"Great! We'll have all kinds of fun together~" Clapping her hands together, she popped back to her feet and smiled at the Duosion. "Thanks so much for your help~" If it was this compliant for everything, she had a feeling it'd come back with her too. "Just let me get my PokeBalls~"
She spun and trotted bouncily back to where she'd left Kel-- What was that on the ground? ... That was her purse. She doubletook and looked every which way for Kelsy; no sign. Kali's jaw dropped. ....What.
After some twenty or thirty seconds just taking it in, she finally rushed the short distance remaining to gather up her purse and what contents had fallen out when it had been apparently-discarded. Brow furrowed, she checked first in the side slot where she kept her money; of course it was gone. In the bottom was a few bills that had been rolled/flattened together and tossed in, but all the rest had been snatched. "That bastard." She... wasn't even angry or upset so much as hurt/betrayed and in disbelief. It looked like he'd just grabbed the cash and run as quick as he could. =_= Well, better that than her whole purse.
...Was that all he'd taken? Recalling the fear when she realized the Gothitelle had her Pokemon, she quickly glanced in that pouch.. and sighed in relief. All she saw was that there were, in fact, still PokeBalls: over three dozen including the empty ones she carried. At a glance, she saw through the semi-transparent tops that a few had something inside, and just assumed they were all there. She went ahead and grabbed three empty balls while she was here, and that pouch was put out of her mind for now. It would be some time before she realized just what had happened.
A quick inventory was taken of her other contents, and-- Really? Her makeup?? ;-; Arceus this bastard was-... She huffed, but rolled her eyes and tried to just grit and bear it. So he apparently had some major issues. Whatever, she could afford more... as soon as she got paid again. =3= It'd be a few weeks, and she'd have to try to avoid Leon finding out about this, but she'd manage... SIGH... Well.. everything else seemed to be in order. All right.. Okay... That was still good, and that.. this.. Was that everything? Uh... This and this, and....
......................What.
Wh-.....
WHAT?
Kali rummaged through the whole bag twice more to confirm, and still she was certain she'd just missed it. ".......WHY WOULD HE TAKE MY TAMPONS?" Resisting the urge to just flop and flail on the floor in her annoyance and frustration, Kali told herself again that it was nothing she couldn't replace and forced herself to stay (relatively) calm. Bastard, bastard, bastard... sigh. Well, she was definitely learning her lesson about trusting random men she met in dark alleyways.. =_=
Tucking everything away, she picked up her purse and turned back to the Pokemon, looking rather more weary. "S..sorry about that... Here, sorry." Coming closer, she offered both coccoons PokeBalls with one hand. "..You want one, Duosion?" she asked, glancing over her shoulder and holding up the last ball with her other hand.

Of course this entire situation was terribly embarrassing, but dammit she knew she'd cared a lot less thirty seconds ago, and kept telling herself there was certainly no sense in starting to care too much now. <_< She could just imagine how many hobos peed on these walls anyway. .. e_e Oh God she'd touched said wall for balance when she stood back up; she needed to wash her hands asap now.. Shuddering, she thought there were probably some wipes/towelettes/something buried in her bag, and decided she'd get those in just a moment.
For now, once she'd gotten her clothes all looking proper again, she moved over to the Duosion and the others. Glancing down the alley, she didn't see Kelsy, but thought little of it; the idea that he was just leaning on the wall next to the alley entrance or the like was such a powerful assumption it didn't even require conscious thought.
"Thank you sweetie~" she said to the Duosion. Kneeling down, she gave the pupas- particularly the Kakuna- a sympathetic look. "Poor things... Does this kind of thing happen often?" At the word 'thing', her eyes trailed to the Meowth. She sighed. "It's too bad you don't have a nice safe clean place to live until you evolve..." In the same ploy she'd done literally dozens of times, her eyes brightened as she 'had an idea'. "..unless! ^w^ How would you like to come home with me? There are lots of Pokemon running around my home, but it's really big and most of them are well-behaved or can be put away if they aren't~ You could probably find a nice quiet room all to yourself--ves." Eh. She guessed she'd take the Cascoon if it wanted to come. She had a Beautifly and two Wurmpinch, but a Dustox would be... okay. If nothing else she could Shadow and sell it some time, if it didn't prove useful in some other way.

