THINGS UNSPOKEN MEME



✔ Post with your characters.
✔ Other characters respond and comment ICly with something they'd like to say to them (or a question for them) but haven't. Or, things they have, but would like to say again.
✔ It can be something incredibly minor or something incredibly serious or something incredibly goofy! e.g. "I was the one who strangled your father with a sausage link" / "I actually hate whiskey and you keep on giving it to me because I said I liked it that one time to impress you" / "There's always a booger hanging from your nose and it makes talking with you REALLY DIFFICULT"
✔ React ICly.
✔ Have fun!

For a politician, you're very nearly a person.

[shifting]

So is Senator the highest you want to go here?

[viced]

Well... it's the highest I can, at the moment.

[shifting]

Not really an answer.

[viced]

No, it's not.

Let's just say that my ambitions and the laws are not aligned. That may change in the future, but for the moment, I'm rather stuck.

[shifting]

Well, if anyone can change 'em, I get the feeling it's you. I'll be keepin' an eye on how you handle things movin' forward.

[viced]

That's...a compliment? I think?

I'll take it, at least. Not too many people say that these days. [ Or ever. ]

[trouvaille]

I was talking to Raina about the difference between - you know, people who do what you do, they get good at talking to you like you're a person. Talking like they are, though. Distinct. Much more rare.

[viced]

Hah! That's... [ A pause. ]

Most people think the opposite about me. It's...nice to hear, once in a while. Most people say I act like a robot.

[trouvaille]

Were you doing an Austrian accent at the time?

[viced]

No?

I'm just... I mean... kind of distant, I guess, is the best way to put it.

[trouvaille]

Distant is a thing only someone who has something to distance can be. Proving my point and not theirs.

You can't be distant from nothing, it's like multiplying zero. I don't think I saw in your head, I just felt like there was somebody there to see.

[viced]

Well...I appreciate that.

And I wouldn't recommend that, either. I'm not as kind as I try to be inside my head.

[trouvaille]

Heavens forfend! A senator isn't a very nice person? Allow me to bear myself off to a fainting couch, I might have the vapors.

Don't worry. I'm not convinced anyone is.

( she trusts least the people she can't find the flaw in. )

[viced]

[ Most people don't have messages from their alternate selves telling them to burn the world -- but hey he'll take the compliment. ]

Shit, you'd be right, in my experience. But I'll try to...you know... not surprise you too much with that being a shit person thing, yeah?

[trouvaille]

I assume everyone is. Saves time.

( sounds like a joke, doesn't it. )
