I'm sorry, but I find this statement quite hypocritical, Kid. You're the self-named Anti-Racist of DCW! Can't you see that homosexuality is just another form of prejudice people have created to discriminate others? It's something people can't help, they're born that way, and sometimes they're just as uncomfortable with it as they are. They didn't choose to be attracted to people of the same gender, but in real life I find it a miracle that such people can find love, and it's just as beautiful as regular couples! It's more amazing, because despite the odds, these people have found someone who will love them, and can understand their pains. And while this is more of my personal opinion, it was pretty bad timing for me to see that comment right after I read several articles about how gay teens are bullied in school, how teachers will do nothing about it (and are not allowed to do anything about it according to policies! They're not allowed to support them!) and how several of these teens committed suicide. It's not just something you can brush off as being disgusting. It's just as narrow-minded as racisim- you don't believe in superiority, you kind of believe in how disgusting it is before you take a broad view of the thing. Nowadays, there are no Ku Klux Klans, no Jim Crow, any racism is hidden, but now we've found something new to discriminate against, something new to hate. Homosexuality. Think about it that way, Kid. Homosexuality is the same as racism.3 points

Alright. This is just a crazy idea that my friends and I had. Please... If you read this, and you like the idea, DO NOT COPY. So... We're not to sure about the setting and such, but we were thinking in a high school. There's a... Club? I'm not sure how to describe it. There's four members... (At least.) Ears: Male. (Well, he might change to female...) A person who is very quiet and always listens to others. He's the leader of the group. Very honest, understanding, I think you get the idea. Mouth: Female. A very loud, obnoxious, but lovable girl. She's out-going, fun-loving, and never shuts up. She loves to laugh and enjoy herself. Eyes: Gender Unknown. (We're not sure which gender yet...) A person with very large eyes, usually sparkling. Looks innocent, but actually is kinda evil and wants... Actually, we're not quite sure yet. But I think Eyes will be an antagonist, but possibly a good character at times. And I don't think the others know that Eyes is evil... Nose: Gender Unknown. Has a big nose (obviously... XD) And has an amazing sense of smell. Always sniffing things. (XD) Oh, and Nose might actually... Well, as a joke, we're thinking that Nose smells. XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD These are just some of the draft ideas for a short and fun manga idea. Just the out-lining. Nothing's set in stone... Oh, and three (possibly four) of us are working on this. Ears is being co-drawn by my two friends and I'm drawing Mouth. (I'm most like her...) Nose and Eyes were both going to be drawn by each of my friends, but I have a new friend who might draw one of them... Who knows? Anyway, that was our idea. Please tell me what you thought~!! XD But seriously, DON'T TAKE THE IDEA. Thanks.1 point

The older by far, especially colour wise. A detective anime with flashy colours just seems weird. Besides, I prefer hand-drawn animation to cheaper digitally made garbage.1 point

I haven't seen M-11 in a while, but I do remember it being horrible on multiple levels. What probably bothered me the most was the Indiana Jones-esque plot line with no intent on showing us any mystery. The villains were laughable, the premise was a joke, and there was no mystery (which is bad for a mystery show). It is my #1 hated movie. To answer AJ M I'll explain why I personally hated Movie 14. Lets start... Wow... that became longer than I expected... Now why macguffins are bad without proper experience or skill to utilize. Basically a macguffin is a plot tool to move the plot forward, and it serves no other purpose. Now, in the hands of a skilled director or writer this means that the story will be either extremely interesting or at least engaging. So at the end of the movie you'll be content with the adventure or the story told as is... Hell unless they reintroduce the macguffin you'll likely not remember nor will you care. Sometimes it is even used in comedy like Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Many action movies use macguffins but the action is good and the plot is usually consistent. However you don't CHANGE the identity of the macguffin at the end. That is supposed to be the driving force. If the macguffin is a threat, then making it not a threat REMOVES IMPACT, and defeats the purpose of it. Really the more I think about it... the closer M14 comes to being my #1 most hated movie. Right now in the running are M10, M11 (obviously) M13 and M14. M11 and M14 seem like the two best choices.1 point

