Missed the little deadline, did you, dear heart? All the better for you, perhaps. It's that much more time to stop floundering and start swimming! The alternative is you sink, and who wants that? Hee hee. Not that I'd complain if you threw in the towel. But I suppose I can't fault your taste - who could pass up my scintillating company?

Don't make that face now. And stop being so nervous! Best foot forward, you're representing me, and if you look bad so do I. We can't be having that. But really there's nothing to worry about. After all, God is your copilot.

Hee hee.

If that's true I think he fell asleep at the wheel, kitten.

[plays]

Oh, I have it on good authority that God is looking right over her shoulder this very instant, dollface.

[daughters_of_janus]

Really? Then I wonder if god will let me pass the curse he gave me onto you.

[plays]

Looking to make others take care of your own problems? Tut tut, my dear. An attitude like that won't take you far.

Besides, do you still ask your mama to wipe your bottom?

[bedninja]

You should not be so unkind to your mundane, Joshua! They really are considerably more tolerable if you do not provoke them on too many occasions.

Though I doubt you are terribly concerned about truly provoking anyone. [Since, you know, you can kind of kick anyone's ass.]

But to say that you are simply a copilot... that does not seem to be giving yourself nearly enough credit.

[zeitgeists]

It seems you have the advantage on me, stranger - can I get an introduction or am I going to have to give you a nickname?

Anyhow I'm not quite on a first name basis with her yet. We're still getting acquainted and working out who's shifting gears when and who's pushing down on the gas how hard.

[bedninja]

Oh, do not worry! I am afraid I have no real advantage over you at all. After all, you and I have never met before!

But I have far too many names already; I see no reason that you should feel the need to give me a nickname, unless you wanted to. My name is Pharos.

[bedninja]

...Now that you mention it though, I have yet to see any of the people in places such as these actually refer to their mundane by name. I wonder why that is?

I am sure you will have the system figured out quickly enough, however. My mundane believes that as well.

[plays]

Much obliged, Pharos.

Familiarity breeds contempt, perhaps? A whole lot of sheep standing around in a state of nerves worried they'll step on toes if they try to be too familiar? I can tell you my own mun's name if you want to know it.

[neverplaysfair]

Lucky that this isn't a trial with a time limit, hmm?

[zeitgeists]

Lucky for her! She'd better step up her game, though. I can't have her bringing us both down~

[neverplaysfair]

Ah, the joys of being partners. Just make sure she isn't making you suffer too much for it... [ He giggles, but oh you can bet there's a look that's distinctly not amusement in his eyes. ]

[zeitgeists]

[Too late for that... sadface! :(]

Oh, at least she has a few spurs prodding her on. She seems to be a little nervous about this little venture, no less about how others will react to her efforts - I can see why! It's no mean feat keeping up with me, or trying to, at least. Hee hee.

[... Even if he'd rather be meting out the punishment himself rather than watching others (only potentially!) do it. Double sadface! :( :(]

[lefthanded]

Ooh, if that was true, there's a lot for her to worry about.

[plays]

How cynical! Don't tell me you're an atheist.

[lefthanded]

I'd say she'd have a better chance if I was; otherwise, missing the deadline was probably part of the plan. A tiny, annoying, mysterious plan.

[plays]

Gosh, a plan for what?

[attorneyatlawl]

(Maybe she'd be less nervous if you'd do less creepy giggling and drowning metaphors...)

Sounds like your mun has her hands full.

[plays]

[What was that, Mr. Wright?]

If she'd just move over and let me hold the wheel, she'd have less on her plate to fret about.

[attorneyatlawl]

[Shhh nothing to see here just some sarcastic inner monologue]

Muns usually aren't too keen on that kind of thing.

(Now it's driving metaphors?!)

[plays]

Hmm, it sounds like you sure are experienced!

[leggierissimo]

Missing a deadline sends a terribly negative message to her peers, doesn't it?

[plays]

Oh, I don't know if she has any. She's toiling away in lonely obscurity, with no one to care for her petty victories or disappoint with her failures...

[leggierissimo]

What a shame. At least the lack of someone to disappoint must be reassuring on her part.

[plays]

I'm sure she weeps those lonely tears just for funsies. I understand that she's dragging in company and she couldn't get better than me, but I do have a game to be running...
