I'LL BE A TEENAGE IDOL JUST GIVE ME A BREAK

WHO: ImPorts!
WHERE: Heropa's Convention Centre.
WHEN: April 14-16, from 9 AM - 12 AM every day.
WHAT: Registration is in motion alongside FanPort, the most popular imPort convention around! Come on in and see imPort-led panels, the artist's alley, cosplayers, and more! If you have any questions, or wish to amend the way we have written up your characters' panels, let us know here!
WARNINGS: None anticipated; please let us know if this should be changed.



Welcome, imPorts, to the one and only FanPort! As they're driven outside of the convention center, they'll see line-ups leading well out the doors filled with those dressed normally and cosplayers alike, complete with plenty of scalpers just outside of the doors. As guests of honour, imPorts get to skip past all the busy lines and are ushered into the Convention Centre through the back doors, only to be greeted with a veritable swarm of people. The quiet room being used for the Swear-In aside, this venue is absolutely packed, and filled to the brim with enthusiasm. Venture in a little further, imPorts, and see what awaits you...

A R T I S T ' S A L L E Y

The Artist's Alley is a bustling place, filled with creative minds of all sorts. It's easy to find tasteful - and not-so-tasteful - prints of imPorts to hang on the wall from everything to Power Girl leaping heroically into the air to Dorian Gray with his back turned and a sultry expression on his face. Of course, Artist's Alley isn't restricted to mere drawings: it's easy to find piles of plushies and keychains, buttons, T-shirts, and other types of exciting merchandise!

Want to simulate the mind as well as the eye? Look no further than the piles of doujinshi ready for the taking. Most tables are dominated by interactions that are seen as at least somewhat legitimate - such as Shepenko, Geiszlieb, and Pricefield - but there are tables in the back who crow about rarepairs like Laurie/Maya, Olivier/Kang, Gansey/Manolo and more! There's plenty of creativity on display, but be careful: as long as all involved parties are of age, there may be a scene a touch steamier than expected!

If you don't see what you want being sold already, there are plenty of commissioners who would leap at the chance to provide an imPort with a custom print or doll, just for them!

C O S P L A Y C O N T E S T

It's not a true convention without cosplayers, and for this event, the cosplayers come out in droves. There are those who have clearly raided their closet for ideas - claiming that they're the more ordinary looking imPorts like Jesse Pinkman or Alison Hendrix - but others have delighted in the challenge that the stranger imPorts have presented to them. Non-humans such as Kanaya Maryam and Marceline Abadeer are common for those who want to flex their make-up skills, but otherwise, heroes with identifiable costumes or who commonly wear period dress are popular choices.

And what of imPorts who want to join in? There are only two rules: imPorts may not enter as themselves, nor are they allowed to use shapeshifting powers. Other than that, they're welcome to join in on the competitions and the festivities! There are awards being given for everything from Best Performer to Best Costume to Most Accurate Posing, so jump in, and enjoy!

I M P O R T H A L L

Aside from the panels, this is where imports are welcomed as special guests! Above the entire affair is a huge sign that reads, cheerfully: "WELCOME IMPORTS!". Here, imPorts are welcomed to set up their own booths to sell their goods, autographs, and pictures, advertise their businesses, or to simply meet some of their fans! Security is tightest around this area, but only for the safety of imPorts; if any fans get a little too touchy-feely without the imPort's consent, rest assured, they'll be hauled out in short notice.

This is also the place where willing and participating imPorts are showered with special gifts featuring everything from fanmade scrapbooks of their public exploits and fanart, home baked goods, or samples from all sorts of corporate representatives eager to have imPorts represent everything from their clothing and perfume lines to their hemorrhoid creams.

R E F R E S H M E N T S

After all this fuss and bluster, it's time to get some refreshments. Just outside the venue, a series of imPort-inspired food tracks and stalls have set up shop, and are ready for your business! Want cotton candy in the shape of Qubit's hair? How about spooky, squid ink Scarecrow pasta? Dipper Dots icecream with a side of Mabel Mint Crisps? Some Minato Aritacos? Whatever your fancy, this is your place to find all the food you could ask for and more, complete with discounts if you're willing to show off that fancy imPort tattoo to prove that you're not just an exceptionally good cosplayer.

