"This was never the way I planned, not my intention.
I got so brave, drink in hand, lost my discretion
It's not what I'm used to, just wanna try you on.
I'm curious for you, caught my attention.
I kissed a girl and I liked it..."[/center]
quite the joke to you ,
[/color][/font][/center]"so, hon. welcome to the distorted world.
what's your name?"
"Rikku , nice to meetcha!"
"ey, that's pretty cute. how old are you, and where are ya affiliated?"
"Can this be the part where I lie and say I’m a very mature eighteen? No? Awww, poopie *pouts* Fine, just cause of the cute thing, I’ll be nice. Seventeen. Affiliated? I dunno, Gullwings? We’re Spira’s best sphere hunters, if that helps!"
"young'un, are you? well then, i can deal. so... how bout you and me go on a date?"
"Heeeeeeeeey! You don’t have to rub it in! I was honest and everything! You’re suppose to cheer me up. Ya’know what? No date for you! Don't even know if you're a boy or girl, not that I care~"
"aaand.. what is your specialization?"
"I’m whatcha call a Thiemist. Never heard of it? It’s Thief and Chemist made all smushy. Came up with it cause I didn’t like when Rin called me a Chemist. Makes it sound like I’m some old Maseter. Wait, can girls even be Maseters? Never saw any.
Kay, kay, sorry! Umm, yeah basically means I’m quick on my feet, will swap whatever you don’t have nailed down and can mix potions to do all sorts of things. Oh and I can totally brawl with the best of ‘em. What? Don’t you dare laugh!"
"cool, cool. i guess youre a little talented filly? i like 'em like that."
"You think that already? If you’d ditch the quiz, I’d show you things even your fantasies couldn’t come up with. *smirks*"
kissed me in your room ,
[/color][/font][/center]"and on to the second section! how tall are you, exactly?"
"Five foot two and a half! Yes that extra bit counts! Size does matter after all. You think about that~"
"ah, just three inches taller. hm. so, what's under your clothes? not that i wont find out for myself."
"Eh?! Oh!! I totally went to an... ahem, different place there. Whoopsie." *innocent smile*
"What do you think? And they call me airy. I’ve got a lithe, athletic body, and do tons acrobatics to keep it. Fastest chick in Spira, I kid you not! Now tell you what. Play nice and maybe I’ll let you have perk underneath."
"okay, sorry. let's talk about some.. non - crude things? what's your personal style?"
"Translation: boring stuff ahoy, just when we were having fun too! My style’s whatever I want it to be. Mostly I wear a bikini with a short mini-skirt. Yeah, not much I know. A year ago, everyone was sick of waiting for me. Use to take hooooooours. So, got an ultimatum. Either I spend time on hair or clothes. Solution: where less and spend even more time on my hair! Pop nearly had a heart attack when he first saw. No idea how he bought I was going swimming for three months. I think it was easier on him."
"hey, you look like that celebrity... what was the name...?"
"When you save the world, you’re going to be famous. And I did it twice, so that’s like suuuuper celebrity cred there! I tella, It’s awesome. Everyone wants your autograph; you get to party, kissing babies. Well, we make Paine do that. I don’t even wanna know how many respect points I lost coming up with that idea. Wait, where we again? Right! Names. Rikku. Hey! Didn’t I tell you that already?"
"right! i remember now. you look just like them. except better, heh heh..."
"Stating the obvious~ Fuf, E drehg ed sekrd ryja paah y frema caah cra ryt yho... yras, vih. Maycd cra'c vaecdo."
replied i love you too ,
[/color][/font][/center]
"soo, do you like or dislike anything?"
"Sphere hunting is pretty high up there. Loved going on adventures with Yunie and everyone. Gets sort of dull whenever she and Paine aren’t around. Favorite thing is general mischievous. Sorry but you have to earn details; tricks of the trade after all. I don’t like lightning with its bzzzzzt! I’m not scared anymore though! Don’t like snakes either or anything that slithers *makes hand gesture imitating snake movements*
Then there’s those thudee-snakey guys, who I still say only got together just to scare me. They’re scheming! Too much bzzzslitering *shudders* Can we move on, pretty please?"
"ohmyjonas, me too! wow, thats such a coincidence. so have any dirty habits or secrets?"
"Lnaabo… I can’t talk about those when the camera’s on! How ‘bout just the cleany ones and I’ll show you the others later, kay? Hmm, lemme think. Well, I do have bad habit of switching to Al Bhed when I’m nervous oh and I ramble.
I’m into pranks, you know, the harmless stuff. Like one time I stole Yunie’s clothes when she was in the shower. Did I mention we were at the Blitzball stadium? Hey, I did leave her those shorts she wears now! See, if it wasn’t for me, Yunie wouldn’t have style. I did it to Paine too but that caused an owie.
