    I finally posted a new chapter in Kako! Kako 45 is online--46 is written, and I meant to type it this week, but I got a little busy. I'll try to get it up soon.
     
    In related news, I also added a new Spirit to the Index who will become relevant in the coming chapters.
     
    Also, the Flash Fiction Marathon seems interesting! I'm going to try and enter as many as I can, though we'll have to see how that works out.
     
    Oh yeah, I need to pick new recruits for the Coliseum! Heading there now...

    What a Scream

    By Pahrak Model ZX,

    Okay so the Destral Cycle is powered by sound, which probably means that once it gets going it uses its own noise as fuel, and that sounds really efficient and green and cool and all but
     
    How do you start it? It must need some kind of external sound to start, right?
     
    Do you just sit on it and scream for a minute to start the engine?
     
    Imagine Antroz climbing onto this thing, about to ride it into battle, and just going “AAAAAAAAAHHH okay it’s running let’s go”
     
    Or if he got it back from the shop and found out the mechanics reduced the noise it made, so it crawls along at a snail's pace unless he screams constantly.
     
    Makuta Antroz coming down the road on a motorcycle screaming his gaseous lungs out, that would be equal parts hilarious and terrifying.

    Movies?

    By Pahrak Model ZX,

    Obviously the only movie that's going to be worth seeing this year is Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Dark Side of Dimensions
     
    I'm not sure why you would bother wasting time on anything else
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    HEART OF THE CAAAAAAAAARDS
     
     
     
    OR WHATEVER THE HECK THEY SAY NOWADAYS, ISN'T IT SOMETHING ABOUT THE SKY?
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    I'm kidding of course, that point has to be made absolutely clear

    I finally cleared Birth by Sleep's Final Episode. I remembered what happened from when I played the game before, but for some reason I felt it a lot more this time. I'll admit to tearing up at the end of all three individual scenarios, but Final Episode made me actually cry multiple times throughout, and I still want to go cry about it.
     
     
     
     
    Part of me is kind of embarrassed to be crying over a video game, but as time goes on, I find more and more that this idea is kind of silly. Video games matter to people--they give us characters who can inspire us, and possess an interactive element lacking in other forms of media that draws us even closer to these characters. I think I'd care about Aqua even if Kingdom Hearts was a movie or book or what have you, but I also think it's a little different since I was just guiding her through an intense boss battle knowing that my choices (or mistakes) would determine the outcome. It's an interesting sort of relationship between player and character--admittedly no substitute for relationships with real people, but much less intimidating and with a clear outcome. Er, maybe I'm getting a little off-topic...
     
    What I guess I mean is that I want to stop being embarrassed about getting emotional over video games, because those emotions exist.
     
    So yeah, I cried my way through the credits of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, and the next time I feel hopeless, I'm going to try to think about that final line. And maybe that's okay.

    Been sick since Tuesday night. It's made for an interesting finals week, haha...
     
    Not done yet, though. My school is doing this weird thing with the schedule, so I have one last exam on Monday. I've got a good feeling about that, though. I just need to finish my last assignment first.
     
    I'm really going to miss that class. Several unexpected topics came up, culminating in the teacher actually Rickrolling us on the last normal class day. Good times...
     
    Oh, but I want to apologize--I haven't been at the peak of mental functioning, so I want to apologize for any mistakes I've made or things I may have flat-out skipped. (I'll get to those tasks soon, I promise.)
     
    So the other day it was announced that an upcoming episode of Pokemon Smash would have a great deal of X and Y info. Today, we're getting CoroCoro leaks! Good things come even if you don't wait, I suppose. Technically speaking, none of it is confirmed yet, so it should probably be taken with a grain of salt. However, the source I'm looking at is generally quite reliable, and if it is official, then I am now full-on excited for Gen VI.
     
    (Don't think I can give the source on BZP, sorry. I definitely recommend looking into it, though.)

    Poetry Again

    By Pahrak Model ZX,

    New semester is...going...and some poetry has come up in my English classes. Once again, talking about poetry made me want to attempt some, and the result is this.
     
    Since I'm not the best with poetry, I didn't put a whole lot of thought into line length and none of it rhymes or anything like that, but I wanted to try messing with the style a little bit. Several letters throughout the poem have been removed or replaced with symbols that may or may not resemble the intended letter, and there are a few other miscellaneous format alterations here and there. I wanted to try bringing out the idea of "broken" just by looking at the text.
     
    I had also considered arranging the words in such a way that they formed the shape of a Kanohi with a scar in it or something, but I don't have the patience for something like that. Oh well.

    The entire point of all this multimedia storytelling is to sell toys to 8 year olds.
     
    As I understand it, not many 8 year olds want to research something that started before they were born and ended when they were 3 in order to enjoy their brand new toy.
     
    More toys will be sold if Lego takes the old continuity and gives it the reboot.
     
    (And let’s hope they use a healthy dose of reboot polish to give it that extra shine.)

