keep your proverbs short and sweet
like the lantern on a tree, your burden bright
Someday I'd like to complete these sites, but don't hold me to it:
Per Aspera -- A small site to Abarai Renji of Bleach. Despite the fact that he's generally a hot-headed idiot
(this is shounen manga, after all), there's more to his character than anyone would expect at first glance.
Renji has deep and complicated relationships with many characters in the series and a story wrought with strife and
going up against impossible obstacles (hence the corny Latin title I choose for the site). And he looks damn good with his shirt off. Who doesn't love Renji?
This site should be a small, text-heavy tribute to my favorite Vice Captain.
Elysium -- Mint Adnade of Tales of Phantasia is probably your quintessential Staff Chick/White Mage.
She's a kind and sweet cleric and love interest of the game's hero, and therefore every bit your stereotypical female RPG lead. But you know what? She's a
stereotype done right. I just really love her, and the support she provides throughout the game
(also, Time Stop is fucking deadly). Elysium will be a small dedication to her.
Smoke & Mirrors -- I tend to like heroes more than villians, but dammit, I love Bleach's Aizen Sousuke. He's a manipulative bastard who
has authority over an entire army of Shinigami/Hollow hybrids. And he has tea parties with them on occasion. Deliciously evil. But Bleach is probably going to go on forever, so I have no
idea when I can solidify information for this tribute. But it will happen!
Swan Song -- Luke fon Fabre and Tear Grants of Tales of the Abyss are great characters on their own, but I love them so much more together.
I considered doing shrines for each of them individually, but I realized how redundant it would get. Their stories intertwine in a way that their individual development
relies on the influence of the other. Say what you will about their relationship, but it can't be denied that the changes Luke and Tear go through are a result
of that very relationship, regardless of its nature. I love both characters and their interactions with each other, so I want to make a small tribute to both of them
and the relationship they share.
Divine Intervention -- Okami is one of the most unique, hilarious, fun, beautiful, and touching games that I've ever played.
A bit surprising
for a game starring a wolf and her pervy, bug-sized artist companion. I absolutely adore this game, and I'd like to make a general info site about it.
Mmm, mythology.
Other stuff I might do:
Castaway -- revived layout archive/portfolio thing. Whenever I get more space.
Move the World -- Final Fantasy Tactics Advance junk.
White Flag -- George de Sand of G Gundam nonsense.
Morning Glory -- Yuna of FFX, maybe when I force myself to finish X-2.
Untitled -- Lockon Stratos of Gundam 00 in all his stupid sexy glory.
Stuff I'd like to expand:
Blossom -- Poor Momo. She ranks at the top of character polls but a good chunk of the
fandom hates her.
I think people are missing the part of her story where she was completely manipulated by the person she trusted most in the world. You know, that
guy who screwed over the entirety of Soul Society? Her character is tragic, more than anything. I really love Momo,
and I'd like to expand this fanlisting into a
tribute to her.
Lost Time -- You gotta love a little girl with a gigantic axe. I was lucky enough to be approved for this fanlisting, and I'd
love to expand it someday.
Sunrise -- ...already has a bunch of extra content, but it reaaally needs revamping.
