[QUOTE=Adahn] So, you didn't like my choices? I'll try to make my choices a little softer :) [size=2]1. Hugging a cute, fluffy white kitten?[/size] [size=2]2.

[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]I would like to talk about a topic today that concerns everyone here on Otaku: Money.

[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Another popular Hero thread. ;)[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Hmm. I really don't consider myself popular, Hero, but thanks for the recognition. If anything, I consider myself to be an above-average RPer at best. However, when it comes to people I like, I have a tight circle of friends. Strangely, however, the friends I do have don't really talk with each other on a regular unless their in the same event.

[center][b][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Febuary 17th, 2007[/color][/size][/font][/b][/center] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Hey again, Journal. Tis me, Cassidy Blaque, giving you the low-down of my life for today. Today... Today I just... Have you ever felt like you wanted to just curl up in a little ball and make yourself vanish? Well, yea. That's how I felt today.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]I saw a female friend of mine, 'Keve', today. she was wearing a blue turtleneck and some skin tight pants. Well, i've been knowing Keve since after I came back from Iraq in 2006 and I thought that she was the best thing since sliced bread. I hit on her, she hit on me back, we hit on each other; we had a nice little arrangement. Now, while we are working together (Yeah, tell me about it, Journal) I see her walk to me and give me a beautiful smile. Naturally, I fall for her bait and walk her way, admiring her shirt all the while. She stretches out her hands for a hug.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"How come you didn't call me Blaque? I texted you and everything."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"My bad, Keve, I had... things to deal with yesterday. (Read Feb 16) I didn't mean to ignore you or anything."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Whatever. You talkin' shite again; I know you were talkin' to another female."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Keve, i'm hurt. Look at these eyes of mine. Do these look like the eyes of a man who would stab you in the back?"[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"You're married, Blaque, so yeah, you would."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Guess that rules out the 'Do you trust me' question then, huh?"[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Yeah, good times. I hated work but I loved the different women that I met at my job on a daily basis. They were my drug; they kept me sane through the eight hours of bullshite that I had to endure.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]As I walked with Keve, I noticed something on her neck: A white piece of cotton. Being the diligent man that I am, I picked the cotton of of her turtleneck and blew it away with my [fresh] breath. She giggled when the cotton hit her face, letting me know that she loved being special around me.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]But I wasn't feeling special anymore when she dusted off the neck of her shirt. as she wiped the top portion of her turtleneck, I saw bruises on her flesh.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]I was thunderstruck. I couldn't -- wouldn't move an inch.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"What the hell?? Who did that to you??"[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]I got it then; she had wore the turtleneck to hidde the marks. Who knew how many more were on her body. I got madder by the second because as flirtatious as I am, I have a strict 'No physically hrting women' policy.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"It's nothin' Blaque." She tried to leave but I grabbed her arm so tight, she didn't force herself away.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Did your husband do this to you?"[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, she's married, Journal. Oops.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Yes, but he had good reason."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Wht-the-f*ck-ever. Like what?"[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"I asked him if he was cheating on me."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Ow. So I felt a little two-faced because of her comment since I was flirting with her and all but I was too mad to care.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"That's somethin' that you can inquire about without gettin' the shite choked outta you --"[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Shut the f*ck up, Blaque! We are at work."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Sorry. He... he had no right to do this to you. None."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Ok... Journal. Am I a weak man for getting sympathetic over another woman -- that i'm not with, mind you -- who got hurt? Anywho...[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"I don't wanna talk about it anymore. Just drop it Blaque before you make me cry too."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]".........Whatever." and I walked away from her. I was more mad at her husband rather than her.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]At work, I could do nothing but think about how to kill the guy. I even yelled at a couple of callers because of my stress. Eventually, I pulled my self together. I had to leave early because I felt that if I didn't I would've taken my stress out on someone random.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]I didn't even tell Keve bye.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black][b][i]Today's Lesson: It's easy to forgive strangers, it's hard to forgive the one's you love, but it's damn impossible to forgive a stranger who hurts the one you love.[/i][/b][/color][/size][/font]

[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Well... first, an introduction. [b]The Journal of Cassidy Blaque[/b] is basically a journal of myself -- Cassidy Blaque is my own personal nickname from years ago. The only difference being that this journal will contain all of my hidden secrets, my thoughts and my life. Yes, some things will be made up (What, though, I won't say :animesmil ) but the majority of this journal will be true. For this reason, i've rated this as M.

