Yo, cedaridge_city mods, I'm ruefus. I plan to make a real journal for Rufus Shinra as well, if you're interested.

( Application: )

Been a long time... I'm not gonna wipe out the old rp stuff here, because I might want to go back and read it, you know? Anyway... Don't look at that. You'll get confused.

((Sorry I took so long again...))


Pandora's Box

Slade stared at the box, wondering once again what was inside... his scans had indicated some unknown slightly radioactive element. Other than that, it was an enigma.

Several times he had almost opened it, knowing that whatever it was couldn't really hurt him.. but he had this strange nagging feeling that even if it caused him no direct or lasting harm, the inconvenience would be extreme.

So he sat, and he stared, oddly obsessed with the thing... and his mind turned to other obsessions, neglected of late.

The box floated into the air of it's own volition and began to pulse with light... before Slade could even more than register this phenomena, the box exploded, bathing him in radiation...


.. all was dark for an unknown length of time...

((Since we seem to have reached a consensus that we put aside the serious main rp for now, I'd like to put forward a goofy joke rp.. since I'm kinda awake right now... Ah, and Robin... if some of the ideas in this look familiar, it's because the basic idea is from 'Better Angels'...))

( All I Want For Christmas )

((Oooookay... it's been a while, but I trust you all remember what's been going on? This bit happens after Speedy has been captured in Steel City, on the way back to the Institute... hopefully, this, along with Starfire's capture by party's unknown *smirk* will help jump-start us again.

Alright, this is a bit confusing at the beginning, but they are in the weird underground transport chamber that Slade used when he 'stole' Robin in the first place...))


( **AFTER THE 'RAID' ON TTE** )

((Go figure... told you we were alike, Robin.))

( Results )

((Okay, here's a bit more... it links up to the current plot [finally]... As always, Robin wrote what Robin says, and vice versa...))

( The Man Behind The Mask Part Four )

((You know you love it...

( The Man Behind The Mask Part 3 )

... I swear... we'll get to the real plot stuff soon. Just trying to give you a little background on the plan... not that you can use it, of course.))

((The shocking continuation... of that thing I posted yesterday! As always, I wrote what I wrote, and Robin wrote what he wrote...

( The Man Behind The Mask Part 2 )

...
Curiouser and curiouser... What will happen next? Find out tomorrow on the shocking continuation of this continuation!!))

((It has happened again... Robin and I just can't stay out of the game. ^__^ I'm sure you're all bursting to know where they've run off to. No, not the Hamptons... *shakes head* Ah, just read it already... As always, everything Robin says/does was written by Robin, and vice versa...

( The Man Behind The Mask... )

... tune in tomorrow for the shocking... continuation... ah, dammit...))

((There are lots of things I should be doing right now... okay, so like two: Eating [a'cause I'm hungry...] and writing... I did some earlier BB, I swear!! But, instead, I am doin this... *sigh*...

( I'ma goin' crazy... )

... dammit... I'm still bored...))

Well... all you guys have theme songs, why not me?

( Behind_Blue_Eyes )

Anyway, this fits Slade so well, especially if you've read the comics along with watching the show. Thanks to BB, I'm getting that chance... ^__^

((Another bit of back-role-playing, if you will. Robin and I were talking in AIM, and this happened... the note mentioned can be found in Robin's lj entry 'Personal Demons'. Again, everything said by *Robin* was written by *Robin*, and vice versa...

This began as many things do... with a cordial greeting...))


"Good evening, Robin."


( Read_on )

((Robin and I were just messing around in AIM earlier, and this happened... heh... This happens before the RP started, and serves to explain why Robin suddenly fell back into his Slade obsession so strongly... I've edited it for spelling, punctuation, and continuity, and filled any little gaps that I found, but other than that, it's 'as is'... obviously, everything that *Robin* says was written by *Robin*, and vice versa. :) As far as the setting goes, I figure it's just an abandoned lot or roof top...))


"Why, hello, Robin." Slade said lightly, stepping out of the shadows, moonlight glinting off his mask.

"Slade." Robin glared at him in the gloom, shifting into a battle stance without thinking.

"*tsk tsk*... Out alone? So strange to see you without your little Titan posse."

"Why does that matter to you? I needed some time to think, that's all. And I'm never alone, my friends will always be there to help."

"I think not, Robin... but you're right about one thing. You're never alone."

"Just what are you getting at?"

Slade shook his head. "Really, Robin... you're usually much brighter than this..."

Robin ignored the comment, trying not to allow himself to be baited. "I don't have time for you. Why don't you just admit you're never going to win and leave me...us alone."

Slade smiled behind his mask and leaned forward as though to impart some great secret... "Never, Robin... never is a very long time."
