Aug. 19th, 2013

I’m not certain if I like the idea of most of these games. [Diana frowns slightly.]

I am no-one’s play toy and I've made it clear that I’m done with people telling me what to do.

[For a moment she pauses, looking contemplative] Though... it would be nice to get out and actually do something. I’m getting bored.

[She smiles.] If you truly think you can find me a good place, then I’ll trust your judgment. Maybe it won’t be that bad.

timeforgotten

I hardly wanted to see any of them before. [ This is a lie. He missed his team TARDIS deeply. ] Now that you've gone ahead and pushed me through to my own ending, I want to see them even less. And the others can hardly want anybody else turning up now.

[ This is also a lie. ]

Honestly. You've been at this for months now- haven't you got anything better to do with yourself yet?

sankta

Calling it a 'tailor-job' isn't funny.

Are you satisfied now? I know I feel a bit more like me, at least. And if Nikolai and Genya might be coming it'd be nice to feel settled...

I know. I'm not getting my hopes up. It's just a nice thought.

Can we get back into things now?

personalcalls

You're really back and forth on this one, aren't you? I guess I can't sway you one way or the other, seeing as I'm pretty closely involved in the matter.

Still, we got that review out of the way and you plan on replying to things this time around, so it's a better start already! Maybe the third time really is the charm! [ BWAHAHAHA- Couldn't just let me get away with it huh bro. ]

Hey, people are flawed. Might as well admit to it early on.

emeraldcrusader

[He's currently giving this look that he's really annoyed and he's got his arms crossed.]

I know that look on your face, Writer typist thing. You've been eyeing all those "sex games". I might be the biggest idiot for turning that down, but my life consists more than just those things.

[Those things. Really.]

You know what I'm talking about, don't make me explain it. The last place I was in didn't really count but it was enough that anyone you send there would drive themselves insane. Don't even think about sending me back there, you were the one who pulled me out of there in the first place.

Why can't you at least send me to a game where I'll marginally know several people and I can be out and about doing things? You know, being helpful. [Helpful?] Yeah, helpful. [Are you sur--] Yeah, I'm sure. Like that one place where there's apparently a lot of imPorts if they even still call it that. There's that floating turtle you can send me off to. I'd prefer those places anyday over collars that choke you to death and the zodiac gods that brand you with a tattoo that spews pheromones.

hawkethisnthat

Andraste's arse, woman, you're more persnickety than an Orlesian cheese seller. Do I really I have to pick up every moldy bit of cloth and glob of demonic goo in Kirkwall? Just because you "don't want to miss anything".

You need something better to do with your time. You could always send me somewhere new, you know.

manliestdamsel

No, we don't need to start a "Dating a Demon" Support group for three reasons:

One, It's stupid.
Two, If he ever found out I'd never hear the end of it.
Three, I'm not convinced any-one else is stupid enough to try it.

Now stop laughing at my pain and go something useful like actually get round to writing up the rest of my profle.

creature_conundrum

Ahh, just look at my boys! So young, so wet behind the ears, so full of unbridled potential. And look at where that potential ended up! I tell ya, I'm so proud of them.

It's interesting seeing where things started, innit? Almost makes me wanna bask in the nostalgia all night.

But! You've got some threadin' to do, dontcha. And that app of my buddy's you've got planned! And I've got a kid I owe an adventure to sometime. Nostalgia's nice and all, but just remember, there's plenty o'stuff to do now, too.

Now if you'll 'scuse me, I think I'm gonna take my own walk down memory lane for a while.

cetaceanops

Yeah, we're a thing, but that doesn't mean you can go pulling me off the Enterprise to annoy fellow Starfleet officers. Most of the ones around are from the 2200's, and cetaceans didn't start serving aboard Starfleet vessels until the advent of the Galaxy-class ship.

...plus I'm fairly sure you're not going to do anything beyond that anyways. Come back to me if you have a plan for a game, we'll talk then.

lastlogin

Mun, is it?

I'm so glad to be with you. Thank you for rescuing me and choosing me as your muse. I mean, it's unusual since I'm a AI and you're an RPer and... I'm just glad you're here, playing me!

~~Better than *Mute, at any rate.~~ Better than someone else more disagreeable.

