I'm online JUST TO POST THIS!!!XDXDXD Thanks to
hhafiz for getting me into ToA mood.>.>;;
Anyways, when I was on Track 8, the last dungeon happenings reminds me too much of SaGa Frontier II's last Dungeon scenes.>.>;;
And it looks like the 5th ToA Drama CD is less angsty than the first ones. Thank Lorelei!
Spoilers for ToA under the cut~! Really crappy summary and AschXGuy fangirling.
And ARGH!GuyXLuke-ness, sorry...
From the beginning of the Drama CD-- Asch and Luke's dream. It's more like a poetic version of Karma.XD<3 It's lovely, if only I can find the right english words to translate it...
Let's start. Asch and Luke were able to remove the shouki (miasma). Luke gets his check-up and he finds out he's going to die whatever happens.x_x;; Asch gets some AschXLuke thoughts for awhile here as well...
Ion's memorial will be held on the next day and Tear was asked to sing the Fuka-- it looks like she did-- but they just flashbacked on Ion's death instead. Jade says Asch heard Ion's 'Thank you' as well after the memorial. So Asch appears.8D;;
There was an earthquake then Eldrant appears (just now?o_o;;) so they try to figure out HOW they'll reach Eldrant. (Kaizer!)Guy suggested they use Kaizer Dist RX, cause he believes that he and Jade could fix it with everyones help... Uhmm, Asch tags along with the party even as they fix Kaizer Dist RX?XD Anyways, more of Guy being a fontech fanboy.<3
AschXGuy thoughts can be made in between Kaizer Dist RX's restoration.8D Yes, I'm already planning a ficlet/comic or whatever.
Also, I cried as I listened to Track 5, or rather when Guy suggested to fix Kaizer Dist RX.T_T I can't help but remember my
kaizer_guy and my Saphir-san...
Saphir-san is surely alive~?8D *dances around happily* I can imagine him simply watching in the BG as Guy fixes KD RX.<3
Dist: My beloved Gaillardia's fixing his beloved big sister.ToT<3
kaizer_guy inside story.^^;;
After that, Luke asks for some of Asch's time and he takes him to meet his parents... And I just find a KINDER side of Duke Fabre (Wah, they changed him too much XD) he also tightly embraces Asch and he was all, "Chichiue..."T_T<3
Their pair convos that're supposed to be in Chesedonia happened in Batichul. Guy and Natalia moment is much sweeter-- though they just talk about the same thing (NataliaXGuy~<3). I really love that cause Guy gets to say that he wants to get to know Asch again.ToT<3 Then Jade... tells Anise about his past with Nebilim-sensei.oo;; Wut?
I don't know which track it was but I heard LoreleiXVan.8D Seriously.<3<3<3
The next day, they were off to Eldrant (yes, with Asch!), they fought and defeated Mohs there. Then more random soldiers comes. Luke said he's ready to fight but Jade says he shouldn't waste his strength... so he asked to be left behind... WHAT!?D8
Next was Anise and Arietta, Natalia and Largo, then Tear and Regret. I was expecting Tear to be the 2nd to the last to be left but I should be really thankful to BanaNamco for leaving a party of ASCHxLUKExGUY!!!XDXDXD
Synch was already defeated, but I was hoping for him to revive again to fight Guy... Anyways, Synch doesn't get a second chance. Instead, more random soldiers of Van comes in. Guy asks to be left behind. And Luke tells him, "Don't die..." which he also said to the other party members. Guy, like the others, says his last lines to Luke, "The servant will be sad to not have a master," or something like that...
Trust me, I was HOPING for at least a teeny bit of AschXGuy-ness before the redheads leave, cause this is my LAST CHANCE for some AschXGuy. (And the 3 gays SHOULD'VE been left for a reason!) Btw, Asch didn't speak to ANY of the people who were left back then-- yes, even to Natalia-- which was depressing (no AschXNatalia?).Xp
Guy: -- Asch!
Asch: What?
Guy: Take care of my friend.
Asch: ... Fine.
(I was going, "ARGH!!! GuyXLuke!!!" when I heard this, ahaha)
Guy: Alright, then as thanks... how does a nice meal sound? Guy-sama's Special Gratin. Of course, I can't let just make it for Luke, I'll make your part special as well!
Asch: Yeah...
