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.))

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.

Anyway.
