Adding to the pile. Homeless forever.

[soma_cruz]

Another one, Mun?

[A low but long-suffering sigh.]

You never learn, do you?

[summonedstrength]

You're preaching to the choir, man.

[soma_cruz]

I...suppose so. It won't be for too often, though. So...

[summonedstrength]

They can surprise you. I didn't expect to stick around nearly as long as I have, then I met Richter and the rest is history.

[No homo.]

Haha!

[soma_cruz]

... I see.

[Yeah, he's just going to inch backwards. Subtle.]

I won't hold my breath. Lightning doesn't strike twice.

lmfao I had to

[summonedstrength]

[Hey, where are you going? COME BACK HERE AND LET ME LOVE YOU.

Okay, so Hector doesn't actually move, but he does notice the inching away, which is a perfectly normal reaction to anything involving he and Richter.]

You never know. Granted, it is better to be skeptical at first; just don't hold too tightly to the doubt.

[soma_cruz]

[You forgot the part where it's also normal to want to douse yourself in bleach, Hector.]

Mm. I'll keep that in mind...

[sanctuarysoul]

[We're all just going to pretend that she isn't all sorts of twitterpated. Yep. Just a normal day in Lisa-land.]

It seems to be a common trend among those that keep us. I can't even begin to tell you how many others this one has.

[She says as she gestures to her mun, who is doing her best to look TOTALLY INNOCENT. Naturally.]

Of course, the fact that you're here tells me that your mun makes excellent choices, so I think you'll be alright.

[soma_cruz]

[Why hello there, strangely familiar stranger... Muns are never innocent]

Ah, I can see that now.

[He rubs the back of his head then stops short when he realizes it might make him look insecure or uncomfortable.]

I just don't want this to be a flash in the pan. My mun believes this crazy idea that more will show up if I'm around...

[sanctuarysoul]

[Hello yourself, person that never fails to make her all wibbly. Sure they are! ...they sleep sometimes, right?]

You get used to it eventually.

[She gives a soft smile at that.]

I can understand that. I wish I could reassure you one way or another, but those sorts of things are notoriously unpredictable. I only hope that you can enjoy your time here, regardless of the duration.

[soma_cruz]

If you insist, then I'll try my best.

[relictusdeus]

And this surprises you? [He chuckles, rolling his eyes.] They tend to be terribly dull creatures.

[soma_cruz]

I wouldn't say my mun is dull but, no, I'm not really surprised...

[relictusdeus]

What is it that you intend to do? Aside from complaining, that is.

[soma_cruz]

I'm not complaining.

[relictusdeus]

Of course you aren't. [Nodding gently.]

[tetraspirit]

They rarely do. Adapt quickly, Soma. They are also creatures that are rarely merciful.

[soma_cruz]

[Hello there, Arikado Alucard.]

Much easier said than done.

[He's right about muns being merciless, though.]

[tetraspirit]

[Why, hello daddy Soma!]

You've managed before.

[soma_cruz]

Circumstances were different. And...

[He's going to just absently stroke his fingers against the pendant dangling from around his neck.]

I wasn't alone.

[tetraspirit]

You are not alone now.

[He gestures to the others that have responded to Soma. Though it's left unspoken, Alucard is also always here. His duty is to guard and help him as long as he is good, after all.]

Circumstances will always be different, but you should never let them overwhelm you.

[soma_cruz]

[Funny, how even in this twisted turn of events, Alucard still manages to keep a cool head and mentor him. In his own distant way, naturally.

Soma's lips quirk a little. He almost smiles. Almost.]

Of course. I'll try to keep your words in mind, Arikado.
