THIS IS A FREE FORM ROLE PLAY, IT DOESN'T USE ANY GAME SYSTEM, THERE ARE NO STAT BLOCKS.

By "Homebrew", I'm fairly sure he meant "make up."

Yeah, sorry, I meant "make up". D&D was on the brain.

[Hiro Protagonest]

Yeah, sorry, I meant "make up". D&D was on the brain.

Then why wouldn't you treat it as a regular ghost?

[BladeofOblivion]

Then why wouldn't you treat it as a regular ghost?

Changed Fluff. You know, so it doesn't magically scan the same as a Zombie. And it doesn't haunt people.

Kurama walked swiftly down the stone halls. The sun was set a bright red glow on the horizon. Kurama was glad that the work was finally over. He could finally speak to the person he had been thinking about seeing all day.

He spots the door to the infirmary just ahead and jogs the last few steps to it. As he reaches out to take the door handle, the door suddenly opens and he finds a firm strong hand pushing him back.
"Oh no you don't, lover boy."

Kurama blinked in surprise.
"Oh, uh... Rabbit? What are you... uh, I came to see Viola..."

Rabbit raised and eyebrow, her expression unreadable.
"Of course you are. Practically everyone here knows about you two."
She then closes the door behind her, then turns to face him.

Kurama glances back and forth between the Rabbit and the door behind her.
"Oooookay...? But why are you blocking my way to see her?"

Rabbit crossed her arms, smiling slightly.
"I'm just following orders."

Kurama stared back at her. The worst possible scenario was playing in the back of his mind.
"You mean... I can't see her anymore?..."
Rabbit didn't answer. She just stood there with her arms crossed, obviously enjoying herself.
"Did Mordokai set you on this?"

Rabbit looked over her shoulder at the door.
"Actually, these orders are from Viola."

Kurama stared in shock.
"She... she didn't want me to see her? But... But why?...
His world seemed to be turning upside down.

Rabbit rolled her eyes.
"My goodness, Kurama. Its a girl thing that I thought you would've picked up on by now. However, Viola seems particularly stern on the issue."

Kurama felt as if several large question marks were removing themselves from his skull and hovering around him. What was this "Girl Thing"? Why did Viola not want him to see her anymore?
"B-But... I-"

Just then, Viola's voice was heard on the other side of the door.
"Okay, Rabbit. I'm done. You can let him in now."
Amused, Rabbit uncrossed her arms and turned to open the door for Kurama.

Kurama looked at her confused.
"What's going on?"

"Isn't it obvious? We were getting Viola into some clean clothes. She heard you coming and had me stand guard. She also wanted me to add you were a pervert."

Kurama felt a flicker of annoyance.
"Why didn't you tell me that from the start?!"

"Because it was fun watching you think that it was the end of your world."
She chuckled.
"Anyways, enjoy your quality time together. But don't get too into it."
She then turned and walked off down the hall. Kurama stepped forward through the door, closing it behind him.

He turned to look at Viola, who was trying to sit up better. The first thing he noticed was she was using her left arm to help her move. This was the first time she had been able to do so since the injury. He hurried over to be by her side.
"So, you can move again?"

Viola grit her teeth as she finishes adjusting her position. Breathing heavily, she looks up at Kurama.
"Barely. Hurts like heck, though."
Kurama looks around for his chair, only to find a white shirt and a pair of pants that had a leg hanging off the chair dumped upon it.
"Oh, sorry. I just flung them aside when I was changing."

Kurama picks them up and throws them over into the corner before sitting down.
"So, how are you doing?"

Viola sighs.
"Dying of boredom in here with nothing but the pain in my arm to keep me company."

Kurama smiled.
"So, apart from being able to sit up, nothing has changed."

Viola shook her head.
"Nope."

Kurama takes a moment to consider what to tell her.
"Well, there have been quite a few events happening in the mean time. First off, Lix hates you."

Viola looks at Kurama.
"She does? Why?"
But before he could speak, she rolled her eyes.
"Oooooh. Because I killed Grim. And telling her that I saved the academy while doing so isn't helping?"

"Nope."
Viola sighs.
"In other news, Mordokai is leaving."

Viola looks back Kurama.
"He is? Why?"

"A new paladin is about to hear their call. They are apparently over on the eastern continent."

"Do we know anything about them."

Kurama half smiles.
"No, we don't. Only Mordokai and Nil are able to figure out when the crystals mature. I've always wondered what its like..."

He stares off into the distance, thinking about everything.
"Do we at least know if its a boy or girl?"

"Not even something as simple as that. Though if it is a girl, she will certainly be less shy when changing then you."

Viola raises and eyebrow.
"What do you mean by that?"

