a loud and bossy charmed one? neverrrr

[justgonnaramble]

Okay I get that you miss playing me - how can you not? I'm amazing - but let's face it; you don't have time to put me in a game. Yes, okay, I miss where I was...no, well. I miss the people where I was. But no way can you keep up with something like that right now. I mean, yeah, maybe if you find something slower...

No! No. The point is, you don't have time. Not the kind of time it takes to devote to moi. And that's just unfair.

So stop thinking about it, stop getting me excited, and...do something else with your life!



Though I won't object to you letting me out more. Or...you know...updating my icons? Just a bit? A girl's gotta have more options than this.

Okay, you know making these posts is just begging to be apped, right? Look at her. She's showing all the signs.

[justgonnaramble]

Signs? What signs?

[freezings]

You do realize what games really are?

[justgonnaramble]

....what?

[freezings]

It's just-- they're dangerous and, and just-- they're generally not fun places to be. [ she just doesn't understand your excitement okay ]

[justgonnaramble]

I know, I know. Trust me, I remember. But at least it's something to do. And I made a lot of friends, and I had you and Phoebe there. Well, not you-you but a you.

[freezings]

You're lucky, then. Where I was, it was just... me, there. [ exhales ] It wasn't pretty.

[justgonnaramble]

Where were you?

[freezings]

A city called Taxon. It was... a long, long time ago.

What about you?

[justgonnaramble]

Paradisa. I lived in a castle. It was awhile ago too.

I'm sorry it was so bad for you, Piper.

[freezings]

Yeah, well. I'm sorry for biting your head off. I... forgot that maybe not all experiences in games were as bad as mine was.

[justgonnaramble]

Eh, I'm used to you biting my head off every now and then.

[freezings]

...you are?

[justgonnaramble]

A little bit.

[freezings]

See that's... that's a bit funny because if there's ever a Halliwell often biting peoples' heads off, it's usually Prue. Or Phoebe, in her off days.

[justgonnaramble]

What can I say? You get more...determined as you get older.

[astralling]

Taking your account out again, making posts like this, reaching out to people. It doesn't help that my player is a notorious bitch.

[justgonnaramble]

Oh. Right. Well she throws me around whenever she can, it just...doesn't happen often. Why does it not help that yours is a notorious bitch?

[astralling]

She collects people. It's a sickness.

[justgonnaramble]

She....collects people?

[astralling]

For her games.

[justgonnaramble]

Mine doesn't think she can be collected very easily. Like me, she requires wooing.

[astralling]

For your sake, I hope so.

[justgonnaramble]

Thanks. I'm trying to get her on the right path. Not that I know what path that is.

[molecules]

You really want your life to continue being dictated by people in charge who can't tell the difference between their head and their ass?

[ piper's a free bitch baby and loving it. ]

[justgonnaramble]

.....well, when you put it like that...


[WHY YOU SO SMART BIG SIS?]

[molecules]

It's like dealing with demons. They just don't know how to take a hint. We have more important things to do than play to their whims, Paige.

[justgonnaramble]

Like what? What important things are we doing Piper?

[molecules]

[ she pauses, because they've been in this life far too long tht she's forgotten what's important besides saving lives. ] Living our lives like a bunch of normal people for starters. Isn't that important?

[justgonnaramble]

Yeah yeah yeah. I mean...what do our writers have us doing? Nothing. They're all busy with other people in their heads and don't pay us attention anymore.

Remember when we were first? That was nice. At least then I felt needed.

[molecules]

You're always needed, Paige. Just because you're not charming the pants off of your idiot doesn't mean you're not needed.

[justgonnaramble]

Well don't you know how to make a girl feel special.

Still...don't you miss it sometimes? When we had a life somewhere? Even though...it was not easy at all. And...that whole "you didn't know I was your sister" thing.

[molecules]

Sometimes. [ which is piper telling the truth. she'd go out of her way to white lie a little to prove her point, but it's the truth. sometimes she misses it, like how sometimes she misses worrying about what to wear rather than when the next demonic attack is going to be. ] But then you weren't the one being constantly hit with news about your future. It wasn't fun for me at all. When I look back on it, it's actually kind of sad.

[justgonnaramble]

[paige knew this would come up, and she still doesn't know how to address it. not then and not now.]

I know. I...wish it could have been some other way, I wish...I don't know. I hated it, you know. Lying to you and then having to...break it to you. I'm so sorry you had to go through that, Piper. You know I wouldn't want that for you if I could help it.

[molecules]

Now I do, since I'm out of that place now.

[ and idiots behind the keyboard can slip in infomodding. either way, it finally feels good to admit to something she'd otherwise pretend didn't bother her for the sake of her sisters. ]

I don't like spoilers for my soaps. There's no way I'm going to want to know what I'm failing at later in my life. Being constantly bombarded - it was kind of worse than home. And the fact that people come and go ... We've lost too many people for that to be acceptable.

[ or piper has; mom, grams, andy, prue, leo at times, even phoebe on a temporary basis. she's lost so many people that it should be something normal for her, but it's something that she's still struggling to cope with - the void these people leave. piper's capable of finding the negative in a positive situation. ]

[justgonnaramble]

I know. I...I get that. And I'm sorry. It was just really hard living there without you knowing who I really was, and the rest...just kind of...it was unavoidable once you knew I was your sister.

[molecules]

And then the castle took you away. Can you see why I'm not really keen on these games? I've lost one sister. I can survive being shot, being possessed, being thrown through walls, but I can't survive that again.

[justgonnaramble]

Well when you put it like that....

I didn't want to leave. I hope you know that, too. But...yeah, there are a lot of drawbacks to being in a game. I wouldn't know how to handle losing a sister if it happened to me. It was hard enough having you there with no idea who I was, at least...you were there.

I just kinda miss being out and making friends. And I think she misses some of the better things. She's good at remembering the good over the bad.

[molecules]

At least you have that luxury. This one doesn't believe I can make friends. [ piper rolls her eyes, but it's her attempt to not be such a big debbie downer. ] I'm friendly. I charm the pants off of everyone I meet.

[justgonnaramble]

[a snort from paige..then she clears her throat]

Yeah, you're totally charming. Everyone should see that.

[molecules]

[ piper frowns, her tone a little snappy. she knows she heard something, and she knows paige a little better than she did in the castle to pick up on her quirks and give her hell for it. ] What was that?

[justgonnaramble]

[and here's a small uncomfortable smile?]

Heh heh...I mean, you're wonderful, Piper. Everyone should see it.


[so sickly sweet]

[molecules]

[ piper looks suspicious, eyes narrowed at paige. she speaks slowly: ] Something tells me you don't.

[justgonnaramble]

I do! I was teasing, relax. We do this. We tease each other.

[molecules]

Don't you think there's sometimes truth behind the teasing?
