You'll need to upgrade to 8.0 or choose another browser. This has been the only solution which means it's a browser problem that it's simply outdated. It's fixed the issue for several people now. If it doesn't work, we just give spdude a holler.

If you can't see it, make sure you have IE 8.0 instead of a former version. You need the current version of IE or get a new browser such as Fire Fox, Google Chrome or Opera.

Stay tuned for this week's drama!

You can check a person's profile and use the tab 'About Me' by the Statistics and Visitor Messages area. If the person does not care to choose a gender though, you will just have to ask the person. It's their choice whether they feel like saying their gender or not and some people prefer not to.

Twilight Town: Hayner finished off his ice cream and tossed the stick through the air, sinking it into a trash can in the corner. "Well, you'll definitely have to be around in a few weeks when the Struggle matches are on. We could use someone good on our team since I'm the only one who does it here and these two help me prepare. We'll have to see just how good you are, Roxas." He grinned amiably but there was that challenge in his eyes.

DiZ looked around and then turned, heading downwards from the train station. "We must acquire Roxas now. If he chooses to not assist us, that will be the way of things but if he will assist us, I believe his help will be greatly appreciated." He walked on moving towards the Usual Spot.

Riku glanced about the train station area. He remembered it well both as the real place and the fake Twilight Town. He recalled the fake one though sadly more. It was here that he had needed to steal Roxas's munny since there was no way he could go to the beach with his friends. He looked over at Demyx. "Please try to understand, Demyx. We need to do this or else there won't be anything to save them at all. I learned there was more to you guys. If things could have been different before, it would have happened. Unfortunately it couldn't but maybe now, Demyx, we can help you guys and well, we are going to have to stop this opponent, whoever it happens to be. Even if we can't do anything when we get them out, you can always still come with us. Okay? I doubt the Organization is just going to sit there too. They will be ready. We can do this."

Riku frowned and turned following DiZ. A reason he wanted to help the Organization was remembering Axel and Namine and how they were just not like some of the others. Roxas wasn't either. Were others changeable as those three had been and now here was Demyx with more proof in front of him. Also, could he just condemn Axel to a fate when Axel had helped him and Namine to get to TWTNW to find Kairi, and he also sacrificed himself for Sora? No, in the least, Axel deserved a way out if none others did. He had risked himself. It was only right to return the favor. Explaining this to Demyx though was difficult. "Demyx... I know you may think that we shouldn't risk it in this manner, but someone risked a lot for our team and that was Axel and he's stuck there. He nearly died, and well then did expire later after Namine and I had made it into that world to try to save Kairi. Understand that in the least, we cannot condemn him because like Roxas, Namine and yourself, he did prove himself to be more. Also, if four of you could show that, maybe there's more to the others too. It's just something that has to be done. I won't let something like this go. I'm sorry." He let it be at that and continued onwards, not sure what else to say. His heart was heavy. Did he do this out of guilt because of what he had done to Roxas? He didn't believe so but he would always wonder if the Nobodies could actually be whole in some way. Axel and Namine had really put forth a good case to him and his memories of Roxas did stir him enough to save things for Sora to see that were from Roxas, to try to say to Roxas that it was going to be okay. The situation was so confusing back then. Would it get easier now?

Repliku smiled a bit at Demyx. "Some of the Org sucks. But well if some are good like you, we should give them a chance. I'll hang out with you though if you want and help guard the doorway on our side. Okay?"

TWTNW: Zexion stirred in his seat a bit. "I still nominate Larxene for the duty. I feel she is the better choice and there is no real better way to test her loyalty than to send her. If the others come soon, perhaps they will weaken some side while we get the other. I am not sure the plan to send her through or Xaldin through without the aid of the others would even work at this point." He rubbed his chin a moment in thought.

heh, I live in NY and don't think upstate sounds like hicks. Really most New Yorkers don't have much of an accent at all. It's only some with the New Joisey influence that get that accent. And northern yorkers well, only a few try to be cowboys, which we utterly disown.

Sure thing, Fayt, and hey Shades. Added you both and Cin. 15 members to start. Not bad. :)

OOC: Playing Axel is so fun. He's such a lonely and yet zany guy. He is one of my absolute fave characters though we all know Janexna is his biggest fangirl that would slay anyone else in line.

Axel let out a burst of laughter here and then covered his mouth and looked up at the ceiling and then back at Janexna. Yeah, she was really a trippy kinda gal. This was going to be interesting.

"Yeah, those things" he responded with a grin. He began though to wonder if for some reason he would be made a slave to her as Demyx was to the drawing girl that was not Namine. Oh man, that would be perilous to his health, wouldn't it?

