I can't say anything because she's so happy and it'd be petty of me to tell her she can't do it but I really... she's my only family and I want to make sure she'd be safe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know her... &lt;small&gt;[ Oz shudders softly before continuing. ]&lt;/small&gt; fiancee's true intentions with her and I don't know what to do about it...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;I don't want to be his brother-in-law either....&lt;/small&gt;</content>

From what can be seen, one can note how it looks like she's trying to hold her jacket shut over something but it looks almost /torn/ upon closer inspection... ]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Uh... H-Hi...?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't.... suppose someone could help me?

Oz has discovered a sexchange &lt;a href="http://castleofdoom.livejournal.com/8745.html" target="_blank"&gt;card&lt;/a&gt; on pure accident and is now somewhere, newly female and with a ripped jacket due to his body suddenly changing to female abruptly. Also, as a better reference, he looks pretty much like the &lt;a href="http://oreno.imouto.org/post/show/186415/boku_wa_tomodachi_ga_sukunai-kashiwazaki_sena-mika" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;the blonde girl&lt;/a&gt; in that pic~]&lt;/small&gt;</content>

I'll finish as soon as possible, My Lord"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oz's voice is firm and almost authoritative as he speaks, gloved fingers pressing and smoothing along buttons and all types of controls. The view comes from inside of what looks to be some type of mecha, the screen in view flashing and lighting up with explosions as other machines - called Knightmares - cease functioning once a part of them is slashed in half.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The view shifts and moves as this Knightmare; the &lt;a href="http://i1.squidoocdn.com/resize/squidoo_images/-1/draft_lens1866320module8491025photo_Lancelot.gif1204318567" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;Lancelot&lt;/a&gt;, flies and soars through the air elegantly, eliminating any opponents belonging to the rebel group, the Black Knights. He's to find the man named Zero and eliminate him. He used to be his friend once... but after everything that had happened, things had changed and he could never go back to how it had been. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No matter how much searching is done though, the man eludes him every time with clever words and using his pawns before stepping out to fight himself. With this in mind, him as well as the other Knights of the Round are called back for now. If only to regroup and try to see if there was any way to get closer to Zero before he has time to plan anything else out; though that's easier said than done and he knows it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oz knew how the man was and it didn't seem like it was going to change so easily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A sigh escapes his lips once he's back on the ground, Lloyd happily informing him that they were able to save some data from the battles he had fought as he withdraws the key to Lancelot, opening up the hatch to the cockpit and lowering himself down to the ground. It's quiet here; give or take the sounds of other Knights disembarking and a happy voice sounding in the background, trying to gain his attention but he had other things on his mind so he simply sighed and continued forward, green eyes narrowed and clouded with painful thoughts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No sooner does he exit that area does a kind, soft voice speak his name and a glance over reveals it to be Nunnally. She's wearing a gentle smile with her attendant at her side, who looks less than disapproving of being in a place like this. In an instant, Oz's expression softens and he smiles softly, all severity of the battle before, now gone and replaced with something more calm and happy. "It's nice to see you, Nunnally. What brings you here?" All politeness still lingered even as he did this, bowing slightly to her out of courtesy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I wanted to see you after your mission, Oz. Thank goodness I arrived in time" Her voice is gentle to match the smile on her face. With a simple few words, they're allowed to be alone and they soon move to a room away from all of the noise of the Knightmares and everything else that had been there before. "How did your mission go?" She wasn't yet aware of what the mission's intent had been and that was fine with him as he didn't want to make her worry. Being the viceroy, he really didn't want anything else on her mind than was already there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though she was strong and he knew she could handle it, he didn't want to risk it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"It went well. I mean....  for the most part we were able to gain some new data on some newer knightmare models. Lloyd seemed more excited about it rather than anything else." A sheepish laugh followed that and Oz looked away briefly, pausing when her hand moved to grasp his lightly, Nunnally's head turned upward in his direction despite she herself couldn't see. "I'm glad. Everything's not becoming too overwhelming for you, is it?" A pause simply lingered after that before he sighed softly, his hand grasping hers back in return. "A little. I'm still adjusting but it isn't anything I can't handle." Oz nodded in assurance, her smile showing she believed him; she was the only person he seemed like he could be almost entirely honest with and let down all of those icy walls he had built up since becoming the Knight of Seven.