   Beyond a Date for Christmas
Refi: Well, with work, and then watching Teen Titans and Chip & Dales Rescue Rangers (parts in French! WOOT!), and Bleach…not to mention some animes on YouTube (ie Slayers and Searching for a Full Moon) I haven’t really accomplished much this past week ^^; I did get Episode 6 of YYH Beyond! edited at least, so that will be posted in the near future! Oh, and last time I forgot to share my pic of what the Zerka symbol looks like:

Refi: so with that being said, lets check on how our dates are going?

Hiyono: I think I’ll choose Bachelor number 1!

Ryoko: But I wanted 1!

*they glare at each other*

Kurama Clone #2: *sigh* Now ladies…

*Hiyono and Ryoko death glare Kurama Clone #2*

Bachelor #1: Hey, it’s okay! I don’t mind taking both of them!

Bachelor #3: But that would leave us dateless! ToT

Bachelor #2: hm, interesting…

Kurama Clone #2: ~.~; I had a feeling something like this would happen… *to the girls* Perhaps the only way this can be solved is with a game of jakken…

*perks then Hiyono and Ryoko face each other saying “Rock, Paper, Scissors” Both end up with paper they snarl*

Bachelor #3: YES! I win! You two have scisors and I have Rock! I choose the second girl!

Ryoko: Hey! That’s not how it’s supposed to work! Picking us girls like we were…

*Miroku emerges from behind the curtain*

Miroku: Hello my lovely!

Ryoko: … *thinking* wow, this one kind of resembles Tenchi

Ryoko:*out loud* Okay! You got yourself a date!

Miroku: *opens eyes to see Ryoko w/ big ratty hair and huge ears*

Miroku: eh? Um ^^; yes… *thinking* …great…

Hiyono: Oh good, so I get #1!

Ryoko: Wait! If I don’t get 1, then you shouldn’t either! You get 2!

Hiyono: Who says?!?!?

Ryoko: I do! So you can get back at the Bishi that didn’t like your song!

Hiyono: Good point…heh, heh, heh


Bachelor #2: No…wait!!!
*Xellos is pushed from behind the curtain*
Xellos: Oh…drat…

*Zelos comes from behind the curtain all graceful-like*

Zelos: So where’s my beautiful date? ^.~

Kurama Clone #2: ~_~ She’s coming…

*rumbling sound in the distance grows and then bursts through the door; smoke clears and a timid girl hugs the door frame*

Kagura: Hello…I was told that there was someone…who…wanted…to *turns head in embarassment* ask me on a date?

Zelos: Aw, don’t be shy my beauty *pats her on the head* I would love to go out with a sweet innocent thing such as you!

Kagura: Really? *looks up with hope sparkling in eyes* Ah! *mood swing change grabs Zelos’s arm and starts spinning him in the air* It’s a date! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! *throws him against opposite wall*

Zelos: Woah! *flips into a smooth land to avoid impact with wall* I’m going with this crazy?

Kurama Clone #2: -_-; Go on CC, tell them what these three happy couples have won…

Sally Sue: Well…Andy AoiOukami and I found a great group date idea for those with low budgets! RISK!!!

Andy AoiOukami: That’s right! Each couple will be working together to compete against the others in taking over the world!

Sally Sue: This lets people learn lots about their partner and how well they can work together as a team, you see if the other per…

Andy AoiOukami: Girls, here’s a tip >.> please don’t overanalyze things.

Refi: Well, lets get them situated and started then we can see Megumi returning with Sano from their first date!

Xellos: hm…well world domination sounds pretty interesting, there is lots of damage to be caused there…

Ryoko: So when do I get to take you up on your offer?

