On his pending app with The Wake

[derpjack_ftw]

Mun, maybe you think you're doin' okay, but all of us?  We can see it.  That flare the night before last?  An' the deep exhaustion of the past fraggin' week, excessive even for you?  It's because you're stressin' yourself sick.  An' you know as well as anyone how the mods work when it comes ta app'ing - you were one, a helper, an' for how long again?

"It could be as late as Tuesday" does not necessarily mean "if we haven't gotten back ta you by then, there's a problem with your app."  An' definitely not "we haven't answered ya because we actually don't want ya back an' we're hopin' you'll just go away" . . . or whatever slag you've had rattlin' around in your head.

Seriously!  This is still goin' on even after Jendayi's mun, your best friend, TOLD you last night that one of the mods is havin' computer issues as of Saturday an' can't even get online at all?  Let alone give feedback on my app?  C'mon, Dragon, you're better'n this.  Although, yes, I agree that a courtesy note sayin' they got our app but are havin' schedulin' issues and they'll get back to us as soon as they can - or somethin' like that - really would have been nice...

So just tell those . . . what does your friend call 'em?  "Brain weasels"?  Just tell those fraggin' brain weasels ta knock it off already!

Lemme tell ya, if we had access ta that part'a your mind, me an' a bunch of my headmates in here woulda hunted those fraggin' little troublemakers down by now.  You know Yami woulda Penalty Game'd 'em YEARS ago if he could.

*long car-engine sigh*

My mun is simply snarling at the computer and has run out of old RP moments to re-read. Oh, wait, I think she's going to re-re-read them. Egads, I think I would prefer her to write Starscream fics. Starscream certainly keeps egging her on enough.

We did get the notice that my 300-word sample was, ah, not 300 words long. Mun hasn't heard back since we fixed it. However, given my mun's not-to-distant frustration with having her laptop out of commission and in repairs, she understands the delay.

Unfortunately, she's about as patient as, well, Wildrider.

*sighs again*

I have to actually be in a game to be doomed, so I'm sure we'll be accepted.

[derpjack_ftw]

Heh . . . you're soundin' a lot like Huffer, you know that?

[Far from a complaint, the tone is fond.]

Anyway, yeah. Doesn't take a committee ta be able ta ask for that kinda revision. It's pretty straight-forward. Hopefully we'll both hear back really soon, either way. By this weekend, at least. My mun's startin' ta climb the walls about as bad as yours as it is. She understands too . . . but still. Pit, she needs a distraction.

[apreacherboy]

It would be so wonderful to have you back my friend, please, take heart, and your mun as well, because you are dearly loved.

8D *GLOMPHUGS* <3

[derpjack_ftw]

Jesse! Pit, are you a sight for dim optics! How ya been, pal? I'm really lookin' forward ta seein' you again. I've missed ya.

=D

[apreacherboy]

I have missed you as well. And I have kept watch for you, once people awoken before and gone away began returning. It is hard to have hope, but harder still to not.

[derpjack_ftw]

Yeah . . . it is.

Hey, listen. I . . . I'm sorry for leavin'. I know I'd always said I would never abandon you guys. Just that . . . Mun's life had fallen so far apart that she just couldn't deal with mine too anymore. But! This year has really been a 180 turnaround for her! She's really excited about the stuff that's goin' on for her now, and she finally felt she was ready ta try ta let me Awaken again.

[apreacherboy]

I am glad to hear that life is going better for her. You have been missed, but never far from our hearts.

[derpjack_ftw]

You've all always been close ta my spark too.

[deadster_awake]

William Jesse! Indeed, you are one of the people I look forward to speaking with again... the mun was delighted to see that you were still at the Wake.

[derpjack_ftw]

Oh good! You guys're friends! Jesse's part'a my family. He's a good guy.

[deadster_awake]

Indeed, I was one of the first people to greet him when he arrived at the Wake. I believe I first presented myself in car form, to be less alarming.

[derpjack_ftw]

[Snickering]

Considerin' his reality's tech level, I can imagine how well that musta still gone over.

[apreacherboy]

Dead End was the first soul I met in Nautilus, and my first friend in the city.

[derpjack_ftw]

Yeah, I think I can say he was probably mine too. Toss-up between him an' V.

[Almost certainly - probably over coffee and those little cakes they used to enjoy together sometimes - he's told William Jesse about the trip to Furman's his first day for a drink with one who'd been an enemy only "hours" before in his experience . . . and about the surprise visit the day before the Battle of Kaliste, after Nautilus saw fit to broadcast a minor breakdown he had. Jack for one has always appreciated those conversations.]