But what kind of game would accept an AI like me? I... just need you, Mun. I don't really need anybody else. I only ever had one, two... three friends? Having more, I can't even begin to imagine.

I'm just so happy to be talking to someone that the thought of games is just, it's a bit too much!

countryofassholes

You're sick? What's that like?

[Like suffering and misery and dying.]

"Dying?" Oh, you're being dramatic again. Well just get better.

[... sob]

What?

maskedgoddess

You!

[ Without a moment hesitation, the Will of Soul Calibur draws her blade and points it to her mun's throat. Unlike the other "characters" the mun has played in the past, Elysium is proving to be more difficult than she's worth. ]

You are nothing more than an insignificant speck of dust within my path. Begone from my sight or perish along with the curse power that plagues this world! I will not stomach you or any other who dares to defy my will.

[ Suddenly now sprouting a pair of angelic white wings, Elysium glares down at her mun with sheer disgust. ]

Now go!

waytobealive

Look, I appreciate your renewed interest in me. It's flattering...I think.

But did it have to come with you reading so much porn? Why does that much porn of me exist? Colonel Kirk sure, Ronon I get, but I didn't even have a known first name for most of the show (which, by the way, Nick's not so bad but I could never see myself as a Marcus). That's got secondary character written all over it.

Though can I say, thanks for throwing in the occasional chick story. I was beginning to wonder there. I like the Colonel, Dex and the Docs but...I was beginning to wonder there.

Why don't you actually watch some Atlantis (you know, the actual show?)then we'll talk about this whole playing thing.

kaleidoscopeeyes

I guess I was asking for the username. I think the keywords are a little much, and so is the display name...

I'm not sure how I feel about roleplay. Isn't that how Alex prepared for everything? How do I know you're not, you know, setting people up?

stygianangel

You know this is really creepy, right? Even by my standards.

justadog

Oh don't get so down on yourself! You've plenty of talents. It just sometimes takes people a bit longer to realize them.

I never let Lirael mope, and let's be fair, she's got far more reason to do so than you.

itsfunnierinenochian

Your determination to 'get my voice down' is admirable. I just don't understand how you plan to do that without catching up with my 'canon.' Wouldn't it be beneficial if you watched the last 16 episodes instead of watching older clips of myself?

What I don't understand is why you've decided to 'pick me up' when you play the alternate version of myself. My other self's habit of giving into debauchery is much more to your liking, which is why I question your reasons for playing me.

Whatever you do, be sure to not send me to that den of iniquity you tend to frequent.

aeterna_filia

You want to place me in two games now?

Well, you're certainly going to be busy.

Unlike your other muses, I like change. These games both seem interesting enough to hold my attention for at least a little while. With any luck, they'll both provide some amusement as well.

The real question is this: Will they be able to hold your attention?

badatjokes

Frankly, madame, I don't see wvhy you'd bother wvith all a the trouble a making an account for me. It isn't as if you'vwe any idea wvhat to do wvith me. My descendant is already, as you'vwe described, "An ovwerreactivwe handful."

This wvon't go wvell for you.

flangerhanger

Why do you keep laughing about Daddy? He's not a duck...!

And it's "Flaversham".

[She's not really complaining, though. She knows where it comes from, and she has to admit there's a certain amount of fondness too because of that.

Speaking of...]

Are we really going to see him? I can't wait!

halftheman

You need to calm down. You know what you were told; there'd be an opportunity. Soon. No more, no less.

I don't see why you think it's so important that the coin come up good; soon as it comes down bad again, the barge will forget anything I might do 'right' and remember only what I've done 'wrong'. And I've done plenty wrong: Cassel Sharpe ring any bells? One good deed, one sacrifice, one-- anything, isn't going to change any minds after putting a seventeen year old con in traction. Doesn't matter that they have fancy magics to get him back on his feet within a day; we still nearly beat him to death. That's what they're going to remember, especially when a bad flip can make them remember just what we're capable of. The barge is fickle that way.

So cool it; bide your time and wait. You know better than I do what's coming next month... So waiting a couple more days for this month's clusterfuck won't hurt you.

Right then, squire. Let's have ourselves a little chat, shall we? First things first, though. Got a light?

[After readying one of his Silk Cut cigarettes, John fishes around in his trenchcoat pocket and pulls out a lighter that wasn't there before.]

Ah. Thanks, boss.

