Rain

[color=blue]Athena ran into the training area, breathless from running all the way there. "Sorry I'm late, I - hey, where is everyone?" she asked. "Uh...there's still ten minutes left" Ariadne replied. "Oh...damn, my watch is ten minutes fast! Well, atleast I'm early." "And you are..?" Rev asked her. "Me? Oh, I'm Athena." "Well, I'm Rev, and this is Ariadne. We're the instructors." "Cool. Well, it's nice to meet you."[/color]

[color=blue]Yea, what has happened to the posts...well, I've only lost about 10, so...I can't complain But, anyway. It was weird coming here today and everything was changed...CONFUSION! But, I'm sure we'll all get over the loss of the Newbie Lounge...and that My Otaku seems like a good idea. Of course I can't judge until you start putting stuff in there...;)[/color] EDIT: Wait, I've lost about 100 posts...:flaming:

[color=blue]"Well we know Kevin has no experience with elephants," Athena said, stifling a laugh. "SHUT UP!" Kevin yelled, "How about I get the elephant to step on you, huh? We'll see if you're still laugh -" "Ok, ok, calm down" Karina interrupted. She looks over to where Athena is pulling on the rope, trying to move the elephant. "Um...Athena? It's going to take a lot more than that to get it moving." "Oh yeah...I guess you're right...well, any suggestions? Oh, hey! Does anyone have a whip?" They all shake their heads. "Gee, I'm surprised you don't have one, Athena" Kevin says. "SHUT UP, Kevin, you freak!" Athena replies, glaring at him, "Well, any other suggestions?"[/color]

OOC: Hey, what are the uniforms like? Oh, you know what? They should be like the uniforms from Evangelion! That would be cool...*notices everyone staring at her*...oh, ok...whatever... [color=blue]Athena heard the announcement and left quickly to have a shower, grateful for an interruption to the awkward silence. When she was finished, she put on her uniform. Athena walked back into the room, but Jason had already left. [i]Strange[/i], Athena thought to herself, [i]"well I guess I'll see him at training...[/i]. She plaited her hair again, smoothed out the creases in her uniform and left the room.[/color]

[color=blue]Actually, I've been thinking about the Anime Lounge - who's modding it while Queen Asuka is in OBBII? She's the only mod there, isn't she?[/color]

[color=blue]Nice Cowboy Bebop site, Adam. I've never actually seen that show, but this way I can learn more about it...and, yea. I haven't looked at the Trigun site yet...I'll do it now. keep up the good work:D[/color]

[color=blue]Athena: How cool! Gee, you must be serious about your training if you train while you sleep. Jason: Yea, this is all pretty important to me. [i]He continues to unpack, and Athena notices a strange mark, like a scar, on his arm[/i] Athena: Hey, is that a scar on your arm? What's it from? Jason: Nothing...it doesn't matter. Athena: It doesn't look like nothing...it's like a bullet - Jason: Look, I said it's nothing, ok? So just stop asking about it. Athena: Um, ok...uh, so where are you from?[/color]

[color=blue]The avatars haven't come back yet since the site was updated. Most of us have custom avatars now, that's why you can see everyone elses.[/color]

[color=blue]"Yep, I'm your partner! Wait, you are Jason, aren't you?" Athena asks. [i]Jason nods[/i] "Good. I was starting to worry that you might not turn up, and I'd be left without a partner." "Well, I'm here now. Sorry I was late." "Hey, that's all right. Do you know when we start our training?"[/color]

[color=blue][b]Daisy:[/b] Good! Hopefully Athena isn't going to stop me... Geroshi is stripping and looks up. [b]Geroshi:[/b] Athena should loosen up! Streaking is fun! [b]Daisy:[/b] I agree. Ok, let's go! They strip and run through the mall, almost running into Kevin. [b]Kevin:[/b] ohhh...Geroshi, do you have to do this? I'm going to be traumitised! [b]Daisy:[/b] Kevin, the human body is a beautiful thing! [b]Kevin:[/b] Athena!! What the hell are you doing! Has Geroshi brainwa - [b]Daisy:[/b] I'm not Athena. My name is Daisy. [b]Kevin:[/b] Oh, uh, Athena is the skitzo, isn't she? Look, for God's sake, put some clothes on! Especially you, Geroshi! [b]Athena:[/b] Where am I? Damn, that Daisy came back, didn't she?! Well she'll...OH MY GOD! WHY AM I NAKED!? Geroshi, this was your idea wasn't it? Ah, Kevin, you pervert, get lost! That's it, Daisy is never allowed out again! Will you stop staring and get me some clothes?![/color]

[color=blue]Athena back to the room and saw her roommate on one of the beds, facing the wall. [i]Oh, so he finally arrived[/i], she thought to herself. [i]Is he asleep?[/i] Slowly, Athena walked over to the other bed. "Hey" she whispered, "you awake?"[/color] OOC: Sorry this is only short, I didn't have much time

