@Marik: XD;; Didn't know you liked being called that as your mule. That was just me forgetting that you were using your mule account, because your way of talking and red font makes me not pay attention to your username and avatar half the time. XD;; But I'll just start calling you Marik all the time then. ^^
And I do sound like I don't like people, but it's more like I don't like being close to people... I need a lot of free space and privacy, otherwise I start to get really upset and take it out on other people. That's why I think I'd do better living alone, because I really do enjoy being around other people only occasionally, like maybe once a week or so... XD;;
But I usually have the house to myself, thank God, because all of my siblings have moved out and my parents work/have social lives a lot.
Never seen Berserk though. XD
And your hypothetical children sound amazing. XD
And I have one full sister, who would be a worse mother than me (she wants to be a mother but she's an emotional wreck and her boyfriend abuses/kills her cats), so my mom doesn't even want her to have kids. I have a half brother on my mom's side, who has one kid who's about eight months old right now. (so my mom hasn't been bugging me so much; my brother is over thirty now though and had tried for years to have a kid with his ex-wife, who the second they divorced got knocked up by some other guy, and now with his wife they had been trying to get pregnant for a few years, so we were really starting to think my brother was infertal, because his wife had been pregnant once before, but they finally had one, so my mom is happy ^^) *takes deep breath* What I mean, is that I was the only kid of her's who my mom thought could handle a kid/was fertal, so she used to bother me a lot about it, but now that she has a grandson she's happy. As for my dad, he doesn't really give a damn because I have three half-sisters on his side, all of who have kids. (one has a son (about four), one has a daughter (about one), and the last has three daughters (about two, and then identical twins who are almost ten))
@Mariku Ishtaru: Gah, your avatar is smexy! X3
@Akila: Calling people "Marik" doesn't bug me, because I started watching in Japanese when Battle City started airing dubbed, so I always more used to calling him "Malik." XD;;
I can put up with close-contact with my family (like I'll hug my brother and his wife whenever I see them or I'll cuddle my mom if she's crying to help her feel better) but overall I really just don't like it. But I've grown up with a cuddly mom and many other cuddly people, so I have a good idea of what it's like for roleplays. ^^
@Marik: I seem like a perfectionist to a lot of people, but I'm really not... all my art has a... "rushed" look to it, which I really didn't like at first and tried to fix, but eventually I just had to accept it as my style, because I sweart I've tried my hardest to change it and can't... but it's weird though, because I take longer on most of my projects then most of my friends, and their's looks neater... o.o *shrugs* But my style's kind of grown on me, so whatever. ^^ My art teacher really helped; he said it looked modern and unique, and said he wished he had more students who didn't all have similar styles. But I'm sure your stories are really good! D: *wants to read them* Of course, I wouldn't push you... ^^;;
@Akila: I've always pronounced it "Ah-kee-la," but I can try to change it in my head. XD;; Whoops...
And I'm definitely not a perfectionist with cleaning... my mom wishes otherwise though... ^^;; I am a perfectionist with video games though! It bothers me if I don't 100% things, even though I rarely have the time to... ^^;; But anyway, isn't the point of roleplays to be enjoyed by the fans? Of course, you still want a character to seem like themselves, but at the same time, isn't a little OoC-ness more fun? ^^ It takes us to a new world outside of the anime and manga, and gives us new insight into the characters, even if we were the ones who created that insight. <3
And lawl Malik on speed.
