OOC: Nobody wants it to go, so it can be revived. Free some Org. characters that belonged to RPers who don't come anymore (except for Nymph, I hear she might come back as she's just swamped with school work and life). Might be more active, I guess. "Triple cheese pepperoni pizza, please," Axel said to the sort of porky man on the counter as they came in to Twilight Town's local pizzeria, the bell on top of the door ringing at their entrance. He swiftly made his order the moment he laid his eyes on anyone working. "Didn't you mean double? Why triple?" Roxas asked, not needing to really, as he didn't mind triple cheese, but he wondered if there was even a triple cheese possible. Now they probably had to make a triple cheese pizza, as the highest was double, thus, it will last longer to eat as they cook. He didn't want to wait. "Cause is going to be triply delicious. Besides, the man doesn't mind. He's already making it," Axel pointed out, gesturing his head at the pizza man, who was beginning to spin out in his hands the dough. He really didn't know what he was going to do after this, as he wanted to see, talk, and just be with Larxene so very badly, while at the same time, the event with Zexion was still on his mind. Other than Roxas, Zexion, and Vexen, and now Xaldin and Xigbar, he was suppose to be dead, and he couldn't come out and appear to his woman until later on. And also, he wasn't certain just what Max was going to do either. All he knew was that Zexion's suffering will be in his hands, and that was enough for him. They will have their talk. Even if he had to set it up himself. Roxas just sighed, forgetting it now that it was too late. Staring back at Axel, he saw his friend deep in thought, and he gave him awhile in respect, before saying, "Then let's get a table." That worked, as the redhead snapped back of whatever he was contemplating, and just gave a weak, dazed nod. "Um...right."
OOC: Weirdly enough, I just went back in time when I was a teeny bopper to a song Britney Spears sang, Sometimes, as pop music as it is, and it really matches Larxene in the situation with Axel now. Seriously. Check the lyrics o.O, except the whole trusting line. I think I'm going to take Roxas as well, if that's alright. Is just weird seeing Axel without him for so long xD. Larxene laid face down on her bed, exhausted emotionally, and just her body needing a time to be in something comfy, clear her mind, breathe, and relax. Despite that, many thoughts were running around and through her head, and she knew that she had to ponder Axel and her whole problem in due time. He said he'd wait forever, but she didn't want him to. She really didn't. He didn't deserve it, especially as she was the one who was taking this long to say her feelings. She loved him...she said that to Marluxia enough, yet she couldn't say it to him. To Axel. She sighed, knowing the true reason of where her fear came from, and now she needed to see how to overcome it, because...she didn't want to be afraid anymore. She wanted to be with him so badly, and this was hindering it so much. And...then...came Marluxia, and she truthfully felt bad for what she did to him, so cold. She should know better, considering she's been through unrequited love before...it was a great pain, and all you can do is watch helplessly as your loved one is happy with someone else that's not you. Maybe she will speak to him later. Larxene was positive though, that Marluxia's love wasn't as strong as Axel's. Something told her that. And she knew he was going to be alright. Stretching out her legs and arms, she turned herself around to lay on her back, staying there for a few seconds, before sitting up. With those actions, however, her towel had loosened, and it slid off her body unto the mattress, revealing her. Larxene just half lid her eyes, not really caring since no one was here, and she was about to get changed anyway. Standing on her two feet, she slowly went over to her opened suitcase that was propped on a chair, in a corner away from anyone's eyes. Her legs still kind of ached, but it wasn't going to stop her as she took out the usual; pants, tank top, trench coat, gloves....the ones she wore when she fell down the hill were in a spot on the floor, and she had to remind herself to put it in a bag to wash it. Heading back to the bed, she laid the new taken out clothes there, and while she had on her underwear, her bra was yet to be brought out of its hiding place, and she got it as she dug her hands around Axel's pajamas. As she began putting it on, her mind drifted on why Axel didn't say anything about them, or had taken them back. She had forgotten to question him due to the circumstances...I mean, she really wouldn't mind keeping the pajamas, but she wasn't sure if he precisely left it to her. As she finished placing on her shirt as well after fixing her bra to fit comfortably, she went to grab her black skinny pants, which were obviously tighter and fit like a second skin unlike the rest of the males, which have them loose. Not that they were uncomfortable, the material was very smooth, and in fact, it worked with her fighting as it gave her more freedom. As she got dressed and slipped into them, she sat down at the edge of her bed to put on her high heeled boots after her socks. For a moment, she wondered just how the Organization kept giving perfect sized clothes and shoes, as she never really remembered getting measured for it. Shaking her head, she then put on her gloves first, before getting into her trench coat, zipping it close. Thinking that she should take a break from everything for awhile, she decided to go down to the lobby, which she had to because of the plates and all. Going over to do her hair to be done, she stopped once she remembered that she couldn't today because of the bandages, it was just let loose without brushing it back, and so she redirected herself to where she left the items. Picking the plates and basins, she coughed a little, checking that the light was turned off, but the radio was still blasting out a song. Concentrating steadily, she tried to summon her abilities, and she could hear static as she made the radio shut off by pushing the button by the force of electrical current. Smirking at that accomplishment, knowing that her power was coming back, she portalled away, blackness surrounding her form as she left the confines of her quarters.
