Seeing actual bushfire footage looks straight out of Hell... It moves so quickly and so powerfully, literally the trees just ignite. You firefighters are absolute legends, but please, don't die.

and me.
Welcome to my little personal den of Hell! Sorry, sorry, I meant my personal profile. Same thing, right?
I'm a roleplayer, same as any around here. I've been doing it for about five years now, coming up to six in September. Its been quite the time, thinking back. I started out fresh as can be, understanding the basics of writing but never quite knowing how to become better, or become as great as those around me. In the end, I did the only thing I really knew at the time:
Write as much garbage as possible and hope for the best!
As you can see, that particular tactic fucking failed. Jokes aside, I like to think I've developed a lot over the years, both as a writer and as a person. However, absolutely nothing can dissuade my weeaboo ways and supporting my OTP with all that I can freaking muster! If you haven't already guessed, said OTP is Chrom x Robin (Chrobin) from Fire Emblem: Awakening. Highly recommend the game, there's a reason (other than nintendo's cheapskate attitude) that it hasn't dropped in price, it's honestly the best place to start off in the series. And hey, maybe you'll end up addicted like me and want to buy every game on the 3DS like a fucking loony?
Speaking of loonies, the Fire Emblem Chrobin Comic Dub Project has recently finished, so for those of you who also appreciate the best ship in existence, I highly recommend it. Hell, even if you're not interested in that, I do highly recommend watching it for those into fantasy love stories. The quality improves drastically with each episode, so trust me when I say by the end of it you should be thoroughly impressed. It has helped motivate me in ways I can hardly describe with words, and so I thought the least I could do was put this out there. Maybe it's not for everyone, but I know it was the perfect thing for me.
"Do you think you can tip any of the scales in here?" "Chrom, for the love of Naga, I'm thinking..."
"So I heard."
"There are better places to take a nap than on the ground, you know."
There is a universe. No-one knows it's name, where gravity wasn't strong enough to bind matter together and no stars formed. And because no stars formed, no stars exploded. And because no stars exploded, no planets came about. And because no planets came about, there was no life.
There's another universe, no one knows it's name, where gravity was strong enough and did light the stars and planets came about and boy, they were gorgeous, planets in perpetual winter, planets in perpetual summer, planets that could rival the Garden of Eden and no bloody snakes! And on one of them, eventually, complex life evolved and one of the species developed large brains learned things like manners and dabbing, when they looked up at the stars and wonder what they were doing here. You called them octopuses, I suppose. Gosh, they were clever, for octopuses, and one of them, several million years in, almost wrote something in ink on the seafloor, a message to its friend. And the message almost read: "Hi! How are you?" And a few millennia later, space folder back on itself and, you get the idea. Goodbye Octopi.
There's another universe, where life formed on every planet, in every solar system, and it was carbon-based, it was silicon based, it was made of crystals and water and plasma, it was made of quantum fields and light, and everything was alive, everything was doing a boogie, and it was everybody's birthday, everyday, relatively, and everyone got presents, and they had over a trillion languages, some written down, some only spoken, some conducted telepathically, and they bought a galactic civilization together, as a perfect unity, sharing stories, sharing technology, speaking a common tongue, understanding everything about how the cosmos been put together. And finally, when everything was sorted, the galaxies were arranged into perfect geometric formations, transmitting pure love, and wisdom, and birthday greetings to all species in the universe, for all time. Papercuts never happened, coke came in glass bottles, no one even remembered the word for war, everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.
And yet, for a quirk in their evolution, because resources weren't scarce enough on the planets these species developed on, not a single creature in the universe was conscious. Food was eaten and no-one enjoyed it. Movies were released, and there was no laughing, or crying. No-one chuckled at a joke. Ever. Space collapsed back on itself, eventually, and there hadn't been a single moment of sentience in the entire history of creation.
There's another universe, where the strong force is too strong the weak force is too weak and nothing forms. Another, where life develops too late when the Stars have all gone beyond the light boundary and there's nothing to even see. Another with too many dimensions. Another with not enough. Another where time goes in the opposite direction, and species begin as gods, and wind backwards to cells, and never learn to survive. Another that only lasts milliseconds, and collapses in on itself, and heads straight back to oblivion. And that's how it just might be, across all possible universes, across all possible space times. Problems with the laws of nature, not enough resources, missteps in evolution. An atlas of dead-ends.
