help what am I doing

[sunlord]

[Roshaun is looking particularly haughty and perhaps a little aggrieved.]

You can't possibly think that you're any more prepared to play me than you are qualified to do so - a few sentences of canon review and a few sketches does not a study make. If you're willing to try doing this properly then you may try again then - in the mean time stop before you embarrass both of us.

[Wait, hold the phone. She knows that obnoxious voice. After living so long without wizards of her own kind, Dairine is almost relieved to hear it.]

Well, looks like King Know-it-all is new to this. Embarrassment is the standard muns' M.O.

[sunlord]

[Puh-leeze of COURSE she's relieved to hear it. This is, after all, him. He looks annoyed.]

Perhaps of others - though logically you would think that even they would balk at treating a King so - but I doubt even your people enjoy embarrassing themselves. Which would be the result, as well all would know who's responsible.

[wizard_redfive]

[Hush, we don't talk about THAT.]

Kinglyness doesn't make a difference; I've seen plenty of royality suffer great indignities since I've been dragged her.

[Arching an eyebrow at the "your people" comment. Really, Roshaun?] Are you comparing me with the muns?

[sunlord]

Hmph.

Unless you've since changed your species, you are both human.

[wizard_redfive]

I disagree. Clearly my mun is a pod person.

[HEY!]

How would someone even change their species? And why would you want to?

[sunlord]

I suppose that might explain wanting to play you.

[Didn't you miss him, Darine? HE'S SO MISSABLE. An elegant shrug.]

I'm sure it's possible, if only theoretically. And who could fathom the mind of one who took such actions?

[wizard_redfive]

Hey! What's wrong with playing me?!

I suppose if it were for survival... but I doubt that would often show up as a needed measure.

[sunlord]

[He just gives her a sweeping, somewhat judging look and raises an eyebrow.]

Perhaps that might be true anywhere but the circles we currently find ourselves in.

[He hasn't been a muse long but he's heard the stories]

[wizard_redfive]

You mean the non-humanoid circles?

[Yeah, she's heard the stories too, assuming they're the same ones.]

[sunlord]

[She gets a mildly dirty look.]

No, I mean roleplay. Would you put it past them?

[wizard_redfive]

I was talking about roleplay, you dimwit. In case you hadn't noticed, nonhumanoid characters have to deal with that kind of thing a lot more frequently.

[She shoots a sour look back.]

And no, I wouldn't. But that's hardly the worst they can do.

[sunlord]

I take it you haven't heard of games like mylittlejamjar. Apparently the residents are no longer themselves even in some places they seem to be, like towerofanimus. And it may not be the worst thing that can happen, but it would certainly be disquieting.

[wizard_redfive]

[Dairine's face heats up and turns red. She hated how easily he could point out areas where she lacked knowledge or understanding. It threw her off her game.]

My mum doesn't branch out too much. Where I am, those kinds of changes are temporary, usually only lasting a week.

[sunlord]

[Throwing her off his game is almost what he's here for at this point.]

I suppose you should count yourself fortunate. My own, at least, has no concrete plans as yet.

[wizard_redfive]

Excuse you, how does that make me fortunate? I have to deal with a bajillion "plans" from my mun and whatever Powers that Be run that stinking castle. At least you can breath easy for the moment without worrying that the world will fall to pieces or your close friends'll disappear any minute!

[inlifesname]

Oh, I dunno. Seems like she's got you down pretty well to me. [Hey Roshaun, hey!]

[sunlord]

[He's a little taken aback and is trying to decide if he should be offended.]

With so little study, and yet less thought, into the rich culture and history of a planet which is not even hers....

[inlifesname]

Give her a little slack, Roshaun. Maybe she'll surprise you.

[sunlord]

When she has proved herself I might consider it.

[inlifesname]

At least you're out and around, right?
