Lots of Random stuff~
Jan. 12th, 2010 04:24 pm I'm kind of vaguely terrified of going back to school, because I wasn't able to avoid having early classes and I know I don't wake up to alarms anymore. And I have a freaking electromagnetics lab at eight in the morning.
The Persona plot that's starting at DDD made me realize two things. The first is an interesting parallel - Shadows in P4 have yellow eyes. Yellow eyes are also used to indicate Darkness in Kingdom Hearts - all Heartless have yellow eyes, and apparently travel in the Dark Corridors causes it if you aren't protected (by the Organization's cloaks, apparently - there's supposedly a scene in Re: Chain of Memories that says this). That gives us DiZ, Xemnas, Xigbar, and Saïx that have done so, though Saïx's eyes might just be for more werewolf parallels.
The other is that Gourry Gabriev is badass. Seriously. This is a guy with absolutely no magical power - the only one of the main characters that doesn't - who stood up to the Lord of Nightmares. A being who is one step above God. For those of you familiar with Dr. Who (which is how I figured this out, Zelgadiss was talking to Ten), think of the Eternals. For anybody who speaks D&D, think something at Overdeity levels. Ao, or the Lady of Pain, or something from the Far Realm.
Completely unrelated to the rest of the post: I has a new icon. It is Latin for "All your base are belong to us." Literally: All-citadel-yours (pl)-are-by us-owned.
Also, anyone know what a good fandom to transplant someone from FFIV would be? Cecil's been hanging around my brain and I need a male character at
permanent_way ...
I've discovered a fanmade World of Darkness game called Genius: the Transgression. Which is about mad scientists. And there's a PDF set up like a typical setting book. And it is generally awesomeness. I should see if there are any others like that...