Then again, there is one exception.
There's another universe, a big one, where life is rare, where intelligent life is very rare indeed, the stars are very distant from each other, the laws of nature are very complex, it's extremely lonely for any species developing, and most never even develop at all, but somewhere, we believe, is a planet where the oceans are vast, and the climate is varied. Where the smartest species on the planet may have developed just the right mix of ambition and kindness. And if you were to travel there, to this unbelievably rare statistical anomaly, to this impossibly lucky planet, where evolution, biology, chemistry, nae, the laws of physics themselves have come together to create sentient intelligent life, you may be able to catch the native inhabitants singing for joy. Of what an impossibly lucky, and rare position they find themselves in. It is a chant of gratitude, a ritual of showing appreciation for ending up in perhaps the one universe, in the one solar system, on the one planet with all the basic ingredients for intelligent, conscious life.
Another night had been spent wasted fiddling among cursed tomes and suspicious artifacts, yet to no avail. The creatures of the night hadn't answered her call, and she was seriously considering going to the local graveyard. At least there she could make contact with the undead, as dry and mundane as it was. Talking to the spirits alone was not enough - she wanted nothing more than to be able to feel their presence completely. Then they wouldn't call her a lunatic; then she could prove to them she was telling the tru-
Her morning alarm from her phone interrupted her train of thought. Though she was angry at the disruptive noise, she knew she couldn't get too annoyed, lest she break the thing like she had done a few months earlier. Swiping the screen to tell it she was up, she turned off the device and pocketed it. It's vibrations, however, caused her to bring it back out.
'A text from Issei...?'
Her fellow cult addict, Issei, had sent her a good-morning text. This was something Koi had come to expect of the young man, as he was quite profusely interested in the dark arts. Strange, considering his total lack of knowledge on the subject, but nonetheless it made Koi feel wanted. She didn't particularly mind his company, seeing as he was funny, though wished he had a bit more focus in times of importance.
'Morning, Koi! Just wondering if you'll be at the clubroom tomorrow? Since you can't come today and all that.'
Koi's response was simple: 'I will be there tomorrow. I hope you're willing to learn this time. I need to get ready. I'll talk to you another time.'
Issei sent a thumbs-up emoji, and the two left it at that. Koi could smell pancakes from the bottom floor of her house. Mother was likely trying to cook again. She sighed and went downstairs, after getting dressed.
The rest of the morning was as it usually went: She and her mother didn't exchange too many words, with her mother being the forward person. She ate at her own pace and watched the news from the table. Not particularly bad weather in the evening, which would be good as it meant she wouldn't have to worry about getting pissed on visiting the therapist or graveyard. She'd grown less anxious around the therapist as of late, yet still wouldn't let her guard down completely. The amusing older lady brought a peaceful aura wherever she went, and didn't show any type of malice or resentment. At least not yet. It was her job, after all, to make Koi feel better about herself.
Pretty soon it was time to leave. Koi made the last finishing touches, doing up her hair and adjusting her uniform, before she left home with her mother. The drive to the school wasn't particularly bad, however she did wish her mother would stop driving as though she wanted to get in a car accident...
4/9 – Hinasho High – Morning
She kissed her mother and waved goodbye. Building ahead, head set to the floor, ears drowning away the everyday talk of students. Her headphones and music served as the gateway from her ears to the outside world, and that gate was shut right up until homeroom was about to begin. She covered her ears right up until everyone was silent, the sign that the teacher had walked in. Finally, Koi straightened out and let her hands fall, resting under the desk like any other student.
She didn't expect the new student, however. He appeared simple, nothing particularly to note about him save for his hair. An albino? On closer inspection it was a possibility, however she chose to dismiss her own criticism for now. Something more important swiftly caught her attention:
He would be sitting next to her.
Directly in-between Akamura and herself. This, Koi was not happy about. She liked her seclusion - it meant less idiots to deal with. If he decided to get friendly with her, she likely wouldn't be able to contain her annoyance. Thankfully, the young man took his seat and didn't say a word. If he knew what was best for him, then he wouldn't talk to her. He'd only make fun of her once he learned the truth, anyways.