OOC: I'd say guide her characters, then. I really wanted Larxene to talk though :/....xD.
OOC: I don't really think we need a judge, at least for now. We can always leave Luxord pending (which court sometimes do when there are many people being prosecuted in a group), have him sit back down, and go ahead with Demyx's case, then they can receive their verdict at the end. Zack can write the arguments for the judge to look over since the judge is out of focus or you can make up a one hour long disease, and give the green light for the Defense and Prosecutors to continue. I think that would be a better way to do this so it is fair to everyone from both sides. The thing is, now, ICSP is out until Sunday, and I don't want to start without him :/. I mean, you know, if he had some things to say. I guess we can prepare Demyx up, though. She stretched her arms wide as she grunted in her self-induced sleep, breathing out a long haul of wind, before fluttering her eyes open, killing the wonderful dream she was having. It seemed her body was refreshed enough and not tired, and weakly looking around in a daze, she saw nothing had changed. The judge was still looking into another world, Luxord was in the same place...and she thought that the verdict must have not been given, or else Xelax would've woken her up. Oh man, what would she give to get out of this court room. She had packs of Skittles, but those were merely sweets, and now, she needed food. Her stomach growled in agreement. "Yeah, yeah!" Axel began to sing once more in his perfect Steven Tyler impersonation as he cracked on Marluxia. "Dude looks like a lady! Yeah, yeah-" He gestured with his hand to the only girl with them in the vortex of this fanfiction realm, right next to him. "Dude, looks like a lady!" Larxene joined in earnestly, a evil and nasty little smirk on her face as her slick, yet big doe eyes stared at Marluxia in cruel spirit, who appeared like he wanted to guillotine their heads off, but remained admirably collected. Ever since knowing Marluxia's punishment, they've done nothing except to waste time teasing and taunting him with whatever, gay, trans, queer jokes and songs they can come up with. A game to see how much longer can the Graceful Assasin stay calm. It was strange at first for her, seeing as she was teaming up with Axel somewhat, and the last time they ever got together that was similar to this was to give ill humor to Vexen back at that damned castle. Yet, she could not pass up this opportunity. Is not like she was going to be all kinds of goodness to any Axel after this one small goal. Giggling, she simply tilted her head innocently at her former partner, enjoying this for what it was. It gave happy tickles to her hidden sadism that wanted some blood. Larxene knew first hand that while Marluxia remained relaxed for most of the time, he also had a awful temper once things start to irritate him, or even, not go his way. "I hope you know that you're both making fool out of yourselves," Marluxia stated plainly, though his tone quite tight as if holding back animosity to their immature actions. Perhaps they were a bit too bored, and being as he had the "amusing" verdict, he was the prime target. He knew Larxene was doing it to fulfill her usual lust of seeing someone on the spot, yet Axel, he was sure, was doing it because he didn't like him. Hmm. The "feeling" was mutual then. However, he was slowly getting out of his wits to not summon his scythe and slash them in half. A half hour of these specific two ganging up on you, will do that. Especially, as they were aiming at your manhood. In fact, he never noticed how much Axel and Larxene resembled each other in certain aspects. "She had the body of a Venus, Lord, imagine my surprise...ironic enough, that was my first impression when I saw you," Axel went to whisper loudly in a sing-song voice, getting in one more line, seeing Marluxia give him fleeting, sharp glance, ignoring that he just called him and Larxene immature. So what? It was in Marluxia's expense, and something needed to be done to have some fun in this otherwise dull place. It felt like waiting on the doctor's office. And there was nothing to do anyway. While he was sprawled on the platform lazily, sitting, as his arms were on the back supporting his weight, Larxene was beside him, laying on her stomach as her chin rested on her hands. Axel had always kind of suspected Larxene had this childish naïveté about her, sometimes creepy as some would call it, in the way that she dubbed her victims cutely like a three year old girl "toys", and sometimes "pure", as she was quite coquette and playful... when she was in a good mood. That proved so as his eyes trained on her raised legs swinging back and forward like a kid watching a ant crawl on the ground in interest, and he smirked to himself. She could seriously fool anyone with that face and that deceiving innocence. Being as he was written, his eyes trailed on her figure from top to the bottom, though when Marluxia said something, it distracted him from his "studying". "I would be