B A L L P I T

Even imPorts need a break from all this attention, which is where the ballpit comes in. It looks like they may have run out of funding when they planned this one... but hey, only imPorts are allowed in the ballpit room, and surely they'll be able to entertain themselves.

R A V E

As the convention begins to wind down in the evenings, other people are just getting started! The grand hall is opened up to various imPort inspired acts, including but not limited to the acts described in the last Majority Report, including new acts such as the A-T-inspired Roller Blade Bunnies, the Kid Flash-inspired All I See Is Yellow, and the Jinseok Jin-inspired Blissful Beauties. All of these shows are complete with light shows and complimentary glow sticks, and once the clock hits past 9 PM, a bar opens up in the back for natives and imPorts alike, provided that they're of-age -- and yes, they will be checking their IDs!

Want to get your rock on? These acts will gracefully step aside to allow imPort musicians to take the stage, but will respond even more happily to jam sessions.

P A N E L S

PLEASE STOP MESSING UP THE TIMESTREAM

What happens when imPorts bring in their own technology to a world unprepared for it? What happens when they try traveling in time? How does this adversely affect the world around them, and how can you help stop it? Find out here, as an old man yells at an audience that's mostly excited to see an imPort in-person. Starring imPort guest: The Doctor.

LEAVE ME ALONE & DON'T TOUCH MY LUGGAGE

A short, five-minute panel in which con-goers can get the necessary information about that odd trunk with feet they've seen scurrying around. This necessary information includes: 1) leave its owner, Rincewind alone, and 2) do not touch the luggage, complete with stacks of informative pamphlets. Brevity is the soul of wit, right? Starring imPort guest: Rincewind the Wizzard.

THE UNIQUE CHALLENGES OF BEING NON-HUMAN IN A VERY HUMAN WORLD

Join some of America's non-human imPorts in discussing the trials they face on a daily basis, and why they have decided to create SELF, an organization built to help them! While this is no doubt scintillating stuff, new members and businesses that may wish to invest are welcome. Starring imPort guests: Kang, Sabriel, and more!

MAGIC: NOT JUST FOR YOUR KID'S BIRTHDAY PARTY

Curious about magic? Tune in here for a discussion of the ins and outs of magic, differences across worlds, and what it's used for! Not interested in all that nerdy crap? Make sure to arrive for the second half of their presentation for a real life demonstration of magic! (FanPort does not take responsibility for any injuries or loss of property that may occur during this demonstration). Starring imPort guests: Sabriel, Elsa Brandt, L'Arachel, and more!

