http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_and_Jonathan Just dropping this in here for you guys to mull over as an example of sanctioned homosexuality in the bible.
Explanation found. The link works provided you're on my contact list. A tad irritating, but no matter.
Okay, I'm trying weird stuff with Skype. To join the room, click this link. If that fails, (which it very well may do), drop me a VM or a message on here, and I'll add you manually. (At least until I figure out how to give others permission to add...) Also, the entire room may or may not shut off when I shut off my computer. Aren't learning curves fun? =D

Dropped character because cliché and boring and bored immortal bent on cruelty is so played out and trite and stuff. As fun as Red would have been to use, I'll take a different approach this time around. One that's less of a Beato rip off, and more of a Naruto deconstruction. (Also, I heard I may have treaded on a few toes in terms of powers.) Spoiler Name: Lady François (Fran for short) Age: 14 Type: ‘human’ Powers: Drastically lowers the temperature of everything around her. The effect of this is directly proportional to her hunger. At its lowest, it entails a noticeable chill when around her. This progresses to frosting over her immediate area, and occasionally flash-freezing anything she touches. At its worst, she unleashes a snow storm of immense proportions. (PASSIVE) Fran is unreliably able to channel her ice-related abilities. Any attempts could range from doing absolutely nothing to turning her target into a human icicle. She can also unhinge her jaw. Appearance Sexuality: Batshit terrified. Personality: Meek timid quiet scared why am I here I’m just a girl what did I do to deserve this please let me go oh god Bio: A young girl. A cold winter’s night. A vicious snowstorm raging. An argument with a parent. A rebellious forage into the forest. Her punishment? A frost-elemental sealed inside of her, and a forced wedding to the faerie lord of an enchanted mansion. She has made escape attempts. There have been oh-so-many escape attempts. None have been successful so far. Due to said events, she has tried starving herself to death multiple times, without success, for various reasons. Her true name is unknown. They asked; she didn't tell. They nicknamed her Fran. Other: The elemental beast inside of her demands feeding to be placated. This is best done through the consumption of live beings, preferably humans. In a pinch, however, regular food, or even ordinary matter will suffice. As the beast hungers, it seeks food for itself. This is the cause of the frost surrounding Fran. If it is not fed for a suitable period of time, it will ultimately be freed and devour Fran herself.
Just as a heads-up, you may want to re-read the rules.
I've looked around a bit, and our options seem to be Tinychat or Skype if we want voice/video chat. For YouTube, there is Tinychat, but that is unreliable, and there is Surf2gether, which looks hideous. We could go for something classic, like IRC, or even a text-chatroom. I can't see many Voxli clones though. I'm currently experimenting with conversations in Skype, as that's what many of us already use. My Skype name is harry_berger.

The good news is that any beta account will carry over into the paid version, so we're good. The bad news is that it doesn't look as though they're gonna do anything with it.
Last time you left off, you knew THINKING was the key. You did not, however, know how to use the key.
May as well take the Lady. Will be interesting to play. Will do skeleton shortly.
A permanent KH-Vids conversation in Skype is a better long-term solution. For now, We can use http://tinychat.com/pikapower
Oh, it's fine. I get it a fair bit online. :L

He was in New Zealand, not the US. Admittedly, hiding in either is equally pointless.
Seriously. NZ is an awful place to go to escape the US. If America says jump, we get on our knees and do whatever they want. He should have stowed away in Hong Kong.
This is a thing that is new?
Uh, doesn't that form have an enormous loophole? They can still take anything not on the list, even if you check off everything.
Acknowledged. I was being hyperbolic. They would not ignore it completely. It doesn't, however, cause sensitive data to be leaked, cause a notable amount of revenue to be lost or do anything particularly noteworthy. As such, it would be a low priority item. I'm merely discussing the effects of their actions. It does not matter whether they intend for their actions to influence the public, as opposed to authorities. Perhaps they really do expect the authorities to crumble? Either way, the outcome is that little harm is done, and the public rally around them.
The difference between YouTube and Megaupload is that YouTube does not openly admit that its business is that of aiding pirates, and they remove infringing material as soon as they are aware of it. They make every effort to help authorities, ban accounts after infringements, and go so far as to erase audio if it is copyrighted. When it comes to being in the safe harbour, YouTube is docked on a foundation of reinforced concrete. Megaupload, in contrast, gave authorities the run-around. They delayed removing material, and when they did, they only removed links, as opposed to the uploaded material itself. They openly state in internal emails that they are the middle men for pirates, and in some cases they upload and download infringing material themselves. They had a reward program, by which people could earn money for uploading content, much of which was illegal. They also charged money for Premium Membership, which, when the other factors are taken into account, is tantamount to charging for material that they do not own the rights to. The two are not necessarily mutually exclusive. By taking down sites, they send a message not to the authorities, who honestly couldn't care less about the sites, but to the everyday people, in order to raise awareness, and incite the peaceful protest you discuss. This XKCD comic addresses the point nicely. The experts know how insignificant the actions are, but the everyman is surprised into action. Besides, it's not as though Anonymous are attacking anything particularly important. No one uses the CBS site in their daily lives. It's not an enormous inconvenience. All it does is give the media something to shout about. It's akin to occupying a busy street; you inconvenience people, but it's nothing incredibly disrupting.
