Renewing my objection to this bullshit code name.

[brushoff]

Fussy, fussy, fussy! Whining about it will only make the name stick harder, you know.

[sleight_of_hand]

It's still bullshit and entirely undeserved.

[brushoff]

And so you complain about it. It's just a name. That which we call a rose might still smell as sweet.

[sleight_of_hand]

...............

What?

Don't wax poetry at me.

[ That is totally not how that saying goes. ]

It's still a shitty name, no matter which way you pronounce it.

[brushoff]

SHAKESPEARE. I'm waxing Shakespeare because I'm Oberon.

[ isn't that obvious???? ]

And if you don't like it then either petition our 'gracious' hosts to change it, give yourself a nickname, or toss off the mask and reveal your true name to us. You've got options, you know.

[sleight_of_hand]

Dude, Shakespeare is not, nor was ever cool.

[ Nerd. ]

Also, there's a lot wrong with all of that:
1. Our illustrious leader would just come up with an even more asinine nick name.
2. If I was good at giving myself nicknames, I'd've come up with an alter ego for myself.
3. Like hell I'm trusting you crazies with my actual name right off the bat.

[brushoff]

In that case, the duty falls to me to give you a nickname! If I'm Oberon, then I shall need a Titania--who I've already picked by the way, don't get any ideas.

What about Cobweb?

[sleight_of_hand]

I'm a guy, why the hell would I want to be anyone's Titania.

And no. No bugs. Nothing bugs.

[brushoff]

Now how was I to know that, dear Uranus? Perhaps you're a bit rubbish at the secret thing. Two may keep counsel, putting one away, but it seems in this case one can't keep counsel in the first place.

As for the nickname, Peaseblossom it is!

[sleight_of_hand]

Oh yeah, good luck picking one dude out in the middle of however many guys are here. If you manage to pull that off then you deserve figuring me out.

And what the hell is a peaseblossom????

[brushoff]

You underestimate my powers of deduction! I'll find you out soon enough.

[ spoilers: Dorian has no powers of deduction. He is just 100% being a shit. ]

And it's a bit of an archaic term for the flower of a pea plant.

[sleight_of_hand]

Right. Good luck with that.

And pass.

[brushoff]

Well your only other options are Moth and Mustardseed so you've got to pick one of those.

[sleight_of_hand]

Uh, no? I don't have to chose any of your lame nicknames.

[brushoff]

Methinks Peaseblossom doth protest too much.

[sleight_of_hand]

Oh shut up, Oby. You're getting annoying.

[brushoff]

Funny, I've heard that before.

[hostage]

You're welcome.

Not here

[High fives Jesse.]

[sleight_of_hand]

It wasn't a thank you!

[dun_moch]

Uranus is a powerful god in the mythology of Earth. Perhaps you received your title as a form of praise.

[Or not.]

[sleight_of_hand]

[ ...give him a moment to look this up; he barely knows his own Persona's mythology, okay? ]

...oh.

[ ...and a moment more... ]

Oooooookaaaaaaay, I'm not reading more than that. Why is some form of castration always involved in these myths!?

[dun_moch]

Do not fear, Uranus. There is no reason to believe you will meet with the same fate as your namesake.

[sleight_of_hand]

Somehow that doesn't reassure me.

At all.
