Man... People posts at 2 am... Whyyyy
7:50 pm here...
Lol. I meant weird as in not the usual. When a post is too long or it has a lot of italics/other formatting, it sometimes comes out in a more formal-looking font for whatever reason. I went back and fixed it with the “Clear formatting” button though.

Double posting, even when it's allowed, stings me.
Is this going where I think it's going? Kazu's always sleeping, he took a nap earlier that day XD
@Hecotoro You can respond for Vero right before she disappears if ya want. I agree with @ThAtGuY101 that seeing demons' memories at the end humanizes them.
And question for everyone who hasn't yet made a royal and wants to (anyone other than Clite, kyuu, Mango and I), are you planning on a Duke or a Duchess?

No it isn't what you think it is, my good friend.
I already told Onion this but it makes sense that I post it here in case there's any confusion. Sena wasn't hurtling through the air; all that could be seen was a slash, and she appeared when it faded (sort of like the assist trophy Lyn if anyone's played Smash 4, she produces a sharp, screen-splitting slash but you don't see her move). I added a sentence in my post clarifying this:
One more thing I should clarify.
Wasn't really a metallic slice... I just said that cause it's easier. The sound effect I was actually going for was (skip to 1:16:22 in the video):
Sounds more badass, imo. I'll see how I can put that into words. Next reply will be just Pearlan, as those posts are long enough by themselves and I'll wait for everyone else to react to Sena so I have more to respond with.
Of course! Thanks for all the help!
As long as I don't have to pay demon baby child support sounds good to me!

@Clite of Dragonbow it's not? I was preparing a post of Akane kicking him out 
@ThAtGuY101 why would you need to?
@ThAtGuY101 why would you need to?
@kyuukestu Will we have another Rairah vs. Jay? Probably not, since Phyra doesn't seem like the confrontational type, and Sena would dismiss someone with a snide remark rather than get into a petty argument. 
I considered it. I had a gimmick in mind calling Sena the thirsty blade rather than the blood blade, given her Quenchless Bloodthirst and fixation on only the male demon slayers, but then I remembered Rairah and Jay. Like, did I really want to do that to myself? You probably have a whole damn diss-track queued up.@kyuukestu Will we have another Rairah vs. Jay? Probably not, since Phyra doesn't seem like the confrontational type, and Sena would dismiss someone with a snide remark rather than get into a petty argument.
That’s... actually really good. And a missed opportunity
No need to fear me, I am but a harmless snake who couldn’t hurt a fly.
Though Rairah was a beastkin so that doesn’t apply.
There’s my diss track.
Grr. This part makes me cross and in a few posts you’ll realize why.
And I am the the emperor of the entire universe...
If it isn't clear by now, I capitalize "the Duke" when referring to Pearlan because he has a big D. Onion refers to Arashi with a little "d."
Our characters will probably head to bed right about now... though Sena's gonna climb to the top of a hill and do some stargazing first, where she'll find Ren's cave in the mountains and befriend him if that's okay with you @ThAtGuY101 . I assume @Clite of Dragonbow is holding off on a response from Shirade because he wants to also have something to say for Kazu, which he might not at this point in the RP (I thought sneaking into Akane's room would've been funny... but then again, you don't want to piss her off and ruin all the hard work you've put into the ship XD).
@5DigitNeb Did you come up with a character?
This is the post where it says Phyra has disheveled locks. Though that was immediately after the Final Selection, so her hair might've been temporarily messy from the battle. I can change it if you want.

Sounds good to me!
Nah... all what kazu needs to do is get the scented candles, (sadly he won't be able to get any marvin gay music) ,but he can still get some rose petals, maybe play a tune on a lute or something while wearing nothing but a smile... if that can't win her heart then she doesn't have one...
Given the last thing she did was ringing out her hair to get rid of the water, her locks could certainly be considered disheveled. I've no particular issues with it.If it isn't clear by now, I capitalize "the Duke" when referring to Pearlan because he has a big D. Onion refers to Arashi with a little "d."

