This is not what I signed up for.

[ cigarette holder to mouth, puff puff aw yeah ]

Your plans are flimsy at best. Think this through more.

THIS IS THE WORST USERNAME YOU'VE EVER COME UP WITH!!

The hell is your problem?! You have plenty of other journals that work a lot better than this one! Take it back!!

justicereigns

All right mun, yes... let's talk.

[Ohhhhh Smoker is hella pissed. And it shows.]

I think you know full well why you've been neglecting my tags in favor of others, and it has nothing to do with waning interest or lack of "voice." You're simply being childish, and frankly, a bit of a coward. Really, I expected better from you.

[Wow, does anyone else get chewed out by their muse?]
[He takes out the cigars and points out a lecturing finger.]

You want to know the real problem? [~~I can't handle the truth?~~]

You already know it.

Instead of following your justice, you're scared of being disliked. Get the fuck over it!

I can hold my own just fine, but man the fuck up already. I'll be here when you're done growing up.

Do not chicken out on my app or threads again. Consider that an order.

headsflying

No formal plan, no self restraint, no common sense at all. And you wonder why I have very little faith in you.

Me? I'd rather do nothing and be sent nowhere. But I doubt my preferences would sway your final decision, as poor as it'll turn out to be, I'm sure. It's a wonder your head hasn't drifted away since it's obviously full of nothing but hot air.

...

[flatly:] That wasn't meant to be a joke.

gambliar

It's simply amazing what you can find online, isn't it? To think, someone would go to all the trouble of creating an alternate universe where I'm the protagonist. Most lesser people would say how surprising it is, but the only surprise here is that it took so long. Really, it's about time someone brought some much needed culture and sophistication into this story.

...with that having been said, I do wish this version of myself would contact the nearest salon. That unruly hair sticking out from her otherwise flawless head simply will not do. In fact, while such a thing could possibly be considered barbaric, even simply chopping it off with a pair of scissors would suffice.

[But Celes, you pretty much have to have an ahoge to be a protagonist in this series. Naegi, Hinata, etc.]

...you know, I would find your statement much more believable if you could type it with a straight face, Mundane-kun. Laughter is not helping your case at all.

fry_bitch

A pirate game? Interesting choice, Mun. Are you sure you know what you're doing?

I thought as much.

I do look forward to meeting this other woman you say is a lot like me.

light_it_up

Cheer up, mun.

I mean it. No sarcasm, for once - I really think we're gonna be alright. You were worried about icons, but, mashalla, you made a pretty good set given you didn't even have what I looked like pinned down. You worried about the application and got it in on time anyway. Clearly, we're working well together. I'll be the one with dashing good looks and super powers, and you'll be the brains of the outfit. Kinda like my parents, except we're not so conservative and neither of us own sweatervests.

So, my app. You need to quit worrying about whether it'll be accepted. If it isn't, there's next month, which gives you all of September to voicetest me until even I'm tired of talking. We've got this whole show on the road. No worries on my end, so long as you don't go down the angst road with me. I don't exactly make a habit of showing my heart to the world. You may have been right about wanting to take on a darker character, but you picked me. Wise choice. My backstory isn't a mile and a half long like most characters you like.

Just relax and go to bed. Get some sleep, and you can fiddle with icons later.

reachedwordlimit

[ Was that a sign of emotion on Squall's face? It certainly looks like he's frowning more than he usually is. it also seems like he's mulling over his words even more than usual. ]

No. You are not going to put me into that situation.

[I am not going to rely on people for that...]

I refuse.

[Plus, I don't have those kinds of urges...]

selfmadeprincess

This new game...it is styled exactly as the first one you enrolled me in. Magic mirrors and all!

When one door closes, another opens...but seldom is it an identical door to the one that closed!

I will be sure to not waste this rare chance. This time, I will succeed.

bring_the_beatdown

Look lady, I don't get you. First you're all complainin' that you've got too much ta do, and now you don't got nuthin' and you're complaining about that.

There's plenty you could be doing. See, I'll even make you a list being the awesome helper I am:

1. Find me some hot chicks to talk to.
2. Find me some guys to punch.
3. Find more hot chicks to impress with stories 'bout those otha guys I punched.

And when you're done wit that, start again wit' number one. Capiche?

relictusdeus

Victor Belmont, is it? ...And the very last of his clan? [Isaac sighs with theatrical flair and leans deeply into his seat, rolling his eyes.] Good riddance. I was beginning to think we would never be rid of them.

