Voicetesting and probably looking

[ He sighs and turns away. No, he doesn't want to speak ]

I don't want to be "sent to a game". I'm fine here.

[ Trying hard to ignore his annoying mundane but no can do. ]

Don't you have any other muses to bother?

[ ... ]

( ... Whatever. )

[Oh man, maybe she shouldn't have mentioned anything. Her and her damn attempts to be positive.]

It's a place called Atia. The game is amatomnes. It's, uh...

It's a sex game.

Y-

[ Sometimes, words just aren't strong enough. ]

You're kidding me...

D8 *Phoenix Down?*

[sorcery_fledgling]

[Normally she'd disagree but yeah, occasionally words just don't do the situation justice.

She's looking understandably embarrassed as she keeps her eyes off of Squall. If she did it would just double the embarrassment - and the blush.]

I wish I was. But um, see? Your mun wouldn't be that evil, right?

*revived* He'll live... Somehow.

[seed_of_cronos]

( Doing something like that, it's beyond good and evil. )

... I guess.

[ He hopes, dearly. And he's a bit embarrassed as well, but none of it shows. That's when all those years spent to hide his emotions come in handy. Facepalming helps too. ]

\o/ And oh that icon. I LOVED THAT SCENE

[sorcery_fledgling]

So there you have it. It's not so bad! Mission accomplished. [Despite her residual embarrassment and blush, she gives a little triumphant fist pump. Optimism has won out, at the cost of humiliation on her end and possibly some of Squall's brain cells.]

But honestly... I guess it wouldn't be so bad if I had friends there, or at least Angelo. Then again, maybe it's better off if people I care about aren't dragged into that place. I'm torn, you know?

As I do! Especially since I discovered the good ending of the scene (got the bad one for years)

[seed_of_cronos]

...

[ How can she look cheerful even in such a situation? That's beyond him. He's just going to turn his head to her, then ponder.

That would be easy for him, he's used to be alone. But for her... He really doesn't want her to feel lonely or that. Yet he can't imagine any of the others wanting to go there. Except Irvine. Obviously. ]

( Hum... )

Could your mun be convinced to pick another game, given the right arguments?

[ And lots of cold glaring. ]

Awww. I have gotten both of them and...yeah. Bad ending: never again

[sorcery_fledgling]

[Another game? Hmmm...]

She is already sending me to Atia. She won't budge on that because she has someone there already and she has HER friends there. [She pauses and considers something else.] I might be able to convince her ti send me to a second game. Maybe? That would be nice, especially if everyone else is there.

[seed_of_cronos]

[ Well, at least he tried. And he won't persist uselessly in his attempts. But, a second game? Her courage can only be admired. ]

... I'll keep you informed if mun and I find a game with the others then.

[ But he's not getting his hopes up. ]

[sorcery_fledgling]

[She's grateful for his effort; it's way more than he would have given when she first met him. For all her whining and complaining to her mun, she knew it was an impossible battle. However, Squall's offer brightens her up considerably.]

Would you really? I'd really like that! Oooh, wouldn't that be fun if we were all in a game together? The six of us?

[Okay that'd be slightly insane, too, but really really fun! She laughs nervously, imagining how he must be picturing.]

I know, it probably just sounds like a headache to you, but I think it'd be great.

[seed_of_cronos]

[ It would be nice to know they're all safe, and he figures it'd make Rinoa's life easier. ]

I guess...

[ He can imagine it just fine. Zell eating tons of hot dog, Quistis managing her newly founded fanclub, Selphie recruiting everybody she meets for her parties, Irvine hitting on everything seemingly female and Rinoa constantly trying to push him in the middle of that chaos.

... Yeah, but no. Damn, he's already regretting his offer. ]

It'll probably take time to find a game with them all though.

[ Hopefully, never. Here's what happens when he lets his emotions take over, even just for a few seconds. ]

[sorcery_fledgling]

[Maybe so, but he's made her happy in the process!]

Thanks, Squall! [She beams.] Don't push yourself, though. I mean, even if just one or two of the others are there, that's something, right? And a bit less crazy.

[But she likes it when he gets a bit more emotional D8 Though he's probably right, and he may not succeed, but it's the thought that counts!]

[seed_of_cronos]

[ One or two? Now that'd be easier... Actually, he probably even saw one or two game with that. At least she's not sad for now. ]

Yeah, that should be manageable.

[ If that makes her happy. Wait, what? No no, he didn't think that. At all. Damn emotions. ]

[sorcery_fledgling]

I'll keep an eye out for them, too, if I can convince my mun to stop being lazy and start looking. No need for you to do all the hard work~

[D'awwww. He's just a big softie underneath it all, and she already knows it. No use denying it <3 ]

[seed_of_cronos]

... Maybe you'll have more luck than us.

[ He both hopes they will and will not. He's just... going to be happy this conversation seemingly comes to an end before he makes another mistake. And force ask his mun to pick an early canon point for whichever game he'll be sent to. Makes for less mistakes. ]
