Fourth wall mingle post

[wrnpcs]

[For the regular denizens of Balamb Garden, it's an ordinary day...until more off-worlders start showing up, for only a few hours at a time. Unsure what to make of these more temporary visitors, the Garden faculty is holding off on registering them as cadets or offering them jobs.

[Maybe someone you know might turn up?]

Mod note, to reiterate:

4th wall characters can only be seen at certain hours of the day. They may appear for two hours a day, or four... or seen only in the early morning... the time doesn't matter to us, but they're not permanently here. They may return to Garden again through the rest of the month, but they're not around 24/7.

Like apped characters, 4th wall characters can't be ridiculously-sized. Transformers, Gundams, and similar concepts/characters will become human-sized (and in the case of mechas, not allowed altogether.)

Players (like you and me) are not allowed to visit Garden. We're breaking the 4th wall, not destroying it altogether!

Apart from this post, 4th wall characters are free to reply to open posts in witchesreign or open logs in concoursec. Apped players have the option of closing their posts to in-game characters only.

All BBS posts are locked to in-game characters only. 4th wall characters do not have access to any sort of logged in posts unless they hijack someone else's log-in---and in those cases, we need to know this beforehand.

For those unfamiliar with the setting, here is more info on Balamb Garden's facilities and layout. Additionally, some of the NPCs around and some player characters may be wearing Balamb Garden's cadet or SeeD uniform.

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask on the OOC post or through the mod channels (wrmods or witchesreign).

[HUGS!]

I've been... the only one. For a little while the you that was here was a marine. That was hella awkward since you know, he completely hated me. [Didn't stop Marco from trying. Nakama are nakama no matter what to him.]

OH! But I'm engaged! I'm getting married probably next month. Aw fuck, I'd have you be my best man, but I promised my other brother, Espio. You should meet him too. He's a great guy even though he's into justice and stuff. And you have to meet my fiance of course.

[hiken_ace]

I promise, I'm a pirate. I'd... show you the tattoo to prove it, but... [Yeah, not finishing that sentence, you can figure it out.

Except his eyes just. Go wide. They look like giant saucers.]

You're WHAT??!?!? You're engaged!?!?

[fierybluebird]

[Oh. Gosh. That gets a hug. HUG FOR ACE.]

[And then a retarded goofy grin.]

Yeah, she's incredible, eh! She adores Izou -- ah it's a long story, we went back in my time very briefly so she met him there.

OKAY let's try that again

[espio]

She's also a psychopath.

[Guess who's found a high up perch to sit and eat fruit. He tuned in somewhere in the middle of the conversation.]

Cute :3

[fierybluebird]

Espio! Ace is back!

[espio]

I know it's shocking, but I do have eyes.

[And strawberries!]

HIJACKS SOME MORE

[redcinemareel]

[Standing on the same limb as Espio.]

And a big mouth. [THROWS AN ACORN AT HIM]

[espio]

[Knocks the acorn straight out of the air with a shot of his tongue, then... goes right back to snacking on strawberries. He's happy here, and he's not moving.]

Your point?

[redcinemareel]

[Ew, Espio, that's really gross.]

...I seem to have forgotten it with that...appendage of yours.

[espio]

[NATURE IS WONDERFUL.

At least he's not trying to eat the local insect population... at the moment, anyway.]

Chameleon. In case you forgot. We do that.

[redcinemareel]

[She knows what to get him for his birthday...]

No, I'm quite certain chameleons use their tongue for eating. Such a failure.

[espio]

Yeah, and where you come from, chameleons can't even talk. Using their tongue for anything other than food - and I'll spare you the demonstration - is a little beyond their pea-sized brains.

[redcinemareel]

You don't know that for sure. [Sure, she tried to kill him because she mistook him for a monster, but WHO WOULDN'T?]

Is it also safe to come to the conclusion that your brain is no bigger than theirs?

[fierybluebird]

GUYS. Give Ace time to say hello! Jeez...

[Turns back to Ace.] As you can see, I don't get bored around here.

[redcinemareel]

...Ace? Is he really here?

[She hops down from the tree with ease, still flaunting her latest look.]

[hiken_ace]

[Well, Ace can see Marco's doing okay. He just laughs. He's happy for Marco, really. He turns to face Grell... and thinks Marco is damn lucky because she's kinda hot. He bows slightly, trying to make a good impression.]

Yes, I'm Ace. Nice to meet you, miss. You're the lucky lady, I'm guessing? Ah, it's nice to meet you too, Espio.

[redcinemareel]

My, my~! So polite and SHIRTLESS you are~! [GRINS] Living up to your name, I see?

[Bless Ace for not wearing shirts.]

Yes, I am the lucky lady. Very lucky.

[hiken_ace]

[........my, how forward you are. H-he's not sure whether he should puff up or avoid a punch from Marco. But yeah, Grell, please overlook the burn scar. It kinda kills his hotness.]

Ah... thank you. [He thinks. Marco, please don't hit hiiiim.] So, how long've you and Marco been dating? [Deets, girl.]

[redcinemareel]

[Thaaaaaaat's Grell! She says it how she sees it. She may be doing it to ruffle everyone's feathers.

Scars are kinda hot.]

You're welcome. [She taps her chin while looking contemplative.] A year and...six months? Ah,truthfully, it isn't long enough~! [Grell smiles to Marco, turning her neck and revealing a bit of her tattoo. The same one shared by the Whitebeard crew, but in red.]

[hiken_ace]

That long? [He chuckles.] Well, you both have my thanks for watching over him for me.

[He raises his eyebrow a little, pointing to her tattoo.] That tattoo...

[redcinemareel]

[Grell looks back at Ace, raising an eyebrow at his finger pointing.]

Hmm? [Then she realizes why he's pointing.] Oh, my tattoo? I got this not long ago. A bit before my birthday, I believe. So...five months ago.

[hiken_ace]

[His face brightens into a smile.] Well, it's kinda late, but welcome to the family.

[sob he misses his tattoo.]

[redcinemareel]

Such a sweetIe you are~!

[Marco can give him one, probably.]

[hiken_ace]

[He scratches his cheek sheepishly.]

A-ah, thank you.

[espio]

[Slight eyeroll.]

Are you done yet? Can I get a word in now?
