FFVIII
So I'm finally playing FFVIII. I have a problem. A real problem. A real Squall/Zell problem.
I'm not really sure why, either. Just...is...
And yes.
Who knew?
To further this problem I'd just like to let everyone out there know that there is not enough Squall/Zell fic, especially not well written.
I don't even want to think about what that may mean for me six months down the line if I still have this problem.
I didn't even expect to really like Zell based on the characterizations I've seen in fic of him thus far, but I just started playing the game and he is so sweet. I just...I'm not even like, obsessed. Its not like Squall where I curse Square Enix for making a man hotter than any man that will ever live. I just like him.
And on a ranting note, I don't get this Rinoa thing yet. I really thought I'd like her based on how many people seem to adore her and what I heard of her, but dear god. She is so effing annoying. I want to punch her and Quistis in the head (ironically, FFVIII has made me like Selphie). I don't get the love story. I see a lot of Rinoa trying to hang all over Squall and him freaking out about it, but I don't really see the relationship developing. I see him with a crapload of issues. I see her whining some more. I see Squall concerned about Zell. Sometimes he's even concerned about Selphie. I just don't...buy it, I guess.
Perhaps it will make more sense before I finish the game. But yeah. At least Kairi and Sora is painfully obvious or subtley misleading (take your pick). He and Roxas are practically drooling on their shoes over Kairi and Namine. Sometimes I was afraid Tifa and Aeris were going to scratch each others eyes out for Cloud. And Cloud didn't end up with either one (granted, Aeris died and he did move in with Tifa) but he never ends up with either one, and does talk franly about liking Tifa early in the game. Even Yuffie's obsession with Vincent is pretty apparent, but Vincent's clearly obsessed with Lucrecia. But Squall? He just...stands there and changes the subject or starts freaking out over being a leader, but show any sort of feelings for Rinoa? Not really....It seems like all the other characters have this relationship in their heads (for no apparent reason) and are kind of forcing them together.
So I keep Rinoa out of my party as much as possible. If only because every time she speaks I want to bash in her head. Effing whiny bitch. Suck it up and stop being such a whore.
So...yeah. Zell.
Not that I'm over Leon/Sora. Love them. But if the FFVIII universe? Yeah...
Just had to share.
Love and goodnight.
PS - Am writing super smutty CloudxRiku story this weekend per request. Actually was the request. Something superly graphicly smutty. Will definitely not make it to Fanfiction.net for fear of getting account deleted. Love LiveJournal.
