Cocoa....he has like a page long theory about how the Way is about Rhue coming into sexual awareness or sompthing like that

EDIT:This is an example of it
That interpretation of events is completely wrong. I’ve never seen anything so asinine or wrong-headed in my entire life. Serena was never Rhue’s first sexual experience, it should be very obvious to any astute student of “The Way” that his entrance into the sexual arena occurred with the reception of the Shadow Sword that would from that time forward come to symbolize his sexuality. If you didn’t fall asleep in class you would remember that was an event that included two men, not Serena.

All though I could spend all day nit-picking your many errors I theorization, fact-checking, spelling, and grammar, I find it more useful to instead put forth my own interpretation of the character of Strata.

Strata is a collection of sexual disabilities, malfunctions, and difficulties that Rhue must overcome in order to truly consider himself a man. Strata, as you may remember, steals dippy. I won’t go into Dippy again, I do that amply in episode 6. Let me sum it up this way: Dippy is representative of Rhue’ perception of his own sexual abilities. You should have known that by the end of this paragraphs first sentence, but hell, I don’t expect too much from this crowd.

Ultimately if this is a story of Rhue’s sexual awakening, and it’s a good story, don’t you think it should be Rhue who overcomes Strata? The answer is yes. That last sentence wasn’t so much a question as it was a statement. That’s what we call a RHETORICAL QUESTION. Those are pretty much the only ones I ask because honestly nobody on this board deserves to answer any question I have. However we shouldn’t expect sexual insecurities to be gone forever, so wouldn’t you expect a comeback in some shape or form at some time or another? Sure you would.

One more thing, I do not change tense like a jackass when I was writing my stuff and I don’t mipsel words or forget punctuation nor do I include hav formed ideas for my own

Two people who have a personality change in Ep5 end up being crushed.


What about Slade? He definatly changed alot and I'm sure his plummet from the cliff left his body somewhat crushed.

Basically, no. Reaching puberty has 0% to do with anything on the Way. This is not Sweet Valley High here, people . . .

[quote]Those are all very good possibilities.But i still say its along the lines of just reaching puberty.Do you concur?quote]

I'd have to say it would be more of a sudden realization of "Holy crap, the one person I actually cared about, but didn't realize it until the very moment while she's in her death throes, is dead." And the end result... well, we all know what happens. So, if you absolutely HAVE to use the word "puberty", I'd say more along the lines of a pretty damn drastic mental "puberty".

And in other news, I am now immensly relieved to know that Cocoa is thought of as a crazy person by most people on this board. For a minute the first time I read that (I skimmed) I thought it was actually taken seriously by the board... and yes, I've lurked until now.

IthinkThat'swrong.Thats.stupid.

Why do you post like that? I can't understand why,people post like this, or like this.or this.
It annoys me greatly.. :x Really, why can't you take the time for one space?

Anyway, I don't really think Strata SNAP!ED. He just had never lost something like that before. He cared for Lyrra, although he probably tried to deny it when he went after Cesta. Lyrra was threatening his life, why didn't he just chop her up? He could have, I think this shows that Strata isn't as evil as some people think. When I play, I view him as an asshole, but surely he does show emotion over some things.

a good thought........but maybe only in seeing someone actually die is what caused him to snap not figuring out that he loved lyrra.(death can change anyone at anytime)

Meh... for some reason, I've always thought of Strata as a necrophiliac.
