In the future, there will be robots.

Well, yeah, everybody who has played Grand Theft Auto knows that, but that's not my point.

In the distant future, overpopulation causes the human race to spread their population to other planets.  Their first populated planet was a slightly smaller one in the same galaxy called Mars, but scientists continued to look outward.  It didn't take long to find a distant solar system that orbited a red star.  The red star, which had been previously named Liran, seemed to be supporting a few planets.

A couple of ships with crews were sent out to search this system for a planet that humans could be able to inhabit.  After a mishap or two, they ended up on the fourth planet from the red star, which they called Talamenta.  Four continents were on this planet.  One of ice, one of sand, one of plants, and one that was varied between the climates.

Welcome to Talamenta.  Whether you be a native or a newcomer, we are glad to have you here.  Please, leave all ballistic and electrical weapons at the entry, as they are not allowed.

The eternal canvas of life is always there.  Every life is a streak upon it, but they are usually merely a piece of the larger art piece.  Will your streak be as such?  Or... will it make a change?

<a href='http://s14.invisionfree.com/talamenta/index.php?act=idx' target='_blank'>Your ship awaits...</a>

Please, though I know it takes quite a bit of time, read all of the information threads.  I took a lot of time to write them, so it'd be nice to know the basic rules I put upon the world will be followed.  Thanks ^_^

*cries*  You didn't!

I came here expecting a 500-year old zombie, and I get an eight-year old fairy.  And wow... that is a big fairy.  A foot is twelve inches.  Two feet would be about the length from your knee to your foot.

As Zalrin walked over to the water, Aquaria had done the same, sitting beside him and taking his hand in hers, grinning lightly as he spoke.  When he finished, her look had changed to be more sympathetic, and she leaned her head against his shoulder, sighing and starting her story.

"I, heh, well, I went back to pirating.  Oh, the life of a pirate is most daunting and exciting, as I'm sure you know."  Grimacing, she continued, "Especially without a ship.  I had finally found one, but it was rusted and old and it wasn't likely the thing was going anywhere, but... that's getting ahead of myself.  Like I said, I went back to my old life of raiding and pillaging, holding people at swordpoint as they handed over anything that was valuable.  I hate doing it, but... I didn't really have a reason to stick around anymore after I thought you died."

Looking back up at him with adoration clear in her blue eyes, the Zora grinned a bit, "You're the only reason I've ever had to keep going, Zal."

Yeah, and I just have to ask... does it matter?  Aquaria doesn't really have a last name.  I might make one up later, if the need arises, but... what's the point?

((But he only did that because he's completely fine around Aquaria.))

Aquaria gave out one of those laughs (when one sees something they haven't seen in a long time and are just happy to see it) as Zalrin gave her the lopsided grin, but stopped it as he leaned in, relaxing in his returned embrace as he kissed her.  Afterwards, she leaned in and put her head against his chest, just basking in the feeling of being there with him, feeling the body that she had longed to embrace for nearly a year and never wanting to let go.  Through newly formed tears, she sniffed and gave another broken laugh.  "There.  That wasn't so hard, was it?"

In that clearing, she just stood there, embracing her boyfriend and wishing that she could stay like this for as long as possible.  Whispering, she went on.  "Tell me everything that's happened.  I just want to hear your voice for a while.  Then I can tell you what happened with me, though I'm sure it's less... morally right."

((Really sorry about this, Dudeman and Tosoto, but... I'm leaving tomorrow for a while, so I'm just going to make up for the absence.))

Aquaria stood up as Zalrin took a step from her, barely resisting the urge to run to him, to run away from him, to do anything but stand here, shaking lightly as her mind almost forced her into tears.  After a moment, she put a hand up to her face, holding that hand's elbow with her other hand and sniffing loudly.

"Z-Zal... t-the... Gerudos.  They said you were..."

Suddenly, the feeble attempt at resisting any urge she had broke down and she ran at him, tears running down her eyes as she almost tackled him, her arms flying around to his back and her face burying into his chest, a deep sob escaping her as she tried to pull him closer, to make up for the year of absence, the complete year of keeping herself an emotionless shell and ignoring any nagging memory of him.

Laughing lightly, the Zora looked up at Zal as she, through her tears, beamed.  Some random memory that popped into her head made her speak, and though her voice sounded almost broken, it had that slightly sarcastic tone she used to have.

