OOC: making Repliku go first though isn't a bad move. It gets the least known and yet most critical stuff others weren't there for out of the way. Riku, Namine or Sora could also all testify, as well as Roxas to understanding Axel etc since no one was really there the whole time and understood him absolutely. I did realize after you mentioned it thoiugh Rep wouldn't have known the first 3 things he said, but fortunately he wasn't asked them either. So it's all good still.
Yes, I'm sure now that they -may- know the photo was doctored, it gives them more pride. lol
OOC: Actually, since Mewtwo never asked about those, I will delete the ones that he doesn't have a 'clue' about since I didn't really think about it at the time and was just typing stuff at 4 am, going through both RR and Sora's stuff. The top 3 things are deleted since he could be 'told' but eh, you are right. So, I am amending the testimony now and the rest can stand since Mewtwo went after the ones that Repliku would know and never had to be countered.
Jesus did not throw out the laws of Leviticus. He also did not get rid of the 10 Commandments and said all should still follow them. He even brought some of the Old Testament laws out when speaking to people to include that people should follow God above family love and loyalty etc. He did not really 'confront' homosexuality it would appear so it is not challenged necessarily but Jesus stood pretty firm on some other declarations of Leviticus and other areas of the Old Testament and there's no reason for some Christians to toss out Leviticus therefore, because Jesus also supported it, though he did give people a chance at redemption. The very point people are 'born sinners' and that he had to die to let them be cleansed to go to Heaven should say he did not refute the teachings as much as offer a 'second chance' to worshippers.
He's on his way to LA now since you decided to clue him in.
There is no -evil- Roxas so sorry there. It was all illusory and symbolic. But you can have Saix and Xaldin if you want. And yes, Ansem59 you can have Sora and your OC is great. Also, chule-claire, I put you in as Axel. We should be able to start sometime on Monday since we have enough people now and I can write in an introduction. So be prepared!
Guys, please put in more than just the characters' names. Give a reason 'why' or this is going to have to be moved to Spam Zone. Back on topic: I chose Sephiroth and Tifa as they are my favorite FF VII people and having Sephiroth battle on your side would be just cool. Tifa is great and she could teach Kairi how to fight and not look like a good wind would drop her.
Repliku nodded and confirmed he was as ready as he was going to be. "Axel just told me what the cards were for. He really just kind of stood there and let the others do whatever. The show mainly consisted of Larxene with the idea and pushing, Vexen agreeing, Marluxia being there doing his part of watching and wanting what Larxene did and me contesting it. He didn't do much but just stand there really and seemed indifferent to the whole situation." "No, I did not want to kill Sora and he didn't want to kill me. I believed I was Riku but also was very determined to protect Namine because of the implanted memories. However, Sora was still a friend..kind of." "I never saw him be threatening towards Namine. I was not around all the time though but by my accounts he either ignored her and Larxene or Marluxia were picking on her. Once I stopped Larxene from it, though I wasn't myself then. However, Axel just seemed rather more nonchalant about stuff to include most people and he was scheming. He wasn't really hostile to anyone save for Marluxia at the end. The only time I know he threatened Namine was when Marluxia was using her as a shield and though he said he'd go through her to get to Marluxia, he never got a chance to." Repliku nodded and then tapped his forehead a moment in thought before saying rather even in their voices/accents what happened. And then she came to me and beat me up and dragged me off to go get my memory altered." "I don't know since I never met Xemnas and stuff. All I know is Axel was told to 'kill the traitor' and Axel deemed Marluxia to be a traitor to the Organization. In order to kill him though, because no one there could seemingly question him, such as Vexen, without being labeled a traitor themselves, he killed Vexen to get in closer to Marluxia to do the job. I don't think Axel really cared how he had to eliminate Marluxia from betraying the Organization, but he had to do something. Also, I think Axel was protecting Roxas, because Vexen shouldn't have put Sora in a Twilight Town memory which was Roxas's and Vexen was starting to say things he shouldn't." "No, they didn't and weren't really paying attention or quite a few were either gone or dealing with other things. Namine stopped me." "I was on the ground so...well, Namine may have been in danger. Axel did off Vexen simply to get the trust of Marluxia in order to kill 'the traitor'. So it's very possible he would have gone through Namine to get to Marluxia. How much danger she was in though was debatable. Sora showed up and Marluxia told him what Axel was going to do and Sora and Axel both faced off as Marluxia disappeared with Namine. I'd say they went after each other at the same time and I think Axel just went with it since Sora's head was so clouded at the time so I'd say it just was mutual. Also, when the fight was over Axel told him he was glad he helped keep him alive." "I knew that the memories I had of Riku were not mine. I also knew that Namine couldn't reverse them and oh well. I felt pretty empty and not sure what I would do. It wasn't like Riku's memories were bad but they just weren't mine and I wanted something of my own. Namine took that from me and didn't even apologize. I can say I was just lost. Not utterly out of control but just had no purpose but to want to be real." "No, he was very wrong. Taking Zexion's power did nothing for me. Fighting Riku did nothing for me. I know now what it was I was missing to be more 'real'. It was to make myself my own identity. Maybe rename myself, go do things, make my own lasting memories and be part of stuff. Killing did nothing to help. I'm sure there Axel just set me up to get rid of Zexion and then after knew Riku would kill me off. In the end, Axel would be the only survivor out of Castle Oblivion that was with the Organization. He worked it out that way and I don't know exactly why, but that's how it was." "Yes, he did. I'm pretty sure he knew I'd lose to Riku because my fight was stupid and Riku had grown in power past just Darkness."
