Summoners.

[yeah.]

You do realize there's more to me than spinning and screaming the name of my homeland, right? At the risk of sounding arrogant, if I suddenly disappear from the League, it's going to be a problem.

Demacia needs me right now. You do not. And don't tell me something ridiculous, like time flows differently here- after Kalamanda, I've had just about enough of Demacian soldiers being frozen in time.

Don't you have some matches to play right now, anyway? Get to it. Hone your skills, master your champions, and bring glory to your homeland. Unless that homeland is Noxus, in which case... don't. Do the opposite of that.

lucency

Your hand didn't slip, and I don't care if that's a joke. [ this is belle's stern head-tilt. ]

You don't think you're overexerting yourself, do you? Stretching yourself too thin? It's not that I can't be split three ways, but - [ a bite of her lip as she thinks on her words. ] another place like that. It's exhausting. Not only for me, but for everyone else. For you, eventually.

[ but then, she straightens. because she can choose it. if it's between her and someone else taking the hit, belle can stay in control. it's more than a matter of acceptance, of course, but she's still the one driving this thing. more or less. ]

I never said I couldn't do it. I've managed before. I'm not the one you need to worry about.

innes

Congratulations. You didn't plan this ahead did you? No, of course not... and yet somehow you're supposed to guide me? Laughable. It will be my way, or no way at all. You know the drill.

I suppose we'll somehow recruit more of my comrades in the long run. Until then, you're not going to let me sit here like one of those other fools waiting for a piece of table scrap.

Mundane, was it? A strange title if I ever heard one...

Are you certain about this course of action?

[She stares for a moment, before shaking her head and even smirking slightly.] You misunderstand, 'Mundane' - I approve of this decision. A city far outside the realms, that none that knew me could hope to follow? I can scarcely contain my excitement.

[As dryly as that was said, there is a note of honesty in her tone. But her expression softens slightly afterwards, and her tone shifts to something... almost wistful.] Perhaps, for once in my life, I might even be able to let my guard down.

[She seems to be looking forward to that the most.]

yourpiecenow

Great, now we're going from Charmed to Smallville. At least the costumes are sexier.

I mean it, my outfit better rock. Having superpowers basically just involves flying around dressed like a slut, anyway.

[so, y'know, not that much different than her normal daily life.]

If you even think about putting me in spandex, I'll kick your fat ass.

notquitebeloved

There is plenty of time to send me to the right place. I know it doesn't matter what I think - so long as you are happy I have no choice but to go.

So...

Why bother asking me?

fireknight

You can get through it! I know it seems like we're so young, and it doesn't move as quickly as you would like it to now that you're older. But we did it together, you and I, back then! And we can do it again! I don't mind reliving my own journey! All of the exciting things that happened, the way everything changed... So long as we stick together, we can do it!

undark

We'll find some place to go if we're meant to. I don't have a doubt about that-- and Neverland is very much about belief. I'm not the worried one here. We'll figure out something if we have. I do. I always do.

Even if it's alone.

newmanly

WHAT THE HECK MAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!

You made this account so you'd better USE IT! I WON'T SETTLE FOR ANYTHING LESS!

If you think you can't handle my voice DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT! Just keep trying and you'll get the hang of it! IT'S JUST LIKE BEING A LAWYER! KEEP BLUFFING AND THEY'LL BELIEVE YOU EVENTUALLY!!

Wait, did you just mean I'm too loud? I can try to tone it down! No problem!

[ SERIOUSLY DON'T CLICK ANYWHERE IF YOU HAVEN'T BEATEN CASE 3 thanks ]

624th_bird_bird

You know, Munita, sometimes I wonder about you. I take back what I said earlier, I guess, but the sentiment still stands. You are an idiot. But I guess you... you mean well, and I appreciate that. You paid attention to me, and took care of me, and fed me and stuff. But... *sigh* You really are an idiot. One with bad luck, too. But, you know, I guess since I've been ridiculously lucky with my run as Ara so far, I guess I could, you know, share some of that luck with you, I guess. Just... thanks, and whatever.

