@HaleyTheRandom Oh, that's fair. I guess you'll forever stalk then until you are able to be less random. XD

@HaleyTheRandom You should graduate from stalker to participant. :P

Also, yes, those are good suggestions, though the Columbian route might take away from the Castillos, so I don't know about that. I will, however, consider the suggestion that was made in the discord about going a potential asian route. Unsure about what kind of Asian route, though.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

---

_{@Hero @Prosaic @Ejected @spooner @SpicyMeatball @TayTay}

So, I have been thinking this over for a while now and I will be making some rather serious changes. My passion for this RP has never been higher. Not only am I hyped for the new posts that were made within the last couple of weeks, I myself have a new fire lit under me for this. Because of this, I will, from here on out, enforcing a remodeling to the posting rule. Instead of one post-per-week - which I haven't been enforcing - it will be following @Dirty Pretty Lies's model of one post every 10 days. This comes after deciding that I want this RP to move forward. If you feel you cannot make that one requirement I ask, then please let me know.

Additionally, I will also be increasing the total amount of characters that a single player can have from 2 to 4. This comes after I will be adding two new families that I hope will give people more opportunities to create new and exciting characters. These two new families will make their debut very soon, but I would like to ask you, my players, what ethnicity you want to see represented?

Note these families will be introduced in the next time skip, so do keep that in mind when answering.

And as always, I love you all. <3

As soon as the heartless assumed their battle formations, they came at Kai one by one. Though they had the numbers, they were sloppy in their offense. Only after the third one did the teen deduce they had rather linear thinking when it came to fighting. Their only objective was attacking individually, not as a team. Had they put their numbers together, Kai knew they would have him cornered, especially since the bigger snowman was right behind them. The strange thing was that it just stood there

As the boy was trying to figure out why it didn’t attack Kai, he would soon spot the heartless coming for him. Instinctually, he blocked their attacks and swung his body, slicing the outer blade edge of his Keyblade across their tiny bodies. As soon as he did, they were gone from existence. There was no time for Kai to rest because the events in front of him demanded he stay focused. Heartless and the surprising swing from the giant snowman at Cielle and Queen Elsa, who had exchanged some words with Anna. Kai would’ve interjected, but he was too busy trying to not die from the heartless.

One by one, the heartless were vanquished, but the one thing that remained a constant was the overwhelming force that the snowman had in its arms. Just one swing and it was enough to produce a gust of wind that sent whoever was in its path far from it - including Cielle. Out of desperation, Kai took the charge, his keyblade glowing with a radiant, green light. All around his body formed the same spell from before, the wind spell, Aero. He was able to strike the snowman a deadly blow as it tumbled back, falling on its snowy behind.

And at that moment, Kai noticed the lack of a certain someone. “Where’s Cielle!?”

Kai’s eyes scanned the area. He saw the silver blade of her keyblade stabbed into the cliff with the fragile, slender hand holding onto it for dear life. He knew she was over there. He quickly took advantage of the temporary situation he had created by rushing over to Cielle, reaching out for her to take his hand. Unfortunately, however, Kai did not foresee a very important issue. The Snowman was a lot larger than he was and thus, a direct hit by little Kai wasn’t enough to keep it down, but as Kai would soon find out, that wasn’t the most surprising thing.

“You leave. Mistress stay.”

It can talk!” Kai and Anna seemed to say in unison.

The snowman turned around, giving what seemed like a cheeky grin as its long arm reached over to Anna and it also raised up Cielle and Kai from where they stood, carrying them over to Elsa. “I throw off cliff?”

Kai looked up at the Abominable Snowman, then to Elsa. “Uh, your..uhh, queenliness..”

“Just Elsa.”

“Right, Queenliness Elsa, I know you feel like you need to run, but Anna risked everything to come out here. Knowing how dangerous it would be, she came out here regardless of all that. I think that should earn her some time to understand why you felt the need to run.”

“I throw now?”

Contrary to what the popular opinion about Kavi Salvador was, he wasn’t the whole round moon of an asshole - just some people rubbed him the wrong way. The thing about Kavi was that he often felt like people judged him simply because he enjoyed tormenting the nerds every now and then - well, one nerd named Elijah Abrams. He didn’t like him that much and Elijah didn’t like Kavi, so it worked out well for the both of them. Kavi could torment him and Elijah simply waited until it was over and went about his day. But when it came to others like Jordan Henderson, the teen felt like there was potential not to be a total ass - the kind of guy that Stella often saw in him. Why that one felt the need to see the kind of guy he used to be has always been a mystery to Kavi.