[He takes a moment to light up before moving on.]

Can't say I don't admire your good taste, but I can think of a few reasons as to why this little arrangement of ours won't cut it. You don't know the first thing about magic, and you don't know the first bloody thing about me, either! 'Least, you must not, if you think I'm your golden ticket to success. You've seen what happens to folks who stick around me for too long, yeah?

So let's do us both a favor. You keep to your costumes and crazies you're so bloody fond of, and I'll look the other way. How's that sound?

What's that? You don't think I can talk my way out of this one?

[He takes a heavy drag and blows it out.]

That's cute, mate. Real cute.

wrathfulkhan

[under breath] oh, great, you got your act together--

This is a bad idea and everyone who is enabling you to do this is either an idiot or a sadist.

I can give you five very good reasons why this isn't going to work: [He ticks them off on his fingers.] Two Starks. A Pepper. That guy who's masquerading at being a Khan. [HE IS THE ONLY TRUE KHAN, DAMMIT.] And it's your idea in the first place, which means it's terrible by default.

[Hey man, it's not my fault you're going to end up in a solitary feelings jam and/or getting your ass kicked by half the turtle for being...well, you.] Yes it is! It's your fault, and I'm not going to participate!

Don't you tell me I don't have a choice.

[It won't be so bad. Just think: Double the Starks means DOUBLE THE FRIENDS. :D]

...

I changed my mind. You are both an idiot and a sadist.

Great. I've got some fucking yuppie who thinks she could possibly understand what it's like to be me.

Spend some time outside of privilege and actually sleep with a girl, then you come back to me and make a better attempt.

gave_up_that_life

Hey Munzi,

It's cool if you don't app me this cycle. Wait a month, see if you can juggle two characters in one game, see if you still want to play me after the break. Maybe put me somewhere else. Hey, I gotta help out my team anyway. Superhero teams all work on the East Coast, so we West Coasters gotta work overtime. I've never been real keen on leaving my world, but since most of them have a time stop clause, it's whatevs to me. Maybe you'll find another game other than your original choice. Might be easier.

Anyway, I'm fine with all this jazz. You got priorities to think of. I know that. Wish I could've gone to college like you. But that's the way the dice rolled for me.

Out,

Boltblast

panicandfreeze

Listen Mun,

I don't know about you, but I don't want to die. In fact, I have a strictly no dying policy here. So this insane plan you have to try and vanquish Rumplestilstkin crossing a Upper Level Demon Vanquish potion, the Source vanquishing spell and the potion to separate a witch's powers? It's crazy. There isn't enough jacklebeet in the world.

You know what's going to happen? I'm going to make this potion, throw it at him and the world is going to explode. And he'll still be there.

And then you know what? He'll kill me.

Try another plan. In fact, try getting some sanity. I hear they have it at the corner store. And pick up some eggs.

councils

Quit with the needless worrying. It's going to be fine.

automailninja

I am honored that you decided to pick me up as a muse, Miss Mundane.

I don't know what you plan to do with me, but I have duties I should get back to. Must find the prince. I fear what that homunculus has done with him. There has to be a way to free the young master from its influence. I will not fail him again.

.....

What was that, Miss Mundane? I cannot resume my search? You want to use me for... memes? I am unfamiliar with that term.

xochipilli_cursed

So who is this Riddick guy you are excited for?

...

Oh.

I'm going to die, aren't I?

"If you're unlucky," isn't as funny a statement as you think it is.

papa_scythe

You can't expect me to be all right with the idea of my precious daughter trapped in another world without anyone she knows! No decent parent would think that was okay!

[Death Scythe do you really think you're a decent parent.]

erotomaniacal

Nn... You must think I'm s-stupid... Th-that's it, right? Right!?

I... I know you don't have a muse for me. Who would willingly play someone as disgusting as meeeee...? I'm an ugly duckling compared to your other muses... So why would you– Oh, I knooooow...!

I'm so revolting to you, a-aren't I? You're only playing me because– because you p-pity me! That's it...!

Well, I don't n-need your pity, mun! I... I don't need anyone's pity...!

beschutzer

You're worrying too much... Please don't trouble yourself like this over me! If I could go somewhere I'd be able to help the others, it'd mean a lot, but other than that...

I just hope everyone else is doing alright.

leekspins

.......I'm going to be a pony?

