Why I'm dreading the Return of the Matrix Twins

[matrixrefugee]

I think I've said this elsewhere, but for starters, the Twins got kinda ruined for me because of a lot of their fans. Namely, the squee-gurls who write deplorable "I'm Mary Sue and I'm the Twins' girlfriend and Imma gonna save them from TEH EVOL MERV!!!!11111111" (Though heaven knows, I'd rather read a well-written Sue-fic than some of the stuff out there. Some of my best friends online are Mary Sues or play them.) About the only Twins fan I can stand is Electrify, one of my buddies in the Devil's Advocates, and he's certainly no fangurl. He's a really cool fellow.

I'm dreading the legions of squee-gurlz who are liable to come flocking to the game in droves if word gets out that the Twins are back. I mean, it'd be nice to have a *LOT* more Merv players, but I can't help thinking they'd all be the sort who just want to overthrow the Merv (I'm looking at a certain Mary Sue vampire...) just so they can save their POR TWINZIEEZ!!!11111

Plus I can't help thinking of Dean Winchester's line, "What's dead should stay dead" in last week's episode of "Supernatural".

I actually based C&P off Cain and Abel, another pair of the Lambert Wilson character's henchmen, who have a larger role in "Enter the Matrix", one of the tie-in video games, but C&P do have touches of the Twins as well.

Castor: ::Waves:: "Nah, we've been good to Julien: he's had some trouble from MR's buddy Sieges's little headspace-buddy of her own."

Julien runs by screaming, closely but teasingly pursued by a gleefully deranged-looking girl clad in a strapless black leather gown which makes her look like a member of the League of Inappropriately Dressed Knife-Throwing Assassins.

Pollux: "Looks like we better save him. Again."

Castor: "Ah let's give her a few yards more, then we'll save him."

Julien: "EEeEEEEEEEEEK!!"

Castor: "Okay, we'll save him now." ::They gallop off after Julien and the inappropriately dressed knife-throwing assassin-girl::

To be honest, I know quite a few people who've remained unaffected by the "Matrix" craze. It's a fairly small series as yet, and I was surprised at the small number of people who play the MxO, but this is actually a good thing since it makes for a tighter-knit player community. Recursion, the server I'm on has, at times, the feel of a small town where everyone knows everyone else and we're always getting into each other's business accidently or on purpose. But that's also caused some major drama-wars when someone causes trouble for someone else. Or someone starts running around turning people into vampires against their will.
