[color=royal blue]The new post icons are making me diiiiiizzy....:worried: :worried: :worried: This skin mostly matches the OB banner (which I :luv:!), but some of the colors still seem a bit off. And the overall theme seems overly...technical to me, if that makes sense. *shrugs* I just visit here. Whatever skin's on's pretty much ok with me. Auron: *sarcastic* So glad we have your approval. Hush you![/color]

[QUOTE][B][color=crimson][url=http://www.geocities.com/sia1912/avatars.html]Duh[/url]. Doesnt anyone go to Otaku Pike anymore?[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] [color=royal blue]*coughs in an amused way* Silly. Those avies have been with us for [i]forever and a day.[/i] I'm talking about some recent ones. Below are just a few of some of the ones I've made. Nothing major, just chara ones.[/color]

[color=royal blue]*backs away from Des nervously* Heh. OK, [b]Question![/b] What must you do to make Redead freeze? To make Gibdos dance?[/color]

[color=royal blue]Out of curiosity, what happened to all the member made ones? I remember the big announcement about them...I remember making at least 60+ for it and sending them to James-- --and that's it? No offense, Jamesy, but where are they? (Heh, never mind the fact that I can pull the ones I want on with my own Avatar options, but [i]still--[/i]) *is getting whiney, is dragged off to the insane sanctuary*[/color]

[color=royal blue]What drives me bonkers is when someone writes my name--and they always put "Lynn" instead of "Lyn". Or "Lin" instead of "Lyn". It's Lyn. See? *points to S/N* Heh.[/color]

[color=royal blue]The layout matches the name. EX: Tail Cave. The dungeon layout is modeled in the shape of a tail (more like a worm to me, but heh). Face Shrine: Face Bottle Grotto/Grove: Like a bottle. etc etc etc *grins*[/color]

[color=royal blue]In all honesty, you should ALWAYS keep your Aeons in Overdrive. I know that, if my Aeons use it for any reason, I try to fill it up again ASAP. Same goes for Yuna--I try to make sure she is always ready to cast Grand Summon if needed (though filling her Overdrive gauge tends to be a little trickier). Grand Summon = any one Aeon being able to use their Overdrive instantly. And if they are already at Overdrive, using it in Grand Summon will NOT use the one you already had ready. So Grand Summon not only equals an Aeon using their Overdrive instantly, but using it TWICE, if you plan accordingly. Duh duh info there, but just thought I'd share.[/color]

[color=royal blue]Let's see--I've got a TERRIBLE memory, yet I can remember anything that happens in the 24 hour period I am in. 'Course, as soon as the day is gone, I forget it. :bluesweat I'm known as the Princess of Sound Effects. My multimedia teachers think I could get a job just making sound effects. Weird. Betcha didn't know THAT one! Heh. I also tend to enjoy myself more in my video game and anime/cartoon worlds than I usually do in real life. Weird? Or sad? *grins at Lady K*[/color]

[color=royal blue]A prequel about Seph. At first, I liked the idea a lot...but the more I think about it... For those of us who played FF7, we KNOW what happens to Sephiroth. IF there was a prequel about his past, FF7 would affect it in one of two ways--overwhelming sympathy for him because we know what happens, or a complete turnoff, because we know what happens. My personal preference aside (it would still be nice to see some history to Seph, regardless), it seems that a potential pre/sequel would focus more on the LifeStream and Mako. JENOVA's first approach to the planet. And the likelihood of the game being anywhere near the timeline of FF7's or using the same characters is pretty low. Putting the game too close to FF7 would ruin it (not IMO, but there it is for ya, according to how I see games).[/color]

[COLOR=royalblue]There is a pattern to Seymour's multi-magic--watch it carefully, and you will know which NulMagic to use next. I want to say it's something along the line of Watera-Fira-Blizzara-Thundara...but don't take my word for it. It's been a while since I last played. [/COLOR]

[color=royal blue]Bah, screw Lulu's Overdrive. I was the MASTER at spinning the sticks on the 64 for Mario Party, and figured it would carry over to FFX. Whether I was wrong or not...well, it irritates me that I could never do more than 7 or 8 spins. Ah, there's more than one kind of Wakka Overdrive? Yeah. Tell me there's another way to get them than playing that god-awful Blitzball.[/color]

[color=royal blue]I've done like everyone else--kept the original names (usually 2nd time around), name them their true names if they had them (2nd time, or if renamer option available), and even named them after other people. What always amused me was how I would name a character after someone I knew because the two looked the same. Then the game character would proceed to act completely opposite of the person I named him/her after. I would keep staring at the screen, saying, "Hey, they don't really act like [i]that[/i]!" :rolleyes: [/color]