*You're terrible at apologizing...*

Fuck you, last time I apologize for anything!

*...But thank you.*

G-go to sleep!

softreset

You're mad.

Are you truly going to listen to them? You hardly listen to me.

[ a pause. ]

This is no something you should concern yourself with, mun.

holdsthekey

Your renewed interest in our quest fills me with neither hope nor confidence. In fact, it makes me wonder why you bothered to come back at all.

[Gee, Thorin, don't hold back. Say what you really mean.]

... I always do.

Current Mood: restless

greatmousedetective

My dear lady, but as you've chosen to work with me, I believe there should be a few ground rules that we should agree upon.

For one, I do not care about 'relationships' and I refuse to be involved in them. I will not even speak of ... those relationships.

You will find me somewhere that I can be of use. If I am sitting around doing nothing, I will cause damage to that electronic you are typing upon.

Lastly, you will go and find me a case. Now. I am active and wish to be so.

No, the last is that I require pipe tobacco. Preferably of a better make.

likesthesuit

You pick up not one, but two FBI agents because you were "enabled by a group of people".

You make it sound like some kind of cult. Or gang. That's... not really my department. At all so I'm not sure what it is you're trying to do?

...Ma'am. Neal's always running amok. I've given up trying to restrain him. [it usually pays results]

redstatement

Oooooh? So you have played through my game only a couple hours, and you already think you can do my will justice? You, who were unworthy of hearing the full truth until today? You, who let such a hilarious idea sprout in your mind after seeing only fragments of my story through the manga, and hearing the answers to my mystery through broken whispers, garbled down the line?

[A cackle slowly echoes through the following pause, the unnerving satisfaction within bleeding over into the following words.]

Such arrogant optimism! It will be fun to take your enthusiasm and slice it to pieces with doubt and despair every moment you keep playing... Then revive your hope and shred it again! Over and over and over... Until I am bored and defeat leaves you nothing but a scrap of pulp to be thrown away!

Yes, go on, then... Let's plaaaaaay.

darkhonour

Why don't you come back when you make up your mind.

Or better yet don't come back at all!

[OOC: Mun's torn between

disney_academy and

thewake and wishes she had the time to send him to both.>

darlinglys

Mundane. Darling.

I would not question your decision if not for one teensy little detail. The fact you have chosen to take me away from Wonderland on your own whims. I have things to be doing. A kingdom to run. A girl to find.

Yet, you know this. You know what's at stake for dear old me if I don't deliver.

Do not toy with me, darling. I don't think you'd enjoy the outcome.

summer_cheer

So, you're thinking of giving me more page time this year. You haven't finished the last story yet. You're going to leave that hanging, and just move on?

Not that I'm complaining. I'm excited about it, really. About getting more development and growth, and more of a plot. You let Raven have all the fun in the first one you wrote. It's about time I get my turn. My real turn.

Any hints about what you've got in store for me, Lady Author? My squad? Do I get a sweet-ass comeback, after what you you had someone do to me before? Do I get revenge?

Come on, you've got 50,000 words to write, and they're all mine! Give me a hint, please?

~McKenzie St. Austin

mcgee

I don't like the way you're looking at me.

Stop it.

hamburgerhero

Mun don't you dare give up on me! Like hell I'm going to leave your headspace and be quiet!

I know you don't want to give up- we've had a sh- ton of fun together and you might not believe it but there are others who agree we make a good team. They've even said it to you more than once. I'm America- I'm your effing favorite muse and we've made freakin' beautiful stuff happen together. I'm staying.

whosyourthaddy

Not only has that poseur Walter destroyed my reputation and my work, but now I must deal with a rank amateur such as yourself?

Please. You haven't the nerve.

tofight

It's about time you did something! Now come on, decide where I'm headed. Some place good! And make sure everyone else is there.

