

[Jack amends, smile wry,] --but I have the faintest of inklings that you're being somewhat presumptuous in your assumption that I will be entirely agreeable regarding the, ah...endeavour.

[Which is to say, he doesn't especially want to cooperate.]

gildylocks

Dearest Mun,

Do you think all those people out there will understand that I'm meant to be famous due to how handsome, fashionable and talented I am? I do hope they won't tease me, like they do at school...

Perhaps they'll even ask for my autograph and take my picture? Oh, that'll be just marvelous!

seaswann

While I appreciate not being forgotten, there is only one place I wish to be. Take me there before I become angry.

(Who taught her how to use a pistol? This isn't fair.)

thirteenth_brat

[And it's head canon Roxas actually agrees with, which is weird, but it doesn't keep him from being annoyed with the mun anyway.]

Wouldn't you hate some crazy fur ball that almost got you executed by a psychotic and temperamental nut job of a queen?! And you were laughing through the whole thing. What is wrong with you?

I... guess it's a small consolation that some crazy stuff happened to Luxord too, but really? He's not the one that almost ended up a head shorter...

[Half-lidded eyes, and a look just a little bit too mature to be Shiro's. And still... The smile is soft, nothing to do with Wretched Egg usual wicked grin.]

That's okay, Mundane~

My wish was still fulfilled... somehow~

Current Mood: accomplished

justguidelines

While I appreciate your efforts in this attempt to gather me a 'cast' at that horrid place, keep in mind I don't need - nor do I want - one. I do just fine on me own, and your dreams of me being needled by Miss Swann or Jack and I and ridiculous, overblown sword fights in the hallway are just that: Dreams.

I've no use for it. Got me a Jack elsewhere and you see what trouble he's caused. Nay, leave it. It's not ideal, no, but it's better than some.

It can be a...Vacation, you might say.

Madame Secretary-

Do not. Please do not feel as if any of this is your fault, or you have broken something in me that will not recover from what has happened this month. I am not well, and I am not entirely myself, but those things will return, in time, and you, and Combeferre and Jehan of anyone will be the chiefs among those who bring them back to me. I trust you, and them, and all of the mundanes involved in that matter, and I know that I can do so and it will be all right. Furthermore, you have nothing to do with that doubt which has been inflicted upon me this month, and to blame yourself for any of it is not only insulting to you, it takes away from my standing as well.

Do you ever think, truly, that there is anything that you may do to hurt or move me? YOU? It WOULD take a force like Malicant to force me as far down on my knees as I've been forced, and I would have you remember that. You had no part in hurting me, you had no part in my temporary weakness, and you will make me strong again, when we are ready to pursue that.

Nothing in the qualities you loved about me has vanished because of what he did to me. They have been muted, perhaps, for now, but you will bring them back. Not only do you love me as you always have, you understand me now, and such understandings can lead to much, when I am ready to lean my weight on you and get back up. They will lead to much as every temporary weakness has before in me, leaving me tempered and not broken by the flames I have been thrust through.

I will be better at the other side of this, and I will have you to thank, not blame for that, so I say none of your guilt, none of your pity, but instead an understanding it is going to get better.

Do we not owe each other that, at least?

-A. Enjolras

atallcost

Of course I could have done it. In the end, there's not much difference, except in the scope of our destruction.

It's enough. Over for them, over for me. I did what I was trained to do, so leave me alone. A re-read doesn't mean I'll cooperate. I don't want to fight any more wars.

sans_evremonde

If you are so intent madame, upon dragging me to space hell, it would be advised that you simply go ahead and finish the process you began, rather than waste time in speculations regarding the intimate and delicate matters of my life.

Take that as you will.

Current Mood: annoyed

underthehoodie

Tch, of course I look like shit during that chapter. I'd like to see anybody else put up with a death threat, search for a spy, run a dance party patrol and train Satan's brat without havin' a bag or two under their eyes.

don't say a word about me slippin' up there either. we'll make the best out of that situation.

empath_wiggin

It's been a while, hasn't it? I know you've missed me, but you had other things, and I had other things.

Perhaps it is time, as you put it, to reboot me. You know me backwards and forwards, you know. Any situation, any strange things that happen. Frell, you know me better than my so-called creator, it's practically public knowledge. As public as anything is with me, anyway.

I like the idea of coming in mid-way through Demosthenes. I'm old enough to appreciate the bar, but not so old that everything has already gone to shit.