4/9 – Hinasho High – Lunch
Maki-Maki immediately stood at the lunchtime bell, bag in hand as she left the classroom, not saying a word to anyone. She hated sitting in class with everyone else. They were always so noisy. And like the rule-breaker she was sometimes attributed to, Koi made her way to the stairway leading to the roof and went up. Her own little place lay at the top set of stairs, next to the door leading to the roof. It was a nice and private location, and kept her away from those who would take another step further than her and open the door to the roof. She didn't trust those people, however the two parties made the unspoken agreement to not speak of each other's involvement on the roof. And so far, she and the other group had upheld that agreement.
Lunch was standard. Rice, a couple vegetables, and some bits of beef here and there. Not the most ambitious she had made, but it did it's job and filled her up nicely. As she felt the growing thirst build up within her, she decided to head back downstairs in order to find the nearby vending machine for drinks. Unfortunately for Koi, there was someone there who appeared to be taking their sweet time. She sighed and near-silently crept up behind the woman.
"If you do not know what to order, shall I order for you?" Though this could be proposed as a means of wanting to engage in conversation, Koi just really wanted her drink, and wasn't about to wait five and a half years to receive it. The blonde seemed not quite like most people, however, though the feeling was very vague. "Or will you be taking your time with this selection?"
@PandaBrady I began writing the post two days ago, but I've come down with a killer headache which makes me wanna die ;-; I'm writing up the rest of the reply now and it should be done within the hour! Sorry for the long wait! :D
@Tenma Tendo Sorry for the short notice, but I won't be able to post tonight because we went out ;-; I also have a couple assignments to do, but I'll see if I can get one tomorrow, maybe during study :3
I'm sorry for not posting, like, at all :o I've been really apathetic (hah! Persona 3 reference :D) towards the RP for reasons I don't really know - writers block, I'd say :3 Either way I'll definitely have a reply up tomorrow! That latest reply got my inspiration spurring!
Age: 20 Height: 5'1 Weight: 45kg Likes: Working, nature, socializing, snowboarding, traditional clothes, cooking, random fun facts, china. Dislikes: Her disability, medicine, being kept in place, the heat, having her fun facts corrected, broken china. Party Trick: Her hand-eye coordination is pretty spot-on, so she can do a bunch of cool stuff using it, like darts! She actually won a state championship for darts a couple years ago, and though she doesn't practice anymore, her skill still remains strong. Profession: She works at MdConalds in Startip City's centre.
Name: Rinato Hjelmen. Call him Ringo! Age: 19 Personality: Rinato has always had the most intriguing tastes, bearing a strong resemblance physically and mentally to his grandfather. He's never typically been one of strong faith, and doesn't place much in gods and the like, having never witnessed a true 'miracle' himself. Despite this somewhat pessimistic outlook, Ringo is actually quite joyous in his youth; he likes to drink and party and live like a bum, as his thrill for new experiences never quite wears him out. Always bubbling with energy and a real lack of manners, Ringo has found himself many times at the mercy of his elders, having done something or said something at the wrong place at the wrong time.
A characteristic which has plagued him most of his life - a curse he calls 'bipolar luck', which he describes as: "Always either really good luck, really bad luck, or both." Though no actual curse truly hovers over him, much to his parents relief, Rinato has been the epitome of bipolar ever since he was young, and to this day suffers from the likes of this curse. Aside from his eagerness to be a rule-breaker and a rebel, Ringo is pretty standard as far as a selfish, stuck-up smart arse goes.
Unless you count his fascination with occult studies and monsters 'interesting', in which case, you may find Ringo is more than he is at first glance.
History: Rinato Hjelmen was a pretty ordinary farming boy living just outside a large town, called "Parpian". Parpian wasn't really the place for Ringo; though he got on with everyone there and all, he felt that it wasn't quite the life for him. As a child he always did things his mother and father would scold him for, such as doing reckless boy stuff and even 'accidentally' breaking the law a couple times. He straightened out after one particular incident in his early teen years injured his crush, and has since not only given up on being a law-breaker, but also a romantic as well.
Although, it's pretty obvious to most that he's quite desperate.