(or did he said 'Guy...' with feelings of surprise, acceptance and LOVE?XD I was going giggly hyper at home when I heard this.<3<3<3 Thank you Asch and Guy for the AschXGuy-ness.<3<3<3)
Guy uses ShikouBakuraijin.8D *giggles* Stan!<3
So we're left with Asch and Luke... to fight Van-sensei?XD
"Jade, Anise, Natalia, Tear, Guy...! Please don't lose. I won't loose as well. We'll meet again. We'll ALL meet again!" Luke shouts as they ran. Asch and Luke gets to talk-- "That's not like you, you should be saying DRECK and the likes," and it seems Asch lightens up to Luke in the Drama CD. Awww.<3
Asch gets a monologue (he's thinking). His thoughts about his replica and how he won't loose to his replica for the 2nd time...!
So I'm guessing they'll die together?>.>;;
(I'm really thankful I don't hate AschXLuke now...)
Asch and Luke VS Van!8D As the 3 fought, Asch stops his attacks... guess what? It seems BIG BANG is starting.x_x;; Van takes the opportunity to attack Luke (who's going to aid Asch) but Asch covers Luke...
Sensei kills Asch!Dx Well, it's better than the random soldiers.>.>;;
Luke shouts Asch's name and his 7th fonon goes haywire.XD The power of LOVE I mean-- the 2 Hyperressonance!XD So Luke gets to fight Van one-on-one. he first uses his Lost fon Drive HiOugi, then KougaMesshouzan (Rending Saber)! Van was surprised that Luke was able to use Asch's ability (aww, I wish the game lets Luke use that D8). Lastly, he uses SOUGAZAN (Fang Blade)... OK, now that's just romantic. *fangirls VanXLuke*<3<3<3
Wow, Sougazan beats Van.>.>;;
Van: The... first... skill I taught you...
Really romantic VanXLuke.<3<3<3
Tear comes in as Van was dying to say her lines to her brother. Luke asks Tear to take everyone out cause he still have something to do...
Tear: Promise me you'll come back, I'll be waiting... always...
Luke: I promise...
Tear: Luke... suki...
(she really whispered it!oo;;)
I love the Drama CDs, they choose the best narrator!XD Natalia!<3<3<3 Anyways, the narration was lovely... "Luke and Asch did it!" Guy said and more squee-ing for me! At least he thinkig of both 2 redheads here now. Unlike in the game where he only thinks of Luke.Xp But since the situation here is different-- I guess the game is ok.^^;; The gang didn't know that Asch died here...
Asch and Luke's dream again. I get goosebumps when I listen to it. ARGH, I wish I could also get that BG music.x_x;;
1 year later. The gang searches Eldrant's ruins for Luke and Asch. Guy was the only person who believes that Luke and Asch will surely come back. Tear says she'll sing again, cause she also believes they'll be back...
And again, Tear wasn't able to sing. From afar they see someone walking towards them... "I promised" he says when Tear asks...
We're left clueless in the ending AGAIN.8D;; But that ended nicely, I just wish they let Tear sing.Xp
Luke becomes a Gynophobic.8D It seems Luke is still long-haired at this time.<3
Luke buys stuff with the party's money (sweets!) and Tear scolds him.XD HOSHIT, DEKAMELON!!! Luke is so DEAD!XDXDXD So as punishment, he gets to work cause he's full.>.>;;
He sees Natalia and Anise. More scolding from the two females.>.>;; They ask him to do the LAUNDRY! (aw come on, Luke, it's not that bad XD) So Luke made Natalia cry for telling her that her cooking sucks REALLY BAD. Wow, AniseXNatalia.o_o;;
Asch comes while Luke's playing around with the laundry. So Asch teaches Luke what a real MAN is cause he's being intimidated by the girls. He has no STRENGTH! It's enough that men just eat, take a bath and sleep... What the hell?oo;; Asch being silly and stupid is fun.8D;; So Luke agrees and runs off.
So Luke comes in where Tear is, "Have you come to apologize?". He clears his throat and asks if dinner is ready.>.>;; (you know bossy father-like attitude?) He said he didn't do anything wrong awhile back. He was hungry so he ate period. So now, *ahem* after eating, he'll take a bath, *ahem* then go to sleep.
So Tear kindly agrees with him and he thought it was a success.XD "I'm so sorry, but dinner and the bath isn't ready yet... *evil Tear-mode!* but do you want to SLEEP now?" Luke doesn't understand her until she casts Innocent Shine on him.XDXDXD
Luke: It's no use, Asch... *dedz*
Kinda reminds me of TalesRing the Abyss whenever Luke got some guests over.>.>;; He ALWAYS gets killed.