Just... find the book, ok? You don't have to read everything, but just review. Ages are important, even though he didn't really know what he was doing with mine.

In full disclosure, I think I missed you too.

notbinary

It's okay, Mun-san. We've gone through this before, remember?

Now it's just... animated I suppose. It... has a lot more finality to it though, huh? You said you'd be fine until it happened in the anime, after all.

I just hope I've made a bit of a difference, that's all.

crowflies

C'mon, you and I both know how this play pans out. So you get a little weak in the knees for tough guys with complicated family lives. It's nothing I haven't seen before. [ He pauses, knits his eyebrows in an expression somewhere between sympathetic and patronizing. ] You and me, darlin'? How's that gonna work out better than any of the last times?

wrathfulkhan

Stop what you are doing immediately.

Put the application down and step away from the keyboard.

You're not going to get in in time for the Hogwarts plot anyway, I don't care if you desperately want to see me in a Slytherin uniform.

I'm not losing the rings, and I'm not losing any memories ~~especially not the ones you're considering~~. And no, don't do that other thing either; that's the same as taking the rings away, and you know that. [But what about Zhang and the-- IT'S EITHER RETCON OR A PLOT HOLE, LIKE MUCH OF WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE WRITERS DO TWISTS LIKE THIS.]

Just leave me alone.

...and stop trying to enable someone to play Stark too, all right? Unless you want us to destroy wherever we end up.

[Beat.]

Actually, yes. Do.

Current Mood: irritated

prideinthefall

First you throw me into a haunted house and are gleefully awaiting to sign me up for experimentation. I've tolerated this nonsense, but a servant to elves, fae, whatever is just going to far. I trust you aren't actually serious about this and I will not have to point out the number of reasons why this is a bad idea. However in case you need some reminding I will bring up the best point: are you certain selecting me from a period when I'm less than stable is ideal?

Yes I realize you're so very interested in toying with my mentality while in the throes of memory loss and subjugation, but I hope you understand that I am not.

[ No, he's not saying all of this while sharpening the Masamune to imply any sort of threat - not at all. In fact he seems perfectly calm (too calm). ]

blood_and_thunder

Um... Miss Mundane? Or... would you prefer Mun? I-I'm sorry, I'm really new at this... Wait, let start over... I'm so sorry, I keep messing up... L-Let me just grab my talisman and try again...

[...]

INSOLENT PUPPETEER! YOU THINK YOU CAN BRING ME TO THIS WORLD WITHOUT A PLAN IN MIND? IF YOU DON'T FIND ME A PLACE TO ENACT MY VENGEANCE, I'LL HAVE YOUR HEAD ON A PIKE!

AHAHAHAHA!

... W-was that too much?

skilful

Ahaha, well... There are worse ways to go!

[ SHUT UP ]

justkeepmoving

I'm just glad I get to finish what I started on that island before they pull me back. [ It will be nice not wondering what's happening on Yamatai, or worrying about Sam and the others. ]

innocentflowerbud

Ah--? Mundane-san...? Or... do you want me to call you mun-san instead?

It's okay if you don't have any plans for me yet--! I don't mind... it'll... give you some time to get my voice down, right? That is what you call it, right...?

[ She fidgets a little before speaking up again. ]

But... I would like to see my friends, too, if that's okay... please?

pestered

You said you found Big Brother, so what are we waiting for?

You promised we'd go somewhere with him, so let's go!

slowestknife

You know I am a patient woman, and I have waited for my chance. Finally, it seems, it's my turn to be heard.

It does not mean I am happy with your plans, and I'm not sure you'll go through with it. Put me in any Hell you like. I am the daughter of Ra's al Ghul. You'll see what happens.

colourofthesky

So, I'm thinking we got some lines crossed at some point, mun. I was really really looking forward to getting out again, 'cause don't get me wrong, you're nice and all but I need to do something. But then...well, you gotta go and do something like this.

I mean, really? You couldn't find one place to send me that's nice? I'm not asking for a lot, just don't send me to some prison, you know? Is that so hard?

[Sigh. Yes, he knows there's no changing the mun's mind once it's set.]

Man, you owe me.

no_longer_a_king

Of course I'm tired, mun. We have been over this before. We have also been over my inability to simply lay down and take it despite how tired I am.

So why does it shock you so much I plan to still keep going after what you have in store for me? I do not appreciate your plans, but surely you realize that I cannot sit by and let people continue to be hurt and tortured so. Even though my closest allies are gone, even though my mind and body keep being twisted by our jailers at your discretion, even though the worst thing that could possibly happen already came to pass for me, I will not give in.

