    Saga Frontier 2 Perfect Works Scanning/Translating Progress Thread

    I'd like to, yes, if that's all right. I'll get better with practice, I promise. :'(

    I think Rain Strife should get his own compilation title.

    Saga Frontier 2 Perfect Works Scanning/Translating Progress Thread

    Okay, so, I just started on page 70 ('cause that way I figured I wouldn't be stepping on any toes) and unless anyone has any objection I'll claim 70-90 for now. I like structure, so I'm just gonna post a page at a time as I finish them; this is all of p70. I am so damn rusty it's not even funny...

    Would you like that hypothetical scenario in doujinshi form, or in (long but incomplete for the time being) fanfic form? :)

    Remake or Reboot of FFVII

    Right, I get ya. And I think there are plenty of ways to read it now that Crisis Core has happened and we know more about him. But I think if they had originally intended that, the end of DoC wouldn't've been so ominous. And I do acknowledge this is speculation, but I don't think it's completely...

    The Love Triangle Debate thread of KNEEL BEFORE ZOD OR SUFFER HIS WRATH (ignore the opening posts at your peril) (Round 6)

    Weighing in with everyone else re: Cloud and Tifa. Girlfriend and I have been together for eleven years (and counting), and not only have we had our share of epic fights over stupid shit, but we went through the seriously-ill-possibly-dying thing, also. It isn't fun even when you already have a...

    Remake or Reboot of FFVII

    I can't be the only one who thought the end of Dirge was setting him up to be a New Villain. I don't think that's a far-fetched assumption; if nothing else, we'd only ever seen Weiss act as a villain at that point, and Genesis calls him "brother," at least in the English (never played Dirge in...

    Remake or Reboot of FFVII

    All right, but the end of Dirge still doesn't make any sense with the way he was characterized in Crisis Core. So I still think they originally had different plans for him that changed some time in the development process.

    Right? It's terrible but in such an over-the-top way it kind of comes back around to amazing. XD

    Remake or Reboot of FFVII

    Of course they did: $$$$ In all honesty they were probably just going to make a game with Genesis as the final villain, only Dirge got crap ratings, so they made that a prequel game instead so that they could still use Sephiroth in the marketing. Given how different his characterization was in...

    ...If we're talking badfic now, has anyone else ever encountered "Immortality in Fickle Affection," aka the Kooshball penis thing? KH-verse, but there's a lot of, er - well - there's someone named Cloud, at least. Link for the curious. I would advise not drinking anything while reading this...

    Girlfriend and I were actually talking about this over dinner. Cloud's one of those characters you kinda have to put effort into understanding, I think; he's not easily slotted into a particular stereotype, so getting to know him's more like getting to know a person, rather than a character. If...

    O_O I didn't realize Snowfields actually FINISHED. Shit. I'm gonna have to go read the whole thing now. XD Let's see, other nostalgia... Anyone read Guardian1's stuff? "Go Not Gently" was my absolute favorite of hers, but that was FFIX... "Sunshine in Winter" was also good though. :D

    OMG SNOWFIELDS. Now that's a fic I really would like to reread. Curious to see whether THAT stood the test of time. I remember being particularly impressed by the fight scenes.

    There's a part of me that would like you to test this theory, but I'd feel compelled to read along, and I'm not sure that would be healthy for my sanity. <--that was @ Tres Frank had a fuckton of weird pairings that for some reason seemed very sensible when they actually happened in the story...

    My go-to scene for "no this fic is actually terrible" has always been the scene where he's angstily pole-dancing, personally. But the cutting is also awful. :lol:

    ........................I was actually just about to use "Conflicts of Interest" to prove a point over on CxA about how different interpretations of characters can still be totally supported by canon. Her Cloud is so fascinating and so different from, like, every other one I've ever read. ...I...

    I had awful taste, that's the only way I can explain it. I hated Cloud for awhile too.

    I don't THINK it came from Verderosa, no, but I could be wrong? IIRC he didn't make up last names for anyone unless he had to; I don't think he even made one up for Zack. I haven't read those fics in years, though. The only fanon surnames that ever stuck in my head were the ones from...
