Fourth wall mingle post

[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 [community profile] witchesreign or open logs in [community profile] 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 ([personal profile] wrmods or [plurk.com profile] witchesreign).

    [...what, no, don't cry, Marco! Daddy will, too!

    Aw fuck it, so he's crying a little, sue him.]
    Like I said. Anything for you.

    [Nooooo don't cry Daddy! Marco will make it better with bandaids! And booze.]

    Mm-hm! [Nods and hides his eyes in a sleeve and snuggles Whitebeard's leg again, briefly hiding in the jacket.] S-same.

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-18 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
    [Mostly booze, though. And he does not care what you say, he will cuddle you, dammit.]

    You've got enough to do, Marco. You don't have to do a damn thing for me.

    [Huggles and fights back his own tears.]

    But I want to. Don't worry okay, the crew's in good hands.

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-20 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
    [You do that okay, daddy will cryyyyyy.]

    Never doubted you for a second.
    fierybluebird: (My Pops is bigger than yours)

    [personal profile] fierybluebird 2012-03-20 12:17 pm (UTC)(link)
    Thanks. [Just gonna cling now Bwaaah ;;]

    Pops... Fishman Island... I can't-- [Bites his bottom lip.] If I try to hold it, it'll be more endangered, and Shanks isn't really responsible enough for it and I can't let it go to Kaido...

    [He has ideas, but he doesn't trust himself as much as he trusts Whitebeard, but he also doesn't want to worry Whitebeard. TRICKY.]

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-25 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
    [Oh no. No no no, Marco, he doesn't want this to happen to you... he holds him close, soothingly rubbing his back. He's well-aware Marco is an adult and doesn't need this, but goddammit, he's going to try and do whatever he can to comfort his son.]

    I'm sorry, Marco... don't try to risk keeping it. It can got to Big Mam. Sure, she'll make them pay an arm and fin in candy, but it'll be safe. The priority of all of you should be staying alive. Don't take unnecessary risks.
    fierybluebird: (crying)

    [personal profile] fierybluebird 2012-03-25 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
    [BWAH ;; And Marco just starts full out crying and clings to Whitebeard's leg and nods.]

    O-Okay.

    [He wishes he was stronger and just a thousand things, but hearing Whitebeard tell him to do what he was thinking makes it all okay. Somehow. Just nice to know they're in sync mentally even now ;;]

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-25 08:13 am (UTC)(link)
    [He keeps him close, and hesitates saying this next bit.]

    Marco... I know it must hurt, but you're not me. And because of that, I don't expect you to hold every single piece of territory we have.

    [Nudges his head up with a giant finger.] What I want is for my sons to stay alive, and not to lose anymore.
    fierybluebird: [Marco arching an eyebrow leaning on an arm with blue background] (Pops... why'd you have to go?)

    [personal profile] fierybluebird 2012-03-27 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
    [Bawls and nods.] I know. I will. I'll keep us alive the best I can, and I know everyone else will do our best too!

    [Trembles and tries to hide his face again.] Sorry Pops... but we'll okay, don't worry. You'll see. Because you'll watch over us in spirit, okay?

    Okay. Now that my heart has been PROPERLY RIPPED OUT.

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-27 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
    [Cradles him in his arms soothingly.] That's the spirit. You guys can do it, I'm sure.

    [He'll let him have his moment.] Of course I will. Me, Ace, Thatch... we'll all watch over you to make sure you'll be okay.
    fierybluebird: (My Pops is bigger than yours)

    T_T ALL MY TEARS

    [personal profile] fierybluebird 2012-03-28 08:57 am (UTC)(link)
    [Clings and sniffles a little. Bwah!]

    Thanks Pops. Ahhhh I don't want to spend all the time I see you again missing you while you're here. Come on. Let's get some food and stuff.

    [ooc: Wedding Post! Sorry if it's late!!!]

    RIGHT. GOD WHY IS EVERYTHING IN THIS SERIES SO SAD

    [personal profile] papa_beard 2012-03-30 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
    [Sets him down, smiling and wiping away the last of his tears.]

    Same here, Marco. Let's eat!
    fierybluebird: (wink wink nudge nudge)

    SERIOUSLY T_T

    [personal profile] fierybluebird 2012-03-30 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
    [Grins back and sets about to get himself a salad and his old man a hot dog. Because the hot dogs are (in)famous.]

    Although if you're really keen we can go hunt down a T-Rexaur and make steaks.
