This meme was around a month ago or so, I think? But I didn't really do it because I didn't have time / wasn't in the right headspace / etc.

ASK A QUESTION it can be anything CFUD related, OOC, IC, Relationship, psychology, thoughts, whatever. I.E. My character's opinion of your character or maybe what you have been wondering about this behavior ( Read more... )

If Janus co-posted with the Princesses, what should the post be about. :D

OH GOD, I don't even know. There's a lot of potential for hilarity there, but I can pretty much already guess that it would involve Janus' pain somehow. His pain is always funny. So clearly, this must happen at some point.

If you could top me into apping from one of your canons, which one would it be and who would it be?

I would top you into apping Josh Groban in his Glee incarnation. Is that even within the rules? BUT I MEAN, COME ON, he loves a blowzy alcoholic. What's not to like? :( Otherwise, Graham Acker from Gundam 00. None of my current canons seem to have characters you'd app, or you aren't in the fandom anymore, or you already apped and dropped.

What are your forever canons out of all the series you've played from?

I WANT TO EMBRACE YOU GUNDAM <-- my entire knowledge of Graham

shit I wish I could play Josh Groban on the internet. ): HE COULD TELL PEOPLE TO STOP STALKING HIM and sending him weird nude photos and then go hang out with Stephen Colbert. Alas.

Uhhhhh. Honestly, my attention span is terrible, so I have a hard time calling something a "forever" canon. I mean, I played from Eyeshield for ages but the last couple arcs really made me sort of "eh" over it all. XD; But series that I could revisit again and again and not get sick of them are ... well, Wild Arms games. I love the games because the gameplay is similar and yet different to a lot of traditional games, so I can mess around with them a lot. Shadow Hearts is another one. Persona is a series I've only gotten into in the last two years, so I can't really ... call it "forever"? I don't feel as compelled to replay those games like I do with the other two ( ... )

What are your characters' dreams for the futuuuuurreee, if they have any.

Reply

takeupavarice February 9 2010, 16:25:32 UTC
ROBERT FIRST, since he's a bit easier. His dream for the future is constantly changing, though. At first, he just wanted to go off with Mal. :(d Now he's more ... hmm. He got a world-hopping pass from God and he's realized that he's still got a lot of stuff he needs to sort out for himself, so he's more interested in seeing the world(s). He's idly thought about going to Peter's New York and maybe looking into going to college. He likes learning new things! It could be interesting! But he gets bored easily, so it's a very "hmm" thing.

Akihiko wants to protect people and blah blah DARK HOURRRRR blah.

Janus isn't sure since, well. [He's dead in his canon.] Going back to Filgaia isn't an option for him! And he's not sure on what his options are. So right now, he's more trying to figure out what camp means for him and so on and so forth.

I don't think I've ever asked you this one before, so - one canon you love but won't actually app. What is it and why?

I TYPED UP A COP-OUT ANSWER AND THEN DELETED IT UH.

Kingdom Hearts prolly. My lack of impulse control tends more to the "I LOVE IT, I WILL APP IT RIGHT NOW!!!" but I think KH and YGO are the only two canons that I have had a Large fandom investment in and never apped in at cfud. . . . er, well, Harry Potter, but we try not to think of that too much.

KH is a canon I thoroughly enjoyed. I bought KHII and CoM. The ever expanding canon thing kind of bothers me, especially because it's so cross platform now that there is no way I can play all of it. Reapping bites me something awful. Also. . . I don't think any of the characters are good fits for my character type anymore! When KH first came out I played a broader range of characters than I do now, but my play style has changed a lot so :x

Do you have playlists which help you write apps or rp your characters? If you do, what are they?

Reply

takeupavarice February 9 2010, 16:52:10 UTC
Ahahaha, I hear you on that. :x

Sometimes! I had one for Adachi when I apped him, but it's on the desktop so I can't really list out everything on it. I remember it had "The Noose" (A Perfect Circle) and "The Wasteland" (Elton John) and a couple other things. OH, "What are Friends For" (Reel Big Fish), I REMEMBER THAT ONE. I have a bunch of songs I associate with Robert so he sssssort of has a playlist ("Quasimodo" (Lifehouse), "Let it Go" (Great Big Sea)), but that's after years of playing him. I don't really have anything for Janus or Akihiko.

