[size=1][color=darkslategray]I'd like to add that WW2 made that Yoshi picture. Props to WW2! Mah homeslice![/size][/color]

[center][IMG]http://img9.exs.cx/img9/2826/chp57bs.jpg[/IMG][/center] "Annie, who are you going to take with you to meet the Charles?" Kane stretched and yawned. The night was built around endless plans and last minute requests. All of the bandits lazed about the Lounge. Annie scratched her sides and stood up. She had been thinking hard on who to take with her. It was a hard decision; all of her bandit females were quite sexy. "Man, I don't know. All of the girls are to die for.." Annie looked around to see most of them snoozing. "Need some help?" A voice echoed through the room as the door opened. The bandits who were awake turned around to see a robed figure. He was wearing a pair of reflective sunglasses. They gleamed mysteriously. His black robe swished as he approached Annie. "Ah, you made it," she reached out to shake his hand. "Heh, I had a few problems with a glitch. The Matrix is acting strange lately," he shook Annie's hand and glanced around the room. "Oh, everyone, wake up!" Annie clapped her hands, rousing everyone from their sleep. Groans and swear words filled the once silent room. They rubbed their eyes and focused on the new figure. "Who's this?" sweetreyes yawned. "This is our new commadre. The new Bikini Bandit. Everyone, please give Reise a nice welcome," Annie smiled and gestured for Reise to sit down. He nodded and shook hands with everyone around the room. "Welcome Reise, and you don't have to be shy. We're all family here," Corey stood up and dropped his robe. Reise: WTFOMFG!!! *jumps back behind Annie* "COREY! Don't scare him like that!" Kitty thwapped him with her straw hat. Kane: HAT!! Kitty: MINE! *cuddles hat* "Is it gone?" Reise clutched onto Annie's wrist. Corey: T_T *puts on robe* "Yeah, you can come out now," Annie smiled. [b]|-Some time later-|[/b] "Alright everyone, quiet!" Annie tapped the end of her high heel on the table. The room quieted and eyed her. She paced the room with one shoe on, giving her an ominous, yet retarded, feel. "After thinking very hard on this, I've come up with who shall go with me to see Charles. Now, this was the utmost difficult decision. I have every hot member I could ask for," Annie stopped to put her other shoe on. The room awed and the girls blushed. Male Bandits: *grumble* "You guys are sexy too, but Charles won't see you. So, with that, I'm glad to announce 'Charles' Accomplices'," Annie spun around to face the bandits, "Myself, Queen Asuka, and Kitty. Get ready you two, we're leaving in a few minutes. Meet me at my myO account." The two jumped up and bolted for the door. Both getting stuck in the door frame. "I was first you cow!" Kitty started to slap with her hat. Kane: HAT!! "Why you little pussy!!(pun intended)" Queen Asuka growled and thrust her hip into Kitty, sending her flying to the side, "No one is first but me!" With that the Chobit stormed out of the Lounge, followed by a limping Kitty. Annie shook her head and walked towards the door. "The rest of you, you all may leave if you wish. We'll meet back here in the morning." [b]|-In Annie's myO-|[/b] "I have a bruise, how can I wear my bikini now ;_;" Kitty sniffled and sat on Annie's recent post. "Get over it. You shouldn't have called me a 'cow'," Asuka blew a raspberry and leant against Annie's picture. Annie walked in and looked at the two pouting girls. Queen Asuka was dressed in a white, ruffly dress with pink cords wrapped carefully around her arms, breasts, and abdomen, and a pink lacey choker. Kitty donned a yellow sundress that clung to every curve, and her straw hat. Annie nodded in approval and made sure her red dress was free of lint and wrinkles. "Wow, Annie. Were'd you get that dress?" Kitty winked. "Oh, it was a congratulations gift from Dr. D'Zanth," Annie chuckled and slipped on her red high heels and brushed her hair back. "So, where are we meeting Charles?" Queen Asuka twirled a cord in her fingers. "We're meeting him in the Anime Archives. No one hardly goes there any more," Annie checked on a few things in her myO and snapped her fingers, "Ready?" The two nodded and followed Annie to the OB. They looked around, thankfully, no one was really online but the newer members. The three hurried behind Tokyo 3 and checked before darting into the Anime Archives. They looked around at all of the choices of