[COLOR=royalblue]*looks at Shaun's last paragraph* No comment. :p [b]Who are you in your own mind?[/b] Believe it or not, that's a tough one. I consider myself a thoughtful person, passionate in my faith, and rather eccentric. Marching to the beat of a different drummer. I think of myself as a lot smarter than I let on. I also know that I make a better follower than a leader. I am an artist with a mission of telling a story. And a fanatic of great animated shows. I'm quite lazy when no one's looking, but if someone is, I work hard to make a show of being a "good person". [b]How others see me[/b] I hate second guessing others. It's almost always negative. I think people tend to see me as a goofy, lovable, yet loyal hard worker. Though I'm not the best advice giver. I'm just sorta there. Someone who can always do the grunt work. XP [b]How I wish others would see me[/b] Like many said, I don't want too much to change. Though I do wish people would see me as a great listener of problems, even if I can't give advice. I wish they would see that, when I seem to be lost in space, I'm in the middle of deep thinking, not daydreaming. And I want them to see me as someone who's tactfully honest, if not bluntly honest. I don't want them to think of me as just there, but rather, someone who deserves the same amount of respect they are getting from me. And DEFINITELY not as someone to be walked all over. *steps down from her soapbox* Heh.[/COLOR]

[color=teal]I can only pull off 7 or 8 spins--frankly, I don't think it's worth it. The individual spells seems weaker when used in the Overdrive...I dunno why. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you match up all the images in Wakka's overdrive slots, does that mean he attacks the entire enemy group?[/color]

*stretches her wings beneath her satin bunny suit* Waiting for the games to begin....*wiggles her tail thoughtfully*

Wet Dawn! That one ROX! Heh, I always wondered if people liked images like that--I know I do.

*hugs Auron plushie and smiles softly at Juu* Sometimes I wonder if I would have turned out different if this had never happened...but thank you all again for listening. Like I told Sara earlier this evening, if I had known it would have made me felt this lighter...freer...without the fear of being rejected...I would have spoken sooner.

We need to save our energy and creativity for the RPGame, you guys--take it easy! Hades, we need to start this soon. Peeps are "chomping at the bit", as it were.

I'm not out to get revenge on my uncle for what he did...I think all I really wanted was to finally get this out. Which I have. And it HAS helped a lot. The nightmares are still an issue for me, but I'll take your advice about seeing my doctor about it. Thank you all for reading and responding. This, like I said, has helped me tremendously.

What would you do/say/think if someone you knew was sexually abused by one of their relatives? I'm going to come out and say it--when I was 9, I was sexually abused by my uncle. It was the worst time of my life. One I thought I forgot. But after my uncle passed away last year, and everyone kept talking about how WONDERFUL he was, I just...I couldn't...it was beyond my capacity to handle it. So why didn't I tell anyone when it happened? My uncle threatened to break apart my family if I did. My mom and I (a first marriage kid) were very poor and the only family we had was what mom married into. It would break my mom's heart if we were kicked out of the family. Also, both my parents were retailers, working all sorts of weird hours. My uncle always knew when he could come over--friends weren't allowed, since I was alone, but relatives were. I tried to tell my mom once; she thought I was joking. When I persisted, she accused me of lying and grounded me. I didn't feel comfortable enough to talk to my stepdad about his brother's actions. Fortunately, when my younger brother was old enough to watch himself, I took every oppurtunity to avoid my uncle, to be busy doing something for the church or whatnot. So after a year's worth of this, my uncle finally left me alone. I bring this up because, ever since my uncle died, I keep having nightmares that keep dredging up the horrible memories. And I keep seeing other people I care about, watching...being disgusted, ashamed, not helping me...And I still can't tell. Because Mom just wrote a book in honor of my uncle. She loved him and loves him dearly. If I try to tell her [i]now[/i], I've got a good chance of being disowned. To my closest AIM buddies: this is what I mean about the secret that would follow me to the grave, but I just couldn't hold it in anymore. Even if I can't tell my family, my church (my uncle donated a LOT to the church), or anyone, I felt I could still tell my online family. I don't know if you who read this will be disgusted/ashamed/or whatever. I just had to get this out after all these years. This was very difficult for me to write, but I already feel my soul getting lighter for it.

*dances around naked in the snow outside* Auron: KEHHO! Me: What? Auron: For Yevon's sake, put something on! *a few moments later, Kehho trots out in her satin bunny suit from Fredricks of Hollywood* Me: Better? Auron: :therock:

How many more peeps we need for this? And is the person who won last time ensured not to win this time?

Ah, the memories...^^ Marill: Pikablu Drowzee: Sleepy Snorlax: Garfield Oddish: OddRaddish Ekans: Viper Grass Starter: Floras Water Starter: Aquas Fire Starter: Pyras Ampharos: Amphy Gastly: Ghastly Nidoran (m): PoisonKing Nidoran (f): LadyPoison Mew: Myuu Mewtwo: Myuutwo Magikarp/Gyarados: Leviathan Snubble: Snarl Onix: Onyx I always tried to get the meaning of the name in the nickname, if I could.

I must be missing that summon pic then, sage. Remember how I told you that page was cut off half way? Heh, I was HOPING I could make a pose piccie and a fight piccie for each character, but my time is a lot shorter than I thought. :bawl: Anyways, did you get my email?

sage, I can definitely get a few more female characters done today or tonight. I also plan to start inking some of these pics real soon and send them to you. I still need someone to help in the aspect of drawing males--I'm terrible at it. -_- Please, someone reply soon (if ssj3 is not interested...)!!! BTW, I think the summons are fine as they are--plus, I don't want the character drawings for my comic to spill over into FFU. Wouldn't look good on my part.