You said you wished to stick it out with me until the end. Well? Do not be so shocked I will not stop fighting the Administrators until the bitter end, whether it be the true death of me or something far, far worse.

Sincerely,
Saber of White

unclesanguine

Not enough fun in your life, huh?

Let your ol' uncle Sanguine give you a few pointers on tempting mortals into sin and debauchery.

Not that a lot of the mortals around here need it.

Hey, let's just forget the whole 'game' thing and stroll right on back to that 'meme' place you were talkin' about.

I saw plenty of people there we can have some real fun with, if you know what I mean.

theleaf

Unhand me, Even Stranger Woman! Or else Daddy will come for you. Or Korra. Or Daddy and Korra. Maybe they'll even bring Daddy's old girlfriend.

Then you'll be sorry.

cava

Non, non, non, monsieur!

[Enter tuts, waggling his finger.]

You really think I will accept any of these "games"--especially that one, of all places? You honestly think this to be a good idea? Hmph...

[a long pause, as he starts to consider.]

Then again...

[a hand goes to his chin in thought. he frowns out of contemplation.]

Though I might start as an ordinary human, if I regain myself over time--as is sure to happen--I will possess a complete set of human data. Native to myself, and with the background to properly process it...

[something in his eyes shines, before the flash of Messiah Cards 04 and 07. he spreads his arms out, drawing one back inward and bringing a hand down over his chest.]

Ooh la la. Most interesting, monsieur! The game begins anew, then...

[and a slowly spreading, mischievous smile as he completes the flourish with a mocking bow. he's going to like this.]

Very well. D'accord. Let us see who else follows from my world as one of these so-called "reincarnates", hmmm?

aestark

I wasn't aware that we were on speaking terms.

No, drunkenly dancing and head-banging around your home in your underwear to a couple of ~~really good~~ decent playlists isn't going to sway me to work with you again. ...Is that really why you relate to me?

You were doing something with-- cannibals, wasn't it? Cannibals and gangsters, that was it. Great priorities by the way. Hope that works out for you; I have better ideas of pushing my luck. No, you're not allowed to access my exact meaning, but feel free to interpret and otherwise deduce as you please.

Bye, Felicia.

professionalstudent

So you are nervous, Mundane-kun. I see! Such feelings are normal when you try your hand at a new task! Even I get nervous sometimes, hahaha! [Ah... Was that supposed to be supportive? It was more awkward than anything else.]

But you shouldn't let yourself discouraged before you even really begin! You simply have to try your best and work hard! Remember, giving up gets you nowhere!

"It does not matter how slowly you go, so long as you do not stop!"

[I don't think the exclamation mark is really part of that quote...]

That's not the point!

youwillrot

This is an unwise decision.

[Oh, dear. Someone's not too pleased with their predicament, it seems. Don't you want to lose half your memories and go to glorified prison, Sephiroth? No? But you'd have such a good time there! Making friends, setting things on fire, making friends by setting them on fire—]

For you, I meant.

[...yeah. He's mad, alright.]

love_is_lasagna

You had better have a good reason for putting me in this place with your characters.

I have never seen such an unmanly assortment in my life. Except for the space marine, he's cool.

Also give me back my car. This is not justice, it is thievery.

ghouliayelps

Euaagh ugh eeah muurr.*

*Translation: ...Really? Are you serious? Stop. Just stop.

sixfeet

Mun.

I'm glad you're not rushing things, but there's no need to worry about so many details at once. I'll be fine, I promise. So, please, stop fretting. You just had a procedure -- you'll give yourself an ulcer!

anormalironlife

Look, Mun, right? I'm not interested. Gene has all ten of the rings, Rhodey is thinking about the Air Force, Pepper is... Pepper. Dad and I just got the company back from Hammer of all people.

Can't I just... revel in my accomplishments for five minutes? Why do you think that I want to go anywhere?

[Because you get bored very easily.]

No, I don't. I have school and Rhodey and Pep and being Iron Man and helping Dad with the company. Not to mention there are suit upgrades to work on and I'm pretty sure Fury's going to be keeping an eye on me.

[Tony, you're whining.]

I don't care. Stop thinking about it.

... This is all because of Gene isn't it?

hopestobe

Um... ah-- Miss Mun?

It's... it's very nice to meet you! I'm very happy to be here and that you'd pick me! But... Um... [ He looks down and fiddles with the clasp on his hood. ] I shouldn't be away from school for too long. Especially if I'm going to study to become a Precure fairy.

