[THE FOLLOWING CONVERSATION TOOK PLACE BETWEEN 3 PM AND 4 PM.]
Brooke: *impatiently taps foot*
Mun: Look, I get it.
Brooke: Mm, I really don't think'ya do.
Mun: It's just...nothing's there. I can't force it.
Brooke: Oh, please. You know what I do when "nothing's there?"
Mun: Look, as much as I love the Analogies of the Fashion Designer, I don't really get that whole world, you know? I buy my purses from Target.
Brooke: I do whatever comes to mind. Maybe the color's off, maybe I don't really know what fabric to use...
Mun: *groan*
Brooke: ...But I keep at it until it looks okay, just so I'm doing something. And in the end, yeah, maybe I have a really unfortunate looking last-season dress...with, like, ugly little yellow bows or something...
Mun: ...Uh huh...?
Brooke: Well...you know. *Bites her lip, wrings her hand in frustration* It still looks completely hot on me, you know? No matter how ugly it is! Get it?
Mun: Your show sucks.
Brooke: I...excuse me?
Mun: Your show. God, I hate that show. I mean, no offense.
Brooke: *arches one delicately waxed eyebrow* Go on, monkey...
Mun: It should have finished after the fourth season. It's just...not good. Not good at all. The only reason I watch that crap is for your character.
Brooke: Ohh, I see. You mean it should have ended with the group graduating from High School...
Mun: Right! Exactly.
Brooke: Before that whole, you know, going off into the real world and experiencing problems other than lame triangles of doom?
Mun: Uh...
Brooke: And right before Brooke goes off and actually learns something about herself and experiences probably the worst horror of her life and grows even stronger as a person?
Mun: Point taken.
Brooke: Uh huh.
Mun: I just mean, the whole reason I made you AU is so you could be away from that horrible canon. Where you could meet people, new people, far more interesting people like Rachel, Billy, Pepper...and hello, Barney, for Christ's sake! But other than the fashion designing plot, One Tree Hill is content to stick you with Julian and GOD KNOWS what's going to happen next season...
Brooke: Oh, God. I'm actually getting some? For shame! I mean, after my reign as slutty cheerleader in high school, I was getting used to my mature and celibate lifestyle...
Mun: I need something. I can't just force you along until something comes to me. And I certainly can't just ignore you.
Brooke: Like I'd let you...
Mun: So just hold off, for a little. Let me get some writing out. I'll use you sparingly. Don't jump into anything big without the intent to see it through. I don't want to use you for a few months just to shut you up again.
Brooke: Oh, like last time?
Mun: So...agreed?
Brooke: I miss my friends. Do they even know my name anymore? I mean, do they think I was abducted by aliens or took some month-long retreat in the desert or what? DID THEY ALREADY GO TO VEGAS WITHOUT ME?!?
Mun: *shrug*
Brooke: Whatever. Consider me temporarily laid off.
Mun: Just for a while.
Brooke: Bitch.
I would love nothing more than to bring Brooke Davis back into the fold of virtual RP...but I think I shot myself in the foot with the hiatuses anyway... Couple that with a lack of canon support, which I loathe anyway, except for some relationship backbone...and a general "WTF DO I DO WITH YOU?"... I think it's time I just officially announce that clearly, Brooke Davis is MIA.
I don't wanna shelve her. I love her so. So I'll just consider her pouting on a couch in the corner. For RP purposes...I'm gonna say she's living in Paris for the past few months...business venturing. The one thing I miss most is interacting with the wonderful people who've let Brooke into their lives so far, so if she's EVER needed, she'll be there in a second. It's just...prompting has been really tough.
<3 My love.
