Are you having a complicated life? Are your parents mad at you for reasons you can't put your finger on? I know the answer. We are all pulled between pride and obediance. Many of us are afraid of getting laughed at, taunted, or teased. That's pride. However, we don't want to be yelled at, scolded, etc., either. In fact, to avoid that, we try to make peoples' days, mainly our parents'... That's obediance. We gotta choose one side and stick with it to make our lives easier. I say obediance. What about you?

READ THIS:

It's too horrible.

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.
I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.
I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I did not have to always deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.
I am the person who is afraid of telling his loving Christian parents he loves another male.
I'm the one who can't accept myself.
I am the person who is ashamed to tell my own friends I am a lesbian, because they constantly make fun of them.
I am the boy tied to a fence, beaten to a bloody pulp, and left to die because two straight men wanted to 'teach me a lesson'.

PLEASE REPOST THIS IF YOU THINK HOMOPHOBIA IS WRONG. Do your part to end the hate and spread the love

I don't mind gay, lesbian, or bi people, but I disagree with the beliefs. However, that is no excuse for their families to throw them out, nor is it an excuse for bosses to deny them a job, or for friends to make fun of them for it. That is all.

Weird is good, strange is bad, and odd is when you don't know which to call someone. Weird is the same as different, which is the same as unique, then weird is good. If you are weird and proud of it, copy this onto your profile!

Racism is wrong and can often times destroy people's self confidence. It's a horrible and cruel way to treat people. To prove that we are all alike, try this simple experiment: Hold your hand up to a light of some kind. You'll see a shadow cast nearby. Now, have someone of a different race hold their hand up too. You'll see, essentially, the same image. Five fingers and a palm. Skin color doesn't matter when you get right down to it. If you are against racism, copy this message and my symbol for equality to your profile.

If you think that being unique is better than being cool then put this on your profile.

There are a couple authors I know personally, and one of them is Grimlock, the King of Stories. Check out his fics; I think you'll like 'em. I know I do!

Alright, I have several Original Characters, find some of them in the intro of my fanfiction, "Mugiwara Gorillaz': New Members".

I have several others. MANY others!

Here are some of them:

Zachary Afanasy -- My BLEACH OC, created for Grimlock the King of Stories' Bleach fanfic, Bleach: When Reality Ends (sadly, this fic has long since been deleted). A kid with good morals, but strong emotion (this is both a strength and a weakness), he is notable for his messy black hair and unusually thin frame. Kids in school would often make fun of him for this, sometimes accusing him of using drugs. As bad as that is, though, Zach has had a much worse childhood, having been abused by his father at a young age, until his mother finally plucked up the courage to call the police, who arrested him for child abuse AND use of illegal substances. Normally, this would drive someone insane, but Zach's faith in God is strong, and besides, he did find some friends, the first one being Orihime Inoue.

Later, he stumbled upon a strange crown that--get this--asked him to put him on. He did, because he had the unusual ability to see Hollows, and he could now see one attacking Orihime! Having learned to value his friends from watching One Piece, he donned the crown and gained unbelievably superhuman strength (especially unbelievable considering his aforementioned build), as well as a sword, both for his spirit. He soundly defeated the Hollow and saved his friend.

It turned out that the crown was a copy of the one that the Espada named Baraggan Louisenbairn once wore. That explained the superhuman strength, at least (well, that explained it to Ichigo and some of the other members of Soul Society; Zach had never met the Espada before in his life). The crown also granted him a Zanpakuto, with a Shikai and a Bankai. Grimlock King of Stories knows more about Zach, I think. If you'd like to know more, PM him.

Nogoroki Mugen -- "Mugen" for short, pronounced "MOO-ghen" (not "MOO-jen"). He is a Toon in an alternate version of Earth that contains several species/"races" other than humans. Toons, in this world, are man-made creatures that can bend the rules of reality (to a limited degree) in order to entertain others, though they can use these powers practically, as well. Mugen is based on another race of creatures called the Anansi (named after a spider trickster character from African folk tales). Anansi look very much like people, but with small slits for nostrils (as opposed to actual noses) and very thin frames. Mugen is different from them not only for his cartoonish-looking face, but also because his fingers and toes are square. On a different note, he has tangled, blonde hair.

His creator was a bit neurotic, and as a result, so is he. Still, he doesn't like hurting people unless they had it coming (and he knows when they have it coming) and he values his friends, including potential ones, above much else.

Recently, he ran into a girl without a name, whom he decided to name "Kunoichi". She turned out to have been part of a top-secret government project, titled Peacekeeper, which was discontinued by a man named Gilbert Rennels. He was a sadistic man, not much different from the Nazis, and he blew up everything and everyone in the base, except for Kunoichi and the Super Soldiers, who escaped (without their creators and mentors, much to their shame). Now Mugen and this girl are searching for the 15 former soldiers, who have assumed human forms and are scattered around the world, to find one remaining crime leader and take him down.

I'm still writing stuff for this character. The above information is not final.

Mark Zonith -- A character I made for a school assignment, at the time simply called either "Mark" or "Stringbean".

Here is his profile from the fanfiction forum, The Interference: Legends:

"Name: Mark Zonith"

"Age: 18"

"Gender: Male"

"Abilities: None at first, though he turns out to be an excellent brawler, despite his gaunt appearance. He later learns to use Magics, then learns how to use a halberd (which he bought from Radiant Garden)."

