Did you notice that the two great angels only have one wing each...?
According to a legend handed down in Nisan...
God could have created humans perfectly...
But then, humans would not have helped each other...
So that is what these great single-winged angels symbolizes...
In order to fly, they are dependent on one another.

Twitch with cheese.

And Dry, while morals prevent me from giving you the answer directly, I can give you a fairly oblique hint.
"Toilet resident"

Hint hint, wink wink, nudge nudge.
Dry: Still working on it? Well in lieu of recent discoveries, we think there's a typo in one of the clues so you can only advance so far.
But the one you're on is still doable. In fact, if you look closely, you'll find the hint you need.

Da hint...?
If the hint in your post is what I think it is, then I messed up somewhere else.
Ah. Dareon's post now becomes clear. Yep, dat's da hint.
Unfortunately, I messed up somewhere else. I got Cinder's move wrong. All this time, I had the move wrong.
Forgive me if I feel an urge to scream.

Up on the roof
OOC: "Toilet resident?" Hmm...
Aha, I've got it! Urinal cake! Falco's rank is "Urinal Cake!" Wow... that must be one messed up army.
Anyway, since the round's still open I can't help but add a little more to my story.
- - - - - -
Ryogo watched as the sun slowly sank lower in the sky. Only a few more hours and it would be completely dark. This wasn't exactly something Ryogo was looking forward to, but with Aeris, Amethyst, and Billy here his odds were a lot better than if he was alone.
Right now the four were resting atop the roof of one of the few remaining buildings. Aeris, Amethyst, and Ryogo were taking advantage of their relative safety to relax, resting up in case they had to face another dragon. Billy was an entirely different story. The young gunman was standing on the edge of the roof, eagerly trying to pinpoint the source of the haunting song that was still floating through the air.
"I don't get it," Pham said, "What's his deal? It's just a stupid song." The red-haired girl stood up and walked over towards Billy, looking intently at his face as he surveyed the ruins of Zanerth. "Sure it's kinda weird how it's coming out of nowhere, but so what? We should find another jeep or something and get to those guys' castle already."
The desire to reply to Pham's comments was strong, but Ryogo forced himself to ignore the girl. He was alone and unarmed in a city full of dragons and the last thing he needed was for his only companions to think - to know - that he was crazy. It would be hard, but from now on he'd have to resist the urge to talk to Pham.
"Ryogo?" Aeris suddenly asked, looking up at him with her intensely green eyes, "Did you just say something?"
"Huh?" he asked, his eyes automatically darting to Pham. The red-haired hallucination looked back at him, a puzzled expression on her face. She didn't know what was happening either. "Um, no," he said, "I, uh, didn't say anything. Why do you ask?" His nervousness was evident in his voice, he could tell. He only hoped that the others couldn't.
"I thought I heard something," Aeris replied, a slightly worried frown on her face. "It sounded like a girl's voice, but at the same time it sounded like yours. I'm not sure what that means."
"I didn't hear anything," Amethyst said, "Are you sure you didn't just imagine it?"
"I don't know," Aeris answered, "I don't know." The flower girl's voice drifted off as she sank into deep thought. Ryogo started to worry that she might be able to hear Pham too. But what would that mean, he couldn't help but wonder. If Aeris could also hear Pham did that mean she was actually real? That she wasn't just a figment of his imagination but something else entirely. Ryogo raised his eyes to the young woman who'd been accompanying him since the dark dungeon. Pham looked back at him and shook her head, a strange sadness in her expression.
"Hey!" Ryogo suddenly called out, jumping up to his feet and crossing over towards Billy, "Any sign of your mysterious singer yet?" Out of the corner of his eye Ryogo saw Aeris and Amethyst also turn their gazes towards Billy, proving that Ryogo's desperate attempt to change the subject had worked.
"No," the platinum-haired young man softly answered, "But she's out there somewhere, I know she is." Billy turned around and started walking towards another side of the roof. As he passed by Ryogo he spoke one more word, so quietly that the wanzer pilot wasn't entirely sure he hadn't imagined it. "Emilia…"

Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round Five - The Return of...
Someone already gave away that clue.. ^_^ Re-read one of the posts on this page, I'll hint it off with 'It starts with, 'in lieu of the situation...''
That's all I'll say.

Where in God's name did Krizak dig up that name for that move? Every FAQ I've found refered to it as "Flame Torpedo".

