Honey, we both know you don't have time for another game.

I'm sure there are plenty of kids there who need a mother's touch - and I am the ultimate mother - but I'm going to have to put my foot down. Your health comes first! You really don't eat enough, and you've had a headache all night. Don't make me shut this computer off, young lady!

Can I make you some chicken soup?

natzoom

[......]

I don't have an opinion about this. You're free to do whatever you want; you don't need to worry about me complaining.

Please try and find a place without too many spirits, though?

Please?

climb

[ A slowness to her words in coming but all of them clipped, learned under a long shadow she calls home. ]

You have too many sounds in the head. All are yours... but none a friend.

And, so.

What am I doing here?

led

Not this again. I believe we've said our goodbyes enough times.

It's not like it was, you know.

[ And what he means is: we both do so don't be more moronic than you've already been, no offense and maybe a touch of you were supposed to do this days ago, so as far as starters go, this track record is already horrible. ]

And using Edmund as a bargaining chip's no good. We already have a life.

[ The one left to them, at any rate. Life within a life: a secret of necessity in a time and place that would accept no important part of it. ]

goodwithdamage

Okay, alright, I get it. You rewatched the piece of crap movie and now you're feeling the missing feels for yours truly. Yeah. Figures.

You know this isn't even going to work, we tried it on the other place and you did nothing with me there - hell you haven't even gotten me new icons or anything like that.

It's not that I don't appreciate the sentiment an' all, 'cause yeah, it's cool to be remembered once in a while, but I think I'm ... done with the whole slaying thing. She doesn't need me anymore and it's not like you'll figure out what to do with me while I'm here.

... You know... whatever, mun. Do what you want. Just ... she's okay, yeah? Yeah. Then we're good.

austerite

My dear Madame,

While I am perfectly content that you have somehow found it within your power to remove me from the vile indoctrination grounds some call a school, and far away from the control of my parents, what, if anything, makes you suspect that you hold sway over anything I do?

Do you possess some knowledge I am lacking, or some power you seek to exercise over me, because I can assure you here and now that you will never win through such a means. If we do anything, we shall do it by mutual leave,meaning that I must be agreed on all the points as much as you.

If you do not seek to play things by that tune, then you and I are both in for one very memorable, very long experience. I do not cede control easily, and then, and only then to powers I've found worthy or admirable.

You, of course, are nothing of the sort.

Do you wish me to work with you?

Then rise to the occasion and prove yourself worthy of my time and efforts. Otherwise, I do have work to do.

72demons

Still trying to decide what to do with me, hm? I'm a very complicated person, I suppose. All these motives you don't understand yet.

.. No, don't be silly, I'm joking. You can easily take me within the first years of my rule and sidestep that business of my death and Dantalion's part in it altogether. Isn't that nice? I can't promise I'll be happy, but I do smile beautifully, don't I? And I suppose I shall be alone where I go. Not a king, not a wise man, not a prisoner. Not God's favored or Lucifer's beloved or master of anyone or anything at all.

It might be nice to be ordinary. To simply.. forget. Everything. And if I must question my scars, I can certainly make up interesting stories for them.

No, no. It's not that. It's not at all that I don't love them, I do. I love every one of them so very dearly. It's only that.. I might try my hand at forgetting that all these cracks and chipped places are here. Little bits and pieces of me just crumbling off like badly made pottery. I am so very tired of being a cup that cannot hold water.

I'm simply.. tired. So let's try something else. 'King Solomon' is wearying to the ear.

nobirdy

Aaw, don't make that face, mun! This is weird enough as it is without you acting all funny. Anybirdie would be glad to be here, after all. Just take it one step at a time. I'm sure your instincts will kick in soon enough. And then we'll be in perfect shape!

ensorcelling

Aw! So I still have to wear the mask around people? That's not fair. How am I supposed to make friends if I got this stupid thing strapped to my face? You've seen it yourself! It would make puppies and babies cry! I tried to make it look nicer by painting on it but it seems I made it worse.

