My First Love
 

The warm, benevolent rays from the sun caressed and bathed us in a gentle silken cocoon. The salty crystals from the ocean tickled my olfactory nerves … and her scent, so sweet like a ripened grape freshly plucked from the vineries of Spain intertwined with the smell of the sea. Our hands were together; interwoven bonds of unbreakable love and attraction. There was nothing that could stop us. Nothing could prevent us from being together. Nothing could detract our gaze from one another…



It was a hot scalding summer’s day when I first met her; Pink floral dress, bright red hair in a scrawling mess, running in the school playground. Her cheeks were dampened with sweat and the remains of tangerines were visible on her lips.


My hands screwed tightly into little balls and my head bowed down low as I urged myself to have the courage to talk to her. My heart was a bongo, beating and thudding.

Boom…

“Are you okay?” A small, gentle voice startled me from my internal struggle and I gasped in astonishment. It was her! My eyes shot wide and my mouth gaped open as I struggled to make my mouth move. She chuckled as she took my hand and led me to the garden.

“My name is Silver. What’s yours?” she asked, curiously. My mouth gaped open, but once again I could not say anything. It was as if a driving force blocked my voice box and winded me every time she spoke. Her voice was Goddess Teva’s; a beautiful melody gently tickling my ear drums. I noticed that the birds were chirping in sweet mellow tones and the cicadas were vibrating in perfect harmony as we passed by the great oaks that guarded the entrance to the garden. I further realised that my ‘should-be-sweaty-palms-since-it-is-hot-and-I-am-holding-hands-with-my-lover’ were rather cool and dry like holding a glass of water with replenishing ice cubes on a hot summer’s day.

We sat down on a wooden bench in the middle of the vacant park. Well, we tried. (Author comment: Why on earth can’t we sit on benches or chairs in Fiesta? Why do we always have to sit on the ground? X.X) We sat in front of the park bench and stared at the sky; cloudless and a perfect turquoise blue.


The seagulls croaked above as I stared at her bright blue eyes once more. “I…I…” I began as I felt the reminiscing feelings of anxiety I had felt in the past, “I love you.” From that moment on, life felt like a gamble – does she love me? My teeth bit hard into my lips and my eyes bore into hers as I anxiously waited for a response.

Suddenly, I could not breathe. Everything around me was motionless, as if time itself had stopped in its tedious tracks. The sun had stopped shining, the birds had stopped singing and the cicadas could be heard no more. Silver’s mouth hanged in a motionless stir and her eyes had frozen. Then, I realised what had happened.

:cries:

It was a bright new day, or rather, the continuation of a great night. Having just gotten off of my job working the graveyard shift I decided to log into Fiesta and get on my Trickster for some fun before I lay my head down to sleep.

Being a newcomer to the world of Fiesta, I still was not quite sure what to expect. All of the areas were new and full of wonderful things to explore. Having successfully explored a few new areas the day prior I must say that my quest log was-a-burstin with the bounty of my previous days effort and I was excited to turn them in.

Behold, a bright light shines and I find that I have leveled up! Oh happy day! This opens up a new experience for me at that point: the Millennium Robo Kingdom Quest. Having read briefly about this event on the message boards I was intrigued to see how it would play out. Well, I was fortunate and there was a KQ that would start in just a few minutes that I could join!Oh happy day!

I join the KQ, and, still being a newcomer took much delight in the new area. Being wise in the ways of the MMO however, I decided to be on the safe side and activated a T3 speed scroll that was given to my by my academy master as a reward for leveling up. Approximately 30 seconds into the Kingdom Quest I was running around the room when something that had been naging me to that point fully caught my attention: Where was everyone else?

I then realized that I was all alone facing the forces of darkness by myself. My little Trickster was shaking in her proverbial boots. But I would show them what a Newbie Trickster could do!

I managed to last just over 10 minutes before I died; kiting that many monsters behind me was truly an awesome sight. However, around that magical 10 minute mark I suffered from the Bane of all MMO players: Lag. Yes, I lagged and when I came back it was to see the dancing letters of "Fail" inform me that all was not as it was meant to be.

Still, I do not count that as a failure. It stuck then in my mind and remains to this day one of my most fond memories of in the world if Fiesta.

