Lonely down under in vatheon

[redboots]

Uh, yeah, that little subject line up there? As if. You should know I'm doing perfectly fine. This isn't the first time I've been on my own, you know. I'll be fine. Hey, maybe better, Simon fusses too much and it'll give the old guy a heart attack.

[Yeah you know the mun doesn't believe that, Marceline.]

Well, whatever. It's not even as if I'm completely alone, either. There's Leo to chat with, and Italy, and Gumball is always available for messing with.

[So you don't want any of your friends there?]

Hey, if Finn and Jake or Bubblegum or anyone else popped up, I'd be down with it. But let's be real- how likely is that to really happen?

Comments

[langsyne]

....Someone really named their kid after a country?

( the hell, man? )

[redboots]

Looks like.

I'm surprised you didn't ask about the Gum twins.

[Okay they are not really twins but they are alternate versions of one another and that is pretty much the same thing]

[langsyne]

( the better question is: )

Do I want to ask about the Gum twins?

[redboots]

Does this mean I'm your conscience now?

[goodnightsweetprince]

[ He completely resents that comment. However, he will be the bigger sentient candy being and ignore your rude and distasteful jab at him.

One.

Two.

Three.

Let the Ignoring of the Unkind Words Ceremony come to a close. ]

As it turns out, my schedule for messing is completely booked. I only have openings in Polite Conversation, Teatime and Tarts or Triangledancing.

[langsyne]

( a shrug! )

Only if you want. Not gonna lie to you though, pay's crap. You might have to live off ramen the rest of your life.

[allstretchedout]

[Well speak of the devil]

Iunno, I think I might be down for some ocean action.

Good luck gettin' Finn underwater, though.

[redboots]

Defiiiine the requirements for polite conversation.

[Her definition is different than yours.]

[redboots]

I don't eat ramen. Try 'anything red you ever own' instead.

[langsyne]

"Anything red." ( uh. ) Because it's your favorite color or something? Or you had too much grape-flavored cough syrup as a kid?

[goodnightsweetprince]

[ wtf he has to explain this to you, Marceline? Are you like, way old? This should be second nature. ]

The key is in this simple pneumonic device! RECOGNIZE. Respect, Etiquitte, Considerate, Observant, Gentle, Nice, Intelligent...Zippity-Eh!

It's so simple, I bet even you could get it down.

[redboots]

Jake, wassup!

[She was just talking about you smooshing people with your big stinky feet in her game, what a coincidence]

Hey, there's an island part too if he gets seasick. Buuut it's down in the underwater bubble party where all the cool stuff happens. Like me, for one thing, along with some stuff that miiight occasionally need a hero or something.

[redboots]

Well if you wanna come closer, I can tell you the reason why.

[redboots]

Well I am pretty considerate and unbelievably nice, and intelligent... But the rest of that all sounds boooooring!

[langsyne]

( .... )

No, no, that's really okay. You can tell me from over there. Practice your outside voice and everything.

[goodnightsweetprince]

[ Well all of that is debatable but if you CAN'T SAY NUTHIN' NICE...

Man, he even used bold font and everything for that OPPOSITE OF BORING acronym. ]

Then enlighten me with your definition of polite, non-boring conversation.

[redboots]

Lemme see...

[Where to start, where to start!]

Howling with wolves. Making agreements on someone to be my slave. Fart jokes.

Normal stuff.

[redboots]

[That just makes her laugh.]

Don't tell me you're scared of a teenage girl!

[langsyne]

No way. I'm just big on personal space and the non-sharing of germs.

( except that's a total lie because he is the invader of personal space )

[ruby_roses]

[Have a veritable all-you-can-eat buffet of red.]

Personally, I prefer to be alone. Less people to worry about getting in the way.

[redboots]

Wow, you're almost as boring as Gumball. C'mon, live a little.

[langsyne]

I live plenty. In fact, I live vicariously through the ten kids I'm currently babysitting and let me tell you, it's not an easy thing to do.

( actually, it's a madhouse. )

[redboots]

Wow, ten kids? Someone was ambitious, if you know what I mean.

[goodnightsweetprince]

[ Oh my GLOB what?

WHAAAATTTT??? ]

[goodnightsweetprince]

Oh wait.

I get it.

It's Opposite Day, isn't it?

So when you say Polite Conversation, you actually mean Non-Polite Conversation?
