WEEK 5 || your mirror ; afiko & kinto ; "gravity of love"
Aughhh, sorry that this is so late x__x
General: Your Mirror
(Current Count: 4)
I saw this at another icontest and thought it was pretty cool 8D Basically, you make an icon of the character who you feel is closest to you in terms of personality. It'd probably be best if the cap you use has them with an expression that especially reflects your personality. :) You don't have to explain how the character matches your personality if you don't want to. Other than that, no other restrictions (except for the usual rules, of course).
Image Provided: Male TCG-only Characters (Afiko & Kinto)
(Current Count: 4)
Same as the last one, except with different characters. 8D I'm too lazy to find specific screencaps (plus, I'm in a bit of a rush).
Here's links to TCG scans, as hosted by the lovely musogato:
♦ Afiko
♦ Kinto
Just click on the card name to get to the scan. :D
Remember, you may only use pictures from those scans (no outside screencaps, etc.). Textures, etc. are all fine, though.
Lyrical: Enigma - "Gravity of Love" (download?)
(Current Count: 7)
I'll use the songs you guys suggested ; A; It's just that I had already uploaded this earlier, and it's more convenient for me to just use it ^^;
O Fortuna, velut luna
Turn around
And smell what you don't see
Close your eyes
It's so clear
Here's the mirror
Behind there is a screen
And both ways you can get in
Don't think twice before you listen to your heart
Follow the trace for a new start
What you need
And everything you feel
Is just a question of the deal
In the eye of storm you'll see a lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key
To the gravity of love
O Fortuna, velut luna
[Woman]
The path of excess leads to the Tower of Wisdom
[Man]
The path of excess leads to the Tower of Wisdom
Try to think about it
That's the chance to live your life and discover
What it is
It's the gravity of love
O Fortuna, velut luna
Look around just people
Can you hear their voice?
Find the one who'll guide you
To the limits of your choice
But if you're in the eye of storm
Just think of the lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key
To the gravity of love
O Fortuna, velut luna
(lyrics from LetsSingIt)
"O Fortuna, velut luna" translates to "O Fortune, like the moon".
Remember, for the Lyrical theme, you must quote at least three CONSECUTIVE words from the song; place them in the "lyrics" section of the submission. However, you may quote TWO words if and only if you are quoting "velut luna", as it translates to three words. Bit of a loophole there. XD