Never mind, Kit's getting a girl after all XD

@kyuukestu I wouldn't call Sena a direct fighter based on this statement. She wasn't telling Phyra that attacking directly would be better in all situations, just that in this particular one it did her no good and the direct approach would've yielded similar results. Essentially telling her not to overthink things and ignore direct solutions in situations where her way isn't necessarily better.
You probably know this though and are only writing what Phyra interpreted. I'm just clarifying it here in case there's a real misunderstanding about Sena's versatility.

Yea, I've already pinned that Sena's a more tactical fighter based on what you've said in the discussion as well as how her breath style mixes in distractions. That post was entirely based on Phyra's perception, something which Sena is cementing even further since she's picking a fight lel.
Phyra would likely be quite surprised at Sena's versatility later. Then she'd factor it into plans in the future. Similarly, I'm expecting more assassin-esque moves from Kit, but I'm holding off till he actually shows them.
Is that what you think she's doing?
1. Kazu didn't sneak to anyone room. He can always just knock to door and wait for reply.
2. Sorry for holding, lot of stuff recently and I arrive here few times for like 2-3 minutes. It isn't for me enough time to post.

At some point. I gotta come up with the next arc. Any suggestions?
I'm okay with anything really *sips tea*Is that what you think she's doing?
Do you still say she's not picking a fight?
Very aggressive flirting Sena and Kit have going there...
Stay out of this Phyra.
I'll get back to you on that. I don't like double-posting, so be on the lookout for an edit to this one, unless someone replies after me.
Thank you...(Your welcome Ekans
But unfortunately I won't be giving Mango any ideas in this post either (yet). I was definitely gonna make some new demons, plus you could always ask @Hecotoro for more, but I'll have to think about whether another demon fight is the best idea right now. Don't want the arcs to become too formulaic, am I right?
@ThAtGuY101 What kind of traps are in your cave, or should I decide that myself? We'll do a lil' one-on-one between Sena and Ren at this point in the RP if everyone else runs out of things to post. I believe Ren was punching a tree or something the last time we saw him but you could easily timeskip him already being back in his cave.
No man made traps just natural ones like maybe a narrow walkway or a hole in the ground or stalagmites and stalagmites... your typical cave tomfoolery that nature created...
It would be funny if Arashi turned and...
Pearlan: If we were to kiss right now... would it be your first?
Arashi: no! It would be my 386th time!
Pearlan: what the f-
Arashi: now get over here!
Pearlan: HELP! I NEED AN ADULT!
Arashi: I am an adult...

