I completely forgot to make one of these. This'll be my crit rawket post for A.B.A, so any criticism (ANY criticism, I'd rather you say I'm completely screwing up her character than to allow me to wallow in my inaccuracy and shame myself) or questions you can address to this post. I openly invite anyone to ask any questions they want, though I can't answer all of them as not EVERYTHING is actually known about A.B.A quite yet. Still, I'd love to try, and it's fun to discuss one's characters. I'm especially interested if you're considering apping another Guilty Gear character. I'd love to help out with it if you want~. :D WE NEED MORE GGXX FOLKS SERIOUSLY IT'S LONELY.

Likewise, any plotting anyone wants to do with A.B.A (I see a lot of potential with the FMA/Homunculus crew, for example) can be discussed here or over AIM when I'm on (It's Morzox, same for gmail and YIM, gmail's your best bet to catch my attention, though, if I'm not on AIM). I'm open to just about any and all ideas, so have at it!

[Voice]
Ah, so much has happened... I forgot to keep using this thing...

[Some awkward shuffling, she's trying to think of what to say.]

I guess... I could ask if anyone has any advice on how to plan a wedding....?

[Video/Action Post (Grey text is Paracelsus)]
[Again we see A.B.A and Paracelsus, out and about today. Of course, today, Paracelsus has a pretty bow on his collar, and A.B.A's got a heart-shaped key on her belt instead of the normal one.]

A.B.A, there's evil about! Time to fight!

R-Right!

[Suddenly, have your semi-standard magical girl transformation sequence complete with semi-tasteful semi-nudity and spinning. When the sparkles and colors clear, A.B.A's wearing some kind of frilly heart and key themed pretty dress-skirt type thing. Think your typical cliche magical girl anime outfit, but colored white and red and decorated with hearts and key designs. I-It also shows about as much skin as A.B.A's usual outfit does. Paracelsus looks like this, but with pretty bows on his horns. He doesn't really seem to care, thankfully.]

Uh... Evildoers beware! In the name of justice, I'll hurt you!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[OOC: Uh.... B-Beware her. Really.]

[Voice]
Hmm..... I think I saw some people from home the other day... Ah, M-Megumi, did you see your friend.....? You have a lot of them, though....

I wonder how long I've been gone...

[Some flipping of paper; she's looking at a calendar]

...... Ah.... It's been a whole year.....

[Trinity Hall//Action]
[And here's young A.B.A, former homeschooling student sent to attend the all-girls school by her father so she could go out and see the world a little. Of course, all those years of isolation and comfortable living at Father's mansion/lab haven't done much for her people skills, so she's absolutely PETRIFIED. Her lack of coordination from going outside so rarely has also caused her to get into a number of accidents already, so she's got scattered bandages wrapped around her neck and spots on her arms and legs. Around her neck is Paracelsus, now a mere amulet on a chain, but still the only source of comfort for her in this bizarre place. In her free time she'll find a quiet place to hide and tell her amulet all the horrible things that happen to her (from her perspective, anyway). And yes, she still has the key through her head. No, I still can't explain it. :X]

[Currently, she's in a quiet little corner of one of the classrooms not being used at the moment, talking to herself Paracelsus, lamenting the accident in the Chemistry lab because she was supposed to go there next, not to mention it's pretty much the only subject the little bookworm really knows anything about.]

Ahh... I-I can't go to c-chemistry if the lab is wrecked.... I r-really wanted to go today, too... If... If F-Father were teaching here, I b-bet nobody would have made s-such a simple mistake...

..... Uh... I wonder what... I'm supposed to do now...

[Voice]
Ah.... I-I know I've had this charade going for... For a while now, but... My love, I've been so foolish... I've hidden myself from you b-because I didn't think you'd feel the same way...

But... But the way you blush when I compliment you... The kind things you've said to me... The help you've given to me when I've needed it, I can't... Ah~, I can't hold it in anymore~.... My love, I want to be with you~....

Miss Megumi~....

[OOC: Okay, first of all, I've been without internet ALL FREAKING WEEKEND. I MISSED THIS WHOLE FREAKING CURSE BECAUSE NONE OF THE COMPUTERS IN OUR HOUSE FREAKING WORKED. Haruko, Excel, Yomiko, A.B.A, Big Boss, EVERYONE I had plans for have pretty much missed this whole thing. ;-; It sucks so bad. I've got JUST enough time to post this on this computer but then I have to go, so backdating is a certainty. I'm REALLY sorry to everyone who made plans with me. For now though, you get awkwardly lesbian A.B.A. Yyyyyeah. I chose well on which person to post, don't you agree?]