Always at his grandfather's side, Ringo grew up on tales of his grandfather, an adventurer, and fell in love with the concept at a young age that he, too, could become one. It took months of begging before he finally caved in, promising only to train Ringo in both swords and spells if only he would take care of his grandfather's most prized artifact: A book with a strange insignia on the front, which looked like a flame. All but happy to accept, Rinato never knew the secrets truly behind the book, and would later become his primary reason for venturing beyond the simple life in town.
He had his grandfather's blood in him, and discovered his gift for magic three years ago, as well as a strong proficiency with a sword which resulted from years of training. His magical lessons, however, was cut short by the passing of his grandfather. One of his final teachings was behind how the book could amplify the spells Rinato cast, and therefore could make him a decent mage: a shortcut in what would have taken years more to train. He doesn't quite understand it yet, but essentially when casting magic through the book, its power multiplies many times. It's written in a foreign language, yet for some reason Rinato can understand some of it, though is now looking for a scribe to discern the true nature and message within the text.
After his grandfather's passing, Rinato settled into some of his old habits, amplified with age. Though never truly breaking any laws, he would party for nights on end, get drunk in the local tavern time and again, and cause heartbreak in the hearts of countless young women. His string of fuck-ups came to a crashing halt when he was accused of sexually assaulting a young girl, and basically disowned by Parpian. Despite having not done a thing to the young girl, the town believed as they did and eventually he simply couldn't stand it any more. A bottle of brandy later, and he'd left before the dawn, little more than a note of thanks to his parents and all the money they needed to pay for the food he just stole.
Now, out into the big wide world, Ringo finds himself journeying towards the far-off city of Yinyella, City of Knowledge. It's his hope that he can find someone who is able to read the damn book and perhaps teach him more about its contents, although his journey may leave him... side-tracked. It's a long way, and the bestiary back home detailed some interesting creatures that could be found along the way. Buuuuut he'd deal with that when the time came.
Equipment: - Steel Sword. - Cloth shirt and pants with leather boots and gloves. - A rucksack with food, clothes, a bedroll, and water, as well as a potion he managed to nick from the local alchemist. - The book with the fire insignia. - A journal which is kept in his rucksack, for recording anything noteworthy.
Spells: - Wind magic, capable of knocking things back or pulling them close. - Fire magic. Nuff said. - Hypnotism: Also known as mind control. Ringo can sustain direct mind control for little more than thirty seconds, however indirect mind control by making subjects more obedient to him can last for several minutes at a time, sometimes lasting well beyond ten minutes. This depends on the will of the subject and their emotional state, as a calmer mind is easier to control than a distressed one. - Strengthening is the magic by which enhances Rinato's physical form, and gives him a bit more definition. It has a terrible effect of making Rinato really tired if he works too hard in that form, though, so he has to use it wisely. With it he's about as strong as a man twice his size.

And hey, maybe you'll end up addicted like me and want to buy every game on the 3DS like a fucking loony?<br><br>Speaking of loonies, the <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeAWfrBMa2pytnTYnxAtiphQGJU3ojDD7">Fire Emblem Chrobin Comic Dub Project</a> has recently finished, so for those of you who also appreciate the best ship in existence, I highly recommend it. Hell, even if you're not interested in that, I do highly recommend watching it for those into fantasy love stories. The quality improves drastically with each episode, so trust me when I say by the end of it you should be thoroughly impressed. It has helped motivate me in ways I can hardly describe with words, and so I thought the least I could do was put this out there. Maybe it's not for everyone, but I know it was the perfect thing for me.<br>	<br><br>	<br>	</sub></div></th></tr></thead></table></div><br><img src="https://alynerd.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/tumblr_nvrmdwbdkf1ruyji8o1_1280.jpg?w=840" /><br><br><div class="bb-right"><font color="darkblue"><sub>"Do you think you can tip any of the scales in here?"</sub></font><br><font color="purple"><sub>"Chrom, for the love of Naga, I'm thinking..."</sub></font></div><hr class="bb-hr"><div class="table-responsive"><table class="bb-table table"><thead class="bb-thead"><tr class="bb-tr"><th class="bb-th"><font color="darkblue"><sub>"So I heard."