Sine Qua Non Here's the message- My friend has stolen the set of FFXII and wrote a story around it. (He wants it to be a movie, but calls that a farfetched dream. I agree. Airships and Dustia would be hard to film.)

| What Becomes of Ideals |
[Feb. 23rd, 2008|01:17 am] |
Title: What Becomes of Ideals Author: bemused_dreamer Fandom: Final Fantasy VII Rating: T (has one swear word in the whole thing) Character: Rufus, Reno
I had to badger this writer into writing this and you will be far from displeased with her results. Although the work is very brief and concise, she characterizes Rufus with such perfection and is able to capture every moment of his thought, his action, with words that are just so timely. To read her work is to read the masterpiece of an artist who meticulously crafts her literature like a sculpture-- she structures sentences so carefully, and every single phrase she uses seems to have a meaning or reason for being. You'll have to read for yourself to find out exactly what I'm talking about. At the end, you feel like you're so much closer to Rufus because of that deeper understanding that you get from her analysis of him. It's deeply touching and it made me relook at Rufus in a much more appreciative (and sympathetic) light. |

| FFVII: The One Who Wakes (1/4) |
[Sep. 10th, 2007|11:31 pm] |
Title: The One Who Wakes (1/4) Author/Artist: delladella & kimouski Fandom: Final Fantasy VII - Original Game Characters: Cloud, Sephiroth, some dead
The first part of a series, following Cloud on his journey to Midgar before the game. Really, really awesome, accompanied by amazing art. It is a WIP, but these fanartists are responsible and will be finishing it, for sure, so don't let that deter you! :D |

| FF8 rec : Yes (Rinoa, gen, PG-13) |

FF8 rec! Yes, by first_seventhe - (Rinoa, gen, PG-13) Absolutely awesome piece about Rinoa, para-magic, the Junction system and Sorceress power. The writing's excellent, the characterization's wonderful, the development's really well-handled, and both the attention to detail and the use of game mechanics are really impressive. |

| FF8 rec: Sidelines (Cast, Nida, Action/Adventure/AU, PG) |
[Jul. 15th, 2007|12:29 pm] |
Another FF8 rec!
Sidelines, by TransNomad -- (Cast, Nida, Action/Adventure/AU, PG) I cannot even describe how awesome this story is. It's an AU -- What if Squall didn't wake up in time for the Field Exam? -- and the summary is, "Nida saves the universe."
And it is so damn good. The writing's top notch. The characterization's utterly awesome. The story sticks close to canon while poking fun at the game. It's smart and funny and emotionally affecting and all-around wonderful. The characterizations, the mood, and the changes in the timeline are handled so well, I get a thrill every time a new chapter's posted. ...There hasn't been a new chapter posted in a while, but I'm hoping that'll change soon, and there's already 28 chapters up there to enjoy.
( An excerpt, from Chapter 7! )
( And another excerpt, from the same chapter! ) |