RISEING ABOVE: CHALLENGES AND TRIUMPHS IN IMPORT LAW ENFORCEMENT What we should really be talking about this convention is ethics in imPorts, and what better way to start than with America's very own law enforcement organization, RISE? Find discussion on the ethics of superpowers, dangerous imPorts, and how differently imPorts from other worlds and cultures view this world's legal system. Get out your pens and paper, because there's sure to be plenty of college students writing about this as a practical assignment! Starring imPort guests: Sabriel and RISE.
BEYOND MEDICINE: IMPORT HEALING TECHNIQUES Interested in imPort healing techniques? Have some sort of nasty injury or illness that native medicine just can't fix? If you're willing to sign a waiver, this is your chance to get it cured, thanks to the saint-like generosity of charitable imPorts. Just be warned that those suffering from deadly conditions will take priority! Starring imPort guest: Jesse Pinkman.
STAYING FIT WITH YOUR DOG Think something as mundane as workout routines with man's best friend is too mundane for this convention? Think again! A real expert on exercise is here to teach you and your pooch how to stay fit with both indoor and outdoor activities, complete with a Q&A, a photo-op, and doggie demonstrations. If you're not interested, that's fine; stay for the cute dogs... or for their handsome owners. Hubba, hubba! Starring imPort guest: Commander Shepard.
A SALUTE TO THE SUPERSUIT! Who says that you can't fight crime and look stylish at the same time? ImPorts are here to discuss the dos and don'ts of supersuit fashion, showcasing the most cutting-edge suits that natives no doubt see on the news every day, and tips for all con-goers and, needless to say, extremely invested cosplayers. If other imPorts are interested in sharing, they are welcome to do so! Starring imPort guests: Echidna and Wallflower.
DENDARII SECURITY CORPS This panel is what it says on the title: a prolonged advertisement for the Dendarii Security Corps. Don't worry, though, there will likely be tales of dashing adventure, and maybe you'll even discover how the heck to pronounce Dendarii in the first place! Starring imPort guests: Miles Vorkosigan, Gregor Vorbarra, and Tex.
IS THAT A DRAGON IN MY GARDEN? All these sentient imPorts hobbling around are all well and good, but aren't you interested in what exists on other worlds? If that's the case, this panel is for you! Listen as imPorts discuss fantastic creatures, robots, aliens, and super smart dogs that just don't exist naturally in this world, and enviously follow along to the various stories those with far, far more exciting lives than you have to tell! Starring imPort guests: Hawke and The Doctor.
PHOTO-OP WITH THE BULL He's huge, he has arms, and he's got pecs to die for. What more could you want in a man? Take a photo with the Iron Bull today in his specialty booth for a small fee... and even attack him with a plastic sword if you dare. Starring imPort guest: The Iron Bull, of course!
SURVIVING UNDER FIRE: THE MILITARY APPROACH TO FIRST-AID Even conventions need to touch on serious issues sometimes. In the wake of so much violence, your charitable neighbourhood imPorts are here to show you how to conduct first-aid in tight situations, something that's doubtlessly useful to each and every imPort fan in the audience. Starring imPort guests: Kaidan Alenko and Commander Shepard.
BIOTICS 101: EVERYTHING YOU WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT SPACE MAGIC What the heck is up with those glowy blue powers from space? Join your imPort guests for a brief lecture on what biotic powers do, how they work, and what it takes to keep a biotic going. Provided is a table of food as a demonstration of just how much they eat, and more entertainingly, live demonstrations of what they can really do! Starring imPort guests: Commander Shepard, Jacob Taylor, Kaidan Alenko, and Samara.
IN THE ARMS OF AN ANGEL: ADOPT AN ANIMAL OR SUFFER CRIPPLING GUILT Have you noticed a large amount of imPorts walking around with cuddly furry, feathered, or scaled pets? That's for a reason! Join us today in a panel about the animal shelter, and the dos and don'ts of adopting an animal today! Starring imPort guest: Carl.
MAGNETS AND MOTORBIKES You see that panel above about how not to introduce technology outside of this timeframe? Ignore it! Look at cool bikes instead! Join imPorts in a practical discussion of building motorcycles, magnetic technology, and take a look at their cutting edge technology. Note: All racing that goes on outside of FanPort is not affiliated with this organization, nor is it condoned by it, and they are not responsible for any injuries incurred in outside demonstrations. Starring imPort guest: Gogo Tomago.
BUILDING THE FUTURE WITH IMPORT TECHNOLOGY Continuing the trend of bringing imPort technology to the forefront, come and watch this panel for a spirited discussion of imPort technologies, and how it will pave the way to the future and a brighter tomorrow! Want to know what it can do for you? Step right up, and take a look. Starring imPort guest: Tony Stark.
IMPORTS AND REGISTRATION: A CONTROL MODEL THAT SPANS WORLDS Join your friendly imPorts in discussing Registration, and how this has been used - effectively, even! - in other worlds! Take a look at how it's used for the safety of everyone involved, as told by one of America's greatest success stories. How could Tony Stark ever be wrong? Starring imPort guest: Tony Stark.
IMPORTS AND THE LAW: AN EVERCHANGING LANDSCAPE Want something with a lot of pizzaz, with a ton to look at, and plenty to interact with? Go to some other panel! If you're interested in law, and the ramifications of the ever-evolving state of the law in light of changing politics and the shifting population of imPorts, however, this is the panel for you, in as much detail as anyone could possibly ask for. Starring imPort guest: Mitchell Hundred.
Q&A WITH THE AMBASSADOR(S)

Ever wonder what it's really like being the Ambassador of an imPort city? Whether you want to know what colour tie the ambassador in question likes wearing, want to know more about due process, or just want to get a juicy scoop, step right up to where at least one Ambassador is ready to answer your questions! Starring imPort guest: Mitchell Hundred.

Follow our imPort guests into a world of fashion from clothing to hairstyles to tasteful cosmetics! Starring imPort guests: Pacifica Northwest and Ken Amada.

