on having been played for a month and then dropped... but the voice is still there ;;

[strahta]

Whether I am annoyed or disappointed at your previous failure is irrelevant, mundane. The point is that you must seriously think matters through if you wish to take me somewhere again. The application was adequate, and we may agree that during the first month when you were on top of things, I was doing quite well. However, your lack of discipline, drive, and time management skills have been your undoing, as well as mine and other new muses you've tried to cooperate with in the past. And for your information, of course I've perused through your records. It's only natural to endeavor in gathering any spec of information available before I get myself into any particular situation. You may not be as reckless as Asbel or as easy to influence as Sophie, but I will still strongly advise you to reconsider if you're contemplating me again. Keep in mind that no matter where you choose, I dislike staying idle and will strive to actively do what I can. If you cannot accommodate my working habits, then for both our sakes, just forget it while we're ahead.

[douchebert is rude to everyone and that includes mundanes 8(]

...Castmates? No one would be necessary, you already know that. I'm perfectly capable of working alone. I've been on my own for [...] a number of years, remember?

[still buttpained also as always, yep...]

Comments

[protosshaze]

You don't want me around, Hubert?

1/2

[strahta]

[


sputters internally because wow did that comment come back to bite him in the ass quick]

2/2

[strahta]

[but Hubert Oswell is a composed individual, most definitely, so he'll do well to hold that down...]

That's not what I said, Sophie. I simply meant that I can hold my own, if I'm going somewhere none of you are already present. Is that clearer now?

[protosshaze]

Oh. You and Asbel aren't where my mun wants me to go, either.

[strahta]

[...i-it's not like he cares or anything, but--]

Will you be alright? [Sophie is pretty gullible and it'd be bad if she meets the wrong people, all things considered.]

[protosshaze]

Yes. My mun says there are a lot of nice people there.

[strahta]

Be careful anyway, and don't be so easy to trust. You never know. [where there's nice people = THERE IS ALSO MEAN PEOPLE] Are you prepared?

[tailormade]

...

[ That was a lot of words. But he thinks he got the gist of it. ]

Couldn't you have just said "Leave me be if you're not serious"?

[strahta]

[short answer: yes




but shhhhhh details]

I prefer to be thorough. Besides, that's part of the problem. My mundane might believe herself to be wholly committed at the start and act accordingly, but it's with the passing of time that her resolve slackens.

[littlebroblue]

[Just going to look at you for right now]

[strahta]

[...well this is an


uncomfortable reminder]

...

[only hubert oswell is socially awkward enough to get into a mild staring contest with his younger self, huh. HE'S MAKING AN EFFORT TO NOT SCOWL LIKE HE USUALLY DOES, THOUGH... if that even... counts for anything right now...]

[littlebroblue]

[Little Hubert glances up]

My mun says...I grow up to be you.

[And the burning question in his mind right now is what happens when I go with that man but it goes unspoken]


[OOC: And I apologize in advance for any suckage here. Just totally decided to voice test Little Hubert on a whim since I also play his older, angrier self and wanted a little variety and the challenge of writing a child's voice. ♥]

[strahta]

[thanks for breaking the ice. You know something's wrong when your kid self has an easier time starting conversations than you do... 8V]

You do. The physical appearance should already be telltale, no?

((OOC: Don't sweat it, it's fine! o/ Wittle Hoobert is adorable and as sad as it is, his older grouchy self could totally learn a thing or two looking back at how he used to be, haha... And there's not enough Tsunbert on DWRP to balance out the collective dumb of the Asbels, so every last Hubert counts!!!))

[littlebroblue]

Yes...well, maybe except for the glasses. I mean, Mom and Dad don't wear them, so...

[He looks back down]

So, Strahta is really hot, right?


[OOC: LOLOL, awesomesauce. I love finding other Hubert players. ♥ He deserves so much love!]

[strahta]

I-- [...] We read a lot, so I suppose it was only a matter of time before our eyes started going bad. ...Just make sure to pick frames with a solid grip, that way it wouldn't interfere with military exercises.

[right, that...]

The climate is brutal inside the desert, but the capital is fine. There's plenty of water, thanks to Duplemar. [Capital being 'Yu Liberte' and Duplemar being 'the valkines cryas of Strahta' go without say, his 10 years old self totally already knew all that.]

((OOC: YEP haha ditto on that, Hubert just turned out this way because he clearly didn't get enough hugs as a child--!! if only I could get this guy to settle somewhere ;u;/))

[captain_cleavage]

...well. I certainly agree that anyone who decides to play you should know what sort of trouble they're in for.