subforums. "Which one?'' Kitty adjusted her dress. "He said James' sticky." "Why there?" "Old members don't need to know what the archives are for; we know. And the new members don't pay attention," Annie looked over her shoulder before entering the sticky. She was followed by the Chobit and Kitty. They glanced about and saw him. Him who was Charles. Charles who was him. He wore a white toga, an over-sized cowboy hat, and a pair of teal boots.Annie took in a deep breath and slowly approached Charles. He stood quietly, and slowly looked up at the girls from under his hat. "Annie?" "Charles?" "It's MR. PANTS!" The three girls cringed and held onto each other. Charles sighed and laughed. "I'm sorry girls, I had to do that," he scratched at his beardless chin as if he had one to scratch, "How may I be of assistance?" "We, the Bikini Bandits, need your help, Mr. Charles," Annie began, "We need your permission and help in entering and editing Moderator Shinmaru's signature." Charles quirked an eyebrow and plucked at that imaginary beard. He "hmm"ed a few times. "For what reason are you wanting to edit Shin's sig?" "The Bandits are striking on Shinmaru for his myO stunt on Christmas. He nearly burned the eyeballs out of everyone's sockets..those who were unfortunate to see it." "Indeed....What are you putting into his signature?" "Exploitation of Yoshi porn," Kitty giggled. "SILENCE!" Charles laughed again at Kitty's whimper. "Will you help, Mr. Charles?" Queen Asuka played with her cords. "One thing..I must be granted a wish from the Bandits, Ms. Annie." "What's that, Sir?" "I want..Kitty's straw hat." Kitty: >:^O MINE! "I get the hat, you girls get my power for one night ~_^" Charles winked a silly wink and sauntered over to Annie, nearly tripping on his toga, "Here, take my rod XD" Annie, Kitty, Queen Asuka: O.O!? Charles handed Annie the Admin Rod and a piece of paper with the words: [b]IOU: One Admin Rod for Kitty's straw hat. Or else I ban you.[/b] Annie nodded and signed. Charles followed the girls back to the Lounge and cuddled Kitty's hat. (Kitty: T_T) The rest of the bandits stared blankly at the oddly dressed Charles. "Are you sure this is The Charles?" Kane nearly stuttered. "Yup," Annie waved the Admin Rod. "OMFG! Did he test you?" "Um..no," Queen Asuka smiled. "Then he is The Charles. He only gives you the test after you give him back the Rod," Kane nodded. Annie shrugged and walked over to Forum Home. "Who's coming with me?" "I will," Reise stood up, followed by Sonata. Annie nodded and headed towards Shinmaru's profile. Sonata and Reise close behind. "Annie, are you sure we won't get banned?" Sonata asked nervously. "Nah, he'll laugh at it," Annie smiled, "Alright, we're here." The Admin Rod's powers had allowed the three to access the Edit tool on Shin's profile. "Okay, we need to hurry. Shin should be on very soon to update his myOtaku," Annie scrolled through his options, "Reise, you and Sonata stay here. I have to go to imageshack.com to grab the incriminating picture. Protect the Admin Rod with your lives." Reise and Sonata nodded and headed for "Edit Signature". Annie rushed ot her imageshack.com account and grabbed the picture. Glancing at the time, Annie nearly fumbled through links. She was running out of time rapidly. It was nearing midnight. She jumped back into Shin's signature. "Got it! Now, the image is too big to just put as a banner. So we're going to hotlink it," Annie slapped the url onto the signature. "What should we write?" Reise questioned, ready to type. "How about: 'To Play It, Click here and receive a free button!'?" Sonata suggested. "Hm, it will make people wonder..sure, why not," Annie smiled and nodded for Reise to type it out [b]|-Minutes later-|[/b] "Ah..done," Reise sat back. Annie looked over the new signature and nodded. She gave a high-five to the two and sent them back to the lounge. She tapped the Admin Rod in her palm and made sure the signature was good. Satisfied, she clicked the Save button and headed back to the Lounge. "How'd it go?" Dr. D'Zanth walked in. "Go check it out," Annie smirked and handed Charles his Admin Rod, "Thank you, Mr. Charles." "Hehe, I can't wait to see this.." Charles shoved the Rod into the robes of his toga. They all wait in anxiety for Shin's arrival. [b]|-seconds later, Shin gets online-|[/b] "What's this in my signature?" asked Shinmaru to himself as he clicked the new link in his sig.