[Slowly, but surely, the blank stare changes into one of utter delight.]

I'm going to be a pony! Yes! This is something completely new, I can't wait to try it out! Nice work! I don't even mind if no one else from my cast shows up, it's going to be so much fun--

...d-did you say Ulquiorra-san is going to be a pony too...?

[She can't take it. She busts up laughing, almost crying at the hilarious thought of someone so stoic being made so adorable.]

Ah ha ha ha ha ha! Yaaaaaayyyyy!

ifiwin

Right.

So, first of all I just want to say congratulations on your amazing failure to turn your application in on time. You having to wait another week now is no one's fault but your own and I'm gonna suggest you invest in a planner, or maybe actually using that smart phone of yours. It has a neat little function called a calendar, you know? It has dates and months on it. The thing is useful and not just for playing, oh--I don't know.

Minecraft.

Second of all. Maybe during this week of thought you should actually be considering the situation you're bringing me into. Items to tick off? Write this down because we've already covered that your memory is poor at best. [A small pause.] Medical care, likelihood of asylums actually existing and the educational system.

Also--repeat after me. Giant turtle.

terriblesister

GAH!

You can't do this! You can't separate me from Mei! Not now! This isn't fair! This should be illegal! How can you do this- it's an invasion of privacy! Privacy!

Is Mei even going to be on here?

This isn't faaaaiiiiir--!!

Look, I don't even know what an "EU" is, let alone whether it would matter that I don't come from it and you haven't read most of it. All I know is I don't want to be stuck with him. My friends need me.

Wait. You said... my mother?

bemycopilot

It's certainly been a while, Miss Mundane! For a moment, I thought you forgot about me...

So. What sorts of adventures are we going to go on today?

[Cloud is glaring at his Mun, his posture unrelentingly and unforgivingly tense.]

Why did you have to take away my memories of her? Like it isn't hard enough...

[He gives his head a hard shake, flexing his fingers in aggravation.]

There better be a way I can get them back or you can forget about me helping you.

[...]

I wouldn't mind seeing Tifa again. You know that. But they're not the same. I don't feel the same about them. You know that too.

[In other words: don't make me get into it.]

Just give me a break.

kcrighthand

I don't want to have to keep explaining myself. I don't have time for this nonsense. The only thing I belong to is Kaiba Corporation, and by being here, I'm wasting Seto-sama's precious time. [.......]

Please tell me you, at the very least, understand that this is not good for anyone involved. [FROWNFROWNFROWNFROWN]

[D_M, there's a skeleton in here. A very irritated looking, runty skeleton in an expensive suit taking long drags off of an unfiltered cigarette. He stays silent for a few moments giving a world weary sigh and speaking up, his voice tinged with a heavy Mexican accent.]

Por favor mundane. Just leave me to rest in peace already. I've had enough adventure to last a lifetime.

Figuratively speaking, of course.

runsoncola

I could tell just by looking at you that we would be kindred spirits, Player-dono. You clearly must possess high level astral sight in order to have recognized my potential! A rare trait indeed! However, if you truly wish to play me efficiently you must first be willing to put in a suitable amount of time and effort via level grinding and repetitive quests that will take hours before their completion.

...by that I mean you must canon review and tag around with me. Getting a strong feel for my voice is a must! Only then can I fulfill my dream to become the very best, like no one ever was! No doubt the two of us working together will achieve true glory!

stampofaccrual

My dear miss, and please, call me Moist if you will, I don't mean to bring attention to any sort of ignorance but...surely you're aware that there are characters out there with far more development? Yes, it's true! A whole plethora of sorts, all with varying degrees of wit and charm and, more importantly, credibility. Why, I've heard there are some who can even fire lasers from their eyes or turn things to gold with a single touch! Surely a simple former postmaster pales in comparison to such debonair sorts?

No, no. Don't feel pity for me at all. I promise you, I will find a way to make due as you search for a more fulfilling avatar for your ever-dwindling well of free time. For free time is such a precious commodity, isn't it? Of course it is. Yours most of all.

So yes, I insist that you have all sorts of adventures with your superheroes, your mages, and your talking animals. I will be perfectly content to sit on the side and continue on as things are.

shadowscall

I know you think the 'co-parenting with a creeper' thing is funny, but you're not seriously going to try and talk to Bakura and Sera's muns about that, right? Right? The kid's going to pick up the wrong stuff from somewhere - maybe even me - but you really want me to 'share custody' with that psycho?

