[001 - 078] Silent Night, Deadly Night



HERE @ nostalgiaicons

Well, I guess this also serves as my intro post to the community, so, um... Hi!
I started writing a fic inspired by a combination of the... first page, I guess, of Chapitre 198 and the awesome splash for Chapitre 201, where everyone's a kid, over the weekend, and I've now got the first chapter written. I usually post fiction without a beta, but I wanted to have someone check this over before I post it to make sure that it's relatively easy to understand and that I haven't messed up on any major grammar rules.
Any takers? (oh, and, it's roughly four pages in length, in case anyone was wondering, and is told sort of from Kurogane's point of view).

Thanks!

Title: The Only One For Me
Summary: AU KuroFai one-shots *it's been on FF.net for a while now*
Rating: T
Chapter Summary: Kurogane asks for Yuui's help to get Fai a White Day present.

All that glitters is not a real cut...

First, a lengthy quote (from here) to set the tone:

[Scene: Zeboim ruins]

Anyway, Elly flipping out has the nice bonus that she suddenly knows how all the computer equipment works, and she starts hitting buttons! This causes a large glass tube to rise up out of the floor, and then a young girl to appear within it.

This narration would make the obvious comparison to a troll doll, but everyone has made the obvious comparison to a troll doll, so let's just all agree that she looks like a troll doll and move on.

[...]

Shitan: This girl appears to be an artificial lifeform created inside the reactor. She was probably assembled in the reactor by using that series in the database in the control room... which means she's...

Stone: Our MacGuffin! [...] I'll just be taking that nanomachine colony with me, thank you!

During the drive to SoCal for Thanksgiving, acebullet and I started talking about Xenogears and its flaws, most notably - for this entry, anyway - characters who appear to serve no real purpose in the actual game: Emeralda and Rico. Let's ignore for the moment that one could argue this describes every player character but Fei, Shitan, and Elly, who are essential to the storyline on the first disc. I quoted the above because in the resulting discussion, Zach said the same thing about Emeralda: she's the MacGuffin, and otherwise insignificant.

On one hand, I have to protest, because she is involved in the Fei/Elly storyline, but... it's also true that the cell samples Krelian took from Emeralda - her "purpose" for appearing in the game - could have been taken from some bit of nanotechnology that wasn't humanoid and obsessed with Fei. Hell, Krelian could have just lifted more information from one of Kim's essays to accomplish his goal, in theory. Likewise, Kim and Elly could have died defending each other instead of their nanomachine daughter, as they did in every other incarnation.

All I can say in Emeralda's defense, reasonably, is that she's present to replace Elly as your ether user for gameplay purposes once you reach the second disc - not that there's much action on the second disc to begin with. She has a reason for existing, but her place in the storyline isn't absolutely essential as the other three are. She isn't even Animus. The storyline abandons Emeralda after you fight her at the Gate so far as I recall and only revisits her if you decide to run back down to Zeboim to look for treasure and happen to have her in your battle party. [edit: wait, was she part of the solution to the Wels problem on the second disc? Like I can remember these things. Emeralda's fate is to be society's petri dish.]

Anyway, she, like Rico, could be a casualty of the design process. So many things were. Sometimes I'm surprised we didn't all drop the game at Kislev and never pick it up again. :P

All that said, I like Emeralda, and do not object to her presence in-game, nor do I think she's purposeless; just that she could have a) been better developed, and b) been introduced with a little more... ah, set up? I don't know. I never thought about it, to be honest, but I also didn't think Xenogears was confusing - and I'm not sure if that's a mark in my favor or not, considering what people think of the game's execution. :P

I'm completely ignoring Rico in this entry - just like the game! :D But we already know he was screwed by the development process. Honestly, if they'd left Kislev out of the game completely, it would be better - not because Kislev isn't worth exploring, but because they didn't complete what they were trying to do there. Alas, axing it would have been extra work and time too.