And I hate Guitar Hero... absolutely detest it... XD;;;;

@Kitsune: Ah, but that is right! Erm, I put two "L"'s in my way of saying it. Um, so you were saying my name right!! GOMEN!!! gonk Um, so don't change your way of saying it!!! O_o;; Just call me the loser who can't spell out her own username correctly.... -.-
@Kavvana: Um... well, I guess I ought to feel proud now?! The thing about the roleplay is they were forcing him off of it, so he was emo and trying to recover from drug addiction the whole time. Which made his relationship with Jounouchi... very... very... irate. sweatdrop So, I liked it. It was one of my funnest roleplays. Jounouchi's dad ended up getting murdered, Malik worked at a strip club and... Yami no Malik had his own body. He was dating Yami no Yuugi... (erm sorta) ...and they lived in a house with Jounouchi and emo Malik. They had a golden retriever puppy named Kohaku that Malik bought for Jounouchi to say sorry when they got in a fight. heart (Can you tell I'm pet obsessive Kitsune? XD; ) But yea, it was wacky. The oddest part was... everybody was VERY in character.... Odd, considering the circumstances... but that made it better... tehe.
Yea, I'd write in purple... but um... then it'd be hard to distingish my roleplay writing with my real writing I guess. (I use purple 99% of the time when I roleplay..)
You have art?! I wanna see! I feel outta the loop now!! O_O
@Kitsune: B-but... Guitar Hero rocks... ahem.. pun not intended. I wish it was foreign music too sometimes... but, I like all music, so I'm not too too picky about it.... um.... yea, I don't mind a bit ooc... just not too much... *malik skips through flowers and sings about bunnies* would be what I don't like. *growl*

@Marik: My mom's just happy if I clean my room at all... XD;;
And maybe. XD But I do always recognize you right away just through your writing. <3
I only feel close to my parents and my brother and his wife and son really... I used to be close to my full sister, but I'm just so utterly pissed off and sick of her right now that I don't even like being around her anymore. I get along well with my other sisters, and I'm reletively close to one of them, the one with the twin daughters. (I am pretty close to the twins compared to my other neises/nephews on my dad's side) But I'm the only one left living with parents now, and I love it. Being the youngest, I never got to experience being an only child, so finally I am, and I just love having the house to myself. I really am a selfish person... I don't like to share, so I didn't do well living with my full sister, especially because she's alwasy so needy. But yeah, I have a really big family, but I prefer to stay away from them as much as I can. But you're lucky you've gotten to be an only child your entire life. ^^ That is, unless you want siblings...
And I am completely serious aobut he abusing/killing of cats. I don't wanna get into details, but my sister lives with him and they had three cats. There were signs of abuse for a while, and by now two of the cats have "dissappeared' while her boyfriend was home alone with them. I love cats so much, probably my favorite animals besides foxes. (though I like snakes a lot too...) And I was so attached to both those cats, especially the second one to dissappear. The second one was even named after me, Kitsune. D; She had a tail that looked almost exactly like a fox tail, and she was the sweetest cat in the world. My sister is like the only person in existance right now who refuses to believe that he killed them. I'm tired of seeing my mom cry because of that.
But Spooner sounds so awsome! I'm always glad to hear that cats can be so helpful... people always say they're useless compared to dogs, but that's not true. I like cats because they really are "man's best friend." Dogs are "man's best servant" but cats are "man's best friend." People think dogs are better friends because they'll do whatever you train them to do. That's not friendship; that's servitude. Cats don't lower themselves to that. They'll be close with you and show you love, but they won't let you push them around, and I love that, because that's how actual friends are. (don't get me wrong, I still love dogs, but I just wish people wouldn't prefer them simply because they listen more)
And I hightly doubt that... your art is probably really nice-looking compared to mine. ^^;;
And I loooove Japanese, Italian, and German music! <3 Haven't really listened much to French, but I don't really like the language so...
@Akila: Ah, I see. XD;; Good, I don't have to change what's in my head then.
And that roleplay sounds awsome. XD *wants to read*
I'm the same way; I'd write in green, but I do so often in roleplays it would get confusing...
And I wanna see your art too Marik! D;
Guitar Hero is just... incredibly boring to me... it feels like I'm just playing DDR with the controller... that's just about what it is... DDR, except you're pressing buttons instead of dancing. I'd rather dance.

