I have come to the conclusion that Christmas is idiotic.

On the twelfth day of Christmas, peoplesprincess sent to me...
Twelve shia_o_shimas lightningbending
Eleven pinkmoodswings ruling
Ten flamingofudas a-fighting
Nine justin_of_parms commanding
Eight hiddenqueens a-lightning
Seven fuzzyrats a-lying
Six nicecollarbones a-firebending
Five se-e-e-ervants
Four not eclipses
Three giving orders
Two hot baths
...and a manipulation in an astronomy.
Get your own Twelve Days:


In 2009, peoplesprincess resolves to...
Cut down to ten not eclipses a day.
Take evening classes in logic.
Pay for my servants on time.
Tell my family about giving orders.
Go commanding three times a week.
Admit my true feelings to wildest_card.
Get your own New Year's Resolutions:


Fire Nation holidays are much more purposeful- and probably a good deal more enjoyable, too.

I'm just explaining the reason of celebrating to her, I never said that I believe in all that.

Oh good. It sounded like you did, I'm sorry for jumping to conclusions.

I owe you about five billion, by the way. What can I do once I get out of this damned hospital to make it up to you?

I don't like the idea of someone controlling my life. I believe in Darwin's Theory Of Evolution, because it give us proof, but at the same time, and more since I joined the community, I can't reject the idea of the existence of gods. So I'm an atheist, not in the affirmation of the nonexistence of gods, but on the explicit position of the rejection of theism.

It's fine Tyki, you don't need to thank me. Just take care of yourself, and Zechs. Even if I knwo that he will be fine as long as you are too.

he's still angry that I destroyed the ZERO?

And I should apologize to you, I helped him to built it.

I hate that, too. Who's Darwin?

I never doubted the existence of God, so I guess I'm an atheist the same way as you are.

I want to thank you, Saguru, and you don't need to apologize. You didn't know, and I don't blame you for helping him. You probably saved his life by doing what I asked you to do, and the rest of it wasn't your fault.

I like to think that my destiny it's on my own hands.

Charles Robert Darwin was an English naturalist, who demonstrated that all species of life have evolved over time from common ancestors through the process of natural selection.Darwin did not share the racism common at that his time. He was strongly against slavery, against "ranking the so-called races of man as distinct species", and against ill-treatment of native people. Writers used natural selection to argue for various, often contradictory, ideologies such as laissez-faire dog-eat dog capitalism, racism, warfare, colonialism and imperialism. However, Darwin's holistic view of nature included "dependence of one being on another", thus pacifists, socialists, liberal social reformers and anarchists such as Prince Peter Kropotkin stressed the value of co-operation over struggle within a species. Darwin himself insisted that social policy should not simply be guided by concepts of struggle and selection in nature.

I don't really need anything at the moment, Tyki, but thanks for the offer. Maybe once I talk to Akako and she kill me for hurting myself you can help Aoko to find my corpse. Akako will be already torturing my soul, but my father will appreciate something to bury.

Zechs is..a complicate person. I still want to be his friend if he wants. even if I hate it when he call me boy

((occ:I don't really know how the x-potions works, they can cure broken bones? or jsut act like painkillers?)

...Oh. You know, I think I heard some people fluttering over some guy named that, now that I think about it. I guess it's good that he had a successful career.

I'll think of something, don't worry. And Akako's officially not permitted to hurt you.

Zechs is indeed a complicated person. Now you understand why I asked you to watch over him...

((They don't just act like painkillers, they should heal the damage significantly, though I usually play it like they don't heal it completely, but some of it needs to be healed naturally))

Indeed...What years was you in exactly? it's not the same Earth, but maybe some events that happened on my world will happen on yours too.

You don't have to, really. You are my friend, as I told Zechs, I did it because I wanted, not because I had to.

Oh, she is the only one allowed to scratch me, but that's private.

Uhm..yes. And I'm honored by that.

((occ: thanks~))

It's 1899 where I'm from. From what I've heard, it sounds like things that happened in your world go on in mine. Though the Akuma and the war may be derailing history, so to speak.

I want to, Saguru. And I also hope to help you two repair your friendship. I do think Zechs will forgive you, once he gets over himself, if it helps.

Yeah I imagined it. But still, do you know about the World Wars? They will happens on the the 20th century, and it's not going to be nice.

Thanks then, Tyki.

..I hope so. He's as stubborn as I am. I think that's that's why our personalities collide sometimes. And for someone who never really had a decent childhood, he react very offended when thinks that someone is treating him like a child.

I also told him not to blame himself for showing emotions, but...

Zechs mentioned them. I hadn't really worried too much about them, honestly. Either everyone in my world will already be dead by then, or I will be, I expect.

I understand, believe me. I'm very stubborn, myself, if you ever noticed. Zechs really doesn't like to feel weak, and takes great pride in his independence. I'm afraid you ran straight up against something that's been building within him for a long time - he felt helpless to protect me, or do anything to help. It's not something that he wants to accept.

You're right. ...sigh. And after all, maybe the world need the wars to understand.

I noticed. Lovely, aren't we? That's the problem, showing emotions not necessary mean that you're weak. But tell that to him, or Rufus.

If you ask me, the control is not to suppress them, but know what emotion show on every situation. Even if that can turn you into a very good damed liar, I know it well.

Don't get me wrong, I was worried for you as well, and I understood Zechs because I really don't like to feel helpless either, but someone needed to be a cold bastard and stop him. That's why I did what I did. If he at least would try to see it like that..

Re: [Locked]

Perhaps they do, I don't know.

Indeed. They're both far more alike then they like to admit. I try to help Zechs to understand that showing emotion isn't weakness, but it's slow going. Now I'll probably have to start training him all over again.

I suppose that's a different way to deal with it. I tend to just go with it, myself. I'm not afraid of my emotions, though I suppose I do like to maintain my dignity. I'm probably more like your way of doing things, I just show it in a different way.

I know you were, Saguru, and honestly I believe Zechs will see it that way, too. I had to be a cold bastard, myself. Sometimes it's the only thing that gets through to him. Anyway, he'll forgive you when he calms down...

So you was the other person who tell him that? I imagined it. He told me that someone else tried to make him understand that before.

Different persons, different ways.

Oh well, I can't do anything more for now.

It'll get sorted out, don't worry.