Forgive me this evening, for I have sinned. Today at work, I had the time of my life and it wasn't with the woman i'm spending the rest of my life with. Heh, I wish you could see what I see at work. Once you walk through the door, you enter a circle of nothingness. This... void you could call it, is totally blissful -- filled with nothing but women that have this urge... desire to jump any man that come within five feet of them. And oh my god, journal, this is the bad part... these women want me. Bad. One woman -- Taffy, they call her -- totally keeps stalking me whenever I take phone calls for my employer. Huh, why do they call her Taffy, you ask journal? Well... because she's thick. And not the 'fat' type of thick, I mean 'thick'. Oh man, she walked up to me yesterday and gave me her phone number telling me to call her. Well naturally, she sees the ring that I have on my left finger and instead of leaving, asks me if I truly love my wife.[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]"Of course I love my wife. why do you think i'm married?"[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]"Just because you're married doesn't mean you're in love, Blaque." Taffy shot back.[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]Wow. I was shocked. Not at Taffy but at her words. They had never made so much sense. Is it true that just because i'm married, I don't truly love her? Did I make a mistake. Instantly doubt fills my mind and chokes me. But before my mind dies from the smoke, she continues to talk.[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]"Does your wife make you truly happy?"[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]Hell, does she? I didn't know anymore.[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]And right then she did the move -- she licked her lips as if inviting me to take her here and now.[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]hold on Journal... just thinking about that scene makes my blood hot. Whew... okay.[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]Anywho, she licked her lips and left. I had this weird choking feeling in my throat keeping me from taking a call for the moment because the phone [u]was[/u] ringing.[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]"Blaque, answer the damn phone!!" My employer yells.[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]"... Yeah."[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]Of course I wanted him to burst into a million flames as he interrupted my thoughts of sex but I did as instructed. The rest of the day after that was a bit fuzzy because it seemed every phone call after that was a turn-on to me. *Shruggs*[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]Anyway Journal, I called the number when I got home and sure enough it was her wanting me to come over to her house.[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]"Maybe later." I told her.[/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]Im sure that she'll try to talk to me again tomorrow.[/size][/font] [center][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][b][i]Today's lesson: The temptation of sex is even more addictive than drugs and there's no cure for it, either.[/i][/b][/size][/font][/center] [center] [/center] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][center][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][b]----------[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]----------[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]----------[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]----------[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]---------[/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][/size][/font][/center] [center] [/center] [center][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][b][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][/size][/font][/center] [left][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]Well... that's the first day. Whether the mods lock this thread for the level of 'realism' or not, I just want to say that it's finally nice to get my life out in the open without having to look over my shoulder now. Hopefully, this does stay open because I would rather type out my feelings (Though, truth is mixed with lies) than try and keep them in an actual journal. Ugh.[/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/left]

