Institute people (I love you)

It's been four years. I was officially accepted into Damned on October 16, 2008, and since then I've had an amazing ride as a player, an NPC mod, a podcast host, a quotes curator, a linkateer, and an avid reader of all the awesome writing the playerbase has had to offer in all this time.

That's why it's been so hard to admit to myself lately that RP is just not fitting in to my life like it used to, and that good prose isn't coming to me as easily anymore. If it were up to me, my energy and time levels would stay pumped all the time and I would stick things out to the end here, because all you Damnedites are my sistahs and broskis forevs yo, fr srs. :( As it is, I think my RP cup is spent (at least for now), and I need to move on to focus more on things like school, work, and a growing pile of personal projects.

So... Yeah. I am dropping Scott Pilgrim and Rapunzel as well as my mod duties (although, I will still be helping the Linkateers when I can). Both characters can be assumed to have been in a deep sleep since dinner, and will have disappeared by morning. :( They both have extensive inventories, and their close CR are free to call first dibs on anything they want. If you're not sure what they have (I know their profile inventories are not the most up to date), just ask if there's a particular type of thing they have (i.e.: sentimental thing, weapon, supplies, something silly, etc.) and I can give you the closest thing to that.

How best can I express to you guys how much you all mean to me before I go, though? There are and have been so many people and things in this game that I love that I couldn't possibly mention all of them. Well, I started out expressing my excitement for the game with an Oktoberfest project, so I think it's only fitting that I go out on an Oktoberfest project. Check it.

Title: Institute People
Author: Eryn (based on the song "Internet People" by Dan Meth, who almost certainly based his on "We Didn't Start the Fire" by Billy Joel)
Beta: A little bit from Andro
Word Count: 478
Rating: PG (oh shit son, I said "shit")
Character(s): ALL OF THEM (yes, even the ones not explicitly included, and including every dropped character ever; y'all are awesome <3)
Pairing(s): ZEX/Humans, Guy/Claude, Artemis/Haku, Lelouch/Bulletin, Albedo/Nigredo, Roy/Hughes (implied)
Summary: A musical tribute to the world's greatest evil mental asylum and the patients who have frequented it over the years.
Notes: Apologies for the bad quality of the backing track. There was no instrumental version of this song, so I had to make my own – to mixed results. At least the spirit of the thing is there? ;; Just don't go listening to this on high quality sound systems or earbuds.

LYRICS

It all started with Sora and Sharingan Kid
Lord Recluse had spider legs
and the Ouran Twins played pranks
Landel bad
Mr. Radio mad
Jill is evil
(Not really)
Mark is badass

Badou Nails' nicotine addiction
You're a man now, Scar
Admiral ZEX loves all humans
Mitsukuni Hunny held a love umbrella meme
Miles Edgeworth had information
Nightshift clue -- what could it mean?

Sylphs never leave you alone
Mimics make pretty good clones
Rats, cats and tailypos
and those giant killer squirrels

Kenshin, Yuffie, piles of Claires
Guy x Claude is so there
Ophelia lost her mind and also her hair

Fanart in the Cafe
and the Damned Quotes list
We heard a lot of stories
in Oktoberfest fics

Arty Haku kissies
Schuldig has mad ESP
Homura heads up History
Lelouch and Bulletin: OTP!

CHORUS:
Institute People!
Institute People!

The clown-suited Harley who made us all grin
Straw Hat Crew shenanigans
Dahlia will do you in
Doctors galore -- Wilson, Layton, Cox, and Who
Soma's always got your back and she kicks ass too

Scarecrow and Carter are just too cute for words
Holy crap I think that might be Captain Kirk
Team Abyss is the best
Xenosaga gay incest
and Utena made Anthy a sweet-ass dress

Tiger and Bunny brought to you by pure win
Majortime bromance happening with Badd and Byrne
Kratos getting too old for this shit
S.T. is chock full of wit
Hanatarou's not a twit
Who wants a hug? It's Pyramid (Head)!

CHORUS:
Institute People!
Institute People!
Institute People, who are you?
Institute People!

Manny von Karma and his best buddy Gant
Sechs denies he's Sechsy
and all our robots
Braniac 5 learns the meaning of "fap"
The basement Coliseum is the world's biggest trap

There were some pretty boy countries and those guys from Homestuck
Kon-El can cure aquila bait - here's a hint: f***!
Roy and Hughes makin' flames
Sexy death gods are insane
Doyleton zombies and that portal maze

SCs and M-Us to make your blood curdle
Yukari makes Peter and Scott Pilgrim girls
Team Mental Quest are always strivin'
Tsubaki, Fai and Kuro spyin'
Riot gets out of control
Landel punked by General (Aguilar)!

CHORUS:
Institute People!
Institute People!
Institute People, we love you!
Institute People!

Forte always wants to fight
Sylar wants your brain all right
Renamon speaks binary
and Sam and Dean have bro times
boom goes Rapunzel's jeep
Ippo turns into a sheep
Cushion forts and pillow fights
L and Lunge: smartest guys
Facilier's the Voodoo Man
Guybrush has the best pants
Patients gettin' hurt but never
givin' up hope they can (escape)!

CHORUS:
Institute People!
Institute People!
Institute People, who are you?
Institute People!
Institute People!
Institute People!
Institute People! It's Damned, yo!
Institute People, we love you!
Institute People!

All hail Cod!

Holy shiiiiit, that is seriously awesome, thanks so much for doing this before you said goodbye! So much Damned nostalgia. *__*

As for you officially dropping, lskdfj;fglf I've already told you this elsewhere, but you know I'm going to miss you a ton. You're a great player and all of your characters over the years have been fucking awesome. IT'S SERIOUSLY AN END OF AN ERA WITH YOUR PASSING. But it was amazing while it lasted. ♥

I'd love to have Tsubaki keep a little memento of Rapunzel, just something to remember all the fun (and crazy) times they had! Don't worry about the substantial items, though, I'm sure other there are other people who might want those more. :3