Of course, Kali already had two at home, and one of those was Shiny. She had no interest in this rambunctious little-- "Ip!"
Kali let out a small squeak and jumped as the Duosion appeared. ... T_T Oh great. Well it wasn't a Reuniclus, but of course the next-best thing would appear when she had no empty PokeBalls. And dammit she didn't even have time to deal with it but she wanted it and... Sighing through her nose and gritting her teeth slightly, Kali pushed on past the Pokemon to confirm the spot between the dumpsters was empty. ...Annnd that Duosion was still there wasn't it. Well, this could work out. Forcing a sweet smile, she asked, "Hi there.. Would you be a dear and go wait for a minute? ...Over there?" As she glanced over, she--
What was that Meowth playing with? ....Dammit that was an Albino Pokemon was-... no? Right its shell would be a little more beige if albino wouldn't it? Or... The fuck ever it was either Albino or Leucistic and also a Bug and... if it was male she could breed it with Kjaer and if it was female she could breed it with Whatshisname. Yeah she really wanted that. =3= ... :'3 Oh that'd work. Feigning a gasp, she looked more directly do the trio. "Duosion, look! Those poor things. Would you go make that Meowth stop hurting them?"

Surely they'd come across a decent-looking building soon. Surely not every building in the slums looked like either it would collapse if she touched the door or she'd get gangraped for stepping close. ...Over a minute later, Kali began lowering her standards. Surely they'd come across anything that even mildly looked like a business? ..Even a really really shady business? ...A port-a-potty on the side of the street?
....Arceus damn it all, all this walking was doing nothing for helping her hold it. .... Kali finally huffed a heavy- if probably really random from Kelsy's perspective- sigh. She'd been homeless for a few short months once (not counting when an orphanage was 'home', but she couldn't much remember that anyway). As snooty proud as she was, she could certainly humble herself if the need was urgent enough...
Her eye twitched a bit as she looked at Kel. She needed to get far enough away from him, but not so-... She wanted to make sure he couldn't hear her pee, but could hear her if she screamed. All right, looking, looking.... ah! Spying an alley with two dumpsters rather far down the way and no people as far as she could tell (she really hoped no one was already hiding between them), she gave up her hopes of finding anything better reasonably soon. No one should be able to see her from either side of the alley and she'd just take a second, dammit.
"Hey!" She suddenly spun to her companion and forced a.. did that count as a smile? If she'd been any jumpier, she'd be off the ground completely. "Hang on for just a second, I'll be right--" .... Hm. As she'd started to back a step in that direct, her hand idly touched at the strap of her purse; she still wasn't used to carrying it, really. But that made her think.. <_<; She really didn't want another incident with Pokemon thieves.. or regular thieves for that matter. She had her new Scolipede (who she needed to name, ugh; after so many she'd caught, it was getting harder and harder to name them quickly) in her pocket, and most of the Pokemon in her bag were fainted.. Yup.
She laughed uneasily. "Actually... Hold this a second, will you?" :'3 Removing her purse, she practically shoved it in his hands. "Guard it with your life. ...Well.. not.. literally, I probably shouldn't say that in this neighborhood, but guard it with everything short of your life." This laugh was both even more nervous and more genuine. "And don't follow me.. unless you hear me scream for help or something.. heh.. Kay? Kay. I'll be right back." What no she wasn't rambling rapidly she-- okay she was and now she was done and only barely forced herself to keep her pace to a brisk walk instead of a run as she headed down the alley.

Derp. She should have flown Kjaer right out of here from the start. Bahh. Well she'd been Pokemon-hunting.. and now she was walking with Kelsy. She'd feel bad if she was just like 'ohey lol I forgot I can fly see ya loser', heh.. x3;; And she wasn't sure how Kjaer would do carrying both..
She grinned a bit sheepishly when he mentioned not having been able to do anything (woops again), but relaxed more as it seemed they were on the same wavelength. ...A passing thought may have fluttered through her mind on the note of what he may have looked like a few months ago, but it was quickly (mostly) banished. "Heh, yeah. Sooner we get outta here the better, though." ...Come to think of it, Reyna could teleport, too.. but they didn't know these streets well enough to cover any reasonable ground without... yeh. They'd probably either have to go a long way, much farther than necessary, or short little within-line-of-sight bursts that would more wear the Pokemon out than provide any notable advantage in travel time. Yaw well.
.... Damn she wished she could find a bathroom, though. They finally neared the mouth of one alley, but the 'street' it entered didn't really look like anything but a really wide one- garbage everywhere, and if one building wasn't abandoned it probably should have been. Ugh. Kali shuddered.

