Raiha

[color=royalblue]No, you wouldn't of gotten the picture. This is just better. I can tell you what to eat, I can even mail you the right book. When you're not hungry, you don't realize you are until you take a bite of something. You can ask your family to buy veggies. I'm sure they won't make a fuss about it. *sarcastic look*[/color]

[color=royalblue][i]She awoke to something tickling her nose. Kell struck out and hit something hard. Bombolurina purred and rubbed herself up against Kell. The female half elf sat up and pated her roommate until he awoke. Claudio looked frazzled, and he needed to shave, but Kell leaned over and kissed his cheek anyways.[/i] Kell: G'morning dear. Claudio: ...argh. [i]She laughed, a bright silver sound, and stood. Bombolurina leapt onto her shoulders, where she would remain all day long. Kell ripped open the shades, despite her lack of clothing and opened the window. Claudio pulled the sheets over his head and she promptly yanked them out of reach.[/i] Kell: UP! [i]She walked to the bathroom and pulled on her black "outfit" if it could be called that. Her kitty purred and nibbled the strap. Kell brushed her hair and twisted it up, securing it with two silver pins. Then she began the process of putting on the jewelry, four silver hoops in each ear, followed by a black choker of jet beads, then finally her garters and the paraphinalea that went with it. Lastly she tied on the black apron and secured the bow with a special box knot. Time to open up shop. Claudio was rising slowly, and she contemplated livening him with a dash of cool beer....but it would stain the sheets...[/i] Bombolurina: Just do it. Kell: ....nah, poor guy's exhausted. Bombolurina: From gods knows what. [i]The two laughed and opened the doors leading to the bar and Inn. Another perfect day.[/i][/color]

[/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=royalblue]So marry me my darling love! Let us sail away together on the Sea of Knowledge! *dramatic gesture*[/COLOR]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Semjaza Azazel [/i] [B] And of course, The Phantom Tollbooth. It's a kids' book, but it's so damn cool. Everyone owes it to themselves to read it. [/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=royalblue]WOOHOO! I have that book and I read it at least once every couple of months. I read it outloud to some students...and around only half got it. :D I also reccomend all Brian Jacques books. Sure they're sorta like....for kids, but the descriptions and such are very lovely, storytelling is marvelous. They're also good for reading outloud.[/COLOR]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by dbzanimegrl17 [/i] [B][color=blue][size=1]Does she ALWAYS wear that? If she does, how does your roommate react to that? lol. So §corpio's my sweetheart, right? Okay, a couple more questions: 1. Do we get to converse with non-player characters, too? (This might have been answered, but I'm just dense) These are for Raiha: 2. How much do we get payed? (tee hee XD) 3. And are my hours correct for my work day? (10:00-4:00) ~Meow... o_O;~[/color][/size] [/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=royalblue]Lol, yeah, she wears an apron sometimes, so she's not totally indecent. I think. Well, it varies. That's her usual working outfit. 2: More than living wage, definetly enough to live on. You also get tips if you work in the bar, which would be helpful. 3. Your morning hours are from 10 to 12. You have an hour break for lunch. From 1 to 8, you're booked. Chores include laundry, that's alot of linen we go through, checking guests in and out, and making sure people are happy. Which is why you have morning hours.[/COLOR]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Harry [/i] [B]you should stop eating. I mean food only makes you fat so why do you eat it? [/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=royalblue]Maybe you missed a memo, but not eating leads to serious health problem in your not so far away future. When you don't have enough food to suplement your activities, like, moving, your body will take away from itself. Your will burn carbs first, then proteins, and finally fat. It's the last thing to go, which is why anorexic people are so sick and hideous looking. Osteoporosis will set it, because your body takes from it's bone structure to give energy. Your hair will fall out and your skin will begin to lose it's shine. Not only that, you'll feel ill and weak all the time. Your bra size will drop, your bruises and canker sores will never go away, and if you get a flu or a cold, you will never get better. If that doesn't scare you into eating, it can get worse.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=royalblue]Thank gods, someone to doctor my pets. My snakes, lizards, spiders, wolves, and my darling kitty, Bombolurina. I was hoping you'd come around. Enclosed, btw, is a shot of how my character generally looks.[/COLOR]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by dbzanimegrl17 [/i] [B][size=1][color=blue]I'm between 5'1" and 5'4".... I haven't checked in awhile... I weigh only 84 lbs. Okay people. Is that normal? I eat a LOT of junk food, but I also eat healthy food. I'd say I'm a little thin, but it's not my fault!! Wait... that is, too... Darn metabolism... -___- SOO... hopefully no one wants to kill me for being sooo small and petit, yet very strong (I can kick two people's a**es at one time, even when they weigh twice as much as me. Trust me, I've proven it). That is what gets my friends so angry at me that I have to resort to hiding. Okay, laterzez!! I gotta go back to hiding in the trash can, in the garage, miles away...[/color][/size] [/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=royalblue]A definete height would help here to determine how thin you are. If you're 5'1", you're rather slender. If you're 5'4" you are PAINFULLY thin. I already said that I'm two inches taller than that, and 118lbs. and I am thin. The only real weight on me is the muscles in my legs. Mostly from dance. I eat junk and health food, mostly healthy. The metabolism is lightning fast for the both of us, but it slows down around your mid 20s. Trust me. I wouldn't kill you for being small. You can't help it. But I will kill you Dayday, for eating an apple a day. That is not nearly enough to sustain a healthy lifestyle. If you doubt me, read [b]Eve and Grace[/b], my nonfiction story in the Poetry thread. You need five fruits and vegtables a day. 8 glasses of water, protein and some simple carbs. Without that, your body will slowly degenerate, taking from your bone marrow to sustain life. That will lead to osteoporosis, and can also cause serious birth defects when you get pregnant. Especially because you're young, your body will take from itself to keep going. Eat or die.[/COLOR]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by animehuman [/i] [B]I think you are all crazy, if telekinesis was real, you could guess my password. Silly kids. [/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=royalblue]Silly kid yourself you moron. Telekenisis is the power to manipulate objects mentally. Telepathy would allow me to know your password, Social Security number, IP address, real address, phone number, and passport files. Not that I would want to know.[/COLOR]

