Fics and Songs

http://www.crisiscore.com is up and running, for those who don't know! But still no English trailer. ;__;

Hooray for Welcome to the Black Parade and Crisis Core! X3 It sounds so much like a CC theme song, as Lisa discovered. Her wallpaper inspired me, and I just had to make this icon. Closest I'll get to making AMVs.

And oooh, After Forever's Intrinsic. http://www.metrolyrics.com/intrinsic-lyrics-after-forever.html It could mean so many things, and yet I always come back to some mad scientist pondering things out. Now I'm getting the desire to write some short ficlits/random scenes to piece together later involving KH Seph being tortured by Hojo. ;__;

I think I have the first draft of chapter 6 of the wing fic almost done. I'm debating whether the scene where Kala-Ansa goes to talk to the mayor should be in six or if that should be in seven. Six seems to be moving nicely and maybe it should be a calm chapter, without the villains showing up. It also may be the shortest chapter so far. XD;

I am amused at how it's totally turning into a KH version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney version only). XD; That was not my intention to begin with, but I'm actually not sure how I planned for the fic to go originally, since for some time I'd been aiming for a goal of a long oneshot. @___@; Trying to picture all of what's happened being condensed like that is ... wow.

Kala-Ansa, is, of course, Frollo. Sephiroth and Cloud and the clones are equivalent to the gypsies, with Seph in the lead role as the Esmeralda counterpart. Zack would be Phoebus, I guess, who in the Disney version was actually pretty cool, unlike the wretch he was in the book. That would leave Sun to be Quasimodo, in some odd way. XD; Though unlike Quasimodo, the outcasts in this fic do not really want to be part of the outside world; they want to be accepted as they are, or even just tolerated, and left alone. If I remember right, that is what the gypsies wanted.

For my own amusement, I tweaked the lyrics of Hellfire around the time the idea for Kala-Ansa first sparked from the song. If anyone is interested, they're below. Kala-Ansa is so off her rocker.


Priests:
Confiteor Deo Omnipotenti (I confess to God almighty)
Beatae Mariae semper Virgini (To blessed Mary ever Virgin)
Beato Michaeli archangelo (To the blessed archangel Michael)
Sanctis apostolis omnibus sanctis (To the holy apostles, to all the saints)

Kala-Ansa:
Beata Maria
You know I'm such a righteous woman
Of my virtue I am justly proud

Priests:
Et tibit Pater (And to you, Father)

Kala-Ansa:
Beata Maria
You know I'm so much purer than
The common, vulgar, weak, licentious crowd

Priests:
Quia peccavi nimis (That I have sinned)

Kala-Ansa:
Then tell me, Maria
Why I see him flying there
Why his ice-cold eyes still scorch my soul

Priests:
Cogitatione (In thought)

Kala-Ansa:
I feel him, I see him
The light caught in his sapphire wings
Is blazing in me out of all control

Priests:
Verbo et opere (In word and deed)

Kala-Ansa:
Like fire
Hellfire
This fire in my skin
This burning
Desire
Is turning me to sin!

It's not my fault

Priests:
Mea culpa (Through my fault)

Kala-Ansa:
I'm not to blame

Priests:
Mea culpa (Through my fault)

Kala-Ansa:
It is the winged man,
The demon who sent this flame!

Priests:
Mea maxima culpa (Through my most grievous fault)

Kala-Ansa:
It's not my fault

Priests:
Mea culpa (Through my fault)

Kala-Ansa:
If in God's plan

Priests:
Mea culpa (Through my fault)

Kala-Ansa:
He made the devil so much
Stronger than a woman!

Priests:
Mea maxima culpa (Through my most grievous fault)

Kala-Ansa:
Protect me, Maria
Don't let this warlock cast his spell
Don't let his fire sear my flesh and bone
Destroy Sephiroth
And let him taste the fires of hell
Or else let him be mine and mine alone

Guard:
Ms. Kala-Ansa, the winged men have escaped.

Kala-Ansa:
What?

Guard:
No longer in the cathedral. They're gone.

Kala-Ansa:
But how? Never mind. Get out, you idiot!
I'll find them. I'll find them if I have to burn down all of Hollow Bastion!

Hellfire
Dark fire
Now, Sephiroth, it's your turn
Choose me or
Your pyre
Be mine or you will burn

Priests:
Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)

Kala-Ansa:
God have mercy on him

Priests:
Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)

Kala-Ansa:
God have mercy on me

Priests:
Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)

Kala-Ansa:
But he will be mine
Or he will burn!


And yes, there will really be a cathedral scene. It will be very different from the one in Hunchback, though. XD And I am dying to get to it, which may be why I'm having such trouble getting through chapter 6.

The idea of Sun came because of Heaven's Light, which is meant to be part of the same track as Hellfire. So I thought of two people with vastly differing opinions on Sephiroth. And since the last thing I want is any freakin' Mary Sue, Sun is a child who idolizes Seph, but isn't clingy. XD And she never seeks Seph out; they meet by accident. And she probably won't appear after this fic.

Of course Kala-Ansa has to die. XD She isn't the kind of villain you can really bring back for more. I already have a death scene in mind, and some surprise twists involving the Master Clone at the end. X3

[livejournal.com profile] candy__chan's interest in [livejournal.com profile] 31_days has sparked some of my own, as seems to happen with her comms. XD I have found several that I'm nuts about because of her fics, mainly [livejournal.com profile] 30_friends. Anyway, the past week I've written three or four ficlits based on prompts from 31 Days. The prompts are daily, and they're so fascinating. A lot of them sound like Genesis, so it results in ficlits involving him. I decided to save the whole list, since it will be gone next month, and I might still want it for inspiration then. XD

Sometime I wanna do some stuff with Angeal and Genesis, as they seem to be the best friends that Seph and Zack also are. X3 The squee! Seph and Genesis are terribly fun to explore, but in the end I prefer Seph and Zack and Seph and Cloud. Angeal and Genesis would be neat, too.

I'm gonna let chapter 6 sit a while longer, but it should go up tonight. ^^

Yeah, I figured you hadn't. XD Genesis is probably pretty similar in it, though.

I usually do the one-on-one RPs with [livejournal.com profile] amanechan and [livejournal.com profile] cskazaam. ^^

LOL. I didn't interpret it romantically. XD

**nods.** I don't really think he does feel like he has to be the one in charge all the time, as his friendship with Zack goes on. I think he comes to feel like he can totally trust Zack and that Zack is mature enough to handle things himself sometimes. ^^ Otherwise, Zack would probably still be some amusing kid to him who wanders by and talks a blue streak. XD

But he probably does enjoy the fact that Angeal and Genesis really are almost on par with him as fighters. X3
