saints' asgard: the third ⚜ voice/action;

[bosses]

Shaundi, Kinzie, and Gat.

Gods sure have a fuckin' funny way of deciding who stays and who goes.

Fuck your shit. I'm starting to think with how fickle you shits are, this whole thing's just some made up waste of my damn time.

[Anyone who'd like to encounter the Boss - he is in the Baldr district, looking rather... well, not upset, exactly. Pensive. (He doesn't show grief the way a lot of people do.)]

Problem, sir?

[voice]

[failures]

You lose some friends too?

[Larry didn't even think he'd have to be dealing with this issue so soon.]

[parasiteye]

Hey--you're that guy Zimos works for aren't you? Or something.

[bosses]

You know the story with this place, I guess.

[One of those weird-text whatevers. Okay, he'll deal.]

The gods don't seem to do much fuckin' explaining what they do. Starting to piss me off.

voice;

[bosses]

Somethin' like that.

[Kinzie and Shaundi - well, that's not as big a loss. Gat is a bigger loss just because when (not if; when) he goes home, Kinzie and Shaundi will still be there.

Gat won't.

How much this is frustrating him is only bleeding into his voice a little.]

[aggrievance]

Irritating, yes, but it's simply par for the course for omnipresent beings not to explain their ulterior motives to mere mortals.
Regardless, consider my sympathies given.

[zimos]

So it's just the two of us? Motherfucker.

[While Zimos isn't nearly as attached to Shaundi and Gat, he's still pretty bummed to see them gone.]

Maybe they'll clean shit up in Steelport while we're gone. Negotiate some shit with the Mayor.

[bosses]

You always write like that, kid?

[Purple is a good choice, though. Or maybe it's pink. It's sort of a more purplish pink. The point is that he's okay with that.

The fact that she's really formal is a little annoying, but nothing he can't deal with - much better than, well.

Troll quirks. Even if he doesn't know them as such.]

[bosses]

Yeah. Kaz, right?

[The Boss has many faults. Being unaware is not one of them.]

audio; filtered;

[parasiteye]

Yep. You in charge of everything then?

[bosses]

[... Z. You're not quite understanding here, and the Boss is pissed about it.]

Gat is fucking dead. There's no cleaning up shit. From what everyone's said, you go back to the way shit was before you left.

[bosses]

Fuckin' right I am.

[parasiteye]

So...what, you're the king of pimps or you get other stuff done too?

[video] Yes this is going to go well

[suppressthedark]

Like the gods really care how you feel.

[HI HE'S NOT BITTER. NOPE. More just thinking they're colossal lazy idiots. Also look at this grumpy teenager with the bright hair. There's no way that could be his natural hair color.]

[aggrievance]

[Purple is the best choice.]

Not always.
But this was my preferred aesthetic choice at home. It provides some modicum of comfort.
Unless you're referring to my word choice.

[bosses]

Z is the king of pimps. Shaundi is -- was -- the queen of drugs. Kinzie was the queen of technological shit I don't get.

I'm like the fuckin' emperor.

[parasiteye]

--Shit. Your dealer's gone???

audio; filtered;

[bosses]

Do not fucking insult Shaundi by calling her a "dealer".

[Even when his Saints aren't here he's defensive of them, okay. Shaundi is a drug expert, not just some chick who has connections and gets high.

Okay so she's MOSTLY that but still.]

video; nothing can go wrong

[bosses]

I don't think they do. They're gonna when I'm fuckin' done with those shits.

[(Un?)fortunately for Ichigo, the Boss is not too put off by hair color now, after Miss I Think I'm A Pony, Miss Space Alien Shit, and Mister Mascot.]

audio; filtered;

[parasiteye]

Okay so then what the fuck do I call your girl that deals drugs?

video;

[suppressthedark]

[He snorts.]

Yeah, if you can get them to appear for you.

voice;

[failures]

It sucks. 'specially when they just got here, too.

[Larry's friends aren't quite in the same situation, but he's left wondering about his best friend. Said friend was from the future...and now Larry's left wondering what really did happen to him then.]

[bosses]

Both of them, I guess.

[Purple is the best choice. After all, dude is wearing a purple suit. And so would the rest of the Saints if he could get them to listen.]

voice;

[bosses]

Or when they were dead.

[...he sounds even more pissed than usual about this.]

[bosses]

Have you tried "Shaundi"?
