muse hasn't wanted an account for a year because of his own fandom

[1500lives]

Yes, I caved and let you make me a DW account, but it's only so I can say this-

If I see one more picture, fanfic, whatever, doing horrible things to my team, my cousin, my friends...I'll be the one ending 1000 lives.

But I'm an over-achiever. I might aim for more.

I hate the internet so much.

[princeofjunes]

Believe me Partner, sometimes the internet is a terrible, terrible place.

[1500lives]

If I have to see one more picture of Naoto-kun with a huge chest, I am not responsible for my actions.

[...this is what two years of hating the internet has done to you, Souji. It has made you WEAK. You need to be more INTERNET SAVVY to accept and ignore fandom.]

Can't they...can't they do this to someone else? Like SEES oh wait it's too late for them

[princeofjunes]

Just... do me a favor? Don't look up anything related to that fox.

Ever.

[1500lives]

...even...the fox...?

[Your INTERNET RAGE has grown!]

[princeofjunes]

... I'm sorry you had to hear it from me.

[1500lives]

...no, I'd rather hear it from my partner than from someone else. That's what friends are for, right?

[If your BFF can't give you bad news, who can?]

Just...you be careful, okay? Please?

[princeofjunes]

I'll be okay, don't worry about me. I know there's some sick shit out there, but my mun's tried to keep me from the worst of it.

Will you be alright though?

[1500lives]

I'm not going to any games, I'll be fine.

[Unless a yakuza-born, post-game Seta is app-able. Mun is pretty sure it's not.]

You guys aren't helpless... [And a dry laugh.] Maybe I worry too much.

[princeofjunes]

[You'd be surprised how many places allow AU's!]

Isn't worrying too much in the leader contract? I think it's in the fine print, somewhere after 'get all the ladies'.

[petitejustice]

Big bro! ♥

[she is so happy you do not even know]

[1500lives]

Nana-banana...

[Here, have some cuznhugs.]

Nana, please promise me you won't wander around here too much. There's- [How to word the special that is the internet?] -there's a lot of weird people around here, okay?

[petitejustice]

[She has missed cuznhugs a lot. Like a lot a lot. Who knew a little girl's grip could be so strong?]

I promise! Um...

[oh no.] What's a "fanfic"?

[1500lives]

[Ouf, Nana is growing up fast. ...no he's not going to think about that, he'll get all mushy.]

A... [Augh Nanaaaa...] A fanfic is a story written by people who like our story. Some of them are really good, but others...

[Obvious ellipses. He had to check his Courage and Expression to proceed.]

...some people don't write good things. They write very, very bad things.

[petitejustice]

[Her eyes widen a little. Unfortunately, Nanako is even less INTERNET SAVVY than Souji.] People know our story? Did they see it on TV?

[A small frown, and she tightens her fists in Souji's shirt.] ...as bad as the things Adachi-san did?

[1500lives]

Yeah, kinda...and some of them even helped, in a strange way. [Videogames ARE played on a TV, so...] Not all of them are bad, just remember that.

[More pausing 'cos he wants to word this in a way to not alarm and/or give Nanako the wrong idea.]

...some of them are that bad. A handful, maybe. Most of them are just...immature.

[sukeban]

...I won't ask. Just try not doing anything you'll regret, will you?

[1500lives]

I'm just sick of see-

[Full stop. Full damn stop.]

...

[You must be more INTERNET SAVVY to not brainbreak at genderswaps.]

:3c

[sukeban]

Yeah, Rule 63. It's kinda unavoidable. You get used to it after a while, though. Croquette?

[1500lives]

There's rules for this stuff? [...your INTERNET SAVVY is only on the first level, isn't it Souji.]

I guess it's not so bad...I mean, Minato-kun is doing okay. [A pause, and he nods.] Sure, thank you-...Soujiko? Um.

[...gonna flounder forever at this.]

[sukeban]

[Well, what better way to grind that stat than this?] Only, like, two or three of them. Don't ask me who picked the numbering system.

