Game 140

Who: Anyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 229, noonish
What: [On the throne today is a smiling youth, face ringed by black curls. He has a harp-like instrument in his lap and a pen behind his ear. It's been a while since any have seen him, but, perhaps, to the oldest and most keen observers here, he seems perhaps a touch thinner than last time. The Arena is not terribly decorated for his appearance, indeed, if not for the statue sitting there, one would not be sure this was really a call at all.]


Good afternoon, duckies, good afternoon! Who's ready for some wholesome (and platonic!) self-exploration and completely non-fatal fun, hmm? I know I certainly am.  Yes, I'm sure you've all been having just unbearable amounts of fun, but you know, let's just- . . .


[clears his throat]


Ahem. Sorry, I was saying, let's just slow it down.  Maybe, oh, I don't know, talk about our feelings a while.

((Technically, yes, this is a loser game, but anyone can play.))

.......you have to try it more than once. And on different people. Admittedly SOME people just will not get along whatever you do, but that isn't any reason to quit and be jerk-like to everyone else.

I have. You think I haven't? You think I was always like this?! People don't like me! It's just the way it is, so why should I bother when I know it's just gonna turn out like shit?!

[h-hand gestures]

Calm down. It just seems like a really negative thing to accept. I mean, I've accepted that Monoceros is generally forgettable, but that doesn't really affect how we act. But for you, that's something. . .a bit sour. It'd drive me crazy thinking people hated me every day.

I don't like it either, but it doesn't change that it's a fucking fact.

Well, some facts can be changed.

. . .

Haaa. If I had to describe you on the spot, I'd probably call you an asshole, but also someone who's smart, knows how things work, and is generally a good person that can get the job done. I may not like your attitude at times, but I do. . .er, respect you. So. Maybe that's how it is for others?

I . . . what . . . You think I'm a good person?

Yeah. Just a very angry one.
