No, I meant literally. You woke up here, yes? We all did. It's like some bizarre social experiment via the afterlife. Why, they're even Gods here!
I do wish you luck in trying to return to your home. I've yet to find out if there is a way. Not that it matters for me.
Hmm~ You could always put out a call for Duelists. See who's all out there.
no subject
Right, because you're dead. [No sugar coating here]
Guess that's better than standing around and waiting for them to just show up.
no subject
Pokémon Gods. Isn't that charming? And you are correct. It didn't matter before then either though.
You never know. More still may trickle in to this bizarre world. Perhaps ones you personally know.
no subject
This really is like some adjacent world to Duel Monsters. What kind of a lame human-cyborg were you if you had absolutely nothing going on when you were alive?
With my luck, it would probably be the ones I least want to see.
[Like Chumley]
no subject
Oh, I had plenty going on. Trust me. I just believe that in the end we all return to the earth. It's our legacies that we pass on that shape the future generations though, if we happen to be so "lucky."
I served my "purpose." Now it's on to the supposed next life.
Good luck. I won't be surprised if that's the case so enjoy your "independence" while you have it.
[No one should have to deal with Chumley. Terrifying man.]
no subject
[best logic is no logic at all]
I bet you were the life of every party you ever attended. [Meaning: Yikes, that's dark] Trust me, I fully intend to build a legacy of my own.. but I want to be around long enough to enjoy it.
What was your purpose anyway?
Oh I will. At least there won't be any homework, or dormmates trying to steal my space or my food.
[Agreed. Least he goes to work for Pegasus and disappears forever]
no subject
I was, actually. I'm quite happy in my life. Was happy? Hmm. People look to me for advice and wisdom, knowing I'll give the best neutral answer possible. That, along with passing on my memes, was my life's purpose.
There are other trainers who may try to do those things. Do be careful. I am pleased to hear you'll be making a name for yourself though.
[Pegasus doesn't deserve that either, man.]
no subject
I'm finding that hard to believe. [Then again maybe death changes a person. It shouldn't... since it's DEATH, and a person shouldn't be able to react to their own demise... but maybe.] So if I asked you for advice right now, would you give me your legit opinion on it so I could see what a vast wealth of knowledge you are? [There's definitely sarcasm in there.]
Not here, nimrod! At home! [As for his whole legacy thing, but that was likely to change when he accepted he couldn't leave. Chazz wouldn't want to be a nobody trainer anymore than he wanted to be a nobody duelist]
[Too true. Should have let Chumley go home to work in the "hot sauce" industry with his dad]
no subject
And yes, go right ahead and ask.
[Try as you might, Chazz, not much dissuades him.]
Here, home. They say home is where the heart is, right?
Why not use this as a practice run?
[Yes, that sounds a better fate for everyone.]
no subject
[Stop calling him out when he's frustrated with his situation and taking it out on you.]
Alright, so try this one hot shot. Say you have a pile of wrapped sandwiches all collected in a bin. None of them are labeled. What's the best way to draw out the one sandwich you actually want to eat?
[What the heck kind of question is this and why would people need advice on this?]
Now you're starting to sound like a fortune cookie.
[Except Chumley, but who cares. The Hot Sauce will mellow him in time.]
no subject
[That is how the Monsoon doooo. /zefrank1]
An interesting conundrum. That all depends on how the sandwiches were wrapped. Is it see through plastic or paper? If it's see through, you could simply see which has the ingredients you prefer. Either one you should be able to at least smell what is on the sandwich.
If that's somehow not the case then you'll just need to go in blind and hope for the best.
[Common sense but. You know. He did ask for his advice.]
You're not the first person to say that.
[Everyone wins. XD]
no subject
[Look, part of that was his bad. He neglected to include all the information]
Going in blind is what everyone does already.. I should have included all the details. Let's try something else.
[Chazz has found a new game to occupy his time..]
Say there was this guy crushing on a girl that wouldn't even give him the time of day. They talk sometimes, sure, but she's always abrasive towards him, or rolling her eyes. So.. she's definitely flirting with him. [
wut.] So how can this guy convince her that they're ready to go to the next level and start officially dating?I won't be the last either.
[T-R-U-T-H]
no subject
However, unless there's an option you specifically don't want or you're an incredibly picky eater then any sandwich should do, really. It's just a sandwich, after all.
[Armstrong is probably looking at Monsoon and shaking his head from his spot next to him while the man's grinning to himself and chuckling from time to time.]
Hmm. Is that flirting? I assumed women let you know when they were interested in you even when they're playing hard to get.
If you are certain though, have you spoken to her about how you feel rather than simply dropping hints?
no subject
Just a sandwich? It's more than "just a sandwich". The whole school is all trying to find one specific sandwich in a pile of bland, ordinary sandwiches. Finding it in one draw is like.. a point of honor.
[I thought you didn't want to do the same thing everyone else does, Chazz? He prefers to be different... to an extent.]
