When a true hero's been beaten to the ground, he stands right back up to continue the fight! And with all the strength he's got, by dandy, he'll keep on fighting no matter what's thrown at him! A true hero refuses to let the past hold him in its vicegrip, to be hung up on previous mistakes! Why? Because he knows there's a battle to be won! A purpose to be fulfilled!
-stands up tall-
And for you, Young One, that never-ending battle is called Life! You fight every day to live every second of your life by your choice! And, oh, can Life swing some mean right hooks some times! But despite whatever is thrown your way, you still live on! Life has not yet defeated you! And by Poseidon, you still have the strength to live! To stand tall against the beast that is Fate and declare to its monstrous face, "I do not fear you! I shall not bend to you!"!
-holds out his hand-
Of course, the first step to recovery is to stand tall once more. Will you stand, Young One?

-sits up, clutching the blanket- I know what I'm going to d-do. I'm going to kill Z-Zack. And th-then I'm going to kill the Courier. Or I'm g-going to kill her, a-and make Zack w-watch, and then remove th-the offending body parts.

No. Do not let hate consume and control you. Hate brings only despair and emptiness. It is Fate's mightiest weapon in its effort to break you.
-clenches hand into a fist and holds it out-
Justice must be delievered from the Firm Hand of Retribution, not the Wild Claws of Destruction! To pay Evil unto Evil only breeds more Evil. Choose the path of righteouness, Young One. Let go of the past, and do not let it cloud your judgement.
Oh lawd I just pun'd.

OOC: Answer to Pyro's question in the RP Discussion thread.
Rape? The fuck are you— -quick flashback- Oh GOD! I DID RAPE HER! Ohgodohgod she didn't want to and I did! MY own sibling, Oh God! -hands on head, in shock-
Rape? B-but I thought Cloud wanted to frame him! I'm so sorry Cloud! I dun wanna be enemies no more! I thought you were lying! -starts crying-
I din' know! I- -slapped by the Courier-
YOU! Ended a friendship, you almost did. You should be ashamed of yourself! -to Joshua- I'm sorry! I din' know!
Relax, Courier-chan. He truly did not know, to him she was fully willing. I see no reason for bloodshed without cause. Cloud-chan? Zack-san truly did not know what he was doing. I'm not asking for you to forgive, I'm asking for you to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Sanity? Why would I need a useless thing like that? Now posting as Motor-Runner.Lawl, puns.
-Manages to control her breathing, still crying. She shakes her head and turns to Aquaman- Justice was always Zack's thing — or at least, he let people think it was. I have never been one for "justice," and I have never pretended to be. I will probably kill them both.
-looks at Zack with dead eyes- Why?

MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon AlchemistI... Really can't see Cloud recovering from this, and this is the lighthearted thread. I have 2 (possibly 3 or 4 depending on how you interpret the games they are from) omnipotent characters. Does anyone want to Cosmic Retcon this away?
-Hito breathes heavily.-
In our heart, Mr. Ando will always be a penguin.-Aquaman sighs and removes his hand from her shoulder-
In the end, the choice is yours to make. If I cannot change your mind, then we must let the future decide the results.
-puts his hands behind his back and looks forward-
...But remember that every choice has a consequence, and I shall not compromise my morals for you. If you strike out of bloodlust, I will come to their aid...

I'm sorry, Cloudia! -starts holding back laughter- This never happened! Of course! I had too much wine is all!
Oh Crap. Now he's snapped.
-crying in a corner-
Sanity? Why would I need a useless thing like that? Now posting as Motor-Runner.-Joshua summons Lancer to take Volkov away, for everyone's good since once he sobers up and finds out that Cloud had been raped... Zack wouldn't survive his retribution-
Lancer, Take Volkov to the annex.
Hai.
-He flash steps towards the still thankfully drunken ghost and gently carries him before heading towards the annex-
Shameless Self-promotion ho!Holy macaroni! What happened?
-Clippit and the elephant appear-
Would anyone like to help us? My pachyderm friend drank too much yesterday and now it has a bad heada- WHAT HAPPENED?!?
"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."

-continues sobbing on the floor, curled up naked in a ball-
