Looking for a game? 8D;

[asblackas]

Oh, so you'd like to have a little fun? Play a few games? Excuse me if I don't find the idea appealing. I'd rather return to my solitude than become some puppet on a string.

And no, I don't regret my decision to not join the Guardians all that time ago, and I never will join them. Fear is ever-present. My day will come.

Waaaait-- wait wait. Decision?

[Spoiler alert! Jack's interested in that.]

[asblackas]

[Of course he is.]

Did you think they didn't offer? How else would I have known about that very big consequence to the whole idea?

[collectedmemories]

[She isn't one to hold grudges, but that doesn't exclude the fact of what he did.]

We really did want you to be a Guardian, Pitch. But you took things into your own hands and we had to stop you.

And we will again if it comes to it.

[asblackas]

I went on as I always had until your little plan left me in exile. It was about time all of you learned what it was like.

[He is Not Happy. Being invisible to children is like not existing, Tooth.]

[collectedmemories]

You gave us no other choice! If you weren't going to protect the children, then we had to stop you from hurting them.

[asblackas]

There was no room for Fear in your little group. That was made abundantly clear from the start.

[collectedmemories]

That didn't mean you still couldn't be one of us. We weren't sure how it was going to go if you joined us...

[asblackas]

Join you, and what? Back off? That is what was intended, wasn't it? After all, my ideas didn't seem to matter.

[He still remembers that very clearly.]

[collectedmemories]

That's not it at all! But your idea's were...they were twisted Pitch.

[As does she. All of them do.]

[fotlenke]

[ A little Vanir right behind you (how did she get there? oh well) holding out her arms. ]

Affection?

[asblackas]

[He'll turn and just... What. What.]

Why?

[fotlenke]

Each being deserves love no matter their crimes or follies.

[logic_and_magic]

[Have a neutral party on all of this, Pitch.]

In the end, I do not think any of us have much choice in what our writer's decide to do. As detestable as that sounds.

[asblackas]

[Oh, cool. A neutral party--like Jack was.]

So it would seem. You'd think they'd have something better to do.

[logic_and_magic]

Apparently not. Whatever their reasons are it never seems to be important.

[timespacemessiah]

Fear requires spirit. Once I've removed it from the world, you'll have no power, I'm afraid.

[thefirstguardian]

[Giving you the look, Pitch. Sandy doesn't like that kind of talk.]

[asblackas]

[Oh, a look. He's so scared.]

You can't remain on top forever. Eventually, the only way left to go... Is down.

[thefirstguardian]

[Is that right? Sandy points at Pitch, then makes a downward swirling motion with his finger.

Last time he saw you, he's pretty sure you were the one heading down.]

Also, Sandy was a close second to Pitch as my fave so this makes me ridiculously happy.

[asblackas]

[Oh, he remembers. He remembers quite well.]

Oh, yes, I'm the one who's down now. But a golden era can't last for eternity, no matter how hard you try to make it.

i was thiiiiis close to picking up Pitch before i chose Sandy. /loves on both of them

[thefirstguardian]

[Sandy's very old and very wise. Wise enough to know that what Pitch said before really is true. There will always be fear; there's no denying that.

Golden sand swirls above his head, forming a little sand-Jamie. The last believer. Pitch may rise again, but all it takes is one.]

Ahahaha, I was the opposite. Then I read all the backstory comics and Pitch made himself at home.

[asblackas]

[He is still really bitter about that kid, by the way. So don't mind the snarl.]

Don't worry, I haven't forgotten that little detail. I'll have to account for that next time.

Sandy just charmed me from the beginning. i have a weakness for his fluff and badassery.

[thefirstguardian]

[He crosses his arms over his chest, standing tall (as he can) and shaking his head a bit. The guardians won't let him. Sandy won't let him.

Mischief is one thing. Fear is an important part of life, but it can't be everything.]

Sandy was amazing. I about cried when he disappeared.

[asblackas]

[Oh, how cute. A tiny man is standing up to him.]

Oh, don't give me that look. Perhaps you've forgotten how good you all have it, taken a few things for granted. It'll get easier as things go on. A single slip-up and a lowered guard are all I need.

Oh why not

[trademark_skull]

[... What was that about fear?]

You probably won't find it appealing even if you tried.
