Voice testing; planning to app to outer_divide

[growingwild]

And I suppose you expect me to be all grateful that you're sending me someplace with green things, am I? Nevermind that my sisters or even Rosethorn and Evvy aren't going to be there. They're going to be real mad, you know, when they find me gone. If I were you, I'd start running now. Maybe then you won't spend the rest of your life always being rained on, or with all your clothes coming undone, or with all your fancy gadgets rusting.

Now leave me out of all your games!

ooc like a crazy person - sorry!

[but_idontlie]

oh my god it's a Briar.

♥ ♥ ♥

TP's books are underappreciated.

[growingwild]

Briar's going to give you an odd look now. He's been called 'the boy' or 'that brat', or plenty of other thinks that Rosethorn would throw him into the well for for repeating, but 'a briar' is a new one'.

I'm Briar, not a briar. And if you want to talk books, you want my mate Tris for that.

[Briar pauses, then shrugs]

Oh, and my mun says hi. She seems to think there's a few people around who like those books of yours.

[whatsupcroc]

Yeah! You tell her!

[growingwild]

I already did, didn't I?

Now if you knew how to get her to listen, I'd love to know how.

[whatsupcroc]

Even if I knew, what's the benefit in telling you?

( She winks, tone teasing. )

Maybe the enforced excitement would be good for you! But really, we don't get much choice in where we go when they're pulling the strings.

[growingwild]

Well, if you told me then I'm sure I could find a way to make it up a pretty lady like you.

[Briar winks back - hey, she's pretty and sounds like she might have a good sense of fun.]

I've already have more than enough excitement, thanks. It's the quiet life for me now.

[whatsupcroc]

Mmm, I'm thinking -- skydiving. Yep. Sounds like the best way.

( Joking, but only because hey she can fly on her own THAT IS LEGITIMATE! )

Last words right there, you so know that, don't you?

[interspace]

Threats don't work on them. They exist in a realm outside our influence. It's totally unfair and absolutely why they pick on us.

[growingwild]

No one is outside of Rosethorn's influence.

[interspace]

How little you know. You are so cute, you belong in a pocket, not in a pocket-universe.

[growingwild]

[Briar tucks his hands behind his back and grins. Aw, shucks]

A nice pocket, I hope.

[interspace]

Those pockets about match the cuteness of whatever you put inside. So they aren't lonely, you see.

[pageunwritten]

It seems to me as if youre in serious need of a decent sense of adventure madam.

[growingwild]

I've already had more than enough adventure. I'd like to try not having adventures. Or maybe just the nice, quiet adventures. Like 'going to the market' maybe, or 'becoming very rich'.

And who are you calling madam?

[pageunwritten]

Hogswallop! Theres no such thing as more than enough adventure. Perhaps you simply havent been having the right kinds of adventures though i suppose a trip to the marketplace might qualify depending on how far you have to travel and what transpires therein.

Er im sorry it looks like my typist was operating under the impression that all of you magic plant people were female and not taking a close enough look at your pictures. My sincerest apologies. Sir!

[growingwild]

[Briar's voice turns flat, and hollow] Yes. There is.

Lakik's teeth, why would they think that? Green magic is green magic, it doesn't have anything to do with being male or female.

[pageunwritten]

No theres not!

I guess all the other magic plant people theyve seen around from your world were female? I dont know it seems a mite judgmental if you ask me.

[lovemesomepie]

Get out while you still can, kid.

[growingwild]

What do you think I'm trying to do? Does it look like I'm just sitting here and letting her take me whichever way she pleases?

[lovemesomepie]

S'a mun. The struggle makes the hunt that much better.

[growingwild]

Hunt? I ain't hunting anything.

[eightdead]

Yeah, sorry, there's no real way to actually threaten them. Pretty sure they just sit and laugh at us.

[growingwild]

Well I'm sure not going to just give up and make it easy for her.

[eightdead]

Might as well have a little fun, right?

[growingwild]

I don't see what's so fun about it.
