Today was a good day. I proofed a story for [personal profile] danchekker, commented with [personal profile] mako_lies and [personal profile] nal_rene, and edited my EPIC TIME TRAVEL FIC.

And then a I broke a cutie and and wrote an epic boss battle between Hope and and an ax-crazy Vanille. THE END

Ahaha, hooray! Breaking cuties is fun! Actually, just breaking characters in general is fun, who am I kidding? XD

Writing crazy characters is so much fun! And crazy homicidal Vanille is so an idea I could get behind. XD

D'AWWW

I loved that scene. It made me giggle all over the place. Which was nice, because most scenes in that game either made me want to cry all over the place or throw things at the screen. XD

(God, the scene with Fang and Sazh and the chocobos pretty much made me bawl...)

Keep it as an element of surprise, XD

(Although, I think the likelihood of me not reading your fic because of snippets is like... nada. XD)

Lightning is full of sanguinolency.

Lightning and Fang came to mind pretty much immediately.

EPIC.

That would be pretty funny. Hope would probably just be like =O

Por que?

Ahaha, no. I meant Hope would be like 'but why?' because of your Hope/Light aspect, XD

I really enjoy the violence in their relationship. I mean, first fic of them I wrote was them sparring and Fang beating the shit out of Light. It's actually something about their characters I really enjoy exploring.

Especially Fang. I mean, so much about Fang's logic is flawed. I mean: I'd rather destroy the whole world including you all, rather than see you become monsters. I mean, how in the hell do you get to a place where that seems like a logical solution?

Nice snippet. ♥ Really like the moment you've captured there.

I don't know. Fang is such a mystery to me, because she wants to save Vanille, but killing her is a good option? Like, a messed up childhood (being an orphan, growing up on Pulse, being bloodthirsty--

You know? What if it has something to do with Ragnorak being contained in her? Like, it makes her in pain or twists her emotions? The brands on the other people are controlled by emotion, maybe Fang's brand (which is warped and twisted) affects her emotions?

I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL. HERE. TO MAKE UP FOR IT.


He’s not very surprised to find her standing alone, truth be told. All the others are back in the house, watching Vanille fiddle with her robot, and he’s pretty sure he’s the only one who noticed Fang slink out. Shoulders hunched against the wind--or against reality--she stares out at the sea, and the railroad crumbling into dust.

“Fang?” he says and the line of her shoulders tightens.

She doesn’t turn to face him, just keeps staring. “Yeah?”

Her voice is even, perfectly controlled, but it’s lacking her normal personality, a hollowness there that makes him reach a hand up to grasp his necklace. It occurs to him then that he has no idea what to say--sorry won’t cut it, sorry won’t make it okay, and losing Serah can’t be anything compared to this, can it? “Fang,” he says, and reaches out to grasp her shoulder. “We’ll get them back for this.”

“You wanna know something about Cie’th?” she asks him, there’s no emotion to her voice, but he can feel the way her muscles tighten beneath his hand.

After a moment’s pause, he says, “Sure.”

For a long time, she just keeps looking outwards, no real movement except for the stirrings of her controlled breaths, and he tightens his grip on her till it’s almost painful. If he didn’t know she could handle it, he wouldn’t, but she can, so he does. “A Cie’th’s size is controlled by how big and strong a person was before they turned,” she straightens to perfect posture, and she stares up at the sky, and he looks down at her, and winces at the pain there, “Those little Cie’th? They’re the children, Snow.”

Truth be told, he’d guessed as much. But he waits, because she obviously needs--needs something, and maybe if he stands here, with her, he’ll be able to figure it out and give it to her.

“When I came of age at sixteen, I took over the orphanage, lookin’ after all the kids who’d lost their parents to the war,” she tells him, her voice still even, disaffected, but he can feel the almost imperceptible shudder than runs through her like a current.

Snow expels a breath. “Fang--”

“Don’t tell me it’s going to be all right,” she snaps, “Because it’s not. I made a promise, that day. To keep them safe. To keep Vanille safe. And I didn’t, I did the opposite.”