Secrets, well only two people have ever got me flustered. One Yunie knows of but the other… he’s hers and I’d rather not bring it up. "
"coolness, yo. umm. home dawg. anyways. describe yourself."
"Are you making up words?! Only I’m allowed to do that! Besides that doesn’t even make sense! You have to think of a word, add something to it then enunciate! Like perfectacation!
Anyhow, I’m free spirited, fun loving, and your delectable little blonde bombshell. I do whatever I feel like. Not really much on that modesty thing, gotta live in the moment you know? Little bit more bouncy then I use to be but it’s easier now since everything has settled down for the most part.
I betcha you’d never have guessed. I’m much smarter than I look. Give me a machina of any kind and I’ll pull it apart lickadee split. One thing’s for certain, I am loyal, sometimes to a fault. Not to everyone; girls reserve the right to be inconsistent after all, but to some. Usually plays into being stubborn, though I won’t butt in too much. Paine called me the blondest of blondes. I dunno know what she meant by it but I don’t think I like."
"like dude! we're so compatible..."
"E tihhu, E tuh'd drehg oui yna…"
a little bit insecure ,
[/color][/font][/center]"okay, let's rush through this. i'm thinking dancing? then, we can talk about rooms."
"Rooms? Hah, you’re the classy type. They usually aren’t as fun~"
"shh, if my boss knew about our secret romance... so. what's your heritage?"
"Could always invite him~ I’m from a place called Home. It use to on Bikanel island. It’s where us Al Bhed use to live but… we had to blow it up when the Guados attacked. Um… I don’t want to talk that. *slightly teary eyed*"
"wow, your family would love me! have anyone else in your family?"
"Nope, Pop would pummel ya if he found out you were asking all these questions. ‘sides him, there’s my brother, who’s a real goof and then my cousin Yunie. More like a sister now though. She’s awesome!"
"oh. sounds horrible. haha. anything else important happen in your life?"
"Hmm, where to start? Suppose from the beginning, though it’s sorta boring. I was apart of an excavation team, we were looking to salvage stuff from a sunken ship. Kept spooking my brother with ghost stories. Though strangest thing, when we blew are way into some of the ruins – what? I like flashy things! – we found this boy stranded there. Yeah, look for treasure, find a guy. Hey, could be worse right? I wasn’t complaining~ At first I thought he was a little out there going on about Zanarkand and his Blitzball team after we brought him aboard. Who’da thought everything he said was really. I wanna see that sleepless machine city!! Sorry, that part comes later. Don’t want to ruin it for ya.
Anyway, Sin came and he was washed overboard. Had to kick my brother in the shin to get him to look for him but didn’t turn up anything. Not much happened for a while, well nothing I was involved in. The nerve, going to Luca without me! I wanted to help the Summoners too, you know?
Finally talked Pop into lettin’ me pilot one of his Machina. Dunno why it took him so long. Found out my target was Yunie. Back then all I knew ‘bout her was she was my cousin. Can’t say I wasn’t excited about talking to her. Heeey! Don’t you judge me. We were helping Yunie and the Summoners. What right did Yevon have making them go off and sacrifice themselves? That… didn’t go so well. Wasn’t my fault! That boy I mentioned earlier, well him and Wakka attacked my subshipy and beat me up. Big meanies.
That was when Yunie asked me to be her Guardians and the days of Guardian Rikku started! What? Okay fine, but she did ask. Though we had to keep my whole being an Al Bhed hush hush. Wakka was not too keen about us. Thought what we did defied the Teachings. Phew, been a while since I thought about it. Spira was really about the Teachings then. Anyway, eventually we met Seymour, he was kinda creepy, made worse when he proposed to Yunie! Made even worser when she agreed!! I know it’s cause it would make everyone else happy but still.
Well turned out she found out he killed his father and wanted to stop him. Had to bust her out of Macalania Temple; we do a lot of busting through things. Eventually we ended up getting washed onto Bikanel Island, but I already talked about what happened there and I don’t want to get into it. So yeah, thing was, Yunie wasn’t there. She was kidnapped by that Seymour guy but we already took care of him. I didn’t like him before, now he was creepier! After saving Yunie, we found out Yevon’s Teaching was all lies. Still no way to save Yunie though and she wouldn’t quit her pilgrimage. Believe me, I ask… a lot.
So for a while we just continued on, par for the course, least until we thought of something. Turns out there was a way, but I still don’t really understand it all. So long story short, we sent Sin packing for good this time! ‘cept Tidus disappeared. Yunie was sorta lost for a while after that.
