Journal - "FF7 Thoughts"

[leskuh]

So I just finished going through the Temple of the Ancients. Also, I think I'm horrifically overleveled, which is pretty rad, because I'm always like: "THIS BOSS WILL SURELY KILL ME OH WAIT HE'S DEAD ALREADY LOL."

I was mad when it happened to me, but whatever, I laugh over it now, especially now that I adore Yuffie. (And I make sure I'm leveled up enough ahead of time for the plot. Y'know, so I don't die or something. And I depend on materia way too much.)

I completely understand; it's hard to get into a ship when you're not completely sold on it. If you ever do want to read a Vincent/Yuffie fic, that's the one you should read. I could be biased, though, because the story hasn't failed to make me cry yet and I've read it a bunch of times already.

I'm probably wrong, since it's been awhile, but I kinda remember her freaking out at him because he was in a coffin and calling his story boring. I tried to get the scene again to see how much of it I remembered, but no matter how many times I changed up the party with Yuffie in it, I got ... everyone else's reactions (even Caith Sith, I think), except Yuffie. It was weird.

Can't wait to read it! I should probably replay Kingdom Hearts, or get around to beating it again. I started a new game a couple months ago, but I got stuck in Neverland because Captain Hook kept killing me.

By the way, I finally found something related to Barret/Tifa! It's here, and it's for the 1sentence challenge. I kinda made it my mission to find all the Barret/Tifa fics in the universe. I will probably fail miserably.

I don't think I was ever caught off guard by it, because I was pretty well spoiled for FF7 as I played KH first and then went crazy looking up back stories and game info. So I never felt any ill will for Yuffie, since I knew it was coming and chalk it up to her charm.

I should read it and maybe I will. Like I said, I fucking love Guardian1 so I know it's bound to be both awesome and heartbreaking at the same time.

I know she called his story boring, but I can't remember the freakout. :\

I think sometimes it depends on what position in the queue the character is? Maybe? IDK. Anyway, if they do remake FF7, I hope they get rid of the 'party is always split up' bull shit, because I like GROUP SCENES DAMMIT.

I am a PRO at the first KH. I know where almost EVERYTHING is in all the worlds (there's two boxes in Hollow Bastion that I just cannot figure out how to get to for the LIFE of me) and have strategies for every single boss that I have refined over time and basically me and the first Kingdom Hearts are SOULMATES.

I just finished reading them! SO CUTE! I also completely approve of this mission as it reminds me of my own desperate attempt to gather all Rhonda/Harold fanart into one post so that I can look at it all lovingly now and then and to hopefully inspire MOOOOOOORE.

I want to marry Guardian1's stories and have its children. Er, what?

Hmm. Maybe I imagined the freak out? It's been at least ten years since I've seen the actual scene. I wouldn't be surprised if I did. I'm infamous for making scenes up.

I thought about the position in the queue, as well, so I switched them up and nope, still didn't get it. :\ I hope they get rid of it, too. I always hated that we never got to see the entire group react to important scenes and situations and characters and ... all sorts of stuff, and it's a pain in the ass to replay the game just to see everybody's reactions.

Haha, I <3 KH, but I really don't know where anything is half the time. I have to constantly remember. I know how to beat the worlds and how to get munny, but that's about it. I'm still trying to figure out how to find all the baby dalmations, because missing puppies makes Leon me sad. (UGH, HALLOW BASTON, HOW I LOATHE THEE. I had a hard time getting anywhere, even with the strategy guide. I almost gave up, but Sora's mission to find Kairi and Riku owned my soul.)

YES, HAROLD/RHONDA FTW. I love them.

NOT IF I MARRY THEM FIRST.

Hmm, that's so weird. I was also wondering about what it is that makes certain characters speak at certain times and others stay silent, so it's weird that nothing you tried worked. Maybe it's completely random? IDK.

Haha, I like that we're basically assuming they're going to remake FF7, even though there's never really been any real response on the matter. But I think they stand to make OODLES OF CASH if they did remake, so I figure it'll happen sooner or later. Which is awesome, because I dig the idea of remakes very much.

And yeah, I would really love to see the characters develop equally, but I am so biased towards which characters I do and don't use and I'm pretty sure I'd kill myself if I had to play with like... Red XIII and Cait Sith just so I could see their responses - BORING.

I am so good at it. If I could put it on a resume I would. KH is basically the one game I KNOW I'm good at. I suck at pretty much everything else, though I fair better in RPG games, because it's strategy for a lot of it.

I know my way around HB pretty well actually, but it has a ton of secret little areas and it's hard to keep track of things a lot of times.

OH GOSH SQUALL AND THE PUPPIES AND YUFFIE THINKS HE IS CUTE!

I find my UNDYING AND ETERNAL love for Harold/Rhonda to be... really random and surprising actually! I always knew that I liked them, but somewhere along the way I basically realized that I LOOOOVED them almost as much as I did Helga/Arnold.