Ha ha ha, now I've just offended every Emeralda and Rico fan there is, haven't I? But I have a reputation for doing that sort of thing.

It’s time to register!

The organisers are me and teh_feeny so any questions go to either of us via PM or email (addresses are beneath the cut)
Registration runs until 11th December and the full details are beneath the cut :D Have fun!

Hiya. ^^ First post here.
The scene just kind of randomly popped in my mind. There's really no spoilers at all ... it's kind of vague.
I'm in love with CCxSuzaku pairing, but there's not a romantic element here. Just ... an attempt of mine to grasp C.C.'s character, because this is my first time writing anything for Code Geass. Tell me how I've done at my journal!
Title: Not So Pizza Party

C.C. just couldn’t grasp it. Looking through the fogged window, she watched in complete awe … and abhorrence at a silly, careless act. It was disgusting, and really, C.C. was two nerves away from barging right in there and correcting their faults. She shook her head, her green hair moving about her back under her hood.

Read the rest/comment HERE @ my journal.

Some lawyer got shot to death right behind my parents' house. O_o Like seriously, it is SO CLOSE, like on the other side of the soccer field. Wtf, this does not happen in my neighborhood! D:

Sunday I went to Bozen to see the Christmas market.
And you get some pics.

Oh, two pretty news:
-) after a neverending online stalking, I finally received via mail the contract for my place in Antwerp! It's a furnished room -completed by bathroom and very small "kitchen"- immediatly next to the Campus. The rent is quite high, but anyway the University grants me some money -even it it doesn't cover the whole expenses for the room- so it's ok. There are still some things to set, but I'll sign it as soon as possible.
-) I bought my Christmas present, which is a MacBook Pro - 13'' monitor and 4 g RAM ♥ ♥ ♥. I haven't turned it on yet, partly 'cause it's a Xmas present and partly 'cause once I open it I must install each and every program on it, and learn how to use a mac... and I have an exam next week, so better wait until I have more free time!

I was searching for some Break AMVs and this one I found is really nice. Have a look ^3^

So sorry if I don't answer... ^^'

Merry Christmas, everyone! Well, I finally finished another AMV. This time to the tune of Orianthi's "According to You". Hope you all like it.

Fandom: Corbin Fisher RPF (se non sapete cos'è Corbin Fisher, siete personcine molto più virtuose delle suddette, chiaramente. Procedete oltre, anime candide.) (Nota: non cliccate sul link in pubblico. Davvero.)
Personaggi: Derek, Travis, Jeff
Rating: NC-17
Pairing(s): Jeff/Travis, Jeff/Derek/Travis, Derek/Travis
Warning(s): Adulterio, double penetration anale, tantissimo, tantissimo porn e una sembianza di plot angstoso.
Conteggio parole: 16420
Note: Tantammore a zephyrina e ellepi per la beta. Scritta per bigbangitalia
Sommario: Travis è un universitario all’ultimo anno e ha da un paio di mesi una storia di sesso con una matricola della sua confraternita, Jeff, quando vede per la prima volta Derek, un bell’operaio, lavorare per i vialetti della scuola. Gli ormoni impazziti portano i tre a un incontro più che ravvicinato e alla nascita di un rapporto teso, fatto di gelosia, sentimenti mascherati e sciocche manifestazioni d’orgoglio maschile, che rischiano di mandare in frantumi quello che di reale potrebbe essere nato, sotto tutto quel sesso...

Sembra un porno, ma non lo è!

Thought I'd share my Code Geass mep part I made back on November 6th.

It's one of my two parts for a mep group I'm running. The full version has 11 different parts all done by different people. I have two because of a member backing out so don't expect this video to get longer. Unless I decide to do the full thing.

Song: Break by Three Days Grace
Anime; Code Geass

I like this one alot. It does have some spoilers for R2's end so be warned. D:<

Everything's true *_* XDD

I received a pre-christmas package from lovelessinma today - it made my whole day!!! TTwTT ♥♥♥♥♥
