(OOC: FINAL EDIT!) *********************************************** "Oh, Mr. Smith," Xemnas replied. "You know the old saying 'Boys will be Boys.' But don't worry, Xigbar will indeed make sure your house is clean. He can work miricles if properly motivated." Xemnas studied the looks on both their faces, a triumphant one on "Smith"'s and a shocked one on Xigbar's "In fact," Xemnas added, a twinkle in his eye, "I will personally escort you both back to the house and make sure little Xiggy here doesn't miss a thing. I think his old dad giving him the evil eye will certainly speed his progress up. Indeed, you'll have plenty of time to spare before your wife gets home." Xemnas smiled politely.
Well, say I wanted to fit together a small gang of characters that normally wouldn't go together. Would that work, or can you only work with one image per signature?
Is it possible to put more than one picture in an avarage sized tag without it being a large burden on you?
Axel? thought Xemnas, Luxord did babble Axel's name, but I couldn't make out the rest... Xemnas eyed Xigbar, and then this Smith person. "Mr. Smith, would you kindly tell me what the damages are? Leave no detail out." Xemnas could feel control trying to tear free from him again. On the one hand, Xigbar wasn't in the habit of doing things like this. On the other hand, he had been turned into a five-year-old, and five-year-olds carrying grudges are capable of anything. And yet, again, perhaps it was the fact that an hour had gone by since Xemnas ventured to eat something and nothing had yet been eaten, but there was something unsettling about this Smith person that Xemnas couldn't quite put his finger on.
Xemnas regarded the little Xigbar. He was genuinely frightened, and that raised all sorts of red flags. Play this subtley thought Xemnas. "Now Xigbar," Xemnas said in what he hoped was a fatherly voice, "You shouldn't treat the nice man like this. I thought I raised you better than that." He gave Xigbar an almost imperceptible wink and then turned back to "Matt Smith." "So, Mr. Smith, how about that drink? I insist after all the trouble my...son...has caused you." I should be more alert, thought Xemnas, I almost couldn't keep a straight face on that one. ******************************** (OOC: Gee, my brain must be fried. I keep catching all these typos on my behalf all after the fact. )
Xemnas looked this man up and down, trying to size him up. "Well Mr. Smith," he said after a moment, "He doesn't normally get into that sort of trouble, but things haven't been going so well lately..." He picked up the unconcious Xigbar. "I'll have a talk with him when he comes to. Would you like to come in for a drink, Mr. Smith?" Xemnas was wearing a polite smile, but there was a dangerous gleam in his eye.
Xemnas heard a loud thud coming from outside. "Larxene, look after Luxord and don't do anything...creative." Xemnas ran to the gates and found what looked like a five-year-old Xigbar and some stranger smoking a cigarette. As calm as a stalking panther, Xemnas stolled over to the unfamiliar-looking man and stared down at him. "You have approximately two seconds to tell me who you are and why you are accompanying an almost nude child."
Actually, the dog's name is "Toto." Two "T"s. At first I thought "Really good, but where the Wicked Witch of the West?" Then I read about your plans. Can't wait to see it. :D
I want to hug him and pet him and name him George.
My dad's in his late 40s, and my mom's in her early 50's. Neither of them particularly look it, though.
"Abracadabra" by Steve Miller Band. I heat up, I can't cool down You got me spinnin' round and round Round and round and round it goes Where it stops, nobody knows Everytime you call my name I heat up like a burning flame Burning flame, full of desire Kiss me, baby, let the fire get higher Abra-Abra-Cadabra I wanna reach out and grab ya Abra-Abra-Cadabra Abracadabra
Personally, I have all the video game systems I want right now, or ever will want. If KH3 comes out for PS3 or Wii, I'll buy the systems for it, but I really don't want to have to. My vote? Keep it on PS2.
I don't know...maybe it was one level behind, it's been a while, but Donald was definitely less. Donald might get to your level for ten minutes before you yourself level up, and whatever, so that nobody was all the same level until you all reach level 100.
