Farewell and Forum Memorial
Hello! Didn't think I'd be back here again but it's been a ride over these past 4+ years. With news that the site is shutting down I thought I'd come back here and say a small thing.
When I discovered this site a long time ago, I never thought I would make good friends or even be a part of a small community for a bit. But here I am, and even if I did disappear off the face of the Earth, I needed time to work on some things. I could have a million things to type right now, some good and some bad, but for now I just want to remember the good times we all had.
From various RPs, to the late nights in PMs, all the memes and laughs, for all of that I want to thank you all for being here. Really, this site would be nothing had it not been for the people here, Mishima, everyone. Really, thank you all.
If the site does get archived, I was hoping this would be a post where we could all leave one last message. Think of it like a memorial on a wall or a page in a yearbook we can sign. It'll be here and if anyone screenshots stuff we can save it for the memories. So feel free to do so here.
Live long, eat well, be happy. And whatever you do, keep moving forward. Remember me, remember us, remember what we made. Thank you.

Duel on a Virtual World
<i>In the middle of a dank alley in Shinjuku, there is a door, a door that leads straight underground into a basement of an establishment that seems to be some type of cyber cafe. This huge underground room hosts various computer terminals in the right side of the room, some tables and couches on the left, a small kitchen and coffee bar, on the far right end of the room with a lone billiards table next to it. On the side of the couches, the general lounge area, is a vending machine with various snacks and refreshments. There is a scent of fresh made coffee in the air of what many would see as a regular cyber cafe/lounge. However there stood a massive machine in the middle of the establishment, shaped like a cylinder with four circles poking out of each side,each closed by a sliding metal door but with one on the left side opened revealing a chamber with a pad on the bottom, large enough to fit any human or otherwise in. Between the front two pads is a computer terminal, a custom built one from various parts found in used electronic shops, looks sloppy and very unorganized with many wires sticking out of the computer into the massive machine. On the very top of the machine, there were four massive screens, one on each side, as if it were meant to project something. Hikaru was hard at work typing something on the computer terminal, eyes glued to the screen and a lit cigarette in his mouth (ignoring the "No Smoking" sign near the other end of the cafe where the vending machines were) He then stretches his arms out and lets out a sigh</i>
Okay, almost done, just gotta upload the improved OS onto this baby and she should be ready to go...
<i>He then pulls a floppy disk out of his jacket pocket, and slides it into the side of the computer. He then types for a few minutes more and hits the "ENTER" key in an assertive manner. The machine makes a loud humming noise, the screens turn on, and a faint blue light emits from the pad in one of the open chambers. The screens show a projected image of a grid environment.</i>
YES!! FINALLY!! She's ready. My new and improved virtual reality chamber, now I just gotta let my client know it's ready, and after the test run, the new cyber cafe I've been meaning to open will be ready for business
<i>Hikaru reaches for his phone and begins to type up a message</i>
Thanks for the memories
Hey guys, or to anyone reading this. This isn't exactly easy for me to write, or easy for me to even think properly right now, but I'm gonna be taking an indefinite break from social medias, including this (not like I was really active at all anymore on here anyhow). I've already left a bunch of discord servers and I'm planning to go dark again on social media.
To those who cared enough to read this or ask why, well to put it simple, I'm not happy with myself, or with things at all. I feel very out of place wherever I go, if it's related to Phansite or not. Everyone's in their own happy groups or cliques and I'm just facing the facts, I don't belong anywhere. People know how to write creative things, people are outstanding RPers, I'm nothing more than a basic average joe with nothing going on for him. So why bother sticking around, you know? It'll really only make me feel more like shit I guess. It's funny really, no matter how many times I convince myself that I am something, the facts keep coming back and slapping me on the face. I am nothing.
To those of you who I've had the privilege to call friends, or to anyone that I've interacted with in a hopefully positive way, thank you for giving me laughs and support, for sticking by me no matter how much of an asshole I was or how much of a dumbass I am. I can't exactly find my words right now, but I guess all I can say is thank you. I'm gonna go back to being a hermit, what I was before I stumbled upon this place. I don't see me returning to any chat rooms or servers or anything for a very long while, or at all. I don't know if I can ever feel happy with myself at all either, but I guess I just have to keep on going on with life. "Blameless wolf carries on alone" as a song went. Guess it's time I should head out.
Peace and love

Death of the vicious criminal Hikaru Michi
(10:26 PM Kabukicho district, Shinjuku. Inside of a sleazy restaurant with many men, and women eating and drinking, waitresses wearing revealing outfits, typical Shinjuku night life. At the other end of a restaurant is a man sitting alone at a bar, he is of average height and build, wearing slim jeans, black trainers, a white shirt and a red bomber with the sleeves rolled up, he sits there drinking whiskey and smoking a cigarette, lost in thoughts.)
*Shit, this was supposed to be a routine job, just go in, find the documents, and get out. Damn corrupt businessmen, they're usually prepared, but not like this! Bastard's probably got the entire city looking for me, I'd better lay low for a while, but where to go?*
Virtual World Sparring Session
Greetings one and all, it's the man of mayhem, Hikaru, returning with a special action thread! If some of you may recall, last spring/summer one of my many alter egos made a tournament called the King of Nexus tournament, where many strong and daring fighters slugged it out inside a virtual world in many stunning battles to the death! Well I am here to announce that as of today, the virtual world is now open for all to use!! That means if you are craving a fight or a challenge, step on down, challenge anyone willing to fight, and duke it out in a fatal match where the last fighter standing wins!!! The rules are simple
1. No Instant Kill moves
2. No self healing
3. Absolutely no interference with the virtual world (So that if you die here, you don't die permanently outside of the virtual world)
4. Use of any ultimate/final attacks or techniques are limited to once per fight.
You will be uploaded to the virtual world via the massive computer used in the King of Nexus, simply step on the pads of the massive machine and the rest is history.
You can choose where you want to fight, or which tunes play during the fight, so go metal, go all out, and remember, treat every fight as a fight to the death, you'll be revived when you exit the virtual world as well as have any missing limbs or organs restored. With that being said, enjoy the fighting!
Telling a story using only music
I'm bored, I'm still a wee bit drunk, and I'm bored, so here's my attempt at doing something that I was curious about for a bit, I'm gonna try to tell a story using only music. Any kind of music. This is gonna go south so fast, but drunken boredom strikes, so let's do this thing
Hikaru's Haunted House
October has arrived, and naturally, everywhere is filled with crappy Halloween decorations. The usual stuff, crappy skeletons, ghosts made of bed sheets. However, one odd thing stands out, an old house, abandoned for several decades...
