"Awesome"
by AC's Lovechild
A/N: These are semi-cracky poems, but... I figured I might as well share. So far just Hiromi, Nebiros, and Ren but hopefully I'll make more!

Hiromi is awesome
She lives on the net,
Tries to be emo,
Then places a bet.
"I want to be noticed,
Popular, too,
Random guy on the comp,
Can you help me pull through?"
Her tries were in vain
For her soul they did want
So she traded it in
So her looks she could flaunt.
Alas, but two boys
Found this as their cue
As the sword and the shield,
They had saving to do.
It worked not.
However, she still makes the list,
As one that survived
A connection to Ren's fist.

Nebiros is awesome
He used to be Rai
Found chasing his best friend
The way to get high.
But who could he blame for
His high fall from grace?
"My best friend," he said,
"Never let me have space."
"You see, it is hard,
Being damned and all,
But Ren here, he's nuts,
And he refused to fall.
"So when I said, 'Look, Ren,
You can't help me now,'
He thought I was sick,
And poured medicine down
My aching throat.
Some friend. Poor Ren, he just doesn't get
That sometimes your gestures, however well-meant,
Blow up in your face," and here the man smiled.
Don't know what he said next, I left in beguile.

Ren truly is awesome
His looks make some drool,
But as far as friends go, well,
Ren plays the fool.
Taking candy from strangers was stupid, Ren knew,
But real gory rituals—"Dang, Rai, that's cool!
Yeah, let's go save Mio, and word our wish right,
So ten years from now I won't be up late at night,
Thinking darn it, we're dumb,
Though I will anyway.
Wait a second—this price
Might be too big to pay..."