    -As mentioned previously, the Inika Charge has been dropped and the Hordika Venom has been edited. I also said more Kanohi will be made available in Nuva! Specifically, we’ll be making the Suletu, Kadin, Mask of Emulation, and Crast upgrade-friendly. The Calix and Felnas are going to stay the way they are, for now at least.
     
    -Also, I decided to go with Canis’s idea for making Rahkshi Staffs compatible with Antidermis Infusion. In addition to buying the staff, you will need to pay 3,000 W to make it Infusion-compatible, which will change its designation in your inventory to “Staff of ___-C”.
     
    -One last upgrade: the Shadow Leech Partial Drain! It may cost 30,000 W, but with this upgrade your fighter will gain Shadow powers in addition to their current Element! It wears off after 10 battles, though, and there are some restrictions involving this and the Elemental Rahkshi Staffs.
     
    -Wraith suggested an item to let the Glatorian fly, so here it is: the Imported Jetpack! 7,000 W, as you would expect.
     
    -Credit to Canis, the Nui Stone will be available for any fighter to purchase! When used by a non-upgraded fighter fighting an upgraded fighter, it targets the stats they have an edge in and splits the difference like a Suletu! Not super sure about the price, but right now I’m thinking 20,000 W.
     
    -Another awesome but impractical item: the Golden Kanohi! If you can shell out 80,000 W and obey the restrictions, you can use this item to have access to the powers of every Kanohi you own at once! And yes, it breaks after one use. Not planning to make this one available in Nuva.
     
    -You’ve been asking for it, so here it is: the Adaptive Armor! But this isn’t an upgrade—no, this is an item that any fighter can buy! This armor will cost 30,000 W, and protects the wearer from any and all stat reductions, plus effects such as blindness, illusions, poison, and whatnot.
     
    -Last but not least, the Golden Armor, also available for any fighter to buy! This one costs 10,000 W, and when brought into battle it prevents any and all Rahkshi Staffs from being used in the match. Great for going up against an opponent who loves their Rahkshi Staffs! It cannot, however, be used to cancel out the Staff power being used by a fighter with an Antidermis Infusion.
     
    Well, that’s everything I had planned. Feel free to keep submitting item ideas, though!

    Wow.
     
    So, I had managed to make it to the Indigo Plateau in Virtual Red, and I was unsure what to do at that point. I set it down for a few days, but on Sunday I finally buckled down to grind until everyone was Level 50 (because Scorch badly needed Flamethrower and an evolution), minus Articuno who was already 51. Knowing that those numbers were still too low, I nevertheless made the decision to challenge the Elite Four and see how far I could get.
     
    Somehow I ended up winning.
     
    Hall of Fame:
    -Hana the Venusaur, Level 51
    -Scorch the Arcanine, Level 50
    -Gahlok the Vaporeon, Level 51
    -Sentinel the Marowak, Level 51
    -Aeroga the Aerodactyl, Level 50
    -Articuno, Level 52
     
    To celebrate I went and caught Zapdos, which was difficult because apparently Poke Balls can miss in Gen I, but I got it. Not sure if I want to do much else though. We’ll see.
     
    Now to replay either X or Y with the team I was planning to use for Pokemon Z.

    Asterisk Holder: Alternis Dim
     

     
    Origin: Final Fantasy II (character), Final Fantasy III (as “Magic Knight”)
     
    Was It In Bravely Default?: Yes
     
    Overview: Dark Knights are powerhouses who specialize in giving up their own HP to execute mega-powerful dark-element attacks, putting them at high risk if you don’t have a healer ready. Should you keep them alive though, they can easily wipe the field, so figuring out how to best make use of them is definitely worth it.
     
    Personal Thoughts: I guess Dark Knight and Templar were confirmed? This has story impact I must not get into here. Anyway! Since I have difficulty keeping my party alive already, Dark Knight isn’t really for me, except for when I’m executing final boss strategies. They learn a lot of great abilities: Magic Drain, Helm Lore, Physical Attack 30% Up, Adversity…there are plenty of reasons to invest in this Job. There’s also Minus Strike, which does damage equal to how much HP you’ve lost, and that’s fantastic to use while you’re waiting for your healer to recharge. There’s also the option of using Drain Sword Magic before using their skills—that way, while you will lose some HP upon attacking, once you hit, you’ll gain some HP back, at least enough to keep you steady until your healer gets to you. There was never much doubt this was coming back, was there?

    This obviously contains huge spoilers, since it covers the part of the game that wasn’t in the original Ruby and Sapphire. You have been warned.
     
     
     
     
    These updates might start getting more sparse now. However, once I get my Secret Base looking presentable, I'll post the QR code so you can all visit.

    Asterisk Holder: Minnette Goroneze (pictured left)
     

     
    Origin: Bravely Second
     
    Was It In Bravely Default?: No
     
    Overview: Cat Master works by, well…calling cats to the field! It seems this can be done in two ways: 1. Using the Job’s innate command to call out cats that will buff or debuff, and 2. Using cat food items dropped by enemies to call out cats that will launch an attack. Cat foods can also be combined for more powerful cats, though this ability is currently being rebalanced.
     
