[color=teal]Hmm.....interesting.....first of all.....Transtic, love isn't based upon age, it's based upon maturity. I am fifteen now, but when I was only ELEVEN, I was in love, yes it was love, with a girl named Ami. She died, and now I have moved on (after many a bottle of beer and whiskey, I assure you). The key was that I was mature. More mature than even my parents. Second of all, the key to a girl's heart is NOT always poetry, impressive strength, or such. Like Medra says, find some common ground, have a chat, and be a friend first. After friendship occurs, you spend more time with her, building things up and getting to know her better while giving more of yourself to her as well. When you feel that things need a boost, ask her how she feels about love, you, or something like that. Or, if you're feeling REALLY bold and you've become REALLY close to this girl, flat out tell her you like her. If you aren't really bold, just ask her to the movies. Usually one that she'd like to see. In that movie, when you feel it's right (near the middle, not too early, not too late), take her hand. When that happens, ask her if she'll be your girlfriend.[/color]

[color=teal]In the desert prison, hours after his "awakening", Blaze rocked against a wall, grasping his head.[/i] [b]Nanaki:[/b]Blaze! What's wrong? [b]Blaze:[/b]I...I can...I can see Sephiroth.....he....and Lethe...DAMNIT SHINRA! [b]Nanaki:[/b]Why damn Shinra? [b]Blaze:[/b]They created Sephiroth from my blood infused into Jenova's womb, I sense that much. Other blood was used, but mine was the base. He is my brother....yet also me. He and I share a link between Ancient brothers, though, because of our mutual abidance in Jenova's womb..... [i]A man with a gun arm approached them, raising it high.[/i] [b]Dyne:[/b]So Shinra's back in business, and I'm sane and alive. I'll join you, if you fight Sephiroth. But you have to prove who you are. Needle Gun! [i]The attack hit Blaze square in the chest, forcing him backwards slightly. His anger level, pent up from the Ultima and Shard attack, burst.[/i] [b]Blaze:[/b]RUSHING BURNER!!!! [i]The repeated attacks hit Dyne hard, breaking his own limit, as well. He held his gun up, aiming right at Nanaki.[/i] [b]Dyne:[/b]Molotov Cocktail! [i]Nanaki took the explosive laser attack, blasting Dyne with a retaliative Fire2 spell. Dyne collapsed.[/i] [b]Dyne:[/b]Alright.....Ill join. Just as long as marlene is alright after all this....[/color]

[color=teal]Well.....*runs through the list of items*....maybe the Bow and Silver Arrows.[/color]

[color=teal][i]Having rid himself of his demons, Blaze felt awakened, free, and alive. He continued to battle the Gi, watching as Nanaki and the rest of Cosmo Canyon went about their daily lives. Nanaki, too, began his training with Blaze, both becoming steadily stronger. Blaze suddenly looked to the Golden Saucer in the distance, and Nanaki followed his gaze.[/i] [b]Nanaki:[/b]Why gaze over there? [b]Blaze:[/b]I feel.....something. The same thing I felt when I first saw the resurrected Sephiroth, then again when I saw Aeris.... [b]Nanaki:[/b]But nobody died there, aside from....... [b]Blaze:[/b]What's wrong, Uncle Red? [b]Nanaki:[/b]It couldn't be Dyne......but if it is.......we have a powerful ally. [i]Blaze smiled and began preparations as Nanaki left the village in the care of his father, who, too, had been resurrected days before. Together, they set out for the Corel Mountains...[/i][/color]

[color=teal]OOC:Oh, THAT'S clever. In the previous post, I mysteriously disappear. My character wakes up with Red XIII over him, and in yourpost, you decide to pay him a visit while Sephiroth is STANDING RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU. Domon, just trust what i'm doing. I don't WANT to be found![/color]

