I know that. It's a one time thing that I used to leave this opening for the plot to continue instead of just having us stand in a cave blowing each other up all day.

I have most of my post finished, so when my brother returns and writes his up, we should be good to go.

You are a GM. You can post [[You hear noises coming from the walls]] at any time. And if I remember correctly, Sicon's attack did something to the room.

Don't quite remember. But I think one more line before we get into the full RP sounds like a good idea. Anyway I will be gone for the next three hours gents. See you when I get out.

OK, my brother is going to get on, talk about surviving First Strike, and then I'm going to do my part and give the plot a chance. I think at that point, a GM should come in and have the monsters show up before we get into the round two that is obviously coming when you guys attack me.

If the GM posts right after me, this has the added bonus of cycling the initiative down the post order. That way, neverslender gets to react first this time around. If we keep a cycle going like that we can allow everyone to do cool stuff. Looks like things are working out perfectly!

As usual, I went completely over the top, including background music and a banner image for the sake of my awesome laser o' doom. Unfortunately, I experienced several technical difficulties, so if the BGM A: Doesn't link B: Links to the wrong video or the image file A: is broken B: displays a picture of an error message, try refreshing the page.

The Final Spark was aimed upward at the sword/roof, not at anybody in the area. It was a defensive counter-laser, not an attack. Same with the Shortwave/Orrieres Solar System 2nd stage combo I used after it.

Touhou Project. It's a series of anime-styled Japanese upward-scrolling Bullet Hell genre shooter games revolving around Loads and Loads of ridiculously overpowered heroines, most of whom are anthropomorphized Youkai or mythical beings from other legends and cultures. I'm playing as one of the main protagonists, who's a witch/black magician in the western sense. She specializes in lasers, more dakka, and making things go boom. Check my signature's links under "Laser Beam" for a link to the series' TVTropes page.

Marisa is from Touhou. She's one of the protagonists, so, pretty much pick any game and observe the awesome... Touhou 06 Extra Stage is my recommendation though... The Extra Boss AND the stage music are distilled awesome.

Lol. Yeah, but then Patchy's Royal Flare and Flan's ridiculous nets of bullets kinda steal the show, don't they?

Yup. Pansies. I don't even know what to do in reaction to you besides shit myself, but that wouldn't make for a very productive use of my turn.

So. Many. Characters.
And by the way I remember having seem that page some time ago. Maybe two or three months ago. I know more series than I watch, mostly because of the random button. I'm luck I'm lazy, or else the wiki walks would take forever. Also, I'm almost done with my homework. 1 and a half question left.
And by the way, I want to talk about Isaac's items and inhuman resiliency. But I think I will do that with Xana, and depending on the results, I will talk to you.
