Voice testing, kinda.

Dear Ma'am:

I'm sorry, I'm not sure what to call you. "Mun?"

I'd just like to thank you for making me. It's an honor. Don't think so badly of yourself, though. I know you've been through some hard times here, and you do a good job with me. Not every soldier stands on the front lines.

A lot of the people in your head are pretty welcoming, and I appreciate that, even if I'm your first... "real person?" I'm not quite sure what "anime" or "video games" are, but the others who're from them seem pretty nice.

I miss a lot of things, but I can hope you've got something in store for me.

Sincerely,

Steve Rogers

P.S.: Please don't put me in those places that say "eighteen plus" on them. I'm not really interested. Thanks.

[OOC note: Might also reply with patrioticfire. This journal is for Steve, and the other is for Captain America.]

Just a quick warning, this guy's natural talent is shattering fourth walls

[catmaskmerchant]

I'm sure your Mun is very happy to have a new puppet to play with.

All the better!

[frozenpromises]

Puppet?

And yeah, though I'm not exactly new. Just new to... this place. Whatever it is.

[ And no, he's totally not creeped out by that mask. Nope. But he'll play it cool. ]

Awesome :3

[catmaskmerchant]

Why, of course! After all, we're all just characters being played for our mun's enjoyment, so wouldn't it be a fair assumption to liken us to a puppeteer and their dolls?

Well, in a literal sense, this is a website for players to come and try out their new characters. But all you need to know is that this place is a common plaza for individuals like ourselves to gather and mingle.

[frozenpromises]

3/3 - I missed multi-icon posting.

[frozenpromises]

... Right. Got it.

[ Though he totally didn't. ]

I'll get used to it. By the way... [ He holds out his hand to shake. ] Steve Rogers. And you are?

[scarver]

You don't know what video games are?

[frozenpromises]

No, Ma'am.

[scarver]

Not any kind of video games? Not even Pac-Man?

[frozenpromises]

They didn't exist where I'm from. I did just have it explained to me by a new friend there. I think I get it.

[odinsons]

[ hey buddy 8D ]

It has come to stand that they always have something in store whether it is welcomed or not. I wish you luck, my friend.

[frozenpromises]

[ OH GOD the only real one IT'S YOU. ]

[ Nods once. ] I can only hope for the best. It's nice to see you again.

[odinsons]

[ yesss. it is he. him. thor. whatever. ]

Indeed. That is all one can do. [ because lbr. they can hope for whatever they want but they'll get thrown into whatever we say so 8| ANYWAY. there's a slight pause and he smiles. ] Know that it is returned. All things considered, it is nice to meet in... less stressful circumstances.

[diamondsarentforever]

"Anime" is a meaningless term used for animated film and television from Japan. It is where I am from.

[frozenpromises]

Oh. Well, that explains a thing or two. [ He's still having a difficult time adjusting to the present, so have a suspicious look. ] Thank you, Ma'am. [ Or he hopes that's a "ma'am." ]

[diamondsarentforever]

You're welcome.

My name is Noa. Tell me, what period of time do you hail from?

[fourstarbadass]

Anime is quickly becoming an obsolete term, but it refers to animation from Japan. Video games I still don't understand. In my time we barely have sound to go with some movies; a lot of what the muns discuss go over people's heads, sir. Just try not to jump to conclusions and you should be fine.

[Despite the medals on his coat and the fact he's a General, Iroh bows politely to the blonde man.] It's an honor to meet you, sir. My mun thinks very highly of you.

[frozenpromises]

Right. I think I've got the gist of it from everyone's explanations. Thanks.

[ He noticed the medals and the fancy-looking coat that looked straight out of Napoleon's time, but hey right away and saluted in return respectfully. ] Thank you, sir.

[fourstarbadass]

[Iroh nods briefly at the salute. Both bowing and salutes are used in his world's military; he's grown accustomed to one gesture being exchanged for another.]

My name is General Iroh. Has your mun given any thought to what game they'll be placing you in?

[omits]

An honour to be caged. [ Spreading his palms, he affects a harmless critique moments after the wry drawl is issued Steve's way. Although lbr, he's not exactly here to compliment that lovely letter. ] Such as it is for one so suited to merely following orders, surely.

Yay, I get to use frowny icon! Keep going and you might get Cap, too. Haha!

[frozenpromises]

[ That just blackened Steve's mood. The attack on NYC is still fresh on his mind, and he's none-too-pleased to see Loki running around freely. Though really, he should've expected this. ]

What are you doing here, Loki? You should be back on Thor's world. I think you've done enough damage, here.

jsyk, you have compliments on your cap from my friends :3

[omits]

[ He didn't expect to come here and be this entertained, but no one looks a gift Sleipnir in the mouth. ]

I should, shouldn't I. How terribly galling for you, to find the one prisoner of any import that you have been charged with handling has slipped through your fingers yet again. You tried, though, don't feel too badly.

/late, but Steve is just so Steve here I couldn't resist. <3

[call_me_saul]

I wouldn't thank her just yet, sir. What we're interested in and where we're sent are usually pretty different things, for start.

[If Saul seems to flicker in the light, that's not on purpose. But there should be something off about him.]

Of course, because you want to brainbreak the poor guy.

[frozenpromises]

[ Oh yeah. There's a big thing off with him. Let's start with the face. The flickering we'll get to in a second. ]

... Okay, what's going on here?

But no one rolls with a brain break like Steve. He's great like that.

[call_me_saul]

It's complicated. I'll try to explain, but I admit I'm not sure how to without lapsing into technobabble. How much do you know about holograms?

[This isn't how he pictured meeting his... basis? Father-esque figure? But he'll take it step by step.]