"Why don't you just kiss me?"

YAY!  Aquaria's boyfriend finally showed up xP.

*looks around*  What?  Just because she's a pirate doesn't mean anything.  Just that Tosoto might get in trouble ^^

Aq just shook her head as Tim gave up on her, looking away as he rubbed his forehead.  Sighing, she shrugged and looked over at the other one again, who had just introduced himself as Tosoto.  Holding out her slender, yet slightly rough hand, she grasped his and shook it.

"Pleasure, mate.  Name's Aq."

As she looked at him, she got the odd feeling that he was watching her inappropriately, and suddenly felt uncomfortable, raising an eyebrow, smiling nervously, and shifting her weight to the other leg.

As she did this, a screech ran through the air, breaking through the crisp air of the forest.  Aq's head shot up and she grinned as the hawk landed on a treebranch, but her look quickly changed to one more of extreme shock and deep emotion, her hand turning cold and sweaty in Tosoto's.

The Zora quickly turned to the hawk and cocked her head, losing her pirate accent as her voice shook as if trying to keep from breaking.  "W-w-what did you say?  T-there's... n-no way... He's... d-d..."

Even though it had been nearly a year, the Zora still had not come to terms with accepting that her first love had died in the Desert Colossus, even though she had almost died trying to find him.  And as she had made her way back to the Gerudo Outpost, the sand-people had said they had seen nothing of her boyfriend.  "Where is he!?"

Without so much as a 'by-your-leave', Aq shot off through the underbrush along the river, stopping and falling to her knees as she saw somebody she'd thought long dead.

"Z... Zal?"

OOC: I don't believe I said it was a rule.  I said it's proper manners.

BIC:  The Zora gave the one called 'Tim' an odd look as he picked up the oddly colored eyepiece.  As she tried to repeat the word, it sounded a little odd, being so foreign for her.  "... Pimpin?"

But, as the other one spoke, she stopped paying attention to him and switched her attention over to the speaker.  Aq nodded lightly as he talked about the only way he could think of to get them 'seaworthy'.  After he finished, she cleared her throat and transferred her weight to one leg.

"Ye need ter get a boat?  I can sail one, if'n we can get one bett'r than this 'ere trash 'eap.  If'n ye also need it stoled, I can 'elp with that."

OOC: Wow, Dudeman, have you ever RP'd before?   Razz  It's only proper manners to not skip a person in the order things are done.  No problem this time though.

BIC:

"No, I don't 'ave a problem with ye goin' ter look at the boat."  The Zora looked at the one who had spoke oddly; in her mind, anything that could be sold was valuable (as long as it was carryable, of course).  But she stepped aside and let the two pass.

She smiled roguishly at the first one to pass, catching the implication he sent at her.  Of course someone had got there first!  Why else would she have been just getting off the ship when they had arrived?

Though she could not read his thoughts, the writer of this character has to elaborate on something.  She was pretty, sure enough.  The Zora kept in shape running from city to city and conducting raids, as well as practicing her fencing.  She ate well enough, there not being any sweets to be had out between towns and such.  <span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'>And then there was the fact that she thought he was kinda cute as well, though she'd never admit it, being a pirate and all.</span>

Well, not a fan so much as just a person who enjoys reading them I guess.

Well honestly, I don't like those either, but hey, crappy comics deserve crappy hosts.  ^_^ jk

 Laughing That was a good one.

Anyway, really good job on those comics TKGB.  I'm kinda one of those 'fans from afar' people.

The Zora gave a sly grin, showing off some brilliantly white teeth in the process.  In contrast to her blue-white skin, their perfect ivory was startling.

"O' course I ain't found nothin' interesting, mate.  But if I 'ad, do ye really expect I'd tell ye about it?"

[EEP that's horribly short ><]

The Zora grinned at the first to speak.  He didn't seem too bad.  At least he offered a peaceful solution to their little situation.  Sheathing her rapier, she shot a glare at the second to have spoken, a bit peeved at having been called a 'fishwoman', and turned to the first.  In an inviting tone, she spoke.

"Who am I, ye ask?  Har!  I be the most fearsome pirate on these seas, m'buckoe!  But ter answer yer question, I see no reason why yer blood would 'ave ter be spilled.  I was jus' takin' wha the last owner of this 'ere boat left be'ind, I was."