But, you can't really do too much to Shin that won't phase him, so meh..XD And the links do work, so go click!![/size][/color]

[size=1][color=darkslategray]I have also fallen for The Ditty Bops, thanks to Siren here ^_^ Their music reminds me of very old Grand Ol' Opry Theatre country music with a twist of 1920-30's flapper music. The woman's vocals are amazing; so fluid and sweet. She sings so softly, but her voice is a power house of sound. I don't think her throat ever gets raw from singing. I really suggest listening to them. Their music is too catchy, no matter your mood. I was aflame all day yestereday, but when I listened to them, I was instantly swept away into a mellow state of mind. [/size][/color]

[size=1][color=darkslategray]Oh my, Adahn. I thought I was the only one who had that strong of a feeling for someone I met here in the OB. Only, we haven't met yet. [b]SilpheedPilot[/b] and I met back in September of the year 2003. I remember exactly what RPG it was, and the reason for our meeting. We met in Reflux's RPG "War of the Shadows", a vampire genre. SilpheedPilot's and my characters were on the same side, yet my character didn't want to be. His character was a rutheless killer, and tried multiple times to kill my character. But each time he tried, he hesitated then kicked the crap out of my character, but left after each one with a sense of doubt. This confused me, over and over again. So, I PMed Silpheed and asked what the crap was going on with his character. Well, that was probably the best move of my life. He and I exchanged PMs every once in a while, but it soon spilled over into Yahoo! Instant Messaging and AOL Instant Messaging. Within a month of writing back and forth over stories and IMs, we moved to the telephone. I don't know what it is about him, but I know he is [i]the one[/i] for me. At that time in my life, I was struggling to keep faith in love. I was in a state of absolute misery. All I could feel was pain, and all I could taste was bitterness. I tried to be open to men, but none were anything to help; they only made things worse. However, there came Silpheed. He was the only person who could reach down and pull me out of the ground. He showed me the light of love. He showed me that I could love, and that I could be loved myself. He's been the only guy I could express any sort of love towards. Of course, I do love my friends..but when I say I love SilpheedPilot, I mean the kind of love you cannot express in words. The love that lasts forever. We've been talking back and forth for almost two years now, and my feelings for him have never faultered or wavered; they've only grown stronger. We had a rough time last year, and nearly lost each other. During this time, I was heartbroken. I couldn't feel anything. I felt so horrible, worse than I did when he and I first met. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get mad about what happened. I only thought of blaming myself for treating him the way I did when it happened. There is no way in the world I could ever be mad at him. And I missed him terribly. Then, one day, we finally spoke online. We spent hours trying to claim the blame XD It was a futile attempt, neither one of us won that battle. But what we did win was a stronger relationship. And during these past two years, I've desired no other person other than SilpheedPilot. I've tried to date guys, but none proved anything but disappointment, and a sense of guilt. Even though Silpheed and I are thousands of miles apart, I still felt that I was cheating on him. And it's good to hear from him that he feels the same/if not stronger about me. And we are currently planning a meeting for this summer. I could go on more, but I think I've gotten my point out ^_^ SilpheedPilot is my life, my savior, my heart and soul is his. [/size][/color]

[size=1][color=darkslategray]Oh..my...god..Radaghast?! *pokes to make sure he's real* You're back! I think I am going to cry! Oh, anyways. I joined the OtakuBoards by default. I was looking for anime pictures to inspire myself and got the Fan Art section. I started to browse around on theOtaku.com and found the OtakuBoards. Ever since then, I've never truely left, hehe. I've established a wonderful group of friends and love the writing.[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=darkslategray]Wow, I really love the first one. The texture of the drawing only adds to the emotion I get from looking over it. I feel every scratch, I am chilled by every shade of darkness. I absolutely love it. [/size][/color]

[size=1][color=darkslategray]I didn't expect I could do this.[/size][/color] [quote][size=1]"Stop that!" "I can't-" "Bullshit!" He yelled at me and grabbed the blade from my hand. I reached, he slapped. "This only hurts you. And me," he slashed at his forearm. I screamed for him to stop. He continued several times more. One for each of mine. "Does it feel good, does it!? To see pain?"[/size][/quote]