surprised, Larxene, that you're actually joining him, considering on the way he used you before," Marluxia casually commented, who unlike the other two, was leaning on the wall on his feet, trying to drift away from the current "conversation" that centered on him. Yet, his curiosity was peeked. He had seen how Larxene was with Axel in the past, and while he never bothered to question it, or even cared, it was something that seemed appropiate to question. "But I should figure, that you always had some spot for him within you." Larxene just gave a mocking smile, though her face was soured at the last added sentence. "Oh, it doesn't mean anything. Is more like me joining to pick on you, than him, actually. And trust when I say, I thoroughly despise his every cell. Funny, though, how you don't mention you were just his pawn as much as me." She fluttered her eyes when she saw him become disgruntled, knowing that nothing angered him more than aiming at his pride. Either way, she gazed at him intently, though more piercing, as her memory went back to her trial. "However, you're no better. Guess I was being played by two. What would have happened if this whole plan would've worked?" Marluxia chuckled deeply. "I don't know. What would have? Would you have remained loyal?" "Maaaaybe," she emphasized enigmatically and playfully, a devious grin forming on her face as she replied truthfully, her eyes fixing on her gloved nails. "Depends on what I would have gained in the long run. Would you have remained loyal to me?" "Depending whether you were for or against. If it came down to getting rid of you at the time for further order, I would not hesitate," Marluxia replied, sounding as if he was talking about the weather instead of what would be their supposed flawed team up of betrayal. It was a shame, that they couldn't feel the guilt to be able to stop themselves and cared. His own smirk built up as he eyed the blonde woman, who appeared to know all this and was just requesting for outloud confirmation. "You can never be too careful, you're not one to stay second to anyone else." Larxene laughed at that, though it didn't have cheer. "I suppose, I'm not one to being a sidekick level. Of course, not that you would've gotten rid of me that easily." The look she had on her furthered that point. She could be just as guileful if need be, the problem was, that she was foolish that time to place her trust in anyone. And she fell on this with Axel the most. "Power is tempting, and I know is what you wanted, no matter if you didn't give me reason enough." "And you weren't?" She raised a eyebrow knowingly. "I was more in for respect." She didn't bother to explain herself, because really, it wasn't like it mattered anymore, did it? Still...Castle Oblivion was such a lovely little playhouse, she thought almost bitterly, yet she found it funny at the same time. Hmm. Well, that surely proved never to trust men. Like if life hadn't taught her to fend for yourself before all that. Axel had chosen to listen and be silent as this odd, yet revealing discussion took on between the two, spoken coldly and closely recalling them as it was a joke in itself, feeling in his skin the tension and atmosphere change. He wasn't there at that time, but referring to simply this, he wondered how in the world did anyone in that building cooperated. His vision simply shifted from one to the other quite nonchalantly, everything lapsing into a weak quiet air, not to mention, a uncomfortable one. Axel didn't mind though, he just closed his eyes and smiled at the whole thing. The story of traitors, how quaint. Though, while he was kind of proud of what his other look-alike had done, bravery had to be given to these modern Bonnie and Clyde to actually do what he knew many members were imprisoned on: Xemnas rule. It was a basic do or die situation that was a unspoken law. Despite that, he began to ponder over why this was lasting so long. Was the CEO waiting for something in particular? Because really, while he was glad to have Larxene's company, having her, him, and Marluxia now in the same room was awkward. He was befuddled that the only fight he had was with her. And that was predictable. But it seemed he had a knack on cues, because at that moment, a booming, dark, yet suave male voice welcomed them, and soon after, the floor shook, until the platform moved up suddenly like a quick elevator, as they headed to the destination they were set a path for. He eyed Larxene who now laid on her back as her blue eyes stared upward, and then Marluxia, who was standing up smoothly.
That can sound so double meaning for those uneducated xP. But yeah, I know. He said that by PM. Darn. Just when I finished checking over the chapter for him D:. I was hoping to see his fanfic come back alive right away xP. And take your time on LOVE. I have yet to write Larxy in the aftermath after giving Marluxia a wake up call. Though is quite short, as will the thoughts. I'll get Dr. Zexion to do a check-over per usual of what happened. He's Larxene's official relationship psychiatrist without a degree xD.
