I tried not to keysmash

Been reading fics at decyphered, and there is TLR/FFXII crossover. It makes so much sense it hurts. I can even imagine that Rabanastre being part of Athlum. Oh my God. It probably does help that the idea of Torgal/Fran is very hot. Balthier, unable to skypirate for one reason or another (saving funds for repair/new ship/hiding from a warrant), can run a pub similar to Warrior's Honor. Maybe he is really the bartender at Warrior's Honor, being incredibly gay to avoid detection. Vaan is Pleasant Young Man mwahahaha because I don't care about him.

Best for all: BASCH CAN BE EMMA'S HUSBAND. Yesyesyesyesyes.

*googles* Okay, Wikipedia says the FF12 team visited TURKEY for inspiration. Ha. HA! It wasn't like we weren't just saying yesterday that Athlum reminds us of Istanbul.

Okay I'm being too excited. Need to... get back to work... Basch/Emma OMG.

Oh, hi. I'm a nice, balanced person. Really.

FF10 was AMAZING. But trying to play it after TLR was tough because... "hey, I didn't realise the whole battle system was so stupid," mostly. TLR spoiled me with it brilliant battle system. And the reduction in graphics levels was hard to take in.

Ah, KH. I stopped before the final area/place/thing because I think I got distracted by sidequests and then never finished. I never got really into the game because it's got lots of FF links and the only FF I've played are 8, 10 and 12, so the FF7 nostalgia factor meant nothing to me. Plus, although the whole game's very cute, the Disneyness isn't something I enjoyed, not being a Disney fan and therefore going O_o whenever Donald Duck appeared on screen. >_>" I prefer my graphics shiny and hot. XD

The girl who's posting gamescripts on DW seems even more insane about TLR than I am, a thing I didn't think was possible before. She's screencapping EVERYTHING and has all the sidequests sorted in folders, and all that. I think that's what I need to do, too, for quick and easy reference.

If you don't start on the outfit soon Dave will be sad!

You wouldn't happen to know a really rich guy who wants to randomly pay for an insane person's living expenses, would you? For a scientists who specialises in cloning?

*holds up sign: WILL HEADTILT FOR MONEY*

Ah, yeah, the graphics drop is sad. That happens when I try and replay FF8--I adore the game but my eyes bleed for a while.

I found KH sort of diverting although I suck at real-time fighting stuff; KH2 is like the designers thought 'you know, we could make this premise vastly weirder'. I enjoyed the game but it is utterly batshit crazy by the end of it.

Yeah, I was impressed by the scripts! I don't have the dedication to screencap every single line of dialogue in the way she seems to. And it entertains me--there may not be many TLR fans out there but man, there are *dedicated* ones.

Yes, yes, Dave will sadface at me. I know. Maybe this weekend, if I can drag myself away from screenshotting and making icon bases long enough. :P

I wish I knew people like that, but if I did then I suspect they would have a queue of supplicants a mile long. I could definitely do with some clones, though.

Yup, I'm much more happy turn-based as well. SO4 was quite difficult for me. =/ Luckily most battles were okay with just buttonsmashing.

I would do what she's doing if I had the time. Apparently she works 4-days week so that probably helps. I'd love to be translating more doujinshis too, but that takes forever. It's the time factor again.

Dave says you should stop staring at pretty Rush on the screen and start making pretty Rush. XD

Gah, damn. I thought you might have a better chance since you work in IT-ish stuff. Engineers are always poor. And extremely stingey. :(

[storme]

Yep, I was button-bashing most of the way through SO4.

Hmm, another day off a week would be awesome. The trouble I have is that on weekends I just want to hang out with the SO and relax. Getting around to actually *doing* things isn't always the most appealing option. :P

I am *also* staring at pretty Dave! And pretty other characters too.

Alas, my corner of the IT world is not the wealthiest. And I don't think I even know anyone at Google who'd be up for that, alas. Sigh. :(

I can imagine. That only means he should help you with the sewing so you can be doing it together.

Not even at Google? ;; Where are all the rich people gone?

I'm already writing Basch/Emma. Right now.

[storme]

Ha, he's already annoyed because the sewing machine is in the same room as the keyboard, and I steal his chair for sewing work. :P

Actually, that's a point; we have guests coming to stay at some point and I should get a shake on if only so I can actually work in that room. Hm hm.

I think they're in Tahiti. Or Fiji. They don't seem to be in Canary Wharf any more, anyway. :S

Huzzah!

[yuki-scorpio.livejournal.com]

XD (Um, I've used sewing machine on the floor before. It's possible and not too bad for short periods of time, but overall I wouldn't recommend it.)

Gah. I knew I'm on the wrong continent! I'm gonna go get a lottery ticket tonight. =/

[storme]

:D Good luck. If you win, buy me something shiny!

[yuki-scorpio.livejournal.com]

XD If I win more than £10!

*points below on class & BR explanation* Does that sound about right?

[storme]

:D Then I wish you *extra* good luck!

*nod*

I am now poking around the wiki again, though, boggling anew at game mechanics I didn't really fully grasp the complexity of. This game is so complicated.

[yuki-scorpio.livejournal.com]

It's one of those games where you can stumble your way through or play obsessively over and over and still enjoy it. I definitely stumbled my way through it. Even now I still don't understand most of the mechanics. XD Or maybe I just don't care enough to investigate! There's too much to learn. @_@