One additional rule, while you're reading the stories, you must listen to these:

New rule: I like.

Summer fun with GM_Kobal xP
 

It all started at the beginning of summer, when I decided to start entering in-game events. So I made nub characters in all servers, including a mage named "Kobalz_Wife" in Bijou, knowing it will catch attention. But little did I know, attention is not the only thing I caught..

One fine day, when the "PopQuiz" event was being hosted, I ran to the OX quiz field the moment “Kobalz_Wife” finally hit lvl 10, and found a small crowd already there. I squeeze my way through and found.. GM_Kobal amongst the crowd!!

“OH NO!! I see Kobal! Was I late? Has the event already started?" I shouted.

Big mistake.. Immediately, shouts, regular chats, and my whisper started filling faster than a bullet train on roller-blades!

“IMPOSTER!”

“I tot impersonating a GM is bannable?”

“OMG! Kobal’s wife! =O”

“No fair! I wanna be Kobal’s wife :/ ”

“How original =3=”

I was astounded by the reaction.. However, rage was not all they offered! There was even a lvl 100+ cleric (I know because he had his aura on) who had asked for my hand in marriage! I didn’t reply any of the chats at all, worried that I might really be banned if Kobal spotted my name, until...

[GM]Kobal:“Hi! -Waves at wife-“

[GM]Kobal:“Wait, I have a wife? O_O”

And with just that, everyone calmed down and started playing along. People started asking friendly, yet funny questions like,

“Did you make Kobal his curry today?”

“I know you’re actually WishBone >=D”

“Tell me Kobal snores in his sleep! :O”

I lol’d and began acting like Kobal's stand-in wife since then. I would tease Kobal whenever he DC’ed in events, made him pixel-curry sandwiches when he typo’ed, pat his head and stuffs like that.. There was even once when he found me on my other character while helping another player resolve her 'secret lover' issue ( I spam "I LOVE YOU" to a friend using an alternate character, and she was annoyed because she never knew who it was, so she got Kobal on the case) Kobal immediately lol'd after finding out, and posted a notice saying "ROFL, I found my wife" so all maps in that particular server can read it.. We had lots of fun together throughout summer, UNTIL he found something wrong about my name..

[GM Kobal]: “Wait, This is not my wife! She’s Kobalz wife, not mine @_@”

[GM Kobal]: “I feel sorry for that Kobalz fella.. I don’t mean to cheat on his wife!”

Me: “.....-speechless-.....”

And unfortunately, that was during the end of summer.. I haven't been able to join in-game events ever since then, due to my assignments T.T
Nevertheless, it was an awesome summer to remember xD

After digging through my stash of screenies, I found some of the ones related to my story.. Good times, good times..

Well first off, congrats to Fiesta for its 4 year anniversary :3~
SparkID: crystalblueheart
Okay, well onto my memories ~
Well, I believe this happened when I was around the beginning of the June, right when school was wrapping up. I had been broke a while before that, and eventually I made it up to around 3.5g. So I went to storage in order to get my restore set, since I was almost 55 at that point....I don't like coming back to Eldy just to go to storage XD SOOOOO anyways....I was leaving storage when someone randomly traded me. Whenever this happens, usually it's one of those people who either A) ask for money or B) put an item into the trade window and tell us how much they want for it and expect us to buy it. But it was C) none of the above. The person put a full restore set - with all 3 pieces - boots, armor, and pants - into the trade window and locked it. I tried to accept but then I had no room so I went back to storage to put it away and then retraded....I thanked him like 1000 times...well that's exaggerating a wee little bit but I'm one of those people who say thank you a billion times or who apologize and say sorry even when it's not my fault. Anyways, I asked him why he gave it to me and he's like I don't need it and you're about to be 55 anyways. If anything, this is one of my most loved Fiesta moments - other than partying up to kill monsters of course ^^ That was one of the kindest strangers I've ever met in Fiesta. This always reminds me that for every hater there is someone who loves. <3