[apreacherboy]

Dead End! I have not the words to express how glad I am to hear that you are returning!

[deadster_awake]

I will be glad to be back, though the mun warns me I may have some... minor memory issues at first. They should clear up eventually, if I should survive so long.

[apreacherboy]

If it is any consolation, the city is not as deadly as it once was.

[prettyfly4adinobot]

You Wheeljack's mun worry too much. You be fine.

Him Wheeljack get in just fine. Swoop sure. Is just time first.

LOL forgive him - we had another TFA Swoop in game for a while, and he and Jack had adopted each--

[derpjack_ftw]

((ooc: --other. <3))



Swoop! Hey! How ya been, buddy-!

[Aaaaand it kind of occurs to him belatedly that this isn't the SAME other-Swoop that he knew. Which means Swoop probably doesn't actually know who he is. Oops.]

Um . . . I mean . . . Hi! Nice ta meetcha. An' thanks. Are you in Nautilus now? Or headin' there too?

ffff, I know. Because I am that Swoop. That Swoop is me 8D

[prettyfly4adinobot]

[Don't worry Wheeljack, Swoop remembers you. He chirps and smiles.]

Me, Swoop, missed you Wheeljack. Very much. But. Me no think me coming back to Nautilus. Not just yet.

Her mun-human trying juggle too many other people. Is silly.

OHAI! 8D <333 LOL right, diff name on DW from LJ, gotcha. XD;;;

[derpjack_ftw]

((I know you're at R/A too - been trying to figure out how/why to tag Barricade, but TC's been uncooperative. XD;;;))



[ORITE! Okay...same Swoop - Jack's just confoozled. He'll step up to wrap arms around the slim Dinobot in a HUG.]

Well . . . I can understand that. Still, I hope things work out that ya get ta return sometime. I know V'd love ta see ya again. Oh, an' ya'd get ta meet Jetfire! You'd love him, he's a sparklin' an' a flyer, like you. An' a real sweet spark.

I've still got the kitten-roses ya left behind. V gave 'em ta me ta take care of. At least . . . I hope they're still there. Gonna look for 'em when I get back. Or else hopefully V's got 'em.

Yep X3 I did some username-tweaking here and there during the move

[prettyfly4adinobot]

((He's around for any plotting you might have! And I should try to take you with Fracas or Renko sometime.))

[Swoop trills happily, hugging Wheeljack back. His frand 8D]

Him V still there too? Me Swoop miss friends in city very much. Would like to meet him Jetfire too. Maybe mun-human consider it.

Me happy to hear roses are okay. Is nice, that you Wheeljack and him V kept them.

Unfortunately, I'm terrible at coming up with plotty ideas, but YEAH 8D

[derpjack_ftw]

Yeah, I hope she does.

Of course! Someone had to, right? They're so beautiful . . . an' they purr. I love 'em.

Haha, don't worry. I'm sure something will come up sooner or later!

[prettyfly4adinobot]

Me, Swoop, still glad you did. Is very nice of you. And me glad you like so much.

[deadster_awake]

*sighs*

I'm going to need help peeling the mun off the ceiling. She plays Everquest to distract herself from the pending app... only you know how they used to call it "Evercamp"? Indeed. All she needs is one lousy piece to complete her epic and I am getting really tired of hearing her complain about the Plane of Hate. Sounds like the sort of place Motormaster would hang out in.

Still haven't heard anything from the august gatekeepers. Have you?

[derpjack_ftw]

Yeah, mine's been busy with financial slag, an' then she's got studyin' ta do for a class she's taking.

Haven't heard anythin' but Mun did finally drop a quick PM for the mods just checkin' in ta ask where things stand. Hopefully someone'll answer soon. Like . . . by Monday, at least.

[deadster_awake]

Well, shortly after I posted this, imagine my surprise when the mun informed me that the app had indeed been accepted. Perhaps you will be hearing from yours soon.

[derpjack_ftw]

Yeah, she heard back. RIGHT after she PM'd 'em. Though it looks like they commented BEFORE that. So now she's feelin' stupid, but she'll get over it.

An' congratulations!

[deadster_awake]

Well, if you're up late, I've made my somewhat confused introduction to the Wake.

Apparently, I'm currently the only Decepticon. Have I yet mentioned that I'm doomed?

[derpjack_ftw]

Heh, you'd only be doomed if the war was in Nautilus. But I can think of at LEAST four Autobots just off the top'a my head who'll have your back if ya need it. Me included, of course.
