This is what I get for rewatching an old show...

[puttingonmyface]

Don't want a new muse, you say? Come now, you didn't really think you could stop me, did you? How funny. You only started thinking about my show again three hours ago, and already I have my very own journal.

Two of them, in fact. How I love when you're indecisive. I have to admit, I think you made the right decision.

But only 15 icons? My, my, we'll have to do something about that, now won't we?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, NO?!

Well, no matter. Another time, then.

Now do tell me why you wouldn't let me subscribe to this community. It would have flooded your inbox so beautifully...

reboot <3

[clu2_perfection]

How vain.

[puttingonmyface]

There's nothing wrong with a little vanity now and then, is there?

[clu2_perfection]

Programs do not need vanity as we're supposedly programmed by Users.

[lostinthelight]

Oh goody, another batshit insane...something.

[Like Maya's one to talk. She's also trying to ignore her mun's squealing.]

[puttingonmyface]

"Something" works, I suppose, but I prefer "virus."

[I love how she apparently has no issue with "batshit insane"...]

[lostinthelight]

What, like a computer virus?

[Quick, this one.]

So why do you look like a creepy dominatrix?

[And Hex shouldn't, it's a good thing to be! Maya herself likes being classified as crazy. It lets her get away with more mischief that way.]

[puttingonmyface]

Is there any other kind?

[Way to make it painfully obvious that you live in a computer, Hex.]

Oh, no particular reason.

[She waves a hand in front of her face and comes out of it looking a bit sad.]

Do you not like it? I like dressing this way.

[lostinthelight]

[Cue the raised eyebrow.]

Yeeeah, like cold viruses, flu viruses...I wonder if the Darkness can be considered a virus.

[She'll have to mull that one over later.]

Naw, it's good.

[And it is. She's seen weirder, actually. But.]

So what're you called? I'm Maya.

[puttingonmyface]

I didn't know any viruses were especially cold, or that they could fly. How interesting.

[I guess she heard that as "flew." Nevermind that that makes no sense.]

My name is Hexadecimal.

[lostinthelight]

No, the viruses cause sicknesses like colds. It's where you start feeling really bad and run a fever, end up with a stuffy nose, stuff like that.

[She's explaining human viruses to a computer virus. This is a first. The flying thing makes her want to laugh, but that might be a bad idea here. So she doesn't. Instead she just grins a little.]

Nice to meet you.

[And it is, weirdly enough. Maya needs more friends that are a bit 'off', despite what her mun thinks.]

So what's it like where you're from?

[Because all a computer is to Maya is an expensive box with breakable little bits inside.]

[strongestcoward]

Keeeiyaaah! Don't DO that!

[puttingonmyface]

Don't do what?

[strongestcoward]

Change your tone so suddenly!

[puttingonmyface]

I'm afraid you'll just have to get used to that. I'm nothing if not changeable.

[strongestcoward]

And...you're completely sure you won't consider being considerate?

[puttingonmyface]

Oh, I'll consider it.

...and now I'm done. I just have one question.

[I wish I had the scary mask icon uploaded.]

Why should I listen to you?!

[strongestcoward]

KEIYAAAAH!

[And, in a fit of terror Asura performs a backflip, shoves his fingers in his mouth and the large multitude of scarves he wears wave around like freaking out arms.

Wow what a loser he is.]

Cut it out, cut it out! Or you'll leave me no choice!

[puttingonmyface]

[People who react like that are so amusing.]

'No choice'? No choice but what?

[Oh dear, she sounds ~curious~]

[strongestcoward]

To...

[There's a moment of incredible tension, like he's just about to murder everything in the universe.]

...Change my mind and like it instead.

[And now a nice little smile and a 'problem solved' clap.]

[puttingonmyface]

[Head tilt.]

Well, that was anticlimactic.

[She waves a hand over her face, and suddenly looks very disappointed.]

I thought I was going to see something exciting.

[strongestcoward]

You don't know what I do to the things I like, ke-ke-ke. But I don't feel like disappointing a lady right now so-

[He copies her motion, except when he does it he hooks a finger into his cheek and apparently rotates his head right around. Despite the fact it's clearly impossible, the back of his head is apparently another face, although quite the nasty one. Crooked, huge teeth and a gigantic tongue dripping with some sort of...OOZE. Ooze which when it drips off looks like an eyeball before it splats. His voice has a weird echo to it.]

Please enjoy!

[puttingonmyface]

[This time the mask is positively grinning.]

Oh, now, this is better!

[Self preservation instinct, what is that?]

[strongestcoward]

Ah-hah! It seems you have taste! It looks like I'll like you even more. Until...But anyway!

[His head swings back around, returning to the barely more logical set up he had before. It does bob around like he's a bobble head for a few seconds, great big creepy grin of his own right back at her.]

Lets talk about things that aren't what we're talking about now. That'd be a change of pace.

[puttingonmyface]

Something else, you say?

[A slight pause.]

Oh yes, what should I call you?

[Because she has decided that this young man is absolutely delightful.]

[strongestcoward]

I don't do 'should'...but since you asked nicely- I am the terror lurking behind all minds, the voice from tomorrow that whispers impossible secrets, who living or awake plunges the world into insanity. I am fear itself, the Kishin, Demon God of Madness!

[He pauses, tapping his chin with a finger.]

But I keep my name to myself, so call me the Kishin if you feel like it.

[phongplayspong]

I think fifteen icons is more than you deserve, virus.

Phong~ <3

[puttingonmyface]

You say that as if it's a bad thing.

Hex <333

[phongplayspong]

Anything involving you or Megabyte is a bad thing.

So we like each other, they hate each other. ...all is well

[puttingonmyface]

Now really, don't you think that's a pretty limited perspective? I'm sure I could say the same of you.

[gonnawreckit]

Hey, we've all got to deal with the number of icons we get dealt in these games. It's all part of the program.

[puttingonmyface]

Program? What program is that?

[Maybe she can hack it.]

[gonnawreckit]

The program of, uh... Whatever game it is we're in right now. Trying to go against it can just make more harm than good.