I forgot about that. It didn't bother me, but I was really "WTH?" when I saw that. I guess Kairi thinks she's kick a** now xD. I want to see her put up with Larxene, honestly (or any other, like Tifa). With the deus ex machina that is her keyblade and herself. Nomura needs to step it up with females though. There's so many damn male characters in the KH world, and only six females in all. One Nobody who died too early without any depth, one Nobody who actually went in-depth and has character, yet does not represent the "fighter" presence. Returned to her self as well. Kairi is perfect (I disagree with Repliku on a few counts. The only one I can see as a flaw is where she says to Sora to forget Riku and leave together, yet that in itself is thrown off as joking, and is left open to what exactly was she thinking when doing so. The rest is merely on point of view, as Kairi didn't appear like she was doing any of that on purpose, and making anyone compete by force. The running was for fun, and she even joined in. And of course, being Sora's love interest, she's going to be, "Oh, Sora!". She still shows she cares for Riku, however, in certain ways. The problem is that is not shown excessively as it should). I rather not go on more about her. Aqua is a hope (though I think she's only in one game and soon gone), as well as the 14th member <-- yet I do think that Larxy got jipped if that random girl got more depth. Seriously. All the fanfics came true on the 14th notion.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazzzzzzzzzzzzuuuuuuuuuuuuppppppppp....Fire. *-* ICSP, I emaile-um, PMed the *TN*-beta chapter xD. So many accidents o.O. I need to break a leg, then. Er, not really....^^;. I started the summer with a bang already, since today I went to a Tom Petty concert. It was for my mom and step-dad originally, but he didn't want to go, so to cheer my mom up as she's been down lately with a problem, I decided to go with her as to not waste the tickets. And to make her happy =3. Cuz she cool . And as of tomorrow, I'm going to Wildwood until Sunday. And we got a hotel suite 8D (my first time ever!). I'll have a laptop there though, so I'll be on. Also because I got work again, I got a Argumentive essay and a journal on my butt. The good thing is, is that's the last written type work I have to do. The teacher wants to focus on the WPT that we need to take as the exit exam to get out of the class more. Yet, honestly, there's now nothing for me to RP on anymore :(. At least for now. Tularim has disappeared, DS is gone for a month, however, I think she said she might appear in a week depending if she has access, and Twilight High and Rivals are not into my characters due to absence (I'm going to write somethng for both tomorrow. I'm going to take Axel out of the date with Rei, and move Axel and Roxas along to eat their pizza). The one RP I have is Love now xD, where Marly is now moping cause of Larxy.
OOC: To make it short, I have no idea ^^;. Maybe we can just guide her characters with us as we go along, and when she comes back, tell her what we are doing and where they are at now. Roxas can pull Naminé with him and she doesn't need to speak, and Shigiku is sleeping in Axel's arms anyway.As for Larxene, that's a toughie, but the best we can do is make her go the same route as Naminé. Or we can wait.
AxelxLarxene SoraxKairi RoxasxNaminé Rikux ? - Course, he has his fangirls, but he needs a woman in-game. I mean, the best friends never get a girl, while their buddies get such like Kairi and Naminé for them, just to keep a trio going. There's nothing wrong with something on the side...;P. TerraxAqua - I'm more geared to that instead of Ven, who looks like her little brother, and to me, Aqua acts like a worried mother. HaynexOlette CloudxAerith LeonxRinoa - Who should appear. Special mentions: ZexionxNaminé - I have some fetish for it that could not be explained. RoxasxOlette - I thought they were really cute, their appearance match gracefully, and before Naminé, I actually considered the thought of supporting them. In fact, they remind me of Cloud and Aerith.