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even if he no longer was friends with her brother... he would always be there to protect her and make her safe as she was still someone who meant a lot to him. Not as the Viceroy of Britannia but as noone else other than Nunnally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name='cutid1-end'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[The feed faded out on the two of them talking to one another, and that's followed by the sound of Oz yawning as he sits up, clearly confused to what he'd just dreamt and yet he can't stop the smile that's showing on his lips as soon as he finds the dreamberry where it had been lying nearby. It was a pleasant dream - if not something pretty incredible - for him and he didn't mind that much that it had been broadcast to everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even in this light, it's clear to see he's now dressed in the very regal &lt;a href="http://img3.lln.crunchyroll.com/i/spire1/03102008/2/5/e/5/25e5160aeb0a10_full.gif" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;outfit&lt;/a&gt;, down to the deep, royal blue and gold cloak, gloved fingers coming to touch the golden design on the cloak lightly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Amazement soon shows on Oz's face and he can't help but smile broadly as he takes note of his whole outfit.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Uwaaa~! That was so cool!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I didn't know things like this could happen~</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;b&gt;Warning:&lt;/b&gt;  Blood, Dark Imagery &amp; a bit of thoughts not quite sane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Effects:&lt;/b&gt; (optional)  Feelings of horror, fear, insecurity and at the end a bit of phantom pain in your chest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything was dark, cold and rather empty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The world came into view as one scattered with broken buildings in various states of dilapidation while the sky was dark, gloomy; like no light had ever touched it’s endless depths. Oz stands in the middle of it alone and an uneasy expression is written clear all over his face as the silence is suffocating before he’s walking forwards as a chill sets in that he can’t explain. He refuses to think about it, focusing on finding his friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He’s not alone here… he’s got that distinct feeling like someone is watching him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Gilbert? Alice?...” A beat follows that as his words carry off into the empty silence and echo on forever into the darkness. Though after what seems like moments of endless silence, that feeling of loneliness starts to set in and he shakes his head, closing his eyes and starting to run forwards, eyes closed as if he was able to so easily ignore it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He wasn’t alone here. He had his friends, his sister… he wasn’t ever alone but then yet why didn’t this empty, broken feeling go away?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Oz. Stop running.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That voice.. it was Gilbert’s… but when he opened his eyes, the man wasn’t there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oz was standing alone once again, but this time it was in a dark, candle-lit basement of sorts, several crimson-cloaked people lying on the floor entirely unconscious. A &lt;a href="http://www.zerochan.net/575804#full" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;blood-red scythe&lt;/a&gt; is in his hands and when he steps forwards, one can hear the definitive ‘splish’ of something wet beneath his foot. It’s enough to make him stop and look down, the sight of &lt;a href="http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110217213153/pandorahearts/images/b/b6/Yura_3.jpg" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;a man’s&lt;/a&gt; bloody body nearby, Oz’s foot resting in the pool of blood nearby it. The sight was sickening and he moved to step back when he took in his own appearance in the blood’s reflection; something horrifying to those who had never seen him in this state before.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That scythe in hand… eyes a bloody red and pupils slitted along with an aura of death radiating off of him, no sign of kindness evident in his expression.  Something &lt;i&gt;Murderous&lt;/i&gt; lingering beneath the surface.&lt;br /&gt;A killer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shaking his head, Oz immediately moved to step back and away from this scene of gore but a cold, clammy – and bloody – hand wrapped around his ankle and his gaze was drawn down to meet the face of the man from before. Skin pale, mottled with blood and a twisted grin that utterly mocked him in it’s entirety.  “It’s beautiful… how much of a monster you’ve become in the name of the lovely Abyss~”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“No…” That singular reply is shaky, barely leaving  his lips, the grip tightening on his ankle like a metal shackle to keep him in place as a pain started to well up in his chest at an alarming rate. “No! I’m not…” Words were again cut off as the pain grew in intensity and he brought that scythe down in a fierce arc as a spot above his heart glowed a sickening red—&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oz immediately jolted upright in his bed, a hand over his heart and through the dim light of his room, there’s a purely terrified expression on his face. His body’s shaking and it doesn’t seem at first he even notices the Dreamberry was recording him, trying to remember to breathe and to shake such a nightmare from the surface from his mind. &lt;a name='cutid1-end'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</content>