That really made me laugh and was just great. I've had problems with Leviticus for years being used by Christians as a reason to do anything when they clearly can't follow -all- of the laws there. We really can't follow even some of the guidelines Jesus said because they are out of date and it is 'assumed' that what he was talking about was in his time such as telling slaves to accept their lot in life and not rebel because after they would be rewarded. Leviticus was amusing and yet frightening at the same time and when people still insist on using it as a means of saying homosexuality is unfounded, truly in the end they should live by the whole decree of the section. Otherwise, they are just picking and choosing what they want. Of course, living as the Old Testament told people to do would get them utterly in trouble with our much more peaceful stance today and they'd be locked up. Such a price to pay.
Hissora and any artist here, I do understand that you'd like more critiquing and probably wouldn't mind, as I've seen most artists take it well there, if someone even says they don't like it and includes -why-. I would say, Neku, that's the point Hissora was trying to make here. Just posting without any depth there gives the artist no feed back really to improve or know that it's a really great work of effort. Some of them spend hours or even days on graphics and to have someone come in and post indifferently: "That's good. Add some red. Nice job!" It doesn't tell the artist 'why' he/she should add some red to it. So should the artist even bother taking it seriously? If not, why was the post even made? I do agree that it is spam for that reason. Some sections of the board do ask that people put some depth into posts because those posts matter for opinions and as far as I can see, Hissora isn't telling people to not post there. She's just asking for more meaningful posts that require a couple minutes thought on a project that took her or others a much longer time to do.
I didn't mind Xidon's comments and found the first one he said to be very funny.
What is your favorite color? What is your quest? Pirates or ninjas? Cowboys or knights? If you were to be stuck living some place for the rest of your days, where would that land be? What is your favorite movie this summer? Do you have any pets? If so, what? What is your favorite video game? Which Megaman do you prefer and why? If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be? Do lame people taste better with ketchup or are they crunchy in milk? Who is your favorite actor? Who is your favorite actress? What is your favorite band? Who is your favorite singer? Why can I only ask 20 questions a time now? That's not so much fun, is it? What would be the ideal job you'd want? Is ICSP justified? Will you be anticipating the next 20 questions?
Aww, that sucks. Take care and if you come back around, see you then. If not, stay well.
Replipedia. Subscribe now! And sorry, Cronoking. I get what you mean. :(
mwahahaha... It's in the Spam Zone so no one has to really read it. I think that's the first big thing I've written in the spam zone in like 8 months.
Buddhism isn't really a religion when practiced in some ways. If alone without incorporating local things to it, it can just be a path to helping clear the mind and learning meditations, being at peace and understanding yourself. I believe he was into that sort of Buddhism rather than an actual religious version.
Welcome back! It sounds like you had a very enjoyable time.
Repliku nodded and took the stand. He sat down and was not going to be surprised if Axel was zoning. He could be super intelligent and aware of so much and at the next minute could be off somewhere else mentally. It was kind of amusing. * Larxene loses to Sora in some fight with Sora but returns and Axel and her talk and Vexen shows up and I was in the hallway overhearing the conversation. Vexen says he wants to test me against Sora and they agree to it with a bit of coaxing and mockery. I asked what the cards were for and Axel said they were of Sora and Riku's memories. Larxene then comes up with the idea to use me and give me Riku's memories. They do what they planned after Vexen says it must be done. * Between floors 7 and 8 I went and encountered Sora. I did as told with the new memories and fought Sora after getting angry about Namine. I left. * Namine and Axel have a convo and he tells her that Nobodies can't be somebodies but he was sure there was something she could do. * Larxene and Vexen have a argument about the experiment. Axel was there too but kind of playing middle ground though teasing Vexen. Marluxia labeled me a failure and said he'd report it to Xemnas. Larxene said treason is a capital crime. Marluxia gave Vexen the order to destroy Sora and Vexen, having little choice went to do so. Axel pointed that out to Marluxia who didn't care. * Vexen goes to confront Sora. During this time he takes him to a memory of his 'other' in Twilight Town. After, Marluxia gave him the order to kill Vexen. Axel went and did it after saying he would do what Marluxia said 'eliminating the traitor. * Axel comes back and passes his test to get in more with Marluxia and Larxene. * I meet Sora again who tells me I am 'free' because Vexen is gone. My memories were altered and Sora and I had the same memories of Namine now. We fought. * Axel after this let Namine go before Sora would go to Destiny Islands. * Namine confronts Sora on the Islands and then after he leaves there, all 3 of us meet in floor 12. Sora and I fought. * I was then going to kill Sora over false memories and Namine shut me down. After this he goes on but Marluxia comes to where Namine took me. * Axel shows up to confront Marluxia who calls him a traitor. Axel says he's the traitor and he would kill him in the name of the Organization. I couldn't do a thing. They fight some, neither gaining ground. Marluxia tells him to strike, but Marluxia gets Namine to use her as a shield and Axel says he is going to attack any way. Sora arrives and Marluxia points out to Sora that Axel would kill Namine so he then leaves with Namine and Axel and Sora fight. * Axel was defeated by Sora but leaves. His will is strong so he doesn't die and feigns it instead. * Marluxia was taken out and Axel spoke with Zexion and gave him a card to take on Riku because it was felt Riku was useless. Zexion fails in his fight. I wasn't there for this but knew about it since he brought me to see Zexion after. * Axel met with me and he brought me to where Zexion was after his fight. I had learned above that I was not 'real' but I had Riku's memories now and Axel said it would be nice to be real. I agreed with that. * He said all I needed was the strength and Zexion would be a good place to start so I killed Zexion, absorbing his power. * After, he monitored and I would die fighting Riku.
lol! Are you sure you didn't?
Dark Knight is easily my favorite movie of the summer. I really loved it. I want to see it again! It is one of the few movies I've seen that actually wasn't deceiving and was as good as it was said to be. Darn it was a great movie. wark.