... My favorite memory about fiesta… there are too many I can’t just mention one guys, I’ve tried this kind of contests before and I always say the same thing, after playing for almost 3 years there’s never just one favorite memory ~at least not for me~
… But I sure can tell you guys some of my favorite memories in game, to get myself started I remember those fun times I spent with my friends just chatting all day sitting by Roumen fountain or dancing by Elbama’s temple, back then lvling didn’t matter, it was all about making friends and having fun, then some time after I hit lvl 60 for first time and dropped my first nova in front of my master, that day almost made me cry >.< my master was such an awesome person, soon there came Christmas oh God my favorite time of the year in game, I have never seen snow in real life because it’s too hot where I live, also my parents don’t celebrate Xmas… which has always disappointed me because I love decorating Christmas trees and what not *^* well, all I can tell is that I was amazed when I saw snow falling in game and heard the Xmas songs on towns, since then I’ve spent two Christmas in game talking with my friends and giving away gifts :D because even if my family doesn’t celebrate it, I found it nice to have my in game family celebrating it with me, then probably my favorite part when I tell people my memories about fiesta, during those Christmas events I met a guy who I used to hate, and spawn kill and what not, he was always there to bother me omg he was so annoying! A few months later that guy helped me even after all I did to him, since then we became friends… actually after sometime we married in game just as friends, but as I usually say, only god knows what happened there because some months later we noticed that we actually fell in love with each other, (we do have a relationship in real life now and I love him more than anything, seriously) during that time I turned 18, and I was so happy because [GM]Straega sent in a notice saying “Happy Bday Shizu!” so a few seconds later my whisper got spammed, (that day Straega spawned a lot of slimes for us in FBZ3) ..also a few days later I got to prestige my first character, ~yes, I did cry while reading the job change quests, such cute story about what’s important in life~ Some months after things happened and I decided to move to a whole new server, Cypion, there I met Insanity guild and I found a new love for fiesta, never been in such awesome family before, since then I am loyal to that guild and nowadays I am an Admin! YAY! Of course I must add I loved all the support I got when I joined Fiesta Idol, where I won second place with my thriller video >.< That’s it guys most of my favorite memories in Fiesta, I know it might be too long for an entry but it deserves to be THIS LONG ~ I am a screenshot collector so here I attach my video with some of those moments and more ~ Thanks for the memories and I hope you guys liked it!
Also hope you don't mind my entry mixing both video and written >.< <3 sorry can't help it

A picture is worth a thousand words!
 

Being a cleric was mainly buffing and healing . . .to the point the little numbers on my keyboard got smudged out...

And leveling! Aiming for the top! Thanks to all my friends with helping me out! I remember going to DT with members originating from the same guild :D So if we level we level together as well!
http://img851.imageshack.us/img851/8746/remisence2.jpg


Constantly looking for parties for DT, LN and KQ! I believe I have around 4 pages of Kingdom Quests chests in my inventory now . . .

Of course, all this did not happen without making friends and involving in crazy situations! Like GM Kobal nearly overflooding Swamp of Dawn with mimics since we always complain about the lack of mimics spots! This is also the first time I met Kobal, since I do not really participate in in-game events :)

Also, belonging in a guild which made you a part of their family! Unfortunately, the guild got disbanned, luckily the members are still around! And having fun!

Playing for around 2 years and still not getting tired of it! :cutielove:

"You must go to Roumen Port first and give an introduction thread. Simply stop by and say hi!"

How do I do that?? Am I just gonna go roumen cheif and type a "hi" ?? or what should i do there ??

Warm sunlight shines down through the thick foliage of the forest, brushing my cheeks. The mist that gives name to the forest where I currently am in blurs my vision a little. I stumbled around in a rather unlady-like manner. I’m sure that if my guild master sees me like this he would make a big fuss, and I know, through past experience, that he would start with an exasperated ,yet not unappreciated loud sigh.. I tightened the grip on my hammer, preparing to bash in the head of any monster if they even dared to venture too near ., wait, no,no, I meant preparing to protect myself when they came too near. XD

Through the mist, i see a soft glow of light. Having nothing else to do, i lifted my feet and went over to it. The sun shone down, leaving the forest glowing like Edward Cullen and that blinded me momentarily. I rubbed my eyes, and was shocked to find a ratman in front of me. It seems that it was as shocked to see me as i was him. It wore tiny clothes, and that disturbed me a little. The ratman quickly regained composure and it swiftly flashed its dagger, ready to strike. I can see it by the way it shifted its legs. Adrenaline rushes thru my blood, and i swung my hammer the way i was taught.