Xemnas - He's going to be back in KH3. I'm 100% positive. Xehanort will return. Not that he deserves it, but he's on the list because he's going to be in his original state. That's a given. Despite Riku having his essence inside him, his Heartless was still destroyed back in the first game, and it wasn't specifically his heart that Riku had inside. It was more of a shadow that the darkness had left due to Ansem posessing him. Basically, is him, Marluxia, and Xaldin, who I think, should not come back, but at the same time, I think is also unfair for them not to. Xemnas by plot got away with it, and the rest, I want ALL back. I'm into the believe that without the Org., KH2 would've fallen flat and out the door, and be boring without any plot to go with. Not that the plot was perfect either, in my opinion, as there are screws lose. I'm not expecting to see everyone, but it will be a nice add on, and to see what lives they lead, what worlds they come from. I'm sure that as real people, they aren't as bad, they will be more aware with having emotions and feelings. ---- In no particular order. Axel: Self-explainable. Actually, he's already back to his original self. Go him. Demyx: Self-explainable Luxord: I'd say he does, he didn't do much of anything that would consider him being extracted from getting his heart back, as he was merely following orders, and was working, as the rest, towards the goal. He also didn't have such a rough personality, and seems quite the British guy, if you will xD. Well spoken and has this flare. Xigbar: I think he was fun, and hilarious, and seems to me like your over the top uncle who thinks he's still in his early twenties. In other words, he's cool . And in the novels, was like a adult figure to Demyx as well, who he was nice to, so that's plus points. In fact, he actually seems to care for the neophytes, from what I've read in facial expressions. He deserves to be back. Larxene: I found her to be so interesting, awesome, the opposite of perfection, and she went away with so litte time, that it left me wondering just who she really is. I really wouldn't mind seeing her original self, as what she did wasn't that cruel. Some kicks here, a slap, and teases, yet nothing to say that she didn't deserve her own heart back. There were worse things she could've done, to be honest. I was surprised she was actually so mild. Saïx: I don't care what anyone says, he does deserve a heart. He's the one that wanted and desired it the most, in my opinion, as even in his death he was wishing to have it, and most of his actions only is to further that goal. He was loyal and obeyed because that's what would get him what was missing inside, which is why perhaps he got such a rank as second in command. I could also go on with he's a Nobody, the feelings not involved, etc., but I'll end it here, as I want to keep the list short. Besides, considering his elf ears, it would be nice to know where he came from >.>. Lexaeus: I like him. He didn't do anything wrong, basically, except fight Riku, which is normal. Can't tell for character, since, well....he didn't really talk. Zexion: I think he also should come back, as he was young, smart, calculative, and out of the apprentices, he's the one that piques my interest the most, other than Xiggy. We barely know much about him anyway. Vexen: OMG o.O. Yeah, I think it would be nice for him to come back. Again, I don't find anything that he did consistently wrong, and before you bring up Repliku, keep in mind that this is the relationship of a scientist and his creation, which he gave life to. Without Vexen, there would be no Repliku. And seeing as he is what he worked on, he will view it and treat it as one, because that's what he was built for. It was experiment. Something that has to be taken into account. All Vexen did really, was give the permission to implant memories and test him. I'm not saying Repliku has feelings and many other things, cause I know, and I don't need it, and that's not what I'm talking about anyway. Is more of a point of view in reasoning. As for his personality, I don't think that's a good example for him not to come back. He didn't do as much wrong as the rest on that castle have done. Creepy. Yer. Yet, I don't think that's justifiable enough. In other words, he does what sells :D. Which is the company's own mantra as well, if you've noticed. I mean, after all these years, they still haven't given out who Cloud loved, Aerith or Tifa. They want to keep fans arguing and giving out statements to keep them interested (then again, with all these FF7 compilations...). But is when it gets out of hand and kind of freaky, that's the negative, and it gets seriously annoying. That annoyance, is what turns me against them, and in the end, completely hate it.
She had that in KH2 somewhat, but it came out looking pathetic, in my opinion. She doesn't do it naturally, as I explained, so it came off too fake. I'm seriously thinking it won't work in future installments either.
Lol, anwita, you basically healed yourself xP. I didn't know you could do that o.O. Pains leave soon enough, I think, or I hope, so just hang in there. Is definitely not taking you down though :D. Actually, if I can ICSP, I might get the chapter done today...yet since it would be probably be around 12 in the morning or so, it will be Wednesday xD. Now though, I'm going to take a break because I just finished my work due tomorrow, and blasting my music off because I get like that when I'm done xD. *breathes* I'm going to be busy this week, since I'm going to Wildwood in New Jersey for a four day vacation starting this Thursday =3, so I'm going to be really lazy. Yet, since my mom will be taking her laptop, I can log on and work on it, gracias a Dios. I think I only have a week left , and after my exit exam that we have to take to get out of the class, I'm done. Until the Fall, where I think I'm going to cry T-T.
