XWuZHeAR

X stood listening even though it actually began to physically pain him a little bit to go this long without saying anything or moving. Oikawa seems to want to wait for more people X only visibly grows more agitated. Even Maruchan the familiar was getting a little riled up which was unheard of given his carefree personality. While Zelrius and X were never fully guild mates the group forming in secret referred to as the sinners was something they would both be a large part of. However with Zero and X's disappearances the group was officially disbanded before it even formed. Also that's not the only thing X has against his former guild mate  he refers to as psycho-kawa  a reference to the time oikawa went crazy and almost murdered X.

*Slow really loud clap*...So he's actually gone and done it? I'm surprised actually, I know me! The one who called this off the bat.... I was about to speak but instead restrained myself trying not to make the scene I'm causing worse...Well look here, Psycho-kawa back at it again with the pointy blade!... Please do explain to all of us who you attempte- wait no I mean succeeded in murdering in cold blood this time?... Ruff Rrrrrufff... Damn it I caused an even bigger scene didn't I?

Maruchan licked my face to wake me up...Ughh what, what?... Ruff Rrrrruff...Oh yeah *yawns* fetch me the guitar... When maruchan came back with the silver guitar in his mouth I actually realized this little pint sized pup was a lot stronger than he looked, little jerk could totally help me out in combat if he wanted to... "Now I'm the king of the swingest hole, jungle v.i.p..... oh oobee doo I wanna be like you-oo-oo..."...Yes I'm singing king Louie's song from the jungle book just let it happen.

ooc: Rain and Seirra will join in later as pre discussed.

"Hey hey did you not think I would noooooooootice!"... The end of my song was met with light applause from the players eating in the café it always humbles me and makes me realize how much of a minority we performers really are... Thank you thank you, I'm going to take a little break for now but I might come back up later...

X steps down from the stool and scoops up a sleeping Maruchan and sets him back down letting him nap on his shoulder with his hind legs dangling down his back and fore legs dangle down the left side of his chest. Al the café owner was still clapping by the time X began walking down from the stage. X let go of a really sarcastic bow towards the café owner in question. While walking over he notices a girl reading braille off a menu a sight he had never seen before.

No way, you understand how to read that stuff?...Was this girl blind or something in the real world? I didn't notice anything different in her eyes maybe the system doesn't only use facial recognition to make all of our features. I then pulled up a chair and invited my self to sit down nest to the girl to learn more... Hey my names X mind if I join you?... This was usually how these gigs end up, making a new lifelong friend. After sitting down I grabbed Maruchan and set him down on my lap still asleep and began gently petting him.

X is back at it again in the starlight café performing new cover songs with the blessing of his good friend the café owner. The wooden stool is almost poetic justice at this point with how many times he was played a show here in front of small crowds. Only today it was an unannounced performance so the café was peaceful and only sparsely filled with regulars. X's familiar slept lazily under the wooden stool still wagging his tail to the music. The music itself was calming already, but tagged along with the smell of the café senses almost numbed.

Feels good to be back, yeah yeah but uh I do wish we had time to get a crowd I need to start rebuilding my fame... "hey hey little red bird...."

The café guests pleasantly enjoyed there meals and drinks as most of them kept quietly to themselves. Oh what a day it always turns out to be whenever X hangs out in this café.

The post.

X and Maruchan walk into the dojo everything just exactly as it was during they're absence. X then swiped up and opened the menu that appeared in front of him, after a few clicks here and there the infamous guitar appeared in his hands. The same silver guitar with fluer de lies carvings and the red ribbon strap just by the way alone it shines even on low light it catches notable attention.

Well maruchan the new album's not gonna record itself... rrrrrr-ruff ruff!... hm these strings always make me feel better... "Breaking my back just to know your name..."

9- A really catchy original song by X.... wasn't good enough for enhancements now was it? (good item)

+ 19 EXP

The sound of a rampaging minotaur filled the walls and with each step shook the earth. HAAAAAAAAAAAGAAGGHHGHHHHGHHHH! The minotaur was in fact well aware of the death of his twin. Now getting closer and closer the noise grew louder and louder.

I gently closed my eyes as I felt the beast moving closer. When the sound stopped and changed to heavy breathing I slowly opened my eyes to see the minotaur flash a smile at me before standing up to swing at me. [censored]!

Battle: 1 critical fail!  MOB: 8 - 3=5 miss! ID: 60278

The giant sword barely misses X's neck by a few centimeters it is so close the gridlines of the game itself flashed briefly.

