Sheng Fui (and new icon post)

I just wanted cumuluscastle to see where her painting is now. It's under UV-shielded glass, just to make sure, although the room only gets indirect and tree-filtered sunlight.  

There is a distinct lack of cat on the perch, simply because I broke out the camera. Imagine a cat.
Aha. Behold a cat. Within scritch range when mousing. (If image is broken, it's here. What gives,DW?)




P.S. Why is FFXIII so painfully flawed yet excellent in parts? It reminds me of X-2; a curate's egg. Which is unsurprising, as they came up with XIII while working on X-2. 

I finally finished. Without spoilers, I will say that (a) Fang/Vanille pretty much makes up for any of the game's shortcomings for me (CANON! PLOT-ESSENTIAL F/F CANON!), and (b) it's a shame Vanille's voice was the one "miss" on the English dub. Her seiyu is better. But Fang's ...wow. 

Note: Please no late-FFXIII spoilers in replies; at least one person reading this hasn't finished.

It's funny. I feel about XII the way you do about IX. I am surprised you don't like it more, and you are surprised I don't like IX more!

Strong evidence of the fact that our tastes run on slightly different tracks.

Well, our favorites are IX and VII, couldn't finish VIII, and felt really let down by the end of X. Which, I think, easily proves the vast difference in our tastes. :)

I think I would have been all right wandering through XII, despite its lack of compelling plot, except for that one complete loser of a cutscene, which convinced me that Squeenix had jumped the shark horribly. We won't even spend money on other Squeenix games now.
