To all people who wish to be paired with somebody: YOU MAY HAVE THEM. Except first convince me why you should have them, and then they're all yours. Er--your characters. Whatever.
Also, please NO ONE ASK TO BE PAIRED WITH HIEI. Just a warning. You can ask for him to be flirty with you--BUT NO ASKING TO BE HIS GIRLFRIEND OR LOVER OR EX ANYTHING. Friends, that's it.
To anyone who asks to e-mail characters to me: I'm sorry but I cannot do that. I can't give out my e-mail to people I don't know. Just review. I don't mind people who ramble. I do that. A lot. So feel free. Um, I suppose I could give out one of my many addresses, but please review, because I can't reply to any messages sent to me, unless I know you. So...only Ana39 applies to this. And redangel (I forgot all the numbers.) and V.
So far the only people who've asked for a pairing have been pretty nice about it, so I may just cave and let you have them. But for Pete's sake please say WHY. I'm not about to let you just HAVE them. Unless nobody else asks for them. But if more than one person wants a character to be paired with, you have to give me a good reason...please? There's already two people who've asked for Kurama. One for Touya. Nobody like Jin? And if you'd like to be paired with Kurama; pick: Suichii or Yoko?
And about the King...here's a little snippet of the King's past.
-------
A shoe whacked into the wall.
"I hate you so much!" cried Keiko, holding her other shoe in her hand. "How could you even think of doing such a thing, Yusuke!"
Yusuke dodged another flying shoe. "It's not my fault!" he shouted back. "Koenma just quit!"
"No he didn't!" she screamed, tears streaming down her face. "This stupid...King killed him! How could you let this happen?" She covered her face with her hands and sank to her knees.
Yusuke took a step towards her. She sobbed, causing him to halt.
"Don't bother," Yusuke heard the King's thoughts. "She's not worth it."
Yusuke looked around. The King's thoughts seemed to float into his head frequently, especially when in demon form. He didn't get it--didn't understand. He looked down at Keiko again. His first thought was to comfort her and tell her Koenma didn't really die. But he had this fleeting memory that kept trying to surface: he'd watched Koenma die. And he'd seen the King kill him.
The King's hands were bloody with the Prince's blood. He never once turned to Yusuke, but said instead, "Revenge only takes revenge upon itself."
He turned, but for the moment his face should have been revealed, he vanished. Yusuke looked down. The King had splattered him before he'd gone.
Splattered him with Koenma Diaoh's blood.