Ahhhh, so that's 'Velle. Still a lovely girl xD. By the way, ICSP, I'll get to your chapter by Wednesday or Thursday, since tomorrow I'm going to be quite busy with work, as well as today actually. I've seen that Axel Axe hair spray picture before. In fact, you reminded me of it when you replied in Love about Axel wearing it Axe, and I was going to show it, until I forgot. I would so make my man wear that though =3. And I can't believe we are legal, anwita >D. I haven't done nothing worth giving out my real freedom, but it's a fun time. I can have a real ID instead of a fake one 8D, which I haven't gotten yet >.>. I've been really tired lately, though. I can't wait until Fall, where my college schedule will be hectic. I'm scurred D:. Down, Larxene! Down!!
Larxene kept her gaze to the floor, feeling Axel's eyes pierce through her like the very fire he wields as he halted just very, very few feet away from her, his presence making her breath go uneven. His fresh aroma filled her again, knowing he was just there in her reach. The need, the hunger, to wrap her arms around him completely and lose herself. Because she knew she'll be on another world once she's truly within him. Her stomach churning, she raised her unique aquatic blue eyes to lock with his bright, deep, garden shaded ones, knowing they had their own special color, a mixture of grass green with a dash of jade specks in its irises. Something gnawed at her chest once she saw them intently, sad, somehow lost, yet afraid, and of course, with the care and love he had shown her reflected in the orbs. Larxene found that she could not say anything for awhile, feeling like he didn't really deserve her frustration, and even when he walked more closer in front of her, nearly driving her insane, his words made her raise her eyebrows in surprise. And just like the breeze, he went out the door like she had unfortunately wished it so, leaving her behind. And she suddenly felt empty. "Axel..." she barely mouthed without a sound as her ardent, yet dismal eyes watched his back walk out, deeply regretting her decision right away, leaning the side of her toweled body in the long edge of the door. She also laid her forehead on the wooden surface, somehow wishing for him to come back wistfully, but knowing she had no idea where he portalled off to. His room, maybe. Only the memory of that kiss, which she still felt on her lips like a heated burn begging for more, was the only good that came out of this visit. Yet, she did need some time for herself, figure things out, though she wasn't very hard core about it as before, and her thoughts were dangling on the negative. Axel had said to have faith in him...how many times had she given that to people, and it was never returned? How was she going to get over what was basically her life? She wanted to move from her scars, she really did, however, it was so difficult, because the same thing can happen again. Given Axel's background, it made her even more apprehensive. God, she wanted him so bad...so bad that it ached when he wasn't here with her, and at the same time, she was anxious to grab it. Everything he said was truthful, that he won't hurt her, to trust him...for how long was he willing to keep that? Love isn't forever, minus some gifted ones who had that pleasure to grow old with their partners...but there was also many, the higher percentage, that did not work out. The other guy was just as charming, just as honest, just the same with words, just as he loved her...it ended, and so badly too. How was she to know permanently that Axel was different? It was up to her to take the chance presented to her, and she didn't want to miss out on what would be a great thing. Axel... How the hell did she ever fall so hard for that charismatic and sexy b@stard? Larxene chuckled inwardly. Nevertheless, she sensed a shadow loom over her with another scent, this time with the fresh smell of leaves after a rain shower in the forest, with a slight dab of something nice that reminded her of a flower. She was starting to think she was slowly becoming Zexion with his habit of smelling people. Then again, these male scents of Axel and Marluxia were strong, and if they stood next to her, she really couldn't help her nose taking it all in. Despite that, the pink was the one who she was terribly upset with, and lifting her head sharply, she deeply frowned at him, crossing her arms. Larxene really wanted to say a few harsh things, but for now, she held herself. Coldly, close to a snarl, she asked pointedly, "Is this what you wanted?" "No," Marluxia replied shortly, his eyes quite ashamed, while his expression remained blank. He really didn't expect this whole thing to blow out of proportion as it did, when he just thought that Larxene will take it as it is, yet it seemed all this meant to her more deeper than he could ever fathom. She was obviously torn about Axel and whatever was keeping her away from him. And it was then he realized it. They had yet to be together. Why? They were in love, supposedly, but they have been holding back. Was it because she didn't trust Axel, or what would happen with him later on? That made sense, considering her reaction to what he said before about Axel's darker personality. Maybe...maybe he had hoped too much, and what Larxene was feeling for that redhead was beyond his understanding. The thing was, he already apologized, and now he was speechless at what to do. He couldn't say sorry again, as