[size=1][color=darkslategray] Do whatever with the character. I'm not even going to bother. I left my last entry open to battle or whatever you guys see fit. Ice taking my characters out of context isn't the main/only reason I'm resigning my place in the RP. So don't take that too deep into mind. I'm just not able to focus/maintain interest with the RPG. It's an awesome idea, Meggido, and I love the genre..but I just can't write in the story anymore. It's hard to explain, but please hear that I will not be posting further into this RP.[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=darkslategray]Vivian embraced her lover, caressing her shoulders. How she longed to remain in this moment with her; forever. [i]She doesn't love you like I do, Vivian..You know what she is doing, she's weakening you...to kill you.. [b]No..[/b][/i]Vivian shook her head softly. Geneefee stared up at her in question. [b]"Please tell me, Vivian. I want to help,"[/b] her hands swept over Vivian's face. [b]"Gen..I want you to protect Cpt. Chubb and his crew from me. If I do anything to the extent of murdering him, kill me."[/b] Vivian eased her face onto Geneefee's, her thumb rubbing the tender skin of Geneefee's inner thigh. [b]"You are being controlled by him, aren't you?" "Yes. That is why I need you to kill me if I suddenly become estranged. Do not hesitate, Gen."[/b] [i]Yes Vivian...You will die if you deny me..[/i] Vivian shut her eyes tightly, squeezing steaming tears down her cheeks. The droplets dripped onto Geneefee, who pulled Vivian's shaking frame into her. [b]"Promise me you will do as I ask, Gen?" "I promise."[/b] In Geneefee's gentle care, Vivian fell sound asleep. The sound of her heart beat, the subtle rise and fall of her chest, the light scent of her skin; Geneefee cast a spell. Vivian could finally relax. In her arms.[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=darkslategray][b]"Is the door closed?"[/b] Vivian managed to get out before Geneefee consumed her. [b]"Yes."[/b] The two sank to the floor, peeling off any garments they could manage to grab. The chill of the room melted away into the waves of sudden and heated passion. Their soft moans echoed off of the sweating walls. [b]"Why won't you tell me, Vivian?"[/b] Geneefee's fingertips drug over Vivian's breasts and rising stomach. [b]"You wouldn't believe me.."[/b] Vivian's palms formed over the delicate curves of Geneefee's hips, her fingers slipping under the straps of her panties. Geneefee's body lifted in a slight arch, giving Vivian the opportunity to peel away the silky cloth. She lowered her face to Geneefee's flushing skin and began to blow down her pantyline. Geneefee's body cringed, giving birth to goosebumps. They had been deprived, for far too long. [b]"Viv.." "I won't tell you.."[/b] Vivian slid her hands between Geneefee's thighs, spreading them. [i]Hm..what if I... [b]You stay out of this..[/b][/color][/size][/i]

[size=1][color=darkslategray]Oh my..I remember being in a chat when introduced to the trailer. It was horrifying, and then James discovered the trailer (your banners haunt my dreams, James). However, I would love to see the movie. From the trailer, I saw my movie fetish..colour. Vivid, rich colour. Not to mention, [i]Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory[/i] is a world classic; and knowing that Tim Burton (my favorite director/producer), is making this movie..it only drives my urge to see it. No matter how frightening the trailer is ^_^[/size][/color]

[size=1][color=darkslategray][quote]My heart beat softly, yet with anxiety. My face flushed with a tingling heat. My hands curled up with the rousing flutter in my abdomen. "This is it.." he whispered. Then, without warning, we dove into the wind. I screamed, he smiled. Seconds later, the rollercoaster came to an abrupt halt.[/quote] Haha, you all thought I was makin' a dirty one ~_^ [/color][/size]

