[Tales of the Abyss] 'Two Faces' (Jade)

Jan 08, 2008 05:39

Jade is a borderline sociopath awesome, this game is distracting me from more important things in life and I get all my titles from my playlist these days. Spoilers, blah blah blah, if you haven't gone to Keterburg and heard RANDOM EPIC EXPOSITION DUMP from Nephry re: Jade's past yet ( Read more... )

...That was lovely. Now I want to restart my ToA game. I never did get to finish it. x_X

This is perfect. I don't even know what to say. The voices were spot on, everyone felt real, I could hear each thought and each statement. The funny bits (my favorite: You might know this one: about the pot and the kettle in which one calls the other black) were laugh out loud and there were certain turns of phrase that were actually breathtaking. (He was a redundant child, so unlike Ion. Simple and completely true.)

This is gorgeous. I really hope that I'll be reading more from you, and thanks so much for writing.

Oh, and: Saphir broke my heart. How could I forget how much I loved this line: Saphir's words are jumbled and sticky underneath his tears.

Ahhh. I love it! OK, no more commenting for now.

Awesome ficlets!
As aforementioned, everyone's character was spot-on.
And awww, Jade being a hero! Precious :)

Very nicely done. My only problem was with the original data extraction bit, as I'm afraid it doesn't quite work like that. Otherwise, perfect.

Y'know, for the life of me I actually have no clue how it works. And by that, I mean: if it was state in the game, I totally blanked it out. o__O But thank you.

EDIT: EXCEPT DUH, THEY TOTALLY DID.

God, I'm an idiot. *head desk* That's embarrassing.

Hey, no worries. It's in the Fomicry Overview that was translated and I've managed to decode. XD It's a small thing, really, and I'm sure I'm the only picky asshole person who really picked up on it.

Tales game science defeats me, honestly, which is why I never bothered to write much in the Symphonia fandom. Everything actually DOES make sense, but is delivered through so much exposition, it makes your head spin. :P So thank you for pointing it out- I don't make a habit of rigorously researching my fic, b-but I certainly do like to have my facts right. Translations, you say? :D