CHUCKY KENTUCKY WORLD PREMIERE

Everyone welcome the premiere of America's newest teen pop sensation: Chucky Kentucky! ImPort fans have been abuzz since this event was announced, speculating on everything from his doubtlessly fashionable clothes to the dulcet tones of the voice they're bound to hear.

AIR TREK: THE COOLEST TECH AROUND

LAWYER AT LARGE: IMPORTS' IMPACT, INVOLVEMENT, AND INFLUENCE ON TV & MEDIA

If you wish to discuss Jeff Winger's TV show, however, and learn a thing or two about his firm, this is the place for you! While this is mostly Q&A, don't worry; maybe Jeff will even divulge a secret or two about his killer work-out routine. Starring imPort guest: Jeff Winger.

WELSH KINGS, LEY LINES, AND THE NEW WORLD

Calling all history buffs! One of your friendly imPorts is here to teach you about natural magic and the supernatural, including all sorts of spooky splendors like ghosts, mythical Kings, and how the supernatural fits into World History. While it may be more informative than it is strictly entertaining, it's bound to be a treat for inquiring minds. Starring imPort guest: Gansey

SCREAM QUEENS SECRET PANEL

This secret panel is... wait a second. This panel isn't secret at all! Using the glories of false advertising, imPorts take the stage to announce a benefit concert to be held within the next month. Ask your imPort entertainers questions about what it's really like to be them and listen to a song or two, but if it's a concert you want, you'll be disappointed... unless you stay for the real deal for their next panel! Starring imPort guests: Marceline and Maya Fey.

SCREAM QUEENS CONCERT

Now this is where the party's really at! Join one of your rocking-est - FanPort's description, not her own! - vampire superstar in a performance ready to bring the house down. And hey, if you want to shell out some cash for some merch and support your local artists, that's certainly a plus. Starring imPort guest: Marceline.

RELIGION: HOW TO JUSTIFY YOUR FAITH IN A WORLD WHERE THE DEVIL EXISTS

Whoa. Things are getting heavy around here as one very special imPort takes the stage to talk about the influence of the devil, dispel common myths about his possession of equine features, and a meditation on what Lucifer means to the common man. Starring imPort guest: Lucifer.

KISS KISS FALL IN LOVE WITH THE PINK PRINCESS! TV SHOW TODAY!

A Q&A panel featuring The Pink Princess herself, expect droves of the kids the show is directed at, and yes, plenty of adult fans to flock to this panel in droves! Gain hints as to what the Pink Princess is going to be up to next, and look at some awfully familiar silhouettes for future partners and villains... but of course, everyone's here for one reason, and that's the cute-as-a-button leading lady. Starring imPort guest: Maya Fey



wizzardly: (Good. Yes. What?)

[personal profile] wizzardly 2016-05-02 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, gods.

'Sticky end' is a hell of a phrase to use, it really is. Rincewind opens his mouth to protest (or, more likely, to beg for mercy), but then the air shimmers and gains weight and he finds he's lost his voice. Lucifer's wingspan - all magic and textured, visible power - fills the narrow space like a small storm the wizard deathly fears the gusts of. His hairs stand on end; he shivers.

Between the thoughts that he's about to die and the looming question of how terrible that will be, Rincewind can't help but wonder where Death is. Now seems the perfect time for that particular skin-deficient friend of his to show up. Has Lucifer leashed him in this world too?

"Spy?" Bewildered and still far, far too focused on the words 'horrible and wonderful', he tries to process this suggestion. Little of it computes. He knows what spies are, of course - Ankh-Morpork is filled with Lord Vetinari's network of them, if the rumors are to be believed - but trying to picture what a spy might look like just keeps conjuring images of people he has nothing in common with.

(The words 'you're fortunate' also have a peculiar, needling sting to them. A small voice in Rincewind's head gives a grim smile and asks 'Bet?')

"Spy," he says again, like he's rolling the word on his tongue for taste. For a moment it looks like the archangel is gaining physical height, before the wizard realizes he's been steadily sinking to his knees in terror. Rincewind hastily forces his legs to stop shaking, and presses himself back against the wall to straighten. His eyes flicker once past Lucifer's shoulder, trying to see the state of possible exits behind the angel.

"How - how do you mean that, exactly?"