Please please please please let me take it off? Just for a while. I'm not in the school anymore and there's no one here! It's not like the Headmistress will find out that I'm not following the rules.

... I think the Headmistress won't find out she seems to know everything that happens even when she's not around. [Ariel sighs, conceding over this one matter. She doesn't want to get in trouble. She's already in hot water for somehow sneaking out of the school thanks to her Mun.] Fine. I'll wear the mask for now. For now. Can we do something fun at least? You promised something neat will happen if you let me out!

Huh? What's 'survival horror'? Is that important?

apatheic

. . .

This is pointless.

federalbureauofimmortals

What's the deal with sticking me with the likes of them? I'm not a criminal, blood thirsty murderer or pervert! They are all little monsters who still somehow have the right to call themselves human. You know how frustrating that is? The Camorra, the mafia, serial killers and street punks can all go to hell for all I'm concerned. Considering those guys, I don't even want to think about the ones not from my world.

They aren't even part of my job. Those bastards just always seem to show up when the others do. At least they'll be gone before that mess in the 2000's.

...

What do you mean that crybaby had kids?

bestsilenttreatment

[An old woman sits in a chair and examines her hands with mild interest, arching one eyebrow.] As convenient as these seem to be, I prefer my natural form.

[She folds the hands in her lap and smiles a small, secret smile, like she knows something her mun doesn't. Which she really shouldn't, since muns know all, but she's somehow managing it.] I suppose I should take the opportunity to see this world a little more up close. There is only so much you can see from an outsider's perspective, you know. [She stands up, wrapping herself in a black shawl that only makes the white in her skin and hair more stark. There's no slowness to her movements or weakness in her stance, as there should be with her apparent age. Instead, she radiates a strange aura, and it seems like only her face is old.]

Although, I would like to ask why you decided on this--oh, what was the word?--username.

[Uh... you brought a boy back to life and then didn't talk to him for three hundred years?]

Oh, Jack Frost, you mean? [She shrugs casually.] Three hundred years is a trifling amount of time. I am sure you could have decided on something more significant to comment on.

tailmon

... Mundane, it's been years. Why are you doing this?

[She gives her mundane an incredulous look before sighing.]

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. You humans are just as strange as you are unpredictable. Yes, I know you have all of the episodes, but I've seen what you do with us 'muses'. To put it bluntly...

You're just as annoying as PicoDevimon and as ruthless as Lord Vamdemon. And, no, that isn't a compliment.

[Then again, it's not like she had much else to do. Perhaps she can humor her mundane for a while.]

lostcrystal

We're getting nowhere like this, you know.

I get that you're nervous, especially since this'll be your first time rping on this site. You're worried that you're not good enough, and I understand that! It's natural. You're only human. But you can't keep letting these things get to you forever. You fuss so much over every little detail that in the end nothing gets done, when sometimes you just have to work through the fear and do what you need to do.

[She pauses, then smiles just a little.]

And you're more than capable of that, mun. I know you are. You don't give yourself enough credit.

debts

You have a habit of making things harder than they have to be.

It's not hard to choose one thing over the other.

plusonesecond

Let's summarize:

I'm an overworked, underpaid SWAT cop, who's already lost one arm, who for whatever reason you decided to let have a motocross accident that landed me in the hospital with a concussion and various flesh wounds.

My alleged boyfriend, who has never actually taken me on a date, didn't come by to see how I was doing, but I haven't even seen him in three weeks, although that's not really anyone's fault since his mun has the flu or something.

In fact, the only person who visited me was my brother, which was a given since he's my brother.

So since I have no friends and right now no boss, you've sent me back out on the warpath to find and shoot the bastard who caused me to have my arm amputated, and I've already gotten into one fistfight.

I think it's perfectly normal that I'm feeling lonely, upset and in need of a drink.

