"Whaaat?! Your hands are still burnt? You seemed to have been feeling me just fine, so how can it differ?" "Er..." he stopped for a moment. He had been pretty forward with her a moment ago, so he wasn't surprised she didn't think his hands were still in bad shape, "I know after what I just did, you'd probably think otherwise, but they're still hurting too much to hold a sword properly..." And once again, he felt bad. "Maybe I'll just use a friggin knife, those are easy to use..." "Yeah, but they're not very powerful. And if you miss your target with a knife, well, you're ridiculously close then. It'd leave you wide open." She slid her legs over the bed, and he looked over, blushing. Her skirt was still ripped up and... I can almost see... oh god stop looking! He quickly turned his head away, as she started playing with his hair, red like mad. "I-I think we should get you a new skirt before we do anything..." He didn't mind her messing with his hair, though it reminded him that he'd lost his hat. Oh well, probably lost that thing ages ago.

Adrian "Yeah they'll be starting up soon. Pretty sure not for a couple hours at the earliest... I suppose watching people beat the shit out of each other would make me feel better." "Maybe. It might show you how some people fight, as well. It'd be something to do at least. And, hey, we can see if Ormis wins again, or gets his ass kicked, ha ha." He'll lose, there's no way he can win two times in a row. I like the kid, but... he's just not that good of a fighter. He sat up on the pillow, his back starting to hurt from the floor, and decided to lean against the bed side. "So um... I guess... you're feeling better now? Maybe after the matches, we could go grab some weapons, maybe do some hunting to get me started or something? I don't know what to do. I wanna get going on getting some training and know-how, but at the same time, I don't want to be wasting this money..." "My hands are still burnt. I don't really know if I could hold a sword yet, but if you want to try and fight against a dummy, or go hunting something small, I could supervise. I'm no sword master here, though. I only know the basics myself, but..." He'd suddenly become unsure if he could properly teach her how to wield a sword. He'd only taught himself by swinging the thing against a makeshift scarecrow in his back yard for around a year. "... I can try my best to help." He looked up at her as he spoke, hoping she'd be alright with his help. Amera "One hundred per person? Seems fairly generous to me. But something tells me they're not going to be so easy to convince, or at the very least part with so much money to too young ones like you." "I guess it does, but considering the size of that... that thing, I would be hoping that would pay more... but, again, you're right. I doubt they'll even believe we've killed it, with how young we are... Hrm." Amera hadn't thought of this. The people at the guild hadn't taken her very seriously, and with the way her ribs were right now, she wouldn't be able to beat some sense into them, lest she risk taking some pretty heavy damage if one of them got a hit on her stomach. "I guess Gideon'll just have to knock some sense into them, if they don't believe us, won't he?" She said, changing her tone into something sweet, near the end. Toying with him was starting to be quite enjoyable, to her.

In FFtF? What the fuck am I thinking posting serious shit here. That was not a question, it was a statement, because there's no one who can give a proper answer to such a question. NOW. Here's said shield: VAGINA DENTATA ALL UP IN THIS BITCH (not really) BUT THIS IS THE THING THAT'S BEATING THE BLIND ARCHER'S SHIELD. (His shield seen here: http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=25120&view=findpost&p=1615102 ) Now I am here to ask the lot of you to help out a fellow member of our wonderful internet community, by doing as such: http://www.facebook.com/darksouls Alright, first off, like the page. If not, it won't allow you to allow the App. So like it, allow the App, and enter the gallery. Once inside, go to around page 11 (It may be on later pages by now), and find the Marble Star Buckler. This would be Dei's shield design. Go ahead and vote for that, if you like it, as well as any other shields you might like in the gallery. Because Dei deserves your support, and doesn't deserve to lose to some lack luster shield when he could seriously win this contest. Now I know asking people to help out in FFtF is a bad idea, but hey. It's better than not asking at a-- well, that could be up for debate, but I'm sure more people will vote for him than not, if I ask. And if he wins, this site'll get tonnes more publicity, because his shield will be used in the game, and he'll get mentioned in the credits! It'd be totally awesome to have a reputable member from our community mentioned in this game!

"At least buy me a drink first." "Oh, that's cute," she mocked with a giggle, "Ham doesn't count." "Darn, I was hoping to get an easy ride back into town. Guess I'm walking..." At the very least, it had been worth a shot to try and get him to carry her, but she'd be able to walk. "What are we getting paid for this again?" She scratched her head, trying to remember the reward. "I think it was, uhhh... one hundred gold pieces per person? Something like that." Amera was only worrying about getting enough for a night at the inn; her body could not wait for their soft, clean beds.