Guy at last!*o*<3 He finds Luke playing with the laundry water again, "Female work must be really tough. Huh, Guy?" wrong person to talk to.XD Guy is USED to female work (and he's WAY better than them)!<3 So Luke tells him what happened...
So Guy tells him that to get on the girls' good side, he should be KIND. So Luke thanks Guy as he leaves and Guy gets angry cause he's still NOT DONE TALKING!!! (Notice, how Luke mentioned Guy's name sounded 'GAY'?8D) Anyways, pervy Guy.>.>;;
Luke visits Natalia and apologizes. He tells her that her cooking is really tasty (wrong move Luke). Of course, Natalia was really happy and cooked for him. (Whoa, creepy food sfx) Luke was haing second thoughts so Natalia was hurt again cause she thinks Luke's NOT going to eat it (she's nearing tears again). So Luke eats it and felt like puking. Natalia was asking if it was tasty or not-- Luke couldn't hold it in and said it was TERRIBLE.XD
Natalia ran off crying again. Wow, a really crybaby Natalia.o_o;; How come she doesn't get mad at Luke?XD Anwyays, our hero dies.
Luke: It's no use, Guy... *dedz*
Next is Jade. Luke tells him what's his problem. Jade tells him that he lacks CHEERFUL-NESS.>.>;; Well, Luke praises Jade, "You're a glassed evil man and all, but I think you're kinda nice at times!8D" what Luke said is kinda like that. Jade just wants to think of the last as a compliment.
Luke finds Anise... reading a letter from her parents. She gets pissed off at her parents AGAIN cause of how they spend money.>.>;; Luke tries to call her and Anise goes evil mode until she realizes that it was Luke-sama. OK, that just scared Luke and he ran off saying it was scary~!XD
Luke, you just saw the REAL side of Anise.>.>;;
Next day-- they're about to go and the girls knock on Luke's door. Guy always comments how women are creepy~.>D The girls gets pissed and scared Guy off.<3 Yay, gynophobic!Guy!8D
Someone comments... that women are creepy... It SOUNDS LIKE Asch.>.>;;
End! I was expecting that Luke will really freak out with the girls in the party-- but it looks like it's just how Luke became scared of women.^^;;
In the Seiyuu Talk. The BGM is a music from the radio show~!*o*<3<3<3 Yasunori Matsumoto's still talking about the Tartarus (sauce)... Ah, Nakata Jouji too!8D<3
I was really happy with the last ToA Drama CD. I really enjoyed it cause the pairings I wanted came out (even LoreleiXVan even for just a moment<3) and 'specially AschXGuy of course.<3
Damn, I miss ToA.>.>;;
~~~
ToA and ToI Sketchies!
(And ToI pic spam without cut)
Yes, no ToD! What the hell.>.>;;
No Spoilers, unless I suddenly talk too much.
Just a ToA Drama CD thought while they were fixing Kaizer Dist RX.<3
Everyone leaves Guy to fix KD RX, but Asch stays behind to help!XD
I let Guy wear his Kaizer!Guy costume...
... which probably explains the 3rd person in the pic.^^;;<3
My practice sketches of Spada and Ricardo (and the Sword Durandal, that's copied from the manga).
ARGH, why is Spada's name in tagalog!? It's so cool to hear cause it's in my native language (or it's spanish... whatever).*o*<3<3<3 Now what can I rename him if renaming is possible in ToI? Maybe BADING, like the other Tales charas I like?>D
Ricardo's scar... I can seriously cosplay Ricardo CAUSE I HAVE THE SAME SCAR ON MY FOREHEAD!!!XD What the...? You don't know HOW LONG I've searched for a chara with such a scar!XD I'm glad it's a Tales chara, but he's MY seme.D8
Ahehe, thanks for taking the time to look!8D
And tolerating my sudden inspiration swings...
Oh yeah, speaking about Abyss-- in ToDdc's Lion's Side, Lion get's the title 'Fencer of the Abyss' after defeating Arcana Ruins Barbatos!8D Though his 一騎当千 title sounds really cool, cause he gets this title after fighting the Boss-on-parade (Boss Rush) mode and he goes one-on-one with Barbatos! And he's the ONLY ToD chara who can get a title after the Coliseum's Rank 6.<3
So the NDS emulator WORKED in the current computer I rented today.8D
The game will probably work 2X slower in our compy at home, hahaha.XD
THIS JUST MADE ME SQUEE~!!!XDXDXD
Official Ricardo and Spada!!!XDXDXD
