b. One of his/her best traits
c. One of his/her worst traits
d. How easy/difficult I find it to write the character

Quistis.

seifer.

(i swear, that's what i was going to say before i read the comments.)

(a) Um, that she's like me. No, really. First of all, she looks like me, which is entirely superficial. But we also share a lot of the same traits: a semi-precocious, talented, mature young woman in a man's world who can be extremely insecure and sometimes has a really hard time knowing how to deal with other people and doesn't really understand the basic nature of "feelings" and how to express them.
(b) Motivated, talented, efficient
(c) Desperate need for acceptance/approval
(d) Actually, it depends. Normally I find Quistis very, very easy to write. However, if it's a bad day, we have serious ~~arguments inside my head~~ problems.
(e) Well, Shine Like Gold is all about her, but I don't necessarily think it's my best portrayal - although maybe the first chapter is still pretty good. HNtDB has also been successful.
(f) Um, all the time. Finishing HNtDB, and my cracked-out Sorceress FFVIII Prequel.

Oh god, that reminds me of the Sorceressy connector story that I've redone the format on like five billion times. I know what I want to say, I have ALL THE META but goddamn if I don't know how to put it in a story format.

I might have to do something very strange, as I really want to tell this story. XD And now I've got the politician!Rinoa thingy in my head after being disappointed on a review of this story and wanting to make FF8 make sense.

But yes, I wanted to jump on the Quistis one, as I was the first poster. XD

~Cendri

(a) Snark. Basically. Ok, so I'll admit it in public: I wasn't a huge Seifer fan in the game. Basically, I thought he was a cock. However, when I got more into FFVIII fandom, I started to kind of like his potential as a character.
(b) That bizarre sense of honour that tells you he's not really a bad guy.
(c) Rebellious attitude; being a cock
(d) I actually find him really hard to write!! If I'm just going for snark, then yes, I can do sarcasm until the cows come home. But I find the balance of heroic knight / asshole / broken soul / arrogant prick really, really hard to reach. Plus, I don't think I've ever been able to quite understand his motivation, which doesn't help.
(e) Not really sure -- probably one of the snarky oneshots on

brokenprism
(f) He'll be showing up in the FFVIII Crackverse, and I am sure

irish_ais will be tempting me to write him again and again.

wanting to make FF8 make sense.

That's impossible. :P

I know what you mean about writing vs planning - I've got all of the meta worked out for my FF8 crackverse Prequel, honestly, I've got pages and pages of notes, but when it comes down to writing it in a way that doesn't read like a history book, I'm boned.

Rydia. :D

(a) Um, I loved her instantly. I usually like girl characters the best, and so far all FFIV had to offer was Rosa (yawn). And so when Rydia came in and saved the freaking day I was already cheering for her. And her character is so awesomely endearing without being perfect. Plus, she's easily the most powerful character in the game, pure-damage-causing-wise. (Yeah, I'll say it.)
(b) Optimistic; willing to overlook small things for a larger goal
(c) Easily frustrated; quick to anger (and watch out when you make her angry! Y HI THAR TITAN)
(d) She's probably the easiest character for me to write. There's enough depth to her that no matter what mood I'm in, something matches.
(e) Um. There are a lot of smaller pieces in

brokenprism that I think, together, make up a lot of her character. As for something specific, um I don't know.
(f) ~~I may or may not be collaborating with rosencrantz as we speak~~ Let's just say, I have plenty of themes for

mount_ordeals already.

Bitch I told her I wanted to collaborate too!! YOU WILL WRITE RYDIA/EDGE AND I WILL REFUSE TO READ IT I SWEAR CAUSE YOU MEAN PEOPLE DON'T WANT TO WRITE WITH ME I'll just go over and cry in my corner and NOT WRITE ANYMORE AU. *sticks out tongue*

YOU ARE KIDDING RIGHT BECAUSE THE PLOTBUNNY SHE JUMPED ON WAS THE ONE I'D HAD FOR THE KAIN/RYDIA I WAS GOING TO WRITE YOU!!

