Pokemon Umbral Discussion 36: Questions Are Overrated

[Astral Harmony]

Well, stop that. It makes me think you submitted yourself to become his mindslave and the seizure inducing avatar is his branding on you.

[Dracorion]

... What do you think I've been saying in my last two posts?

[Bard The 5th LW]

I'll change it back to Vriska or Konata after I see his reaction.

[Dracorion]

You do realize that now his reaction is going to be the opposite of what you want?

[Astral Harmony]

In hindsight, I will say this for a surety: Geminex, when Impact gets his world-conquering army, they will wear that avatar on their uniforms to show their alliance to you. I don't know if you're happy or sad about it, but it's final and so no amount of Tobasco Slim Jims will get me to decide otherwise.

Now I'm off to work. Have fun, pimps.

[Dracorion]

No, no, I have a better idea.

Brand it on their arms.

Pledge your allegiance to High Overlord Impact or Death!

Ok, first: The Laser Togekiss bit was OOC only. Nothing Renny knows about.

Yes. Impact being leader was not the sweetener. My offering to forget the favor, on the other hand, was. I was gonna make it something else, but I didn't have the proper authority to do so. Pity, that. Trust me, you would've been falling over yourself to declare Charlotte leader and polish my shoes and whatever else I wanted. Mind you, I'm not going to tell you what it is, but that the time of writing, I was pretty sure it was gonna work. So yeah, all those promises? I've pretty much fullfilled them as much as I'm going to.

Now you're saying if I don't pick Charlotte as leader the deal goes to hell.

Nnnooo. I'm saying that I'm unwilling to continue ngotiations if your responses just consist of declining, and asking for proof that Charlotte's better than Pierce. I am fully willing to consider Pierce as a leader, if the price is right. And y'know what? That price? It ain't right.

I mean honestly. You want me to take you seriously (... sometimes, anyway. I guess. Right?), but you make that kind of offer? 'I won't be an asshole'? Really? That only works when I do it. And even then, not well. And only supported by threats.
But I am going to wait with the counteroffer, because you have not yet made any kind of offer in regards to Charlotte. I would like to hear what compromise I'd have to make for her to be leader. Name your price. The favor is not sufficient?

And no lines have yet been crossed. You're just standard-annoying, not hyper-annoying. And besides, we're not conspiring! Much.
Though if we were, you would not want us to bring it on. You would not see the light of day ever again.

And AB, screw that. I'd have to get blue to make it more badass before that would be acceptable? And besides, what world-conquering army?

[Dracorion]

You two make me want to kill myself.

Umm... You might wanna check out my latest post in the RP thread. Read it carefully. And you should know that actually happened before you posted that Impact didn't support lasering Togekiss.

That's not sweetener! That's not sweetener at all! You're just cashing in a favor. Sweetener would've been Pierce being made Charlotte's second in command or something and the favor being forgotten. Basically, I'd have to get something on top of the favor being paid in order for it to be sweetener. Otherwise, like I said, you're just collecting on a debt.

Unless you were actually planning of calling in the favor at another time to make me do something that would prove detrimental toward myself. In which case you should've made it clear. But I doubt that's the case, since there's not really anything I can do for you, is there?

In the future, we might want to specify that favor means "binding contract that you will fulfill when it is called upon". Oh well.

Also, allow me to reiterate this:

And by "refining" I meant "make them better for you". Everyone, I guess. But Drac in particular. Trust me. This is the chance of a lifetime I talked about.
Just need oooone little PM to AB...

I don't recall you making anything better for me in particular. Of course, I could be wrong.

Hey, I haven't asked for proof of Charlotte over Pierce again. And I'm not going to anymore, now that we've determined this is a negotation and not a discussion.

Also, I don't want to decline, but you keep making offers that just aren't worth it.

But you know what? The hell with it.

I can't really make threats. No one ever really takes me seriously and then I have to go through with them and then we're all unhappy.

Okay, I have a counteroffer in mind, I do. It's one you'd love. But I want to see your response to everything else in this post before I tell you it.

Don't go there. I will start making threats and then everything goes to hell.

But you still have to brand it on their arms.