that won't do it. He couldn't say he didn't mean it, because he did. He also couldn't hug her or do any type of action of that matter, knowing what move she would take. In the end, he was at a loss. Larxene was blatantly pissed off at him. Larxene wasn't having any guilt though, because it was time she finally gave it to him straight up to avoid mishaps like this. While he remained static, she stated plainly as her chin raised strongly, "I don't love you, Marluxia. Simple. I. Don't. Love. You. I might've liked you, been attracted. But that's in the past." She didn't break her merciless rant, even with something wavering behind Marluxia's eyes. "No matter what good intentions you had, I, as well as you, and even Axel, know that you acted on those words to put doubts in my mind about any relationship Axel and I could have had. You did it to sabotage, and we are aware that's what the other motivation was. Grow some balls. At least Axel didn't sink that low as much of a pig you put him as. This does not concern you any more, and it's about time you moved on, don't get stuck on me. There's a million girls out there, Marluxia. Find the one who you belong with. I understand you didn't want to give up...is just not going to happen. You have my trust and friendship, and if you can live with that, then maybe we don't have to part in bad terms..." It was there she took a deep breath, her gaze softening, trying to maintain her composure as she saw Marluxia fall right in front of her figuratively. "And I don't want to end it that way. You've shown how much you care and are concerned for me, and I thank you for that. So much. But I love him, Marluxia. Just seeing him, makes me want to give my body up. I don't know how, or why, yet I love Axel like if my emotions have returned without the need of a heart. So strong and about to burst, that it scares me. He makes me feel. He makes me alive. He's the proof of my existence...and I don't want anyone else." She stopped, thinking that she said enough, and she was beginning to get too sappy once more. Patiently, she waited for what Marluxia had to say, wondering if she took it too tough. Larxene knew, that what she just admitted to him, should be what she needed to say to Axel. Honestly, she somehow wished he heard. Marluxia stayed placid, wounded like if he had been shot by multiple kunai that slashed any remnants of a heart that was in his chest that was long forgotten and lost. And it hurt. Truly, real pain of the likes that he had never experienced before, and for a moment, he wanted to take out the melancholy and broken self outloud to make himself feel better, lose his cool. It was pure fact that he really lost her. And that she would really never be his, no matter how hard he tried. He didn't shake, he didn't move, he was quite numb, and while Larxene can probably spot the glass in his eyes shattering, then perhaps she could figure how much she meant to him. His only saving grace was that deep, deep down, he knew it. He was perfectly in note of this, yet he pursued her anyway. Now that she admitted everything the way it was, right in his face without a ounce of stopping, he wanted to hate her for it...yet it was obvious he couldn't. And he didn't want to. You win, Axel. Hmm. He always had won, though. As he aforementioned long ago, he was fighting a losing battle. Lucky for that idiot to have such a beautiful woman. It was silent as they both gazed at the other as minutes passed, not awkwardly, yet not peaceful either. If friends was as far as he was going to get to her, than he wasn't going to let it go away. It might anger him, ache to see her with someone else, but it was over. Maybe he could move on. Letting a quiet sigh escape him, knowing he needed some time for himself as well, he merely broke the weight in their shoulders by saying emotionless, "I understand." There was nothing else to say, as those two words were the exact respond to all. Without another tone of voice spoken out, he gave her a last glance, seeing her wall fade away as she realized that she may have been too harsh. Marluxia didn't blame her though, so instead, he just stepped out the door, not looking back as he went into the hall. Not giving anything else, black covered him as he disappeared to the confines of his room. Larxene eyed the spot where the Graceful Assasin disappeared, finding that she suceeded, yet with the shadow that she did to Marluxia what she's been frightened of all along. Her eyes quavering a little, she muttered softly to the emptiness. "I'm sorry..." OOC: I'd figured I'd star bolding some quotes too, since this looks hard to find a little xP. Quite long? Yesh. But that was Marluxia's epiphany :(.
We know. This is just a message for those who actually did believe it. Besides, if Axel is Reno, then I say Larxene is Elena. Hey, take off the "r", and there you go xD. Though, I do think the Organization was HIGHLY inspired by The Turks. I disagree though, I think is better left that Axel is not Riku's Nobody in the end. That would kind of be predictable, in my opinion, and not original that all three main characters have Nobodies, just because of their high importance. I'm glad Axel turned out to be his own person, because surely, if he was Riku's Nobody, he'll be quite different.
Oh! >.< You got here before me. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANWITA!!!! :birthday: :party-smiley-013: :cheers: :rockband: Time to give birthday punches!
