Jaakuna Sawada, The Sundance Kid

---

When Jaakuna’s balled up fist went into Takeshi’s mouth, Jaakuna, for that instant, felt a feeling of sudden relief as he thought he had Takeshi’s tongue right in the first go. However, as he would soon find out, that would not be the case.

“OUCH!” Jaakuna yelled out in flesh-ripping agony.

He felt the surprising sharpness of Takeshi’s pearly whites. He felt Takeshi biting down into the bone of his fingers, blood was slowly dripping from each finger. Jaakuna tried to pull his hand away, but Takeshi had a surprisingly strong grip on them, preventing Jaakuna from going anywhere.

When Takeshi started speaking, Jaakuna somehow felt a little off hearing his words. Call it a gut feeling, but Jaakuna definitely felt something. It could just be the pain that Jaakuna was feeling from his almost-snapped-in-half fingers, but there was a definite ominous feeling that he was getting. On the mention of Jaakuna getting stabbed in the heart, The Sundance Kid arched an eyebrow. He did not want to become the next victim in some kind of murder spree. So, Jaakuna had to react fast or he could say goodbye to life.

“You present a valid point, but hell to the no,” Jaakuna said.

Taking rather precise and quick action, Jaakuna pulled his body away from Takeshi’s, shredding some of his skin on his hand, but that was nothing compared to the injuries he surely faced in this prolonged fight. Five paces away from Takeshi, Jaakuna looked back at the green-haired freak with cautious eyes. He didn’t know if he should go in for an attack again of wait for Takeshi to do so. He had two parts of his body that were slightly injured and with Takeshi entering some kind of murderer persona, the thoughts of more of his limbs getting injured seemed to be at the forefront of Jaakuna’s mind.

Rin Reikan, Ice Minx

“What the fuck are you doing here Mia?” Rin asked annoyed.

Obviously not the first thing that most people would say to someone that just saved their lives, but Rin wasn’t most people and Mia wasn’t either. Not like Rin was complaining. Mia saved her life and it was definitely appreciated, but it still confused her as to why the uchiha was in Yukigakure in the first place.

Rin wouldn’t have that much time to chit-chat with Mia as the owl lady came in for round two, this time it was a round of Taijutsu.

When she came in with transformed claw hands, Rin dodged each strike, darting to left and then the right, ducking when needed and jumping above when the opportunity presented itself. When the owl lady went in for another round, Rin repeated her actions, but when the second hand came in, Rin caught it with her left arm, grabbing that specific claw arm by the wrist. Rin would then assume a judo manuver as she use gravity by pulling the owl lady down and planting her right foot into the owl lady’s gut, and by allowing the momentum to control he movements, Rin flipped the lady overhead with a gentle push of chakra out from the soles of her feet, and sent the lady flying in the opposite direction.

Why do you RP?

I have always wondered that about myself. Like, why do I roleplay? Do I do it to escape reality? Do I do it to further expand my imagination? Do I do it just to create a world? I've never thought about it seriously...until now.

To answer this question, I had to scale back to exactly why I started roleplaying in the first place, and to do that, I have to think back to 2008 when I joined my first official forum. It was a Kingdom Hearts Fansite by the name of Khinsider. It's rping section is pretty much dead now, so I have long since given up on it, but at the time that I joined it(early 08'), Rping wasn't the main reason. I joined it originally for something on there called the RPG Inferno. I guess in a way it was a roleplaying experience, but it was, on its core, a browser game. A lot of people played it and there were frequent pvp moments. I don't know how it happened, but one day I found myself going through KHI's roleplaying section, and I became interested. Now, mind you, I was really noobish then, so I had no idea what I was doing. However, what I didn't know at the time, that one decision to venture into roleplaying would change my life forever. Okay, I get that sounded really cheesy and corny, but it's the truth.

As I joined more rps as the months went on, I soon found myself becoming so immersed into the lives of my characters. Eventually, my own self was integrating into them and I found that creating these stories with friends and fellow roleplayers was something I enjoyed doing quite a bit. It even got to the point where I would venture into the territory of making my own rp. When I think back, the first couple of tries were failures. I guess that's to be expected considering not all great stories are successful on the first try. One has to go through several tries before one finally sticks and after the fifth one, I found success...for a while, that is.

Outside the initial interest of creating a story and the characters in it, Roleplaying for me was an escape. You see, my life wasn't what one would call glamorous. Actually, it was pretty shitty and writing with like-minded individuals brought me a certain amount of comfort and acceptance that I couldn't get in my real life. From that shared interest, I found myself making some of the best friends I have ever had in my entire life -- online or otherwise. I went on to creating stories and writing them out with them and only them. I guess in a clique of sorts. Never thought I would have one of those, but here it is.