|D So I am smart and got a good idea. X'3 I will start uploading one species at a time in order to keep the mystery alive longer. XPP So, BEHOLD THE TORCHICS. (Not many were picked. :B) Jay's NamiName: Species: Torchic/Mienfoo [Torchfoo] Gender: Ability: Type: Fire/Fighting Personality: (super fiery hotheaded battle awesome and will peck your eyes out if you cross it!! D<... but also super sweet to friends and loves cheering them up and getting snuggled and petted. Super smart and slowly learning human speech; can read. Has a strange habit of sitting on heads (which may become problematic upon evolution)) Tere's ArcadieName: Species: Torchic/Croagunk Gender: Ability: Type: (Fire/Poison, Fire/Fighting, or Poison/Fighting) Personality: (views Arcadie as "mommy" and clings to her and worships her; follows any order without question (unless it's 'get away' or 'stop staring adoringly at me it's getting creepy', etc :B). Oddly prissy considering its looks and loves playing dress-up (with permission).)

X'3 So.. technically "writing on" isn't "painting", so we're gonna say Van was disqualified. |D Unfortunately, Nik did paint his. (On the light orange egg; base color is unaltered.) And how he loved his egg. >X3 It was the BEST, and he couldn't stop snickering. ...It didn't look right, though. Not by itself. .. :B He didn't know if he could paint two eggs of the same color, though. Instead, he went out and found a small mirror and set up next to his egg. |D Muuuuch better. (X"3 Uncensored being given to Tere in IM.)

Re:Hybrids:
XDDDDDDDDDDDD AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH<3
------------
To everyone:
8'DDDDDD SG IS DUMB PLEASE PICK TWO TYPES FOR EACH OF YOUR HYBRIDS (unless you got something like a.. idk Budew/Sunkern that's obvsly pure Grass, etc). You MUST specify these types in the PC to be able to battle with them. :B Thank you.
-------
Also:
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD"8 I forgot Nikki's eegggggggg. I..... I want to replace Van's. :X Anyone mind if I do an even shittier egg? It's.. not really ADDING, just changing, and Van's hasn't been hatched yet. I'd be cool if anyone else did something similar, personally.

"I hear ya. This place is starting to creep me out, and the main Pokemon I was looking for just showed up and tried to rob me." This laugh was more uncomfortable. "..Yyyeah, I think I'll just raise a Gothita if I decide I need a Gothitelle that badly; I'm avoiding this side of town from now on."
... A thought occurred. .........Heeeh,, woops? She uh... She'd fainted all of his Pokemon, and even if he was a lot bigger and certainly at least somewhat stronger than her (she'd say quite a bit from the look of him, but then Kali was stronger than she looked; he could be weaker than he looked in the same regard).. this place wasn't really safe. :'3;; Yeah hey about that. 'Suddenly' having an idea (which she may have overplayed in her expression to emphasize it was definitely spontaneous and not from this thought process because she certainly wasn't hoping he wouldn't realize she probably went overboard on their battle), she smiled up at him. "Hey~ You should walk with me until we get out of these alleys, or as far as our paths align. We'll be safer together, nyeh? :3"
Which.. you know.. mostly meant that she could protect him. But she supposed if they came across any thugs or shady characters, the two of them/Kelsy in general seemed a lot less inviting a target than just Kali by herself. ... Heh. She.. would honestly be lying if she said she didn't occasionally wish Leon were more 'big and strong' like this (even if she was quite glad he wasn't so big, heh.. :B It looked fine on Kelsy but.. yeah she did love being able to hold Leon so close and just..heeeee<3). ... |3 Of course, when not trying to repel thieves and rapists (to which he was probably as much a magnet as her really... xD;, she did muuuuch prefer Leon's oh-so-pretty(-if-incomplete) face~ ^w^

Spinning on her heels, she half-expected to see some sort of horror slasher axe murderer, though her logical mind kept telling her it was probably a rat or cat or Pokemon or nothing; instead, Kali found herself starting at--

