testing out new character!

[perversed]

Don’t sweat it, don’t sweat it! Cool as Morgiana and Aladdin are, you ended up making the right choice in picking me, the main character! Well, second to first but at least I’m not a side character which is more than what I can say for other guys and ladies you had in mind.

 

A guy’s gotta ask though -- where you planning to send me? Wonder man Alibaba can’t be cast aside like the rest of them ‘cause I’ll just make myself heard, if that’s how you’re going to play it.

Isn't Aladdin the main character?

[perversed]

If we’re talking about the main focus, then I guess that’s true... Like I said, don’t sweat the small stuff!

[king_of_sindria]

Of course, the manga should be about myself, but I suppose a story about an overpowered hero would get boring after a while.

[perversed]

Who cares about a main character who is thirsty for power!? That’s not what the people want in a story! Obviously the main focus should be on a character who is easy to relate to, someone who can pierce the hearts of all the people and make all the ladies swoon!

[king_of_sindria]

Silly Alibaba, I already told you that they can't make the story about me! I appreciate it, though.

I'm sure you'll get there, one day.

[perversed]

Hahaha, aren’t you being a bit vain in thinking that I’m making the story about you, Sinbad?

... ... ... Obviously the story is all about my adventures!

[king_of_sindria]

You've still got a long way to go, before you can boast at that level.

[perversed]

Don’t you mean that you are the one that has a long way to go? It’s okay, I understand. I mean, not everyone can be as amazing as me.

[unreachableutopia]

...Are you the main character? My mundane said that this Aladdin boy is the protagonist.

[perversed]

[ okay alibaba, don’t freak out - just come up with an excuse ] That’s what the people want you to believe, but the truth is that I’m the real main focus of the story. Aladdin is just the teaser, you know?

[unreachableutopia]

So is this young boy a "decoy protagonist" then?

[ she assents, slightly believing this. ]

[perversed]

Take away the ‘protagonist’ from that sentence, and I’ll accept it. You see, Aladdin is just The decoy.

[unreachableutopia]

Hm. Why do you care so much?

hi april

[peachbaths]

Wh, what was that you said about side characters!? [ icon keywords ]

who is april, i know no april here

[perversed]

I didn’t mean you were a side character, Princess. [ he totally did mean that, but details ] I meant all the other guys!

yeah i know no yana either...

[peachbaths]

I, I see. [ She turns away. ] But there is another thing that you've forgotten.

we are just two new people, clueless to the world of rp...

[perversed]

[ ? Huh... he certainly wouldn't be lying if he admitted to not knowing what the Princess was talking about, but no use overthinking these things. ... Right? ]

If that’s the case, please fill me in on what I’ve forgotten because I can’t think of what it is that’s amiss.

let's go with that

[peachbaths]

[ Well okay.

She hits him on the head. ]

I told you not to call me Princess!

also do excuse me failing with him cries

[perversed]

Ouch! [ At that, he rubs his head somewhat as he looks at the other girl with an expression that clearly said; What did you do that for!? ] Ah- haha, sorry about that. Force of habit, I guess. So, ‘Kougyoku’ is fine?

it's okay shh kougyoku is new to me too!

[peachbaths]

Yeah! [ Because friends don't need to be so formal. ] Has your mun decided on a game yet?

how does one play from magi!!

[perversed]

I wouldn’t say that she’s made a solid decision just yet which is annoying but she seems to be eyeing that place where you get assigned a family so far. Though, I think that’s only because people she knows are there.

idk i just know how to play losers

[peachbaths]

Because she has friends there, right? Isn't it natural to want to be with your friends?

same -- oh wait, i'm still playing one

[perversed]

When worded like that, I suppose being with friends is the better option out of being alone. Still, she hasn’t made a final decision yet so it’s just a matter of waiting to see where the wind blows me. Or, in my case, where the mun throws me.

APRIL DON'T BE MORGIANA - DON'T THROW ALIBABAS!!!

[peachbaths]

That doesn't sound very safe...

[peachbaths]

But, um! I'm not friends with anyone else in my game, so... I would - I would like it if you could drop by sometime!

[amazingmagi]

[ Uh-oh. He heard all that Alibaba. ]

... Say, Alibaba-kun. Do you remember the guy who cried all night when I told him I was going to go on traveling alone?

[ stare ]

[perversed]

[ ... Balls. ]

Tha― That was because you suddenly decided something like that on your own and then told me out of nowhere! And I wasn’t crying. I was surprised, what else do you want me to say!?

[amazingmagi]

Uh-huh. [ he doesn't sound impressed. ]

We might be separated now, but that doesn't mean you've taken the main character status from Mor-san and me, you know!

[perversed]

... Tch. [ good job aladdin, now you’ve got him sulking. ] I’m still waiting for my own screen-time back from you, don’t think I haven’t noticed how you seem to be getting the spotlight recently.

[amazingmagi]

That's not my screen time though. It's more about magicians in general. [ I mean, he's not the one having flashback episodes here okay. ]

Were you feeling left out or something?

[upriser]

I've never seen a main character being the butt of everyone's jokes so many times, though.
