Been walking on sunshine these few days, because
farfello is back and
risax is coming home tonight and REUNION, AT LAST! *beams* I can't believe how ridiculously happy being in the same country as my favourite people makes me! Also, we had an extended-family birthday-celebration last night and man, I always love these extended family gatherings, because: OH LOOK, RELATIVES! ♥ I was sitting next to my cousin (we both love Orlando Bloom and we first connected in fandom over Fruits Basket yaoi), and oh, it was a great evening. We were talking about going to Japan, and I told her
Ikebukuro was a great place to go.
Her: You mean Otome Road?
Me: ♥___♥ YES!
Her: You mean it's
real?
Me: IT'S ABSOLUTELY REAL! ♥
And she was, "Have you listened to Arashi?" and played
I Want Somebody for me. I fell in love with that song almost instantly. ♥ I love new music! ;)
Despite the fact that the exams are impeding and it scares me half to death when I'm thinking about how little time I have left, there will always be time for fandom! ♥ Actually during exams there is even more time for fandom, because I tend to stay at home to study and therefore actually have an Internet connection on hand more often than usual.
For little_ribbon:
This one's your reward! *grin*
6th Tales of the Abyss Dash Novel Scans
I can't believe this is the last time I will be scanning a Dash novel! But as far as we know it, this is the end, so for the last time:
Some Enchanted Evening
and bookmark!
Forever Was In Your Eyes
Goodbye Doesn't Mean Forever
Okay, there's a lot of pain in these illustrations this time around.
The most pointless picture ever to grace the pages of the Dash novels.
As far as I'm concerned the only one who'd be interested in this picture would be Guy! For the fontech!
Well, Jade is in it, but we've all seen better...
FACE DOWN A LION - brave girl.
Sometimes I wonder, if Asch hadn't been so insistent on fighting Luke in Eldrant, would he have been able to defeat all the Eldrant guards, without being tired out by the fight with Luke beforehand.
It's time to say goodbye.
LOL YOU KNOW, I WAS EXPECTING LUKE BUT YOU KNOW THIS WORKS TOO.
guy/fontech OTP?
natalia! :D she looks so determined and brave there. and it makes me feel kinda strange, thinking of how i kinda hated her when i first saw her in the game.
... that last picture. ;___;
XD Though in my opinion Luke is the love of Guy's life.
Natalia! YES SHE DOES. *beams*
You hated her? You're not the only one: several other people I know hated her too, but she gradually grew on them.
I think only I and someone else on the community are open Natalia fans.
XDDD Natalia and I are I KNEW I LOVED YOU BEFORE I MET YOU, so I could always give you some of my Natalia love.
T_T I know what you mean. WHY WHY O WHY.
eh...heh...heh.... you don't know how many times i wondered about that... in fact... i get mad everyt time i think about how Asch... *hates saying the "d" word* = = d....... erm.. yea. AND the fact that there were SO many way to avoid it... like oh... say this one that you pointed out... or the fact... how Luke asked "well if i take the key what will YOU fight with?"
oh how bout... THE 10 bazillion other swords you have D<
that.. and if Luke would have just stayed and helped... (which really they only needed to hold out long enough for the group because they could surely find a way in (jades smart... he could figure something out...)
lesee what else... geez... just too many... FRIGGEN NAMCO DX YOU MADE ASCH ----- IN THE WORST WAY!!!! ITS NOT FAIR!!!
oh how bout... THE 10 bazillion other swords you have D<
*BURSTS OUT LAUGHING* OH YEAH. XDDD yeah, THOSE! I mean, I'll just use one of those.
and if Luke would have just stayed and helped...
I KNOW! D< but the both of them were IDIOTS, Asch all self-sacrificing and noble and Luke all I'LL LISTEN TO YOU AND DO EVERYTHING YOU SAY. The poor boy. He HAD a spine, but he gives in to Asch like ARRGHHH!!
...stupid Namco not telling us what the goddamn hell happened in the ending, sparking all these stupid debates...-_-Err, don't mind me, just ranting >.> I just really wish Abyss didn't have an open ending... ._.
EXACTLY. XD Though actually I'm quite happy with the ending the way it is. My favourite ending is that it's the both of them in there. But my logical mind tells me it's Asch who came back, which breaks my heart because I love Luke best. : (((((
It's okay! ;) I FEEL YOUR PAIN.