[color=teal][i]Blaze fell from the window, his arms limp and numb. He awoke, glass shards in his back, burns from the failed Ultima along his shoulder blades, and the Muramasa somehow ended twisted in his left arm hours later. Birds twittered in the rafters above him, sunlight streamed in. Yet somehow, he wasn't in Midgar anymore. A red, wolven face loomed over him, smiling gently.[/i] [b]Nanaki:[/b]Welcome to the land of the living, Blaze Feneris. It's lucky my "Warp" materia was in a reasonable mood again. [b]Blaze:[/b]Uncle Nanaki? That you? [b]Nanaki:[/b]Yes, it is me, Blaze. Why do you keep calling me "uncle" anyway? [b]Blaze:[/b]Before I.....before I joined SOLDIER and got you kidnapped, you took care of me. [b]Nanaki:[/b]Ah, well, that doesn't make me your uncle. [i]Blaze laughed and was soon free of the blade in his arm and most of the blood that matted his body. He looked to the stars and returned to his old training pattern in the Gi Caverns.[/i] [b]Nanaki:[/b]So you feel weak again, do you? [b]Blaze:[/b]More than weak, helpless. I could have killed him, Uncle Nanaki, but I failed. A girl named Lethe got me from behind while I was fighting him..... [b]Nanaki:[/b]Lethe......I'll have to talk to her soon. She shouldn't have attacked you. We must away from here, and soon. [b]Blaze:[/b]No. We must wait, we must grow stronger. What good a husband am I if I cannot protect Sir-...I mean, if I can't protect my wife. [b]Nanaki:[/b]You love Siren, do you not? Then why hide it? [b]Blaze:[/b]Because I will never be good enough for her. She doesn't like me. How could she? I'm...I'm Jenova's real son. how could she marry, like, or even pay attention to me? I'm the cause of all of this! ALL OF IT! [i]Nanaki left Blaze to destroy the spectres and ghosts that attacked him, though most were not the spectres of the Gi.....they were ghosts within himself....within his heart...[/i] [/color]

[color=teal]*looks at the winners' names, sighs, smiles for every one who got an award, and sits down to plan out my next poem* Congrats, everybody. Thanks to all who voted for me rather needlessly. I was honored to be remembered at all by some of the people here, but I guess it was just sheer numbers against me. Congratulations, winners, and better luck next year for those of you (us) who didn't make a lasting enough mark to get an award.[/color]

[color=teal]Ack.....can't....stop.....laughing.......*grabs an inhaler and breathes* Much better. And I don't even have asthma. :D[/color]

[color=teal]If you mean aside from the Golden Sword, it's the Magic Hammer, which I think deals as much the Master Sword or the Tempered Sword.[/color]

[color=teal]I can't know, then. It could be nine, but i never got the flute on LttP/FS, just on LttP which has only eight.[/color]

[color=teal]I think it's eight.[/color]

[color=teal][i]Blaze rushed in, his claws slashing the walls. He grinned, his fangs opening cuts into his jaw, letting blood run free down his chest. He now embraced this side of him, savoring the sheer power within him. Sephiroth was nowhere to be seen, but a familiar young woman was sitting on the floor, gripping her wrists and smiling. Blaze ingnored Lethe, clenching his fist and rushing through a lab, finding the remains of more uncovered Cetra. He howled, seeing the ghastly remains of Jenova, who merely hours before had been whole again. With this sight of Blaze's mother, the fenris within slowed, transforming Blaze back into his own body. The coma was over, but Blaze had another battle to win. Sephiroth stood in front of a capsule, laughing maniacally as he stared his half-brother down.[/i] [b]Sephiroth:[/b]So, brother! We are all that is left of the Cetra. Yet you wish to kill me. [b]Blaze:[/b]I wish to give you the Hell you brought upon me! [i]Sephiroth sighed, drawing his Masamune, blade of sheer evil, as Blaze drew his Muramasa, blade of ultimate good. They charged.[/i][/color]

[color=teal]It gets tough, still we take to the street. Just some men and our will to survive. So many times, it happens too fast, you trade your fire for heat. You must strive just to remain alive. Going the distance, moving too fast. Somehow we end, lost, alone. Still we fight, ignoring the choices of the past. Completeing the tapestry of failure we have sewn. No matter what, it happens too fast, never giving a light. Keeping it real, moving us all ahead. Still we go on, ignoring the heat, living inside an ungiving fight. My comrades fall, leaving me alone, vision shifting to red. It happens so fast, I fall amidst my dreams. I never gave up, conquered the fall. My life is no longer apart at its seams. Because of courage, I have saved us all....[/color] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The story of a man who only knew how to fight, and with his gang saved his neighborhood, yet died with his friends keeping their dream from dying like they did......