OOC : (ha~ I sorta left again for longer this time. il be finishing up this RP with this post anyone whose still alive message me so I know how to split up the col for now I'm aking a fourth.)

The wind picked up for one furious gust seemingly blowing from all directions, in that moment X looked down at the snow for a few minutes. He had become flustered now fully aware of the possibilities of his friends dying or worse, also about his career as a performer being reset, even his fighting style might be dated at this very point. All of it just became a single feeling in his chest he had never felt before, the product became a single tear that disappeared into blue shards with the wind.

I wiped my face expecting there to be the salty liquid but there was nothing but the feeling of my own skin... well I know I promised you all an adventure in some way but by now I think you may have realized the traumatic realization I have just come to.... I then picked up Maruchan and set him down on my shoulders before opening my menu once more to equip my signature guitar on my back. If anyone asks you guys if anything new is going on you tell them... 'X is back'...

well after a few hours my skills and equipment are up to date although i will need to make a new signature maybe get one of the fancy ones everyone has.

heres my: Journal, Evaluations page, and My Shop. I am well behind on the game and could use all the explanations i can get. Id appreciate any help anyone has to offer.

1. What form should PK take? Defend your answer.

I think it could be both a duel of high stakes where the perma roller trumps all luck, and both a tool for character development.

2. Should PK be mutually agreed upon when involving two PC's?

yes unless the two are actually dueling to the death then the perma roller decides it. unless you are orange or red even seriously whats the point of being dark side if you don't constantly regret the decision of killing someone.

3. Should agreement to enter a duel, regardless of location, automatically mean that both duelling players are alright with the potential for PK?

Yes as in lower level players should refrain from dueling higher level players, however should an actual death duel be taking place some admins should be notified.

4. What threads should never be allowed to be PK in?

I dont know anything about the previous events as i just returned to the site but im going to say Shop threads, boss fights, certain quests, and OP's unless its accepting challengers sort of thing.

5. Any other PK relevant information you want to share?

Yes. i once abused the dueling system to score a PK while keeping a green cursor long ago, i know what i did was wrong whatever. I was really just testing how far i could take the system and turn it on it self at the expense of another players character. Even then there was a lot of confusion and debate over what to do with me. So i think PK's need to be more black and white rather than what the intentions behind a PK was.

The virtual wind cut through the trees uncharacteristically violent almost as if they were screaming out. However it was hard to pinpoint the reason why, be it annoyance, anger, or grief. A guitar begins strumming in the distance seemingly calming the wind. After a message chime resulting in a bum note all sound stops.

.... "Ruff ruff"... "Shhh calm boy"... "Well maybe I was right about him ha"... I sure do hope I'm not.

The wind furiously swirls again as two figures dash from tree to tree. The edge of the forest was rapidly approaching. The wind now calmed into a sort of heartbeat like gust.

damnit damnit damnit, regardless of if my ex guild mate is crazy or not he's still orange now, sure I've killed before but I'm still green in my own way. I also noticed Zel, my almost comrade is dead... This better not be connected.

The boy and small dog known as X and Maruchan have arrived. A little later than others but still in attendeance. Against his instinct X chose to keep a low profile until called out atleast to get a story.

I will admit I got a little nervous when the girl clung to my arm and then even confessed that she would like to keep holding my hand. I should probably also admit to myself at least that i wouldn't mind it either. Alright then I guess il go back to using this then! hahaha I joked as i grabbed the girls hand again sorta turning her own joke back on her. By now we were already reaching one of the main exits of the town. I looked over at the girl since she told me she doesn't have a lot of experience out in the field. Hey, we don't have to do this if you don't want to.  There's plenty of other ways you can... see me in action. I tried to joke about what i heard her say earlier but accidentally got a little quiet at the end which made me feel a bit embarrassed.

 "But another way would be perfectly fine..." She did not just say that. I thought as i squeezed her hand slightly tighter to lead her out of the town and into the field so we can find something to fight. As we walked through the city my thoughts kept racing and my body felt a little off thinking about it. H-hey cling all you want i could probably fight while carrying you hahaha I managed to joke while not facing her. Dam it how did i become the nervous one now? I then took a few breaths to calm down as Maruchan barked and began to walk in front of us. We were crossing over a short bridge when i noticed i was still holding her hand. Oh my bad. I forgot i was holding it. I said as i let go of it quickly and picked up maruchan. Lets hurry its gonna get late while were out there.