[size=1][color=darkslategray]Vivian stay still on the floor, staring up into Geneefee's capturing gaze. Her eyes never faultered to show any sign of emotion, while Vivian's spilled with pain. [b]"How are you?"[/b] Geneefee asked again, politely. [b]"Not too well,"[/b] Vivian swept the tears from her pale cheeks. Geneefee slowly walked around the room in silence. Her eyes scanned the walls, absorbing all she saw into her blank face. Vivian leant against the wall and closed her eyes. [b]"What do you need, Gen?" "Don't you feel it?"[/b] Geneefee sat tenderly on Vivian's bed, as if she were to disturb an inanimate object. [b]"Feel what, exactly?"[/b] her voice brimmed with exhaustion. Geneefee stood once more and crept up to Vivian, kneeling in front of her. Geneefee's hands reached out to cup Vivian's face. [b]"You should know, Vivian."[/b] Geneefee studied every feature on Vivian's face; the brow, the lips, even the circles under Vivian's eyes. Geneefee's thumbs grazed over her cheeks. Vivian was motionless; she was rendered from moving. [b]"I'm..afraid I don't know what you're talking about,"[/b] Vivian took Geneefee's hands into hers and pulled them away. [b]"C'mon, Viv. Something evil is within you; I can feel it,"[/b] Geneefee reached out again, only to pull Vivian's face closer. [b]"I have nothing to tell you on what you feel. I'm not well in health because I'm exhausted with living here. I'm tired of freezing; I'm tired of taking a chance with the food I find; I'm tired of being alone-" "Ah, that is where you are wrong,"[/b] Geneefee edged closer, [b]"You are not alone in here.."[/b] Geneefee tapped Vivian on the forehead. She released her and stood up. Vivian climbed to her feet, never taking an eye away from Geneefee. The two, once more, inches apart. The specialist stared with a chill in her gaze; Vivian with the same expression. [b]"I do not have to tell you, Gen. You already know,"[/b] Vivian stepped away and walked towards her bathroom, [b]"Now if you'll excuse me, I'm in need of a shower." "You are harboring him in your mind. I will not allow you to help in this mission,"[/b] Geneefee reached behind her back. Vivian stopped in front of the full-lengthed mirror, staring at her. Geneefee's hand emerged with the razor blade extended. The glimmer of sharp, smooth metal dances on the floor. Vivian's lips curled into a sly smile and she tured around, propping her hand on the bathroom sink. [/size][/color]

[quote][size=1][color=darkslategray]"You didn't-" "I know." The two sit across from each other. Her temper roused in her bare breast, her fists clenched the sheet. His face held no sway of sympathy. He stood to leave the room with his shame. "I don't believe that you fake-" "Well, I did..sorry."[/quote][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=darkslategray]Now this makes more sense. Addition of this information cleared up questions I was unable to word in writing. Of course, making my senses tingle all over. [/size][/color]

