Might be headed for thewake

[powerinshades]

Mn. Well, my retirement was pleasant while it lasted, I suppose. And at least this time around you've taken initiative to make an actual journal for me. I imagine keeping my things archived in word documents was becoming rather bothersome.

I must say, however, that this concept does intrigue me. You happen to know that I'm an opportunist, and the power to literally warp reality to my will would certainly make things easier. And without Redfield or anyone else there to stop my plans... well.

If you should decide to go through with this, I think you know what happens next. From what I've seen of your little... game, so far, there are only a few factors I would need to take into account before everything would fall into place. I'm not where I am by luck, my dear.

Do hurry to make your decision. I'm quite willing and prepared, whatever you decide. But you must know that better than anyone.

- A. Wesker

P.S: I suppose you think you're clever with that username. Power in shades, indeed. Would you prefer to be patronized, or would you like to acknowledge your stupidity on your own terms?

[freelancing]

Christ. As if the world didn't have enough problems.

[powerinshades]

I couldn't agree more.

And what better way to rid the world of its imperfections, than the power to bend reality itself?

[freelancing]

And have some prick like you shape it into whatever he wants? Yeah, I'm gonna have to say 'no thanks'.

[powerinshades]

[Son come on why you gotta do this 8( ]

I'd almost forgotten how charming the audacity of youth could be, these days. The small-minded vision, however, I'm not so fond of. For your heritage, I really expected more from you.

[freelancing]

[ Maybe it's because you are a butt, dad. Sarcastically: ]

Yeah? Guess I'll try to work on the whole 'getting off to idea of genocide' thing.

[powerinshades]

[He was totes gonna be there for you but then volcanoes 8(]

I can't say I'm fond of that crassness, either. And while I admire your bravado, you might do well to ascertain all of the facts before you begin casting those little quips.

[big_badass_hero]

That seems like a bad idea. [Chris frowns, because this Wesker actually looks more like his Captain than the Wesker at the Games]

Though I think you willing and prepared for something sounds a lot worse than the power bending to your will. [He's still sure that Wesker slammed the door on his face at the mansion on purpose!]

[powerinshades]

I suppose I couldn't count on you for valuable input, Chris.

Oh, but I happen to think it all sounds wonderful. The possibilities are endless, that's literally the creed of this lovely little place. [Who, him? Never! B( ]

[big_badass_hero]

Did you ever?

[Well it couldn't have been Jill or Barry. Barry wouldn't have thought to close the door and Jill, well is Jill.] It sounds like a nightmare you can't wake up from waiting to happen... or a really boring day of paperwork.

[powerinshades]

Point taken. And that's not about to change in the near future.

A nightmare? If anything, this is the chance to steer not just our world, but many others into the proper direction.

[big_badass_hero]

Your direction? Yeah I've heard from some others at a further point than me what that entails. How about you just shove that idea up your.... [He gets censored by his mun because hey she likes Weskers]

[powerinshades]

Well, this is a pleasant surprise. I don't have to reiterate every last detail to you.

I suppose you know from past experience how well telling me to stop is going to work out, then.

[big_badass_hero]

Yeah but it's the principal of it. I tell you to stop you don't I kick your ass...

[Mun shakes her head because more like Wesker kicks Chris's ass and his partner saves the day.]

[powerinshades]

[He chuckles.]

Tell me, Chris, how well has that worked for you so far?

[big_badass_hero]

... [scowl scowl] Shut up it's a sound plan!

[powerinshades]

I'm sure you believe it is. But I think history has a rather telling pattern to it, don't you?

[big_badass_hero]

Hasn't happened yet. For me... the door just closed in front of me you Barry and Jill are in the house so yeah... And the Wesker in the game I'm in doesn't count with that creepy Chuluthu face of his.

[powerinshades]

Ah, you're quite a ways back in our timeline, then.

Here's a little secret, Chris: you somehow manage to underestimate me every time we're pitted against one another. It nearly costs you your life on several occasions, but luck makes you one rather tenacious pest. But then, perhaps relying solely on luck is what eventually brings Jill over to work by my side.

[Not without the aid of the P30 device, but Wesker is a huge troll and I'm sorry for him.]

[big_badass_hero]

... Everyone says that. [He's grumpy about being the Baby Chris... hell most of the Claires he's run across were older than him, really messes with a guy's head ya know.]

So I keep getting all this advice, maybe I won't fail where the other Chrises have. [He scowls with the bit about Jill, Sheva's warned him about that] Yeah, she wouldn't have worked with you unless you drugged her. Probably only way you can get a date Ca... Wesker.

[powerinshades]

[A low chuckle.] Really, because my ambitions will certainly take second priority to that sort of thing.

You'll have to excuse me if I won't bother feigning surprise when you eventually fall into all the same traps as your copies. You would think with how many of me there are to pass along the warning, failure wouldn't be an issue.

[nottalittlewolf]

Oh yeah cause this is just what Nautilus needs.

[Sorry Wesker, Mun already spilled the beans to this one about who you are.]

[powerinshades]

[A smile. Just a knowing, chilling smile.]

