[the_monsters_mother]

Oh, you were expecting something... Different.

Cute.

M'am, if it's any consolation, my mundane was also expecting something different.

[the_monsters_mother]

I guess it's all part of the... Human condition.

[ex_unethical663]

Ah, yes. The Human condition. That is something I'll never be able to experience unfortunately.

[the_monsters_mother]

I'm not sure that's something you should lament, David.

[stillshinigami]

Should my mun see it?

[the_monsters_mother]

That all depends on what they're after...

[stillshinigami]

Well, she was after something Ridley Scott original but she heard it was a prequel.

Sadly lacking in biomechanical aesthetics and psychosexual undertones. :c But entertaining to watch!

[the_monsters_mother]

You've got an... Interesting perspective, considering my life.

It's something which happened before my time, yes.

[stillshinigami]

I don't really have a perspective on the matter yet, just sayin' what she's tellin' me for the moment.

Although... yeah. Giant phallic shaped aliens. Not exactly PC, is it?

[the_monsters_mother]

It's not nursery rhyme material, no... You should see what I get dreams about.

[stillshinigami]

I'll pass, thanks.

[the_monsters_mother]

I thought you'd say that.

[stillshinigami]

I'm not surprised you'd say that either, incidentally.

[ex_unethical663]

Trust me, I'm not. [He smiles.] It would only get in the way.

[the_monsters_mother]

[stillshinigami]

[Hmmm? That smile is a little bit creepy.

[the_monsters_mother]

That's one way of looking at it... Not too sure what you'll think of your successors, mind you.

[the_monsters_mother]

[Ripley's Alien-tainted clone being a little creepy? Surely not...]

[stillshinigami]

[Well... Er. Smile?]

[the_monsters_mother]

[:D]

[stillshinigami]

[:o]

[the_monsters_mother]

I'm sorry. It's their sense of... Humour.

[stillshinigami]

Aliens have a sense of humor?

[the_monsters_mother]

Writers do.

Mostly.

It's no fun if they don't.

[stillshinigami]

I'll agree to that.

What about that guy who wrote you in that last movie?

[ex_unethical663]

Oh? Are they capable of experiencing human emotions?

[the_monsters_mother]

His was very... Unusual.

[stillshinigami]

Hey, I thought it was funny.

[the_monsters_mother]

The last one... Seemed like it. Fucked if I know how.

[the_monsters_mother]

Johner had a habit of pissing me off... Still does.

[stillshinigami]

Yeah, well. That's just how it goes.

I've just got a 30 years later sequel and... Yeah. My mun kinda dismisses it off hand.

It's definitely not what she expected.

[the_monsters_mother]

They always say that, as if we should've somehow expected it even more.
