Discuss Gifts and Curses: The Underground [M-LVS]

[Darren]

Sorry about that. It's been really hectic. I've got a major book report due monday. And I've got 2 articles I have to write that were due Friday... Ahhh, And there's a few tests on Monday. I'm overloaded right now. I don't mind if someone posts taking control of Cat, but if they do, would they mind stringing Brian along as well. I just don't have the time to post until I get all this crap finishe. Hopefully by Monday or Tuesday. And I thought the RP was just slowing down due to vacations and stuff caused by Thanksgiving and the upcoming Christmas... Anyway, I'll do my best to get right on it.

[SIZE=1][COLOR=DarkSlateGray]Today, today I shall post...once I think to do with my water-phobic-Moses, o' course. : P[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]You can have Charlie-boy start fights and beat people up later, Ozy =p

Good to know you're all still interested too. I know it's the holidays, but let's see if we can get this chapter finished fer Christmas, eh? I have something fun planned. I'll be posting tomorrow, anyway.

It was just a 'friendly' reminder guys, heh ^_~ I wasn't busy so I kinda forgot about holidays... I dun live in America so there's no Thanksgiving for me and I hate Christmas. Okay, maybe I don't [I]hate[/I] it, just me and Christmas don't get on well >_>;;[/SIZE]

O.o Are you even HUMAN!? I never knew that was possible.

Well all things aside I will post now since I have been very [strike]lazy[/strike] tied up with school related things.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[Darren]

Well, I see that It's already skipped a day since I last posted, (according to only1specialed) so if you don't mind guys, I plan on take Cat and myself to the bar. But there was a section where Brian fell asleep in the park... So why don't we pretent that he stayed there all night instead of a few hours... That way, when they get to the bar, we can meet up with Eddie, Eden, and Dorian and then I won't have to worry about posting this big long thing about how they eventually found their way to the Harlem College. haha, I guess that makes me lazy, but I don't have enough time.

[only1specialed]

crap crap crap now its my turn to come up with an excuse as to why i might not post as much. most of you already know that im in iraq if not there you go. that said it seems im gonna do some stuff for the next 2 1/2 weeks that will make computer usage kinda difficult. if anything ill only be able to read the story and woke have enough time to think of what i want to write. please dont kill me off cause ill be reading and if anything ill post real small post to make my presence felt. ill make one last big post before i start my small ones aight.

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]No problemo Only, just so long as you do get back to us because you're staying in this RPG whether you like it or not! =p

Guess what? If we get this chapter finished before Christmas (like I mentioned), we get a Christmas Special! It'll only last a few days, but it'll be fun. Obviously it'll revolve around Christmas and our characters. FUN STUFF YES?!

>_>
<_<
>_<

That's all I wanted to say.

On that note actually... although I suppose some of you guys would be busy, maybe at one point we can have a thread in the Anthology for seperate pieces. I'll admit to writing some stories about Dani in English, so if anyone else is interested about that, maybe we could try that when the holidays are over.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1][I]"Both sexes have a deep interest in history, a feature recognized by astrological authorities for at least two hundred years." [/I] I found that on the net regarding Virgos, How weird is it that I made my character with an interest in history!? :O
But any way...

Sorry about this guys but I?m going to be away, again, for another week. Starting Friday. Sorry everyone! That I keep running off and everything. O_o I?ll be back on the 22nd, I hope.[/SIZE]

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]=O! Zomg, weird coincidences! I think there's something strange about this RPG >_>

Annnnyway. Group in the Academy who just met Quan, or anyone else who would be there and hear what Quan has to say might want some information I sent Darren. Darren was going to post it, but he hasn't been on so I'll share it with you guys. If no one manages to post with this info I'll do a little short post for you guys. I think we should have the deadline for Cat's death on Wednesday, let's see if we can hit it ^_~

[QUOTE=Vicky Goat Your God and - *slapped*]

[SIZE=1][I]1. In most descriptions of the Zodiac, destruction, whether it be their fault or not, is present.