[color=darkslategray]This is probably going to more of a challenge than OB Awards. [i]So many[/i] good/incredible changes, events, discussions, memories have happened in the year of 2004. Unfortunately, I missed out on most of the last year, but I will do my best to mention what I can recall about 2004. [b]What is it?[/b] OB v7 [b]Why was it nifty?[/b] I was not here for the launch of v7, but I was extremely excited when I came back. It was a breath, actually a blast, of fresh air when the computer brought up the webpage. The organization of the Boards is amazing and clean. v7 made finding and browsing the Boards much easier and less frustrating. Like I said, giving the OB a clean, sleek and professional appearance. Very pleasing. [b]What is it?[/b] OB Anthology [b]Why was it nifty?[/b] I was delighted with this area of the Arena. It is a place that the OB really didn't have before the launch of v7. It is a place that allows members to put their writing skills/abilities to the test, and push to their limit. Wonderful ideas spawn inspiration in the Anthology. The ideas that are created (that I have seen) have challenged the members here in the OB to be more creative. Stories that are limited to 55 words per post really forces creative thought to reel in many directions. It's challenging. It takes alot of thinking to post a short story that is both following the guidelines and well-constructed at the same time; allowing the members to develop in their art of writing. Only the OB Anthology has made this possible. [b]*What is it?[/b] 55 Fiction [b]Why was it nifty?[/b] As I mentioned above, the 55 Fiction is probably the best thread I've ever seen in the Anthology. I just didn't feel right blending it into my original mention, so I'm taking it to its own little nomination. 55 Fiction has made the biggest impact in my writing developement by challenging me to us grammar, adjectives, and verbs in a way that limits space. The thread makes you think into your writing. You only have a frame of 55 words or less to paint a masterpiece. Very tricky, but very amazing. Some of the skits that come out of that thread are breath-taking and shocking. A great balance of testing boundaries, and mastering perfection. [b]What is it?[/b] Thread Ratings in the Arena [b]Why was it nifty?[/b] I will admit, I was not particularly accepting to a certan aspect of this new rule. But it was ironed out. I love the idea though. Seeing that a thread is rated "mature for sexual content/extreme violence/gore/drugs..etc" is a comforting factor; allowing a member to steer clear of something that may cause them a sense of insecurity, or/and may be offensive. It has really helped the Adventure forums to run smoothly and more efficiently. [b]What is it?[/b] The Members (old and new) [b]Why was it nifty?[/b] Without the erotic blend of persona, the OB would not be as exciting and "hopping". From members like [b]Siren [/b]and[b] wristcutter[/b] to members like [b]Mimmi[/b] and [b]Japan_86[/b], the OB offers blends of sugar, spice, and everything nice. Personalities are key to flavor. Siren's and wristcutter's controversial opinons and blunt actions (which is sexy and orgasmic, don't hurt me guys) put spice and action into the OB. While Mimmi's and Japan's sweetness and kind spirits sooth out any conflicts and put out flames. Then you have your characters like [b]Dragon Warrior[/b]. His crazy, insanely sexy (and yes, I admit that), and hilarious actions/stories amuse and lift down spirits; keeping the OB easy-going and enjoyable. You have [b]James[/b] and[b] Adam[/b] (whom I've never had the honor of speaking with, but I'm using what I've gathered); both extremely patient and accepting to what happens here, OB or Otaku.com. With knowledge, intelligence and [i]unbelievable [/i]patience, James has built a steady ground where everyone on the OB can collaberate, discuss, and grow together/or around eachother. The OB has it's [b]new members[/b]; with their "youthful" ideas and flamboyant attitudes, the OB is granted the pleasure to birth aspiring artists. Also, giving them [b]older members[/b] to help guide them through their birth to maturing art. [b]What is it?[/b] OB friends (directed at everyone) [b]Why was it nifty?[/b] Now, I cannot speak for everyone and their circle of friends. But I'm pretty sure I will be able to relate to everyone when I say without the circle of friends I have, I probably would have already left the OB for good. They have brought inspiration and hope into my life (no matter their position in the OB or their age). Whenever I feel the urge to slip into a bliss of depression, they are always there to pull me back and comfort me. Sometimes their ways of doing so is harsh and a slap in the face, but everyone needs that time and again. But no matter the situation, the OB friends are always there. And not only do they help out with something personal, they also help out when I'm stuck within my writing. Their views are on the outside looking in and are different compared to my own. This motivating me to try new things. [b]What is it?[/b] RADAGHAST!!! (his overdue return) [b]Why was it nifty[/b] His return has overjoyed me so, that I cannot even find the words to describe. Radaghast is an amazing writer, and I'm estatic to say that I have written with him. His ability as an RPer improved drastically, and I cannot wait to see him in action again. My writing buddy has returned! I now have motivation. [b]*What is it?[/b] "What Is Your Religion?" thread [b]Why was it nifty?[/b] Most people tend to stay away from this thread, and they tell me so whenever I mention it to them. Religion is a hard topic to discuss because it's very controversial and full of contradicting facts/theories. I found this thread to be very nifty in the fact that it has spawned the best discussion from the people (well, except for Cole-fu) who've wrote and discussed in this thread. Most of everyone's posts were full of interesting information. I love[d] this thread because it's opened my eyes and has made me feel comfortable knowing where I stand in religion. Plus, ask anyone who knows me, I'm not good at holding debates; but this thread has been a breakthrough, and I'm surprised I've been able to hold my ground on this one. [b]*What is it?[/b] The Art Studio [b]Why was it nifty?[/b] This is one important area of the OB. It helps the members of the Boards in searching for their artistic ideas. Here you can request/or make avatars and banners. It helps dilute requests through PMs, which can be a hassle. Also, the Art Studio gives the members a chance to throw out their artwork. Allowing the artist to gather critiques, suggestions, ideas. [b]*What is it?[/b] Syk3 [b]Why was it nifty?[/b] Syk3's a wonderful member/moderator. His patience with modding the Art Studio is unbelievable ( because I know he gets infinite PMs requesting banners/avis made from him). If it weren't for his sense of humor, and patience, I'm sure the Art Studio would not have the welcoming feeling it does. He takes care of the members that enter his domain. If there is someone bashing on another member's artwork, Syk3's quick to lay the fist down and defend. He's very talented, a great friend, an excellent moderator, and too nifty for words. *Edits[/color]