[center][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black][b]February 16th, 2007[/b][/color][/size][/font][/center] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Jaheim Mendez walked through his usual block on 9th and Walker, quicker than usual, eager to get to the doctor and check on a female friend of his who was in labor. As he walked briskly down the street, he wiped the lavender hair from his eyes and looked up towards the sky. A drop of water landed in his eye.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"About time this storm came," Jaheim said quietly to himself. " I was tired of waiting."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]As the 22 year old looked back down to eye-level, he noticed the hospital on the right side of the street, three blocks over. Realising that crossing through an alleyway at the next street would be the quickest route to his destination, Jaheim walked quickly. As he reached the alleyway, he was bombarded by two homeless men who had obviously been drinking. Jaheim took a punch to the jaw with such force that he flew to the wall of the alleyway, furthest away from the men. Dazed from the punch, Jaheim hardly felt a bottle slammed against the top of his head while he tried to regain composure -- he only felt the blood trickle down his skull.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black][i]"Talk about foreshadowing,"[/i] Jaheim said to himself. [i]"Can't I walk down an alleyway [u]without[/u] getting attacked??"[/i][/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Hey you, chinese boy," One of the men said in a gruff voice. "Gimme all your money and maybe me and my friend here'll let you live."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"I... My mother was mexican and my father was white, thank you." Jaheim said weakly.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Whatever. Give us the money" The short man said.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Jaheim stood up with his regained strength, though, still speaking weakly to the two homeless men.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Look guys, I... I don't have any money, sorry. I'm actually trying to get somewhere. Sorry I couldn't help you two but... i'm sure you'll find money elsewhere."[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Then you die." The short man said. He pulled out a pocketknife and walked towards Jaheim.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black][i]"This is ridiculous."[/i] Jaheim thought. [i]"...Forget it."[/i][/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]As the short homeless man lunged into the air to stab Jaheim, he made the mistake of closing his eyes for the kill. Expecting to dig his blade into flesh, the short man was totally surprised when his face hit hard concrete, knocking out a tooth. as the man opened his eyes -- now from pain -- he looked as his partner, now in shock.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"What happened fool?!" The short man said. "How'd he escape so quick??"[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"H-He v-van-vanished..." His accomplice said out of fear from the unknown.[/color][/size][/font] [center][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black][b]**As the short man was talking to his counterpart...**[/b][/color][/size][/font][/center] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Jaheim re-materialized from rain puddles in the back of the hospital just as a intern was picking up a patient from the ambulance. Thankfully, the man didn't notice a blue puddle form into a human since he was so intent on doing his job today; the intern only yelled at Jaheim.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Hey! Get from back here!! Hospital staff only!"[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]"Sorry about that, sir." Jaheim said walking away from the scene at hand towards the front of the hospital. He slowly rubbed his jaw as he moved.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black][i]"Man... what I wouldn't give to learn to fight."[/i] Jaheim said to himself.[/color][/size][/font] [center][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][url="http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o27/TekkamanHeart/Jaheim-Mendez.png"][b]Jaheim Mendez[/b][/url][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/center] [center] [/center] [center] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2]Special Abilities: n/a[/size][/font][/center] [center][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][/size][/font] [/center] [left][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][b]EDIT:[/b] Oooh. isn't that cute? everyone has a pretty background except for me. :animedepr [/size][/font][/left]

[quote name='Matt'] Well Hero, I have to say that on the rhyming aspect of it, it was very well done. However, I found it to be very confusing and hard to read. I think it was the choice of words, and the length of those words. Now, this was probably because I was reading them out loud, but these were my two cents.[/quote] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]No real argument here, Matt. Hero, you have a really great poem here; I really like this piece that you came up with. But, like I talked with you about, grammar is key: the difference between a comma and a period is crucial. I also noticed that you had a couple of statements in your poem that were stopped abruptly by a period. Think of a period as a 16-wheeler -- it's gonna stop pretty much anything coming at it. Now try to read the poem to yourself and stop where there's a period. I'm sure you'll figure out what you need to fix then.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black][/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]But, nevertheless, I loved your poem. :animesmil[/color][/size][/font]

[color=#8b0000][quote name='Aaryanna] ...[color=#8b0000']OB is by far one of the niftiest places on the Internet.[/color][/quote][/color] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Those words ring true; this place is the shite and I wouldn't give it up for anything.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black][strike]...Hmm... Maybe for a six-figure sum...[/strike][/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Yep... not for anything in the world. :animeswea [/color][/size][/font]

[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]For me, adventure takes the cake, fantasy and comedy getting the consolation prizes. If you look at my RP/SPAR with BKstyles and company, [b]Sinister Nation[/b], that was nothing but good ol' action in mercenary format right there.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=black]Of course, [b]Citius Altius Fortius[/b] -- made by Matt (Doublehex) -- was a great RP as well and it was purely fantasy with a dash of comedy.[/color][/size][/font]
