Welcome to Gaia! ::

It does get a bit complicated, but it just takes time to get used to writing as if you were someone else. Battles tend to be easier because it's such an ordered thing. "First this, then this, finally this." Where as conversations and the such are putting yourslef completely into the character and making the to entities (yourself and your character) combine. Ok. All I'd need would be their profiles. I have to warn you though, since I'll only have your profiles and perhaps a few posts to work from, I might get your personality and actions a bit off. If so I'm sorry. I'll try my best to please, but sometimes it's hard.

I will. I try to get a feel for everyone's style before doing any type of auto-ing with they're character. Also I have to ask, is it ok to auto you're character during this back-story? Like I would have to be talking for your character and making his actions in this story, so I need permission from you and everyone else that wants me to write it.

Edit: Congratulations haha. It must be very well set up to be noticed by a higher up.

Ok. I know it's an odd question, but it's nessessary. I saw. I voted that it helped, though I was already done with my zanpukato. They are really good sites though haha.

Meep. Same here, but I just went through two years of Japanese and didn't learn anything. It's so hard man lol. I used yahoo translator and a romanji site, so hopefully it's correct.

I don't think there is a certain rank you have to achieve before you have shikai, though most people are seated members. Don't worry Zaine, you'll do well here. I figured that the only true way to fail at naming a zanpukato would be to not try, so I just did my best, as have you haha.

Aye, I can't wait for it either. It'll be interesting how you go about it. I can't wait to read the posts, especially with someone like Evil for a Captain. I bet she's going to have something insane planned out for you. I'm personally a bit terrified about what Captain Yukimaru is going to do for my shikai training.. After all, I only got my sealed for like a day ago (in the roleplay).

It's alright man, I'm right there with you haha. Lucky.. I just didn't want to be like everyone else lol. Plus, all of the differant states are going to be difficult to achieve (shikai and bankai) because of how stubborn my imps are haha. I, my friend, am a proud unseated member of first squad. The perfectionists if you will, of all the squads haha.

You could have made it. Don't be a downer haha. Your excellent at rping and what you lack is made up in other areas, all of which improve with time. I like your bankai, it just needs a bit more in my opinion. I'm not so much an over achiver man lol. Just love to write is all. While it would have been nice to have you in first squad, it's nice to have friends in others. And it gives me a chance on how to make our two characters a bit differant in the back story. Plus, once we see each other it'll be like good friends seeing each other again for the first time in three years or so. It seems good to me.