I swung my hammer once and it hit home. Oh well, I guess I shouldn’t be messing with ratman at the 40’s.that was no challenge at all. I guess that’s enough for the all ratman thing. X3 My favourite and of course the best memory about fiesta, it’s when I met my hubby-in-game. It was when I decided to do my skeleton knight quest after dying 327629482 times there. Nervously, and getting all my pots ready, I walked to the door and that’s where I saw him,with a high level guildy. Usually I will walk away and wait till they leave and then solo my quest. But this time, something made me ask for party. And he accepted.

After we done the quest, our fate did not just end like all the other quest party. He approached me with his puppy cuteness and invited me to quest together. And from there, we talked almost everyday and even of our different time zone, he stayed up late during his summer holiday to talk to me. And one day, we were chatting as usual and he asked for my location. Assuming he is gonna help me quest, he came to me in his red scorpion and started saying stuffs like he had the proposal ring with him forever. And then, this is when a romantic proposal happened.


Feeling touched and happy. I accepted the proposal and here comes the wedding next day. Before the wedding, another incident colours my paper of memory. I met a friend while doing King Zombie quest in Graveyard of the dead. Again, expecting to die 32186438 before I can complete the quest, I saw someone in there. And..again! something made me ask for a party. And he was so friendly. Then, it’s time for the wedding and my hubby urged me to meet him by Dreian Uriel. Since not having many people in my friend list online, I invited him to my wedding.

Warped into the pretty blessed garden,the wedding starts, my heart was thumping like crazy. I was soooo excited. The pledge book started to talk and then we were drowned in the guests’ wishes. While chatting with the guests, I realize the person I invited earlier ago lives in the same place as me. We started to chat like crazy and he became the closest fiesta friend I ever had.

Life in fiesta is fun and colourful with the company of friend and hubby. These are definitely my favourite fiesta moments that is gonna make me stay.. and of course, keep me playing fiesta. ^^

It means here :cutielove:

It's relatively easy to pick out the high points in my Fiesta journey, overcoming challenges and sharing good times with friends. But after two years, several characters, and lots of wisdom-building experience, it's kind of fun to recall some of my noobier moments...

Inching around buildings trying to get to NPCs, because I didn't yet understand the concept of rotating the camera as you move. :D

Thinking it was a great score to get 4c for my mat drops from an NPC.

Dying out of my first King Slime KQ, because I didn't know how aggro worked and thought I could just shoot at something and kill it. Deciding that I probably shouldn't do KQs anymore.

Having someone ask my level 25 cleric if I had a main, and answering "yeah, a level 27 mage."

I'm not sure if ignorance is bliss, but it sure is funny to look back on when you know better. :D