[She hands him a fresh steak skewer, still piping hot.] Yuuko, actually. Made more sense kanji-wise, y'know?

[1500lives]

I guess that's good news. If there were really 63...

[And an accepted skewer~ He's gonna wait to eat it, till it wasn't prepared to burn him.] ...true. I hadn't thought mom- [Wait. Would his mom be...her...mom? Augh he wasn't gonna dwell on it.] -would be very savvy, but I guess she can be surprising.

[xiiiofthexxi]

[>You cannot help but wince at being reminded of exactly how bad your game series' respective fandoms can get.

But it really is too late for SEES.]

["Can I help."
"You might do more damage aiming for their harddrives over them."]

[1500lives]

...that's a good idea. I'm not very good with technology, but...I at least know what a harddrive is.

[Mostly. If he smashes the entire computer, he's bound to hit it.]

We can make a game of it. See who can get the most computers?

[What is not competing with SEES.]

[xiiiofthexxi]

[>You can see it already: hundreds of thousands of yen worth of bad fandom in sparking, mangled disarray.]

["That would be unfair to you. Considering the sheer expanse of what I have to work with."
"Then we'll have to burn the doujins, of course."]

[>That's code for 'hell yes.']

[foggiestidea]

[DID SOMEONE SAY HORRIBLE THINGS?]

You might not want to look for anything... With me in it... In particular me and you, ahaha...

[1500lives]

[OH DAMNIT-]

...I'm, aware.

[Curt, but with a degree of pity.]

I'm also sorry about...that. [It seemed to go both-ways in terms of...badness.]

[foggiestidea]

[He doesn't need yur pity!!!!

Okay maybe for this it's all right.]

Yeah... Talk about an awkward subject.

[tereteindahouse]

Hey man, isn't that a little drastic? I mean, you can just ignore it, right?

[1500lives]

...

[Deadpan, but a sighish deadpan.]

I would love to ignore it, but it's my team.

[tereteindahouse]

Oh come on man, you need to ignore it especially if it's your team! Unless your team has some nice looking ladies. Then you should enjoy it.

[1500lives]

[See. Souji was going to just explain his point of view. Be reasonable and calm, if not passionate.

But then you had to say that. You just had to say that.]

...Norn.

[And now you have a boy crushing a card, and using a good ol' fashioned Garudyne on your ass Junpei. This is your life, these are your choices.]

[tereteindahouse]

What the HELL, dude? Can't we talk this over?

[xiiiofthexxi]

[>You abruptly start at the sound of baby baby baby Garudyne being cast, and manage to pinpoint it to a thread nearby.

>...

>You wish you could say you are surprised.]

["..Junpei, what did you do?"]

[tereteindahouse]

Hey, why is it always my fault? Can't it just be that the other guy is insane or something?

[1500lives]

[Hold on, let him switch arcanas to Magician. Then maybe he can handle this more coolly. Your Understanding is at max, you should be better than this.]

I don't want to think of the girls from my team like that. [Wait that was a horrible thing to say to a Magician-] If they want to be seen like that, it's up to them to decide. Not other people. That's all.

[tereteindahouse]

[The first part didn't make sense but the rest... Junpei grins.]

Oh. I think I got it now. Why didn't you just say so?

[xiiiofthexxi]

["...dispute settled."]

[>The situation appears to have resolved itself.

>Good job, team!]

[morphballin]

I know that feeling all too well - though lacking a team of my own, it's stuff involving me I have to deal with.

[1500lives]

I'm lucky enough to be left alone, but mostly at their expense. The fandom can be cool, but it can also be very...

[Why-do-you-guys-keep-putting-Yukiko-in-lingerie-y.]

I'm...sorry you have to deal with that. My sympathies back.

[pitiedthefool]

[Oh, does he belatedly second him...self-? This is confusing, but not surprising giving... fandom.]

Isn't that a little much because of immature imaginations-?
