FUKUOKA-SHI
05:32 PM

The sun was setting, dying the clouds with a reddish tint as evening befell on the city. The crowd was slowly rolling out: students scrambling out of the school gate as the last bell echoed hollowly down the emptied corridors; the footsteps of salarymen and OLs roared down the stairs and escalators, dashing to catch the train; townspeople flooding the malls and shopping districts for dinner, watching the sky that faded into darkness. Neon lights and streetlamps flicked to life, raising the curtains to the nightscape of this sleepless place in the Kyushu area of Japan.

Hidden in the shadow on the roof high up in a certain building, the silhouette of a petite female lay silent and still as she rested her head against a sniper rifle. No.49 Nagisa peered through the scope lens of her gun, making a beeline for a particular person among the mess of strangers below.

Him.

Her unblinking eyes followed the head of her target, at the light brown hair of a bespectacled young man who appeared to be on his way home from a workout: she could barely make out the tiny beads of sweat that lined his sideburn down to the jawline, a stray towel bit poking out from his bag. A blast of cold wind slapped against her cheeks, but it wasn't enough to douse the rising heat welling up from somewhere deep inside her tiny frame. She was vaguely aware of the sudden adrenaline rush that was pumping into her legs as she leaped down the building, zipping through the throng of passers-by, her speed too fast for any of them to catch a glimpse of the dangerous weapon she was carrying on her back.

In a matter of seconds, she had arrived at the spot her seemingly detached body willed her to go to - right in the path of the person she saw through the lens. She shifted her rifle absentmindedly and brisk-walked towards him, her emotionless gaze still locked on his face. With the barrel of her gun positioned beneath the chin of her target, she finally spoke in a quiet, monotonous voice, "...Are you my Ashikabi?"

Mahou Taisen: Magic Warfare || Stern, tsukune

Yep, we can go with FF black mage-type of magic system.

It's a good idea to tie the element to each 'sin'; thought I should elaborate that for simplicity sake I'm also debating if for this we'll focus only on the sin of wrath, which for this case is the 'consequence of the cause'.

In the Greek view on the seven sins, they believed that pride is the root of all sins. My interpretation is that:
Pride, a sin that stems from self-importance, would expand to
Envy, unwanted obsession over things one does not possesses, to
Greed, of materialistic obsession, which escalates to
Lust, of emotional obsession, to
Gluttony, obsession to gain more than what one needs of anything, to
Sloth, depressive state when none of the above is enough to satisfy one's needs,
And lastly, wrath, hatred born from the depths of dissatisfaction and despair.

Not sure if I'm making much sense though - still not quite recovered from my fever.

'Riamancy' is a good name! Will include that in the lore.

Why do cities, particularly NYC and California based cities (and cities based off of those), appeal to roleplayers so much?

I've lived around LA, lived in Tokyo, spent a lot of time in NYC, visited Rome, Paris, Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney, etc, etc, etc.

@Ruby

Oh, so you've visited HK and SG? And even lived in Tokyo?

For me, I've been to some Southern cities of China, HK, Macau, and most of Japan. I haven't been to any European or the more west side of the globe, but I have a relative who lives in Las Vegas - sometimes when I need clarification on how LV really looks like, I'll get her to send me pictures. :P

Personally I'm more familiar with eastern geography than the west, so most of my works tend to set in Asian countries rather than places in America or Europe. Occasionally I would use Australia or New Zealand (which are the top two countries I plan to travel to on my list).

StarRiders: Hoshizora no Riders [Gowi, Tsukune]

S O R A | C E R A

Sora had a fleeting sensation of falling down - some sort of dark pit? He thought - before his body slammed down on something hard and flat, the shock from the impact spread across his muscles to the bones in an instant. His eyes snapped open at the agony. "Wha---?" he coughed, his sight slowly coming to a focus - at the whitewashed ceiling. It was then he realized he had fallen off his own seat.

He let out a tired sigh - it had been a week since Cera (he couldn't remember her full name; it was too long and complicated) invaded his dream, and now this elfish alien girl from nowhere (a Levi-something planet, he mused) had taken the liberty to reside within him (his mind or soul, he had no idea). She had assured him that she didn't have the power to take over his body - which was a great relief to the boy - but he wished that his brain would stop replaying the same dream he had when he first met her every time he was going to sleep. He yawned.

"Sora-san!" The frantic voice of his homeroom teacher, Maki Hoshino, became sharper to his ears with each syllable; he coughed - for the second time - when something soft and huge was shoved right before his face. "Are you alright?"

A muffled sound came out from the chest cushion. "Uh, sensei? I...I can't breathe."

"Oh, I'm so sorry!" As the shadow of Maki's voluptuous figure left his line of view, he sat up, wobbling to his feet; he was immediately greeted by the irritated stares from his classmates. He grinned sheepishly, but let the smile drop when it dawned upon him that the reason for their silent hostility appeared to be more than just him disrupting the lesson.

"Are you sure you're okay? Do you need to go to the infirmary to rest for a while?"

He returned his attention to the teacher. "I'm fine." He rubbed the back of his head gingerly. "But I guess I'll do that, visit the infirmary." As he passed by the table of Sotoko Yanagi, one of the two transfer students in his class, the familiar voice spoke suddenly, "By the way, the nasty twerp who kicked you off the chair is that evil-eyed lady who sits behind you."

That made him stopped in his tracks. "What, she did?" he said aloud, looking at Sotoko with disbelief. "Why would she do that?"

"Why don't you ask her instead? And it seems like she hates you. A lot."

"I don't understand." He raised his eyebrows at the scowling face of the titian-haired girl. "Do you hate me that much?"

Skype is upset. It's for free and you're still not satisfied.

@MrLongSchlong

I'm upset that Skype is upset - and it's upsetting my computer by constantly kicking me out of public wifi to offer me Skype wifi service (which, by the way, is NOT free).

That aside.

Still drunk. Not high, not on alcohol, just couple of screws loose.

>.> One up. Sorry, going slower than I expected. Got more work than I thought I did so might not get the other two up tonight. Also, no idea what's wrong with the hider thing on here. I can't hide the profile like I had the other ones.

I also don't know why my text appears green now. >.>

@RyuHll

I finally solved the mystery of the green text!

Because you put ">>" before your text. Heh.

...Look, okay, I'm fine if you want to use coloured text for your character's dialogue. It's not something I personally do but hey, not going to complain if other people do it. But could you please not use such an eye-searing shade? I honestly can't read your posts at all without getting a migraine.
