For the rest of the movie, Tifa didn't break any eye contact, except once to see what was Cloud doing, and found him asleep. Rolling her eyes after that, the rest of her mind was filled with the intensity it was showing. As it ended, there was the explosion of the war between the monster and the army, then the rubble in Central Park, and the camera ends after a grubbled share of feelings. It was that where the camera cut, and the ending credits appeared, indicating that it was finally over. It took awhile for the rest of the people to get up, but there wasn't alot of speaking, if at all, and some began to head out. Gripping monster film, that was for sure, and it was deifnitely worth the munny. Letting out a breath, she looked over at Cloud, and smacked his shoulder to wake him up, too bad for him he missed it for thinking it was worth sleeping over. "Cloud, wake up...it finished..."
OOC: Wow, I just got back with my friend from the movies, and wow, Cloverfield is...wow. That's all I can say xP. It kept you in suspense and at the edge of your seat, kind of. Eh, I recommend it. Is not scary it just...hits you, if that makes sense. Everybody in the theatre was so quiet, even at the end, they were just quiet...and filed out the exit. The first 15 minutes is whatever (and the freaking camera was nauseating with all the moving, though funnily, it was more still after they were escaping -_-), cause is the party, but then after they feel the "earthquake" *cough*, it takes off from there. I've been outside the whole day, and I only managed to get on in my best friend's Sidekick before (not right now, I'm home). Couldn't do crap. I won't spoil the movie here, so I'll...write Tifa's feelings on it only ^^;, but I had her right on track, at least on female perspective. After a while, where that one girl gets hurt, Tifa was already too into the movie to even eat more M&Ms. Now they were around the subway tunnel, and she was simply watching to see what might pop up next. She didn't bother to think what Cloud meant about trying whatever later, she just wanted to see what would happen next, do they all die?....and then there was Rob and Beth...the official love story, other than Lily and Jason...but that didn't last long. Leaning on her back to the seat, the tension kept her eyes on the film, and she wondered briefly if Cloud was watching too.
OOC: *sigh* Here's hoping for Nymph to make a appearance today. And yay! Finally some Rival Organization action!! xD The only one in the group who's been active is Max, with his many Moogle minions and evil genius schemes. And ChocoKitten's character, forgot the name...
"Hmm?" Tifa questioned, Cloud breaking her distraction from the movie, too enthralled in it, looking at him sideways. What was it that he asked? Is it almost done? Going with that, Tifa waved her hand in a "almost" gesture, going to eat another M&M after. Speaking, but gazing at the screen, Tifa explained, "We're in the part where Beth is trapped in ther apartment after the monster attacks, and the main characters are going to save her and crap now." She said this quickly, also questioning without paying attention to him still, "I thought you were falling asleep?" "Will do. And wind might blow the flames away, but it can't put it out when is strong, can they?" was all Axel replied on the matter, putting his own seatbelt, letting out a shaky breath. Considering the tragic ending in his past, while some people might become too distraught from driving a car after that such a life changing accident, for some reason, he did the exact opposite. He was weird like that, and he didn't know why, but it somehow made him feel...better, especially when he was breaking the speed limits, to which he sometimes shed tears out of nowhere. Maybe it was a good idea that he didn't have to go as fast as he had anticipated with Rei watching... Closing his eyes, shaking his head a little to get rid of the thoughts that he had locked away long ago, he placed the truck on Reverse and looked back through the rear view, turning his head, and began to back away, the music blaring in his ears. Smiling at Rei's enthusiasm, the truck swerved backwards in a smooth slide as it was fully out in a second, and switching to Drive, he leaned back and turned the steering wheel with one hand casually, pressing the gas pedal, and speeded off.
"Have you ever heard of the saying, 'patience is a virtue', dear Spicy?" Axel drawled out dryly with his English accent, giving a flamboyant expression, before getting up to the side of the truck, and jabbing the key in the appropiate car lock. Once it opened, the first thing he did was unsecure the inside locks so Rei could get in, and in a swoop, hopped unto the driver seat, shutting the door. He was expecting a car, and going by what Rei said, he couldn't do much as he had wanted to, unless they were planning to be towed. Seeing the girl settling, he went to start the engine in one swift movement of the wrist, letting it heat up a bit as he eyed his companion, "Head to head? You're talking to a five time winning drag racer here. I'll leave you in the dust, literally." He gave a smug smile, as he studied her casually, before wagging a stern finger at her, saying seriously, though his eyes glittering playfully, "Remember to wear your seatbelt. Safety first, young lady. We don't want to have a accident and you go flying off the front window like a rag doll to your bloody death. The poor, poor streets..."
