Being truly on my own is a bit of a weird feeling. It's never really happened.

Let it never be said that sometimes extreme brevity isn't the most appropriate post, though. Everything is a tool.

I still have a few OCG cards, though. :p

Don't forget the all-important rule changes that came with Pendulum:- First turn player can't draw on their first turn- Both players can have a field spell at the same time <---- this one I like


First one is annoying, I guess.

Second, however, is glorious: no longer can field spells be countered by playing field spells! Hurrah!
Anno, I've PM'ed you.
"Now that's more like it!" Charlotte cheered, apparently not bothered in the slightest by her loss of lifepoints in this duel, "But you made one crucial mistake: leaving me with Photon Dragon in my hand gives me even more ways to get it back. Not that I have a shortage; don't use this thing competitively for a reason. Well, a reason other than upsetting Puddingcess."

Drawing a card cheered her up all the more, which could not be good news for her opponent. In retrospect, the worst thing Shana could have done is destroy the tiger, as it let her start playing cards that would get Galaxy-Eyes' big brother back. The 100 lifepoint thing was a bit annoying, though.

"First, I play Accellight, and summon Galaxy Wizard!" the gangleader stated, summoning a 0 attack monster... in face-up attack mode, "Whose effect I activate to bump its level to level 8. This means I can now play..."

"Galaxy Expedition!" the redhead continued, playing another spell card and playing the dragon again, though coiled up and ready to defend. This, of course, didn't matter to the girl playing the cards at all: "I now overlay Galaxy-Eyes and Galaxy Wizard, and XYZ summon Number 62: Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon!"

The rank 8 card was big, and far more humanoid than its predecessor. It also, alarmingly, had 4,000 attack as compared to Galaxy-Eyes' 'meagre' 3,000.

"You ready for the end? Dragon, attack Vulcan... oh, and detach Galaxy Wizard," Charlotte ordered, cheerfully discarding the fully expendable material, which sent the dragon's attack skyrocketing to 5,600. Enough that, unless Shana had an immediate way to stop the dragon or its damage, victory was assured for Team Dragon, courtesy of a punch to the face from the XYZ.

Melody killed someone. Thought that was important enough to mention, even though you don't really care.


Not something worth caring about if you're going to adopt that attitude, correct.
Annoyingly, I appear to have no internet connection.
So, Charlotte now has a coherent VA! That is, Hidaka Noriko.
Galaxy Wizard stood no chance against the spindly creature's flames, and quickly found its way to the graveyard. Charlotte didn't seem at all bothered by the loss of the level 4 monster--why should she? Sure, it delayed getting a Rank 8 XYZ, but it wasn't like she needed the thing to do a whole lot of damage. And, well, it wasn't a good sign for Shana when the redhead started laughing at her own draw:

"Ah, bad luck, bad luck; I sometimes regret using this stuff at all, even just for fun. So destructive, isn't it, Puddingcess?" the duellist asked, playing her freshly drawn card: "I play Photon Stream of Destruction, and Banish Waarm."

The result was predictably apocalyptic: Galaxy-Eyes reared back and let lose an incandescent torrent of light... light that melted away the flames, dissembling them piece by piece until nothing was left. And that meant less damage from graveyard effects. Painful, really.

"I summon Photon Sabre Tiger in face-up attack mode, and use its effect to add another from my deck," Charlotte continued, gesturing at the feline of light prowling around. Only 1200/300--its own effect crippled its attack power unless there were multiple. Pack tactics? Kind of odd for tigers...

"Now: Galaxy-Eyes. Sabre Tiger, attack!" the gang-leader declared, hopping off her seat, pointing at the target, and grinning as the attack... well, being headbutted by a tiger probably wasn't the worst, but the dragon's blast was nasty.
LP: 6900
Monsters: Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon, Photon Saber TIger
S/T: Nada
Hand: 2
The hand grasping Shana's had a painfully strong grip, but she could be relieved that the shake was only brief, before Charlotte stepped back and checked that this disk was working, "How about we make a show of it? This lot are all plain boring."

By which she meant full holographic glory. Maybe the audience would be more entertained, and she certainly had the most stylish looking dragons in existence on her person right now.

With who got to play first summarily decided, Charlotte picked a nearby seat--this place was hardly packed to the rafters day one--and settled in comfortably. Then she actually started to play, familiar wall of cards appearing. A few people in the crowd nearby took note, but this was nothing truly spectacular... yet.

"I play Photon Sanctuary," the redhead stated, seeming kind of bored with the affair, but grinning as the blue, wispy... things took position, "And then sacrifice them to special summon Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon."

And now the watching crowd was beginning to note the duel in their midst, if only because the sudden, dramatic appearance of a star dragon was kind of hard to miss, even when it slowly gathered out of light itself. A hologram both figuratively and literally made of light, how apt.

"Not quite done, though: I set a card in face-down defence mode, and another spell and trap card. Now I'm done."
"Yeah; I'm in the last match in the tournament," Charlotte replied, scooping up the playing cards and carefully putting them in a pocket. Judging by the slightly put-out expression on her opponent's face, she'd won whatever game they were playing, "Why? Want to have a go? These matches are dull."

Right on cue, she'd produced a deck from another pocket and was cheerfully shuffling it with well-practised ease, ignoring Puddingcess as she attempted to grab the flame and mash it into the ground. No point trying to spoil a child's fun, really.

"Or if you don't want to duel me, my friends here will be more than happy to oblige," the redhead continued, pausing for a second before emphasising, "right?"

There was a chorus of nods.
