This Was A Triumph.

[rionaleonhart]

Last night, I dreamt that cane_tie had sent me a copy of Portal for the PS2. I was quite distressed when I woke to remember that no such thing exists and I still have no means of playing it. I don't know why I was distressed, because I actually seemed to be inside the world of the game at points, and I am fairly certain that Portal would be a very bad game

what what

how bizarre

i also thought larsa was a girl. irvine not so much.

[rionaleonhart]

I feel I should thank you, because you made my dream-self very happy indeed.

[emmarrrrr]

hahaha, you're very welcome

I did not think either was a woman because I knew beforehand! Especially Irvine, because I had a friend who related to me the whole story of how she had thought Irvine was a woman for a while.

[rionaleonhart]

You can't escape the gender-confusion! That is clearly just not fair. Tell me you at least thought Kuja was female.

...blast, I should have included Kuja in the poll, shouldn't I?

[emmarrrrr]

OH GOD KUJA

hahahahahaha

[fallingscribble]

Wait, what? Kuja's not female? But how does that even work?

I asked some Knowledgable Gamer Boys if you should buy Portal even though it comes with all the other games, and they said Y.

[rionaleonhart]

Well, I can wait a fortnight and get it on its own, anyway. (It really annoys me that there's no version for the PS2. ALAS. I am so not a PC gamer!)

I saw Irvine and thought 'ah, the traditional ridiculously pretty boy with pretty long hair who is loved by all the fangirls'.

[rionaleonhart]

Well, VIII was my first Final Fantasy and my first Japanese videogame, so perhaps I just didn't know enough to expect pretty long-haired men.

This is Larsa, by the way.

[dracothelizard]

Well, I suppose the fact that neither Irvine (nor Larsa, by the way) were scantilly dressed would help in assuming they were guys.

And Larsa does look rather androgynous.

[averysmallthing]

The GameFAQs boards (which should be avoided at all costs, or else you might LOSE YOUR SOUL!) say he's got boobs and a goatee. Larsa was fun for the GameFAQs fanboys, only really not, because they all got their little fanboy crushes on the new female character, and then "she" became a "he" and they began questioning their collective sexuality. FUN!

That is excellent. Of course, women who fancy Larsa have to deal with the 'HELP ME, I'M A PAEDOPHILE' conflict. Larsa messes with everyone's sexuality.
