On Recent Spoilers and Considering a Game + Voicetest

[nohsatsu]

I know you're looking forward to going back to that giant turtle, but can you at least be patient enough until I'm in a happy place?

As much as I regret some of my past actions, that's all they are - part of the past, gone. I'm grateful you didn't bring me there just after my banishment from both Hala and Earth, all those months ago.

I wouldn't have had a chance to find such good music if you did. Or such a beautiful woman.

Hopin' for some redemption in the near future?

[nohsatsu]

Understanding, perhaps. But I did what I did because I thought it was best.

[highsocietygirl]

"A happy place?" That's really what you're going with?

[nohsatsu]

Would it have been better if I said, "state of mind dependent upon having escaped death and fire?"

My mun thought it would be interesting to see if I would suffer.

[highsocietygirl]

Hey, whatever you want to call it. But, for the record, the wordier it is, the more pathetic it sounds.

Of course she did. They're all like that.

[nohsatsu]

Which is why I said "happy place," Kate Bishop.

Luckily, circumstances prevented that and now he will have to wait until he's sure of where I am and what I am doing. Watching his anticipation is amusing.

[highsocietygirl]

Yeah, but that skipped pathetic and went right to lame. I hate to be the bearer of such harsh news, but it is what it is.

Well, that makes you, me, and all of us. At least he's not trying to guess from just the beginnings of a story.

[nohsatsu]

Lame... And that's bad. [ So much for dictionary definitions for him. ]

By the looks of things, though, you and I will have quite a challenge on our hands.

[highsocietygirl]

Yes, Mr. Space Alien, that's bad.

I'm thinking you're right about that. But then, it wouldn't be worth it if it wasn't a challenge, right?

[nohsatsu]

Then I guess I'll have to avoid "lame" from now on.

I think you're right on that one. I just hope my records survive that attack.

[highsocietygirl]

Yes. The records. That's exactly the thing on that ship that you should be most concerned about when Skrulls attack.

[nohsatsu]

A ship is meant for combat. Records are delicate, aren't they? It'd be a sad thing to lose a source of beautiful music.

[highsocietygirl]

...you know, this whole artsy-music-as-metaphysical-thing you've got going, here? It could get to be a problem.

[nohsatsu]

I won't endanger us over the records. I would just be sore to lose them.

You don't enjoy that style of music?

[highsocietygirl]

That's not exactly what I was getting at--you know what? Never mind.

And I can appreciate most things. Though I haven't really gone through my "listening to what was cool when my parents were young" phase, yet.

[nohsatsu]

...

So it's not enjoyable because your parents listened to it? Odd judgment.

[tattling]

[ he's been watching unobserved - but taking notes - in the mun's head for too damn long ]

You're an alien?!

[nohsatsu]

Yes. More specifically a genetically-altered Kree.

[ He's nothing if not blunt. ]