^^;; Yeah, I love cats so much. We have two here, though both are pretty old. (one's twelve and the other eleven) But the twelve-year-old, Shadow, is one of my best friends. She gets scared easily (not so much anymore; we think it's because she's going old and senile) but me and my mom were like the only people she trusted back in her wimpy days. Even though she originally belonged to the family, she's kind of become my cat, and she follows me wherever I go in the house. Shadow's lately become sweet to strangers too though. o.o It used to be everytime someone she didn't know well came into the house, she would run and hide, but now she stays out and lets complete strangers pet her. *is so proud of her kitty* The people who gave her to us said her mom was like that too; scared all the time but would get better as she got older. Shadow's a tourtoise-shell by the way. What breed is Spooner? (our other cat, J.C. is a mutt... XD;; )
And yeah, I remember you telling about your brother. I can see why you'd wanna meet him (it is good to have siblings as long as you're not living with them...) so I hope you get to one day. ^^ And I'm sorry to hear that about your sister...
And don't worry about offending him; I wanna hit him with a bat too. This morning I was kind of creeped out because I had a vision that he killed my sister and then commited suicide... while I can't say I value animal lives equal to human (I'm Christian, so I believe that God gave humans reign over other creatures), I do value them enough to not kill them needlessly. I only kill insects if they're dangerous (like black widows, scorpions, and mosquitos) and while I do eat meat, I could never kill an animal just out of anger or anything... I guess what I'm saying is I value animal lives enough not to want them dead unless their deaths would benefit humans in a way that is important to us. (for example, I agree with medicine being tested on animals, but not cosmetics)
And we have two dogs also. ^^ Ryley, who's half-bassett hound, half-beegle, and Ren, who is a total mutt. (we think she's a mix of white German Shepperd and some other crap. She kind of looks like a dingo though, so we often joke that she eats babies XD)
I promise I would never make fun of your art! ;_; I might give constructive critisism for improvement, but that's it, and I wouldn't even do that if you didn't want me to! But... well, I'm in advanced Art classes at school, so while I still have a lot to learn myself, I could try giving you some tips if you want...

I feel like I've missed so much... gonk
I like so many animals, it's hard to choose. Yay, somebody else likes snakes too! Most people say they are scary... I say they are purdy!! ^^ But I really love foxes, wolves and sea otters... and killer whales... and... gah, so many animals are wonderful! I love both my kitty and my puppy, so I can't choose. My puppy is a black lab/border collie mix named Kaya. And my kitty a Russian Blue (or at least part) named Ed. But, Ed is a girl. I was 6 when I named her after the hyena from Lion King. I feel sorta bad now... ^^;;
My kitty also follows me and such. But sometimes it's bothersome. Other times I like it. I don't like her sleeping on my head, and trampling my drawings and such, but it's warm and fuzzy when she sleeps next to me on a cold night. (If it's hot I push her off... XD wink
I wouldn't make fun of you either, Kavvana! I love budding artists. I'm actually gonna be an Art major, so I'm trying my hardest to get better and better - and I love giving advice too. I struggled in my AP Art class, but I managed to become the best person to go to for art advice... for some reason... I guess I'm good at analyzing stuff... or something? ^^;;
KITSUNE? Scorpians? Wah? So they really do have them all over Arizona? That's so nifty! And scary! But it's sorta neat too!! =3
Haha, I dance when I play Guitar Hero... but oh well. I've never played DDR actually. I love the music, but I've never had the chance to play it... so I haven't... *sweatdrop*

@Akila: Snakes are so cuuuute! X3 I also really like anything in the canine or feline families, most birds, and well... most animals actually. XD;;
But don't fret about naming your cat; Shadow, who is female, was named after Shadow, the male dog, in Homeward Bound. XD;;
And we don't really have them *all over* Arizona, but in certain areas there are a lot of them. I just depends if there was a nest in the area before all the houses were built. But to tell the truth, I've lived in Arizona my entire life but I've only seen two scorpions ever outside of cages: the one that crawled on me and then a baby one once sitting on a rock at a water park. But that doesn't mean they aren't around; they're good a hiding like spiders, though I've never heard of one being found in my neighborhood thank God. But scorpions for us are about as common as... venomous spiders are in other states maybe...?
