voicetesting; canon is the Bartimaeus trilogy

[birthname]

This is absolutely out of the question. I need to get back to London. Who knows how bad things've gotten while I've been gone.

And no, the username is neither clever nor even vaguely amusing. Don't you dare tell anyone, or I swear I'll send a marid after you.

[Nathaniel? Who's Nathaniel? His name is John Mandrake, dammit.]

Comments

Bartimaeus muses are so few and far between ;__;

[The fact that you have sarcastic facial expressions only makes it worse. :|]

Pleased to see you and your kind haven't yet destroyed London? Yes.

I know right 8( I have a dream that there will be a billion more some day

[o_ace_one]

Me, destroy London? [He crosses his arms in a huff.] Considering the number of times I've saved it?1 That's harsh!

1. Practically by myself too.

sigh. Perhaps if ever a movie comes out. We can always hope. :3

[birthname]

You are a demon.

[This Nat has obviously not made it past the third book yet.]

oh god I would so love to have a movie, fingers crossed!

[o_ace_one]

[Pout :T]

Still got some growing up to do, I see. When are we ever going to get past all this silly 'demon' business, honestly.

and fingers crossed that they won't ruin it, either

[birthname]

[Pouting doesn't suit you, Bartimaeus.]

How did you get in here, anyway?

I don't think I could handle the disappointment if they did :c

[o_ace_one]

Well... that's actually a good question. I've not exactly been summoned and I don't have any specific charges so it seems that technically I'm entirely free to do as I wish. [He blinks. Somehow he'd completely missed this fact.1]

Now that makes a change!

1. In fairness, I've been so used to constant slavery that it's not as if I'd expect anything different.

it would be the most awful. D: also. those footnotes. xD

[birthname]

[He turns slightly green.]

That's what I'm worried about!

the footnotesa re the best part :3 also sorry for a late reply, uni got busy

[o_ace_one]

[Bart, being the sharp-eyed sort of djinni he is, doesn't fail to notice this1 and a smirk appears on his face as he takes a step closer.]

Aw, come on, it's as if you don't trust me! I take offence at that, you know.

1. I like to think I have a good eye for spotting discomfort in magicians.

no worries <3 it keeps Nat on his toes

[birthname]

[Backing up with a (distinctly not!) worried look.]

I don't trust you. That's the point.

<3 he totally needs it

[o_ace_one]

[Just gonna continue siiiiidling up beside you Nat, nothing to worry about.]

I don't see why not. I mean, after all, there's no pentacle here or anything. If I really wanted to devour you, well, I'd have done it already. Gulped you down. Although that said, you wouldn't exactly be the most nutritious thing I've ever eaten. Much too scrawny.

[birthname]

[He stops backing away to sputter.]

I am not scrawny!

[o_ace_one]

Oh yes, you are! Look at you! There'd be more meat on a stick insect, I reckon.

[birthname]

[Attempting to cover up his ruffled feathers with a loud exasperated sigh is a go!]

And now you've devolved into petty insults.