[size=1][color=indigo][b]"Let's go, Afriel,"[/b] Mutuol slipped on a pair of leather gloves and started out the door. Afriel nodded and threw on a white cloak. Mutuol stared at the young angel, astonished that he would dare to wear white. It would make it difficult for them to pass through undetected. [b]"Afriel, do you think it wise that you don a white attire?"[/b] Mutuol ran his finger through his hair. [b]"What's wrong with white?" "You'll be seen. They know you've betrayed them. Now go back inside and get black or dark clothes,"[/b] Mutuol pointed into the house, staring down at the youth. [b]"Yes, Sir,"[/b] without a whimper, Afriel darted into the house. Mutuol sighed and looked to the city skylights. He easily spotted the one Z and Agoriad were in; a low growl rattled in his throat. Minutes later, Afriel appeared by his side and looked to Mutuol for approval. The unborn nodded appreciatively and took to the air, closely followed by Afriel. [b]"You lead the way,"[/b] Mutuol gestured for Afriel to take lead. [b]"Yes, Lord Mutuol,"[/b] Afriel did as he was instructed and sped up his flight. Mutuol scanned the horizon, watching for the angels. He felt Lucifer above them, but did not let his focus faulter. They were going to destroy the Lair. Then it came into his head. [b]"Afriel, do you think the angels have moved from their haven?" "This may be, m'Lord." "Well, do they have a second base?" "Yes, but I'm not one hundred percent sure where it is,"[/b] Afriel glanced back at Mutuol. [b]"Perhaps we shall find something in the main Lair. Keep your eyes ahead,"[/b] Mutuol took a quick glance back at the city. [i]Z..[/i][/color][/size]

[size=1][color=indigo]Where do I sign-up? Pure brilliance, Corey. I love all of your ideas. I'm sucked into this one, and I hope you are going to go through with this one. It reminds me of some movie I saw..I don't know which one though. I don't think I found anything wrong with it..other than you haven't put it up in the Inn! [/size][/color]

[color=indigo][size=1]Vivian sipped cooly on her coffee, watching Allen closely. He was drained of whatever energy he had left. His eyes were dull and nearly lifeless; but there was a glimmer of hope burning softly. The hope that they will bring the beast down once and for all. Vivian's face furrowed as the gritty last of what was liquid passed through her lips. She set the mug on the counter and started for the exit. [i]You won't let them, Vivan.. [b]I most certainly will. I'm tired of living like this..[/b] I can arrange a lovely death...then you can stand by my side..forever.. [b]Never. You will be nothing, non-exsistant..And then I can finally live..[/b] You defy me..who gave you life..I think not Vivian..we have a deal..[/i] [b]"Fuck our deal!"[/b] Vivan slammed her palm into the "open" button. Ignoring whatever comment was said by the remainder of people in the room, she stormed out with no concern. Vivian passed Geneefee's quarters; her door was open. Vivian looked up and down the corridor. Startled and confused, she slowly entered the room. It didn't look much different from hers, only Geneefee had taped up pictures of her family. [b]"Geneefee?"[/b] Vivian lightly stepped over her garments. The door to her bathroom was cracked just so the steam from the shower could spill out as it pleased. Vivian carefully made her way to the door. [b]"Hey Gen? Sorry to just walk in, but your door wa-"[/b] Vivian stopped and stared at the glass doors. Geneefee's sillouhette turned slowly, sliding the glass door open. Geneefee stood perfectly still and completely unashamed of baring her snow-white body. Vivian glanced over her shoulder. [b]"Your door was open." "Of course it was,"[/b] Geneefee stepped out of the shower, grasping a razor in her hand. Vivian nodded and turned to leave. Geneefee's wet hand gripped Vivian's shoulder. [b]"Are you alright, Viv?"[/b] Geneefee turned her around. The two were merely inches apart. Geneefee's body still dripped; Vivian motionless. [b]"I'm fine, thank you. Now dry up and throw on some clothes before you catch a cold,"[/b] Vivian grasped Geneefee's hand and gave her a gentle push. She turned once more to trudge through the room. She exited the room and started down the hall. Where she was going, Vivian did not know. She just wanted to walk and take this time to think of what to do. She wanted nothing more than to help Allen and his crew. She longed to rid the universe of the shadow of the [i]Event Horizon[/i]. She wanted to kill him, for good. However, she had made an oath for her life. Selfishness at best. The exchange of life for the life of another. Vivian struggled with the complex decisions that flooded her mind. Her deal with the devil would forever haunt her decisions. [b]"If you are alive, God, please help me.."[/b] Vivian leant against the cold walls, sinking to her knees. [/color][/size]

[color=indigo][size=1]Very sexy chapter, DW. Couldn't expect less from thee. [/color][/size] [i]DW died,? said an unknown voice from the group. ?Indeed,? James said. ?As I was saying..."[/i] [color=indigo][size=1]XD The best![/color][/size]

