Being sent to CnC, not sure how feel.

[prejudices]

I am uncertain you have put a proper amount of thought into your decision, Miss Mundane. I would urge you to reconsider, had I any confidence in your empathy. I suppose you fully intend on having me suffer for your amusement.

That was not a question. It is not necessary for you to answer 'yes'. I merely ask that you pay me proper respect and decide not to begrudge me my dignity in your childish games.

I've no idea what a superhero is.

It's an utterly ridiculous title..

I do not think hypnosis is a power befitted to me, for that matter. I have absolutely no desire to compel my adversaries into a swoon.

You should probably just kiss your dignity goodbye right now and give it a nice human corpse party while you still have the chance. You're never going to see it again.

[prejudices]

Absolutely not. [He's nothing without his dignity. Nothing!] Corpse party? I've never heard of such a macabre preoccupation.

[crab]

Hey, your culture is the one that came up with them, not mine. Don't get all judgey with me, I'm just trying to be sensitive towards your rapidly approaching mortification-wrought doom. I don't even know what a corpse party entails.

[prejudices]

I've certainly had no part in one, so I'll make my judgments as I see fit. [Not even sharing a headspace with Dualscar is enough to prepare him for this.]

You needn't trouble yourself, I've no desire for pity.

[allbloodyhail]

What the little troll thing said.

[prejudices]

Is that what they're known as? Trolls? A fittingly ghastly name, I suppose.

I fail to see why I am expected to sacrifice my dignity for the sake of amusement.

[allbloodyhail]

I don't really pay attention to them; it's all about bright font and going on about how they don't understand the human condition. Bunch of ponces if you ask me.

--Because that's what we're here for, yeah? Their entertainment. Slap some eyeliner on us and call us Adam Lambert; might as well do.

[prejudices]

That's one word for it. [He's not going to openly insult them, but he's not going to disagree.]

Perhaps it's what you're here for, but it's certainly not what I'm here for. [Quirking an eyebrow.] I've not heard of him before.

[allbloodyhail]

Really? He's real popular around these parts. [Spike waves a hand you look like you're from his era so that might explain a few things.] Meant we don't have much choice in the matter, didn't I, mate. We're just along for the ride.

[prejudices]

Not in my circles. [His circle of one.]

A grim fate indeed. You seem suitably resigned to it.

[allbloodyhail]

You might say this isn't my first time around the alternate reality circuit. Mostly cause it isn't.

[shippingit]

Hm...well, you definitely sound like William.

[prejudices]

Fitzwilliam. Have we met?

[shippingit]

Right. Fitzwilliam. Weird

Oh, but not technically.

According to my mun, our story is based on your story, so in a messed up way, maybe?

[prejudices]

What, precisely, is weird about it? [Guuuuurl you callin' his fancy ass name weird? Someone hold his hat, it's about to go down.]

..Of course. And of what relation are you to my similarly named counterpart?

[shippingit]

William's best friend is Fitz. So that's the weird part. [Plus it is pretty fancy ass.]

His sister. I'm Georgiana, though most people call me Gigi.

[prejudices]

Then I cannot fault you, that does fall under the exemplification of weird.

[Huh. Well now it's hard to hate her, even if she isn't his Georgiana, it feels improper to be so taciturn to an iteration of his sister.]

In that case, it is a pleasure to meet you Miss Georgiana. Please forgive my temper, I am considerably out of sorts.

[shippingit]

[She snorts slightly, which falls into a cute little laugh.]

No need to apologize. I'm used to...tempers.

...

Actually, on second thought, apologies are always welcomed.

[prejudices]

I cannot say I'm surprised. Dealing with ill tempered gentlemen alaways seemed to be a constant displeasure in your life. [Her life? Why is this so confusing.]

Then I shan't retract it.

[shippingit]

[Her brow arches. Are we really going there of all places?]

I don't think I'd describe it as constant.

[prejudices]

[But of course!]

Then you have it better than the Georgiana I know. [And now the burning question.] This.. iteration of myself. What is their temperament?

[shippingit]

I think that's probably something you should discuss with her.

William? Oh, let's see. He's socially awkward, stubborn, over protective, a bit of a know-it-all...

[She pauses and smirks.]

But above all, fiercely loyal and kind. [And the smirk is a genuine smile now. She wouldn't change a single thing about her brother. Well, maybe a bit with the over protectiveness.]

[prejudices]

I would gladly take it up with her, should I ever see her. [He has his doubts.]

Then I cannot deny our similarities, sparing as they may be. [A wry smile.]

[shippingit]

Oh yes. Very sparing, I'm sure. [Except not.]

It's nice to meet you. Strange, but nice.

sob i am so sorry for this tag

[egohalfempty]

[ Codex's already turning red before she even starts talking. Oh, geez. ]

I- I don't know, I think hypnosis could be pretty useful... a- and surely you've some girls swoon! Somewhere. Theoretically.

[ Like maybe this loser. And millions of others who grew up reading Pride & Prejudice.

Oooh, Mr. Darcy. ]

never be sorry!

[prejudices]

[At the very least, Darcy is more than used to this sort of reaction to his personage.]

Useful or not, I've no desire for it.

Perhaps, but I would neither consider it an achievement nor an effective means of self defense. It's a shameful sort of behaviour on both counts.

[egohalfempty]

Oh, trust me, there are so many worse things than a swoon.

[ The awkward giggle of someone who REALLY doesn't want to elaborate. ]

A- anyway, as far as powers go, it wouldn't be that bad! A little sneaky, sure, but you'd only use your powers for good! Right...?

[prejudices]

I don't care to know them. [That's said a little curtly, like the grump he is.]

I have no intention of using them at all. I have no desire to be a hero, whether it's my calling or not.

[gotmyending]

The hell kinda superhero are you? Too Fucking Fancy Man?

[prejudices]

I beg your pardon, what reason have you to be so ill mannered?

[And he's appropriately fancy man, okay? Gosh.]

[idontdoyay]

I don't think they really think these things through, not that I mind impulsiveness... you know, sometimes.

Hypnosis could totally come in handy, though.

[prejudices]

It certainly seems that way.

Potentially, but I've no interest in an altered state of mind.

[idontdoyay]

Not you with an altered state of mind, they with an altered... yeah. Give it a shot you just might like it. And hey my crazy nutso lady gave me voodoo powers so we could team up or something.

[prejudices]

There's no concise way of putting it. [He adds, so helpfully.]

I'm not entirely sure what voodoo entails, but I intend to reserve my alliances until I am better accustomed to the situation.

[idontdoyay]

That's probably a smart choice. As for me, I think I might just link up with the first weirdo in an ascot I see.

[desertdaggers]

That sounds as though it would be fairly useful, though. Does it work on non-humans, too?

[prejudices]

I wouldn't know, I can't say I've ever tried it.

[desertdaggers]

Have you had the opportunity, before this?
