5402. Is this a new page I see before me?

Well, it was... curse that PFB!


To search for the ideal city today is useless. For all cities are different. Each one has its own spirit, its own problems, and its own pattern of life. As long as the city lives, these aspects continue to change. Thus to look for the ideal city is not only a waste of time but may be seriously detrimental. In fact, the concept is obsolete; there is no such thing.

Okay, now that actually looks good!

Unlike the traditional masonry buttresess, these do look like ribs on a giant skeleton. Largely because they are thinner and further apart, also because they are not parallel.

But more importantly, because they're steel. Steel beams evoke only pleasant emotions. 48.gif

Yep. Marik from Yu-Gi-Oh.

Hm... a lot of my avatars seem to be villains... time for a couple of lists (in reverse chronological order, of the ones I can find in my photos folder).

Villain avatars:

  1. Marik*
  2. Demyx*
  3. Axel*
  4. Demyx*
  5. Sephiroth*
  6. Zexion*
  7. Demyx*
  8. Xion*
  9. Vexen*
  10. Marluxia*
  11. Axel*
  12. Zexion*
  13. Envy.

Not villain avatars:

  1. Alexis Marfan
  2. Admiral Nelson
  3. An anthropomorphic personification of Australia riding a surfboard that is on the back of a wombat
  4. A cat with a wartermelon on its head supporting Schulmania
  5. Lord Vetinari
  6. Edward Elric
  7. A fox
  8. A paramecium with a smiley face
  9. Edward Elric.
  10. Xandir (although I'm not sure when... I just know I had him once. I can't find the picture).

Excluding the one day I had Alexis as my avatar, that's a run of 10 villains. 9 if you do include Alexis day.

* - some people will debate these. And I'd agree for a few most probably all of them. But they were intended as villains. Curse those sympathetic backstories! Envy, however, is definitely evil.

I think Larks is referring to where Zel got his user name. I'm sure he has heard of him.

No, Zexion as in number 6 in Organization XIII from the Kingdom Hearts series.

I do know where Zelgadis got his username - the character has even appeared in one of his CJs.
