I know this may not be what you're expecting with this title, but I gotta ask something. (Frankly I'm not even fully sure why I feel I need to do this.)
But, I recently managed to find translations for a bunch of K. Haruka's doujinshi, and went on a reading binge, but I gotta say, I'm a bit torn on how I feel about them. The art is beautiful and her stories are just pure awesome, but with very few exceptions, the sex scenes bother me. Don't get me wrong, they're really hot and all but, Cid just seems really abusive, and Vincent lets him do whatever just because he doesn't feel like he has the right to refuse. Even when he does refuse, Cid still doesn't stop. Typically, when your lover says, "No, don't." Or "That hurts." You should probably stop. I mean, Vincent even hits him a couple times, and tells him to stop, and Cid tells him to stop being difficult, and flips him over. That just doesn't seem in character for him... right? I know I sugar coat Cid a bit, but I don't want to think that he's sexually abusive. He did have that whole thing with him being a dick to Shera, but that was really the only circumstance of him really being mean. Am I alone with this, or am I just over thinking it? There's no way I'm gonna stop reading them, those parts just kinda bug me. (I think the only thing outside of the sex scenes that bother me is Vincent actually liking Hojo in Hell Masker. Just, no.)

What is Cloud? Nobody really knows.
So, as much as my mom annoys me with her snide little comments, and mocking most of what we're watching, sometimes she really cracks me up. I'm watching Advent Children, and mama waltzes in for the last half of it. Upon seeing Cloud, she refuses to believe that he is a man. Swears up and down that Cloud has to be a woman, because he's too pretty and is perfectly clean shaven. Of course, she has no problem believing Cid and Barret are male. Hell, she even believes that Vincent is a man (even before he spoke), but nope... there's no way. Cloud has to be a woman. After a while, I'm pretty sure she's just being a troll, but it's still amus
The naming of Barret
So, I was testing out the PS3s ability to play PS1 games, but still wasn't able to save. There was a cluster of compadres around the den, watching me play FF7 and was throwing out names for the characters. One of them suggested I name Cloud, "Sexy Bitch". Unfortunately, this wouldn't fit. The compromise was to name Cloud "Sexy" and pass "Bitch" down to Barret. Because this is the trail of logic our brains follow. This turned out to be a brilliant decision. I had forgotten that for a good chunk of the beginning Cloud is hounding Barret to give him his pay. So, this led to many many scenes with Cloud saying, "Where's my money, Bitch?"
What's the deal with sprites?
(That's right, goin all Seinfeld on ya'll.)
Alright, this is gonna seem out of the blue, but can someone explain , or demonstrate or whatever, the difference between 8-bit and 16-bit sprites. I thought I knew, but some things that I thought we're 8 are apparently 16 and I can't find a straight answer. I get 4 and 32, but those others elooooode me.
SSB Valenwind
So, first a bit of back story. I just got Super Smash Bros for the 3ds, and as some of you may know, you can make your miis into fighters. However, since there are three types, and I was a brawler, I decided to make Vincent be my gunner and Riku as the swordsman. (In case ya hadn't figured out I'm a nerd yet. Lol) Any who, this led to me goin, "Hey I could have one each of the remnants too." Cause why not? Now, another fun pastime I seem to have with smash is watching the computer fight each other. So I decided Vincent should fight his kids. Team battle, three on one fight between Vincent and the remnants,

I really don't like K. Haruka's portrayal of Cid. I remember reading most of her doujins online ages ago with a constant frown on my face everytime Cid tries to have sex with Vincent and he's all "No, no!" ugh.