Kurama winks at her.
"Tight and simple clothing is their fashion over there. I'm sure she would love to get out of those clothes."

Viola glares at Kurama's daydreaming.
"It could be a boy, you know."

"I know. But I can still hope, right?"
He chuckles as her good hand slaps him across the shoulder.
"I'm kidding! I'm kidding! At least I know you're the jealous type."
He dodged out of range from her next blow, still smiling widely. He couldn't tell her that the look she was giving him was only adding to his amusement.
"Heh heh... So, uh... Is there anything I could do for you?"

Viola still glared at him.
"Well, yes. I am starting to get hungry, as a matter of fact."

Kurama nodded quickly.
"Right! Food! I'll go get us some."
In a flash, Kurama had left the room, closing the door behind him. Viola could see his footsteps hurrying down the hall, fading into the distance. When she couldn't sense them anymore, she slowly smiled.

[Hiro Protagonest]

Not sure what to think of this.

But you're definitely going for a romance between them!

[Saint Nil]

I like it. Despite being paladins, it shows how they are first off people. They have quirks, and more importantly strong emotional connections to one another. Not all chapters need to involve deamons. Or crazy Lixpires...

[Lix Lorn]

Woooo I got mentioned. <3

I'm glad viola's getting better. Also nice to see Rabbit with a sense of humour.

[Viera Champion]

Oh my... You seemed to have nailed my personality excellently... Even though this is just a story and Kurama is only a character portayel of me.

[BisectedBrioche]

Daww, she's a tsundere.

[Partysan]

I love that human side of rabbit. And great chemistry again, Silver.

[Grim ranger]

Heh. Nice to see that Grim has at least nominal impact on the plot even after he has kicked it for good. Who wants to guess that the sneaky blackguard left something behind just in case he got murderized?

...Okay, I admit that it is pretty long shot. Still, there's no stopping Epileptic Trees

It is also nice to see that Viola and Kurama start to get some character development again.

[Lix Lorn]

Don't worry. I'll bring you back soon.
If I just sacrifice every paladin, I can bring you back. Equivalent exchange.

[super dark33]

But who is the hot,manly,strong,smart and mostly humble person who could weaken the academy enoug for you to suceed ?

[Lix Lorn]

...Recaiden?

[Hiro Protagonest]

...Recaiden?

Probably.

[super dark33]

and who is the manlier, stronger,smarter and much more humble person who made him what he is now?

[Recaiden]

But who is the hot,manly,strong,smart and mostly humble person who could weaken the academy enough for you to suceed ?

You're too kind. But I won't stop at weakening the academy. I will tear it all down, and remake it in my own image, purely because they challenged me.

Of course, we'll need some other source of support for an Assassin's Academy.

[Hiro Protagonest]

and who is the manlier, stronger,smarter and much more humble person who made him what he is now?

Uh... God?

[Recaiden]

Uh... God?

Please. I am a self-made being.
I work with Sarudark because his poison does make it easier, but even paladins have to remove their armor sometimes.

@V: It's a knife. There are hundreds like it.

[super dark33]

dont forget that small dagger of yours,wo do you think made it? pnina rozenblum? no! i did!

[Hiro Protagonest]

No, God did.

[BladeofOblivion]

Don't worry. I'll bring you back soon.

But then all you'll get is Pride! (The Homunculus )

[Lix Lorn]

Ohnono, that would be sacrificing one. If I sacrifice them all, I will have the stone, and alchemy will bend to my whim.

[Hiro Protagonest]

Ohnono, that would be sacrificing one. If I sacrifice them all, I will have the stone, and alchemy will bend to my whim.

Alchemy?

I think you mean academy.

[Lix Lorn]

Nonono.
I sacrificed that.

[Viera Champion]

Alchemy?

I think you mean academy.

I think not. With that many FMA references it's alchemy or die. No academy in that equation.

[Tychris1]

So we can just request for a character? Alright cool, though mine would be a Death Knight (Dark Paladin/Fallen Paladin that kind of stuff). Able to raise the dead via playing an instrument (Axe guitars come to mind). Only so that we can have someone who wields the THE POWER OF ROCK!

[Lix Lorn]

...
I Approve.

[Tychris1]

Should I write down anything else (Such as the 4 back up, which I have nicely hidden inbetween the part of my brain that tells me how to make Pb and J sandwhiches and the part that wants to go on an unstoppable murder streak.....Maybe I should move it.) or is that all that is needed?

[Partysan]

I think not. With that many FMA references it's alchemy or die. No academy in that equation.

Wouldn't it be FCA in that universe?

It seems to me as if people were constantly trying to increase the anime-esque part of this story. Not like that's a bad thing.