Current Mood: aggravated

dicey

You are really lucky that you have me as a character, 8ecause I think I've already proven myself to 8e a gr8 advertiser! Remember when I got you that huge cast a while 8ack? (Ignore anyone who says other characters and OOC recruitment had a lot to do with that too, it was totally all me.) Well, here I am again, to make sure we have a good showing for visitors week! 8ecause who WOULDN'T want to come hang out in a post-apocalyptic city and get the chance to meet and interact wiiiiiiiith:

- My friends.
- My enemies!
- My fake family, I guess???????? Or whatever else you would call my roomm8s, my quadrantm8s, and the King of Nightmares, Fear, and Mayhem.
- And, of course, me!

Oh yeah, and I guess you can do stuff with other people unrelated to me, too. In your downtime. Which will only happen when you're too overwhelmed with awesome to 8e around me for any longer, so why 8other talking a8out that! My player is making me 8ring it up 8ecause apparently she thinks people will 8e interested in more than just me and my people (I know, I know; I don't get it either!), 8ut she never said I had to do more than just mention it in passing. ::::)

So what are you w8ing for? Mark your calendars! You don't want to miss this!

organ_pharming

Yes, I've noted your reaction to that one 'panel', as you call it.

What can I say? The shedding of my sanity must have included my professional impulse to curb any seductive displays of my, admittedly fantastic, body.

Oh, if only Ambulon could have been there to see it. He's been harping on me forever to loosen up. Tsk.

euforia

I've heard of the way you work from the others.

Your playing me will make it impossible for me to be happy.

No. The pirate game would not be ironic, or good for me.

his_nemesis

What? You're sending me where? An enchanted castle, not unlike Hogwarts? But why? You know I have been set a very important task by Dumbledore. The Horcruxes aren't going to be destroyed themselves you know. [He sighs, pinching his nose.]

You say Hermione is there already? Or a Hermione. Well, maybe she can help me destroy them then. What? The castle is not even in this world? What are you playing at? You have lost your senses. You-Know-Who is out there, right now. I can't let him win this. Not after all the sacrifices everyone has put into fighting him. Can I persuade you to overlook this? Maybe you can take me to this castle after the War has finished? When You-Know-Who is dead. That will be a good time.

Not now though. Please?

nerzhul

It's past time for this.

I have been forced to be a passive audience for the boy's complaining, but am I not simply a corrupting voice whose only significance is the effects I have on your favorite. I am a person in and of myself. I have ideas. Plans.

If you won't listen to me, perhaps she will.

flirtyengineer

Hey, mun.

Don't get too choked up. I know tomorrow morning is the last episode, and that sucks, but you know that things worked out okay. The network didn't get sold for parts and we all still have jobs, and we're happy. You don't have anything to be sad about.

[Except for that it's the last episode.]

Well, yeah. But we're all still living on. Magic of roleplay and all that.

So go ahead and watch the episode tomorrow morning and enjoy. But don't be sad. And if you really need a hug, I'll be over here waiting for Dan. With my giant blue margarita.

Current Mood: content

rightinmylap

I don't really think you thought this through, so I'm just going to sit back with a drink and watch you self destruct.

Let me stop you before you make any more stupid decisions, no games.

Oh and none of those... What are they called? You know.. those--things. The ones with all the people and bad choices... No, not strip clubs? What kind of guess is that? No! Not fundraisers. Though, truth be told really a fairly accurate guess.

No. The things... The-- OH YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT-- none of those!

I don't even know what I'm doing here. I mean... is it really necessary that you drag me out here?

I'm too old for this shit. I still don't understand the Twitter. Have fun, but don't expect me to be sober.

magicath

I've never been too big on the meta stuff, you know, so this is just weird. Though, good job grabbing up my Fanfixx account name.

I'd just like to point out how incredibly unfair it is that my chances of meeting Harry Potter characters here are so high, but I'll probably never, ever get to meet any Simon Snow characters? I mean, what's Harry/Draco slashfic compared to Simon/Baz fic?

