Plan 02: Hot or Not?

[lizardtits]

It's been a hell of a month for everybody, hasn't it? Those reflections are taking a toll on a lot of people. I'd say I can empathize, but my reflection turned around and left after about three minutes, so I've just been bored this month as everyone else is preoccupied with themselves. But, I got an idea. I spent a few weeks in a gnome city back home. They had devices similar to the Nunitorium here, and from time to time they'd write up big social events for people to participate in to pass the time. Given this world's propensity for... intimate relations, I figure it would be fun to make use of one of them here.

The game is called Hot or Not, and the rules are simple. Put your name underneath this header. Or, put a friend's name, for added fun. Others can then comment on how hot they are. If you don't want your handwriting to give you away, use hearts! ❤ means "Eh..." and ❤❤❤❤❤ means "Sweet Bahamut take me now". I figure we could all use a bit of fun to balance out everything else this month.

((OOC: Feel free to post a glamour shot of your character to remind other players what they look like. Outside of that, it's a free-for-all.))

((Also, Velo forgot to take into account that the reflections are, in fact, still there. If they want to say something, go nuts!))

THE GREAT PAPYRUS!!!

[einspine]

[Included is an intricately detailed drawing of a ~handsome skeleton~ with goggles and... a very detailed, muscular physique.

His biceps have sunglasses on them.

He is also winking. There are sparkles around him.

On a more OOC note, here is an actual image of him. And another.]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Excellent drawing of the bone zone there! You're a great artist!

Take me to the bone zone next~

[einspine]

THE BONE ZONE...

HMMM.

A ZONE FOR BONES. A ZONE FOR COOL SKELETONS...

ARE YOU SAYING YOU WANT TO VISIT MY PERSONAL ABODE?!

[GASP! How forward... and yet very expected of Pacca.]

Re: THE GREAT PAPYRUS!!!

[paladin_and_loving_it]

You've got a really nice aesthetic going there. You give off best friend vibes more than hunky vibes. Still, would totally date you. Do you like gyros?

❤❤❤

[einspine]

THAT DEPENDS ON WHAT GYROS ARE! I'M ASSUMING YOU MEAN IN A SENSE OTHER THAN MECHANICAL-TYPE GYROS.

IN WHICH CASE, I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, AM OPEN TO TRYING NEW THINGS!

ALSO! FRIEND VIBES ARE STILL GOOD VIBES. THAT IS A SCIENTIFIC FACT!!!

[paladin_and_loving_it]

Yeah, there is this sandwich shop down the street that makes them. It's made of some kind of hardened, flavorful meat paste on a rotating grill which they shave bits off of and wrap up in flat bread. It also comes with this creamy sauce.

[einspine]

INTRIGUING. VERY INTRIGUING.

WELL! AS A SCIENTIST AND A SUPER COOL DUDE, I'D BE REMISS TO PASS UP AN OPPORTUNITY TO VENTURE INTO THE UNKNOWN!

[lizardtits]

❤❤❤❤

I never thought a skeleton could look attractive, but I stand corrected.

[einspine]

[S-So many compliments... That'll teach his naysayer of a reflection!!!]

WHY, THANK YOU!!!

AND, NATURALLY, YOU RADIATE BOTH COOL AND ELEGANCE! ERGO, YOU ARE ALSO VERY GREAT!

[lizardtits]

Huh. Haven't heard 'elegant' before; the only thing elegant about me is how well I escape consequences. But, thank you nonetheless.

[einspine]

BUT YOU SEE, ESCAPE ARTISTRY REQUIRES FINESSE! IT TAKES STYLE! FLAIR. ALL GOOD THINGS THAT CAN BE ELEGANT!

[air_raider]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Classy and stylish, and smart and funny to boot. You're the whole package and then some, Paps, even if you don't have a package in the traditional sense. I'd love to see how you compensate.

[einspine]

COMPENS

[It takes a moment for him to fully connect the dots. And then his mind winds back to their conversation a while ago and.

Oh.]

WELL. YOU SEE, WHEN TWO MONSTERS LOVE EACH OTHER VERY MUCH

[No. Maybe not like that.]