[color=royalblue][i]She howled and sank her claws into the corpse, ripping anything she could feel, then recovered her mind and slunk over to Ben. He had removed the poison, cleaned the wound and was patching him up. Rena curled around them, scanning in every direction. Yet another scorpion came into view and she arched her back, spitting venemously. It charged and she leapt. She avoided both the pincers and tail with a spring, then landed on its back, paw pinning the tail to the ground. It struggled and tried to squirm, only to have it's neck severed with a hefty bak kick from her paws. Rena howled and savaged the tail and pincers to the ground. Ben blinked to clear his vision of screaming wildcat and pouring scorpion blood.[/i] Rena: ...idiots. Alaris: You're insane! Rena: ...that's what they tell me. [i]She laughed and lightfooted over the corpse, turning to scan once more.[/i][/color]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]Vondeux stood and started a bath for herself. Rhain appeared several minutes later and escorted Ariel back to her quarters. Vondeux poured in the bathsalts liberally and imersed herself in the steaming water. Another noble on the road to perfection. Of course, there was very little time to prepare...but she'd think of something. Ariel showed promise, quite unlike a few other of her students. And if she succeeded, Vondeux could go into her quiet retirement. For a change. She closed her eyes and let her mind go to rest. From far away, she could hear Kynjaka speaking. Close by, she could sense someone tallying the list she had prepared. Nearer still she could hear her white elf pacing in his room, no doubt feeling the aftereffects starting to kick in. Poor fool. The water grew cooler and she opened her eyes. Time to go prepare a few other things. She stood and toweld herself dry.[/i][/COLOR]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by wrist cutter [/i] [B]People enjoy sex when they're doing it too. The consequences can be horrible. [/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=royalblue]Oh Would you GIVE IT A REST already? I enjoy sex. I know the consequences that Could but Won't happen. This isn't about sex, that's a stupid argument, and you're starting to piss me off. Magdalena is right you know....food is great. So is finding a good suit. So is dressing comfortably. But, I DO have self esteem. If you don't believe me, check out my more recent posts in my Ta-da thread in the Picture forum. We have no reason to be ashamed of ourselves, so yeah. Go girls.[/COLOR]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Heaven's Cloud [/i] [B][color=indigo]Well I am just over 6 feet tall and weigh just under 200 lbs. My body fat index is normal so I am not really worried about my wieght...although I do have a little belly...[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=royalblue]*Pokes it* Wohoo! I'm 5'6", 118lbs. Officially anyways, it fluctuates alot. I weigh alot more by the end of the day. My Body Fat Index is like....loooooooow, because I eat right and excercise alot. Like, every day.[/COLOR]