[color=indigo][size=1]Heh, sorry that I cannot give everyone alot of lines. Please realise that there are alot of you bandits. The people I know the most will naturally take more lines, because I know how to pertray them. Also, I'd like to introduce the newest member of our Bikini family: [b]Reise #11[/b]. Reise, say a few words for yourself.[/color][/size]

[color=indigo][size=1]I cannot believe I forgot the sweetest person in the entire world! [b]Mimmi[/b]- My master, my friend. The kindest and sweetest lady I've ever had the privilege to know and speak to. Her caring and generous attitude really makes me rethink things I do or say, and I have to thank her for making an impact on me. I'm sorry for forgetting you, Master T_T Please, don't get the whip.. Of course I'd like to meet you, Kitty..(in a very innocent way..>_>)[/color][/size]

[QUOTE=The Mattress: The Jeh] "?I?m the Site Director of the OB, I?m not letting you take over my company, hey?wait, I can fire you. Get out? ?Balls??[/quote] [color=indigo][size=1]XD Oh my! All this talk about balls is getting me hot, bothered, and emotional. Great chapter, Reise.[/color][/size]

[color=indigo][size=1]Oh my, there is many people I would love to meet ^_^ Let me see if I can list them all.. [list][*][b]Corey[/b]- My buddy, and partner in crime >.> I would love to meet Corey because he's just an amazing person over the net, and would love to spend time with him. [*][b]Kane[/b]- Another partner in crime, and a fellow Irish-ner. Kane is always there for me whenever I need to talk, no matter the topic. He helps out, even if he isn't aware of it. [*][b]Syk3[/b]- No matter what anyone says about Syk3, I have come to know him as a wonderful, and caring, person. It's odd that we don't live that far away from eachother and haven't met, but it would be nice to shake hands with him. [*][b]Shinmaru-[/b] Despite what you may think of how I feel about him (reading the Bikini Bandits story), I'll have you know Shin's teh awesome. Always updating his myOtaku, and giving us all thirty minutes of reading thoses posts ^_^ I think he'd be fun to meet. [*][b]JJRiddler[/b]- My newly discovered twin brother! Tis amazing how well we both clicked in just one AIM conversation. We discovered we are infatuated with anything shiny, we love cheese, and we both use the word "yesh". Besides, he's a CIA agent. Awesome? You bet. [*][b]Queen Asuka[/b]- Just because she's so damned sexy, and very fun to talk to. [*][b]sweetreyes[/b]- Thas mah home gurl! She's so sweet and playful *rawr* [*][b]Baron Samedi[/b]- Rawr, very rawr. XD Baron is a great guy, and very entertaining to gnaw on..I mean, talk to. Plus, he lives in Australia. Dude, it's Australia, enough said, eh? ^_^ [*][b]Siren[/b]- Siren is intriguing and has a very swift, witty personality. I love it. Besides, he's slick ~__^ (AIM chat convo reference) And c'mon, he loves Drawn Together as much as I do. [*][b]Radaghast[/b]- Depressing that he left T_T That was my writing pal. He was my alter-ego of amazing writing. He and I could write next to eachother without having to worry if we would upset our balance. (think Corey and Kane) He was my warmth T_T I just hope he makes his way back.. [*][b]Neuvoxetere (Arika)[/b]- My little sista! [*][b]Lalith Ril[/b]- Wonderful person..absolutely wonderful. Always makes me smile. [*][b]CHARLES!!![/b]- Of course I'd love to meet him! I have to personally thank him for giving me a new eyeball! ^_% [*][b]Drix D'Zanth[/b]- Yeah baby ~_^ [*][b]Metatron[/b]- Yet another person who doesn't live to far away from me. I'd like to meet him because he's my "husband", and I think our meeting would be intersting. Metatron's very intelligent and keen. I would love to get into discussions with him. [*][b]SilpheedPilot[/b]- My number one, top of the list, absolute must person I would ever want to meet. We had our little spill in early spring of last year, but that didn't stop me from loving him. Silpheed has done something for me that no one was able to do. I was in a horrible spot at one point in my life, and he was the only person who could pull me out and show me that I can love/and can be loved. I cannot thank him enough, and I will always hold him dearly in my heart. No matter how far away we live from eachother. Distance cannot beat our emotion. There is no way I will ever stop loving him. Ever.[/list] Well, I think I named everyone. If I think of anyone else, I'll let you know.[/color][/size]