XD It's not RAPEFACE, it's LITERALLY "83"!
ALSO!!
HEY GUYS. xD For added fun, almost every char had a little bit posted of PAINTING the egg.. Everyone should post reactions to their hybrids, too! X33 (You don't haaaave to, but it'd be great.) Assume any random location and as if it had been a few weeks since the event.
-----
OH ALSO~ :3 Since I'm pretty sure everyone is going to end up with hybrids that are obviously more suited for one char than another (unless I keep rolling like Jayme and Faith olololol). Sooooo~ |3
If you painted between 3 and 5 eggs, you may have ONE free trade between two characters. (:B I was gonna say 1-5, but then realized derp you can't trade one egg, and with two... Sorry MC, but if you could trade your only two eggs who you picked wouldn't matter AT ALL, so yeah. x'3; )
If you painted between 6 and 10 eggs, you may have TWO free trades, each between two characters.
If you painted between 11 and 15 eggs, you may have THREE free trades, each between two characters.
:3 Enjoy. (Obviously you'll need to see what you got before deciding, and then are required to post here saying what's being traded if you do decide to trade any. x3)

\o/ HUZZAH! :B So I should explain now how I'm gonna do this. You're NOT going to get eggs with hatch dates to throw at mods. Instead, I'm gonna be spriting my ass off (with a bit of help from some of the other staff, mostly Tere x3), and when your sprites are done, that egg will be instantly hatched. :> You get to pick gender and ability; I will give minimal guidelines for personality and you get to flesh from that. I will tell you who hybrids belong to, but not which egg it was if they had multiples (though some might be obvious hurrrrr). This will slowly reveal which eggs are which species (for their base part, anyway) while keeping the mystery around as long as I can. |3 X"3; Also I don't know how I ended up with three for Kitsunaii here it just happened. Sorry. |D So without further ado, here's the first batch. ------------------- Doom's GarcianName: Species: Albino Whismur/Delibird [Delismur] Gender: Ability: Personality: (somewhat sicky, frail; oddly terrified of bright lights and electric outlets; I wonder which egg this hatched from it is a total mystery) Fish's Fang (Sprite by Tere) Name: Species: Happiny/Shiny-Mawile [Mawpinny] Gender: (probably female, male technically possible) Ability: Personality: (mischievous, slightly mean but doesn't mean much harm, fearless) Fish's Ty (Sprite by Elayne) Name: Species: Melanistic Sunkern/Oddish [Oddkern] Gender: Ability: Personality: (extremely pragmatic, rational, tactless, hides behind cynical shell) Flora's FloraName: Species: Minun/Patrat [Patrinun] Gender: Ability: Personality: (cautious, but level-headed and helpful in a crisis; sometimes questions trainer's authority, energetic; bad with words/tact, how does i social; loves palindromes) Jay's Jack (Sprite by Tere) Name: Species: Azurill/Lotad [Azurotad] Gender: Ability: Personality: (distrustful, shy toward most people, looking for one true love/mate for life, shows a lot of common sense/very practical... usually; does sometimes love to use floatyleaf as a surfboard. Also refers to lilypad tail as 'floatyleaf'.) Jay's JaymeName: Species: Plusle/Audino [Plusino] Gender: Ability: Personality: (ultimate pacifist, often a little depressed when exposed to or reminded of conflict; bad with words/always says wrong thing, but means really well; often tries to hide emotions to avoid risk of conflict/offense; useless under pressure/in a crisis; will not fight under any circumstance, usually not even to protect others; will throw self in the line of fire if friends or innocents really can't defend themselves, but won't defend self, just takes the blows and hopes to buy time or wear foe out; tries to be an optimist, favors healing and helping) Kitsunaii's ClarissaName: Species: Igglybuff/Snubble [Snubblybuff] (Easter-painted) Gender: Ability: Personality: (chaotic, emotional, avoids fame/praise, needs space/freedom, often overestimates self but not 'cocky'/bragging, loves human kids, hates really young Pokemon (other than self)) Kitsunaii's Cricket (Sprite by Elayne) Name: Species: Exeggcute/Sunkern [Sunkeggcute] Gender: Ability: Personality: (very alert/perceptive, focuses easily, somewhat studious, loves patterns and repetition, discreet, depends too much on others) Kitsunaii's Rex:Name: Species: Sunkern/Bellsprout [Sproutkern] Gender: Ability: Personality: (:B Have fun with this.) MC's AriName: Species: Plusle/Shiny Zorua [Plusorua] Gender: Ability: Personality: (diplomatic, street smart, likes/wants/tries to be in charge, quick thinker, a bit of a slob and terribly unorganized physically) SongOfWindchimes's FaithName: Species: Pidgey/Gligar [Gligidgey] Gender: Ability: Personality: (explosive temper, only likes fighting when s/he wants to fight and not for others, misses social cues, pushy, minimalist, brilliant, I SWEAR I rolled all of this with dice x'3) Tere's Arcadie:Name: Species: Farfetch'd/Woobat [Woofetch'd] Gender: Ability: Personality: (have fun) Tere's Tom:Name: Species: Minun/Sentret [Mintret] Gender: Ability: Personality: (something that annoys Tom and pleases Rosa :B)

