fast and loose role-play

free and easy love, that's how it's s'posed to be!

want to thread with one of mine but aren't in the same game? want me to do something with one of yours in bakerstreet? can't find a good recent bakerstreet meme but want to thread anyway? want to explore au scenarios together? annoyed that i dropped that character you really wanted a thread with?

well drop me a comment here with whatever scenario (or link to a meme) you want, specify the character you want, and we can thread the merry day away!

any active or retired character from the muse list with two stars or more is fair game!

homeless characters are slightly different in that most of them don't have journals or icons set up, so you may have to give me a day or so to do that. and in some cases, a couple more days to canon review if i haven't in a while.

Re: [NATHANIEL]

... Hello?

[doneproperly]

[Clearing his throat] Ahem.

My... apologies. Something seems to have gone-- awry.

[Looking up and down] This is awfully rustic, even for a--

Where are we?

[sossery]

My room. Which looks fine, by the way.

[doneproperly]

[Frowning]

Is this considered normal accommodations for commoners?

[sossery]

Not in Camelot. I take it you haven't seen many common accommodations.

[doneproperly]

Not exa--

I beg your pardon. Did you say Camelot.

[sossery]

I don't know. Does it start with a C?

[doneproperly]

[Snorts]

Ha ha, you're hilarious. All right, joke's over. Who put you up to this? Was it Farrar? I'll bet it was.

[sossery]

I don't know what you're talking about. You're in Camelot. You're also in my room.

[doneproperly]

Do you think I'm stupid? I wasn't born yesterday. This has been cute, but you might want to tell your master to think their pranks over a little more carefully next time. Since you clearly slept through history class, I'll give you a handy little tip: Camelot hasn't existed for over a thousand years.

[sossery]

You should tell King Arthur that. I'm sure he'd appreciate being told his kingdom is imaginary.

[doneproperly]

[Clearly affronted!!!1]

I didn't say it was imaginary, don't you listen, I said it was-- seriously, King Arthur?

[sossery]

And you told me it was a thousand years ago. I'm quite sure you sound more like the crazy person here.

[doneproperly]

... This is patently ridiculous. If you don't mind, I shall take my leave. Good day.

[Turns and shows himself the door]

[SO THERE]

[doneproperly]

[I hope you weren't relaxing or anything because about 90 seconds later, he walks back in without preamble. Or knocking. And looking somewhat red-faced.]

... There's a castle out there!

[sossery]

You don't say.

[doneproperly]

[NO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, THIS IS AN AFFRONT TO EVERYTHING I BELIEVE IN.]

[Trying to reign himself in but his hand movements are somewhat agitated.]

Well I never-- that's just-- it's very ...



... improbable.

[sossery]

Now that's what I like to hear. "Merlin, the place you've been living in for years isn't supposed to be here. And did you know, pigs fly!".

It's all very entertaining but I have chores to do and you're still in my room.

[doneproperly]

[Slumps against, idk, the wall or something]

... You're Merlin. Of course you're Merlin. Why wouldn't you be Merlin?

[In a lower tone of voice, mostly to himself:] I'm totally out cold on the floor of my workroom back home, aren't I. I really need to stop overworking.

[sossery]

I do know my own name. There's no need to keep repeating it.

Who are you?

[doneproperly]

[Straightens slightly]

John Mandrake.

... Tell me something, Merlin. If you are, indeed, Merlin, and I am playing along with this little charade-- and I may as well, because for all intents and purposes I am either dreaming or have gone quite mad-- why is a magician of your calibre bothered with something as mundane as chores?

[sossery]

I thought you studied history. Shouldn't you know?

[doneproperly]

History books have a funny habit of never saying much about a person's habits or personality. Only their deeds.

[sossery]

Magic is banned in Camelot. Has been for many years. Hence, chores.

[doneproperly]

[He would be laughing into his hands if he weren't, you know, used to restraining himself. Instead you just get an amused snort.]

Well if that isn't the most ridiculous thing I've ever head, I don't know what is.