    Personal Thoughts: I feel like I really shouldn’t be surprised. This Job certainly looks to lend a little extra silliness to the game, and I’m usually a fan of silliness in my JPRGs. Not to mention it does actually sound powerful and effective. I guess we’ll have to wait and see if there’s substance beneath this weird appearance.

    A brand new Pokemon has been revealed!!
     

     
    "Magiana" is said to be a Pokemon created by humans 500 years ago, and is set to debut alongside Volcanion in this year's movie! We've yet to be given any information on its type or ability or anything like that, but still, this is huge! (My money's on Bug/Steel)
     
    It's looking like Gen VII might begin as soon as next year! Which also means that Pokemon Z is almost definitely releasing this year! And might mean Sinnoh remakes as early as 2018!!

    After taking a few months trying to focus on Red Joker, I’ve finally completed it!  There’s one more step in the Shooting Star Sonia project, but I’m putting that on hold for the time being, due in no small part to the fact that I really, really want to get Right of Law moving.  And on that note!
    Section XVI is live!  It’s a little short, mainly because it picks up a couple of loose ends and puts us in position for the next major event, but I’ll do my best to keep the ball rolling and get XVII out soon!  There are a couple projects I’ll be working on simultaneously, but Law is my top priority for the near future—the more I think about the things I want to do in this story, the more excited I get, and I want to put that energy to good use!

    I have emerged from Unchained X...to change my display name to something Unchained X related.
     
    This is becoming a real problem.
     
    In other news, The Great Career Fair has wrapped up. Sorry for being absolutely horrible at hosting that, I have no acceptable excuse and realize that I have brought dishonor upon myself. I'm gonna take a short break but I still think I'll be able to run the next Technic Tournament around mid-May.
     
    Also I am going to try pretty dang hard to get RoboRiders Re:Start...well, started. Ideally the first chapter will be up this week. I should have a new chapter of Beyond Ruin up soonish too, I have the basic idea I just need to sit down and write it.
     
    Now that my progress in Unchained X has slowed down immensely I'm hoping I'll actually be able to get stuff done. An attempt will be made!

    I don’t really have anything in particular to say about it. The best thing was a certain character being promoted to Captain in the second-to-last chapter, that actually made me happy. Everything else is just kinda…meh.
     
    In all fairness it seems like Jump cancelled the series, so…maybe it wouldn’t have been quite as bad otherwise…haha, yeah, it probably would’ve.
     
    Well anyways that’s one chunk of my life over, time to watch better anime.

    So, D23 announced that Kingdom Hearts III will have a world based on Big Hero 6! Apparently it will take place after the movie, and the "original Baymax" will be possessed by darkness? I haven't seen the movie so I don't fully get it, but the artwork looks awesome, and since they seem to be working with the original creators, this might be the first instance of Kingdom Hearts actually providing a canon sequel to a thing...maybe. If so that would be really cool.
     
    Now I need to find a way to watch Big Hero 6. I've decided that I'm going to watch every movie that gets announced for KHIII--I finally saw Tangled, and I'm thinking I may as well rewatch Hercules too. If the BH6 world is going to be after the movie, then I really, really need to watch it.
     
    Also there was some KH stuff getting into Disney Infinity! People at the Expo got a disc thing to unlock Mickey KHII costume, and apparently the Kingdom Key is the "Ultimate Unlock" of 3.0, whatever that means. This is really cool, but not enough to make me buy Disney Infinity just yet; if they continue to add KH stuff then I might have too, though.
     
    Was kind of hoping for Unchained X news, but it's releasing in Japan next month so it's no big deal.

    It took longer than I was hoping, but now I have a rough draft for the first chapter of Divine Strength! If you'd like to check it out, here's the link.
     
    This shows a regular day for the Queen of Light--not the one from the Prologue, but her successor. This is the Queen of Light we'll be following for the main story. I wanted to get a feel for how she runs her queendom, Bivor, and try to refine her personality in general.
     
    We also get a partial glimpse at the Queen of the Sea through telepathy. The telepathic waves are Queen-exclusive, with their Crowns acting as both transmitter and receiver; Light and Sea exchange them much more frequently than is normal due to their close friendship, so their usage should not be considered as a standard. (There's only one exchange in Chapter 1, but Chapter 2 begins with multiple back and forth waves.)
     
    Don't worry, the plot moves forward a bit too. Light's objective at this point is to take a look at Sea's investigation of some strange occurrences, which leads her to discover a very good reason to get involved further. But you'll have to read it to get a better idea.
     
    I won't be posting up each and every chapter as I go, but this early in the game I will be posting a lot. As for Chapter 2, all I have as of now is the aforementioned wave exchange, which I will probably post on its own sometime soon; once I write the rest of the chapter, I may post it too, or I may just hold onto it. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.