The results are in! Four out of five agree that I suck!
Sorry about that, guys. Everything had been going wrong today, it seems, and the first thing that did so was my alarm, which I forgot to set. :P By the time I woke up, I had fifteen minutes to get to work. Then I had to stay later do to the constant lateness of Andrew (Why he hasn't been fired yet is beyond me...) and then I had to go to my great-grandmother's birthday dinner. But now, I'm finally here...

Act Five, Scene Three: A Painful Decision
The host screamed as he awoke, a loud, piercing cry that caused the objects in the room to shake violently. After a few moments, he stopped, and began to survey his surroundings. He was lying in a small room with powerful stone walls, and his arms and legs were tied to the frame of his bed with leather straps. Probably to prevent me from leaving before they talked to me. Not that they'll work... he thought, and he pulled at the straps that bound him.
They didn't break.
"What?!" he cried outloud. He pulled on the straps with all his might, but to no avail. "No! I'm not even as strong as my contestants anymore! I went through all the pain and agony of their emotions for nothing! Their energy has only delayed the inevitable... and now if I remember correctly, I only have hours before I dissipate like the others..."
"Ahh, I see that you have finally joined us, dragonboy..." The host raised his head to see Roland standing in the doorway, watching him intently. "Tell me, now, what exactly are you? The bastard child of woman and drake?"
"No, I'm actually a crystalline construct created by an elder race in an attempt to make their own god." The host tried to reach for his pants pockets, but it was no use. If only I could get him to untie me...
"Riiight. Whatever you are, mate, it appears your suffering from a severe hangover, if you're creating wild tales like that one." He walked up to the bed. "Come now. You can tell me. I had been hoping that you were something that another group cooked up to help us beat the buggers."
"Hehe... right now, I don't even have enough power to break these straps, let alone fight a dragon. However..." The young man suddenly stretched out one of his wings, so that the wing claw was embedded in the leather handle of Roland's hunting knife. A quick twitch of the wing pulled it out of it's place on his belt, and the knife slid down the wing into his waiting hand. By the time Roland had drawn his gun, the draconic boy had cut his right hand free, and was reaching into his pocket.
Pulling out a small white crystal, he smiled at the man pointing a gun at him. "I would love to stay and chat, but I'm afraid right now I have to be somewhere that I really don't want to go to. So long, Roland, and may your battle be victorious!" He threw the crystal against the ground, and the crystal shattered in a brilliant white light. When Roland could see again, the winged stranger was gone.

Kyo: Earlier in this round, I set the precedent in counting votes until I officially closed the round, and it would be contradictory to do differently now. However, it didn't make the slightest difference in the end result...
Two on One: 13 damage
Disciples of Wind: 17 damage
The Reluctant Ones: 21 damage
Magic Blades: 28 damage
And so the Magic Blades are once again eliminated, as we move into the sixth round. What startling revelations will be revealed there? Stay tuned!

It never really happened!
"Ah-cha-cha...that's some good stuff!" Ivan passed the bottle to Kaze beside him, having just partaken of his first underage drink. His face was already flushed and his speech was beginning to slur.
"I...*hic*..remember this song Zidane taught me, way back when we were in Alekshandreeeea!" Vivi hiccuped as he rose to his feet. "Wanna lishten?" Everybody was carrying on their own conversations, but he began to sing uncertainly anyway.
Way back when, in the times of old
A knight sought treasure better'an gold
He rode all day and he rode all *hic* night
a burning torch his only light
And he rode and he rode 'till dawn's first light
a song to keep his heart alight
And better than gold it was, he said
the certain charms of a princess's bed! *hiiiic*
Vivi flopped down to the floor, unconscious. Ivan could almost swear that he saw circles of red below the Black Mage's now crescent-shaped yellow eyes.
"Can't hold his liquor" Kaze gave a furtive grin toward Ivan as he took another swig from the 'Dragon Juice' bottle.

ARGH! Anyway, enough quoting Bowser. You guys are really mean, you know that? The very first round after we regain Contestant status, you guys give us the boot...AGAIN.
Well, just so you guys know, I'm going to do my utmost to take someone down next round. BWAHAHA!!!

Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round Five - The Return of...
Dry: Take it easy, take it easy. Had there been R-Votes this round, for all anyone knows, the outcome may have been completely different. I more than half-expected to go out myself, with all the beans I was taking. @_@ Just because you've been eliminated doesn't mean you're not good enough. It means A-Votes worked out mathematically in someone else's favor, so don't get mad. I think you did a great job overall, and deserved the second chance you got.