Axel tapped his chin for a moment before responding. "Well, in a way, yeah. Larxene has a way of playing with her food if you get what I mean. We weren't supposed to really harm Sora and we all knew who he was."

"He said he wanted to test out his experiment so yeah, I gave it to him then just to get him off our backs. Vexen could be highly annoying if I really cared about what he said half the time. As for the Riku Replica, as far as I was concerned, he was just some experiment that Vexen wanted to test and I didn't really give him a second thought. To be point blank about it, he was an 'it' at the time and just some lame thing Vexen felt compelled to bring out and play with to pat himself on the back over."

Axel tapped his temple and then pointed at her. "You got it. You are smart. I never was down with Marly's plans. However, I knew they were going on by suspicious things he and Larx were doing. I wanted to find out what they were up to so I played along."

He smirked coyly at the Defense Attorney. He then looked thoughtful once more. "No, I did not want Sora to be a mindless drone. It was not a goal of the Organization and Sora's welfare was not up to Marluxia to decide. I also saw no point in making him into what Marluxia wanted because he'd be worthless as a Keyblade wielder if he was going around killing people wrongfully and might even turn to Darkness. What that might do to Roxas could also not be known at the time. We knew who Roxas's somebody was and well, if Sora changed, maybe Xemnas would know what would happen but I sure didn't. Sora also wasn't a bad kid. He didn't deserve that. fate either...I do however admit the reason of course also was that Sora intrigued me, as I said earlier. It kind of influenced me to care some. Were my actions to help him somewhere within? Maybe. Being around Sora or Roxas for that matter, they do kind of rub off on you that they aren't so bad. I can't explain it really but I just didn't think making him a mindless zombie was well, right and I could justify it with logic that Xemnas certainly at that time had no intentions to get rid of Sora so Marluxia shouldn't get away with it either and it was against Org interests as it was betrayal after all."

Axel let out a 'hmm' for a moment as if the thought back then really had never crossed his mind but then he was drawn to the moment of his actual death where he spoke to Sora. In the end, maybe he had made a soul conscience choice there in a time where Axel might have pondered if he actually had a working conscience at all. He then listened on.

"This is where it gets kinda hairy. I guess I really need to explain it and yeah, it is rotten. If I knew then what I do now, I probably wouldn't have finished that off that way. Really!"

He let out a sigh and his shoulders slumped. "Riku Replica had the seeds in him already to wanting to seek out Riku. Vexen had them fight to test out his experiment straight off. Then Namine did what she did and well after he realized that was all a lie, he was lost thinking on what to do. I coerced him into killing Zexion and yes, I also tweaked on those threads which were already in him since his mind was such a fragile thing and well, he had to go. I knew he'd go confront Riku and be defeated because not only from my influence but from his life and a competitive urge to well, be real. Had he not chosen to fight Riku, I don't think I'd have done anything else but I was pretty sure I knew what he'd do so I left it at that. I did play it and well it's not like I forced him to, but I can't say I didn't motivate it at all...but hear me out here."

He looked up at the ceiling and exhaled slowly and then shrugged. "Remember when Larx called him 'a doll'? Well, that is kind of how we saw him. I saw him as an 'it' and an experiment of Vexen's that obviously had some faulty wiring but really that faulty wiring was a heart somehow. It didn't hit me at the time and well, it therefore didn't matter. He had to go to make sure the lines were all cut, since after all, I killed his creator and didn't want that getting out. I was pretty sure that Riku and Sora and Namine weren't going to go to Xemnas and say what all happened at the Castle Oblivion. I was covering my tracks because I really didn't want to be accused of being a traitor and well, I could have if anyone remained and put out a rotten word on me. Had he actually remained with Sora and Namine, I probably wouldn't have done what I did and would have dealt with Zexion myself. It just turned into convenience and well, if he stayed around it would suck for me." Axel was not sure if this actually hurt his testimony or helped it but eh, he didn't feel he wanted here to be misunderstood and he was going to be ripped on by the Prosecution when Janexna, the hot attorney fan girl was done with him. If he could get it out here with her presiding over the questioning, maybe the yellow pokey thing wouldn't have too much wind in his sails. Strategy, yes..that's what it's all about.

Axel jerked back at this and his eyes went wide and then he shook his head. "Oh hell no! I never planned on actually killing Roxas. I was against the command but I couldn't speak out about it or else I'd be a freaking Dusk and no way. I didn't want that. However, leaving got me out of there and it would bide me some time. I could try to bring Roxas back. I tried to jog his memory the first fight. The second fight, I had a LOT of pressure with that threat looming over me so I decided to make it look good and make my escape. I did not want Roxas to go back to Sora but well, he was stronger and there just wasn't a way really to get him to remember much. He had me going there for a bit but he only remembered stuff because Namine told him. I could tell. So I had to go with my orders but I wasn't going to kill him...no way. He was my best friend. I didn't know what I was going to do after that, but I never sought to kill Roxas. Got it memorized?!"