Well, I’d start off by saying congratulation to Fiesta for its 4 year anniversary.
Spark ID: zackery_zach
First and foremost, this is a true story. There might be grammar and vocabulary mistakes, but I just wanted to tell you how much I feel for her. It’s a story entitled “Touch your heart”
And so the story begins…
My character name is Zacc, a gladiator. Apparently, the most wonderful thing that ever happened in my Fiesta life was something that I NEVER thought it would happen in my Fiesta life. In the beginning I didn’t believe that true love can be found through games. I saw threads saying 2 players were getting married in real life after playing this game. Seriously I thought it was ridiculous until I met one myself. I remember it clearly. I came back after a half year retirement. It was hot in my room and I was eagerly to level my fighter as my old friends in game had already surpassed me. It was then I met her.
Her name is Luna. She has a blonde hair and a pair of crystal blue eyes. At that time, we’re grinding snakes in Alberstol Ruins. It was just a simple meeting, looking for parties and grind all over the place. But as time goes, I got to know her better and take a liking on her. The way she talked really attracted me. It was like an aura drawing me to her. I was in love? I doubted for the moment. Taking consideration in our age and time zone, I felt we’re not suitable to marry (In game). But still I proposed to her and to my surprise she accepted. Well to be honest, the reason I proposed to her was because she was strong, a Spark cash user and also a FRIENDLY girl to depend on. After we’re married, we were blessed with happiness. Not long though a memorable one. Because of the time zone, we hardly can see each other as maybe that was my true feeling started to grow stronger.
She was a fast leveler and of course I didn’t want to drag her behind. So she promised she would level to 100 and wait for me. While she was waiting for me, she went on another character (Kas). Soon, she married a guy (Haz). My time was little; as I have school and hectic activities every day, I took like 2 to 3 weeks to reach 100. By the time I reached 100, she was still on Kas. I gradually lost my motivation to level. So I went on my lower character, Chao. Few weeks later, I came back on Zacc and was surprised that she retired her wizard, Luna because she thought I quitted. It was around 2 weeks I supposed. I was filled with a bit of disappointment. I didn’t blame her as I was at fault that I went off without telling her. Then, this was my biggest mistake I ever did. I decided to sell my gears as she was not there for me for quite some time and I felt lonely. So I thought I could spend some more time on Chao. At first, whenever we met, we would say hi but soon we had gotten further apart.
I played Chao and got her ready for PvP. I went back on Zacc started to rebuild him. By the time, Luna was at 102 and finally I started to level Zacc while she was still on Kas. She was always with Haz. Well I felt that at least when I online she could come over on Luna and we could hang out. I felt a strong sense of envious and anger perhaps. I felt like my wife was taken away from me. So I work hard to level to proof that I’m better than Haz. It was kinda impossible. Anyway finally, Zacc is 105 now and this time I will wait for her. She said she was going to capped Kas. She would sometimes online with Luna. Since she was gearless so I volunteered to farm her Leviathan Nest (LN) wiz gears. Well part of them, she bought it. Till she already had full set, we still don’t spend much time together as our time was not match at the first place and she was always on Kas with Haz.
There was once when a guy (Traz) came to me and asked, “Are you Kas hubby?” I tell him yes and he replied, “I’m her hubby too, on her another mage. She said she love me more than you.” WHAT WAS THAT? Is he trying to show off that she had taken my wife? I felt like my wife had been separated into a few people. Like I could bear to share her with someone? So maybe my envious had gradually turned into hate. I tried to talk to her. This was when she touched my heart. After much conversation, I asked, “What is Haz to you?”, “A leveling partner,” she replied. “How about me?”, “We weren’t leveling partners when I decided to marry you.” I was deeply touched by her words. After that we passed a few days together. She ran out of hp/sp extender and exp booster, so she said she would come back on Luna after she capped Kas and bought a leveling pack. We hardly could meet after that. Sometimes she would even ignore me but I knew she was not intended to. Yet I felt left out and lonely.
While I was waiting her, I created another fighter (Zacc1) and made him for 4x PvP. Until yesterday, I met her again in Elderine and we had a conversion like this.
Luna: Hi
Zacc1: Look at my 4x
Luna: You play the whole time but don’t even send a whisper or something.
Zacc1: Well I got quite busy this few weeks.
Luna: …
Zacc1: But I miss you a lot >.<
Luna: I feel kinda left out.
Zacc1: I was thinking to leave you a message in Facebook but I was afraid that you might get annoyed.
Luna: You even logged on gladiator and never say hi
Zacc1: Yesterday? I was on him to sell stuff.
Luna: In all time we are married, we passed like 2 ~ 3 weeks together. I felt left out here… well that’s how I feel. And after I saw you on an alts x.x didn’t even know you’re on is lame. I’m alone I did all the quests trying my best to level so yeah I got pissed. Now seeing you on another is just well… I felt abandoned.
I just can’t utter a word. She has the same feeling as me. At that moment, I just felt I wanna hold her in my arms tightly and tell her, “I’ve never abandoned you………”
Now I’ve decided that whenever I’m on, the first thing I will do is to check whether if she’s on. I put my heart and soul into the game to love her and I hope I would get the same in return. We’re far apart yet we’re so close connected through a game. Even we can’t meet in real; I just hope she can be my only cute little wife in game who loves me as much as I do. Now the reason I married her had changed. I married her because I really love her and wanted to protect her feelings. I hope we can do things together. I want to know more about her. I want her to be with me.
Laugh, laugh all the way out you want… but I must say I truly love her. You can say that I am childish. But maybe because of my childishness…I love her. The short moment that I spent with her was my best memories forever. Perhaps one day she might read this story and she will know that my feeling for her was never that less. I wish I can reach her heart.

