On considering jarjammed

[waspyourface]

Must you actually put me in a game? I'm having plenty of fun all by myself (and with the other muses in here). I don't need you to ship me off to some convoluted game to "keep me busy". I can keep myself busy. I don't owe you anything.

I have my own projects to work on, you know! I have no desire to help a bunch of stupid random people beat a video game. I have wasps to grow! Machines to build! People to harass! Sex to have!

I don't have a say in the matter you say?

Wow, rude.

[NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE

I mean]

Aunt Lucrezia?

[itsbraveanditburns]

Oh my fucking god, Theo, is this the aunt you talked about?

[sugardoom]

Yyyyyyyes.

[itsbraveanditburns]

She kind of reminds me of GLaDOS, except the whole having sex thing.

[sugardoom]

Riiiight. GLaDOS wouldn't be doing much of that, I assume.

The similarity is fairly striking, though. I mean, you've read the books, you would know.

[waspyourface]

Has my darling nephew been talking about me? How flattering! All terrible things, I'm sure. Serpentina was always spreading lies about me.

But who are you, then?

[Nope that smile isn't at all predatory what are you talking about.]

[itsbraveanditburns]

Karkat Vantas. The Human Karkat. There's two of us--well, unless you count the back-up on the hard drive. Basically, weird multiverse alternate universe bullshit. I'm the one that's younger and also not a troll.

[waspyourface]

[Yyyyyeeeaahhhh ok. Sure. Um. That's way too many "verse"s for her taste.]

Lucrezia Mongfish. But I'm sure you knew that already. I'm the only one. Just me: perfect, unique me.

[Yes, make the conversation all about you, Lu. Clearly best solution.]

[waspyourface]

[But yes though.]

Goodness! Theopholus? Can that really be you?

Last I saw you, you were still tiny, fat, and drooling! When did you grow up?

[And when did you get handsome?]

[sugardoom]

[Lu

Lu stop

Lu he is your nephew

No]

Well, I suppose that all depends on your arbitrary definition of adulthood and what it means to reach it. Possibly I grew up when I either started or completed puberty. Or when I got married. Or when I consummated that marriage.

Take your pick?

[waspyourface]

[Lu yes]

[Theo sweetie. What. What are you doing.]

I was... more referring to when you got tall. And started talking. And grew sideburns.

[Very nice sideburns, she might add.]

[sugardoom]

[Lu NO]

Ah!

I reached my current height at sixteen, started talking at two, and have been working on the sideburns since eighteen.

I hope that cleared things up for you.

[friendlypuellus]

[Huh.]

At least there's making the most of it ma'am? I'd certainly prefer to be elsewhere but you do have a good chance for seeing interesting places and people. And non-people for that matter!

[waspyourface]

I assure you I can make the best of any situation, darling.

[Oh my god did you just call her "ma'am"? That's funny. You're funny.]

Are you already in this absurd game, then?

[friendlypuellus]

[He calls GLaDOS miss and he has more then a few less the kind thoughts for her. It's just how he's been raised]

Well that's good! Having the right attitude is good at times like this.

And yes. Roughly a month or so? Though time is a bit foggy in there, so that's more a guess.

[waspyourface]

[Ohhhh, a polite little gentleman. How delightful.

She'll enjoy breaking him of that.]

With the right attitude, one can build a proper death-trap from any available materials! And that's all one ever really needs.

[itsbraveanditburns]

Oh cool! Do you do that a lot?

[Yay death traps.]

[blackberries]

What a lovely shade of gold your hair is, ma'am.

[waspyourface]

Why thank you, darling! You have lovely taste!

What is your name?

[blackberries]

Mary Katherine. It was my sister that had gold hair, just that shade; though I should not be pleased if she joined the game, or you, I think.

It's a really rubbish game.

[waspyourface]

Fascinating! I don't suppose you and your sister could possibly be related to the Mongfishes? We are famous for our golden hair [plays with it a little]

It sounds really 'rubbish'. I don't have time for frivolous non-reality and teamwork. I do hope my mundane changes her mind.

I really don't think she will.

[scanranprettyboy]

[Rosto isn't so sure about this whole RP game proposition either. He is, however, quite sure of one thing, and that is that Lucrezia is one appealing mot.]

Hello, love. Fancy finding a mot like you in what's cleaning up to be my rather unfortunate future. I had been thinking I'd like to stay put, but if all the doxies in this game are half as kind on the eyes as you are, I think I might go ahead and take my chances in joining up.

[waspyourface]

[Oh, hello there. Someone who finally knows how to talk to her properly. So hard to get treated like the beautiful specimen that she is around here!]

Hello yourself, darling. I haven't the slightest how the other ladies in the game are on the eyes, but I can assure you that none of the gentlemen I have met so far from there are remotely as pleasurable company.

What might I call you, handsome?

[scanranprettyboy]

[Rosto half-smirks. If he thinks she's laying it on a bit thick, he's clearly not bothering to care, and besides, this, after Rogue business, is his element.]

Rosto's m'name. Rosto the Piper. And who might you be?

[waspyourface]

[She loves laying it on thick, and he gave her an opening! She offers out her hand without shame]

Lucrezia. Lucrezia Mongfish.