"They are powerful, but I'll just say the car will live. I did use to drag race, after all, is not like I don't know the limits," Axel piped nonchalantly, taking the key out of her hand in one swipe and smiling. Just smiling. There was also the fact that he didn't mention that both his driver and motorcycle licenses were suspended, but who needs to know that? It wasn't like police scouted the streets a lot, and they looked almost empty anyway. Walking through the parking lot, following Rei as he didn't know where the car was, he took a glance at her, "So where is it? Is a hunk of junk? No offense, by the way." Tifa raised a eyebrow, but that was a good enough enough as she eyed him. It looked like he was tired, and soon enough, she watched him as he closed his eyes, obviously, not wanting to see the movie. Not to bother him, Tifa went back to see the constant shaking of the camera, but it was looking extremely interesting, and they were already showing who was the couple of the story.
Tifa shrugged at that, huffing playfully, turning back to the movie along with her bag of chocolatey goodness. "Same thing. The point is, both ask if you'd like to share your thoughts." Staring back at him once more, as she was right next to him, she placed a arm on his shoulder. "You look like you were thinking something, and not paying attention to the movie. Tell?" Somehow, Tifa doubted he would. He was already keeping stuff from her, so she didn't really believe that he will say it openly. At least, this time, she was prepared, and it still wouldn't hurt asking.
It's Nature. Nature consist of both Life and Death (which explains the Death Count he does in his data battle of FM+), not to mention Nature also has plants and flowers attributed to it. In two official files (I think it was a game magazine or not, I can't remember), one said it was Flowers, at first, than the next one they placed it as Nature. Also, with the scythe and the black cloak with the hood, he represents and appears like the Grim Reaper...only in pink and with flesh. Nature makes more sense, in my opinion.
Considering that most straight guys here either don't care, are neutral, say that yaoi isn't in KH, or really show any interest, in my view, a heterosexual guy writing a yaoi fanfic is questionable to me for that reason, especially since being gay is a highly defensive topic for straight men in the community, internet or otherwise (it would be interesting to see what he said on the matter as well). Same for women, though is less. There's no other relevance to this point in the discussion, the end. Nice use of a big word there. Interpret that however you feel like. Anyway, the reason I do generalize that most fanfiction come from fangirls, or simply, girls, in general, is because that is what I see. I've still yet to see a profile where it isn't a female writer, and even if they are men or gay men in the fandom that write yaoi (perhaps there is more on LiveJournal), is rare compared to the girls actually writing. The majority and masses are girls, that's the point trying to be made, and that's very visible the way I look at it. Is not like I was trying to say I conclude every fangirl into a specific way of acting, I know a few mature ones out there that I respect that can argue their point. Is only that I can't take interpreted yaoi pairings seriously. That is all. Since you know is a exaggeration, not to mention you keep saying you think is bull, I'm surprise how you got so defensive about it in the first place. I've only posted to give a specific reason why some het readers and watchers sometimes complain, and about how it cannot be easily "Ignored". It was never even suppose to be debated, I actually went "WTF" seeing as the thread was going to end soon. And yes, you can put Sora and Kairi on the search bar, but it still doesn't give enough. To read a fanfiction, let's say among the 44 Sokai fics some are either written in a n00b way of grammar, some don't make sense, some don't really have a plot, some are repetitive, and in the end, we do have to skip some over, and that lessens the number. Faster than you can say, we have to wait for a new fanfic to appear after we've read what we could. In one page there is either two or three het pairings fiction, and the rest are yaoi, likewise for the other pages, and that's really fact. Het fics are there, more so now than before after AkuRoku came out, thankfully, but in the fandom, is still in the minority in comparison, and I don't see any exact equality. I've also noticed that the most creative writers and stories that could be made are also written for yaoi, and that saddens me a lot since most of the better ones with the actual writing skills and imaginative plot in mind are in that part of the pairing scale. That's truth. Is probably easier for those who don't always go to read fanfics and don't always look for het pairings, but for some, is the way things are. And I've posted the point I wanted to make on the fact why some het supporters can get a bit down on this, that was my job, it doesn't need to be debated, and I don't need to get it across or convince it to you. I'm done. Agree to disagree then. Or else the thread will never die. Being how your point seemed to be connected to specific points above, I don't see how is it irrelevant. I also like how you generalize the way we think in the way of "the hurdle of icky yaoi fanfics". As for FF.Net not being the only place, so far I've known of LiveJournal and MediaMinor.Org, some in DeviantArt, which in my opinion, is a bit more major on yaoi then Fanfiction.Net.