"Ya know, when he mentioned it, I almost thought about it but he was kinda playing a mind game with me to see what I was actually going to do since he knew I wanted Roxas back. I asked if that was the Org's plan and he was elusive and I figured in the end I got what he was doing. He was trying to figure me out there what my big goals were since he knew I wanted to restore Roxas. He knew how it would have to be done and I really was still in infancy stage of thinking it through. I think he was testing my cleverness and how far I would go. I think he wanted to get me keen to the idea too so that I'd have something more to be accused of by Xemnas with interfering with the plans. Sora being naive to the Org's plans was better to them at that time than bringing Roxas back who knew too much and refused to help. It was a way to set me up and I could have gone that way but I knew better.'

"I kidnapped Kairi because Namine said she wanted to meet her, as you said. I won't say I didn't ponder about some things which led me to say some stuff to her that got Riku there and he Dark Portaled her out the first time. He even asked me later if that's what I planned to do and well I told him 'depends'. However, I did want to help Sora in the end. When I took her from Twilight Town I really did intend on bringing her to Namine but Saix well, he hit me hard when I tried to not let him take her and that was that. I swear!"

She sent another sly stare, with a suggestive and naughty gleam in her eyes, as if he could lick her, or she him, any time. "What did she say? "[/QUOTE]

In Twilight Town with the dog attacking me, you mean. Holy crap he was mauling me! Okay yeah, he was pouncing and licking me but yeah, I'm getting lost here." Axel cracked his knuckles. "Well, if you mean when I brought Kairi there and Pluto was there, well, she was rather livid with me but the dog lightened things up and she said I must not be so bad and I said I wasn't a bad guy or a good guy. I asked her if she wanted to still meet Sora and she said yeah and then Saix jumped us." He then shrugged. "If you mean though after when Namine and Riku found me pondering the meaning of life while I was seriously spacing out, they said they wanted to go to the Castle and well, I knew they couldn't get there unless I helped them so I told them to meet me at the mansion."

Smilies are evil. Maybe they are kinda overkill xD I took some of them out and now it looks much better.

You are on the list. We will probably begin tomorrow in the afternoonish since it seems right now is a slow time.

Strawberry power unite!

I don't think so. Pyro did a lot of the stuff on her own even though she had a bit of help. ICSP was epic though too.

Wow, what a snarky post! I lol'd because fortunately I read the white text. You are great when you are posting angry. Have a safe time away and come back to us soon.

Agreed. Right now we can hypothesize about KH III but we really have little to go on as we have not even yet played the 3 games coming out that are the fillers and explaining games leading to it.

Riku was on the path of Twilight to the Dawn. It's a basic acceptance that you can use both your negative destructive side and your positive creative side to do things as you want to and not fall totally to Darkness but know that you will never be pure in Light either.

The Organization weren't really Twilight. The effects of Darkness, Twilight and Light mainly affect those with actual Hearts and emotions that can spurn them to do things that are destructive or creative. This is why Xemnas's power was 'nothingness' which put him outside of it to basically be the ultimate in apathy and well on its own 'plane of existence'. It seems there are basically 3 stages in existence in the game so far which is Nothingness, Darkness and Light. Twilight is a state between Dark and Light as is Dawn.

I thank you for explaining that out. It was very insightful to learn. Also, as jettie said, Jews are Jewish by birth but can be Atheist by choice. The Jewish culture is definitely one that is vibrant and it would be a shame to lose the culture entirely just because of a regard to disbelieve in the religion itself. I do not think it so different in some ways as I celebrate Christmas though I am not a Christian and also celebrate some other holidays around the world and from my Native American side though I am also Atheist and just tend to take out the deity aspect of it. I suppose though it is a very odd thing for people to hear of an Atheist Jew.

Some curious questions I have:

On holidays and such, you say you celebrate them. Do people in your family know you are also Atheist and do they mind that?

Do you receive more pressure by outsiders who aren't Jewish asking how you are an Atheist Jew or from Jewish people? Also, do you know quite a few Atheist Jews where you are at?

I do appreciate you putting this here and explaining it as it did clarify things and is intriguing. I also find it intriguing that Jettie too is also an Atheist Jew so it lets you know on the boards here you aren't alone.

Alright, going to close this topic up soon so those interested in the game go post in the new thread just made.