[Video Post]
( Pic Relevant )

He's mine. No one else can ever have him. I-If anyone so much as tries to touch him, I'll... I'll never forgive them!

[Video Post//Grey=Paracelsus]
[The young red-haired woman with the key through her skull, pale skin, and green eyes underlined by dark lines can be seen in front of the device. She's dressed casually in light bandage wrappings, small but negligible blood spots here and there. It's unclear whether they're fresh or not. From the perspective it seems to be on a dresser or desk of some sort. The room she's in looks nice, fancy-ish. It's dark, though, so the only things that stick out are a few shelves lined with different sets of keys, as well as a rather LARGE key-shaped axe with a face staring at the girl and her device as she speaks. When it talks, its sewn-shut mouth moves, apparently unhindered by the fact.]

I've been forgetting to make these lately... I wonder if I've forgotten anything else...?

It's hard to keep track of the people in this city... They come and go so fast, I can never keep it straight in my head. I think I've become friends with a lot of people, but... I can't remember who they all were... I wonder how many are still here...? How do you tell if a person is a friend or just kind...? Ah, it's all so confusing sometimes...

I think you're just confusing yourself. You're probably too hard about it all.

But it's-... Hnn... My love, are we friends...?

W-What? What kind of weird question is that all of a sudden? Am I supposed to be a husband or friend?

Can't we be both...?

[She sighs, laying her head down on the desk thoughtfully, the key making a soft thunk that elicits a light wince from the girl. She looks off to the side, like she's been stressing herself out over such seemingly unimportant matters for a while now.]

This place smells like blood... It sort of reminds me of home... And the reason I left...
[/Video]

[Voice; Filtered to Hellsing mansion people/Megumi, etc]
Uh... Megumi asked me to... help while Paracelsus, Vivio, and I are here... So, ah, if there's anything I can do...

[Voice]
Nnn... Today was supposed to be a good day... I made some chocolate for Paracelsus, but...

[The muffled voice of Paracelsus can be heard in what sounds like a closet, but it's hard to tell what he's saying.]

.... Uwaaaah... I don't like him like this... I-It's not right... It isn't really him this way... It just doesn't feel right...

I-I didn't want to do it, but it's for your own good, Dear...

[Private; visible to Vivio]
Megumi... Nn... She'll be okay... I think...

~~~~~~~
[OOC: A.B.A's beloved is being a little too affectionate today and it's weirding her out. It pains her to do it, but she's put him away in the closet for the day. Anyone who wants to try and move in on her in the meantime, feel free to try~]

[Voice Post]
Mm, the haircut looks nice~... It feels soft and fluffy~...

I'm amazed they managed to get around the key...

Now we're finished with all of the tributes, correct~? What a relief~... Now that all of that's out of the way...

Megumi, um... There was something I wanted to talk to you about... About Paracelsus...

[Voice Post//Grey=Paracelsus]
Uwaah.... I want that curse to come back... He finally had a body... It was warm...

[A couple of sniffles]

... I suppose we should at least be happy that we've completed this decree...

You didn't really expect me to stay like that, did you?

[A frustrated moan and shuffling; she's been moping in her room since the curse day, only coming out for her transfusions.]

Oy... Are you done with the blood thing, too?

... Yeah... But Shiki still hasn't given me the sugar yet...

Does he even really count as an enemy?

H-He will if I can't complete the decree thing because of him...! Hmph...

But sitting around and fuming like this isn't going to get anything done, either... O-Oi, don't look at me like that, there's nothing I can do about it!

.... Nnn...

[Sound of a grumpy head-desk]

[Accidental Video Post]
[The machine clatters against the head of the bed and clicks on, dropping back onto the faintly red-tinted sheets with a bounce, landing upside-down (nothing flipping one's machine can't fix). Two figures flop into view, one straddling the other affectionately. The one on top (or bottom, as it were; the one doing the straddling) is our red-headed and key-skulled heroine, still her usual self, wearing what she usually wears to bed: nothing but the bandages in which she usually wraps herself. The figure she's straddling is a woman almost as pale as she is, but taller, with similar circles under her eyes, and long blonde hair with two long and prominent bangs framing her face. She's wearing a collar with a chain on it, but aside from that... well, it almost looks like she tried to wrap herself with bandages like A.B.A does but failed miserably at it. Luckily all the important parts are obscured while on-camera. Both voices can be heard debating their current... Entanglement. A.B.A's voice is filled with an orgasmic ecstatic joy, fawning over her... new companion?]

Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaah~! My love~! You have a body~! I'll admit, it's not what I was hoping for or what I was expecting, b-but that doesn't matter now~... Isn't it wonderful, Dear~?

IT'S INDECENT! S-Stop touching those!

Ahh... They're bigger than mine... D-Don't think less of me for it, my love~...

If there's any reason for me to think less of you right now it certainly isn't that! This is a lot to take in all at once, you know!

[There's an audibly muffled anxiety and frustration in A.B.A's voice as she clings to her beloved tightly, obviously enjoying having something soft to hug for a change.]

We have to take advantage of every opportunity we have, Dear~. A-Ah! Do you think we can be married now~?

I-Isn't that a little fast!? This probably isn't even permanent!

Then we'll just have to make the most of our time, then~...

[The device is turned off in the ensuing struggle.]

