Voice testing + app acceptance at mylittlejamjar

So Mun I know this was supposed to be some sorta voice testing ground but can I say something first?

What are you thinking?!

Our first "adventure" is gonna be to a land full of tye dye horses?! You've gotta be kidding me! If you're gonna send me to some place shouldn't it be to a land where my speed will do some good? Is there even crime in talking tye dye horse land?

_{[He groans. Mun explains that there isn't much crime but there are occasional villains there who threaten the peace and the power of friendship. Wally's mouth goes slightly ajar.]}

Mun. Tell me you're joking.

Don't worry, Grandpa Wally. The ponies are nice. I've seen them around here and other than a few times someone tries to take over their world it sounds really nice.

_{[He gives her a smile. Being called "grandpa" is not something he's used to but it's not hard to recognize a fellow West.]}

I'll say hi to them for you. I guess it wouldn't hurt to check in there and make sure there's no evil afoot. Can't let an evil pony take over the world.

They also fought off the god of chaos once. But I know you can handle him. You're the fastest man - and pony! - alive.

God of chaos? Wow. Sounds like a real troublemaker. Thanks for the heads up Macy.

_{[He grins.]}

You take care of yourself now. And maybe try... writing me a letter. I'd really like that.

Don't worry. I'm sure you'll be fine, Grandpa Wally.

I will! If, um, we can do that in this place... I'll try. It's really nice to see you here. I missed you.

Send me a message whenever you like Macy.

_{_{[[ooc: No seriously, if you need an RP partner just let me know.]]}}

If my mun let my Dad out, would you talk to him too? He misses you, I think, even if he's too old to say it. [Oh, you grown ups and your 'maturity'. Ick.]

[[OOC: That would be amazing. I am so bereft of RP partners.]]

Of course I'll talk to your Dad. We're family.

_{_{[[ooc: Just let me know whenever you want to RP. You'll have to tell me what your other muses are. This Wally account is set up for Young Justice, but I can RP as other versions of him too. I'm familiar with certain versions more than others, but I'll do my best. Plus, Wally is Wally most of the time any way.]]}}

Good. He's been kinda bored in our mun's headspace.

[[OOC: Sweet. I have other muses but most relevant to Wally's interest in agent_west, his son/Macy's father. And you don't have to be familiar with Agent West's canon, just be Wally. And let the magic that is Papa!Wally ensue.]]

...you're going to the My Little Pony universe.

There is not enough therapy in the world for this, Dad. Not even close.

Wait. You know about this universe?

_{[Cue amusement and poorly hidden snickers.]}

I have a little girl. It's not optional, I have to know these things. Brace yourself; when you have kids your days of PG rated TV are over for a while.

You have to admit it's really funny that you're the one telling me this.

Ever get stuck watching an episode or two of it? I could use some additional insight from an older party about what I'm up against.

Yeah, I know. It's like the inverse my normal routine.

Not since Macy got taken away by Child Services, but she used to record 'em on her mom's DVR and wait up for me to come back from missions to watch it. It's pretty hard to say no to that. And not only do I do that to you in the future, the twins are eleven years younger than me, so you get to do this twice.

Wow. I get to do double time huh? Family movies here I come!

I'd expect parenthood to be a roller coaster- hard for me to really visualize at this point though.

Maybe the pony world isn't so bad if the show provided some nice father-daughter bonding time.

Well, Mom decides she wants more than one kid and you just... kind of bend to her will. The twins are great, honestly, but they're both getting the whole superpower thing. Brace yourself. They're going to humble you. And me. Not Mom, though. She takes it all in stride.

You do pretty good at the parenthood thing. Except for - well, there's hiccups along the way, but I'm over most of it now.

Those were good times. There's nothing like coming home to something as normal and mundane as ponies, your kid and a soft couch after a long trip.

_{[Somehow he's not surprised that he ends up bending to the will of his wife. Other vague mentions of hiccups make him wonder but these sort of spoilers are to be avoided.]}

Soft couches are the best. Favorite napping place.

If these ponies make up a relaxing kids show, it sounds like a vacation spot compared to the other settings of comms I've been hearing about. Guess my Mun doesn't feel like torturing me- well maybe she does a little with rainbows and fairy dust.

The twins are born with superpowers?

Well, there's surprising darkness in the pony show. Changlings that shapeshift and imitate your friends, the god of chaos, bad musical numbers... and worse, really catchy musical numbers.

[Through clenched teeth. Oy, Wally, you just hit a nerve.] Yeah. Your precious twins have superpowers and I don't. It's great.

Maybe the ponies will need a guest starring superhero after all.

_{[Wally is confused by the idea the twins are born with superpowers rather than having to gain them by other means. But then would this sort of thing introduce too many spoilers for his future?]}

You never did the old... "Family experiment?"

Nobody had to after you. The twins have powers, my niece does... it's just part of the genetic make up now. For them. And you love them a lot. But me? Nothing can give me powers.

_{[It all became biological? That was really interesting. Didn't sound like someone was very happy about his lack of superpowers though.]}

No powers? Doesn't mean you aren't still "super."

...I'm not sure I can believe that you mean it when you say that.

[And here comes all the family issues.]

_{[Wally blinks a few times in confusion.]}

Wait... What?

_{[And here comes past Wally's confusion on the subject.]}

You just... have your favorites, out of your kids and grandkids. And it's pretty obvious.

I'm getting over it, really. It's not a big deal. But it's hard to deal with some days.

_{[Wally's having trouble believing what he's been told.]}

That's... What?! But I don't think that's right! Why would I do that?!

I mean... Maybe if they're younger and have superpowers they require extra attention but I wouldn't love someone more because they have superpowers.

I don't know, Dad. I just know which kids you really care about and which ones of us that have to fight to get noticed.

Though you were there for me when I nearly got killed in Jakarta. You were the tenth face I saw after I got out of the coma.

Tenth face?

_{[He shakes his head.]}

Well now I want to have a word with this other me. Doesn't sound like I became the kind of father I would want to be!

Well, my NSA team in Jakarta was six people including me, plus the twins showed up, Macy and her mom were there, and then you came a few days later. Mom came with you.

Look, you were there. I - I don't know if I'm mad at you or not, but you didn't just shrug it off, Dad. You care. It's just gotten complicated with the superhero stuff on your end.

Complicated huh?

Still... I wouldn't want any of my kids to question how much I love them. I don't know if it means any thing for me to say it but... I'm sorry.

It's only questionable lately. Things are hard. Everyone's running on empty. Crime's at an all time high. You and I haven't had a chance to really talk in a long time.

I'm sorry, too. For taking this out on you when you haven't even gotten married yet.

No it-it's okay, really. You needed to talk to someone. I just hope that you and him get a chance to talk about this soon. If he's any thing like me still, he'll take this seriously and try to make it right.

I haven't seen my time's you here. But... if I do, we'll definitely talk. Because when I was in Jakarta, I would have given my ran and badge just to hear he was proud of me for taking down a terrorist organization, instead of being left alone in that bed for so long.

But Agent Bennett - my recruiter, my superior Agent, he's been with me for years - he was the first one by my side. And he told me that even if you didn't say it, you were proud. I'd like to believe that's true.

Well I think Agent Bennett is right. That is something to be proud of.

Bet it's a little weird coming from a young version of your dad, but I think that's really cool. You might not have superpowers but that's undeniably heroic. I'd be happy to have a kid that brave.

We lost some good Agents in Jakarta. It wasn't a flawless victory. But... thanks. You don't know what that means to me. When I swore to protect my country I meant it, and I try and uphold it, I really do. Even without powers.
