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.]

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?

Hehehe :3

[catmaskmerchant]

[Awe, did he confuse you Steve? That happens a lot, though mostly whenever he talks to the Elsens. He looks down at the offered hand before reaching forward to accept and shake it.]

Of course, where are my manners. I often forget that I'm not speaking to an inanimate background character. I'm Zacharie, the traditional items merchant that's necessary in every video game.

<3 I haven't LJ/IJ/DW roleplayed in well over a year. Probably two.

[frozenpromises]

[ Still confused, but that seemed to be his life anymore. He'd deal. ]

Zacharie, nice to meet you.

... Wait, you said "video game?" What is that? [ Because his mun mentioned "video games!" He was onto something, here. Detective Rogers to the rescue! Nevermind that he's not much of a detective and tends to destroy things. ]

Oh wow, that's a long time! Welcome back /o/

[catmaskmerchant]

Oh, am I to understand that you have never played a video game before?

Yeah, silly school. <3 Thanks. You're so nice.

[frozenpromises]

I've played board games and card games, but never video games. I really like checkers.

[ He is SO out of touch with the 2010s. ]

Awe, no problem :3

[catmaskmerchant]

Well, I suppose that goes without saying for a man who was active during World War 2. A video game is much like a regular game, only instead of playing on a board, you play on a computer. Think of it like watching a movie, but you are able to control the protagonist instead of merely watch his actions

<3

[frozenpromises]

[ Hold on... ]

I think I get it. But... how did you know when I was active? [ He was just dressed normally, right? People didn't recognize him in his usual flannel shirt and bomber jacket. ]

hurr hurr this teaches me to reply from my phone whoops

[catmaskmerchant]

Why, of course I would know who you are! I wouldn't be a very good background character if I didn't know the details of the protagonists I interact with.

good job. :|b And here I am forgetting my icons.

[frozenpromises]

[ See Steve. See Steve think. See Steve's brain break. But he knows how to play along. ]

Right. So you already knew who I was, then.

Awe it's k

[catmaskmerchant]

[Zacharie chuckles at Steve's confusion.]

Yes, I did.

[frozenpromises]

[ Maybe he'd recognized him from the television without his cowl. ]

I have to say, you're a bit of an odd fellow.

[catmaskmerchant]

Why thank you.

[Another chuckle.]

Well, enough of this blether. I take it your mun has already made plans to send you elsewhere?

[frozenpromises]

No. She said she's doing a "voice test."

[catmaskmerchant]

Ah, I see. She is not confident in her portrayal of your characterization, then.

[frozenpromises]

[ More lingo thrown his way. He's still getting used to the idea that he's just an idea in someone's head. he's just not a fourth-wall breaker so be gentle it's his first time. ]

Yeah. That's what she's telling me.