OOC: Aesthetic In other words, a mature way of saying sexy, hot, good looking, gorgeous, etc. :D. Cloud also has aesthetic value :3. And the lingerie is funny, considering that Tifa didn't have one and so had to choose the gown that "day" xDD. As they were heading farther into the movie, where the guy is at the roof or balcony and then notices and hear something behind him like a crash, where they start shouting, Tifa took another M&M slowly, half hour passing before she ate another one. This is where the camera began shaking a little, though the first fifteen minutes are boring, now it was starting to get good. Shifting her eyes to Cloud for a little while, wondering if he was even watching, she offered out the bag of M&Ms to him cutely, "M&M?" Tilting her head to the side, she also asked, "Penny for your thoughts or no?"
Tifa concentrated as she kept eating her pieces of chocolate one by one, bordering awhile before eating the other. She was full, and she was merely placing them in her mouth for the taste, so she didn't have to rush. She watched idly at the opening credits, with some "Property of the U.S Government" watermarked screen saying that viewers are watching...something of a "Digital SD Memory Card" of a video pertaining to...U.S Case Designate "Cloverfield", found in a area formerly known as Central Park... Popping another M&M in her mouth as it now truly began, she took a glance at Cloud to see what he was doing, only to find him deep in thought, but turned back to the movie to not miss anything.
OOC: We'll wing it ^^;. I think I got spoiled a bit. My new avatar is dedicated to Chula, who had shown me the word "aesthetic" and "Aesthetic Axel" xD. Is kind of funny, I never heard the word before, and after chula tells me what it is, I suddenly hear it everywhere o.O. "Suuure do, sexy," Tifa replied playfully, sticking her tongue, getting her sight out of the movie as it was simply the beginning credits. It was then she winced inwardly, knowing that would be more like something Axel would say in a joking manner, and she shuddered. Really rubbing off on her, wasn't he? Either way, it didn't bother her, as she went to open the bag of M&Ms and began to eat the little circular, colored covered chocolates, putting her attention back to the screen to see if Cloverfield was any good. Didn't matter. If she fel tlike it, she'll go to Cloud and they can make their own entertainment.
OOC: Well, Nymph responded to your Luxord: And I think 2Foxxie4U is going to be on quite a break, so for Vexen and the rest, I think they're at a bit of a stand still.
OOC: Yeah, that's pretty much it. Vexen told Xangel to clean her burns and stuff (not to mention, she's covered in soot), and then asked why Max was here. And wow, Nymph, don't stress yourself xP. If you can't make it in the forum today or tomorrow, then that's it, it's alright as long as you don't leave forever.