Thanks for posting this lol, couldn't get Surprised Pikachu in the right size earlier
He only made two breaks between speech, really. One, when the bird landed on his hand and he had to put it back in his cage, and two, when the candles stirred and his tone changed. I've quoted them below in red, lol.
You didn't do anything wrong, I'm only letting you know that just cause there's lots of text between dialogue, doesn't mean he's actually pausing. The part that's in blue doesn't take up any time, so think of him introducing himself and the next thing he says as happening right next to each other. I only put that additional text in so the post is better-paced and doesn't just fly by with no buildup.
And that's the reason why some of my posts are long, and why one of them roasts @OmnipotentOnion for saying my characters like to monologue when that's just the text playing tricks on you
(Now, the Mystery Eater DOES like to monologue. But that's cause he's a psychopath, and they tend to do that sort of thing.)Don't want responses to be too fat and slow, but you also don't want them to be too skinny and bare-bones.
I had the ideas for a while... I just wouldn't post them cause I was stubborn about making new demons along with them. I'll hold off on that (again) though and just give you the other stuff I had...
Okay, so I don't know if this should be the next arc, but it's one that will involve all our characters. In some rural town/city limits/wherever you want it to be, there's a haunted mansion attraction which is full of scary traps, optical illusions, popup monster dolls, and other fun stuff, but there's an actual demon lurking about in there and killing people without anyone's knowledge. I think it's better if our characters do it just for fun, not because the mission took them there, so that there's an element of surprise and even they don't know about the demon until weird things start happening. Maybe we just got off another mission (can timeskip to having just completed them if you want) and decided to check the place out, split up into pairs (couples for shipping purposes). We'll all have brief encounters with the demon throughout the mansion, fight it off/injure it/get injured themselves, then it'll run off and try to kill a different group of demon slayers, until finally we all end up in the same place in some hidden final room of the manor where we do a boss fight. The Blood Demon Art can be something that alters the layout of the building so that we're constantly lost.
Another thing we could is a giant fair/festival/parade, something like the Chicago World Fair, where there's a serial-killer demon going around and killing people, H. H. Holmes-style.
Number 3, I'll be making a punk demon in a later discussion post that runs the streets with a human gang and blatantly threatens the civilians, or maybe he's a more shadowed figure who goes the "mysterious disappearances" route. I'll be posting more ideas but for now I'll stick with these four, because I don't want to make this message longer than it already is.
And #4. An LGBT-pride rally where the oppressed gays of 1913 are lashing out but they're actually being manipulated by a demon... or maybe it'll just be a happy social event where people are disappearing again. I'll flesh it out later. On that note, I've made the antagonist... This one's inspired by you, Clite:
Name: Shiragay Kyūksuiryoku
Personality: Shirade's gay twin brother who was separated at birth is just as kind, but he's super expressive and flamboyant. Unlike his straight twin, he LOVES eating human flesh. He only eats men, though...
Appearance: Shiragay looks like a young man (teenager). He has light blue eyes "bright as the summer sky (with rainbows)," black short hair to represent Ace Pride, a rainbow ribbon to represent the other colors, and orange skin that's either a side effect of eating too many human dudes, or spending too much time in the tanning salon trying to impress gay demon dudes. He dresses similar to his brother in a black shirt and a white kimono, but the shirt's made of mesh and goes with a pair of leggings... and he also wears suspenders for no reason. He's well-built and 6'2," as he should be, or else he isn't attractive. His lipstick makes his mouth look red, full, and kissable.
Blood Demon Art: He shoots fire (Get it? Because he's a flaming homosexual?)
Techniques: His fire doesn't actually burn anything, but it's said that whoever touches it falls in love with the next person they see and won't be able to focus on the fight. They need to get unstuck from their newfound love interest fast, or their life force will slowly be drained until there's nothing left. The more he drains, the stronger (and gayer) he gets.
Other:
- Shiragay doesn't need to eat humans to survive. It's enough for him to drink a small amount of human blood, but that's more of a fetish. He still prefers to swallow people whole. He can also sleep to regenerate strength, but he doesn't feel comfortable sleeping alone... He must drink some blood at least once for two weeks, or he will go crazy and bust someone's cheeks.
- No one (so far) has been Shiragay's friend.
Because he's always crossed that line. - Jk, no crossed lines except the one above.
Backstory: Shiragay has no memories of his human past, nor does he know that he has a straight brother. But he's passionate about his sexual orientation in a primitive society that rejects it and stokes the flames of homosexual anger against the oppressive majority, encouraging them to come out of their closets and unite as one. Society can't fight gays and demons at the same time, so it'll have no choice but to cave and accept them.
OR...
He's just a friendly organizer of LGBT rallies that draw large crowds where he can pick off humans unnoticed (I'll have to find a way to distinguish this from the Party Animals...)
@Clite of Dragonbow You decide whether this is a joke or not. It involves your character having a brother after all... (I promise we'll kill him quickly and painfully OR...

Fucking vore fetish.
I regret looking that term up...
Congratulations, you've been corrupted.
Nah... I was born this way... Though there are some things I like to carry eye bleach around for.
@E.K.A.N.S. i do love the worlds fair idea. The devil in the white city is one of my favorite books. I could see doing a mix of your first and second idea.
