I had forgotten this reveal - like I remember the plot point but I’d forgotten the kind of sad story about Bartz’s dad. Ughhh how can this game be so funny and so painful at the same time?

Although again I would like Marauder-type FIC about the Four Dawn Warriors, plzzzz

Bartz might usurp all the protagonists in the series by being…Bartz.

And dang, that werewolf dude is mighty fine. Dammit, I’m having thoughts of buying this game.

Preliminary roughs for Vincent’s design—the before and after of him.  He is somewhat tweaked from a hardened hitman to more of a scientist who’s been through basic training and knows how to hold a gun.  His outfit is inspired by victorian era cloaks, jackets and uniforms, as he is from a time removed from the main plotline.  He still has somewhat old fashioned clothes from when he first fell asleep after the experiments.  His headband has been turned into bandages for this design, from being a patient of the insane Dr. Hojo. 

I’ll talk more about him when I get further along in the design process, for now though…. rough sketches!

In which I shall do an all-nighter for my essay. While also intermittently playing Birth by Sleep >.> Hush, it gets my mind going… and then Duodecim. No, desist! Stay strong and diligent! 

….but Terra and Aqua feelings… 

NO. FRANKENSTEIN AND ITS PLACE IN BRITISH ROMANTICISM, TYING IN JANE EYRE AND ULTIMATELY H.P. LOVECRAFT. 

Just watch, I”mma gonna have hallucinations in the daytime where Cthulu ends up in Kingdom Hearts universe while Lightning shows up to turn it into sashimi.

I’m watching people on Facebook discuss not having their children immunised because of the ‘health risks’; which started from someone saying their child is on the Autism spectrum and she is reluctant to get him immunised before he starts school.

No, it’s totally okay, we don’t need people to be protected from preventable diseases and infections that are easy to spread, don’t be silly!

*headdesk*

VACCINES DO NOT CAUSE AUTISM. There has been one and only one study that showed any link between autism and vaccines, and it was so thoroughly discredited that The Lancet not only retracted the article, they formally apologized for publishing it. YES I AM SHOUTING and I will keep shouting until people GET. IT.

(Sorry Zeph0r, I am not shouting at you, I am shouting at the universe. And the media, who is really to blame for spreading this bad information through its love of controversy. Mostly the media, really

I stg, shouldn’t this kind of misinformation be criminalized? This is one of the most risky things for parents to do for their young’ins and to keep having it perpetuated is just…

zenfallon replied to your post: Cloud’s Dissidia storyline in a nutshell Cloud…

Until we find out that in Dissidia-verse, if you fade away you don’t go back to your homeworld >.> YET.

UM. UMUMUMUMMMMMMMM. no they do they do they do omg. well before the anti-clotis start that means tidus/yuna is equally as fucked 8’D

No no, hear me out. I thought that if the people who faded away go back to their homeworld straight away, then it feels to me like something’s been… diminished. Like, basically the people who got rejected by Shinryu won first because they went home before everyone else did? It’d feel to me that, meta-speaking, that if that’s what happens in the narrative, then it feels like the whole war is super pointless and that it really is just a fighting game. 

But obviously they don’t die! Who’d agree with that in SE?! This, to me, feels more like an opportunity for a sequel hook than to just have “oh everyone like Lightning and Tifa and Yuna and all the other losers get to go back home.” I want to think that shenanigans happened with Shantotto and Gilgamesh in the rift!