*misses her stash of Haru x Kyo fics*
Thank you so much for the scaaaaaaaans~ <3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3
My most favourite one if the Aschy one. t.t
I wonder the same thing with Asch...damn his stubborness to hell. D:
But the Tear and Van pic at the end is quite lovely and very sad.
Lots of sad scans, in fact.
So...I take it the Dash Novels don't offer anymore insight to the ending, huh?
That's okay, because we all know Asch is still alive and he showed up after Luke.Anyone wanting to burst my happy bubble will be fed to ligersD:Her: "... actually, yes."
Me: .... ♥___♥ ME TOO!!!
And from that day on we knew we could talk to each other about These Things. She's predominantly a Prince of Tennis fan, but maybe one day we'll share a fandom! ;) It'll be even more fun than it is now. XD
HaruXKyo? ;) *griiin* I actually never did read any fic, but I probably would have started out Yuki/Kyo and then gone on in every direction.
<3333! *beams* I'm so glad you liked! *beams* ;) You're most welcome! ;)
XDDDD I AM NOT SURPRISED. ;) You're Asch fan enough to make up for TEN of me. ♥
I KNOW! OH YOU SILLY BOY ASCH, damn your stubbornness to hell. And while I'm at that, damn you Luke for LISTENING to him for once when you should have just said STFU I'LL FIGHT WITH YOU. :D
Lots of sad scans. :( Scanning it made me go D: THERE IS NO LOVE! NONE!!! ... well, there is a little. But so much sad.
The Dash Novels are TERRIBLE with regard to more insight: they're basically just a copy of the script and everything that happens in TOA. The ending just rehashes the ending scene: no insight. GAAAH.
:D How about Asch showed up first and then Luke showed up LATER? :D
You know, the funny thing is, I'm first and foremost a Luke fan, but my heart tells me Asch came back. *CRIES* If you follow fomicry theory and all that stuff and Jade's reaction: it really should be Asch coming back.
OF COURSE my favourite theory is that it's VAN who came back, because of the whole THIS PLACE HAS A NICE VIEW OF HOD ♥ non-sequiter.
HARRY'S SO PRETTY WHEN HE'S HAPPY ♥ I saw that icon and I was: ME ME ME I'M GONNA WANT TO USE THAT ONE because MAN! I need to share HAPPY!HARRY with the world. ♥
I was rereading your old Spider-man fic the other day, and it was GREAT. ♥
But thanks for the scans! I wonder if this novel goes a little more in-depth into the ending? Or at least what happens between the last battle with Van and the ending.
The images are so... depression, though ._. Then again, the last bit of this game was depressing T_T
Really, I think he could have survived if he hadn't insisted on fighting Luke. I say his death was somewhat due to his own foolishness and his pride D: But still, T_T
*grin* Take your time! :) Took me ages to figure out photoshop, too. ;) Pretty much my intent for making all these scans available is so that other people will be able to take them and make pretty works with them! :D
I KNOW. T_T NO LOVE TODAY, ABYSS. JUST LOTS OF EMO.
SAME HERE. D: If he could fight all those guards WHILE still being all tired out, he could TOTALLY have taken them if he hadn't been fighting. SILLY BOY should have just joined the Luke-tachi, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN ALIVE. Although mad as hell and annoyed out of his mind. HAHAHA.
Tear is so beautiful~! *doki doki* There should be a law banning artists from creating beautiful people like Tear. It's hazardous to my health. T.T
There also needs to be a law to protect me from your Natalia!love. xD That picture of her is awesome! O.o YOU BRAINWASHED ME!
I love the page where Luke and Asch are fighting! It's gorgeous. *paws at the art* Nothing beats the scans of Tear, though. :D I love love love them! I saw someone using an icon of that drawing a while ago and I thought it was from a doujin, it's that gorgeous!
... who is the guy next to Tear clutching her err.. bosom? ^^; I'm completely serious! *clueless*
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! ♥ Have some FRIENDING RULEZ crack, because I honestly do need more sleep? xD
LOL LIEK HI! I WAS JUST LOOKING @ MY FRIENDSLIST AND I NOTICED U DIDNT FREND ME BACK YET!!1!! I LIEK SEND IN MY REQUEST FOR FRIENDING AN HOUR AGO, WHAT R U SLOW? PLZ FREND ME BACK SO I CAN STEAL UR SCANS AND POST THEM AS MY OWN ON MY GAY COMMUNITYZ! I PROMISE TO SUCK UP TO U IN EACH OF UR ENTRIES UNTIL U BECOME LIEK BORING, ROFLZ!!1!one!