I felt so bad that I just joked about suicide when I'm wearing these wraps and just sang that song that i know briefly thought about suicide. A strong man huh? My eyes then widened as I instantly forgot everything i just thought about. Lia then spoke suggestively about me seeing me in action which made me blush a little as I let out the single word Yes. I then looked around the town originally looking for an inn but then deciding she didn't mean it that way. You wanna see me fight right? I asked her as I got up off the ground and offered my hand to help her up. We can go out into the field if you want. Don't worry I'l protect you. I promised the green eyed girl as I let go of a genuine smile.

While talking with Jomei when Azide came over and asked me a bunch of questions about girls or whatever. Never you mind about my harem hahaha and yeah all the girls look stunning, a lot of them really went all out. I told Azide starting to have a good time. Jomei then joked about how he didn't recognize me without the headband which i actually didn't realize was one of my more predominant features. I thought for sure the scar would get peoples attention but I've never even had to tell people the story behind it. Just then a guy ran into me making me spill my drink in Azide's direction. My martial arts skill then activated by accident and my glass was crushed in my fist leaving shards of glass piercing through my hand. Agh damn it! I said as i got angrier and angrier. I then felt a hand on my shoulder i pushed away angrily before i got myself fully under control. Again i was reminded of a memory from a party in the real world, one where i got into a fight. With out realizing it my hand went back into a fist crunching the glass further into my hand. 

Let it go... let it go... I told myself trying to resist this urge i had. I then looked up at where the player was and noticed he was causing a scene I really didn't care about it; I just needed to...punch... something. Instead of going for the players face like i wanted to I instead went over to a table and slammed down hard making the immortal object notification pop up as the food on the table jumped up then landed back into place. I then opened my hand as the glass shards durability wore out and they exploded into blue crystals but left my hand wounded. Without knowing what to do next i decided it be best if i calmed myself down and then walk over to notify Zel of this scene. Hey zel, some people are causing a scene, want me to ask them to leave? I asked Zel not wanting him to have to deal with such things on his birthday like me starting a fight. Man out of all the people in this party this dude had to choose me to shove out of the way so he can go argue with his boyfriend or whatever.

Good boy! I told my dog as i took the crafting material and patted his fur dearly. Just then i heard something running through the maze which made me instantly lie down on my stomach. It was the other Minotaur stomping around like he knew i killed his twin. Damn it damn it damn it damn it.. I kept repeating in a hushed tone as I watched the rampaging beast run through the maze. Go look for more materials. I told maruchan as a way for him to get out of here so i can get a better look at the monster with out having to worry about him.

ID: 32589 Loot: 12+1= no mats found

Maruchan returns with nothing in his mouth.

Maruchan again had failed but that was okay because it seems were going to be in this damn maze for a while. The mist is relaxing so there's not exactly much to complain about. Some other quest has you wondering through a hot ass desert and believe me this is a thousand times better. Im usually not one for grinding or questing but im behind now so i need to catch up and fast too. Go on search again. I told maruchan as he darted away.

ID: 32586 loot 15+1= 1 mat. found

Maruchan then came sprinting back with a recording crystal in his mouth.

As I traversed through the labyrinth I was obviously lost but i didn't care too much it was almost relaxing and surreal having no idea where you are. Maruchan seemed to be enjoying himself due to us now playing fetch a favorite game for maruchan as a treasure hunter. The game is simple really i give the command to go search for items and maruchan does so. If he finds an item I can use I say good boy and give him a pat like any good dog owner would do. My familiar is the best i think while he doesn't assist in combat he gives this edge in searching for items setting me ahead by mmo standards. *sharp whistle* And he's off to go find something as the game continues. 

iD: 32546 Loot: 12+1= no mats found.

MAruchan came back empty handed again this time getting a little frustrated.

More and more i scrolled through my maps of not only this floor but others, for some reason i have tons and tons of markers placed that i don't remember placing like ever. I ignored the two players before me as they discussed armor i think as i kept on reading all these notes I've placed on my map. It seems I've been extremely busy looking for something but i don't remember what. Ha dagger? What ever happened to the rapier not that I care as a fist fighter which no one seems to want to do. I'm just wondering wasn't it a perfect? I asked azide since after being in a guild together you'd think i'd know what he used. I'l be honest I main fist fighting for reasons other than the hype or because I'm a suicidal idiot. That aside it doesn't matter what you fight with just hit the damn target and you'll be ok; besides I'm gonna be there so that's already a guaranteed win since my duel record is flawless. I said jokingly but then i thought about it and realized I've literally never lost a duel even to ariel before I even became a fist fighter. 