WOULD YOU BELIEVE ME IF I SAID MAGIC??? THAT'S PROBABLY THE SIMPLEST ANSWER!

THOUGH I AM A THAUMATURGIST. WHICH MEANS TECHNICALLY I CAN MODIFY MY BODY? EVEN IF MY FIRST THOUGHTS WEREN'T IN THOSE PARTICULAR

CONTEXTS.



ANYWAY!! I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, APPRECIATE THE KIND WORDS!!! NYEH HEH HEH!

[air_raider]

Consider me sold, Great Papyrus. I'd love to see what sort of body modification magic you can do.

[einspine]

[Well.

That happened.

And she'd already offered before.

A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A...?

It's. A good thing this is a magic book and he can take his time to formulate a response while still seeming cool and collected!]

WELL



THOSE SORT OF. APPLICATIONS ARE UNTAPPED TERRITORY. BUT... SCIENCE IS ABOUT PURSUING THE UNKNOWN AND MAKING IT KNOWN! SO THERE'S THAT.

ALTHOUGH I'VE NEVER

I'M STILL A

I AM COMPLETELY COOL AND COLLECTED AND PAPYRUSY!!! NYEH! AND HEH! ALL IS WELL!

[air_raider]

Well I'm more than happy to let you take it slow and figure out how to use your powers in a more... constructive manner. We'll go explore the unknowns and see just how creative you can get.

Besides, I've had your cooking. Honestly, dinner, some entertainment, and then mapping new ground with a cool and collected partner sounds like my idea of a good time.

Y'know, we can take it at your pace. I wouldn't want to rush you into making new discoveries.

[einspine]

YES. VERY CONSTRUCTIVE! BECAUSE I WILL PROBABLY BE CONSTRUCTING... WELL.

YOU KNOW.

BUT! IF YOU HAVE ANY... PREFERENCES, I CAN TRY TO KEEP THAT IN MIND?

I BELIEVE I CAN ALSO ALTER OTHER PEOPLE, AND I CAN MAKE MYSELF LIQUID, BUT I'M NOT SURE WHAT APPLICATIONS THAT WOULD HAVE.

[mech_and_mutt]

What do I put if the answer is 'you make me really want a bone'

[einspine]

PLEASE DON'T NIBBLE ON THE SKELETON!!!

THESE BONES ARE NOT SNACKS! AT LEAST. IN THE NON-METAPHOR FOR ATTRACTIVENESS SENSE.

[mech_and_mutt]

Hey, we already talked about this!!

I don't just chew on any old bones, y'know!! And not ones that belong to my friends!

[einspine]

WELL! HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT BONE-SHAPED BISCUITS? I CAN'T OFFER NORMAL BONES, BUT I CAN OFFER THOSE.

ALL THE APPEALING SHAPE OF THE GENUINE ARTICLE WITH FEWER EXISTENTIAL CONUNDRUMS!

[mech_and_mutt]

Seriously though is chewing bones that bad??

It's not like they're yours or belong to anyone you know

I have bones in my body too and you don't see me complaining

[einspine]

NOT BAD. JUST WEIRD.

I'M USED TO BONES BEING PART OF VERY ALIVE SKELETONS. OR USED AS OUR ATTACKS.

...AND STOLEN BY PILFERING POOCHES.

NOT THAT I CONSIDER YOU A THIEF! BUT THERE'S THIS ONE DOG. A VERY ANNOYING DOG. HE LIKES TO MAKE EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE A LIVING NIGHTMARE, ALL WHILE LOOKING CUTE AND INNOCENT!

I SHOULD PROBABLY JUST SEPARATE THE BONES HERE FROM MY BONES. OR... MY ATTACK-BASED BONES. CHEWING RANDOM BONES IS CERTAINLY LESS UNSETTLING THAN SEEING LIFELESS SKELETONS CONTROLLED BY SLIME.

[dead_people_tea]

[He doesn't understand the ranking system, but he does know how to give compliments so...]

You always have so much energy!

[einspine]

NYEH HEH HEH!!! OF COURSE! A LACK OF ENERGY MEANS A LACK OF DRIVE TO GO OUT AND DO THINGS!

AND I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, AM NO LAZYBONES!