Stick with being shy, it might ruin my life less.

andnowisee

Mun,

Sometimes I truly wonder about you, especially since you seem to be getting so much enjoyment out of what has been happening lately.

I'm not sure what is worse, allowing me to remain unaffected by the storm or if I had been affected. On one hand, my memory hasn't been altered, on the other... most everyone else's has.

All I wish is for this week to be over.

unscrappable

Are you satisfied now that you know everything thoroughly? Well. You guessed most of it, which makes it easier for me in the end. And I'm glad we share the same appreciation for good wine. [He smiles like that's an inside joke. And it is.]

But I wonder if you would really try to send me somewhere...? Your track record isn't exactly promising and I'm not one for taking pointless trips away from work. It would be fun though, if I could meet some of Aoba-san's friends. We've never really had the chance to get acquainted.

weruntheshow

[A low chuckle echos throughout the room]

We didn't think you'd go through with it.

At least we can have our fun, now.

Hello! Excuse me! I think the way you're using 'side character syndrome' isn't nice!

endless_life_forever

My misery only brings you amusement. I knew that from the beginning, so I know I'm powerless to stop it, but I'm not going to encourage you by reacting.

I know you'll simply use my feelings against me as usual. You pretend to care, but really, it's only to find out what makes me tick, and how to break me.

Anything you do will never be enough. I'm already broken.

[Cue an overdramatic sigh.]

I hope I wasn't dreaming.....

myobjective

Ya know, I'm glad you didn't forget 'bout me an' all, but I'm still not real fond'a the idea of somebody controllin' me. 'Sides, you're a lot more comfortable with my sister, right? So I think you oughta just stick with her.

Plus, you keep on complainin' bout how none'a your friends have played my game, so what's the point in playin' me, huh? To get 'em to play? If they don't, I'm stuck with all my friends not knowin' who I am. An' how do y'think that makes me feel? Havin' to go through it all again. Worryin' if they'll like me or not. S'not fun, wonderin' if your friends are gonna turn on ya all'a sudden.

dead_wife

I have no complaints. I could not be more pleased to be chosen for this world.

[She chuckles softly against her curled fingers.]

Did you expect a protest? I admit, I am curious to see how events will fall into place. A chance to see my little sister again, and to perhaps make amends, is something I truly desire.

Exercise patience. We are both in no rush, and you may wish to refine details once you've had some rest.

justlove

So, hold on, you're going from sticking me in Wonderland to sticking me in Asgard?

Maybe a better question is, how are you going to balance both?

accipitridae

Sir. First Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye, reporting for duty, sir.

...Though this is not precisely the duty I'd thought to be called upon to fulfill.

affrays

Alright, so maybe this isn't the weirdest idea you've had in the past few months, but ... you can't just expect me to be okay with this, right?

One book doesn't exactly make you an expert. Trust me, I would know. ( she sighs a wistful sort of sigh. ) I appreciate the attention. Really. It's just— ( there's a pause, Clary shifts. ) You're not even listening to me, are you?

Great. Because that always bodes well.

antigrav

Ahaha- isn't this cute. You, a stupid mortal, would try your hand at playing me.

Still, this might be amusing. I think I'll indulge you, for now.

parricided

( cut for mild spoilers for 3x12! )

broke_harlem

You know, you could just...let me stay here. You could go back to finishing school, doing something semi-productive with your life. If letting me play causes you stress and unhappiness, then what's the point?

Trust me, I've managed on my own before. I'll be fine. [And you're trying to get out of having more misery inflicted on you.] Yes, that's very true, too.

gleans

Look, I know it's not even my decision, but I think I might be kinda done with the game scene for now. And look at your fucking workload, man, are you serious? Like, to be totally honest, I'd rather stick to whatever crazy-ass AU meme crap you guys come up with than get stuck in one place again, slowly losing my fucking mind. Again. And maybe we can start coming up with something solid in the meantime. Maybe not story, but even musically. It's been a while.

It ebbs and flows, man. This is like -- annual hibernation. Bear-approved. It's fine, don't worry so much.

I think we have issues.