But this one was just... seredipitous, she supposed. Heh. She was happy with him.
But now she needed to get out of here. She felt a good deal better about walking down the streets now with a fully healthy (as well as very large and apparently powerful) Pokemon on her person, but if that little incident hadn't confirmed her suspicions that this place was a shithole she wasn't sure what would. She started to place the newly-filled Ball into her pouch, then thought better and slipped it in her pocket instead. Her pants were pretty tight (as usual), and keeping them all in there would be really uncomfortable even in their shrunken form, but just the one would be useful in case some jackass got the dumb idea to take her purse again. =3=
She slung said purse back over her shoulder, then, and.. hesitated. Wow, it really was quiet.

"R-...really?" When Jae thanked him, and it seemed like it was really a real thing that was going to happen, Kitty managed to smile a bit through her tears. In another moment, she released her grip on Jae to fling herself at Felis, clinging tight to him instead. "Thank you so much.."

[ Alex / Delilah ] [scrolly:h(280),w(400),sy,as(margin:15px 5px 15px 30px;padding-right:10px;)]Alex snorted at Iris's remark. ...It was funny because it was true, hurrr. "....Why am I tempted to turn this into a survival contest too.." she laughed. Inside, Lilah could have screamed, and possibly pulled out some hair. Outside, she'd flatlined.. with an occasional twitch. ".... I have plenty of fun. ...I just don't. sing.." Gods that wasn't going to be enough to get her away... .... Ugh. <_< She seriously thought of telling Carly she was sure she'd do fine at fucking, so obviously that meant she should more too; but aside from no actual proof the girl was a virgin or even close (as much as her attitude at times made Lilah suspect it), she had a feeling Lyall would not be so fond of that..... She sighed heavily aloud. ... Nope. She had nothing she didn't think would make it worse... =3= [/scrolly][/td][/tr][/table]