...Except Sister Kate. She can stay home.

wildcardpotential

Okay, no sugar coating this time.

I am very concerned and very upset about some of your "shipping" habits.

Especially this newest idea of yours. I'm aware you've been fighting it off, but now you're giving in to it and I am not okay with this.

revenans

You realize this is a bad idea, right?

You don't have a good reason to even try getting away with this, and c'mon- i'm a zombie. Working on my multitasking skills with living and rotting at the same time. But god, we're all on the same page with this, right? You, me, every other jackass. I'm an undead creature of the night, everybody's worst nightmare... that's gotta be ringing a bell or two.

Don't try and tell me you think you can get away with sending a zombie some place where cannibalism is frowned on. [ that word. jesus, he's gonna throw up again. ] Which would literally be anywhere. Everywhere.

Think about it. A little bit fucking harder maybe.

nodoloreanneeded

Why am I not surprised by this? First I get flung back to the reign of Augustus Ceaser and now I'm on the Internet. Amazing, great, wonderful, I'm not going to wait for you to figure out what do with me, just so you know.

heartofaduelist

[Well, this is... kind of awkward.]

M-mun-san... you already have Ryou-chan like this, d-did you really need another one?

$thetiger: (:\)$

thetiger

You think the boss would want to pick from one of these other poor bastards, give them the monkey suit for awhile? Hell, a holiday sounds real fucking nice right about now.

freecure

Wait, what does "homeless, looking?" mean?

Argh, mundane no more. Seriously. My head is about to explode from the stress. Why are you asking me what I'm stressed about? You really want to take that route?

Fine.

My job is really getting to me now. What was I even thinking?! I stand there and make sure people don't die, yet some people? They seem to want to. Just the other day some Lalafell stood there going "Oh look at the giant fireball heading my way!" and just stood and watched it as it bounced off her head. There is nothing funny about a Lalfell running in circles screaming they're on fire as their designated "healer" has to run in circles after them just to try and put them out. And that's a normal day.

I need a new job.

And then you suggested weaving and I thought fine. Except I haven't left Ul'dah in about two weeks now. I'm all for sun, you know I am. The hint is in the damned name "Seeker of the Sun" and all. But that involves, oh I dunno, enjoying the sun? Not sitting in some back alleyway with who knows what. That and there's the world under threat of destruction. Again. Well, no rest for the wicked. I should be out there and training but nope I'm sat in the shade making gloves.

Gloves!

If you suggesting weaving one more time I'm leaving and starting a tavern in Costa Del Sol. No more of the Ascians and the Empire and all that, I'll be on the beach making drinks.

Actually that doesn't sound so bad

NO I DON'T WANT A NEW WEAVING NEEDLE! I'D RATHER PICK BITS OF THINGS OUT OF BAHAMUT'S TEETH!

ryall

Calm down. You don't need to worry so much. You're doing fine, and if you want to try posting to some memes I'll come along. Can't say I'm thrilled with the idea of some of those memes, but it's always good to stretch your wings. Remember, whether you think you can or whether you think you can't, you're right.

I'm not sure why so many of you muns are so nervous about trying us out. All this voicetesting, is that what you're calling it? It always seems to work out fine. It's like I'm always saying. Reach for the moon...if you miss at least you'll be among the stars.

savoir

Well, this is new...and a bit alarming, but I'm flattered you've taken an interest in me.

imthe_shit

Hnn... Almost feel like a new man. Can't believe you sat there for four hours trying to get snapshots of me. I wouldn't have gone that far.

[ Takes out a cigarette. ] If you're willing to do that much for me, then that must mean I'm back in the game. ...Figuratively speaking. [ Places it in his mouth. ] I may not like what point you've updated me to, but at least I'm not stuck in that limbo I was in for the last three years... On Raging Raven's doorstep.