[And by we he means I. No solidarity with the mun here.

He can't help but wonder sometimes, while considering the other Belmonts he has met here and elsewhere, if other devil forgemasters surfaced after Hector and himself. Perhaps their kind died with them.

After a moment he decides to have another look at the image the mun has provided him, leveling it an appraising, critical look in the hopes of making out more of the details.]

...Dear me, 'twould seem they become progressively uglier the further one looks down they line. [A laugh bubbles out of him.] I suppose it serves this one well. A lesser demon shall have but one look at him and balk, running for the hills.

[Uhhh, I'm not sure I think so, Isaac]

My sweet Lady Mundane, I do not recall asking you your opinion.

reginleif

Mundane, I don't know if this is such a good idea. As King of Renais, I have a strong obligation to keep our nation fortified and lend aid to others who have suffered because of the war.

But it would seem that I can't really focus on that if I am to be here.

Still, I don't like what you're planning. You are sending me to "games". Said games try at one's will and determination and tug at one's sanity.

If I didn't know any better, you're insane yourself.

Your resolve is shaky so might I suggest un-shaking them before you act.

notmonsters

You'll get off that computer and stop lookin' for a community for me if you know what's good for you.

You're so in over your head you're about to be six feet under. There have only been three episodes of my show. Ya need to take a step or ten back until you get to know me better before you start making commitments.

And besides, I ain't going nowhere without my family, understand? They need me.

identity_thief

Really? The great Gatsby with a twist of Cthulhu and cults? Definitely sounds interesting, just don't blow it.

streetfighting

Look, it's very simple. If you think you can do it, do it. If you think you can't, don't do it.

[Is that your advice? Seriously?]

You don't need anything else.

luckandpluck

... you can't be serious about bringing me here.

I thought we had some kinda agreement 'bout where it is you're gonna go shoving me around. I mean, c'mon, I like attention and I like people and I like all the things that come in between, but... y'know everybody's got a limit. You can barely keep me up in other places as it is.

... mm, fine though. 'Guess I'll stick 'round here and see if any interesting stuff comes up or... something.

thekiller

Five days ain't that long of a fucking wait.

fionnuisce

I don't know how clearly I can state this.

Do not go looking for Flat Eskardos. Do not put me in a room, much less an eldritch tower, with him.

Do not do the thing that you are attempting to do. Even a saint wouldn't have the patience I'd need to deal with him on top of everything else.

fangboner

While I sure do appreciate this gilded cage you call a headspace, I just have to ask one thing.

This username was really the best you could come up with? Yes, I saw it was available. That doesn't mean it has to be mine, you know. It's not as if I get a... (ugh, fuck you, Jessica)... "fang boner" for every hot guy that--okay, stop that snickering!

[Siiiiiigh. Being dead and fabulous is so difficult.]

I know what you're planning, too. Me... a Maker? I'm not quite sure if I'm ready for that responsibility. I barely got my own powers under control! You think I can help a newborn deal with theirs?

I'm not saying 'no'. Not exactly. Just bringing up some concerns for you to think about it. That's all.

solitary_black

You're going to let me mingle with people here? Is that what you mean? I have studies to do, but I suppose meeting new people can't hurt that much, can it? Yet, your idea of entertainment is a little different to mine. At least, it gets me away from my sister, Walburga, for a bit. She keeps going on at me about my so called "behaviour." I have no idea what she means, as I am doing everything I can do secure my grades at school. I won't bring shame upon the family either that way. [Not that I care much.]

So, new pastures to walk down it seems. This place does seem much different to the halls of Hogwarts. I wonder if I can find a Quidditch pitch around here somewhere, as I'm itching to fly again. Slytherin need to beat Ravenclaw this year to secure the Quidditch cup. You know I like Quidditch, so don't give me that look, mundane. I also like being alone sometimes and gazing up at the stars, thinking how I'm going to get through these NEWTS coming up. [sigh.] So much to do.

scissorplay

♫Gatcha Gatcha Gatcha Gaaaaaaatchaman~!♫

[ Hajime looks up from what she's cutting, with the widest smile on her face. ]

Oh? Did you come to borrow scissors, mun-chan? I have all kinds! Like these ladybug ones, or this one looks like a frog!

[ No, no, Hajime pls. There is more important things to talk about.. ]

Did you want to talk about the last episode? Shouldn't you wait for more people to see it?

chang_wufei

Mun.

I hate you.