This is picture where I had a conversation with her yesterday.

http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...11111/2bmp.jpg
After I reached 100level, we came back here to hang out again.

awww such cute story, Zacc :uhoh: idk if the others are laughing but i'm not, because just like you, i fell in love over the game too ^^ and look we even have a relationship irl since may 21st (2010) .. yes, over a year!! check my entry , and i wish you best of luck with her :cutielove:

Lol

Actually it's our intro section, there was a link in the first post.

Here it is again. Just make a thread there to say hi.

Zacc's story really touched me. Just wanna say..goodluck to u and luna. :D

Fiesta?
 

SparkID: Dolldum

Ah Fiesta...... :cutielove:

Well my journey started on another boring day.

I happened to be surfing on the internet hoping for something- anything, to do.

I happened to come across a small ad on the side of my screen.

"...Fiesta?"... :urweird:

I stared at it a bit harder.
It appeared to be a game. I have to admit, I was a bit curious, but the name threw me for a loop.

Fiesta....what if everyone was mexican?
What if I joined and I couldn't understand anyone? [Yes I am that simple-minded.] :cries:

So hence, I moved on, to another page.

Maybe it was fate, or just an annoying ad spamming my screen,
but over, and over, and over again- I would see that ad.

So finally, I clicked, and joined the world of Fiesta.

Being a cleric as a noob was pure Bliss, being the only class
that could heal themselves as much as they wanted.

When I made my character, Mari (For short), I had never
expected some of the things I went through......

One of the pains of Clericdom I experienced was at lvl 47.

The things that went on in my chat from then on ranged from
things like:

"Buff pls."
"Buff Plz."
"Buff PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ"

To:

Wanna get married? ....... :goaway:

....I remeber it clearly that day,
the weather was hot, and I was in a particularly annoyed mood.

And in my whisper, those word's appeared.
Those horrible, horrible words.

"Buff plz."

After being spammed for the 1,357th time for the day,
my patience snapped.

Smashing my key's till they almost broke, I sent back:

"Why don't YOU buff ME, HUH?!?" :angry:

He replied: "o.o"

In my rage, I ran around Eldrine screaming for buffs.

I screamed at mages, I screamed at archers,
I screamed at fighters.

Yes, I even screamed at other Clerics.

The most common reply I got was: "o_0"

And some other replies (which sadly), I cannot post on this. xD

Due to my "Blunt" nature, I tend to scare alot of people
(Prime example above),
but there was one person in particular who found something in me I couldn't.

It was another Hot, Irritable day,- too lazy to do anything,
I sat under a tree in Eldrine and watched the town go by.

A whisper appeared in my chat- my friend asking for help.
Using whatever little kindness I did have, I agreed, and made my way to Vine Tomb.

To my suprise, My friend wasn't alone,
a small, lower leveled fighter was tagging along with him.

"Who is this guy?" I asked.
"Oh he's just my friend, he needed some xp so he's tagging along", he answered. :laugh:

I wasn't fond of plvling, but I was too lazy to muster up the energy to argue.

Some halfway through killing Hob fighters, I noticed something strange.

He was too close.

While my friend was going about killing, his fighter buddy had hoddled himself right next to me.

I didn't think much of it, so I moved a little away.
Lo and Behold, once again I find him, right on top of me.

Annoyed, I told him to move.
He replied with a quick sorry and kept his distance.

After we finished our quest, I decided to depart.
We said our bye's, and I figured I'd probaly never see that fighter again.

...I was wrong.

Very wrong. :urweird:

The next day, My energy regained and determined to level,
I head to back to Vine tomb.

While slowly killing procks, I see a mage dash by.

He stops and calls out, "Hey Mari!"
I finish off the prock and turn to see who it was.

It was my friend.
Glad to have company, We pt'ed up and set out on our quest together.

....Im not sure when he appeared, but he did.
Suddenly, a third person had joined our party.

I figured it was maybe someone who also needed the quest,
but Lo and Behold- it was the "him" again.

During the rest of our questing I kept quiet, and didn't say anything to him.

Everything was going just how I wanted, until My friend had to turn in,
and I was left, alone with the fighter.

I hid myself in my shroom without a word, which seemed to work until
he remembered there was another person here with him.

He started talking to me, about weird stuff, dumb stuff....just any...stuff.

