I've already posted this on the Help With Life Thread, but it can go here too.

Verbal defense is like martial arts; you must know what move to use, and you must use it at the right time, or you'll be open to the attacker.

There are three different reactions to verbal attacks. Here's an example of each of them being used:

Attacker - "Everyone knows you have a 'problem'. You're just gay (usually meaning "stupid" these days) and we feel sorry for you."

The "Blamer" response - Making fists and making angry body movements while saying, "Shut up! You're the gay one!"

The "Leveler" response - Gestures may vary. Saying, "I might be. But so what? There are other people who you can call gay."

The "Computer" response - No gestures at all and keeping a straight face, "How kind of everyone to be concerned. I'm touched" Then sit back (if you're on a chair, of-course) and look at the attacker in the eyes, looking interested.

Which one of those sounds more clever to you? Computer mode is the best way to avoid bullies and other verbal attackers and it's the best way to avoid physical attacks. When someone starts verbally attacking you and you go into blamer mode and start getting all angry and blaming other people, the conversation will get worse. The attacker is normally someone who wants attention (even though they won't admit it), and responding in blamer mode gives them what they want - attention. A conversation that won't get anywhere is two arguing blamers. Leveler mode is slightly safer and can get you out of things quickly, usually. And it'll either be the safest, or the most dangerous way out of arguments depending on the argument itself. Now computer mode is the key out of things. You know that computers don't have feelings and never use "I". They also can't use gestures. When you respond in computer mode, never try to use "I" or involve yourself in your come-backs unless you're saying something like "Actually, I would imagine the situation to be more...". In computer mode, the attacker will not get your attention and think in his/her mind that you're not the type of person that will work for him/her and he/she will most likely walk off dissapointed.

When someone starts to attack you verbally, go straight into computer mode and maintain it until the attacker gives up. You must never change your gesture and keep completely calm and relaxed (like a Nobody) throughout the whole conversation. After responding in computer mode, sit back and wait. Usually, the attacker trying to fight back with insults then would make him or her look foolish. Never show weakness.

Here are the steps:

1.) Identify the attacker and know his or her style of attacking
2.) Identify the subject of the attack being used
3.) Go into computer mode
4.) Maintain computer mode

Here are 10 examples (from easiest to counter, to hardest to counter)

1.) "You're not the only person with power you know!"

Computer - "You're absolutely right."

2.) "If you really like me, you would've gotten me a calculator for the test."

Blamer - "You don't love me."

Computer - "Why?" or "When did you get the impression (try to avoid using the word "ever") that I didn't care about your progress?" or "You should study the basics before getting into the big stuff. Let's get started..."

If you say the third line, the person would probably then say, "Oh, never mind!" then walk off.

3.) "Even girls should be able to change tires, you know!"

Blamer - "You are a girl."

Computer - "The idea that men are more compatible than women is a fascinating one."

4.) "You're having affairs behind my back, aren't you?!"

Computer - "You know, it's amazing that so many girls these days are having feelings that their boyfriends are having affairs behind their backs."

The person would then get surprised and probably be ashamed and will try to change the subject.

5.) "You should care about us! We're much tougher than you and we deserve your respect! Everyone knows that!"

Blamer - "You don't care about me."

Computer - "It's not every day that I meet a person knowledgable to know that fact." or "That would include me, then. I know that."

6.) "You should care about other people. You're an awful person not to."

Blamer - "You don't care about other people."

Computer - "Which anti-poverty center would you be talking about? The Southeast Welfare Community, or Nurturecare?"

7.) "You have no friends and you're weird and you suck everyone knows that."

Blamer - "Don't you care about my feelings?! I should have much more than you 'cause I'm a better person inside!"

Computer - "I'd like to thank everyone who was concerned. I'm touched" or "It's very gratifying to hear that" or "What a list! It's nice to have a great messenger-boy who has a great memory and would give up his time as a popular person to tell me these understanding facts! Like to buy a comma?"

8.) "Man, you are so bad at that performance."

Blamer - "I bet you couldnt've done better." or "Let's see you do better."

Computer - "It's 'you were so bad at that performance' please learn to get you're words right."

9.) "Your problems are, of-course, apparant. You've gotta get a life and stop being such a loser."

Computer - "I understand you're concerns completely and you've got a great life ahead of you if you continue to be so understanding to others"

"I don't think you understand what I'm trying to say to you."

Computer - "That is, of-course, possible."

10.) "You ate without me?! How could you?! You know how angry I am now?!

Computer - "I wouldnt've eaten with you if I knew you were angry."

And there you have it. This is my greatest advice to you if you ever get verbally attacked !