If you need more elaboration, please tell me~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Personality]&lt;/b&gt;   Despite being part of such a noble, prestigious family, Oz Vessalius was the opposite of what you would expect from someone coming from a such a noble line. Nothing ever kept him down and he always seemed to harbor a bright, optimistic personality with an almost endless amount of energy that he showed on an almost constant basis.  Though as a young child, he did work hard to gain praise and recognition from the man he seemed to respect and care for the most; his father.  During an incident that occurred when Gilbert [his servant] confronted his father, Oz discovered that not only did his father hate him, he hated him to the point of not wanting to ever touch him and claimed he was ‘filthy’. This happened to change Oz for the worse and after such an event, he started to believe that there was no ‘guaranteed’ thing in this world even if he accepted everything. Even if it were to be sad or painful, if he thought this way and accepted everything, then he wouldn’t get hurt even when people left him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With such a selfless, self-sacrificial mindset, Oz first thought that in order to protect his friends and family -  with himself being as weak as he was - the least he could do would be to not cause trouble and allow himself to get hurt in their place. Though this all had seemed to have changed after an encounter with a boy named Elliot Nightray. He had forced Oz to realize that the way he’d been acting was only hurting those who are closest to him, not protecting them. Feeling guilt from now knowing this very fact of what he had done, Oz then vowed to become stronger to protect his friends instead of putting his own life first. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though, as such, there was more to more to Oz then his exterior seemed to show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At least once or twice within the series,  Oz had started to show signs of this almost psychotic side to him. The first being in early canon when he was faced with a possessed Gil, telling him that he’d rather die before seeing Gil betray him and break his promise. He took the end of Gil’s gun - previously pointed at his shoulder - and placed it beneath his chin, daring him to follow through with ‘killing’ him, a rather manic smile being worn on his face just then. This was only the first and there are several other instances in canon where we have seen him showing a very similar mentality. A recent example of this would be within Chapter 38 when Oz is within Sabrie and he is confronted with a  form of left-over /fragment/ of a man named Glen Baskerville, the man’s words and actions that soon end up driving Oz into this almost manic state once more. The same look from that first instance had returned and he insisted on that he had to destroy everything, only barely shaken when Elliot got his attention and tore him away before he could have done any more damage. To his mind or anything else around him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However that’s entirely short lived.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As of recent canon, we start to see Oz’s slowly losing himself in a way and seems to sort of be going a bit ‘mad’ and that instance in chapter 38 seems to start happening more and more, summoning B-Rabbit’s Scythe and going awol on the chains. Only Alice has been able to stop him once before. He also seems to be a bit more jaded due to everything as canon continues to go on, but whether that’s a side effect of his contract with Alice furthering itself or not isn’t entirely clear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the more positive side of his personality,  Oz was always seen to have a rather caring side to him and his loyalty to his friends knew no bounds; the two closest to him being the Chain by the name of Alice and his servant Gilbert. However, it’s with Alice that he becomes strangely protective and always has to ‘destroy what makes her sad’ without thought and he starts to lose himself and forgets his restraints.  When it came to those two in general or anybody close to him, Oz was the type to be very trusting, and that he has always been someone whom had honest, sharp instincts about things and people. Though in regards to Gilbert,  even though the man devotes his entire attention to him as his servant, in the past and after the Abyss, he loves to torture/bully Gil whenever he can get the chance. His favorite one is using Gil’s phobia of cats against him to bully him but he never means any ill will, doing so merely for a good laugh. Even with that, he still does remain a devious, sneaky teenager with a horrible habit to flirt with cute, younger girls without even a second thought in his head. That latter aspect of him being the only thing that has /never/ changed throughout canon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keeping in mind these previous facts, Oz has always been known to have quite the smarts and has been able to figure out things rather adeptly whenever the need to has arisen. It has saved him and his friends a few times from trouble, and while it can sometimes be rare to see this, he is also rather witty and never seemed to be lacking in comebacks. Even with his enemies in the heat of a battle.&lt;br /&gt;When it comes to weaknesses, one could say that pretty girls are one form of weakness for him as he tends to be a major flirt almost all the time. Though on the other side, he is only human and will do almost anything for his friends to protect them. In the past, his self sacrificing attitude made that a weakness for him but he’s mostly overcome that and changed that part of him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Besides that, his fear and hate for his father is the one thing that gets to him. Because of the things his father has done to him as a child and how he refers to him, he becomes very… downtrodden or otherwise frozen in place and becomes very quiet.  His sanity is also waning, what with the fact his father had recently arrived and stepped all over him and Gil had left to go after his father when he’d left. So it’s all a bit of a tender subject and his sanity’s on the edge of cracking. That and there seems to be the irrevocable fact that Oz is having trouble with the fact that Jack Vessalius [his predecessor] resides within his body and how he takes over his body without his permission more and more often. He wants to be seen as Oz, not Jack, and he’s trying to make everyone else see that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So it’s simply broken down as such and seen that Oz is a rather complex person when someone takes apart of all of the pieces and looks beneath his falsely smiling exterior. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Abilities]&lt;/b&gt;  Due to Oz being in a contract with the chain named Alice, his body harbors her power and had to be sealed as to prevent his life from being exterminated from the mass amount of power that would be constantly wearing away his body. The seal was put in place by Gilbert, using the power of his own chain whose name is Raven. Without this seal, his body - as mentioned above - has power rushing through it and in turn, it causes this contractor’s clock on Oz’s chest [something he’s had since he made a contract with Alice] to move and essentially, shortening his life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently though, he’s been able to summon Alice’s scythe and her chains to use freely at his disposal and when he becomes like this it’s clear he’s not himself so it would be wise to stay away from him while he’s in this state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Outside of that, Oz is rather a normal boy to say the least. Though his travels have helped add to his reflexes becoming quicker as he’s been training in swordfighting with Xerxes Break –and losing to him I might add~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Other important stuff]&lt;/b&gt; Oz + Scythe = POTENTIAL CRAZY and then derp~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Sample post]&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;small&gt;[First Person]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;- What were you doing before now?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eh? Quite a lot of things… but is that really important~?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;- Do you prefer adventure or the peaceful life?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adventure! If it’s too peaceful then I get bored… but then again if that happens I can always find Gil or Alice~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;- Someone comes to you to ask for the time. How would you respond?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’d give them a smile and tell them exactly what time it is. However, if it’s a cute girl, I have to compliment them for coming to me to ask such a simple thing~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;- What do you think of your home world?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s pretty nice~! Asides from the chains that pop up, I think it’s pretty nice if I have to say so myself. Though it’d be better if some people didn’t exist buuuut I can’t do anything about that~ &amp;hearts;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;- You're asked to take someone out for a date. Do you agree? If so, describe what you would do. If not, tell why.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course~! I wouldn’t resist taking a cute girl on a date. I’d take them out and treat them like a princess~! Flowers, chocolates, everything~ I would charm them and make them feel beautiful! They wouldn’t regret it~!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;- If someone provoked or attacked you, what would you do?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’d fight back. There’s no way I would just let them do what they want to. I have to do what I can for my friends’ sake so I don’t make them worry about me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;small&gt;[Third Person]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/b&gt; He knew he &lt;i&gt;should&lt;/i&gt; be happy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a place with all the people he held dear to him all close and nearby.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet… his mind kept wandering back and lingering on what had happened before his arrival here and that was enough to rise a tight feeling in his chest that he couldn’t quell. Shaking his head, Oz sighed and knelt down at the lakeside and ran his fingers over the almost-glassy surface of the water and watching as his reflection rippled within the water. Not aware he had been so lost within his thoughts, it was the sight of another face in the water that shook him back to reality for just a second.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where his reflection was in the water, he found that he saw not his… but Jack’s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Smiling at him as he always did; though it was hardly a comfort right now as he shook his head, shut his eyes tightly and grit his teeth slightly. That’s right. How could he forget? Jack… he… he’d killed Isla Yura back home… and then left him to deal with it. The fact his hands had killed a human – no matter how despicable and wretched the man was – still didn’t sit well with Oz and he nearly felt sick at the thought. Though a part of him was happy that man was gone,  as he hadn’t forgiven him for trying to recreate the tragedy and almost taking away Alice from him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He put a hand to his chest and opened his eyes, staring down at the calm waters once more and seeing his normal reflection staring back up at him before casting his gaze up and across the lake itself as he exhaled a sigh he hadn’t been aware he had been doing beforehand. Yes… he should be happy that now… he wasn’t back in that horrid world and here… all of his friends were alive and well and there wasn’t the looming threat of chains or the Abyss  hanging over their heads.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then why did he still feel like something was missing?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Why do you want to play this character in Somarium?]&lt;/b&gt;  I enjoy the idea of this game’s premise and thought it would be interesting to throw someone like Oz in to meet everyone else and to interact with the rest of the cast that’s already there and how they’re adjusting to this. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Which rule was your favorite and why?]&lt;/b&gt; No God-modding.  Because if people were allowed to go around god-modding, it would only make a game un-fun to play in and would create unwanted and unnecessary drama.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Where did you hear about Somarium?]&lt;/b&gt;  Through a friend~ &lt;s&gt;Ada-mun enabled me~derpderp&lt;/s&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Any questions?]&lt;/b&gt; None at the moment~</content>

