How about an event?

Fourth wall? What fourth wall?

Suddenly, characters are aware. Of what? Of everything. They know they come from a book, game, anime, what have you; they know they're being played badly by their muns; they know that hey, you're just doing this to embarrass me, aren't you? So better watch out; characters are busting through that fourth wall! Hopefully they can handle the knowledge... and hopefully you can handle your character.

I mean, no offense, Dojima-san, but you're not really my standard type, you know?

Pull in some of that beer belly and clean up a bit, and it might be better.

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

Hey, back at you. Fix that hair, get a decent outfit or somethin'...

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah?! Y-you try getting over your wife!

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

W-what!? That's uncalled for! Hey, Adachi-mun, you should put this guy on a leash!

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

I'm not into that kind of play, Dojima-san. No way this bitch is going to manage something like that.

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

That's not what I... ugh.

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

But if you are...well, not like I'm judging or anything.

[He's totally judging.]

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

Yeah, like you'd mi... Like she'd mind.

[A vague motion above Adachi, as though... Endy is floating up there, or something, managing the puppet strings.]

Whatever, that's not happening.

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

Hey, yours would mind even less. Do we have to mention the cat ears, and the hugging event, and the-

[Oh the list is very long.]

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

And what about the dog ears, and nice version of you, and-

[Hey, he's got a list too, y'know.]

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

[Adachi interrupts him.]

Those are flukes!

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

I think you're just making excuses.

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

I think you're just trying to change the subject, fruitcake.

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

You make it sound like I'm the only one guilty here.

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

...Well, I guess you've got a point there. It's all the guy pullin' your strings. I don't think you could really be that aggressive on your own.

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

What do you mean I couldn't b-!

...

No, wait. I'm not falling for that.

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

[You bet he's laughing.]

Hook, line and sinker much?

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

Yeah, shut it.

[Have an ol' classic smack upside the head.]

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

Ow, ow, ow! Watch it! I just suffered some recent abuse there!

I kept on saying it was a concussion, but they just passed it off as a bump!

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

That wasn't even real, remember?

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

You try saying it's not real when you've got a welt on the back of your skull!

[Looks like the melodramatics were real.]

And here you are, just making it worse with your smacking..

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

Well, fine, I guess it was sort of real. We were played into doing that...

Anyway, your whining is the same either way.

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

Who's whining! No one's whining, you old geezer!

[juneslater.livejournal.com]

[All he hears is "yap yap yap."]

[nowheresman.livejournal.com]

[That might be because that's all he's saying.]

Look, at least I take care of Nanako-chan sometimes.

[Oooh, low blow.]