2. The earliest recording of the Zodiac (although they possibly existed beforehand) was in Egypt, in one of the earliest dynasties and under rulership of Hor-Aha. It is also the only record that has 14 Zodiac persons, two twins (possibly a mark of Gemini).

3. A strange point, in all the myths most people with power are considered God-like but the Zodiac are shown more as outcasts, mysterious figures rather than Gods.

4. Most recordings tell of the Zodiac before a great change in history: there is a few scrolls before the Fall of Rome, some interesting tales before Egypt was taken over in the name of Rome, a painting/art work before the Persian Wars, recordings before the Crusades and other important historical events. In each incident, the Zodiacs present would disappear in any recordings afterwards for at least fifty years, returning as completely new, different beings.

5. (this one should be mentioned, but only briefly and vaguely) There have been some connections made to the Zodiac appearances and the Bible, particulary the Life of Jesus, although this hasn't been proved it does make an interesting connection.[/I][/SIZE][/QUOTE]

So there's the information I had sent Darren. Don't worry too much about the last one, I'm not planning any bible stuff as of yet. God luck folks =)[/SIZE]

[Ozymandius Jones]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=DarkOrange]Not many of you cats are gonna like Charles much after Wednesday; that's all I'm gonna say on the matter. Oh, an' Mr. Spikey McIceman! If you post before Wednesday, make sure Eddie don't leave the room - he's gonna have some major angsting to do once Charlie-boy's done. As per prior plannage. >:3[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[4815162342]

I shall reply either Tuesday (Today...>>) or Wednesday. ^^ Once my Christmas tree stops attempting homicide. D:

Did you put God luck on purpose? Creepy.... *sci-fi music* anyway. I'm sorry about the lack of postage. I finally did it. (even though tis crap) But it got things moving. So It's for sure that we'll be killing Cat on Wednesday? (God, we sound like we're arranging a hit on somebody) I was just wondering if you had anybody lined up to play the next Pisces? Or is he/she just going to be mentioned kinda like what Cat is now -- Nvm, I feel dumb... And slightly out of the loop, but that's probably how it should be. :animestun

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]I meant to say good, but I think my brain wanted to be smart. I've warned it before about that - next time, it's gets sold on ebay.

Ah, but it's okay Darren, you posted is what matters and I am pleased indeed. So thank you. You too Starr, when you get a chance to post it's fine even if it is later, just so long as you get a little post in at some point I don't mind.

I'm not sure if we can get this done for Wednesday as I was late for posting. I went to see Cradle of Filth (by the way, the lead singer is DANI Filth, also the dude I used for the image of my character and based off him... except mine's eviler... and he SPAT on me by accident and apologised!!!!!111!!!!!11!) at a concert and the Deathstars, so I was knackered after that. Monday I slept as well, for I was ill. Tuesday I... posted =D

...Anyway, Christmas is nearly here, so I'm sure you'll all be busy. A Merry Christmas from me, who does not like it, but hopes you do.

[B]EDIT: Opps, missed the question. We don't have a replacement Zodiac yet, so if anyone has any ideas for a replacement drop me a line. Also, M.Ali hasn't been on for donkey's years... so we may need to do something about that.[/B][/SIZE]

Charles: I hate you Dani, really I do. >(

And as a headsup, Cat dies in my next post, which is halfway written - anyone who wants their character there has until tomorrow night to get them there. >=p[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[Veritas]

[size=1][color=gray]Question *Raises Hand* Uhhhh so like is the Academy going to burn down, because Charles is bleeding, and I'm assuming his blood got on more things than the gun and Dani's hand. [/color][/size]
[size=1][color=gray][/color][/size]
[size=1][color=gray]Lol, anyways I'm going to go ahead and put something in my post about a small fire, nothing too brilliant, you can make it bigger if you want Ozy. Then we can have one of the water gifted people put it out, leave it burning or I can just delete it if no one likes the idea.[/color][/size]

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]...Whoops...

