Author has written 32 stories for Final Fantasy VIII, Haunting Ground, Rule of Rose, Dragonlance, Claymore, and Final Fantasy VII. Okay. Info: I'm so fucking stoked about the new villainess from Final Fantasy XIII. Jihl. I've not seen a truly evil antagonist in the Final Fantasy series in a long, long time, so I'm excited. Like, really fucking excited. Let's see...what else? I curse. A lot. I hate my job, so I dwell in fanfic-land to remain sane during the seemingly eternal shifts chained to my desk. I'm still learning as I go, so whatever I post here is likely to be full of crazy grammar issues and shit like that. I slept through English in school, then did the same thing in college. I play with fanfics just because I'm often disappointed by how the stories of certain characters are treated by the original writers. And I'm gonna go ahead and warn ya: I'm a big Quistis Trepe fan. The very first time I played Final Fantasy VIII, I thought that she was the greatest character ever. What drives me fucking insane is the fact that her story was neglected by the writers. Over and over again, I see that intelligent women are fucked over in games, films, television series', etc. and it makes me want to scream. She was brainy without being boring, kind without being a pushover, feisty without being a bitch...and she was ignored. Grr. Other characters that I dig: Xena from her awesome tv show, Beatrix Kiddo from Kill Bill, Balalaika, Eda and Revy from Black Lagoon, Juri from Revolutionary Girl Utena, Rhett Butler and Mammy from Gone with the Wind, Mercutio, Puck, Lady Macbeth, and Othello from good old Shakespeare's plays...there are a few more, but these are the biggies that I return to again and again for various reasons. Anyway, since I get bored as fuck at work, my IMs are piteogann at aol.com and tipsywench at msn/hotmail.com. I'm always willing to argue character motives or random bullshit. If you've read Huzzah! and liked it at all, I would very much like to draw your attention to two things: Please click this link http://aurenare.deviantart.com/ and see what the wonderfully talented Aurenare has done with the renfaire version of Quistis. A very talented lady, I'd like to extend a very warm thank you to her for her tremendous gift. And if you're in the market for a great fic and you don't mind spending a bit of time with a Spanish dictionary, then please read her work. She really is brilliant. (Her livejournal drabble about S and Q still blows me away. Fucking fantastic. This fic touches on aspects of Seifer and Quistis that nobody else seems to have the balls to explore. Bravo.) And please watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxX2E31Yp8U. This a fucking great video by Skyhanhunter, who totally floored me when he said that he was working on a dub of my fic. (Okay, so in all honesty, I squealed like a little girl) I believe that he is recruiting voice talent right now, so if you would like to participate, there are links on the video for more info. I'm truly amazed that these guys thought enough of that fic to work so hard and show their creativity and skill. Saying thank you doesn't seem to be enough. Ooh! New ones! kevdzalkotl on livejournal sent me these pics after she finished reading Cards and Questions. Look at Quistis as a sorceress! Isn't she beautiful? And see how happy Quistis and Seifer could have been if they hadn't been trained as killers? Look at their expressions! Those smiles? God, I love it! Thank you E! She has so many more great ones, but I really liked these, so I wanted to show them off along with the wonderful works of aurenare and skykanhunter. http://keep4u.ru/full/2009/10/14/894c68b123e2709718deced2ef29cdf0/jpg http://keep4u.ru/full/2009/10/14/2e552e9105b124412a8751987581bcb7/jpg | |||||||||||