So that’s why he didn’t jump down this British guy’s throat as soon as he talked, despite how much of Kavi’s being was telling him to make some kind of stereotypical quip about the stereotypical English jock. Or how stupid his accent was, but Kavi wasn’t going to do that because of one reason: he’d rather not get turned down by Ariel, not when she was looking oh-so-good. The additional fact was he and Ariel -at least from where Kavi stood - were friendly. So why ruin that by being a dick to a guy who he didn’t have any real problems with.

He didn’t bother speaking to Jordan, though he did return his handshake, arrogantly smirking at him. It was that type of smirk that spoke volumes without Kavi having to actually utter a single word. It basically said ‘I’m better than you and you know it’.

After that moment faded, he went back to ignoring the polite turd. “Well, ya know, I figured El Asso deserved only the best that Kavi Salvador had to offer,” he bragged, smiling. He leaned in such a way that sort of shoved Jordan away so that Kavi had Ariel to himself - well, at least was within her immediate radius. “Seeing as how this is a party and all,” Kavi smiled at Ariel while also giving Jordan a superior gaze before returning to Ariel’s shorter form, “let's go dance.” Kavi didn’t really wait for a response. Being the kind of dominant teen he was, he led Ariel away by taking her hand.

_{L O C A T I O N / / Diablo's Party
I N T E R A C T I N G W I T H / / Stella’s worst nightmare, probably.}

”Of all people to throw a party and of all people to send out that massive feeler for their party, why in the holy father’s name did it have to be him?”

Over and over again, Stella Lambert had been pacing back and forth in her room, going back to the thought of forgetting that party and maybe taking a drive to Miami and just forget about everything that god-forsaken asshole, Santiago Fernandez did to her. Just the very thought of that tall, smoking-hot, white-as-all-hell latino, God among men, douche made her blood boil. And yet, at the same time, the way he made her feel for the first nights she had given him her time of day, she remembered how utterly charming and soothing he was not only to the eyes but in how she was treated by him. Every moment of the one date they had was perfect. He was so romantic and so thoughtful.

But, of course, as with all things, there was a downside. How could she forgive this man who she thought actually cared for her not think of her feelings when she saw him with that April girl? It riles her up like nobody else in the world could. Someone so infuriating that she hated with all that she was and, yet when she was in his presence, she found herself weak around him. It was like this man had a hold over her that she didn’t know how to control. She was just that dumb girl who would fall into a habit of being drawn to Santiago whether or not she wanted to.

“Just keep it calm, Stella. Remember! You are over him now. He is with April - or at least that’s what it appeared to be like.”

Stella was having what some would call ‘A Stella Moment’. She often freaked out about a lot of things. Sometimes they were justified, while at other times, it seemed she’d make a big deal about nothing. To her, anytime that Diablo was involved, it was always justified. She never understood how such a seemingly good guy could cause such terror within Stella’s fragile heart. Just the thought of him made her feel weak and hate herself just as much. Every time she was near him, equally, her blood boiled and heart fluttered. No amount of - well anything - she did would ever compare to the complicated relationship she had with the guy. Even after all that he did to her, she couldn’t get him out of her head.

Continuously going back and forth, Stella never realized that she was out of her home. Both of her parents were working tonight. They left a note for her that told her they wouldn't be back until at least sunrise, so she knew that she would be home alone. Why stay there when she could just go to a party.

Yeah, some self-control you have, Stella…

A few curses, miles, and several going back and forth moments later, Stella Lambert was outside of Diablo’s house. She saw people were going through the house. A lot of people were actually present it was kind of overwhelming, yet comforting, for Stella. If this was going to be one of those parties that favored quantity over quality, perhaps she wouldn’t see Diablo. And if that was the case, she suddenly felt a hell of a lot better about letting herself enjoy a party.

Game face = On!

Stella brought her tiny frame through the front door, slipping past some bigger guests who showed up and she was in. Quickly, she assumed her natural state of following the leader, which brought her straight outside. “WHOA!” Stella said n a not-so-quiet voice, eyes coming her way. Like the gal she was, Stella smiled, letting them see a cheery white girl. Adding to that specific visage, dressed in a pink shirt that came to a stop mid-stomach and revealed a lot of arm skin, as well as a pair of some too-short-for-her-own-good lower body wear, Stella was ready to P-A-R-T-Y!

And the first thing she did was take her assumed position on top of the grotto, shouting and she took a dive into the pool, which was a glaring success!

I still have my saved file from when I originally played it in the 2000s on my PS2. I might buy the second one again to relive that shit.
