This...may not be my scene.

holy blast from the past, Batman!!!! I haven't read Bex's fics in years...

[blanched]

Your scene...?

spoilers: they are still QUALITY

[missionaryman]

That's right--I think that's the best word to describe this whole...roleplay...thing. A scene. A, uh, a stage.

And it's certainly not mine.

[gleans]

Fuuuck, I swore off this 'same hat' thing. Why am I here?

PS, it's totally not your scene.

[missionaryman]

It sounds to me like you're just a sucker.

I'm--kidding. But yeah, I kind of figured. I think the heart is in the right place, but even so. The road to Hell, good intentions, et cetera.

[gleans]

Yeah, yeah.

Fuck, this is weird. I've seen like -- ten of me, but none that were priests. Not to discount your... you-ness, or anything.

[missionaryman]

Is it that weird? I even avoided the collar, I thought it would make things less...well. Y'know, weird.

[gleans]

It's not the actual priestness? It's just -- never mind. Hi, I'm Galen.

[missionaryman]

Gerard.

So why don't you tell me what is weird about it?

[gleans]

Forget about it, my friend gave me his foot-in-mouth problem. Maybe it is the priestness, maybe it's cuz I've never been religious, I don't fucking know.

[missionaryman]

You seem a little aggravated. Not like--aggravated, but tense, I guess.

stop it /sits on frank journal

[fangool]

Vague enough t'get my attention. What d'you mean by that?

can't stop won't etc etc

[missionaryman]

By which? This, my scene--or am I redefining scene again? I'm starting to feel like maybe I don't know what it means...

[fangool]

S'what happens when you say the same word over and over. What's your scene?

[missionaryman]

Uh--independence, I guess! No...puppeteer up my ass. I don't know, I consider myself fairly flexible, but admit it: this is definitely...different.

[fangool]

Nothing up your ass and flexible, huh?

[missionaryman]

That one's a freebie. You're gonna have to work for the rest.

[fangool]

Yeah, I bet. Ain't you a supposed t'be a priest?

[missionaryman]

I am a priest, as it turns out.

sure let's just bring EVERYONE EVER

[kobrakid]

[ PEERS. ]

aw shit this is a party

[missionaryman]

[PEER BACK.] ...Is it safe to ask your name?

[kobrakid]

It's Kobra Kid.

[missionaryman]

And you're...from the zones? It's a guess, just a guess.

[kobrakid]

That's right. 'Least I don't have to try and explain that crap to you.

[missionaryman]

[Not that he doesn't have questions, but...] You probably get that a lot. You should consider turning it around. "What is this New York City you speak of? What new magic is this?"

[kobrakid]

Hah, never thought of that. "Y'mean you don't live in the desert? Shit, son, weird!"
