recent apps and plurk are enough to get a girl's hopes up

[exloserspromise]

If you're having so much trouble putting together this "fishing post" thing, maybe you should just set it aside for a while and try again later. I know how much you want to see all these different people from my world and there are a few I'd love to see again myself, but you can't force creativity. Go do something else for a while, get your head together, and then come back and see what you can come up with. It's not like I'm gonna run off in the meantime.

...This is what you're using? Really? I don't think this is going to impress anybody we don't already know, but you're the boss.

You never run, do you.

[exloserspromise]

Well. Not away from trouble. [Here, have a self-deprecating smile! It's better than some of the alternatives.]

I heard I'd be seeing you around, but I didn't quite believe it. How're, uh, things?

[notrosie]

Less eventful, now you're gone. Although they may not stay that way for long.

[exloserspromise]

Really? What's going on over there?

[frosti]

Perhaps your mun needs a break da?

[exloserspromise]

She probably does, but if past experience is anything to go by she'll keep at it until she has to take a break.

[frosti]

That's a bad way to go. Restraint is good for the soul.

[exloserspromise]

You won't find me arguing. This still seems to be better than she used to be, though: no moderation at all.

[slewthetyrant]

You think that sort of thing really works?

[exloserspromise]

[Shrug.] Hasn't for us so far, but she's still willing to try.

[slewthetyrant]

Let me know if it does, I could use some familiar faces.

Though with my luck, they'd end up being the wrong ones.

[liugan]

You should never encourage procrastination, Captain.

[exloserspromise]

There's a difference between procrastination and a strategic retreat.

[liugan]

They do not see it as retreat. They see it as an opportunity to busy themselves with other, less important matters.

[wwii]

Doesn't impress everybody you do know, either. [ hey, punk. ]

[exloserspromise]

Hey, just because your taste is limited to whether something looks good in a dress doesn't mean others can't be dazzled by my mere presence. [jerk.]

[wwii]

They just don't know you like I do.

[declares]

Then I suppose what you are 'fishing' for is companions, and the bait is your own company.

[exloserspromise]

That's one way of putting it, although I'd rather avoid having a hook through me.

[istillbelieveinheroes]

It's hard to believe none of the others have shown up, Captain Rogers. Oddly, my mun was talking to someone else about this... world the other day.

[exloserspromise]

Mine thinks people are a little intimidated by the possibilities and figuring out the whole window thing. I just think it would be nice to have a few more people around.

[istillbelieveinheroes]

Window thing? My Intel is lacking at the moment it seems.

[oneslickedison]

We shall follow you into battle, good sir ... just not sure about this, chum.

[exloserspromise]

Not even if I tell you there are beautiful, intelligent, sexually liberated women from the future?

[oneslickedison]

...How beautiful, how intelligent, and how ... liberated? Give me parameters, Steve.