[color=teal][b]Question:[/b]What is the name of the secret room in LttP and what is inside it?[/color]

[color=teal][i]Blaze leapt through Gate One of the New Midgar sublines, trashing every single ticket booth he saw. Within his own mind, Blaze was constantly battling three other selves that wanted control, that wanted to show their power. The real Blaze, tortured and writhing in agony, fought to get to his real self before his body dd something......destructive. As his body approached the Shinra building, climbing yet another wire in sector six, near a familiar, rundown mansion, it raged out of control. Randomly using fire, ice, and lightning spells from God-knows-where, his body left an easily followed path to Sephiroth. Still Blaze battled for control, yet something was hoding him back. Something about his mother.... He transformed. His body shifted, contorted, and twisted unto itself. Blaze regained control, only to lose it again to his instinctive nature in his manwolf form. He broke through the stainless steel doors with his bare claws, his Muramasa hanging limply at his side. He began to climb the stairs, while members of the new Shinra army, WARRIOR, fired at him, shot at him, and even tried to jump on him. All were thrown down the stairs.....without their throats. Blaze was raging. He wanted the blood of Sephiroth....[/i][/color]

[color=teal]Go for it, just use RP posts as well as your OOCs, please. No more OOCs, unless it has an exceptional post beneath it. And I'm sorry FLynn. I should have mentioned it, but i was going to allow a person to be Sephiroth. Ask Raquel, I told her. Anyhow, go ahead and play both if you want.[/color]

[color=teal]Ever since Ami died, and I lived, I've been obsessed with trying to see if I can or cannot die. I mean, playing chicken with trains, jumping three stories, slicing random body parts, or, more commonly, popping caffeine pills, drinking coffee, then trying to exhaust myself into a coma that'll last long enough to kill me. Of course, I stopped when I met a certain someone, who just so happens to be on these boards. Now then, that out of the way....obsessions....are sometimes necessary. I mean, if you obsess about one goal, you'll usually achieve it. Then again, they also drive people insane. Like Jaimie's obsession over Inu, or her obsession over me.......................[/color]

[color=teal]1) Shoot the statues in the eyes 2)Use hover boots to get over the lava pit, moving from platform to platform 3)Fight two Dinalfos within a time limit 4)Fight two Stalfos within the time limit Am I right?[/color]

[color=teal][i]Blaze took the shattering snowfield as his turn to attack again, this time standing before the great, iron gates that lay open, picking up alarge boulder and chucking it square into a large group of blackguards. He walked up to another boulder, picking it up, and rolling it at high speed right into a cache of cavalry officers, then a marching infantry line, and it ended at a large rock golem that turned into a large pile of rock dust. Blaze then drew out his short sword and turned to Lacroix.[/i] [b]Blaze:[/b]Might I have a drop of your blood? [b]Lacroix:[/b]Why? [b]Blaze:[/b]You both have had your summon fun, I want mine now. [b]Lacroix:[/b]Alright, but nothing too powerful. I want this to be fun. [i]Lacroix pricked his finger on the sword of the lumbering figure, who in turn pricked his own finger on the same spot. As the blood mixed, Blaze chanted a silent spell over the running, mixing blood. Soon, the blood transformed, melded, and grew. Within moments, a new demon appeared on the field. A large, horned figure shot out of the bloodportal, breathing flames lightly. Ifrit, the spirit of fire, gained a large fiery shield, then charged the oncoming army, blasting them backwards and charring a few infantrymen. Lacroix and Nepenthe looked at him sideways while Kinrade gaped.[/i] [b]Kinrade:[/b]he's fast, strong, and he knows Ifrit....a powerful ally. Something about him is more than human, elf, or lycanthropic. No mortal is allowed near Ifrit....[/color]