And don't even get me started on the fact that you've never and will never read the books. How do you even expect to play me somewhere if you don't have absolute knowledge of the characters that are so important to me.

Just...think about it? I'm not really okay with going somewhere new anyway. I was just getting used to where I was.

notblayde

You're still not funny.

britannicide

[mildy amused.]

You can keep staring at me all you want, that's not going to suddenly conjure up a response from me.

Your lack of an outlet is not my problem.

onefool

As much as I appreciate your... enthusiasm, I find I can't help but try and speak words of caution. Do you recall the promise you made not only to yourself, but all of us? Your compatriots and your charges alike. I thought the plan was to take it slow, not to hurry along after those you want to cast your die with.

Not that you'll listen. Not really. [A half-grin, then, more cryptically than it seems:] But a man does what he can.

[... a long, awkward pause. Then:] A request, though? Please, stop the ... [Will shakes his head.] No, never mind. [Because actually putting it to words would bring more trouble than he feels like dealing with. And it's not like the mundane doesn't know what he was about to ask. :I]

enforcernomore

No Mun, this isn't something I can just get over like it's nothing and I don't see where you get off being amused. Where do people get off getting on our cases about our citizen protection unit...yeah we can't really call it a police force, when they won't either help us out or even set up some kind of legal system to define what is and isn't against the law?

As it is now we don't even have fifteen members, we're about to lose at least one of our heads, and one of our commanders is in a serious situation and can't work. And if we went off of just being able to arrest people for things not legal back home then most of Paradise would be behind bars for one thing or another and we'd be the bad guys for making these calls without the majority.

It just makes me mad. If someone's got a problem with things in the city, change them, don't gripe about the people already trying to change them because you think they're not good enough. I just needed to get that off my chest.

dreamsofwings

Don't you have better things to do than drag me around? You can't just make me do whatever you want because it's fun. I have more important things to do back home.

Don't try to tell me I should do it for Mikasa, either! I'm not letting you use her against me like that!

[ he sounds determined enough, but he might have wavered a little bit on that last part. Not that he's willing to admit it. ]

chinchinpurin

MUUUNDAAANE-SAAAAAN!

[ GUESS WHO IS VERY EXCITED TO BE HERE! kazumi claps her hands together, gleefully. ]

I'm so excited! I can't wait! It's not Asunaro, but that Holly Heights place sounds really nice!

But first, you gotta do your school work! So hurry up and get to it, okay? If you get it all done, I'll treat you to strawberry risotto!

withassets

Ehh, so you finally got me over here. It's a nice change of venue.

Stop pretending you're going to do anything more than this, though. Or are you really thinking about that?

not_that_crowley

So, wait, duck, let's get this straight. After four effing years of complaining about your precious favorite game not taking hometown folks like myself, you find a game that will ...

... and you still want to twist me 'round and make me fit the setting because they need a bloody mechanic and you think that'd be funny. Why can't you just send me in as my damn self? ... Never mind that I don't need much changing, I don't care, I've heard all your reasons. I'm over two hundred years old, I know excuses when I see them. You're afraid, still, you think you spent so long out of the water that you forgot how to swim or something.

Janus is so much better at these speeches, can't you twist him around instead of me...

Okay, okay, you know what? Give it a go. See what you can come up with, and if I like the look of it, maybe I'll play along.

But only because you had the forethought to ask about my hair.

It's finally happened, hasn't it?

deus_ex_harper

Yeah, yeah, you think you're so funny with the journal name. If you're gonna do something just get it over with. See if there is a game you want me to join. Preferably somewhere with a population of a female majority. Not that I wouldn't like to be back with the others. I'm just saying if I have to, I'll somehow make it through with a bunch of lovely ladies for company.

And do me a favor, fix the computer. I know it's bothering you because it's getting to me.