So! Eventually I got her to join the Gullwings. Yep, I have connections! That was a good year, maybe year and a half after Sin bit the dust. Backtracking a bit, before I convinced Yunie to jump aboard. I met Gippal. Cocky little jerk, thought he could one up me! Hah, haven't thought about him as much. No! You get no details! You know, I'd continue but really that’s more Yunie story. You can ask her. Oh! If you do can you ask her all these questions and more importantly can I watch? It’d be hilarious!"
"hey, look! we're done. so, i would ask you on a second date, but i'm about to explode. no, really. please step back."
"Heeey! You were coming on to me! Don’t you try and act cool, like it was all me! Get back here!"

rp sample.As Princess Ashe~
Her destination upon this present hour was unknown; in all honesty, time itself had begun to escape the contemplations of the Princess. She could only speculate when it was she had commissioned herself a decoy, and taken fleet aboard the Queen Fury, the vessel under the command of her uncle. Although the realization of her departure meant the likelihood of her nemesis’ pursuit; unless her assumptions of his character were mistaken, the entirely of her uncle’s kingdom was doomed, alongside her sister who had remained had she not taken to the sea.
In contrast, if what she envisioned were to come to pass, those present would be doom to befall upon a watery grave. In essence, the fault of death of many would weigh on her shoulders, regardless of the outcome and all she was capable of doing was to await the result.
This would not be the means to trouble her soul, no, what had bemused her was size of the militia aboard the ship, when only a handful at best, if even, were of a prerequisite. They knew the probability of what was to come, yet chose to do so without protest? It was baffling to her, more so due to them being vassals under the governance of her uncle and many mere rouge recruits. Her depression and refusal to consume food of any kind would arouse suspicious of the crew, leading to the captain inquiring of her person,
“Milady what it is that has mounted your distress?” For a lengthily interval she would maintain silence, having deviated from reality as her thoughts clouded her mind. “Whilst I am aware the unavoidable causalities of war, I cannot come to comprehend the necessity of so many aboard. Certainly they know of the fate to potentially transpire” she eventually responded, attempting to conceal her worrisome tone behind a stoic approach.
“Aye, they and I are aware” he replied, a momentary grin emerging prior to his continuation. “Cast your gaze upon those around you, milady. Each and everyone has sworn to serve the Damaslcian name, be it the glorious king, our liege magistrate or the lady Ashe, heir apparent to the throne. It is all we require; even if damnation be our just reward!” His inspiring response ultimately would suffice, concluding it was human to be concerned for those under her charge. That was reason enough to distant herself from the subject and the incessant guilt she had allowed to consume her.
It was odd, nary a word had been spoken by any of the possibility of their thwarting an attack, or that the course they had embarked upon in their escape from Genbu would be successful. Perhaps, this was to avoid a falsified sense of security, depressing as it was, the likelihood of such a result would be nothing beyond a miracle. By a twisted wave of irony, Ashe heard the abrupt shout of the sentry exclaim the arrival of the Milities Byakko fleet upon the ocean’s moon.
Preparations for battle commenced within the instant, the recognition the Queen Fury could nay outrun her pursuers, being built for combat, not haste. Unfortunately, a single ship against a fleet was odds even Genbu’s most exquisite warship could not emerge from as the victor.
In what felt like mere moments, the adversaries would collide with one another, the Fury unleashes her cannons as she passed by, her desk the field of bloodstained carnage. The Princess would grip the handle of her Dynasty Blade, the sword fastened on her back, only to have her arm seized, the captain well aware of her brash demeanor. “I cannot allow your interference, milady. You must beckon haste, and quit this vessel.” He informed, giving a instructive nod to others passing by. Ashe pulled loose her arm, eyes stern with a passionate flare.
“You would have me hide, burdened to witness your demise? I will no…“ “Better you reside to speak of this tale to your grandchildren then feed the beasts of the sea!” he interrupted, matching her gaze with his own, adamant in his position. Knowing her character well, he commissioned soldiers to mind her way to a lifeboat below, pressing to maintain a watchful eye, before venturing atop the ship.
The conflict was futile, the inevitable decided the moment the l’cie led fleet came upon them. Each moment knights of the grand Genbu fell, the Queen Fury, being torn asunder by the beasts at their command. In this ensuing chaos, the engine would the ship would ignite, secreting the ship in a rapid glow of amber, as the ship and the majority of her crew perished.
Only by chance of fortune was the princess saved, the impact of the explosion propelling her away, long before the ship wound founder. Eventually she would wash along the shores of Suzaku, clothing in tatters and noticeably burns, and injuries riddled on her body. Baffling as it were, the Dynasty treasure, remained firmly encased in its sheathe mounted on her back. How the girl was able to maintain float with what was of mammoth weight was a mystery all in of itself. Through blurred vision, she only would see waves brushing against her as consciousness became to fade.