[Which is why Malikah's mun has a canonswapped AU version of Hubert instead where he's light on the jerkitude and heavy on the awkwardly adorable fanboy. Her mun is weird, that way.]

[strahta]

[Don't let OU Hubert ever learn that, he pitches enough fits at the small details as it is. Tell him he's nice and (god forbid, awkwardly) adorable and he'll probably get a seizure.]

If they consider law and order 'troublesome', I would agree with you, Captain. People like that should give up in advance, it'll be the simplest solution for everyone.

[...

right Malik(ah)'s face is up THERE still not as busty as Victoria sry2say??] Your mundane seems fonder of trouble than mine, however. [because he sure doesn't remember you with the extra... assets, Capitaine. Not hard to put one and one together and figure out what might've possibly happened though... unless your name's Asbel Lhant, let's be honest here.]

[captain_cleavage]

My mun's a rather odd sort, it's true. It seems most of the time her only goal in learning rules is so she can take greater joy in breaking them.

[With magnificent cleavage.]

[strahta]

How barbaric. [hubert stop judging everyone openly AT LEAST MAKE AN EFFORT TO HELP YOUR MUN SAVE FACE... q_q] You're fine with that? [he'd at least expect a semblance of organization in your life, Captain. You ARE a man... woman of the military, after all.]

[captain_cleavage]

It's an interesting ride, so I don't mind it. I've gotten opportunities here that I wouldn't have otherwise. [Like talking with Kurt. Even if he wasn't her Kurt.] It's fine to relax once in a while, you know. Life becomes easier to manage if you do.

[spelunky]

[Have a Pascal intruding on your personal space?]

Aw, don't be like that, Little Bro! Don'tcha wanna come play with all of us?

[strahta]

[--w h y

...no okay he's just going to auto-switch to his tsundere SCOWL OF ANNOYANCE and back away a bit because rude he was using that personal space pascal!!1!]

I'll be perfectly fine without any of you, things will be far simpler that way. [because face it you're all reckless whereas he's the cautious and calculating one. Not having anyone else = not having friends to worry about. There's that 'roundabout caring' again, but like hell he's going to be straightforward right now] And stop calling me that, Pascal! [yet he says that even when he knows it'll just completely fly over her head


alas, logic and reason can only get one so far...]

[spelunky]

[Except she just inches closer because hey, sharing is caring! In fact, she's even enhancing said space with the odor that accompanies an unbathed body. Consider this your lucky day!]

Oh man, it'd be totally great to have the whole gang assembled again! [The thought causes her to swing her arms as if she's running in place, unable to contain the enthusiasm that follows the spinning gears in her head when coming up with another awesome idea.] It'll be like when we were in the Rockgagong – we could make a family and band together and stuff. Ohmigosh, I can't wait, Little Bro!

[y u p . . . logic and reason, just not in the conventional way. And it's not as if she's purposely disregarding him, she's... well, Pascal. 'nuff said.]

[strahta]

[BUT HE NEVER LIKED STRAY CATS HE'S NOT EVEN A CAT PERSON....


/internally assumes fetal position and cries quietly to self

By which okay FINE HE WILL TAKE TWO WHOLE STEPS BACK, getting on Pascal's case about baths is her sister and the girls' job. and it's true how can he forget you can't fight off pascal with conventional pragmatism and common sense, and those are his greatest defenses... q_q no wonder he never stood a chance]

There is no need to assemble everyone together. [it's not like there's any special occasion, and hubert's got enough WIS to not comment that out loud because Fodra knows Pascal'll make a ridiculous one up on the spot]. We're all busy and have various matters to take care of, cease being so selfishly inconsiderate and think of other people's availabilities and wants! If you wish to discuss the time you were trapped inside the Rockgagong, I suggest you go find Cheria instead. In case you've forgotten [because she CLEARLY has], I was stationed in Lhant at the time.

[...or secretly making his way to Yu Liberte even after agreeing to have Asbel run the errand in his stead. Either or.]

[spelunky]

[You say that now, but one day. ONE DAY...

... not that she'll ever notice though, o o p s ]

Whoa, you don't have to be such a party-pooper, Little Bro. [Seriously, that's no fun at all! Why you gotta be all angry all the time?] I just thought it would be kinda neato if everyone got together again like the good ol' times. [How can she be faulted for that? Sob. She just misses all her friends, okay! It's all on his conscience now.]

Well yeah, but it's kiiinda like you were there because your charm saved us and stuff. Y'know, it's like you were one of those guys from the so-and-so Rangers or whatever, swooping down to save the day! [Nevermind that it was probably all a fluke, but details.]