NO I AM NOT KIDDING YOU ARE MEAN AND EXCLUDE ME AND I'M CRYING IN SORROW.

YOU PUT BABY IN THE CORNER

I HAD TO EXCLUDE YOU BECAUSE IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE A PRESENT FOR YOU, YOU TARD <3

WHATEV WE ARE IN A FIGHT CAUSE NO ONE EVER COLLABS WITH ME

OH WELL UH FINE! WE ARE IN A FIGHT THEN AND UH RYDIA/KAIN SUCKS!

YOUR MOM SUCKS

UM

UM

SHUT UP!!!!!1

I WIN!!!11!!!1 eleven

DO NOT. YOUR MOM WINS.

WELL THAT IS TRUE AS WELL

.....

HEY STOP MAKING ME LIKE YOU AGAIN, WE ARE FIGHTING!!

HA HA. YOU KNOW YOU CANNOT RESIST ME, ESPECIALLY IF I HAVE NO PANTS.

YOU HAD BETTER BE WRITING KAIN/RYDIA WITH NO PANTS CAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY I AM FORGIVING YOU FOR EXCLUDING ME FROM THE COLLAB

....

DAMN YOU AND YOUR NO PANTS

ER
UH

THE COLLAB HAS TAKEN A HUGE, HUGE TURN INTO TL;DR EPIC TERRITORY.

THERE WILL PROBABLY STILL BE A LACK OF PANTS THOUGH.

OR YOU AND I CAN COLLAB ON SOME PORN. I NEED TO WRITE MORE PORN.

I know! This was a tough call. It was either, 'collab with Katy' or 'write a fic for Katy.'

If it's any comfort, I think you're going to be getting a monster of a gift once we're done with this shit. The outline itself is already longer than most of my short fics. And, uh, maybe a few of my long fics.

Holy shit, the outline is actually really fucking long, now that I look at it, and it's only about 1/8 done.

HOLY FUCK WHAT I JUST GOT MYSELF INTO...

Uh, anyway. If you want to collab on a fic, though, I'm down with that, just, I am having trouble coming up with the plot idea myself. So, start spewing out your plot bunnies at me, and gimmie your email, and we'll see what might happen there. ;-)

I warn you though. I LIKE EDGE! Just.. not necessarily with Rydia. Or women, in fact. XD

OMG WAIT WHUT SO WE COULD WRITE EDGE SLASH???

IF YOU WANT TO WRITE PORN, WRITE MORE QUISTIS ZELL PORN I TELL YOU

*RAWRS*

EDGE BAHAMUT SLASH FTW ON SO MANY LEVELS

HNtDB is going to have SO MUCH MORE PORN than we'd originally planned.

...not hard when we'd originally planned, what, a single kiss?

I think each chapter from now on should have at least one sexually charged moment!

STARTING WITH RINOA/FUJIN OMG.

WITH FUSOYA WATCHING??

PARTICIPATING YO

EVEN BETTER, YOU'RE ON

SORRY I ALREADY HAVE 3 OPEN FICS IN MY QUEUE AND I SOMEHOW DON'T THINK WE WILL FINISH THEM BEFORE MY VACATION IS UP

(god, it is so good to be able to concentrate on writing instead of drawing for once. this fic production rate is INSANE)

BTW JUST BECAUSE I AM STOKING YOUR FF4 FETISH DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN LET UP ON HNtDB. I HAVE A POTATO GUN AND I KNOW HOW TO USE IT (I THINK).

AW, HELLS. DO YOU REALLY THINK YOU CAN HIT ME HERE IN OHIO FROM ALL THE WAY OVER THERE??

(um, no worries >.> I am strangely intrigued by the potential for Zell/Quistis porn. That alone will keep me writing on HNtDB. Look at it this way - we're a chapter in the plus already, and it won't be posted until next week. That gives us PLENTY of time to play around with Kain/Rydia/Angst/Woe.)

LoL so you were all over that Gippal/Edge fic that was floating around earlier??