Nurses had just come to tell him for the fiftieth time that 'chains' aren't real and how whatever world he lived in was all in his head. Among other things that he wasn't too happy to hear right now.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hey! Doctors! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listen up! I don't care if you're listening or not, but I just want to clarify that the last year or so of my life has NOT been made-up and I'm sick of hearing about it all! [An annoyed glare and he's very tempted to throw the communicator at the wall]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It might have been funny in the beginning but it's annoying now. Got it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt; [[ooc: Oz isn't entirely high-risk but the nurses keep an eye on him as he's been diagnosed with a form of PTSD that came after his father traumatized him as a young child and now has delusions of living in a world with chains, an abyss and that it's all in his head. Oh. Not to mention they tell him it stems from what they've pretty much summed up as his denial of dealing with his father and that they think he created this world to get away from it all. So.. have fun~~?]]&lt;/small&gt;</content>

It shows a rather handsome twenty-five year old blonde man with lovely green eyes, his features older and more refined, blonde hair wet and a towel around his neck so it's easy to tell where he just was. His hair looks a fair bit longer than before and from what the camera shows, his chest and torso is a fair bit more defined with some muscles that hadn't been there before]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I rather like this event.

Blonde hair is now an ungodly hue of pink [as seen in the icon] and his one eye is twitching a bit in anger]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; like this. [Tugs at a pink strand] This stuff won't come out easy at all either... Wonder how long they're gonna be here and -- &lt;b&gt;HEY!&lt;/b&gt; [A pillow narrowly misses his head and he sighs] Wonderland's got a weird sense of humor if it thinks we'd enjoy such things like this...</content>

The one man whom he's hated for a while in his life. He's a pretty big asshole so tread lightly xD]]&lt;/font&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">[The device flickers on and Oz is grinning rather brightly. Her hair is grown out to her shoulders and her green eyes look so damn happy. Her dress shirt is open enough to show her cleavage a bit and she doesn't seem to mind]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;GIIIIIIIIIIIIIIL!!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Guess what came in~? [She pokes a bit at her chest] Yep~!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not too bad, I think. Though I kinda need some more fitting clothes. These ones aren't comfy anymore..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OH!! You should let me see you!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[A pause and she giggles, looking rather giddy about all of this and not hesitant at showing how proud she is about this]</content>

    <content type="html">[When the device flickers on, there's a long moment of silence and the sight of nothing but the backdrop of a room before Oz comes into view. Simply said, he looks a bit worn down and ragged. Blonde hair's a mess, green eyes look faded and his expression seems so drained, his skin a rather pale hue. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What one may notice is that he's not wearing a shirt. So everyone can see the thick white bandages wrapped tightly around his torso almost completely and the reason why people haven't seen much of him, red starting to show a bit beneath the bandages in a few places]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;...I probably shouldn't be moving..&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh. I.. hope everyone's okay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I haven't had a chance to get out much. I guess what happened was fun but.. it kind of hurt me more.. [He touches his hand to his chest and it shows he's sitting on his bed now] Not that it matters. &lt;s&gt;He's probably going to hate me for it still&lt;/s&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I need to make it up to someone for something.... something horrible that I did to him. It hurts. A lot. But... I know he probably hurts more so.. I have to.. [Trails off briefly]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know what to do anymore. &lt;s&gt;He probably won't forgive me for that..&lt;/s&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[[ooc: So... yeah. On Jan. 12 in this log &lt;a href="http://community.livejournal.com/entrancelogs/284908.html#cutid1" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, After being severely injured by Vincent, Oz ended up shooting him and killed him. Gil saw it happen. So... Oz's feeling guilty to all high hell and even now has stayed in his room, not wanting to face Gil or anyone after what he'd done, even if it'd been to merely save his own life. So anyone feel like maybe trying to cheer him up?]]&lt;/small&gt;</content>

Maybe he didn't realize the comm'd clicked on but now that it's on, might as well use it]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I feel really bad that I missed the holiday stuff... [a pause]&lt;font size="1"&gt; Maybe I shouldn't have went and wandered around the mansion for so long like that.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though I wonder how everyone's doing. Anyone have some plans for the New Year?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd like to hear them if anyone's willing to share~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh~!! Gil also told me there's people here who are... [a pause as he thinks] human forms of nations or countries and said there's a lot of them here. I only wondered because I want to meet you all. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You'd make history seem so much cooler than what I learned in all of my textbooks!</content>