[Kel brings her gaze back on him steadily. 'Murderous' was an.... Interesting choice of words, at least for one trying to pass himself off as a god of some kind. And even if it isn't meant as some sort of threat, there doesn't seem to be anything gained here anymore.

So she gives him a pleasant courtier's smile, bows, not one inch deeper than to an equal, and says with utmost sincerity]


I thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

[...and heads for the door]
vorbarra: (ether-bunny34)

[personal profile] vorbarra 2016-05-02 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Gregor never expected truly personal information to start with, much less after he knows he's lied to him, so he feels no entitlement toward more than this vague answer.

He nods. ]
That must be incredibly frustrating for you, to be interrupted in your... quest is probably hideously appropriate as a term.

[personal profile] maglevflash 2016-05-02 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[She doesn't want to tell him that here a person can go further. That they can die and then come back with that memory lurking in their heads and sometimes even a power that will never let them forget. Tadashi came back.

She's quiet for a moment, thoughtful, then a slow smirk grows on her face.]


You know, with the hat I'd never expect you were a philosopher.
amadaman: ((p3) 183)

[personal profile] amadaman 2016-05-02 04:55 pm (UTC)(link)
I.... I guess you could say so.

A lot more of them were interested in me and Dipper as a pair than either of us on our own, but I found a few people dressed as me. It was kind of flattering but mostly embarrassing.
112ounces: (Default)

[personal profile] 112ounces 2016-05-02 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I do. But if you don't want to talk about it, then I understand.

[ He's not gonna push it. ]

I just don't want you to feel alone on this, you know?
enucleation: DEFAULT - DEFAULT (Normal - pic#8845545)

[personal profile] enucleation 2016-05-02 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[ see kaneki doesn't find it embarrassing or flattering he just finds it stupidly creepy ]

Aha- there is still a lot to get used to even after being in this world for so long. [ kaneki shakes his head a little ]

But if you had fun, it's good anyway.
schrodingersghost: (Default)

[personal profile] schrodingersghost 2016-05-02 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Great. If its not one thing its another.

[Danny really, really did not want to fight a war. But if there was someone else there that thought he was just a thing...

Well, that wasn't so different from home, come to think of it. That was kind of depressing to think about. ]


amadaman: ((p3) 070)

[personal profile] amadaman 2016-05-02 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
You should start.

I have recordings.
homerunning: (Girls are pretty great)

[personal profile] homerunning 2016-05-02 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh, guess that makes me--

...




Well, she's only "kind" of like Yukaricchi.

[personal profile] homerunning 2016-05-03 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh he knows. Shinjiro's existence only confirmed that. But continuing beyond that...well, it's not like you've got much to go back to.]

Heh, what can I say? I've got a deep mind.


Someone's got to wonder about life's great mysteries, you know.
rassera: (Ridiculously happy)

[personal profile] rassera 2016-05-03 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
[Cue a shove back, although just as playful.]

You were the one who said you were a cop!
rassera: (Default)

[personal profile] rassera 2016-05-03 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
Consider your help payment.

[And because he's got a total weakness for girls. Can't be helped.]
amadaman: ((p3) 039)

[personal profile] amadaman 2016-05-03 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
[SIGH. Ken doesn't grumble at him anymore, though. With Noodle and Penny looking at him expectantly, he can only walk up to Bull and hold up his arms so he can pick him up. He's used to being raised up by the guy, at least!]

I'm in heels so watch the feet.
doubleblind: (Germanium)

[personal profile] doubleblind 2016-05-03 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Cosima tries to look like it's not a big deal if she is or isn't, but she's clearly pleased by the thought. Cosima's pretty sure she's never going to be a mom, but she likes kids.]

Maybe. I've got some tough competition. Helena's great with kids.
amadaman: ((p3) 136)

[personal profile] amadaman 2016-05-03 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, well... I'm usually not this flashy, either.

[Yes you are Ken. You're bright orange. Ahem. He shakes his head.]

A lot of people are really fond of imPorts, and there aren't a lot of us around our age. That's probably why.
liverletdie: (Come on gurl)

[personal profile] liverletdie 2016-05-03 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Isn't it?

[ Well, he couldn't disagree with that. With the purchase under his arm, he looked around, at the crowd, and then down at Charles. He suspected that this was probably what he needed, to see a new face of import/native relations. ]

It's kind of nice, to know we're not universally hated, huh? It gets really easy to see the larger view, and forget that we do have support.