For as long as I could endure, I tried to ignore him, but eventually I caved.

I started talking to him little by little, and no matter what I said, even if it was harsh or mean, when he replied, it always had a smile.

He wasn't afraid of me, and he didnt Flinch in the least at anything I said.

As we started to talk more, I learned many things about him.

Weird things, Funny things, and how cute it was when he showed his childish side.

I can't exactly remeber the day now....,
but he called out to me, and asked me to meet him at Moonlight tomb.

I agreed, and when I arrived I was greeted by a few people around him.
I said hello, and they all went about their business killing monsters and such.
I sat and watched, but after I while I finally got up and turned to him.

"What did you call me here for?"

He didn't answer right away, more actually avoided my question completely, and when I turned to leave, he stopped me.

"Wait."

"What is it?" I turned around.
"Umm....well..."

I wasn't going to let him waste more of my time. I turned again, and started to walk off.

"Wait!" He called out again.
"What is it?!" I turned around.

"Marry me."

Im not sure what happened,

Maybe I died for a second,
or someone stopped time,

But the next thing I knew I had already said "Yes".

Looking back on it, maybe being proposed to in a graveyard wasn't the best setting.
(And I hope no one else does it in the future.)

Who could forget the people I've met?

Every single one of them, even if it was only for a little while,
was very important to me.

Maybe We've Met In person before, and we didn't even know it?

Or maybe some day, we will meet.

But all the same, when we are tired at the end of the day,
and desperately want an escape,

our hearts and minds can connect at that gate,

at our Escape,

Fiesta.

Oh... four years already... can you imagine, being with Fiesta for all these years? So many things happened... cap raises, new instance dungeons, new quests, new maps, new friends, new adventures, new experiences!
If I think about it... so many things happened that I can't remember everything.
I could write about how I reached Prestige or completed my Leviathan Nest set... we may consider it as a great accomplishment, which is true, but there is something greater.

Back in the ol' days... when I was still a little player who didn't know a lot about Fiesta... during the 105 cap, in January... actually, everything started earlier...

We were two fellow players playing in their own world. We had never met each other. I was chillin' out with my homies (shout out to Milky guild on Teva!), with my friends in Burning Rock. We were doing those repeats over and over, as we didn't have Dragon's Tomb repeat yet. Me and my friend Patrick_Star (pink afro guy) who is now inactive, he was of great help. I can remember our great time doing Ruby Guardian's Hair quest. It went amazingly well, and I still remember when he gave me the godly armor we found. I am still thankful to him. Pujaliscious... oh we did chat a lot back in the days. We were racing to 91, and then to Prestige. (I am sorry, but I won :nahnah: ) We were once doing a certain quest, and she partied her friend, Mariena_Girl. I had met her before, but I didn't really get to chat with her. She was just a cleric, and Puja's friend. We've met a few more times for more quests, it was Puja who invited her everytime. At some point, we started to laugh and talk about anything and everything in party chat. I thought, well why not add her to my friend list?

Days had passed, I kept chillin' with my homies, and started to chat a little more with Mariena and we started to quest togheter from time to time... actually, she helped me when I was squishy :cries: Everyday day, we chatted even more, talked about more things, and learned more about each other. We level'd togheter a few times, I was a little higher back then, but we helped each other. I then realised, well, I can't be single in Fiesta forever... I started to wonder if she would marry me... sadly, she already had the marriage buff! :cries: I thought... well I have nothing to lose, and it's just a game afterall, so I asked her about her hubby, and to my surprise, he wasn't active in Fiesta! :love: So I asked her if she would like to marry me, I have to say I had a Wedding Application to use anyways... so she said she would! :zomg: Too true to be good? Maybe... but she applied for the divorce!

Ten days later... on January 27th 2010, we got married in Fiesta :cutielove:
(Wedding thread with screenies: http://www.outspark.com/forums/showthread.php?t=243582 ) Many friends joined the wedding, and we had lots of fun! Since that day, we have been togheter, we have level'd to Prestige togheter and went through a lot of deaths togheter. Today, I am a level 105 Knight, and she is a 104 Guardian. We have completed our Leviathan Nest sets togheter. We keep stalking each other in-game... but these old times seem to fade...

I miss you~
