I've been wondering a lot about Carson, lately.
It's odd, I guess. There isn't really too much to wonder, I don't think. He's the same amazing Muse to me that he's ever been, he sticks around, he dances-- heck, I've been working on quasi-choreography and he's been helping me with it. I make sure to stretch and I see him smile in the mornings when I get breakfast and tea and play whatever music strikes my fancy...
But I just... wonder. Maybe just 'cause he's been mindhopping a bit. Heck knows he went ahead and popped in a dream of Minsky's a couple weeks back. And... maybe it's just me wondering. I didn't expect a Muse who's.. well, let's face it, so old to grow up with me like he is. But I don't think he's scared anymore. Not often, anyway... he watches things with a light to silver eyes and he doesn't let me hear all of his thoughts, anymore. He doesn't pain much, and he goes outside in the sunshine which I take to mean he's been feeding accordingly...
And yet I'm still left here lingering on him. Just... thoughts on him. Curious for no reason at all. He... seems so strong now. A deeper sort of strong, not just like he can hold through while breaking apart inside, it's an... honest-to-god happy and strong again.
...maybe I just don't know what he thinks of it all, anymore. Neh.
Sidenote, have some memes, humans~
1. Choose a few of your own characters. Five at the most.
2. Make them answer the following questions
...I have way too many options. lD;; UH... Well, after a bit of mulling over it, I'm kicking up my count to four! My OC's, Carson and Lee, as well as my lazymuse Ratchet and my prophet Waka~
A. How old are you?
Lee: *grins, dangerously* It's impolite to ask that sort of thing of us women! Don't you think so, Kenshin~?
Waka: Nownow, cherie, there's no need to be so jealous over appearances~ ♥
Carson: Figures you'd both start acting impossible this early in the questions. *pokes Lee in good humor*
Waka: Excusez-moi? She started it.
Lee: And I'll finish it for both of you geezers. *pokes him back, grin tilted*
Carson: ...geezer. Didn't I get called that the last time we did this meme?
Ratchet: Oh for blarg's sake-- Eighteen! *raises his hand and waves it* Since you all can't seem t'answer the darned question...
Carson: *shakes his head* Well... the exact date is impossible for me to know. But... somewhere around the range of two thousand and eighty?
Waka: I, too, have lost count. Somewhere along the lines of two-hundred and fifty or so.
Lee: Like I said, geezers~ And I shall finish, with the ripe, lovely age of seven-hundred and forty three~
B. Height?
Carson: Six-foot two.
Lee: I love you tall people. <3 Five-foot one and three quarters.
Waka: One hundred and seventy-seven centimeters.
Ratchet: ...uh, great. And for the kid whose mind you're in who, y'know, lives on the crazy continent that doesn't use metric?
Waka: ...very well. A little under five-foot ten.
Ratchet: Awesome. Four-foot three right 'ere~!
C. Got any bad habits?
Lee: *dissinterested* Falling for tall gentlemen who have no interest in me.
Carson: ...Mifune Lee...
Lee: ...fine. Booping the noses of said gentlemen. ♥
Ratchet: *chuckles, rubbing the back of his neck* I uh... have a habit a' making things 'splode on me?
Waka: Better that than to make a habit of lying?
Ratchet: Didn't we letcha do this meme on the condition you'd keep the angst toned down? Hell, yer takin' vamprude's job.
Carson: *laughs, gently* I... have a habit putting a little much curry in my cooking.
Lee: A little?
Carson: Well... ♥
D. You a virgin?
Lee: Pffffffffffff... *giggles uncontrollably*
Ratchet: ...yeah, s'what I thought. Uh... that's a. Er. Yesoverhere? ;;
Waka: Same.
Ratchet: ...EH? Didn't you... wasn't there a thing with Evil McDark where you, uh--
Lee: Mind rape doesn't count, dorkbutt. ♥
Waka: ...w-what she said. ;
Carson: *shakes head, again, gently* I'd have to say no to that one.