It's just not always obvious, but... it's nice to see.

Do you ever see things like this at home? For mutants?
liverletdie: (Iron Man | giiiiirlfriiiiend)

[personal profile] liverletdie 2016-05-03 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
I can't blame you for that.

[ A laugh, and he put a hand on his hip, while he moved around someone who decided to walk between them. He turned, to look back, a frown on his face, eyes narrowed, before he focused back on Betty. She was much more interesting than anyone else that was trying to occupy his time, anyway. ]

Well, you know, national labs don't have to be your only option. If the fancy strikes you.
amadaman: ((p3) 120)

[personal profile] amadaman 2016-05-03 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
I guess no matter how long you spend in any place, there's always something new. If not about the place, then about the people who come and go.

But yeah, I think I'm having fun. This year I have friends I could go with. Is Hinami-chan here, too?
excessivehubris: (pale and worried)

[personal profile] excessivehubris 2016-05-03 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
[ When he'd made the choice to set down Hank's serum, when he'd returned from talking to himself in the future, Charles had intended to go forward with hope.

He had promised Logan he would re-open the school, look for mutants, lost and in need of guidance and help bring them all together.

Charles intended to fulfill that promise, he did but it was all still so new. Shaking off a decades worth of pain and loss took time, even for a willful bastard like Charles Xavier. Then when he'd just made these choices, he was yanked away from his home and tossed into a world that felt too much like the disaster they'd just fought to avoid.

He wanted to make the appropriate, positive noises in response to Tony's question but the truth was ..

Charles was forced to shake his head, eyes glancing away from from tumble of fans on either side of them. ]


Mostly it's been trying to obliterate ten of us on a beach with close to three hundred missiles in an effort to eradicate the mutant threat. I used my money and my powers to shelter those I could at the mansion but when that shut down, a large group of known mutants were taken by Trask, experimented on and killed.

Some managed to escape into the army, Vietnam drew the attention of most but I know there were still arms of the military planning to assist Trask with his experiments. And of course, Trask was pushing forward with the Sentinel program.

Raven managed to alter that trajectory when she didn't kill Trask but things were still very, tense back home. Mutants were still feared ... [ he paused, his mind casting back to his conversation with Erik ] and hatred was still very close to the surface.

[ At best he had to accept that mutants were warily watched, at worst they were actively hunted. It would take a lot of work to over come that fear and desire to destroy that which was different.

Despite his promises Charles felt the weight of the task ahead threatening to overwhelm him. It twisted together with the struggles he saw in this world, threatening to morph into a dark, gnawing sense of panic. Suddenly the crowd made him feel claustrophobic, the weight of their minds pressing in on him. Clearing his throat, Charles set his hands on the wheels of his chair and sat up a little straighter, turning to look up at Tony. ]


But it gives me an idea of what we should strive for, yes? [ He pushed as much positive bravado into the words as he could and hoped the brittle note he could hear in his voice didn't carry to Stark. Charles smiled widely, attempting to use the expression as a shield. ]

However, if you'll excuse me. There was a panel I was going to try to catch, before heading back to Nonah. And I suspect you have more artwork to go admire.
kanadian: (Oh ew no)

[personal profile] kanadian 2016-05-03 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
What, the singularity?

[ He tipped his head, before he looked back at the waiting crowd, which was actually really into the fight between Tetsuo and Kaidan -- for obvious reasons. It was exciting. ]

Maybe we could try later? When we're not around a ton of people? Biotics get dangerous...

I dunno. I've never really bought art before. What kinda stuff do you like doing most?

[personal profile] darwinatrix 2016-05-03 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
[She crosses her arms over her chest, drumming white-gloved fingers against her forearm.] A man turns down credit for what he's rightfully done, he's either a coward or he wants something.

I don't like him, either way.
darwinatrix: (pic#7878292)

[personal profile] darwinatrix 2016-05-03 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
[She looks at him for a few moments long and then shrugs.] Weird. Don't understand it.

Don't really care.
darwinatrix: (Default)

[personal profile] darwinatrix 2016-05-03 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose. If you care about that sort of thing.

Go right ahead; I'm not stopping you.