Miroku: ^^; um…well…I didn’t know you were a demon before and…

Ryoko: *eyes turn red* WHAT????? *starts to spring on Miroku*

***We interrupt this dating post for a very special epiphany***

ME: So we don’t gots cable so my dad has been recording Bleach for me and this past week he came to visit and brought what he has so far. And along with trauma going on (which was really creepy how I could compare a real life situation that just happened a few hours or less prior to watching an episode o.O) the series got me thinking. After seeing the Mod spirit and how he was created and then ordered to be destroyed by his creators (along similar lines to the whole Sensui thing from YYH and the Shishio thing from Kenshin) I said to myself, “Self, that is really messed up and unjust. But of course the story writer who created the Soul Society is only human like me, and we all have imperfections and of can only come up with systems that have mortal flaws in them (not to rag on creators, that is bold for them to point out the flaws of society). I am so glad that reality is not unfair like that, I mean sure here among mortals, there are injustices all around, but not in heaven. Our God is a perfect God and if He were not so, he would cease to be God. It is also a good point why we do not yet have the powers of God yet because we may use those powers unjustly. This mortal life is only a step towards our own perfection where we can also become Gods and Goddesses. Our Heavenly Father has obtained perfection so he will never create a mistake like Mod and Sensui only to destroy what he has given life to. We choose ourselves what to become, granted for some it is harder to choose to be good like if one was to grow up without any good role models for example, but God understands that and takes what is in the persons heart, their true intentions. How great it is that we are accountable for what we know and so those who do not know will have a chance later on to learn.” And after finishing the last of the episodes recorded where we first meet the Quincy {well, find out what he is, I thought it strange in the earlier episodes that a guy was doing cross-stitch in public, cool that a guy would do it, but odd for an anime you know?} and hearing of their beliefs of killing for vengeance instead of cleansing I thought, “Wow, its wonderful how in real life we all have a chance of repentance. Thanks to the Atonement, both justice and mercy are satisfied {Aslan’s death scene in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe expresses it beautifully}. The Gospel is great!” I would like to bear my testimony that I know our Father in Heaven loves us and will not forsake us. Because of this he gives us a Prophet to guide us through troubles that are unique for our time (in hindsight, President Hinckley tried to prepare us for 9/11 even if he didn’t know that was going to happen, I saw this reading a talk he gave to me and other college students 2 days before it happened) so we can be guided still. I know that the Holy Ghost can help me with my individual problems, even if it is not how I expected to be helped. I know that my prayers are answered, in the Lord’s way because he knows me better than I know myself. I know the Book of Mormon is true and that it is another Testament of Christ that supports the Bible. In my Scripture Study class I learned of chiasmus and how they were unique to Hebrew literary styles of writing. They were not even discovered until recently, but the Book of Mormon was from descendants of the same people and kept that style. Chiasmus were not known at the time the Book of Mormon was translated, so how would a young man who did not go to school past the 3rd grade make it up? The miracles and blessings that come in this life are amazing! I know the gospel is true! If you have any questions or would like to know more (believe me, this page is relatively brief) you can visit Mormon.org or ask me! ^o^

***We now resume you to your regularly scheduled program***

*Three couples sit around a RISK board, all males wrapped in multiple bandages*

Sally Sue: Now you all can role to see who goes first!

Zelos: You mean we’re not done yet? O_O

Refi: Aw, Come on 2! Let’s join them!

Kurama Clone #2: But that would be intruding on their date…

Refi: Aw come on, look what shape is the table they are at.

Kurama Clone #2: Square.

Refi: And how many sides does a square have?

Kurama Clone #2: 4.

Refi: Very good! Now, how many couples do you see there?

Kurama Clone #2: >.> 3…but…

Refi: So nature screams that we join them! You know our team work and how you and I always see eye to eye we can conquer the world in 6 turns tops! BUWAHAHAHA!!! …opps ^^; *composes self* I mean, =^o^= We can be a good role model on how a relationship works to benefit all!

Kurama Clone #2: >.> *sidenote* We always see eye to eye?

*Megumi and Sano return bickering, Sano in bandages*

Megumi: You weren’t supposed to actually enter the Collesium Tournament…

Sano: Come on! I don’t get enough practice back in Tokyo, all it is is “he needs help, she has the flu, he has a broken arm!”

Megumi: Well I never! Going on a date with you was the worst idea ever!

Sano: Oh, well you think I wanted to???

Megumi: *sees Dating Anime Game still going* Oh hello everyone, we had a wonderful time!

Sano: o.O What?

Megumi: I must say that the first aid kit the colesium works wonders, with that I will be able to help more patients! >.> If this lug-head would let me use it on him.

Sano: I already told you! It’s just a scratch!

Kurama Clone #2: Welcome back, you’re just in time to choose a second date, you will be competing against 3 other couples to take over the world.

Refi: But what about us?

Kurama Clone #2: Does the table have 5 sides?

Refi: v.v No.

Megumi: Taking over the world? Why would I want to do that?

Kurama Clone #2: It’s a game.

Megumi: >.> So taking over the world is a game to you?

Kurama Clone #2: No…it’s a fake world; you won’t be taking it over for real.

Xellos: What’s the fun in taking it over the world if it’s not for real?

Hiyono: Oh be quiet or I’ll start singing again!

Xellos: *yikes!* Yes’mam!

Megumi: Oh, this certainly is rushed, very well I suppose I’ll choose Bachelor #1 for this date.

Zelos: Oh? I have a new date? ^_^

Kagura: Oh Zelos? Why are you so cold? *crys then mood swing* DON’T YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU!?!? *attacks Zelos*

Zelos: O_O *high pitched* meep!

Hatori: Besides, I believe she was referring to the bachelor she personally asked questions to, which would be the original Kurama.

Kurama: ^^;;; I hope I fair better than the other men here…

Sano: Well…if I’m not needed here, I’m going to hijack it back to the barn… *inconspicuously sneaks out after stuffing a few dinner chickens under jacket, shifty eyes the whole time*

Sally Sue: *elbows Kurama Clone #2* Great idea 2! That saves us money for financing another date for Megumi! ^_~

Refi: ToT But I wanted to play too…

Megumi: Oh my! *looking at Kurama*

Megumi: You remind me so much of Sir Ken!

Megumi: *embraces him* I’m sure you will valiantly protect me against the invading troops as we play!

Kurama: Um…well…this really isn’t that serious…

Megumi: And if they advance on us, we’ll capture their spies and I’ll give them some of this truth serum and discover their strategy and thwart it! ^_~



Refi: Does anyone care to see how the game goes? It may be difficult to write it out, but it’s worth the effort if it makes all of you happy! Or would you rather I put up an Anime Christmas Story to celebrate the season? There are 2 main parts for it, and I may break it up more. So between Anime Dates, Anime Christmas, or YYH Beyond!, what interests you most? See you next week! *waves*