I know in KH1 there was a specific distance between levels: Goofy = Sora's Level +2 Donald = Sora's Level -2 Other Allies = Sora's Level +1 I honestly don't know how the KH2 system works. It's not quite so rigid.
Xemnas stared into the eyes of the child Luxord, waiting for an answer. He hoped to any deity who would listen that he did not seem frightening to the small one. He needed information and Larxene was no help. It had dawned on him, amidst the chaos and the lack of food, that if Luxord was transformed into this, chances were he was not the only one. He needed to find out where everyone else was, and fast, for if one of the others had been de-aged and had somehow escaped the castle, it could bode extremely ill. The logical part of his mind knew that he had no heart, and therefore could not truly feel any emotion, but whatever heart residue a Nobody can be left with truly cared for the remaining twelve of his organization. Even when they drove him completely insane and ate all his specially marked ice cream behind his back. ********************************************* (OOC: Okay, I know all that sounds really cheesy, but I'm reading all these posts about Xigbar and that creep and I just want to rush in and save the little guy. And by me I mean me, not just Xemnas, though the way I'm playing him he would.)
Hahannuh, this is something I've struggled with for a long time. There are so many things wrong with how people, especially young people, view the media today...it's hard to list them all. But why? Well, first of all, I think there are a lot of parents who just haven't done a good enough job instilling the idea of "appropreate behavior" in the correct way. A lot of parents are either too lenient or too strict, and either can be a catalyst to the adolescent pulling away for the sake of pulling away. Another problem are the moneymakers. The modern music scene is a good example. Now, I don't want to offend anyone who likes newer styles of music, but the industry has gone way downhill. It's because when something, and not necessarily a good something, becomes popular, these businesspeople think that's all "the kids" will ever know or want, so they look to sign as many copycats as humanly possible. Now, I'm 20, and I know tons of people within a five year age radius who love classic stuff like The Beatles or Queen or bands of that ilk. However, unless the group in question is pre-established by several dacades, no record company will sign 60's/70's-style rock & roll bands anymore because it's "not what the kids are into." This very same theory can be applied to the emergence of these party girl types. The moneymakers think something is popular, so they market the hell out of it. Granted, it's their jobs, and they have every right to make money, but they could be a little smarter about it. A good commentary on this is South Park episode 812: "Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset."
I just got Pokémon Fire Red on GBA, and it is such a blast from the past. It's just like the old Red & Blue, except with better graphics. I'm such a fanboy, though. I named myself Roxas and my rival Sora, and all the party members are named after Org XIII. I started out with a Charmander. I named him Axel, naturally. I caught a Pikachu and named it Larxene, a Caterpie named Marluxia, a Spearow named Xaldin, a Weedle named Xigbar, and a Ratatta named Vexen to even the party out. Eventually I evolved them to their final forms. Along the way I dropped Xigbar for a Meowth/Persian named Zexion. Vexen got let go for an Eevee/Vaporeon named Demyx, and Xaldin was dumped for an Aerodactyl named Saix. I'm on Indego Plateau now. All I need to do is level up some more, beat the Elite Four, and take a trip to Cerulean Cave. Then Marluxia will be getting stored to make way for a Mewtwo named Xemnas. I am SUCH a geek.
Everything I need to know about the world I learned from Calvin & Hobbes. There needs to be a poster like that. *sigh; sings* Memories...
What I want to know is why do they do most of the work earlyu in the game, but towards the end they (and all your "allies") pretty much let you do all the work aside from throwing in a light slap now and then?
Xemnas sighed heavily. "No, Larxene, there will be no getting to the bottom of this. If I know anything about the inhabitants of this castle, it's that one can and will almost never be any straight answers on important issues such as this. They will each lay the blame on the others until no one truly remembers who the guilty party actually is, including said guilty party." This is when he felt Luxord slip from his grasp. Young children should be classified as liquids. he thought. He heard Luxord babble something that sounded like it included the name "Xigbar" and probably "Axel" as well, but he couldn't quite make it out. "Slow down, Luxord," Xemnas said in the most parental/friendly tone he could manage, "What happened to Xigbar?