E. Who is your mate/spouse?
Lee: *evenly* I have none.
Ratchet: ...well, great. That was abrupt.
Waka: *giggles, gently* Mo rún, tá sé mo mhíle grá~
Ratchet: ...ffskdl ARG, you people are your gibberish! ;;
Lee: That just means he's in love, dear~
Ratchet: ...so what, when I get a true love, I'll end up spoutin' moonspeak?
Carson: *chuckles* Wi mri haty s'daw, Kokueimai~
Ratchet: ...fdasjkl UGH YOU PEOPLE. *flails*
F. Have any kids?
All: *with varying levels of horror and/or ambivilence* No.
G. Favorite food?
Carson: Curry.
Lee: You could tell that if you took one step into our kitchen.
Carson: Not my fault that your rice cannot overpower the aroma, Mifune Lee.
Lee: ..well there you have it. Our favorite food in a nutshell.
Ratchet: ...wait, rice? But that's got like, no flavor!
Lee: *slight glare*
Ratchet: ...right. Burgers~!
Waka: *giggles* I... admire jasmine-green tea, mostly. Or a milk-tea variant.
Ratchet: Butdude-- that isn't food! Oo;
Waka: But it is what I most enjoy~ ^.~
Lee: And you think I'm bad. ♥
H. Favorite ice cream flavor?
Waka: To be honest, I prefer sorbet. Lemon, preferably. ♥
Lee: I dunno... strawberry ice cream...♥
Ratchet: I like chocolate. >.>
Lee: Or green-tea ice cream~?
Waka: ...well, now that...~
Carson: *chuckles* Cardamom is choice, but mango and vanilla are also quite divine.
I. Killed anyone?
Waka: ...
Ratchet: What'd I tell ya? Prettyboy's takin' Vamprude's job!
Carson: He can have it if he wants, though I wouldn't recommend it...
Lee: *rolls eyes* Not that I can think of. But I'm sure I had good reason, if I did.
Carson: I... shall pass on this question.
Ratchet: Is that fair?
Carson: *glances at Waka*
Ratchet: ...eh, whatever. ; I defeated some bad guys, does that count? ;
J. Hate anyone?
Waka: . . .
Carson: ...these last questions are always the hardest, aren't they?
Waka: Oh. I simply am unsure that the subject of my contempt could be called a someone. An essence, maybe. Necessity. And not sure if love and hate can so closely exist in the same breath....
Lee: Mmf.
Ratchet: Aw heck... uh... ...hate's a strong word but... if I could kick someone's ass... Th' Zoni.
Carson: ...I suppose that's some form of an answer.
Lee: I hate the cruelty of people. That is all.
Carson: I have to agree with Lee, there.
K. Any secrets?
Lee: Plenty~
Waka: And you haven't the permission to hear them~
Carson: Here here~
Ratchet: ...aw, WHAT? I'm the only un-mysterious critter in this head? Forblarg'ssake...
L. Love anyone?
Lee: ...someone else needs to answer this question.
Carson: *pokes Lee, making her squirm and glare*
Ratchet: Uh... no one I can think of? 'Less you're talking platonic friendship-buddy sorta thing, in which case I'd say Cla--
Waka: I have a feeling it's more than you're letting on~
Ratchet: *shuts his mouth*
Waka: Oh and I... I would have to say so, y-yes~
Carson: Too shy to say though. Imaginable. I daresay it took me decent time to terms with how hopeless I am for a Shadow Kokueimai Evans... ♥
Waka: And you, Lee-san, are still refraining from speaking on your affections for Carson and Keiun.
Lee: *relieved, momentarily* Ah, yes.
Waka: ...♥
Lee: ... *blithers* YOU-- *bowls Carson and Ratchet both over as she runs after Waka, fangs bared*
Ratchet: ...man, I've been idle too long, huh?
Carson: *chuckles*
