rionaleonhart | What Have I Totally Done?

I don't often post audience participation entries these days, simply because there's not much of an audience left to participate; Livejournal and Dreamwidth are very quiet places! But I'm fretting about various things at the moment (nothing insurmountable, things are probably going to be fine), and I could do with a distraction, so it's worth a try:

Ask any fictional character you think I might be able to manage a question, and I'll reply in-character as them with an answer (or possibly reply as myself going 'WHAT THE HELL, I CAN'T DO THIS'). Feel free to ask either as yourself or as another character.

You may, if you wish, ask multiple questions (perhaps of multiple characters) or attempt to engage the characters in extended conversation. I've attempted to answer as real people in the past, but I'm specifying fictional characters this time, I'm afraid!

(Alternatively, or in addition: name a canon you know I have at some point enjoyed, and I'll dig up and post an extract from the unfinished fanfiction I've almost certainly got lying around.)

Feel free to comment even if we haven't talked in six years! If you're not sure of my fandoms (I have approximately a billion fandoms), my tag list should give you an idea. Although for some reason I have a 'buffy' tag? Don't ask for Buffy; I've seen about four episodes and you'll be disappointed.

To avoid duplicates on the 'unfinished fanfiction' question, below are links to the different versions of this entry (and the list of fandoms I've thus far posted snippets for in each one):

Livejournal: The Mentalist, My Little Pony, Harry Potter
Dreamwidth: The Last of Us, Uncharted, Top Gear, Assassin's Creed, The World Ends With You, Dangan Ronpa, Ghost Trick, Supernatural, Doctor Who, Prison Break

...

Anyroad, this is hardly a fair question.

It's not like it's my fault you don't get visitors from Earth.

Actually, what's up with that, anyway? It can't be because you're still shy I AM NOT FOOLED.

We had, um, spriggans a few times, did I tell you that?

I think I told you that.

I believe you described them once and I said they sounded like spriggans. So, yes. Honestly, you've less of a memory than those copperfish some folk keep.

More important things to remember! Like which maw to jump through to get back home!

Don't jump through maws, okay, they go to weeeiiird places.

You do raise a point, though. Ever since the aetheric disruption from the Calamity, we've seen no small number of otherworldly characters. Your Shantotto, for one. That Lightning woman.

whaaat? A woman of lightning? Any relation to Ramuh?

Or, wait, no, I get it, was that her name?

The latter. She didn't have nearly enough of a beard to be related to the father of all beards.

His beard isn't THAT big, gosh.

He's naught BUT beard!

Oh, right, your - uh. You have a funny name for them. Not celestial avatars. Your summonable dudes.

YOUR DUDES ARE DIFFERENT.

WHY ARE THE SAME THINGS DIFFERENTTTTtttt ugh it gives me a headache.

Primals.

Different worlds. By the sound of it, you go world hopping. Why does this surprise you?

SAME WORLD DIFFERENT VERSION

It's still Vana'diel, even if the Beastmen won the war or it's got no moon 'cause Shinryu or whatever.

FOLLOW THE SPRIGGANS, COME VISIT.

No, thank you. As tempting as the offer is, I'm actually dealing with - um. Other things. Quite a bit much going on at the moment.

eh, I know how that goes, though don't think I won't be pestering you for the story you are very, very obviously not telling.

IS IT AN EXCITING STORY

Nnnnnnot in a good way. It feels sometimes as if whatever power it was Louisoix used to send so many of us to the --- new present, I still think of it as "the future," despite having been here for some time now.

It's as if chaos returned with us. I'm sure the five years between were anything but calm, but it all feels a bit much lately.

Drama llama, eh?

(no subject)

I KNOW MAYBE I WILL COME VISIT YOU somehow. Moogles?

I always forget moogles have so much more sway in your world. Regardless, haven't you got your own, uh, drama llama to deal with there?

Honestly no, yes, maybe, I don't know.

I think I'm getting tired.

It's complicated.

Is this something to do with that rhapsodies project?

I think I might know the Lightning woman you're talking about! Did you meet her? How did you get along? (I realise she isn't always the most personable of people.)

We spoke once, and I was one of the many who helped fight alongside her, but that was all.

I think she may have been trying to run from something. She said she had been asleep, but after watching all of us in Eorzea fight on after... everything, she was ready to take on...? I'm not sure I remember. She shouted challenges to the sky and vanished.