"Personality: A sensitive young man, though perhaps a bit neurotic. He values his friends, however, and would do anythingto make sure they're harmed as little as possible, emotionally or physically, even if it means he must himself die.

"He's rather animated, being inspired by many of the cartoons he watched, especially One Piece. He hates heated arguments among friends with a passion, and does what he can to stop the dispute.

"He's an insectophobe, meaning he's afraid of bugs, and is also cautious around dogs. In spite of these fears, he likes animals, especially reptiles.

"He likes children, though he's a bit iffy around most of the things children like, especially most children's songs. He also can't seem to wrap his mind around the thought of having a family and/or raising children; he admits he isn't patient enough, and he's disgusted at the process of how children are generally created...

"He's also a bit mentally unbalanced, and thus may sometimes act contradictory to his usual behavior. For example, he may try to pull a fast one on a friend."

"Alignment: Good"

"Appearance: Brown eyes; messy dark-brown hair; while at first he wears a simple navy-blue long-sleeve shirt, a pair of red jeans, and a pair of black-and-white-striped sneakers, his attire becomes more complex, as is fitting in Kingdom Hearts, consisting of a red t-shirt over a yellow long-sleeve shirt, a navy-blue vest, a pair of red slacks with yellow straps and deep, yellow pockets, and red boots with blue cuffs; last, but certainly not least, is his unnatural spidery physique, similar to Johnny the Homicidal Maniac (who belongs to Jhonen Vasquez)."

"Weapons: At first, only his fists, feet, and head. Soon, however, and as already stated, he learns to use Magics and then wield a halberd."

"Hobbies: Exploring different worlds, helping folks out (if he can), reading the One Piece manga, watching the One Piece anime, singing"

"History: For many years, ever since gradeschool, poor Mark had always been picked on for his thin physique. He became afraid to talk to other people, except for the staff of the schools he attended, who seemed to be the only ones to treat him like a person and not a freak. Even his own father and brothers looked down on him! Still, he managed to keep a somewhatoptimistic view on life.

"One day, his confidence and optimism rose greatly when Ling, the kind, popular girl at his High School, revealed to him that she was glad he met him, even giving him a sweet lil' kiss on the cheek! Also, he smiled genuinely for the first time in years; he hadn't smiled since his mother died. Still, many looked down on him, but he didn't mind.

"Soon, he got blown away by something he found on the internet: the possibility to go into your favorite game(s)! Mark had his doubts, of course -- the whole thing did seem farfetched -- but he decided that it wouldn't hurt to try. So he did, and sure enough, he found himself in Kingdom Hearts!

"Little did he know, however, that he had just sent himself flying into something bigger than the games had predicted. Something that he could never have imagined."

Not mentioned here is that Mark also came across a Devil Fruit (from One Piece) called the Scan-Scan Fruit. This allows him to find out about a person's history, abilities, strengths, weaknesses, etc. However, the more vital the information is, the more energy it takes out of him.

If you want an explanation for Zach and Mark's shared physique, it's a physical condition called Anansism, after the creatures who are always so thin.

Professor FA-Ronic Kaiju -- One of several genetically-engineered Super Soldiers for a top-secret government program, codenamed "Project: Peacekeeper", to help fight the Iraqi terrorists. He, along with his brother T-Ronic, were created by a Professor Ronic (yes, he named his creations after himself). One of the other scientists, Dr. Gilbert Rennels mysteriously turned on the others, including his own creations, Einon and Centos, and blew up the labs and the other scientists. The (now former) soldiers recuperated in the nearest hospital, and then, assuming human forms, parted ways to try to live in society, each one quietly hoping to avenge their creators (except for Einon and Centos, who went to hunt him down).

FA-Ronic took up Christianity, thanking God for creating his creator, his father. Early on in his newfound civilian life, he met a girl named Lucy, whom he fell in love with. Now something had happened that forced her to stay in a New Mexican hospital, so FA-Ronic visited her every day. The two loved each other in a beautiful way. Even when FA-Ronic's true form was revealed, she didn't react with horror or disgust; she was instead amazed. FA-Ronic still preferred spending time with her in his human form, but from then on, he decided to entertain her at times with the things he could control: electricity in one form, fire in another, water and ice in a third form, and plants in a fourth one. (There were two other things that he could control but didn't use around her: poison and bugs.) T-Ronic had signed up to keep an eye on the hospital's cameras and turned the camera away when his brother used one of his other forms, later replacing that footage with already-recorded footage of FA-Ronic and Lucy talking.

One day, however, things took a turn for the worst when two armed men entered the building and ended up shooting Lucy. This made FA-Ronic unbelievably angry. So angry, in fact, that a new form was introduced to everyone including himself: a raptor-like Dark Form. This form dragged the frightened murderers out of the hospital and slammed them against the door to the jailhouse. At that point, FA-Ronic started gaining control of himself and ran into a nearby alley. Nobody found him; he had escaped and changed into his human form. As he did so, he sat on the roof of the building he was on and cried for his lost love.

Now he visits Lucy's grave daily (again in New Mexico) and has gained status as a professor in animal biology. Nobody knows that he has more forms than just his human form. He's content with that; he doesn't want to fight anyone if he doesn't have to.

Soon, however, he's gonna meet some people who, by necessity, will bring him back to the battlefield...

I shall discuss his abilities and appearance in detail later.

Now, here's what I look for in a fanfiction:
