Graverobber -> Repo! The Genetic Opera

[graaaaves]

[In a cold, dark evening, you might find this shady looking guy this odd looking man sitting somewhere in an alley, next to a small fire he made out of anything burnable he found. He seems to be going over some old pamphlets.]

Jake the Dog -> Adventure Time

[baconpancakes]

Yo, hey.
Where am I?

Blind Mag → Repo! The Genetic Opera

[uccelloingabbia]

[ Two days in the city isn't that long, but it's long enough that she finally found it in herself to venture into the theatre.

She would be there for the next few hours, exploring, until she found her way to the stage. And then, if one were to pay attention, they would hear her sing. ]

Lorelei Windstorm → Original Character

[atropabelladonna]

[ Figures she'd completely ignore the communicator's functions.

She just stands at the station for a good moment, unsure of which way to turn. ]

Hello?
[ ...

Perhaps not as quitely this time: ] Anyone?

Nathan Wallace -> Repo! The Genetic Opera

[shesmyworld]

[He had been walking down the train hiles ever since he woke up, examining every cabin and finding that, in fact, he seemed to be the only one on board. When the train stops, he carefully steps out, looking around in the station.

No one. Not a soul.

He calls out]

Hello?

[youdidyoudid]

[She hadn't been in the city for long. Not long enough that she had much else to do other than wander around exploring the city. That particular day, she had wandered back to the train station.

Needless to say, she was surprised by who she found.]

...Dad?

[youdidyoudid]

[She knows that voice anywhere. Somehow she hadn't known that Mag was in the city, but when she walked past the theatre and heard the singing, she stopped where she was and tentatively entered.

She stood in the back of the room, listening to her godmother sing, not daring to move or make a sound in case she was noticed.]

Re: Blind Mag → Repo! The Genetic Opera

[graaaaves]

[ He had been resting in one of the more secluded rooms backstage, to escape the cold. He woke up to a familiar voice, mildly surprised.
Stepping out to the back of the stage, he watched and listening. It was her, alright. No doubt about it; her voice had marked their world, and even those without means knew her name.

When she was done with her song, he stepped out of the dark and into the stage, with slow claps.]

Bravo.

Don't have a PB, sadly. He's an OC!

[varisian_scholar]

Well, that was certainly...different.

[The man on the platform is facing away from the door, regarding the train with some interest. He's dressed like a man from a time far removed from this - a long blue waistcoat hovers just above knee high black leather boots that haven seen miles of wear. Earrings made of a silver-like metal adorn slightly pointed ears, and a cutlass hangs at his hip. He leans forward, interested in the train, and the ends of a purple sash adorned with golden embroidery and coins come into view.]

While I can't really complain about the mode of transportation, I can certainly complain about being brought here against my will. [A rich accent, not unlike that of Eastern Europe, fills his words, before he turns.] If you're after information I have, I'm not at all sorry to say you won't be getting it.

Pinkie Pie, My Little Pony

[partyfiesta]

[Hello hello Ruby City! Did you ask for a special pony delivery? It wouldn't be your first, truth to be said. Let alone the luxurious and glamorous pony, here you have the one who comes to party.

To literally party.]

Helloooooo everypony!

[The pinkish pony full of energy appears in the video feed, poking her snout against the clock. She now looks confused.]

Who had the lame idea of redecorating Ponyville? This is far from being so happy-happy like it used to be! It needs more colors, and candies, and ribbons, and streamers, and balloons, and EVERYTHING to make a PARTY! Especially candies!

Oh, oh, I know, I know! You guys are planning a surprise party for me! Okaaaaaay, I'm going to act like I have no idea about it! And anytime you're ready, I will be CAUGHT BY SURPRISE! And then we can all party all day long! I hope there will be a lot of games and music and food!

[She looks at the watch, wide smile while waiting for a response.]

Wheeeeenever you're ready!

Shinji Matou (Fate/Extra)

[looselips]

[You are in the grocery store.]

[Also in the grocery store is a young boy. Behind him, he's dragging a bag that is probably way too big for him to actually carry at this point. It appears to be filled entirely junk food, and it doesn't look like he's about to change that any time soon with the way he's just...shoving boxes of snack cakes inside.]

[He doesn't need any adult supervision, though. He can take care of himself. He's practically an adult, okay? Buzz off.]

Re: Shinji Matou (Fate/Extra)

[puppy_lancer]

[Lancer looks down at the child's basket.]

...That's a lot of snacks.

[looselips]

[Ugh. Didn't you hear the meta-commentary, Lancer? He said to buzz off.]

What's your point?

[puppy_lancer]

You're a growing kid. And you don't have anything else in your basket.

[A pause.]

Don't kids need vegetables or something?

[looselips]

Who asked you? I can take care of myself.

[He says, dragging said basket farther down the aisle.]

[puppy_lancer]

[He starts to follow the child.]

Really. No housemates?

[looselips]

I don't need any! I'm not just some kid.

[puppy_lancer]

You look enough like one. How old are you, kid?

[looselips]

I'm—

[Crap.]

What do you care?! What are you, some kind of pedophile?

[puppy_lancer]

[He sputters incoherently for a few seconds before he can come up with a good answer.]

OF COURSE I'M NOT!

[looselips]

[Not good enough.]

Then why are you following me around and asking that kind of crap?! Get away from me, you mouthbreathing child molester!

[He doesn't even believe this, he's just...being an asshole to get Lancer to leave him alone.]

[puppy_lancer]

EXCUSE YOU! ALL MY WOMEN WERE BEAUTIFUL AND OF AGE! AND I BREATHE THROUGH MY NOSE!

[As it to demonstrate, he takes two big whiffs.]

YOU STINK OF DIAPERS! TAKE A SHOWER!

[looselips]

[WOW LANCER never get on the internet. You are ridiculously easy to troll.]

Yeah, right. Like any girl would willingly touch a retard like you. Maybe that's why you're into little kids. [...] You wish. That sounds like the kind of thing you'd like.

[Because, you know.]

[He's calling you a pedophile.]

[puppy_lancer]

[He takes a deep breath and blows a big raspberry at the child.]

Oh yeah? Well not even a pedophile would ever touch a nasty ass of a kid like you!

[Lancer is one of those people who can dish out trolling, but can't take any himself.]

At least I can get women!

[looselips]

How would you know? Are you admitting it?

[is this guy really gloating that he gets more chicks than an eight-year-old]

[really]

[Shinji makes a face.]

Whatever. I could make plenty of girls like me if I wanted to. They're a waste of time, though.