[color=blue]I wasn't asking or suggesting that i should be mod, i was merely having a joke with Rae. Anyway, CWB I like that idea about having examples of good or bad posts. And having all the old Otaku Awards in there (you could stick OBBII in there when it's done).[/color]

[color=blue][b]Why does he think about food all the time?[/b] Have you seen how much training he does? Imagine all the energy he uses up. So he needs a lot of energy and strength. Food=energy and strength. [b]Why did he give Cell a Sensu Bean?[/b] He said that when Gohan felt that he was trapped by Cell, his real power would come out. So Cell neded strangth to corner Gohan. [b]Why didn't he kill Buu when he could have?[/b] I can't answer that, haven't seen the Buu Saga yet. [b]Why doesn't he wish for eternal life?[/b] Like everyone else said, his loved ones will die some day and he wouldn't want to be without them. I don't think he's dumb; just naive and innocent. Plus his innocence is so cute;)[/color]

[color=blue]Where do you guys buy your manga? i can only find it in the library. This could have something to do with the fact I live in Australia...I don't know. So yeah, where do you buy it?[/color]

OOC: Crap, guys! Sorry! I didn't have much time here in the last few days and didn't get to check this or vote. Sorry! I'll make up for it next time. [color=blue][i]Athena watched Karina stomp off.[/i] [b]Athena:[/b] Uh-oh. I think I offended her... [b]Daisy:[/b] Heyyy! Guess who's back! [b]Athena:[/b] Ohh, not you again! I thought I told you to leave me alone! [b]Daisy:[/b] Fat chance, girly! Hey Geroshi! [b]Geroshi:[/b] Uh, yes? [b]Daisy:[/b] Let's streak! Whaddya say?[/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Lady Asphyxia[/i] [b]Personally, I'd love to be the mod of that place[/b][/QUOTE] [color=blue]Rae, you'd have quite a bit of competition for mod of that place:p Ok, I'll get serious now... I am one of the regular posters in the NL, and I do agree that it does get spammy. Sorry. I'm not going to fight about it, it's your decision if it goes or not. I personally think you should try the mod idea, and if that doesn't work, get rid of it altogether. The more I read about the 'My Otaku' idea, the better it sounds. it would be a good place for Newbies. It would cover all the stuff we don't get around to telling them.[/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Solo Tremaine[/i] [b]It's 8:57am on the 5th already here[/b][/QUOTE] [color=blue]It's 9:19pm on the fifth where I am now...I may be a little late for this...hope that's not a problem[/color]

[color=blue]hey, Blanko, could you post a complete list of the people involved?[/color]

[color=blue]Athena awoke to find her roommate still had not arrived. [i]He'd better get here soon! If I don't have a partner, I'll be really pissed off[/i], she thought as she stood up groggily. She changed into jeans and a shirt and left to walk around. She strolled around the garden for a while and almost ran into a girl with a sheepish look on her face who was holding a knife in one hand. "What'd you do?" Athena asked "I, um, think I just fatally wounded a cat..." the girl replied. "Ohh...um, okay. Right, so who are you?" "Not to good with introductions, are you? I'm Rae" "Well, introductions never were my strong point. I'm Athena." Athena told her, sitting down on a bench, "So, do you know when we start training?"[/color] OOC: Where the hell [i]is[/i] my roommate anyway?

[color=blue]Well, if Rae is pulling out, I'll be flower girl...I'm 14 though...[/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Mystic's Knight[/i] [b]Mitch: hell.. i thought he was a girl..[/b][/QUOTE] [color=blue]I thought he was a girl as well...poor Mitch:p Lady Asphyxia, before I got to know you better, I thought you were shy/quiet (oh, how terribly wrong I was;)). That's changed now...and I imagine that you have dark hair, dark eyes. Don't ask why. That's just the impression I get I usually imagine what someone looks like from their avatar...like Juu, when I saw her pic, she looked similar to what I'd thought she would, because she looks similar to her av. I imagine Mist looking like her av as well. There's a few others, but I can't really think of them right now[/color]

[color=blue]I do believe in life after death...re-incarnation and karma and that. Beings from outer space as well. We can't be alone in this universe...it's too big. I'm not sure if I believe in stroies about people being abducted...but those stories do freak me out.[/color]

[color=blue]Athena slowly turned around and looked back at the group. "If we seperate, you'll just end up getting yourself lost," Kevin told the girls, "you don't want that, do you?" "But...but...I hate rats...they bite" Athena replied. "Well, if you stick with the group, we'll get out of here sooner" Kevin told her. [i]Why does he have to be so logical?[/i] Athena thought to herself, walking back to the group. "Come on, come on, let's keep moving" Geroshi said impatiently. The group followed the old hag further into the sewer. They walked for about 10 minutes, but nobody was really keeping track of the time. "She'd better know where she's going" someone whispered after a while, "because if we get lost -" They were cut off by Geroshi, turning to face the group. "Quiet! We're here!"[/color]

[color=blue]Looks like fun...I'll go[/color]