Looks like you've made some new allies, too. At least you're keeping yourself entertained. [ Lights the cigarette and takes a drag, before exhaling slowly. ] ...Hn... Three years, huh. Doesn't feel like it.

Hopefully you don't drop me back into the dark, but I'm not about to ask for a miracle.

lostswan

What?

Seriously. You can stop giving me that look anytime now.

truemanoffendel

So, we're doing this, huh? [He shakes his head.] Heh, okay. I'm not too happy about dying, you know, even if the view's nice.

Well, bring it on. I'm not ready to die yet, so Death should prepare itself. I'm not staying down.

cykeologist

Vamanos, Boss!

If you're going to start playing someone like me, you've got to have heart! Otherwise there's no point in being a lawyer, right? Besides, being psyched up is one of my most redeeming traits, and I'm sure Boss and Apollo'll be proud that I'm finally reaching the big time. Auf geht's!

haleybecker

I'm really excited that you're picking us up for NaNoWriMo. I don't know a better group of people than the ones I work with, and there are all sorts of stories we can tell. It's going to be a lot of fun to start talking about them.

But you've got to remember that I'm different from the me on paper. You can't exactly write in chapter two about me knowing somebody who turns into a giant green monster when he's angry. That would be really hard to explain.

And while there are a ton of guys around here that look like Jeremy Renner, I don't think any of them want to talk with me about which one of us is smarter.

I'm all for you writing me more, just...try not to get us confused, okay?

And um. If I can make one suggestion for the future? Can you get rid of that subplot about me being asked to do Maxim? I'm not really photo-shoot material. [Haley blushes at the thought.]

Current Mood: cheerful

properlady

My dearest Mundane,

It seems we've crossed paths again. To be expected to say the least. I do believe this is our third encounter? Yes, Hibana thinks that's correct. I'm beginning to ponder if you are now realizing the bond between you and I. That once you assume I cease to exist, you experience... a yearning and grow a distaste of my absence. And why, you ask yourself? Oh, it's quite simple. You, Miss Mundane, are far from being a proper lady. Such a dirty, sinful child. And it is Hibana's duty to teach you mannerisms and to purify you from all the wrongs you've done. You speak about disliking my ways of teaching, but you seem to return to me in given time. Surely, you couldn't hate my rules that much. It's a shame that I can not remove the bad meat from you, but there are other methods. You are my assignment, you see. And until you become a lady, Hibana shall always be here to monitor you and grade you for any improvements. And accepting this faith is the first step to becoming an elegant lady. Hibana sees a lot of potential in you. For now, you will receive a B. Try not let your grades slip ❤ !

Sincerely yours,
Daida Hibana
The Third Squad Leader

anathemaflora

First off: shouldn't surprise you that I'm still here. You did make this journal, after all, as an - experiment, you call it. See if it could work, putting a real face to the name. A potential outcome, a few years on. It's like how you're supposed to be careful not to invite the hazards in. You make the mistake, you deal with the consequences.

But, and this is second - s' a difference, between being responsible and blaming yourself for literally everything. Know it's maybe a bit hypocritical, coming from me. But I'm still moving, and that's more than you can say. You let your fears and all that wall you up. Too scared of making the wrong move to make any moves. It's dumb. "Little me" would've written this, but I figured...maybe not so much with the shouting.

(Heh. I'm surprised at how she's turned out in that game, but I digress.)

The point is it's on you to change. That's it, that's the only thing you need to freak out so much about. Speak up, you've got a voice, don't you? Not just mine, yours. Act, live, you're just drowning in your self-pity otherwise.

... On that note - you claimed interest in applying me somewhere at some point. The me with this journal, that is. At least make sure the basics are down so that you can use them when it's time to go.

Current Mood: cranky

deathsnatch

You're in way over your head if you think you can handle this. And this is the worst name you ever could have chosen. What I'm able to do, the things I cause, aren't some joke. What's wrong with you?

itsapirateslife

Don't hate the Charmings too badly, mate.