Psyduck is in a cool-colored egg. ----------------------------------------------------------------- :B Eggs. Alaric saw a red egg. Alaric saw a blue egg. Alaric grinned and grabbed some gold and black paint. He wondered how many people would get it. |3 --- Kali painted an Easter Nibbler, because she could. :B --- Hunter painted a badger. ...What that was totally a badger. Shut up she loved it. --- Delilah was very artsy.... but Easter was one of her favorite holidays. So instead of anything awesome, she painted a fluffy bunny with hearts all around it, because what could possibly beat a bunny? She then got bored and decided to make a traditional egg too. --- Van happened across the festival and noticed the egg-painting going on, and snuck in for a few minutes. Finding an egg the color of aged parchment, he began scrawling a passage from a favored novel onto the egg. ...Of course, given the paint quality, large brush, small font, and his total chicken scratch, it was all but illegible even to him when he was done. ...Ah well. Maybe with a magnifying glass and a serious effort some judge or passerby might recognize it...? Eh, good luck. --- Alessia Egilart stood next to a lovely blue egg with lighter blue swirls and markings brushed over it. It was simple, but pretty, she thought. Not far from her, an egg lay alone. It was sky blue, literally painted like the sky, and on all sides, top and bottom included, various birds flew around it. From where she sat, she could see a cardinal, a blue jay, and a... hawk of some kind? ...Heh. She certainly wasn't about to say out loud she didn't recognize the bird, especially if her husband was in earshot. ...Said husband, however, was suspiciously absent, which would have seemed odd to anyone who knew them, because he shouldn't have had any qualms about standing next to his wife with her egg. In fact, it was really a little odd for him to run off too far from her at an event like this, where he didn't know too very many of the attendants. It was almost as if he was avoiding or hiding something. ...Cough. [hint: he loves birds and doesn't love 'frivolous' activities *SHOT*] --- Ava wasn't really into this whole thing, but it seemed the whole family came, so why not.. Picking up a light green egg, she ended up doodling some leaves on it. Eh. She liked it well enough she guessed. --- Eli always liked Christmas more than Easter. It was much more vibrant and jolly! Easter was fun too, but it was also really soft and kind of somber, and didn't have as much good candy as Halloween. So Eli painted his egg like a present-- Christmas or Birthday, take your pick-- instead. xB --- Ryan wasn't really good at this sort of thing, but Kitty wanted to come participate in the egg-painting so badly and.... /sigh... All right fine. He found a nice red egg and.... ................................................. Wow that... Was that even fire? .... He was going to blame this on his head injury. Obviously he was just still struggling with some things from his concussion and he absolutely did not just suck that badly at this. (God he hoped.) Meanwhile, Kitty painted a (crappy) pink kitty on an egg, along with some pink and purple hearts, stars, squiggles, etc. ^w^ It was byooteemous. --- ..............What the hell was Alex doing?? God she was trying to blend these colors; it looked so cool when she'd seen some other people doing it. A little after starting she realized she wasn't even sure what the fuck colors she was messing with fuck her life. Dammit what kind of design was she even.......... You know what? The rules said 'paint an egg'. She fucking painted it, there, done. Where was the food in this place? --- Crystal was enjoying the event more than most; this was her time to shine~ She was an artist (and not a nurse), and she was going to show that~ With a lot of effort, but fairly little time, she ended up with a wonderful spring day: partly cloudy sky, rolling hills, a cherry tree nearly done shedding its blossoms, and a field of colorful flowers in the foreground stretching down part of the bottom of the egg~