<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	</sub></font></th><th class="bb-th"><div class="bb-center"><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DkvxGnlWwAEShes.jpg" /></div></th><th class="bb-th"><div class="bb-right"><sub><font color="purple">"There are better places<br>to take a nap than <br>on the ground, you know."<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	<br>	</font></sub></div></th></tr></thead></table></div><div class="hider-panel"><div class="hider-heading"><button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-xs hider-button" data-name="A Hymn For Goldilocks">A Hymn For Goldilocks [+]</button></div><div class="hider-body" style="display: none"><div class="bb-center"><img src="https://static.tumblr.com/b572f57912d8b5345269f9dc72e04359/yveunmd/zEwn8f4ke/tumblr_static_4fc6jqggm90kg048ok0kkw0ww_640_v2.jpg" /></div><br><br>There is a universe. No-one knows it's name, where gravity wasn't strong enough to bind matter together and no stars formed. And because no stars formed, no stars exploded. And because no stars exploded, no planets came about. And because no planets came about, there was no life.<br><br>There's another universe, no one knows it's name, where gravity was strong enough and did light the stars and planets came about and boy, they were gorgeous, planets in perpetual winter, planets in perpetual summer, planets that could rival the Garden of Eden and no bloody snakes! And on one of them, eventually, complex life evolved and one of the species developed large brains learned things like manners and dabbing, when they looked up at the stars and wonder what they were doing here. You called them octopuses, I suppose. Gosh, they were clever, for octopuses, and one of them, several million years in, almost wrote something in ink on the seafloor, a message to its friend. And the message almost read: "Hi! How are you?" And a few millennia later, space folder back on itself and, you get the idea. <br>Goodbye Octopi.<br><br>There's another universe, where life formed on every planet, in every solar system, and it was carbon-based, it was silicon based, it was made of crystals and water and plasma, it was made of quantum fields and light, and everything was alive, everything was doing a boogie, and it was everybody's birthday, everyday, relatively, and everyone got presents, and they had over a trillion languages, some written down, some only spoken, some conducted telepathically, and they bought a galactic civilization together, as a perfect unity, sharing stories, sharing technology, speaking a common tongue, understanding everything about how the cosmos been put together. And finally, when everything was sorted, the galaxies were arranged into perfect geometric formations, transmitting pure love, and wisdom, and birthday greetings to all species in the universe, for all time. Papercuts never happened, coke came in glass bottles, no one even remembered the word for war, everything was beautiful and nothing hurt. <br><br>And yet, for a quirk in their evolution, because resources weren't scarce enough on the planets these species developed on, not a single creature in the universe was conscious. Food was eaten and no-one enjoyed it. Movies were released, and there was no laughing, or crying. No-one chuckled at a joke. Ever.<br>Space collapsed back on itself, eventually, and there hadn't been a single moment of sentience in the entire history of creation.<br><br>There's another universe, where the strong force is too strong the weak force is too weak and nothing forms.<br>Another, where life develops too late when the Stars have all gone beyond the light boundary and there's nothing to even see. <br>Another with too many dimensions.<br>Another with not enough.<br>Another where time goes in the opposite direction, and species begin as gods, and wind backwards to cells, and never learn<br>to survive.<br>Another that only lasts milliseconds, and collapses in on itself, and heads straight back to oblivion.<br>And that's how it just might be, across all possible universes, across all possible space times. Problems with the laws of nature, not enough resources, missteps in evolution.<br>An atlas of dead-ends.<br><br>Then again, there is one exception.<br><br>There's another universe, a big one, where life is rare, where intelligent life is very rare indeed, the stars are very distant from each other, the laws of nature are very complex, it's extremely lonely for any species developing, and most never even develop at all, but somewhere, we believe, is a planet where the oceans are vast, and the climate is varied. Where the smartest species on the planet may have developed just the right mix of ambition and kindness.<br>And if you were to travel there, to this unbelievably rare statistical anomaly, to this impossibly lucky planet, where evolution, biology, chemistry, nae, the laws of physics themselves have come together to create sentient intelligent life, you may be able to catch the native inhabitants singing for joy. Of what an impossibly lucky, and rare position they find themselves in. <br>It is a chant of gratitude, a ritual of showing appreciation for ending up in perhaps the one universe, in the one solar system, on the one planet with all the basic ingredients for intelligent, conscious life.<br><br>~Exurb1a</div></div></div>