Obviously, if you keep fighting the data battle, in time, you're going to figure out your own strategy. Is expected once you got the hang of it. Despite that, I'm glad Roxas proved to be strong, and Xemnas as well. For being the leader, he was kind of easy to defeat back in KH2). I'm also VERY happy that I keep hearing Larxene was a b**** to fight and was hard as hell =3. Now it makes sense why Marluxia wanted her on his team and she got into the Organization despite the fact that Xemnas is a chauvinistic pig, which is why they aren't girls in the group except two (Nomura said this when figuring that Xemnas wouldn't put a female in charge of Castle Oblivion and switched Marluxia to a male). Maybe that's why Larxene wanted to overthrow his kisser. That means she could be high on the power rank list. There are some weaknesses, like her health isn't that strong, but they can't make her that hard. Imagine? Unfortunately, Axel was a breeze, among others as well. Extremely challenging, yet he was a few of the easy ones.
Two different characters. In other words, no, Reno is not Axel's Somebody in that regard. Brother maybe, long lost cousin perhaps, but not each other. And I thought I've never had to see the Riku equals Axel being his Nobody, ever, again. There's not even a resemblance in any possible way, they don't have the same figure, Axel's obviously older, and Riku never lost his heart. And the hair? As shown in the ending, Riku's hair is soft as water that girls and Marluxia could die for. There's nothing spiky. All this because they are the appointed best friends of Roxas and Sora respectively? That's all? I'm surprised there was that speculation in the first place.
I do think is kind of sad that Naminé, her Nobody, has more flaws and character than she could ever hope to have. The thing is, though, her "strength" comes a bit overdone/random or forced to me in KH2, I don't know how to word it. Is like she's trying so hard to be this bada** chick (she should leave that to Larxene, who does it naturally. Seriously. That girl should've never died. Her and Naminé alone would have represented what should have been represented), but she isn't. It's like watching one girl try to push herself up the popular ranks and acts and pretends to be cool, but looks pathetic. And it's hilarious. A good example, is when she was prancing (that's what it looks like to me) with Naminé down the floors, and when she spotted Saïx, she placed up her fists like she was going to do anything to him. I was already dying of laughter before Saïx mentioned it (I still wonder what was the point of that. That they weren't going to go quietly? Well, that kind of did not work with Axel). We already know Naminé tries to stand up for herself when the occassion calls for it, despite that she knows she's not strong, but she drowned herself good points by following Kairi's actions. Then, of course, there's the whole jumping off the balcony and flying off, and looking so determined and tough :roll eyes:. For real, since when can she do that? (oh yeah, we can't forget that she got man piled by Heartless after) That was when I started to think if they were trying to make her appear stronger to make up for the lack of it before, which was becoming true. To finalize, there pops up the random out of the blue flowery Keyblade, a.k.a. deus ex machina Riku gave her because it came from a "past memory", and then she swings it as she thinks she's the b*tch not to mess with, and even has the audacity to say, "Come on Riku, you know Sora is helpless without us!". WTF. WTF. Lol xD. Who's the one that has to be saved all the time, to the point where her Nobody had to fetch her out? After that, she goes on to swat, not kill, swat, Heartless away, and when the Keyblades are needed again, with Sora, Mickey, and Riku, "hers" disappears and is never seen or mentioned again -_-. I'm teling you... Deus ex machina Which is perfect for the Mary-Sue Kairi already is (after all, she's sweet, nice, brave, strong, gorgeous, is Sora's light that can bring him back from the darkness, Princess Of Heart, can write a letter and make a portal of light due to it, has a strange backstory, can't remember where she came from before, gets into the world of the future heroes, gets a Keyblade, etc. Mind you, this are all positives, because there's no wrong with her), as she's been a deus ex machina herself. Is only fitting. At least Aqua is shown as a fighter with a Keyblade first off the moment we see her.
Tifa didn't do anything, didn't move, didn't even breathe as she was frozen in shock as Cloud kissed her, just after he ran his soft finger over her lips, wrapping her in him as his hands moved on her body. Her brain had even short-circuited, knowing she wanted to kiss him and was planning to, as he had asked, but she didn't predict he would start it. As she slowly gained her thoughts back and the surprise of the action seeped away, she went to enjoy the feel of his soft and luscious lips on her own, and her hands went to trail around his shoulders, and then in the back of his neck, pressing herself tighter against him. Fluttering her eyes shut, she kissed back, moving her mouth gently and softly with his as her head tilted for better contact, not believing this was truly happening. As it escalated to a more passionate level, she sensually bit lightly at the top of his lip, and once she found a entrance, she slipped her tongue inside, tasting him as it swirled around what she had wanted to have for such a long time, her fingers running up his hair from the back.