It's Van, sweetheart. ;) It's his final form after you fight the last battle in Eldrant. You fight him in his normal form, then he uses the Lorelai power and turns into his HOT BATTLE SENSEI form. Which I actually found quite appealing, and was watching the final scene like ☆_☆ OH VAN. YOU'RE SO HOT. I could ALMOST, ALMOST, forgive you the whole badtouching thing. OOOH, WHAT A COOL ATTACK. ☆___☆ SUCH A PITY YOU MISSED ME. ♥
DUDE I had scanned this BEFORE you told me to stop scanning! ;) I love scanning when it's scanning THIS! ;) Anytime I have Asch, Luke, Tear, Guy, and Mieu, I can scan forever. Dist I scan with love, too. Jade only if he's pretty. Everyone else... comes distant second.
PRETTY DESU NO? ♥ I thought you might like it! ;)
BANNING ARTISTS? Should you not have a law obliging artists to create beautiful people like Tear? :D
:D :D :D ♥ NO ONE CAN WITHSTAND MY NATALIA LOVE. ♥ HEH HEH HEH. I'm surprised you like this picture of her: it's not one of my favourites, but I do like it. She's just so slight and PRETTY and BLOND and green-eyed and STRONG and ☆___☆ I love her like I would Wolfram.
I love the page where Luke and Asch are fighting! It's gorgeous.
XD TO BE HONEST I'm surprised whenever anyone likes this scan, because my heart belongs to the Atsuko Nakajima artwork of the Famitsu novels. ;) (The scans I did a long long time ago). THOSE WERE THE BEST. But I'm glad you liked! XDDD
HEH HEH HEH, that artwork of her in the field of flowers is the most gorgeous ever, isn't it? DOUJIN-PRETTY, EVEN. :D
.............................. SILLY LIN! You know I love you, dude, YOU don't have to beg for scans OR friending. *snug*
Van is so sexy when he's dying too. >_>And yes, oh dear. The last Dash Novel. I want to get just the last novel for that sexy picture of Lusch. I am so sad that there is not enough pictures of him. D:
Wait - what is it? Is it a poster of sorts? Or is it an illust? I can see folds on it.
Glad I scanned it in! >D I knew there would be SOMEONE who liked it! HAHAHA. I just scanned it so the set would be complete. ;)
I think Van is ESPECIALLY sexy when he's DYING.Oh yes! The artwork of Lusch is a mini-poster, hence the folds. There isn't enough artwork of him, most unfortunately! But I think this poster is a cosplayer's dream. So much detail to work from!
GUESS WHO?!
OH MY GOD!!! WHAT COULD HAVE POSSESSED HIM TO DO A THING LIKE THAT?!
DUDE PLS SAY IT IS A PHOTOEDIT OR SOMETHING BUT OH MY GOD JENSEN MY BRAIN JUST BROKE REAL BADLY.
As for the pics....
"Sometimes I wonder, if Asch hadn't been so insistent on fighting Luke in Eldrant, would he have been able to defeat all the Eldrant guards, without being tired out by the fight with Luke beforehand."
I've always wondered this... along with just about any other possible solutions to prevent Asch's death. Even though he was d**ing from the replication process anyways, his end seemed cruel and unfair. In my opinion, Asch is the most unfairly treated character in the whole game. His whole life, starting with his parents indifference towards him and Guy's deep-rooted hate, to being manipulated by Van and replaced by everyone he ever cared about is just too cruel. ;__; He deserved a happy ending after such a harsh life. *sigh* (And cause he's my favorite game character *cough* ).
sparkling,
XD;;
oncetwice before I leave this Earth ;-;Oh, Van. You're ah....shiny o.o But Tear is very pretty so it balances out this anomaly :D
You know what would've been another thing that could've happened in Eldrant besides Luke just staying so that both of them could fight? It's something really simple...
WHY THE HELL DIDN'T JUST LUKE LEAVE ASCH THE SWORD HE USED TO KICK HIS ARSE!?!
^_^
It's kinda sad that there's no Guy art in there when everyone got theirs.ToT But-- Wheee~! Kaizer Dist!!!<3<3<3 Then Lorelei!Van~!XD