Adrian "Or if you're heading out, gimme some of that bread pleeease. Even if you aren't, gimme." He quickly handed her one of the bread rolls, taking another for himself. "Nah, you're right. It's still early, and I might need some more sleep." He took one of the pillows off of the bed, and threw it onto the floor next to it, laying his head down. The floor wasn't ridiculously comfortable, but he felt he needed to give Carrion her space. And then he remembered... "Actually... aren't those matches going to be starting soon? If you'd rather we skip them today, that's fine." He wasn't so sure it was fine, but he didn't reflect that in his speaking. Adding another level of stress onto Carrion, no matter how small, wasn't something he'd wanted to do at the moment. Amera "As long as a normal walk... they're not that heavy for me, child. I can carry them for you." "Really? You're a life saver; that'd be great!" She knew she didn't want to carry one, not with her stomach the way it was. She could walk, now, but when she'd rolled over earlier she'd felt her rib jab her. She'd, unfortunately, have to see a healer when they got back to the city. "Amera, you feeling alright?" She sighed and smiled, wanting not to tell him of her rib stab from earlier. "I'll be fine, Gideon... unless you're so worried that you want to carry me~?" she joked with him, even making a silly pouting face, before laughing and starting to walk off.

'But it must be easier for you... look at you, you're stunning!' "Uh, well..." She'd never been complimented by a girl before, so it was a bit awkward to receive such a statement. "Thanks, I guess. It's not like you're ugly, though. You're pretty cute; give yourself some more credit!" She poked the fire with a stick, looking over at Ignatius. "Hey, Iggy, how long d'you think it'll take us to get back while caring those monsters?" She was referring to the tusks, which were actually looking like they could prove to be a difficult challenge to carry back. Hope it's worth it to drag these suckers back to town...

'Not... much to say... I'm Carrie, my family worked regular jobs... my mom is a market stall owner, can trade milk to a milker on a good day… my father is a watchmaker, he can see the intricacies of the smallest things, but can be oblivious to emotion around him.. "They sound like nice people! Ha ha..." '...I grew up wanting to be something special, but didn't feel like I truly was...' "Oh, don't say that! Just because you might not be something special right now, doesn't mean you can't be. That's all up to you," Amera said, poking Carrie's arm. "It's not like I was born being able to fight, or use magic. I learned. I'm sure you can learn to do something special, if you put your mind do it, Carrie." This feels kinda weird, ha ha. I'm not used to being the voice of reason to other people... She scratched her head, giving Carrie an unsure smile, but it was still sincere.

'This...i...isn’t...huff… as heavy as I.. thought...' Carrie had tried to pick up one of the larger pieces of the boar, and was now struggling to stand. Amera quickly took it out of her hands and set it down, chuckling a bit. "Don't start going just yet. We've still gotta wait for Iggy to get the rusks off of it." She stole the girl's hand and pulled her over to the fire, sitting her down, and sitting down herself. "Let's just relax until we've got to get going. Why don't you tell me some more about yourself?" She was interesting in hearing more about her, since they didn't get much out of her last night.

'Anything...' she yawns again, stretching but quite happily wanting to help '...I can do to help?' Amera looked behind her, smiling as the girl from the night before appeared to have stayed. "Carriiiiiie~" She said with a flamboyant tone, as she turned towards the girl and lazily gave her a hug. "How're you doing this morning?" She was always like this with other girls, and smaller boys. Hugs were fun. "Yes, you can help by standing there and being your cute li'l self, unless you think you can carry some of that," Amera said, as she motioned towards the boar.

Ha ha, I don't think so. She has an account here, iirc, harudoku, or something close to that. It might be Utsuho, but I don't think she comes onto SF anymore.

:3 But yeah, IRL Maddie is 6'7", and quite large, so...

You don't know Maddie, do you? xD

Another RMXP game? Based on FE? Must've taken you a long time to get an engine working properly for it.

Adrian "It's... fine. It was a panic attack, just don't... don't do that to me again, OK? I'll get my act together soon, sorry I keep exploding on you like this..." "Don't be sorry," he said softly, stroking her hair, "it was my fault, so don't apologize. I should've realized how you felt with your powers gone. I won't do it again." He sat down with her, not wanting to lean against the wall anymore. Sitting would be more comfortable. "D'you want to just go lay down and relax for a bit? I could go and see if Amera and Gideon have come back." He'd rather stay with her, but if she wanted him to check for them, he would. He felt like he had to do whatever she said to make her feel better, for his own incompetence. Amera "If you need help carrying anything, I have no problems helping you young ones out. Don't be afraid to ask..." "Uhhh, okay, could you tear those tusks off of its face? That should be good enough for the guild." The tusks were large, and menacing, and if they didn't convince the guild that the boar had been killed, then... Amera didn't actually know.

"I just... don't like the pulling or forcing, OK?" "I-I can stop doing that. I can." He had a sort of eagerness in his voice. "I realize how unfair this might be for you, Adrian, but please... Please try to understand my point of view here. If I have to stop teasing you and giving you crap to get you to not do that again, I'd stop in a heartbeat, alright? "I do, I do, and I can stop, I promise." You don't... have to stop that, though... He'd thought about her teasings for a moment, and he really didn't mind them. "I have never felt this way before and I don't what we've got here, as fucking crazy and convoluted as it is, to be ruined because of misunderstandings!" "I don't either, I really, really don't." At this point he'd gotten off the bed and was standing next to her, against the wall. "Again, I know this is unfair to you given your intentions, but I cannot know that for sure, I just can't read minds, I can't, Adrian..." He let her come into a hug, instead of pull her into one, but he couldn't help and smile at what she'd said. "You can bring people back from the dead. I'm sure you'll be reading minds one day. Again, though, I'm... I'm really sorry."