[ After a pause: ] A-and... I don't want to worry Geruru.

So, um... what do we do now?

misperceived

...I hate you so much right now.

Current Mood: anxious

oldmanstriker

Really?

Are you seriously planning on dumping me somewhere with aliens? You've bloody gone 'round the bend, mate.

Still, as long as they don't try to eat me, I suppose we'll get along fine. But, mark my words, the second something goes wrong, they'll regret it. And so will you.

[Arms folded.]

And I told you, stop looking at those damn pictures. It's not helping.

hischair

If you're going to watch something called Heroes, shouldn't you be a little more interested in the good guys? Who is that watchmaker or whatever, the "Evil Spock" — can we not call him that? There's already one of those floating around out there — he's a completely different person. And please, please change the hovertext on the you-know-what before Kathryn rips me a new one. We're actually getting along now.

Can I wash the star-charts off my arms yet? I feel like Bones' private doodling PADD.

briarose

Well, this is a surprise! What am I to make of this place, hm? I would like to explore, though I am hesitant. There are many who do not seem to like being brought here.

[She fixes her Mun with a curious gaze.]

Do they know something that I do not?

lostradiance

...eh? Hey, mun, why'd you wake me up? I was havin' a good nap.

[ Lumiere moves to rub the sleep from her eyes before yawning and stretching. ]

You're thinkin' of sendin' me where now? Oh, this Exsilium place? Yeah, it sounds nice! Although, do they have comfy beds? I'm kinda in need of one of those.

[ Then, she laughs heartily, grinning ear to ear. ]

Don't worry! I'm not gonna spend most of the time there sleepin'! That's borin' and I'm sure no one's gonna wanna be around me if all I do is sleep.

Say, what's this about someone bein' there that I already know? --Oooh, so it's her. This just gets more and more excitin'!

deadshallspeak

A chemist, hm? It's different, but out of all the possible options this isn't so bad. I don't have many complaints for the life you propose. If anything, it's almost a relief. Perhaps there I can finally get some peace and quiet, although I suspect that it wouldn't be the case for long.

However, if you're going to bring her into it...leave her out of any trouble that may develop, will you? Please. She doesn't need any more trouble, in this life or another one.

And in any case, if you plan to make this work I suggest you continue reviewing my cases. You still have a number of them to go, don't forget.

battlefieldbloom

Oh well, hello again Miss. It's been a while since we have spoken, hasn't it?

[The brightest and happiest of smiles]

But I do wonder why you decided to bother with me now, it's not like I can go anywhere...

At least not with how I currently am.

contrariness

Oi! When I talked about getting out, this isn't what I meant.

I can't even properly escape with you running the act. Worse than Parnassus, you are.

shootmeintheface

MUN! MUN! HEY MUN!

I need a favor!

IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT! Listen carefully: I need you.

To shoot me.

IN THE FACE!

NO, YOU DID NOT HEAR ME INCORRECTLY! This is not a trick, lie, or twisted joke! I seriously, legitimately need you to shoot me in the face right now come on do it!

SHOOT ME IN THE FAAAAAAAACE!

...please?

greatdayinthemorning

...Well if there's one thing I could hand to you, it would be my gratitude. ..and perhaps a few tissues.

Not many would spend their nights consumed with burning curiosity as to how an epic tale is going to end, only to have that curiosity appeased and their heart cruelly ripped out all in one fell swoop.
But I am touched, really.

So now I'm here! Not a bad gig, unless this is going to be a one-time deal. I've noticed a recurring theme with the rest of those yammering rapscallions in your subconscious, and to be honest I'm not sure if I would like to be trapped in the same room with all of them for too long. Not to mention I've seen more of the inside of a brain than I want to in a lifetime. Max alone is nearly more concentrated energy than one could withstand, so multiplying that by the count of 32 muses is a bit daunting.

...Actually, you're right. That's not a fair comparison. Nobody can compare to Max's level of concentrated energy, though I do mean that in the nicest of ways.

crawlersuperior

I will not stand for this. Do you really expect an individual of my superior intellect to bow before the likes of you?

Ridicolo! I'd sooner die than be an imbecile's puppet!!

belongsinamuseum

Come on, sweetheart. We both know this isn't going anywhere, so why bother? You were apping that magic kid somewhere, right? Besides, I'm not your type. Don't you have some queen to go bother or something?

I think we have issues.