Chang

aphoenixsong

I look forward to your plans for me. All I ask is that you take my age into consideration. I am not as young as I used to be.

[Dumbledore, I can spot that BS from a mile away. It's like a rocket ship of BS.]

alotofpaperwork

[Very tightly] Thank you at least, for not using. "Check out that horse." or any variation thereof.

coldesthug

Mun!!!

You miss me, da? You play with me?

[Well Belarus (

bratzhena) will do nothing but stab people for hugs... and stab them more after they've hugged.]

I love hugs Mun. They should all hug me!

...and England should love me!

[ooc: Feel free to request either of them on the header]

denizens

Oh my, it seems you've not forgotten me yet. I must say I'm flattered to have made such an impact on you. Could it be a bond is forming between the two of us?

( Elizabeth pauses, her expression and tone remaining the same still as she resumes. )

... That was a joke. I could, of course, immediately sense a bond if there were one and would not need to ask such a question. You may laugh now.

somepartsbroken

Look miss puppeteer, I know you think your doing good by your friend.

However, I am not about to switch my sexual orientation to fill the void in Kurt's heart. Nor will you force me. We both know you will not watch Glee, despite the rising interest, you wont watch Hannibal, you surely will not watch Glee.

What we need is a large box, some duct tape and a cattle prod. Stay with me on this. I have a point.

We will simply have to look through the multiverse for another version of Mr. Anderson to sweep our baby bird off his feet. With a new clone or version of Blaine, Kurt will be sad no more and we can return to our wacky adventures with everyone.

So, box, duct-tape and cattle prod. We find Blaine Anderson, trap him in the box, tape it closed and prod him if he tries to escape. Then deliver the box to Kurt!

Sound good? Yes? no?... what. Shut up. It's brilliant!

pluvial

Haha, oh man, it really has been a long time, huh? But hey, I'm glad you still remember me though! Last round was a lot of fun, so let's make this one better, okay?

And yeah, I guess I'm kind of excited too! I've warmed the bench long enough, don't you think?

dork_of_keys

Mun, you're thinking about this too much.

[Pot and kettle anyone?]

H-hey, that isn't fair. I mean... yeah, I think about stuff too much or get a little down sometimes. But my friends usually snap me out of it. Who says I can't do the same thing for you?

[The Mun does.]

Oh come on. You want things to turn out okay just as much as anyone else does and it still can. That's why you're thinking about it in the first place, isn't it?

[Actually, no.]

... Now that isn't right. Look, I know why this is bugging you and I agree that it really shouldn't have happened the way it did. But, you haven't even heard back from anyone you need to hear from yet. Don't you think it's a little early to be thinking the worst of the situation?

[Says the guy that never thinks the worst of a situation even when he is feeling down.]

Exactly!

grandlineswag

[It's pretty clear that Crocodile thinks very carefully about any words he uses, considering how long he's taking that drag off his cigar.]

Hm. While I will admit that all of the excitement in the air has a certain pull to it, I'd suggest using a bit of caution. The last thing you need is to get in over your head, boy. We all know how that usually ends, don't we? A lot of pointless stress and meaningless talk, ending in you being no better off than before.

I'll not moor myself to a ship with no rudder to it. If you're truly going to do this, then get to it and stop second-guessing. I detest indecision almost as much as I do outright stupidity.

accede

You're getting really obsessive for someone who's not even sure if my canon is viable to apply from. Not to mention, you have two other scientists you could have played, and you pick me? I guess there's no talking you out of it, but I'm warning you that you shouldn't get your hopes up.

singsalong

Fuck off. Tone deaf? My pipes are golden.

memor

Oh, nice of you to blow the dust and cobwebs away. How long's it been now? Eight, nine months? Long enough, thanks. I get that you have a thing for blondes, but come on, us redheads have to stick together sometimes.

I know you like me better. [ That .. is entirely not true, I like you equal amounts. ] Hey, I'll tie for first. Just don't put me back in storage again, alright? It's bloody cramped in here.

shinra_dog

You finally put out for me t' get me more icons? Aw, mun, I'm flattered. It's about time I got some more, anyway -- d'you know how hard it is t' express yerself with only 15 emotions?

Well, I guess ya do kinda understand.... So then ya know it sucks!

Alright, we got 85 more slots t' fill up, let's get t' work! An' I expect plenty that's appropriate for

amatomnes, we're gonna smut it up an' no half-asssin' it. Your idea t' put me there, now ya gotta follow it up. Expectations, mun, expectations.

I think we have issues.
