Muse wants out...

[gaveupemotions]

A lack of emotions does not negate the desire for fresh air, mundane.

Comments

pardon the dusty muse I haven't had much practice with her lately ;-;

[blue_sophia]

[ Tough shit, Ledah. At least you're not alone in shipping hell. ] Neither is it a good reason for neglecting your duties.

[gaveupemotions]

Were it that those who assign my duties were among us in this place, I would be inclined to agree with you.

[ Come on Malice, you know arguing with him is impossible. ]

[blue_sophia]

Hmph. [ I love you too, Ledah. Not. ] Our duties are clear enough, or have you forgotten your orders already?

[gaveupemotions]

I lack the means and the opportunity to carry them out here. My orders are effectively suspended until it is rectified.

[ Yes, he's basically saying "I can't blow up Riviera without actually being there." ]

[blue_sophia]

[ Oh well can't argue with that, except ] And this is all you have to show for that? Tsk.

[gaveupemotions]

[ You know insulting him has zero effect, Malice. He literally cannot be insulted. He has no ego to wound. ]

Unfortunately, yes. I cannot destroy a world I cannot reach. Unless you have a solution?

[blue_sophia]

[ Right, right, she's so used to taunting the Sprites anyway. ]

By eliminating all obstacles, or have the Sprites softened you to even that?

[gaveupemotions]

You are suggesting I kill my mundane? That would result in my own death as a muse. I am not prone to suicide.

[blue_sophia]

I'm merely suggesting you do your duty, whether that entails eliminating yourself or otherwise.

[gaveupemotions]

Surely you must realize that my death would entail failure of my mission in its entirety.

[ Seriously, Malice? Suicide = success? ]

My only logical option is to attempt to persuade my mundane to allow me to return. Or perhaps to find a different way to complete it, at one of these 'games.'

[blue_sophia]

[ Hey, she was gonna kill him eventually. But granted, it would be terribly inconvenient were he to find out. ]

And on that I'm forced to concede to you. Even my own mundane is stubborn in that regard. [ PICK A GAME FOR HER ALREADY MUN, SHE DOESN'T HAVE LONG TO LIVE, DAMN. ]

[gaveupemotions]

I will admit that I was not expecting concession from you, Malice.

My mundane wishes to inform yours that when she does find one, he intends to send me with you. Their 'ship' intrigues him.

[blue_sophia]

Tch. [ As half-hearted as that is, she's got more important things to do than to argue him for all eternity. ] Such a thing isn't part of the gods' will.

[gaveupemotions]

It is unfortunate and perhaps heretical, but it would appear that our mundanes can do with as they please, as illogical as the concept of me forming any sort of romantic attachment is.

[blue_sophia]

[ "Perhaps"? ] It's impossible. Our purpose is determined by the gods, not some pathetic mortals.

[gaveupemotions]

And yet these mortals have near-total power over us.

I would suggest that you persuade your mundane to find a place for us. At least then we would have marginally more free will.

[blue_sophia]

Hmph, a terrible idea. That would only give her an excuse to go along with her plans for me.

[gaveupemotions]

I am unable to object to their plans for us. That said, I do not see how it is possible to form romantic attachments without emotion.

[blue_sophia]

Really. [ She'd like to think she's far stronger than that. ] Then let them believe what they will if it suits our purpose.

[gaveupemotions]

I am afraid it isn't that simple. If we are sent somewhere, we will have no control over it. We will likely be 'shipped' with or without our approval, even if I am unable to neither provide nor decline approval in any form.

[blue_sophia]

If the gods approve, then so be it. [ Aaaaanyway, she's too fucked up to care in either case. ]

[gaveupemotions]

My point was that our mundanes do not seem to care about the opinion of the gods. They will do whatever they find to be 'cute' or funny.

[blue_sophia]

[ Scoffing. ] They can try. I won't make it easy for them.

[gaveupemotions]

Perhaps even I will be impressed if you resist them.

Do you truly wish to resist their idea to 'ship' us only because the Gods may not approve?

[blue_sophia]

[ Mostly because she doesn't approve, but hey ]

They would dare get in the way of our purpose.

[gaveupemotions]

They get in the way of our purpose merely by bringing us here. I do not see how shipping us would do any further damage to our cause.

[ No, Malice, he doesn't understand that shipping is embarrassing. ]

[blue_sophia]

Did your time with him also make you give up your imagination, I wonder? [ Hair. Flip. ]

[gaveupemotions]

I do not know what it is I am supposed to be imagining. I have spent the majority of my time trying to imagine how I will feel love for someone without emotions, regardless of the physical attractiveness of the woman in question.

[blue_sophia]

[ Chuckling. ] It's not like you to care about something so useless. Focus on your mission. That is all we're here for, regardless of their…distractions.

[gaveupemotions]

I will have no reason to be distracted without my mundane. Until he allows me to leave, I am rather powerless.
