[quote=@ReaptheMusic] I especially refer to her 'excelled grace' on the boat when fighting off fiends, and a myriad of other movement techniques. You say she's imperfect, personality wise, then why do those flaws go away when it's convenient? She's been nothing but a perfect friend to those around her and she's not even once tried to fight someone within the group. Are you afraid of her looking bad? When it comes to Saina, yes, she is graceful and elegant, yes, she is calm, but she is far from perfect. She got caught in a net, a rather large and easily unavoidable one. She got captured. She couldn't slay the kraken on her own. She [i]needed[/i] the help she got. and Yet you still question [i]her[/i] sense of perfection even with these physical flaws. The tone of that might sound accusatory due to the 'language' of computer text and all but I do mean it. You still appear to find Saina to be cool and near flawless even though she's presented several flaws and has struggled physically and mentally over the course of the rp. The point is you can have your cake and eat it too. If you WANT us to perceive her as being flawed, as being incredibly rough, as being someone who came from nothing like you make her out to be, then you've done a very poor job of [i]showing it to us.[/i] What you KNOW about a character means nothing unless it is SEEN. X3 Edit: Wakka and Tidus? And you expect us to believe she's super graceful. This is Wakka. WAKKA. [img]http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpsqu2H8Wl1qcuk77.jpg[/img] Nobody is going to learn to be graceful, MUCH LESS with a sword, from Wakka OR TIDUS FOR THAT MATTER. Have you seen the guy fight??? He himself is REALLY not that good. He gets the job done, that's for sure, but he definitely has no style to it x-x Auron, now he had style. If you ask me, a 6'8 hulking woman is never going to be graceful. The words that come to mind are clunky, awkward, but entirely practical. [/quote] And Alex hasn't fought the Kraken. She hit one tentacle. Stuck in the edge of the ship. She almost got hit by a beam if not for Urick. She only fought all the little creature on the ship and the only actual big creature she did fight was the Garuda which did fuck her up. Saina, fought the Kraken with help and one shotted Aeon Nai. Granted, she did get really drained on it, but it is now a known ability she can magically push ice from in a body and out. And I figured after twenty years, Tidus would have gotten a bit better at the sword. He isn't a kid anymore. As for a friend, she's only really been a perfect friend to Naisha. From the beginning and now. She's kinda treated Urick poorly and a bit Gippal. For a good portion of the time. She was good to them until the temple point. What did she do as thanks for Urick when he saved her. Yelled at him. She did apologize but still, not a good friend if you yell at a longtime friend for saving your ass. Or when she met Eva, what she do? Jump to conclusions, snap at Eva, yell at them and storm off. Yes, she asked Urick for a explanation, but she hardly gave him any time to properly reply despite knowing how he is. And didn't really talk to them on good terms until on the boat. And even then it was only cause she was listening the story. And when they got to the island and was starting being nice to them, she snapped again in town. I mean she made Urick disgusted. Urick. And now, she snapped at her friend again, being Braska, giving her sound advice to shut the hell up. As for not fighting, why? In what point did any of them cause a reason for a fight? I probably should of put Sifen since ya know, he looked suspicious with bringing in the Calvary xD Plus, when was there time for fighting? They got on the boat, slept, got in a battle, got shipwrecked, relaxed a few breathes then more shit started xD But the reason is she is trying not to fight them because they are Guardians. She takes guardianship seriously and that means trying to not fight other guardians unless it is sparring which will probably be a thing when everyone is healthy. It will probably still happen and granted I didn't explain that in post. But again, none of them really have done much, even Saina whom Alex has barely spoken to. Only to say rotten things, or when Urick was involved. She will probably be angry again with Urick and Braska. And look what she did now, she got her friends in trouble with the law and KO'd. At their first temple beside Besaid. In like a hour. Good friend. XD Does she try her best to protect them? Yes. But to be a "perfect" friend it takes more than that. But hey, I know you don't care for me. But, I shall attempt to try a bit better and apologize for being a appalling Rper xD [quote=@Experiment 249] >Sifen not being mentioned as having adventure experience Motherfuckin' been lost since he was 9. He's got this adventure shit on lock, just not so much jungles. and cities. I think he's my favorite too though, but I'm biased. EDIT: Read the post wrong, noticed you were listing people WITHOUT experience EDIT part 2: You're gonna see Sifen and his whole interaction with magic soon with the chair. So stay tuned for that, haha. [/quote] I'm strangely excited for this.