[color=teal][i]Blaze's body stirred. Standing up, the man walked from the forest, a look of sheer, unfettered rage rushing through his mind like blood through a dirty syringe. But it wasn't Blaze. Trapped within his own mind, Blaze wracked against the chains of his coma, while his raging, unspirited body walked maddeningly towards New Midgar with revenge as its one purpose. Through the Mythril Mines, it came to the Kalm Swamp, where the dreaded Midgar Zolom lived. The body grasped the huge serpent around its neck, hurling it into a sharp tree trunk, as Sephiroth had done. Now, all that stood between Blaze and Sephiroth was a hunk of metal called Midgar. Still, against the forces of himself, Blaze wracked. He was lost, split into four "selves" within his own body.....[/i][/color]

[color=teal][b]Name:[/b]Logan [b]Alias:[/b]Wolverine [b]Age:[/b]??? [b]Nationality:[/b]??? [b]Power:[/b]Extreme regeneration, though even limits may be attained. The power is so perfect, so seamless, it can continually regenerate his dead cells to living, preventing old age, weakness, or even sickness. Once, adamantium claws and armor covered his skeleton, jutting from his knuckles when called upon. now, however, after an incident with the metal-controlling Magneto, the adamantium was torn from his very insides. His body, used to the claws so much, regenerated them into reinforced bone and even sharper bone claws, making him disputably more powerful than before. [b]History:[/b]A loner all of his life, Wolverine traveled much, trying to discover his past. Spending time on the X-Men, he came close to death many times fighting the Sentinels, Apocalyps, and even Magneto. His real age cannot be determined because of his regenerative abilities, though it is estimated that he was born earlier than even Magneto, who had survived the Holocaust alone amongst his entire family. Wolverine now passes the time killing Prime Sentinels, bothering with not much else other than finding somebody who can actually end this torment of endless life. [b]Description:[/b]See attachment [b]Personality:[/b]Loner. He often acts out of anger or rashness, yet there is an unsettling wisdom about him.[/color]

[color=teal]She got it, but the word was "Stalfos".[/color]

[color=teal][i]Blaze sighed wantonly, his armor and short sword making him feel a lust. He looked to Lacroix, who had rejoined him at the floor. He looked up, grinning.[/i] [b]Blaze:[/b]Summon me? [b]Lacroix:[/b]Ah, and you won't bow and disappear. I hate that. Clever. And you can survive? [b]Blaze:[/b]Of course. I almost defeated the fastest swordsman in the world, I think a minor conventional army would be easy. [i]Lacroix grinned, returning to his watching point on the battlements. He raised his hand as if in summon, and Blaze took it as his signal. He bashed the doors twice, successfully scaring the troops beyond the doors, then bashing through the doors completely. He rushed the guards, smashing heads and slashing violently at anyone who came near. When it got to the point that nobody came near, he turned and sat at the entrance to The Post, grinning wildly. Lacroix again left his post at the battlements, joining Blaze on the bridge.[/i] [b]Lacroix:[/b]Interesting. That was the most entertaining show I can say I've ever seen. [b]Blaze:[/b]We ought to let the others have as much fun. [b]Lacroix:[/b]They should be, with all of the rival army's talk about the "hellspawn lion". [b]Blaze:[/b]Now I am angry. Before, I was hungry, now, I'm angry. [b]Lacroix:[/b]Why? [b]Blaze:[/b]I am no lion! I am part tiger. After our friends have had their fill, I will hunt the remainder down and slit their throats of such slander.[/color]

[color=teal]By automatic, I meant that YOU COULD NOT CHANGE THE BUTTON ASSIGNMENT. And I hven't played LoZ in four years, now matter WHAT my New Year's Resolution was. (Play every single Zelda game legallized by Miyamoto end-to-end in a single week....) Anyhow, to the question. [b]Question:[/b]Which character in OoT is found at the base of a tree,then later at the base of a tree stump. Also, what character replaces this character after you complete a part of an item quest and what is her favorite word (it seems like her favorite word to me, anyway)?[/color]

[color=teal]Sere Tuscumbia can guess. Don't worry. I know what I'm doing. Trying to drive everyone completely nuts, but that's what i always do.[/color]