[color=royalblue]Just to clarify, we're not MARRIED yet. We're just living together. *gasp* Scandalous! And a few other things: So we can't have lived here for more than two years, is that what you're saying? I got a tad confused there. Oh wait. You founded the town and we moved in right afterwards. Got it. I can't be a mix, or did you change your mind? Dad threatened to pull the plug before I could confirm..... This isn't just for me btw, it's for everyone else that wants to have half this and half that characters. ...Or you could be nice and make an exception. Do we have trading caravans that come in every so often to keep us stocked? Or is there a lovely farm nearby that provides us with produce and livestock?[/color]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]Vondeux lapped at the sweetness, before replacing her lips with her palm and catching the rest. She brought her hand to Ariel's mouth and pressed down. Ariel cautiously tasted herself, then drank it, licking her hand clean. Vondeux brought her mouth up to hers again and kissed her sweetly. The girl put her arms around her neck and moaned softly. Vondeux held Ariel like a baby, before breaking the kiss and running her hand down her torso.[/i] "Anthing else you'd like to know?"[/COLOR]

[COLOR=royalblue]Name: Kell Hanani Pronounced: Kh-eh-Lal Han[d]-nay-nee Age: 19 Race: Human/elf; mostly human. Gender: Female Occupation: Inkeeper/Waitress House Type: see attatchment. Okay, so it's not on a hill, but you get the idea. The Inn is the thingy downhill a ways, sorta next to it at Black Haven....and THAT is made out of stone. Looks: Tall, pale, willowy, definetly the type suitable for one night stands. Slender, but powerful, probably from lifting heavy kegs of beer and wine by herself. Hair is dark brown streaked with silver [from the elvish side], eyes are honey with red flecks, nails are painted silver. Wears a light tank top and matching short skirt and apron. Sometimes she just wears the apron and nothing else. Small Bio: The dual owner of the best Tavner/Inn in town and in need of some serious hired help. Mostly she runs the Inn, but that doesn't take too long. It usually gets buisness at night, so during the day she runs the Happy Hour and waits on tables. She'll give you the drink to drown your sorrows and the ride of your life if you're her type. She's a compassionate soul underneath the devil may care exterior, and adopts animals. Mostly venemous reptiles and big dogs. She has a pet cat, who can be found either on her shoulders as she works, or scratching the eyes out of a pervert patron. Why? We don't know. The animals are a shadow of what she really does, which is keep the places clean. She can fight like a devil, which saves ALOT of time. Anyone getting fresh with her will get thrown into the nearest unyielding wall. But most of the time she's a darling. If you need a job at either establishment, come to her. She's the official employer.[/COLOR]

[color=royalblue]Rippley's Believe It Or Not. Plenty of stuff like that. I never bothered rationalizing this whole telekenesis thing. It's very similar to religion. Does God exist? I can't see him, so he's not there. But think about the counter argument: "You can see the effects of the wind but you can't see the wind." What then? You can see people manipulate objects with their mind but you can't see how.[/color]

[color=royalblue][i]Vondeux purred low in her throat and bit down softly, feeling her pulse flutter wildly against her teeth. One bite was all it took, but that would defeat the purpose. Instead, she tongued her way lower to the space between Ariel's breasts. She kissed the space softly, then placed her hands over her chest. Massaging softly, watching Ariel's cheeks color, and her eyelids flicker. She smiled at the young woman's changing visage and nipped her flesh ever so gently. Ariel yelped and bit down on her lower lip. Vondeux ground her hips against hers, then kissed her left breast softly, grazzing her teeth over the nipple. Bitting down and twisting slightly. The younger drow shuddered violently and Vondeux paused.[/i] "Did that hurt?" "No....it was...nice." [i]Ariel felt drugged, like she was drunk. She wrapped her arms around Vondeux's neck, feeling so sedated.[/i][/color]