***** "Nero, was it really the best choice to just run off and leave them like that?" asked Chaos dubiously, matching his sprinting friend stride for stride. "They'll be pissed as hell when we get back." "Doesn't matter, I'm the one who knows how to use that credit card correctly. Therefore, if they are pissed with me, I shall simply refuse to help, and use all the money to buy Starbucks. You hear that?" snickered Nero right into the bug, causing everyone on the other end to either roll their eyes or glare. Glaring seemed to be the popular option. "Sometimes I wonder if he's just trying to annoy us," muttered Misaki, grumbling under her breath. She liked Nero fine, but he was starting to get a bit too bold and daring. Nope, the funny, whiny, overly dramatic, happy-happy Nero was more to her preference. It was like he had taken over in less than a week. "He's just trying to lighten the atmosphere... I think," said Aeyra unconvincingly, drawing a small chuckle from Chelsea. "I wish he'd worn an earpiece though.. So we could talk to them." "I'm guessing he didn't want to listen to our complaints," sighed Pyre, who was tense waiting for the news on Mark. "He'd just turn the stupid thing off." "Perhaps..." said Tsukiko, peering over Chelsea's shoulder to watch the prison appear closer and closet on the iTouch screen as Nero approached. "He must be pretty desperate to go alone with Chaos though... Why else would he voluntarily use bugs? They're like an invasion of privacy." "He could turn them off if he wanted to though," noted Aeyra, recalling Nero's words. "He said he can disarm them at will." As if at her command, the screen suddenly went black and everything was silent. "Please tell me all that happened was that he disarmed them." ****** Luckily for everyone, that was the case. Nero's true intentions of bringing out Chaos was to share the secret he'd hidden for ten years, a memory that threatened to explode within him. It was just about impossible to find time alone to talk to his best friend- and even then the chance of being overheard was tremendous. And as for disabling the bugs- who ever said Nero would play fair. "Nero, did you just turn off the camera and mike?" asked Chaos curiously, neither mad nor happy. "Yup." "Why?" Chaos's blue eyes shone with concern. Everything Nero did had a reason- and there was something simply burning behind all that verdant emerald green. "I wanted to tell you. My past. Ever since John brought it up, I couldn't help but remember it, all that blood, the knife, the guns, the everything." Nero felt tears at the corners of his eyes. I will not cry... he told himself strongly. He blinked hard, clearing his vision of the mist. "Take as much time as you need, buddy. You asked me out here because I'm your best friend and you know I don't give a damn about rescuing Mark, right?" Chaos gave Nero a comforting smile. Nero was there for all his breakdowns, a solid pillar to lean against. He going to be Nero's pillar asking as the younger boy needed him. "Well, I've manages to figure out finer details over the years, but here's the deal. I was born to a wealthy family, and my parents were world-class scientists in the fields of weaponry, and essentially physics as well. Apparently, I showed great talent for developing weapons at a very young age, I was also adept at planning, had a very high intelligence, and what was best for the Organization, so, so young." Nero shook as they approached the jail, the memory of blood's rusty scent, the screams, the dark men who charged into his house. "It was just after my parents had tucked me in- I was about to fall asleep when I heard my mother scream, and my father's yell, and the tumult of pained screeching that came after. They were shooting my parents, Chaos. They were torturing them for fun." Chaos pulled Nero behind a few bushes, hiding themselves from sight. He patted his friend awkwardly on the head, a gesture for him to know he was still there as Nero told his story. "I got out of bed and headed for the first floor, and in the kitchen were the bodies of my mother and father, both so mauled, mangled, and bloody that I could hardly recognize them. There were men jeering at their corpses, men in black with masks over their faces, sneering as they faced me. Even then, I knew immediately that they had killed my parents. And at five years old, I felt the need to vengeance. And.... I massacred them. "There was a knife in my father's hand, and I picked it up as one of the men tried to grab me. I stabbed him in the arm, the leg, the stomach, everywhere I could reach, and he keeled over, dying. I could feel that sticky, warm, blood all over mr, my father's blood on the knife handle, the blood splattered all over my body when it spurted out from the man I'd murdered. They were all so horrified. But I didn't stop there. I didn't stop there." Nero saw that red haze covering his eyes all over again, that crimson shroud of hate that told him to kill, to kill, to kill. "I stabbed every last one of them to death. My white pajamas were soaked in red, the tiles didn't have a single spot where blood didn't cover it, the floor was sticky and warm, and I just stood there, looking at what I'd done. "Then I just broke down and cried, collapsing into that puddle of blood next to my parents, holding their hands until I fell asleep, and when I woke up the next morning, I was at the Organization HQ. I didn't learn until later they sent the people to kill mom and dad. They praised me, and I thrived on the things they taught me. I was just a five year old kid. But I was, and am, a monster, Chaos. I see it in my dreams all the time, holding that knife, every last one of you bleeding out in front me, I see my parents, eyes cold with death, their blood on my hands, and I hardly even sleep just so I don't have to see it." Nero was crying now, holding Chaos's collar, and sobbing into his friend's shoulder. "Chaos, what do I do?" "I don't know, Nero, but I'm glad you told me. You needed that out of your system," assured Chaps gently, holding still as his friend's trembling rocked through his body. "It's going to be fine. You're not a monster, you just wanted revenge, like I want revenge for Laela. Don't be ashamed, Nero, and don't be afraid." "But I can't help being afraid," whispered Nero, fingers clenching into a fist. "How could I?" "Accept it, let your friends help you." Chaos's eyes shone with his own experiences in grief, and Nero looked up, normally bright eyes almost black. "You did it for me, and I'll be here for you." "Thank you, Chaos..." ******** That's Nero's past for you. Very bloody, very traumatic. Somehow, I don't think Nero'll make it into the jail. Chaos'll probably end up doing it alone while making sure Nero doesn't move. What did you think of Nero's past? Personally, I find imagining it frightens me...1 point