You may have very well taken the words out of my mouth. I imagine our ideas are very different, however.

[nottalittlewolf]

And here I thought someone as smart as you would have a better appreciation of Sarcasm.

Let's just say our points of view are so different that no amount of imagination could get them to reconcile.

[powerinshades]

Oh, I appreciate it just fine, when I deem it worthwhile enough to acknowledge it.

Perhaps with a little planning we could come to a compromise in the near future.

[nottalittlewolf]

Something tells me you don't find anything but yourself worth while.

And no, not gonna happen. [You're like all the jerkass humans from his world combined and dialed up to 5000. ]

[powerinshades]

I find plenty of other things worthwhile, but I'm not so certain I expect you or any of your... friends, to understand it.

[A chuckle.]

Careful. Let's not say things we don't mean so early in the game, Mr. Lovell.

[Yup, he knows who you are too, Nott. D8 Sorry he creeps things because he's a creep.]

[nottalittlewolf]

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want to understand it.

[Ugh creepy jerks why does his Mun keep throwing him at all the creepy jerks?]

I see your Mun is as much of a dirty tattle tail as mine.

[powerinshades]

I'm fairly sure it won't be a choice, if my dear mundane here cares to put my plans into action.

[Because creepy jerks are fun, Nott, come on. ;D]

You seem aware of my reputation, so really, can you blame her? She simply acknowledges that life is much easier for everyone involved when I get what I want.

[nottalittlewolf]

My Mun's tried rewiring my brain enough times to know it's not gonna be that easy for you to change my mind.

[....This is NOT Nott's idea of fun, and no that wasn't a double negative so don't even think of making that joke.]

You say that now, but I bet she's going to have a lot of fun watching you squirm if you do show up in Nautilus.

[powerinshades]

Then obviously she hasn't tried much in the way of an effective method. Pity.

[Pfft well tie my hands down while you're at it. >:[ ]

[He just... chuckles.] Oh, I don't doubt that there will be disadvantages in the beginning. But I'm quite used to adversity, you understand.

[quintuscursor]

[Woah. All that sounds like twenty different times of Not Good. And far worse than anything that scuzzball Van Ark could cook up.]

...No one should have that kind of power. Especially someone like you.

[powerinshades]

[He simply tilts his head at the newcomer, quirking an eyebrow.]

That's a rather quick condemnation, stranger.

[quintuscursor]

[Runner Five hunches her shoulders up near her ears and frowns slightly.]

...Apologies. But I've heard something like that before. It didn't end well. ...It rarely does, I find.

[powerinshades]

Oh? And just what resulted, in your past experience?

[quintuscursor]

[Dead team-mates and explosions.]

...Running from a mass of the living dead.

[powerinshades]

Ah, well.

I've quite enough experience in that department to avoid such a thing, I should think.

[coilsofthedragonserpent]

Finally. Now things just might get interesting.

[powerinshades]

[A dark chuckle.]

I aim to please. From what I've seen, you've done quite well at shaking things up a bit, as it were.

[coilsofthedragonserpent]

It is a city of change. I'm simply doing my part. Though it seems some others just don't appreciate it.

They all have the idea that change should always be good.

[powerinshades]

Even so, grand scale change for the better doesn't come without sacrifice.

Perhaps that's a lesson this city could afford to undergo, if this mundane here can so find the ambition.

[coilsofthedragonserpent]

Give your mundane time. I'm sure they have the ambition. After all, they have you in their head, don't they?

That's pretty ambitious as it is.

[powerinshades]

One would think, but mundanes are only human, after all. A rather flighty and weakminded sort, regardless of whoever they're hosting.

From there, if it isn't something as silly as insecurity, then it's something as equally silly as their precious morality.

[coilsofthedragonserpent]

But them being human also means they have that infamy to be selfish, greedy, and sadistic.

Take my mun for example. He revels in everything I do. It took time but eventually they come to love what we can do. Just give your mun a little time to adjust. I'm sure they'll come around with the proper plotting and persuasion.

[powerinshades]

[He flashes a chilling smile and then God killed a kitten.]

Ah, they can be easily manipulated, to be sure. But it has been a while since we've reunited, and I suppose it will take time to readjust her to my operations, as you've said.

I suppose I'm simply not a very patient man in some venues, and I will admit that she's baited me now with the prospect of this Bending, as it were.

[coilsofthedragonserpent]

Bending is a very tempting offer. Trust me. It's a very nice power to get in Nautilus. Though I do recommend thinking twice about letting your mun allow you to ascend to quickly. Being tied to the Master Unit Nautilus is a sort of double-edged sword.

[powerinshades]

Mn. I'll keep that advice in mind, although it would certainly go against everything I stand for as a scientist if I didn't try to... investigate.

[Whatever that may mean shall be left to interpretation.]

[coilsofthedragonserpent]

Just be careful with what you poke with your science stick. There is some shit humans shouldn't get mixed up in.

[powerinshades]

[His mouth tugs into a wry smile.]

How unfortunate my experiments will be for them.

[coilsofthedragonserpent]

How unfortunate indeed.