Ugh. :"3 SO. Lots of changes yeah. *sigh* You guys have probably noticed the er... lack of names on the list today. So let me explain each. Darebear posted her official leave a while ago, so I just finally got around to updating. Obviously she can't mod if she's not even a member, nyeh? She has been changed to a new "Retired Staff" rank, however, and is welcome to come right back if there is an open position at any time. Caden hasn't been on in ages and popped in the other day to apologize and say he'd probably be gone a good while longer. He is also Retired Staff and welcome to repromotion when he comes back. Floramei hasn't been active either almost at all, and certainly not as a mod, and fair is fair; contrary to some belief I don't play favorites. :B Of course she's Retired Staff too. Kero hasn't logged in, not even to chat in the box, since February 2. She posted no official absence, and left much too shortly after threatening to quit (twice) for comfort; I've received no definite word back from Dare on the matter, but upon asking her she said she didn't think Kero planned to return either. Due to the temper tantrums and unsuitable behavior in the past, she has been demoted to Member rather than Retired Staff; she is certainly welcome to reapply if she returns, but it won't be no-questions-asked. She'll just have to reprove certain standards and such. Please understand this is not targeting, as there are other past staff-- Ryuujin and Daci off the top of my head-- who are also quite welcome to reapply if they ever return but will need to prove more than some due to past displays of immaturity in various manners. Palkia.... =__= *sigh* A lot of you were here for that outburst in the chatbox earlier. I've talked to Jay about her own stepping out of line and sort of starting it, but knowing that I was doing so didn't seem to appease Pal any. He is determined to believe that everyone hates him and targets him; despite admitting he is a distant person who is not receptive to warmth or attempts to get close by others, he apparently feels that people 'targeted' him and were intentionally rude/cold (he never responded the several times I alluded to his minor idolization of Cora he'd been going on about only recently). Despite some two hours of trying to calm him down, he only got worse instead of better, stating things like "I just don't like you guys" and other less professional wordings on the same line. Toward the end, it came to "whenever I find my career, no one is ever going to ask me what happened on VC", so why should he care about us or what we think of him? =/ At some point, he asked me to remove him from Staff and I obliged, but by the end as things went from bad to worse and worse, I finally told him he's not allowed to come back- not even to post an apology as I'd advised him toward the beginning. ....So yeah. :|I'll stand for all the days of my life I've wasted arguing with Kero over petty things, but I will not stand for someone repeatedly talking down me and my friends and my work and saying none of it holds any value because it isn't 'real'. <__< When I was a kid, my dad used to get so mad at me for 'wasting' time online and such; I use almost none of the skills he encouraged in my real adult life, but I'm STILL friends with nearly all of the 'not real' people I met on my first forum. Two feet away or two continents away, friends are the best thing in the world. What good is money, status, fame, skill, power, or anything else with no one to share it with? Love is just lust without friendship, and blood doesn't tend to mean much, or at least not as much as it would if you're big on blood, if you aren't friends with your family. I don't care if this makes me 'stubborn' or 'annoying' for 'refusing to see anything but my beliefs'. :> I'm also sorry if that little spiel makes me sound like I'm trying to be an "epitome of virtue". ... X'3;;; That is ALSO quoting Pal. ... I laughed so hard I teared up a little. Apparently doing my best to mediate and promote tolerance (but not avoiding all conflict in the process) is a bad thing? And/or even tries to negate the fact I'm also an abrasive ass and none of you who know me will combat that for a second? 'xD; (I see Elayne and/or Cora going "...D: Kind of, but-" If you have to try that hard it isn't worth combating. x'3 Don't feel bad for admitting what's true even if it doesn't sound nice.<3) :"3 ANNNNNYWAY. Sorry as always for rambling as always. ---------------------------- :D IN HAPPIER NEWS DAMMIT.YAY FOR DOOM. I know he hasn't been RPing really, but he's at least ONLINE, and hey. I don't play MY chars all the time. We all know he's a great writer (with a fun, unique, and interesting style), and he's willing to try even though he's unsure about it, which is why he's a Trial Mod. No pressure, just seeing how it goes. ^^ I know he's skilled enough, and I'm sure most of you know too~ :3 It's mostly a matter of seeing if he can manage the time/muse and, moreso, of building his confidence. I'm.... not really sure who else is here with both the time and skill to mod? x3; (No offense to some of our less advanced writers of course<3 We love you guys, and everyone I can think of is improving and doing great~ ^^) :'3 BUT if anyone thinks they could do it, please feel free to shoot me a PM expressing you're interest and we can talk! New? That's cool! We've got Trial for a reason. :3 ---------- 'x3; But yeah.... orz I really hope everyone is okay and I'm sorry for the drama earlier and also that everything happened so suddenly at once due to my putting some off for so long and yeah. Everyone... good?

[ Alex / Delilah ] [scrolly:h(280),w(400),sy,as(margin:15px 5px 15px 30px;padding-right:10px;)]Lilah chuckled at Lexi's visual response when she tried it. "There, you see now? You don't have to get wasted on expensive liquors or nuclear horse piss-tasting beers to have fun drinking at a party. You could probably drink five or <i>more</i> of those little things and might get a headache at worst." She laughed lightly again. ...What? No she wasn't being a horrible influence on Lyall's baby sister. No more than he himself anyway probably most likely ssh. Alex grinned sheepishly at Iris, wondering just what sort of public embarrassment she had in mind, before Carly shot it down; Alex rolled her eyes to that. "Pff. Fiiine. ...I'd say we just won't tell you if you're worst, but then you'd know anyway if a loser wasn't declared.. heh." As Carly turned to ask Lyall, Alex leaned toward (and maybe barely to a point of actually touching) Iris. Quietly, she mumbled, "If one of us wins, we can count the other as the 'loser' unless it's really close. If we both lose we can always ask Lyall next time we both work." After a moment, she gave a slightly dumb grin and chuckled, sounding a little... well... derpier than before, though she wasn't too bad (yet). "If he remembers the contest by then."'..welcome to join us Lilah..' What. All Lilah's humor fell away. Dammit all she'd stayed too long, all right. Um. Uhhh. Fuck. Silently sighing, she tried to force a friendly smile and only managed to come off as nervous. "Oh no, eh... I don't sing. ...Like ever." How in less than ten words did she still manage to overexplain? Sigh. Right so.. she was topping off her drink now and.. maybe she'd get lucky: she didn't really want to rush off and seem rude(r than she already had), but maybe they'd let her just kind of slink away...?