I was done fighting the guardian, un-touched weirdly enough it seems i really do still got it. My way of combat doesn't exactly focus on one aspect which just makes me a wild card in fights unable to tame. The reason so few people choose to become fist fighters is due to our reputation as suicidal bastards in literally a death game. The only thing to block with is your arms which aren't the best thing to catch a blade with so speed is the better way to go for defense but at the same time the less power you have the less effectiveness you have in combat as well. Maruchan come on. I called as the dog led me into the maze. Maruchan is a treasure hunter so i usually have him search for materials while im doing walking quests like this. Maruchan, find it. I commanded as the pup sped up deep into the mist.

Id; 32553 Loot: 2+1 no mats found.

The dog came back with nothing and pouted.

The player's face was fully red and was a little embarrassing to see happen to a girl right in front of you. A rather formal greeting for someone im sitting on the ground with but i decided to go with it and tried my hand and being formal. gracias, Igualmente. I sai- wait was that in spanish? almost a year and a half away from my mother and this randomly comes out? Oh i mean uhhh yeah same. I said correcting myself but putting down my idea of returning the formal greeting. Yeah i used to be in a guild that helped lower level players. I can tell your level one pretty easily, no offense. I told the player trying to make them feel better about there image. Not confident alone? well that's a good thing really if you ask me. While I'm neither a front line line tank or extremely accurate damage dealer. I actually just realized how much of a suicidal idiot I am haha! I joked while holding up my hand wraps, however my smile quickly disappeared as i stared at my hand wraps realizing the gravity of the words i just said. 

Azide seemed confused when i said i just took a two month sleep and to be honest i am very surprised im not feeling... emotions right now i actually think i may be drugged. ah no wait its a game; not like anyone can just stick a needle in me while passing by or slip something into my drink. Still how am i so calm about everything? Is it because the game had such a huge psychological impact i didn't realize made me think this is no big deal. Well either way i feel fine about it. For now anyways. Ah adventures right, right adventures, adventures I mumbled as i patted my pockets and flipped through my map which for some reasons had an insane markings of difrent locations i had no idea what meant. There's a skull and cross bones mark i put here but cant remember why! It looks cool lets go check it out. I proposed seriously not think about why its a goddamn skull and cross bones. It looks like i was searching for something before whatever the hell happened actually happened. Due to all the other crazy markings on my map i spotted something else. Wait! this ones a red skull and crossbo- NO wait! This one has a red skull and crossbones, flames, and a very long warning note i don't want to read... lets go check it out!

After Zel stepped forward to greet me and accepted his present after saying it was unnecessary I simply just handed it to him regardless whether or not he actually wanted it. After that the party began to pick up and i looked around at everyone in very elegant clothing for the occasion meanwhile im here in a bit more of a modern party outfit that actually reminded me of something i wore to a party in the real world. To some it up everyone looked 1920 while i looked 2020 if only i could get a pair of red sneakers into the game this would exactly mimic an outfit that I did actually where to a party in the real world. Either way i felt out of place as i noticed the girls with there silk gloves and then me with the un-tucked modern style. At least i had the decency to take off the headband and get a tie; after about a few more minuets of feeling awkward i decided to embrace it and roll up my sleeves to my elbows to really give off the different more immature look i had going. 

I then walked over to the food since of course i was hungry im actually not sure if i was ever not hungry. Maruchan certainty was since he ignored all the people around and stuck with me to get some food. The spread was insane I don't think I've ever seen this much food at one time in this game. I began pouring myself a drink pondering why the hell maruchan is acting so damn behaved. He's actually just following me around rather than climbing all over me not to mention how quiet he has been since we greeted Zel. I then walked back to my group of first comers i was originally standing among and spotted jomei looking a bit deflated Hey Jomei, nice party isn't it? Personally i feel out of place because I admit i expected to show up and get wasted but, even maruchan is acting civil sophisticated like its the 1920's. I said as i put a hand on jomei's shoulder basically explaining my thoughts of the past ten minuets. It's almost a shame really having two of Aincrad's best performers in attendance but choosing to go with a recording crystal for music. Im not saying a performance is in order with respect to Zel's party but hell I'm down to play anytime hahaha. I joked as i took a drink from the glass i was holding.
