- I'll update this space... when there's actually something to update.

About Me

Pen Name: Primary Antagonist. I wanted "Antagonist," but someone already took it. Oh well. Two-word names sound cooler anyway.

Gender: Male. Yeah, that's right, I have a Y chromosome.

Typical Attitude: Sarcastic, with a dose of humor on the side.

Fan Base: Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3, Fire Emble

My Genres: Either Humor/Parody OR Adventure/Suspense. I'll generally avoid making romance the primary focus of my stories, but it's almost always present, if not the primary focus.

Likes: Adventure stories, parody motivational posters, pure canon, the soundtrack to both Persona 3 and FES, my OTP (Persona 3: Minato Arisato / Yukari Takeba)

Dislikes: the Yukari/Mitsuru pairing (see below), yaoi/yuri/slash/femmeslash/etc., political ads in movie theaters (I go to the movies to get away from the world! Stop dragging me back into it!)

Wants: A redone version of FES (Come on, Atlus. That was a horrible joke. Now give us the real FES. I know you're hiding it from me.),

Pairing Orientation: 100 percent pure, undiluted canon. No yaoi, yuri, shounen-ai, shoujo-ai, slash, femmeslash, or whatever else the drooling fangirls and fanboys call it now. Just pure, straight, non-perverted het. Don't like that? Too bad.

Current Rant: Why video game protagonists always sacrifice themselves to save the world. Why? Why does the character that I've spent so long developing and playing as have to die?! By God, if I'm going to play your game for 120 hours or more, you'd better darn well not kill me off at the end of it! (Atlus, I'm looking at you...)

Favorite Male Character: Minato Arisato (Persona 3) - because he is whatever you want him to be. He develops based on your actions, but has enough of a personality that he's not just the player warped into the game. In all honesty, he's just an amazing character to play as, and he doesn't deserve to be killed off because Atlus didn't want to bother making a real sequel. :(

Favorite Female Character: Yukari Takeba (Persona 3) - she's awesome. I know most people like either Mitsuru or Aigis better, and I don't care. When your girlfriend is willing to fight her way past her teammates and risk the end of the world a second time to bring you back from the dead, that's when you know she cares. And when I say "cares," I'm massively understating the point. (Yes, Mitsuru does this too, but she waits until Yukari has decided to fight before stepping in. Yukari would have fought with or without Mitsuru's help - even if it was suicide.)

Pairings I Support (OTPs in bold)

Kingdom Hearts

Sora/Kairi - it's just so fluffy that it's impossible to resist.

Riku/Kairi - with slight reservations. It's actually fairly tragic, because you know that Riku will probably destroy himself, yet he's willing to risk everything to save Kairi.

Roxas/Namine - two intelligent people who aren't supposed to exist and aren't supposed to feel try to beat the odds and survive. What's not to love?

Persona 3

Minato/Yukari - the closest thing to an OTP I have. It's incredible. Most people hated Yukari after FES; I actually respected her more for what she did (technically, what she tried to do). Besides, Cybele is the best healing Persona in the game, hands down. Mediarahan + Amrita + Spell Master + Lv. 99 Minato + Max Lovers S-Link = victory.

Akihiko/Mitsuru - better than Minato/Mitsuru. Akihiko fits better with Mitsuru than Minato does. Besides, Ailiat was a weak Persona, while Cybele was awesome incarnate. (After I got Cybele, I used her for the rest of the game. After I got Ailiat, I kept her for all of one battle, then fused her into something useful.)

Junpei/Chidori - she's the first girl he honestly, deeply cares about. He takes a bullet to try and save her, and she sacrifices herself to bring him back. The fact that Chidori dies makes this pairing last: it's not what is that you think about, but what might have happened if she had lived. It's a lot like Tidus/Yuna, for anyone who's played Final Fantasy X.

Ryoji/Aigis - another tragic pairing. The girl who exists to destroy Shadows falls in love with the Shadow she was meant to destroy. The boy who exists to bring about the Fall wants to stop it, but knows that he can't... and he's sorry that she has to suffer. Angsty, but in a good (read: not emo) way.