~~~~~~~~~~~~
[OOC: Well, A.B.A isn't affected, but... Paracelsus is... *Cough*]

[Voice Post]
My Father made me... He was an alchemist, I think... He was taken away before I was finished, so I've never really met him, either...

... T-That's all I know...

Hey, what about the sugar thing?

But I don't have any enemies...

... Ah, Shiki, could I borrow some sugar?

[Voice Post]
Uwaaahhh... Am I supposed to drink alcohol or blood...?

H-How confusing...

[You'd see skinny, red-haired young woman holding an over-sized key-shaped ax, dragging it around by a chain attached to its neck. The woman has a key through her head and is dressed in little more than a bunch of bloody bandages. She'd almost seem like a zombie if she wasn't speaking to her companion, whose blade also seems to have blood on it (it may or may not be hers). She seems lost and confused, like a deer in a pair of headlights. Be nice to her~? Also patient, as she may be... difficult.]

[Private//Hackable with effort]
There... I think I did it right...

Why do you have to record this, again?

In case I forget someone... I-I have to make sure I have a list so I remember...

Why not just write it down?

... Um... It's inefficient... Anyway...

Miss Megumi
Vivio
Risa
Kana-oh, wait... That's right, she left...
Youko
Yoko
Havoc
Hiyori
Guy
Chrono
X
Shiki... Nn. No. He doesn't get one. I'm not weird. He's weird...

Is that everyone...? I think so...? Ah, there's more people than I thought... I'll have to find keys that suit them all...
[/private]

Um... When you have Christmas gifts to give to people what are you supposed to do with them...? Do you just give them to the people, or is there more to it...?

This holiday requires so much preparation... I-It's almost a little overwhelming...

[Voice Post]
Uwaahh... Why have people been looking at me so strangely...?

I'm surprised they only started doing it now, honestly...

...?

[Accidental Voice Post//Grey=Paracelsus]
[Rustling of pine needles like on a Christmas tree can be heard]

Are you sure this is the right kind of tree? She said it had to be "pointy"... Maybe a cactus...?

Have you ever even seen a cactus before?

Y-Yeah! Back home... Somewhere... Where was it again...?

I'm fairly sure it wasn't supposed to be a cactus.

... It's h-heavy...

You were the one who insisted you needed to drag me along to cut it down in the first place.

... Will it fit through the door...?

[Voice Post//Grey=Paracelsus]
Uwaah... I can't find any trees small enough to fit in the apartment...

Does it matter what kind of tree it is? Maybe you could just purchase one instead...

Nn, I'd rather just get one without all the hassle...

... But isn't it more trouble to cut one down?

... Maybe...

Hm? What are you doing with that paper?

Making a list... Ah, Paracelsus, you have to tell me what you want, too, so I can put it on the list~!

[/Voice]

[The rest of the post is a picture of a handwritten list (that I'm too lazy to make/scan), done in rather awkward but still somewhat legible handwriting. Strikes were written down and erased thoroughly.]

[Voice Post, Grey=Paracelsus]
I-It's so noisy... And there's so many people outside... Ah...

Don't let them touch us! They could be plague carriers...

Uwaaaah....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[OOC: Go ahead, violate her personal space~. Touch anything but Paracelsus if you want to stay in one piece, though. He's a big axe, and she can and will use him if anyone tries to touch him without permission. Grab the key in her head, though? She'll probably just flail helplessly~. And Travis once told her she was in a video game but she didn't really get it, so no threat there. So go on ahead~.]