Of course it is. It's called playing hard to get and it's a more difficult game than Duel Monsters.
pseudirfhio[e WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT IT BEING ABOUT ME?! I'm asking for a .... friend.
no subject
[Or try, at least.]
But you said the sandwiches were mixed. How could they all be boring if they're assorted?
For a friend. Yes. Of course. How foolish of me. Then has your friend actually told this girl how he feels?
no subject
Flattery can get you everywhere.].. Because they aren't exclusive! Also some of them are liver... or sardine. Ok, those are worse then average.
[It's totally not about his friend and everyone knows it]
Course he has, what do you think he is.. a total loser?
no subject
Then after receiving a bad sandwich, you could ask to trade someone. I'm certain they're people who enjoy those particular ingredients.
No, I wasn't insinuating he was an idiot. Communication is the key to a successful relationship so if he hadn't of opened up yet then that would be the next step.
He could simply try asking her out the next time he sees her.
no subject
Of course not, because normal rational people would just... trade] It's first come, first serve. No trades. Besides, who is really going to trade for pig's feet or ostrich burger? You're relying an awful lot on there being a lot of people with bad taste...Ok. If it was an honest question, then whatever.
He already tried challenging her a duel, and the stakes included that if she lost she'd have to start dating the guy. Somehow, that didn't win her over. There must be some other grand gesture he could make...
no subject
I would say your friend is not doing the correct thing to impress her. The two don't sound like they truly get along anyways. There is playing hard to get and there is outright disinterest. Your description of her fits the latter.
Forcing someone into a relationship is not the way to win someone's heart, especially if it's from her losing.
I assume your friend lost though, given that he isn't her partner yet.
[One thing Monsoon didn't think he'd ever be given: dating advice.]
.sorry been sick since the 9th x.x
[As for the rest? Chazz can't believe what he's reading. How can this guy not see that Alexis and him would be the perfect couple?! Even Alexis's brother was always encouraging him, and offering him tips, tricks, and support!]
So what was he supposed to do instead? Send a love letter?... Please. That's not a bold enough statement.
And hey.. they might have their ups and downs but that doesn't mean they're completely incompatible!
How many relationships have you been in anyway?!
[Always question the source when they... don't give you the answer you want. Sigh]
I heard from Elle ;A; I hope you're starting to feel better!
There is bold and then there is desperate. Women tend not to like desperate men. It shows they're weak, flighty, unreliable. Not worth their time.
[Monsoon actually takes a moment to think back on that part of his life.]
A few dozen. Nothing ever meaningful though. Plenty of one night stands. I've lost track of how many, to be completely honest.
Ha ha, I saw that XD. I am, thank you!
You think I'm desperate?.. sdhuifgakhr Er, that HE'S DESPERATE?!
[Such a terrible slip.
As if it wasn't common knowledge already.]... Cyborgs still go for that sort of thing?
[Chazz isn't sure whether to be more stunned by a cyborg dating.. or by a cyborg that's gone.. all the way. Either way the thought of a one night stand makes his features go pure red.]
[ooc: It's ok! You heard from us both so it was accurate either way :p. Also, I don't mind if people think I'm Elle- she types WAY more words per minute than I do.]
no subject
It certainly comes off as desperate. No offense to your friend, of course.
As for my sex life, that essentially ended with the upgrade to my robotic body. It's not that I couldn't be equipped with a civilian body instead or that it wasn't on my mind occasionally, I simply found other things in life to occupy my time.
There are plenty of cyborgs whose purpose is just that though.
[ooc: XD That's me with Marcius. It's crazy how fast he can type.]
no subject
I thought it just showed how dedicated he was to this girl. He was willing to do anything to get her attention..
[Despite all his earlier protests, Chazz is starting to worry that there could be some truth in all this. What a blow to the ego that is. Where is Atticus when you need him?]
Woah! Hey! Keep it G-rated! Or at least PG-13! This is a public channel, isn't it?! What if someone snoops on what we're talking about?!
[
So what if they do, Chazz?]............sdjhkl;
[That last bit though, completely blows his mind. Were they actually talking about like sex-bots?! HOW DID THEY GET HERE?!]
[ooc: XD Why can't they share their super powers with us?]
no subject
He forgets that, even with all his attempts, if she isn't interested then it's not something he can force. He's still a teenager, right? He has plenty of time and should try to figure out who he is and what he wants in life. To be happy as himself before he goes seeking companionship.
In the end, is she really worth all of this trouble on his part? It seems he gives and gives and all she does is take.
[That's all Monsoon wants, for people to understand and discover themselves, to work through and understand their flaws.
In a mindfucky way, of course. It's fun to watch people squirm when they realize he's telling nothing but the truth of what he's observed.]
I am keeping it PG-13. Have you not seen Blade Runner?
[ooc: I'm decently fast but I only use like... 3 fingers fff]