...I forgot about that...

But yeah, fire = cool. Except we may want to keep the Academy around, so it's not completely burnt to the ground (or not completely burnt but can't be used again, which gives you good guys a place to meet or somethin', up to you). Though a fire is a good idea, it's a chance to have everyone with water powers put them to use. At this point in the game, I'm hoping that more people will get into using their powers as a few of us already have.[/SIZE]

[Darren]

Well I have a question followed by an idea...
First, I thought Ozy was going to post Cat's death??? I know Revelation just wrote a post that already had Cat dead, so I'm guessing we'll just back up in time again? (Time travel's neat! :animesmil )
Okay... And now the idea, I don't really want to say what it is, because it should be a surprise. But if Ozy keeps the Academy in flames by the end of the post, then I have a way Brian can stop it... And then, you know, it would be stopped. Vicky, I'll tell you if you PM me when you read this and see if it's okay... But yeah, I'm sure that will happen relitively soon, so Ozy, hurry up and post!

[B]EDIT:[/B] Whoops, I forgot. So what are we going to do about the other guy? M.Ali? He hasn't been on? Are we just going to kill him as well? Because if so, then I propose that we just make him the shadowy figure in Revelation's post and then he could die? Ah, nevermind. That would make it too random and creul since his character would have just shown up there out of nowhere. Plus, then we'd be 2 down... :animeangr

[B]EDIT X 2:[/B] Sorry Ozy, I didn't see yours or Vicky's posts. I thought that Revelation posted right after Vertias... I guess I'll go back an read it. *walks the walk of shame*

I did the most of it, now Only1 needs to elaborate on the situation. Somethings are fine to use another's character for, others...like, say, a reaction to just being used to murder a girl, well. Those the player should post themselves. =D

And as for the fire - hey. It's left Charles' body now. I've got no control over it - it'll burn until outside forces (up to including just plain time) put it out. >=D

In other news, that post was horribly fun to write. I'm a bad bad child. >> *whistles and skips away*

[b]ALSO:[/b] Veritas - that was absolutely [i]perfect[/i], you may load bases for me anytime. Lemme know how I can return the favor. =D [/COLOR][/SIZE]

[only1specialed]

[COLOR=DarkRed][COLOR=DarkRed][SIZE=3][FONT=Georgia]Eddie- i killed her.....

well i made my post and now im very sad. in other news im still gonna have trouble posting my part of the story however dont think of trying to kill me off cause i always have time to read.... i just dont have the time to think of my part of the story.

side note- i change my story a bit so that homeboy can put the fire out the way he wanted too. somebody save us from this fire[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR][/COLOR]

Yay, thanks! After I read your post, I was going to go ahead an do it before someone else got the oppurtunity to do anything. But just knowing that I got your permission makes it all the better. :D

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]Christmas Special starts on Sunday =D No rush though, you kids play arounf in the Academy. Just if you ain't finished for Sunday it's fine, when you're all done just skip ahead to a few days before Christmas or on Christmas itself, if you like. No worries about the time difference, I'm sure the character interaction won't be as huge as the last chapters unless you want it to be. No big issues this chapter, just a nice little Christmasy thing for you guys to do as you please until somewhere in Jan.

And let me just say thanks guys, the ending to the third chapter and Cat's death was very well executed by all of you. Nice going, great quality as well ^_~ let's keep up the standards.

But despite this [strike]crappy[/strike] happy holiday season, I have two problems: one is important, being we still need a replacement (possibly two if M.Ali don't post) and second being I can't think of a title for the Christmas Special ;_;

[I]Note: I'm not really as much a scrooge as I pretend, you know =p[/I][/SIZE]

[Revelation]

[size=1][color=#4B5B5B]Well if M.Ali doesn't post soon, I could always kill him off. I mean, my character's been itching to release some anger issues she's suppressed. =P

But anyways, I can't wait for the Christmas special. Drinking, partying, chaos, oh how the city will fall to its knees in the wake of our presence.[/size][/color]