[color=royalblue]I watched the full Japanese versions, cursing, violence, blood, gore and all, and that infamous black cat. The animation could be worse I suppose, it advances quite far in the latter episodes, especially when the Angel Arms come into play. Which are animated superbly, and are quite unsettling. His friends get over themselves eventually. Meryl grows up and losens up slightly, Millie loses her innocence belive it or not, and Wolfwood shows character. Alot of character. In fact, my friend and I bawled our eyes out during one of the later episodes. Legato is very....there is no word to describe him. And the animation of him is awesome. So is the concept art on the special edition DVDs, which I reccomend. Trigun moves very slowly in the beggining, which is why DVDs always are better than sitting around waiting for Cartoon Network to get a move on it. If you think the last ten episodes are dull, you must be jaded beyond all reason.[/color]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]Her touch was gentle, sensual, not in the least perverted. Ariel moaned softly, feeling warm and safe, for once. She looked behind and saw Vondeux's face. The Val'Shagress was being quiet, reflective, and so lovely. She looked forward again and felt breath on her ear, then teeth bitting softly on it. She shivered at the new sensation, feeling it for the first time, as an adult would. She sighed and leaned back. Vondeux put her arms around her from behind and let Ariel rest her head on Vondeux's naked chest. She closed her eyes, then felt her fingers trail down her side. Then to her navel, swirling in a circle, before slipping lower. Ariel gasped for air at the sudden shock, then her eyes rolled into the back of her head. Blinding white light, assailing her vision, knocking her better judgement out the window.[/i] "Something wrong dear...?" "No....it's...it's..." [i]Vondeux laughed and shoved her fingers in deeper, kissing the side of her face ever so gently.[/i][/COLOR]

[color=royalblue]Oh gee wristcutter, real way to get to a girls' heart there. I reccomend excercise, not lack of food, and ignore the swimsuit ****. I hate doing it, so I buy speedo one piece, black thingys. One piece is flattering, nothing hangs out and nothing gets shoved into awkward positions. Black always makes you look thinner, and it accentuates good curves. That last part does only two good things for me. Then again, I have very little to stress over, except my lack of chest. I'm 5'6", 116lbs., and slender. The people who do swimsuits generally aim at the people built like me, so your best bet is to tell people that look down on you are asses and have low self esteem; they make fun of you. So in conclusion: "Buy a one-piece and be flattered."[/color]

[color=royalblue]Well, according to yet another geisha book I read which supports some of Golden's writings. Some. I knew he had spoken with her, but I didn't know about the finer details. I spoke with my Japanese exchange student friends and they said that geisha were high end prostitutes, so I suppose...it's all in who you know. The Geisha book....can't remember the title, but it had lovely photographs, national geographic quality, and was generally very informative and factual. She interviewed more than a dozen geisha and people who work with geisha. The end result was well worthit. Sure the photos were partially indecent and such, but the Japanese never had reservations about nudity.[/color]

[color=royalblue]Incidentally James, the title Memiors of a Geisha is the title of yet another book by Mr. Arthur Golden. His is about a fictional geisha's life, her name is Nitta Sayuri, and her troubles are many. I reccomend it strongly if you prefer fiction to nonfiction. It's full of lyrical writing, prosey phrases, and lovely poetry in many forms. Generally, I enjoyed it out of the 100 other books on my summer reading lists. It's very adult, surprise surprise. But well worth it.[/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by James [/i] [B][color=#707875] If you talk about untapped potential of the brain, I'd only say that it would relate to the ability to memorize things...or to perform very complex mathematics. But I can't see any way for a lump of flesh in your skull to magically maniuplate objects that sit on the other side of the room. lol[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=royalblue]And that's why we're only using so much of our minds. And why we can't accept what we "think" is impossible. Humans always fear the unknown, or dismiss it as pure fantasy. Which also explains a few wars and ethnic cleansings.[/COLOR]