Did I learn some Japanese? Oh, definetely:

Whora-Whora:laughing-smiley-004!: That's right!
Konobo-Konshino: Castle Oblivion
Demo: But
Yaneo: Darkness
Ana tano kokoro nema? Yi mada yameena?: Would you like to see him? Or should I say, can you face him?
Moto ne moto se: Turn him back
Como cado: A card

Ah, hello, hello. Nice to have someone who seems like quite a fun person among us. Well, like everyone else, try to restrain yourself from eating your textbooks, take a look around the site, and meet new people. :)

Well, hopefully you can change your Keyblade to different devices like Terra in the KH2:FM battle.

What if there's a concealed mp3 player in Ansem The Wise's bandages? He could've be listening to "Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word" after seeing Riku in his new state for all we know.

Axel could've been listening to "You'll Be In My Heart" when Roxas dissapeared.

Master X: "Pump It". 'Nuf said.

KH2:FM:
Terra: "Why aren't you the one that I have chosen?"

KH:Birth By Sleep:
Terra: "Were you the one who, at one time, saved me?"
Ven (Slightly laughing): "Well, you are my friend."
Terra: "Thank you, Ven."

Harry Potter 5:
Hermione: "Don't you ever stop eating?"
Ron (With mouth full): "I'm hungry."

Click:
Michael: "I meant no disrespect, Prince Hubbida Hubbida."
Ammer: "Hubba Bubba."
Prince Habeeboo: "Habeeboo! Ha-bee-boo! Hubba Bubba is chewing gum! Prince Habeeboo is not chewing gum!"

Here's my list of what the Keyblades should be called (They suck):

Terra: Terabyte (Clever, eh? Named after the "mirror" things that keep surrounding it 'cause it looks like data.)

Aqua: Aquamaria (Well, what else can I call it?)

Ven: Vent Shaft (Lame, but makes sense - He holds the Keyblade backwards, so the blade kinda goes up his arm shaft.)

Master X: Master Key ('Nuf said.)

Apprentice (Dark Soldier): Apprentice Blade (What else? Motorcycle Key? :xp:)

Christopher Lee already voiced Ansem The Wise.

I think good controls would be:

Up/Down: Change card/command
Left/Right: Change command menu
Left Analog Stick: Move
Right Analog Stick: Camera
L: Change Keyblade device
R: Lock On
Square: Dodge move
Circle: Jump
X: Attack/Select command
Triangle: Reaction Command/Use selected Keyblade device

Always thought that it was just because Roxas took out two in that fight, but this definetely makes more sense.

It's pronounced "Three-Five-Eight Days Over Two". A few people have said this already but: There are 365 days in a year. KH2 starts a year after CoM. So Roxas should've been in the Organization for ALMOST a year but stayed in the virtual Twilight Town for 7 days so 365-7=358. As for the "2", a friend pointed out that it might mean 358 days shared between 2 people - Sora and Roxas. That's what I think.

So, besides all the Master X pics... :poketoungeb:

1. Voices :)
2. Ramming people with a Keyblade-Motorcycle (hopefully) :sneaky:
3. New worlds :bounce:
4. Look at my sig :p
5. A lot of mysteries solved :satisfied:
6. No more getting bored during long road trips :woohoo:

Birth By Sleep was supposed to trigger the start of Kingdom Hearts, so my theory is that based on my theory on "Endless" - the soul creatures, when Master X (as I like to call him) creates Kingdom Hearts in the secret ending, Heartless and Nobodies were created in the process meaning that Endless would no longer exist as a Nobody would need a soul to "exist".

Hope that wasn't too confusing. :o

Well, besides Coded being on the mobile phone, Nomura said that the three new games were gonna be connected to a future game, so if the story's good, I guess it'll be worth getting Coded.

Roxas laughs a bit in Twilight Town.
Larxene laughs a lot.
Marluxia's evil laugh sounds cool.
Luxord chortles in Port Royal.
Demyx, well, you know.
Axel HA HA's in the boss fight.
Zexion's laughs quite a few times, surprisingly. He does an evil laugh in the FM battle, but I just lose it when he does that shrilly high laugh.
Lexaeus laughs when he does that air attack.
Vexen's laugh is much more "normal" in Re:CoM than in the regular CoM if you know what I mean.
Xaldin's laugh is the second loudest in Hollow Bastion: First Visit, I think.
Xigbar laughs when he blocks the way in Hollow Bastion.
Xemnas does an evil laugh in TWTNW.

So I'm guessing Saïx's laugh is similiar to Marluxia's or Xaldin's.

Possible elements: Magnet, Darkness, Zero-Point Energy, Poison, War, Death
Possible weapons: Staff, Whip, Scepter, Bow And Arrows, Axe, Trident

Exactly. Since Nobodies weren't created yet, the souls won't have any body to stay in when a person yields to the darkness in their heart. So the souls are their own type of creature then. A lot of people say that the new enemy's name is the Endless, which makes sense because souls are "endless" in a way. Nobodies were created after this so souls can no longer "live" on their own. I mean, if Endless still existed after Birth By Sleep, Sora would've discovered them by now (it's been almost two years since Sora started his quest). But of-course things may change in KHIII...

That desert/canyon place you keep seeing them in.