I agree! \o/ those are words of wisdom. You sound so smart, and you're good at explaining things. Your speech was much more motivating and convincing than mine ^ ^;;. +1 rep for you!1 point

Okay, it goes like this. We all met up in New Jersey with innocent intentions. (excluding Mark.) The events that happened before Mark came in and decided to destroy us are kind of blurry, and besides, they're not important. Mark came in with the intention to kill us, I forgot why, but he attempted to murder all of us multiple times, we escaped, met up with everyone else, Mark saved me and Chelsea while our plane crashed on the way to Canada, and everyone else wasn't on the plane, they were on a van or something of the sort. In Canada, we had epic battles, we believed Mark dead, and so on, so on, blah, blah, blah, most important things you need to know now are the newest characters, Chaos, Nero, Brise, and Krev, Organization members who've joined us, Chaos has a girl he loved named Laela, but she was killed by Mark. Nero has a hidden secret he's never told anybody, but it's really dark. (I'm planning on revealing that... tonight.) Brise and Krev like each other, but are too shy to try and date in case it hurts Chaos. Right now, Mark has been executed, but we don't know that for certain. We're going to 'rescue him', and Chaos and Nero are doing the rescue because Nero literally forced us to stay behind or run to our deaths. Nero... sigh, what are we going to do with you? XD (BTW, Nero loves coffee, loves it, loves it, loves it.) If you're planning to add yourself in, here's a method you could use. Nero is recruiting teenage Organization members from over the world, so if you're one of them, we could meet you somewhere. Just use the name Akechi and you're set! But wait for a good moment, or tell someone and they can write you in. ^^1 point

Sorry, but now I'm completely confused. Right now Nero and Chaos are breaking into the jail where Mark is supposedly being held, and we're all watching them on a screen from bugs Nero planted on himself. I'm pretty sure Chelsea was with us then, and therefore you all are. I simply can't change all of my entries that much, Tsukiko. I was planning to just take a few names out and replace them, but now this is straying a bit too far. The flashbacks aren't really too necessary... What's important is discovering Mark's death and the message he left behind. And earlier when you said nobody can challenge you, I felt that was slightly rude. We're just trying to help you write a piece that fits in better with the others. All of the entries that came before were laid in stone, and you shouldn't be knocking them down. Read them carefully, if you're confused, ask what's happened, and try to make your storyline fit in. For example, you could have edited your library scene to make it on the train. I don't mind your flashbacks, I'm just hoping you're not going to have Chaos fall in love with you or vice versa. Chaos is the kind of guy who can only love one person their entire life. As that probably was not your intention, I'm sorry if that insulted you, but I wanted to tell you to try to make your additions match up with the rest of the story, because lately, they feel out of place.1 point

I've seen someone (I think it was HalfAngel.) who edited this already. They stated that the correct phrase would be "an S", but they didn't explain why. I decided to help explain that ^ ^. When the beginning sound of a word has the same sound that a vowel makes then you must write "an" before it; instead of "a". The letter "S" has the beginning sound of "eh". Which is the same sound that the vowel "e" makes when you pronounce it. Therefore, since the letter "S" has the same beginning sound of a vowel it is more proper to write "an S" than "a S". Other examples of this rule would be: "The two girls bought a puppy." <-- The word "puppy" doesn't have a beginning sound that sounds the same as a vowel. "Tommy found an apple in his backyard." <-- The beginning sound of "apple" has the same sound as the vowel "a". I hope this information was helpful to those of you learning English. Also, I just wanted to let you know that English is the only language I speak. Thus, I am very fluent in it. (xD If I wasn't fluent then that would be sad.) With this said, if any of you have any questions involving English feel free to ask me! Edit: the English vowels by the way are: a, e, i, o, u1 point

In general, I like the newer style. Especially since the drawings for the anime aren't as sloppy as they used to be from around 500-600. After 600, they started to get a bit better, more like the movies.1 point