I never disagreed with the fact of canon, not canon, I even placed in my post that, yes, you can imagine things your own way, because Nomura did leave it open ended. I just said, that I don't take it seriously like some real yaoi couples, because sometimes, yeah, I've had experiences where fangirls do take it canonly, and is at times almost scary. I also never said that they don't exist, but just simply said that they are in the minority ;D (you can't expect me to not believe that a gay guy won't support or write about a yaoi pairing who plays KH, right?). The straight guy is questionable, but I'll make no other comment on it. I never disagreed with that either xP. I am aware that some don't take it seriously, but also that some do, and that's just my opinion on it (just the way I posted my opinion on how I interpret AkuRoku). That's why I said, again, I don't take it so much as fact, with how they pair them up because they're cute together or whatnot, and I can't never get myself to read it, or even watch (in fanart). Here are my quotes from the same post: There was no reason to write this, because I even told outwardly that I was taking it over the top, and I knew I was doing it on purpose, yet I was simply trying to get a point across hard, because is always the same answer, "Ignore it". I also never outright stated that there isn't Sokai fics or any het pairings out there for us to read (in my post, I even said they are growing), just that they are in the minority. Sure, you can get fanarts and fanfics when you type the search you want, but in the end, is never enough for the yaoi out there, and while yaoi fics grow and grow, it takes a while before a good het fic appear amongst it (and I don't mean a half-a**ed n00b het fic either, where you just want to click away and not bother). So no, what I didn't say was outright bull, period. I had some people agree with me on that account. You type in the character bar on FF.Net, "Sora" and "Kairi", and only 76 fics pop up (and trust me, those could be read pretty quick). Write "Sora" and "Riku", there's 144. And that's just Sora and Riku. I checked Roxas and Naminé compared to AkuRoku. They had 44 fics, while AkuRoku 108. Then of course, there's the Demyx and Zexion fics, the Saïx/Xemnas, etc. I took that to a more exaggerated level on explaining a bit of both sides, mostly mine.
Exactly. That's why I said before. No matter in what point you look at it, Marluxia's plan was doomed to fail no matter how successful he could be in the long run. It could be Riku teaming up with Mickey, Naminé, Sora in some way remembering Kairi, the Org., Larxene, who would've perhaps backstabbed him once they had power, etc. Anything could've gone wrong. I think basically, with Marluxia, he simply wanted power. Larxene probably was looking for that as well, maybe for respect. There's a chance that they didn't agree with how Xemnas was running things and decided to act on it, but that wasn't the expression I got when seeing their scenes. We can never know though, and I hope in 358/2 Days, Nomura would cover more on that and their personal reasons for deciding on betrayal.
Me and my friends use to do it, and everytime, I forgot that I can't eat meat, but I did so by accident. For some reason, I can never remember. It wasn't until recently that I swore I wouldn't eat, that I stayed away from anything that had to do with the word meat, chicken, pork, beef. And I made it. But you bet after that I went to restaurants and ate as much meat as possible.
Actually, their original selves aren't Heartless, really. Heartless are merely the ones who host the heart, the body and soul are the Nobody. There just the remains of their original selves separated, not that they are. While Roxas and Naminé are a special case, for the rest to be "whole" or return to their "real self", this has to happen, from Nomura himself: Whether some will return or make appearance, is yet to be known. However, we can be sure that Xehanort will be back (his Heartless was killed in KH1, and his Nobody was killed in KH2, put two and two together, epsecially since he's the main villain of the series), and Axel. Yes, everyone cheer -_-. Is been stated in the KH2 written novels by Naminé that Axel returned to his original self. Those two are the only ones that have a chance, and maybe (big maybe, by the way) the original six, though I think they will appear more in flashbacks, if you ask me. Goodness, I would die to see Larxene in her original self :3, as doubtful as it is.
Um. I thought that 358/2 Days has been stated as having the Wi-fi, hence, having Multi-player? Actually, it is. So what's this thread for?
While the fact that they are born with it when they turn into a Nobody is a accurate posibility, that's just it. A possible explanation. Even though I do agree with it. In truth, nothing's that's going to be said here is pure fact (so don't really take it or write it as one, for all we know, it could be a completely different thing) unless Nomura gets his arse off, and explain some things that have yet to be known about the creatures known as Nobodies, and the Org. If you notice, personality match their abilties and weapons, as well as their appearance because is...character designing. I doubt anyone in real life would take after their elements and utensils so much as the Org. has. Axel resembles a lot of fire, his red fire like hair and is spiky wild, his tattoos, his fox like features. Larxene has bangs that look like antennae (get it? xD) and she has yellow hair and blue eyes (which are kind of the colors lightning is attributed with), Saïx has royal blue hair, with gold eyes, and a scar on his face, that reminds me of a moon and werewolf made character, not to mention when he goes Berserk. Since is a game though, we can ignore it xP.