I guess at the end of the day, Roleplaying has become a mix of exploring my imagination, creating worlds, expanding my writing capabiltiies, and escaping real life. I still find joy in doing all of those things. I'm even finding new ways to further my imagination by joining more and more rps. I think I'll probably keep on doing it as long as I can. Either until I start my career as a writer -- yes, I plan on doing that -- or I die. Probably the former when you consider realism lol.

Why is Casual so much more popular than Free or Advanced?

I think @Ether touched on an interesting point. Casual always seemed to me to be the section that most go to for their roleplaying needs because it's higher on the quality scale than Free, but it doesn't have the strictness that Advanced often imposes on its players. It's sort of that middleground of the two.

Jaakuna Sawada, Sundance Kid

"Having a change of heart, are we?" Jaakuna commented in response to Miyaka's new proposal. All Jaakuna would have to do was rip Takeshi's tongue out. Sounded easy enough.

Jaakuna looked at his devious teammate with a grin on his face. In his mind, he was deciding what to do. Sure, he could just as easily take the spoiled brat on her offer and do as she commanded, but then that would mean that he was just like Tsukiko. Granted, Jaakuna would love to shut Takeshi up once and for all and even the possibility of the terrorist charges was a good motivator for Jaakuna to do as she said. However, there was still that little voice in Jaakuna's head that was telling him to continue with what he was doing and fuck everything what Miyaka said. He has done a great job of doing that thus far, so why would he stop now? For the slight glimmer of hope that the cunt might actually grow a decent bone at the last minute? Jaakuna was unsure there.

Jaakuna turned to Miyaka briefly, "You know I don't trust you one bit. I still think you're a spoiled little cunt who doesn't deserve to have anybody at your beckon call, but..." Jaakuna paused, smiling, "I don't care at the moment. I'm going to let everything you said about my family slide for the moment because right now, Takeshi is pissing me off for actually trying to blow up my leg just a minute ago." It seemed that Jaakuna had made up his mind.

Leaping off his good leg, Jaakuna went forth to Takeshi as he would be airborne to the left of Takeshi, his right arm going forth towards the tongue of his classmate. Jaakuna wanted to get it on the first go.

When the idea was said about breaking Jaakuna’s legs, the blonde looked at Miyaka with a totally surprised and just as equally angered facial expression. He couldn’t believe that this little bitch would actually do such a thing. First she made Jaakuna go after that Jounin which resulted in him almost getting hauled off to the police station. He honestly would had preferred that to happen as compared the next couple of things that happened to him. It was after getting almost arrested that Jaakuna had painballs shot at him to which he reacted not in the most intelligent way. In hinesight, Jaakuna probably should have just went home, but he didn’t and that’s when he got a knife to the knee.

And now there’s this shit.

“What did you fucking say you little cunt?” Jaakuna said, not holding back his tongue. It’s not like things could get any worse.

And then the mention of exploding tags came.

Fuck.

There was little time for Jaakuna to react to Takeshi aiming to slap an exploding tag on Jaakuna’s right leg and even less due to his limping state. So, what did the blonde do? Well, he did the only thing that he could do. Jaakuna, at the same moment the tag was slapped on his leg, removed it and put it on the balcony right behind him and started to limp away from it. Of course, after Takeshi almost instantly formed a hand seal, the tag exploded, knocking a huge chunk of the balcony with it.

Jaakuna sighed in great relief as he knew that could have been his leg. He then looked at Takeshi straight dead in the eyes. “I hope you know this means we aren’t friends anymore.” Jaakuna said to Takeshi as his Meteor flared up. Even though Jaakuna was injured, he wasn’t going to let his legs get blown off without a fight.

Rin Reikan, Ice Minx

As her own attack hit her target, Rin had a feeling of relief, but it only lasted for a short bit. The person that she hit did the same to Rin as the Ice Minx was shot forth towards an array of feathers coming at her from her other side. Realizing what was happening, Rin started forming hand seals. “Ice Release: Shards of Ice!” Rin called out as chakra flew from her mouth in the form of razor sharp shards of ice. They met with the feathers and demolished them completely.

As Rin would slide on the ground through the crystallized feathers, she would turn her head and notice her opponent coming at her. Rin didn’t even think, she reacted instinctively. She reached into her tools pouch and pulled out a kunai knife. She then lept forward and met the flying pirate dead on with her Kunai aimed at the chick’s head.