Uhhhhh, I'll be boring. Who is the one camper/counselor you want most in camp and why?

How annoying does Janus find Maya?

Reply

takeupavarice February 9 2010, 17:04:22 UTC
REALLY, REALLY ANNOYING.

Well, no. In all seriousness, he doesn't think much about Maya. She's annoying when he talks to her, yeah, but once they're not talking? She's not really on his mind. He found Virginia way more annoying because what she said would stick with him and actually niggle at him and make him uncomfortable et all. It's not the same with Maya. ... and I mean, Janus worked with Dario and Romero. He has a certain level of tolerance in regards to annoyances.

Name the top five people in camp that Maya doesn't find annoying/ lame / whatever!

Reply

cosplaygiarism February 9 2010, 17:13:28 UTC
...oh god I don't think there are five.

...

I don't think there's one.

I guess Kitchel was okay! Roland didn't annoy her too much...Raven, maybe? Although I guess she does think he's lame.

Um. sob.

Okay, part of this is my complete failure at having her meet new people. But the other part is that Maya finds everyone annoying to one degree or another. I mean, even end-of-canon Virginia, a little! In that "Defender of Justice getting in my way I'm glad you're not dead" kind of way. Really the only people that she doesn't have that kind of relationship with is the rest of her team.

Are there any canons you love but wouldn't ever actually app from?

Reply

takeupavarice February 9 2010, 17:19:10 UTC
[slowclaps]

UM. Hmm. I hesitate on saying one because then I may turn around and actually want to app it, ahaha. Shadow Hearts was one where I went "oh I could never app that" and whoops. OH, WAIT, I love Okami but I could never app from it. Ditto Legend of Zelda - I will never app Linebeck, for example.

Same question back at you!

I didn't really do this meme last time either. :|a

Uuumm tell me about a dream one of your characters has had! In the "incoherent experience caused by synapses firing while he sleeps" sense, not the "grand goal" sense.

Reply

takeupavarice February 9 2010, 19:37:26 UTC
Oh man, uhhhh. ... uhhhh. Robert doesn't really dream much; my headcanon for him is that he doesn't really sleep much either, so. His dreams tend to either border on the insane/mildly-messed-up or be really bittersweet and mildly embarrassing. Neither are ones he likes to talk about. One of the more messed up ones he's had involves Tomo and fried chicken. He will never, ever talk about it. [/COPS OUT]

Tell me about Vesperia! How is it different from the other Tales games? (I've played Symphonia, Legendia, Abyss, Eternia, and Destiny :|d) Are there any really memorable antagonists? etc etc.

Reply

notmakingout February 9 2010, 21:10:49 UTC
Well, I've only played Abyss and sort of Symphonia (seen the first ~10 hours of the first game and read the manga, and seen all of the second game), so I cannot compare Vesperia to all of them. But in general! I feel like Tales protagonists on average are very... completely earnest and well-meaning, and often slightly dumb? And there's not really anyone like that in Vesperia. Yuri is definitely the black sheep of main protagonists, and in general the whole party (including Flynn) is on board with sarcasm and snark and friendly teasing. I love how the Vesperia party interacts a lot, possibly more than any other video game party ever ( ... )

I am so out of it so if this is incoherent, uh. whoops.

Tales of Eternia (Destiny 2 over here, boo) is kind of mediocre. I mean, I sat here trying to think about what I liked and ... I liked Keele a lot, he was a great character, and I thought the plot was interesting - it was the first Tales game to do the two world thing - but I really didn't care for the two main characters, Reid and Farah. It's been nearly 8 or so years since I've played it though. HOWEVER, it has this ridiculously addictive card game called WHIS. I couldn't get into the Final Fantasy card games, but man, I sat around playing WHIS for hours. It was ridiculous.

Also, I forgot Phantasia from the list and I love that game even if it's very 90s RPG-ish. And it has this summoner, Klarth, who is AMAZING and he fights with a porn mag so you know he's great.

What's some of the headcanon that you have for one of your characters?

I no longer have massive papers I'm working on or midterms to worry about or other stuff, SO. We should totes play this week. I WILL PESTER YOU TONIGHT. And then after we thread, I will ... probably owe you a long-ish response sob.

IN LIEU OF THAT, have a question. What characters really appeal to you? What makes you think "I want to app that character! I MUST HAVE THEM"?
