No, as a matter of fact, you do not know what you're doing.

You have enough work to do elsewhere. Do it. I'm not going anywhere.

When do muns really know what their doing?
I mean my mun just applied for a game and she's worried she's way over her head~ She should have thought of that before applying in the first place.

[a_survivor]

She almost does, most of the time. Sometimes, though...

Which game?

[reflectivepartier]

Someplace called Eway~ It's pretty badass looking.
I'm a mirror version of the person she just applied for so she's pretty excited.

[a_survivor]

Which can be either a good sign or a bad.

Good luck, either way.

[reflectivepartier]

Thank you!
So I'm guessing your mun is looking for a place for you? Any place in mind yet?

[a_survivor]

Not quite with the looking. Thankfully.

[latrodectus]

If your mun doesn't know what they're doing, then you're a good match, James.

[a_survivor]

The vote of confidence is overwhelming.

[latrodectus]

I thought you liked things better when they were difficult.

[a_survivor]

I do. She is significantly lazier, though.

[latrodectus]

But she wants to try. And you don't.

[a_survivor]

*sharp laugh* You are very good at goading people.

She doesn't, actually. She just can't make me go away - and she just barely knows me, if that.

[latrodectus]

I know you quite well. And you're not as difficult as most people think.

[sandwormie]

People usually don't. Mine only played really pretty reserved and kind of cynical characters before, and she's doing fine with me. That's how everyone starts, clueless I mean; sometimes you just have to go.

- just, yeah, other stuff is important too.

[a_survivor]

*softer expression? Softer expression*

Thank you. I think her problem is less with the kind and more with the details, such as most of the backstory. Of course, it hasn't stopped her before, but it's irritating.

[sandwormie]

Oh, yeah. It's always really awkward when someone gets things wrong. ...Mine's got this horrible trick memory where she'll remember all kinds of details, but not if they're canon or from a fic or what. [Luke rolls his eyes.] And then comes the self-doubt, but... everyone makes mistakes. You can't not. You just have to keep going sometimes.

[...Luke, you have too many issues to give me pep talks.] I was giving it to her! [You were multitasking.] Believe what you want. [Quit being so immature!]

[a_survivor]

At least she won't have that problem, she rarely reads fics.

*small nod* Thank you. About... making mistakes. *loaded subjects? Nooooot much.*

She is still amused at that. Pep talks can be dangerous.

[sandwormie]

They hurt and sometimes you can't make up for them. [...Luke got a pack animal he liked killed. To him right now, it's still a big deal.] But sometimes you can.

[Luke wrinkles his nose.] Anything can be dangerous.

[a_survivor]

*deep breath* From the mouths of...

True enough.

[always_a_gerbil]

Mundanes never seem to know what they're doing. I think it's kinda a rule for these places.

[a_survivor]

She's rarely quite that far out of the water. But at least she's working on it.

Steve. *bit of a smile. Guess who is generally set after Steve gets him to remember being Bucky, as opposed to Winter Soldier...*

[always_a_gerbil]

If she's working on it, then you've got a chance.

[He hadn't been sure if Bucky'd remember him, but this place is supposed to be neutral so he'd figured he'd give it a shot. Ducking his head, he tries to sort through his thoughts, but he just ends up chuckling nervously, stuttering like he had when he was smaller.] Bucky, I - it's - 'M glad you're here.

[a_survivor]

The question being, a chance for what.

*Oh, he remembers. It hurts a lot, but he remembers. Small sigh, but the next bit is perfectly truthful - and with a smile*

I'm glad you are. Complications notwithstanding.

[always_a_gerbil]

[Steve really wouldn't have been surprised if Bucky'd thrown a punch, or worse, at him. He's never quite forgiven himself for everything that happened, so he kind of expects Bucky to feel the same way. When the punch doesn't come, he smiles tentatively.]

We can deal with complications. And I'm sure you can deal with whatever your mundane's planning on throwing at you.

[a_survivor]

*no, anything that Steve did was right, and anything caused - well. Richly deserved. The smile, now that is... possibly less so.

Not that Bucky can quite help it. Not after everything*

Oh, no, she isn't. Aside from the fact that she rarely does that to her people, she isn't really intent on playing me - she just can't get rid of me. Sound familiar? That doesn't mean she knows the last thing about what she's doing.

*shakes head* Enough about that. What is happening to you?