Ah, you really should try DDR, even if you just spend a dollar at an arcade to try it out. ^^ It's loads of fun.
@Marik: All three of our cats love us then! XD My cat used to sleep with me every night until I got the six-food tall bed. Now she only sleeps with me if I'm in a good enough mood to put her up on it before I go to bed.
And my sister's safe; I just saw her today... Kind of creepy that I got that vision right before seeing her though, because it had been a few weeks since I last saw her.
And I've always been more... away from the darkside than your average anime fan... XD;; I like how dark things look, in like a pretty artsy way, but I've never been that into anime villains and that kind of stuff. Occult stuff interests me, but more from a learning view than anything.
And my mom wouldn't let me get a snake or a tarantula... D: The most she's ever let me get are hissing cockroaches and millipedes. Hissing cockroaches are okay; they're cute but at the same time kind of boring. It's funny to make them hiss when you poke them though. XD;; I love millipedes though; they're so awsome! X3 I've had two, but both have died by now. All my cockroaches have too. We also had fish, a snail, guinea pigs, and a hampster, but those were all a long time ago, so everything has died by now. (our guinea pigs lived to be friggin' old though, like almost eight years old! o.o) And I was born in the year of the snake too. X3 We don't get that many in Arizona though. Sometimes there would be some garden snakes in fields near our houses (I did see one by our front door at our old house once), but otherwise I almost never see any. We also have a lot of rattlesnakes and some diamond backs in the wild areas, but they hide a lot so I've never seen any.
And I wish my school had AP Art! D: Once we get passed Art IV it just goes to independent study... But... my worst thing in Art is... probably staying in the lines. XD;;;;

I dunno, AP art was annoying.. ^^; ... and, our school is huge. Or was. (I graduated) Seriously, I took 6 art classes there in my four years, and there were still 4 more I could've taken. O_o;
But yea, I hate proportions, I'm so horrible with it. That's why I draw Still Life better than anime. I'm fine with shading though... it's one of the things I can do, and it is useful for making something look better. I've also been trying crosshatching and shading with ink; and some stuff with colored pencils. But I give up on painting... that is just annoying.
Hm... I don't know. I like villains a lot; but not really because of their darkside, as much as I want to discover what is hidden beneath the dark exterior; the reasons for them becoming a villain, what is their motive? So, villains with a dark childhood, tearshed and hearbreak are on the top of my list. The crazy psycho ones... I like them too; but not so much. I like characters with depth. Of course, that doesn't mean I'm going to stop trying to find depth in them... it's just harder with some characters. I'd probably say I'm in between both of you guys in your views. While I do like A LOT of villains, I also like a lot of non-villain characters too... and if they have a troubled past too, I like them more. ^^;;
I've never seen a snake in my yard, but I wanna! That'd be so cool! *sigh* Oh well... umm... I've never had a pet bug. Just a hermit crab... and those are bad memories... O_O
Yay! I'm year of the snake too! *high five*
.... I don't wanna play DDR in an arcade, because people will look at me and how much I suck. A few of my friends have the game... so hopefully we can play it sometime... (I'll still suck just in front of people I know)

@Akila: I'm jealous; I wish my school had that much Art! gonk We consider Art I & II beginning, then Art III and IV Advanced, then all that's there besides those are Independent Studies, which I'll be doing next year.