It's in their nature to hate which they can't understand. Their world is far to black and white for the rest of us to follow. Emma is lucky to be as...forward thinking as she is.

fairytalewhut

( mun shaking head at muse. - spoilers beneath cut )

merlentless

Maybe what you should do is try to get to know me better, if you're this concerned about starting in four days. You haven't had a new set of people to work with in three years, and if I'm being totally honest, I think it's spoiled you a little.

I don't want to be rude. You know that. But there's work to do, and not a lot of time left to do it.

Merle

sacredappellation

Ho! Mundane! [Uh.] ...what manner of muse would I be if I just called you 'Mundane'? Nay, for such an individual I should give a proper name, one which would draw forth your true power as you...draw forth my power?

...

Er. And why's your friend beating up preschoolers? It's just...isn't there a more heroic way of gaining funds than mugging kids?

kingofthecats

I am only answering your call to make a point.

Well. Mundane, what is it that you hope to accomplish? You haven't the time to send me to a game. You have yet to properly reread any of the material, whether the traitor Stoker's... fanciful tale or Mr Newman's accounts.

If I have learned anything, it is that warm men such as yourself have the most incredible habit of dealing in things they cannot hope to command. As I said to you before, I am here to make a point. I will go along with your charade only so long as it amuses me to do so. You have far less control here than you believe. Regardless, I shall continue to go along with this - for the time being. Find a game or do not. The longer you are unresolved, the shorter that my cooperation will last.

I am no newborn held at the thrall of the red thirst, drunk on newfound power and darting between shadows to avoid the sun. I commanded a nation five centuries before your birth. I have taken mighty empires for my own. I have sent millions of men marching across Europe into the trenches in glorious struggle. I am father-in-darkness to western civilization itself.

I am Dracula.

And I should hope that with that, my point is understood.

bottomless

I was beginning to think you'd forgotten about me! It's been such a long time, and it's kind of dusty up here, and I miss Alibaba and Mor and the others. I'd even take Uncle Kouen at this point.

You should update my icons! I grew, remember? Teacher said so.

tobeexiles

Well well, dear dear me, and as if it really isn't time already, young fellow. At least you have had the sense to commence your wanderings on this site with me, hmmmmm? Instead of the rest of me, which, honestly, do you really think you can pull such a thing off! You're busy enough on that Livejournal Place as it is and now you think you could possibly utilise the other versions of me? Even that strange human fellow calling himself 'Doctor Who' who thinks he's me? Hmph! I think you might be as crazy as Chesterton or Steven are when they get such a hair-brained scheme in their heads! Besides, you've more than enough fellows and ladies to transfer over from my neck of the woods and that Marvel place to be bothering with new ones!

Yesyesyes, I know it's a special year for us! But it can't be done, no matter how good a writing thespian you consider yourself to be! Try with what you have, bring that Madame Vastra woman or that Nyssa girl who dallies about with the cricket one. Otherwise it'll be like before and you'll just have a lot of people you barely use on here, hmmmm?

Current Mood: cynical

onigiri_papa

So we're going to play at this again are we Mr. Teacher?

I guess it's alright as long as I get to see them again. You should really go through and update a few things though, it's been a few years so there are probably more things to find. I guess I can see why it took you so long to come back around to me though, since she got away. I would have been crushed if Kyoko had said no.

lustily

See, Munnie dear? I told you it would all work out... Of course, I'm pretty sure neither of us would have expected it from her, of all people.

But all you need is a little bit of time to get her comfortable, yes?

... ... ... I'm pretty sure the people in your Skype call don't appreciate your endless giggling, however.~

[BUGGER THAT IT'S HIM--]

Munnie dear...~ What have I told you about giving her time to get comfortable with his voice?~

[BUT--]

Ah-ah-ah...~~ [Finger waggling here.] P-a-t-i-e-n-c-e...~

I think we have issues.
