so i was sittin here thinkin

you ever see those manga that have those titles like

"I'm Being Haunted By a Handsome Ghost and Somehow We Got Engaged?!"

or like

"I Befriended a Rowdy Boy Through a Rift In Time and Now He's a Dragon?!"

or maybe

"Turns Out the Guy I'm Dating is a Famous Idol From the Future?!"

those ones

so do you ever think back on those types of manga and wonder what it'd be like to actually live in a story like that?

what would the title be?



though i guess for most of us, being here in prismatica is like a manga story on its own...

I guess it's more common than you'd think...
I try not to think about it too hard, honestly

But yeah, it sucked
A lot


[ Prisma isn't so bad, thanks ]

The high school part is the worst
They made us loop through after you finished 3 years
So I'd been a senior a few times now
We did actually get cool powers and stuff eventually
But that was like after years of repeating the same thing every day
By the second time around I started just sleeping through my classes

It was called Mobius
For the most part, people would forget the real world when they were there
So it wasn't really that hard, sticking to the script and playing along

Just like, a cool gun and the power to snap people out of their own heads when they're wrapped up in their traumas
It sounds kind of weird when I write it down like that
But it was called a Catharsis Effect, so it... helps people find catharsis, I guess

[personal profile] anemoneae 2020-09-09 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it wasn't that kind of game
But I'd want a refund too

It's kind of like if you were having an emotional breakdown, this thing would help you think clearly
It's kind of weird actually
But people trapped in this world were all people with different kinds of issues
So like if you let those issues control you, you'd turn into a weird puppet-thing called a Digihead and just lose all sense
So enough shots with our weapons helped people stop freaking out and think for themselves
It's about as weird as it sounds
anemoneae: (rueful)

no worries!

It sucked a lot, generally
But yeah it was too bad that so many people would end up brainwashed and stuff
That was one of the reasons why we were trying to shut the whole thing down

Wouldn't have made a good a book, though
Too many random battles
anemoneae: (awkward)

[personal profile] anemoneae 2020-09-16 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
Me too.

[ He wants to go back please... he doesn't want to be stuck at 18 forever. ]

You think so?
I dunno, anime aren't as long nowadays, they'd have to rush a lot...
Or maybe cut some people out


[ don't watch the Caligula anime, it's bad ]
anemoneae: (surprised)

[personal profile] anemoneae 2020-09-22 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
I mean those are gonna go on forever
But they don't tend to do it like that anymore


[ Ah yes, the days of everyone and their mom getting a 50-100+ episode anime series... ]

That's fair, I guess
If they gloss over everyone else, maybe
Haha, some of my friends would be pissed if they got written out
anemoneae: (happy)

What year are you from
Honest question


[ oof... at least they don't rewrite your story to give the player-insert main character their own weird background... ]

Yeah I have a friend like that
No offense to him
But it'd probably end up being about me and I really don't have the personality to be a main character
I'd rather leave that to someone else