And I consider myself pretty decent at proportions, at least with humans. I'm worse at shading than at proportions, but not horrible like I am with staying in the lines. XD;; I'm really best at drawing humans compared to everything else (decent at animals and monsters, especially if I have a reference), and okay at furniture... I completely, utterly suck at backgrounds... an Art project I did last year had a bassett hound in a yard, and I tried to do a brick patio and it ended up looking like a brick wall with grass growing at the top! gonk *fails* And I just recently began to appreciate painting... hated it until last year, when we had to use paint on one of our projects... my teacher helped me develop my own style, and ever since I've enjoyed painting. ^^ I just needed to find my place with it. I hate doing anything 3-D though... I'm not good with my hands, especially with things like clay.
And with character preferences... I guess I don't *try* to prefer the heroes over the villains, it just tends to happen... it's much more likely that my favorite character will be a good guy over a bad guy, but I guess that's just because I tend to like their personalities more in general. Of course, there's acceptions. Like my favorite Yami no Matsuei character is Muraki, and if he's not a villain I don't know who is! XD;; (though everyone tells me I'm a lot like Hisoka... as much as I love the kid, he's still a whiney little b***h... am I a whiney little b***h...? o.o) Oh, and I'm quite fond of Yami no Malik as well... Maybe I just like the crazies. XD;;
I remember once I took a few hermit crabs home for the weekend to watch them for my preschool (every weekend a different kid would be selected to take them home to take care of them) and the biggest one, Big Foot, died! ;_; I thought it was my fault, but it turns out he had just gotten too big for his shell so crawled out, but there was no other shell he could use so... I wasn't told to do anything except feed them (I was allowed to hold them too) so even though I felt bad, the teachers assured me it wasn't my fault, thank God... *mourns for Big Foot* I like hermit crabs though, they're cute. ^^ Why were they bad memories for you? o.o
And trust me, half the people who play DDR in arcades look stupid. XD It's common sight, and people are used to it. No one makes fun of you; they instead realize that you're a beginner so are happy to see you trying to improve yourself. I, for one, suck at DDR, but I still play it at arcades. (I only have the Gamecube Mario one, and that one's just not as good as the acade DDR, so yeah... XD;; ) But I hope you do get to play sometime! ^^
@Marik: I'd never be able to practice anything occult... my mom doesn't even let me play Dungeons and Dragons... ^^;; (she'll let me play any other table-top RPG though thank God...)
And you've had lizards? D: Lucky! I've always wanted to get one of those fat-tailed geckos in pet stores but they're so expensive! We only get these really mean brown, ugly geckos in my area (never seen any other kind of lizard in the wild) and will bite you if you get near... they're always running along our walls and stuff, and they're at just about any house you go to in the deserty part of Arizona. Never would bother capturing those; they're not even that cute in my opinion... we really don't have many wild things to catch here, and I'm always afraid I wouldn't be able to take care of them properly if I did. Most of our wild creatures are dangerous (black widows, wolf spiders, scorpions, and disease-ridden field mice) that I wouldn't capture any. We get the occasional praying mantis, which I would like to have as a pet, but they're so useful to gardens and yards that I would never remove one, especially since they're so rare. I wanna salamander... D: Never cared much for rabbits, but I love guinea pigs... (so much more sweet and cuddly than hampsters and mice) It would be really neat to have a bird though! X3 My mom would never let me though. It's not that she's scared of them like snakes and tarantulas, but she doesn't like how loud they are and how much they bite...
And I LOVE Wii boxing! X3 My favorite of the Wii Sports cames. <3 I've made Jounouchi box before; that was fun...

Yay, I'm not a whiney little b***h! XD In yo face Hisoka! mad
And that's... that's crazy! You're lucky you were never bitten! o.o That's so sad that you would torture them like that though. XD;;;
And the skin part was... special... I read a long time ago that Malik skinned his father alive in the manga, but when I actually saw it, I hadn't realized that he only skinned his back off, and I was kind of grossed out when he threw it on top of poor Rishid. XP
And the Jounouchi in the speedo lawl. There was a point shortly after that where he was butt-nekkid, but it was only in one panel, and he was half-covered by a locker or something. XD;;