Tales of Symphonia

Lloyd/Sheena - 'cause Colette annoys me, I guess. I dunno.

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones (FE8)

Eirika/Seth - Poor Seth. He's intelligent, courageous, honorable, kind... and he falls in love with someone he's sworn to protect. He's torn between love and duty, and he can't have both. On top of that, he doesn't choose love like most people in his situation would - he chooses duty, even at the cost of his personal happiness.

Ephraim/Tana -

Innes/L'Arachel - Mix one arrogant prince who thinks he's the center of the universe with one self-centered princess who knows she's the center of the universe and you get a lot of laughs.

Franz/Amelia -

Colm/Neimi -

Joshua/Natasha -

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn (FE9/10)

Meh, I don't really like these characters that much. Then again, I didn't get close to finishing Path of Radiance, and that's where most of the character development takes place, so... :\

Pairings I Oppose/Strongly Dislike/Hate

General

OC/Non-OC - Relationships between OCs and real characters never work out. It doesn't matter what game the OC is in, it just doesn't work.

Yaoi/yuri pairings that I don't list - there are so many that I don't have room to list them all. If a yaoi or yuri pairing isn't listed, assume I hate it by default. I would state on the list that I hate it, but I'm reserving that rating for specific pairings that I hate more than the norm.

Kingdom Hearts

Sora/Riku - Let me get this straight: Sora's friend (Riku) turns evil, tries to kill Sora in order to bring back Kairi, locks himself away behind a huge door, gets used by some old guy to destroy Nobodies, and then nearly dies when he gets his body back? Then, somewhere along the line, the pair fall in love with one another, despite the fact they're trying to kill each other? Right, and I've got some beachfront property in Nevada to sell you, dirt cheap.

Axel/Roxas - When Axel said good bye to his 'partner,' he didn't mean it in the Brokeback Mountain sense, people. Come on, they're friends. Guys don't typically fall in love with other guys.

Sora/Roxas - Narcissism is bad for you, kids. It's also bad for the space-time continuum, because it's physically impossible.

Kairi/Namine - See above.

Kairi/Xemnas - May the demented, cruel, twisted shell of a human being who thought this pairing up suffer for eternity as retribution for the physical agony they caused me. (And yes, I really did see a story about this pairing. I kid you not.)

Namine/Marluxia - Writing a story with this pairing is like letting Michael Jackson adopt kids: don't do it.

Persona 3

Yukari/Mitsuru - It didn't happen, it isn't happening, and it will never happen. Look, they aren't even close to lovers. In fact, they come as close as possible to hating each other for the first half of the game. Later on in the game, they do reconcile and become friends. But they do not have any sort of romantic (or even platonic) attraction to one another. Watch the cutscenes. Read the script. You'll see that they understand each other and respect each other - but they don't love each other. Canon: it's a wonderful thing.

Minato/Akihiko - This pairing is not only a yaoi pairing, but it MAKES - NO - SENSE. Honestly, look at the game. I haven't seen a single cutscene with just Minato and Akihiko in it. There's no basis for it. Oh, and it's a yaoi pairing, which instantly qualifies it for this category.

Minato/Ryoji - Basically narcissism, only with two different personalities. And did I mention it was yaoi?

Junpei/Akihiko - Nonsensical, strange, but not enough of a threat to justify 'hate.' Mostly because I avoid reading it. If I were to read it, it might easily make the hate list. And - once again - yaoi.

Minato/Ms. Toriumi - I have yet to see this one taken seriously (an artist on deviantART used it as an example of a crack pairing), but I'll say it anyway: This pairing is disgusting and I will regard you as less of a human being if you support it.

Minato/Aigis - Meh. I don't like Aigis. First she's too robotic, then she's too emotional. Not to mention she leaves Minato to die. Besides, what Persona does Aigis give you? Not Cybele, that's for sure.

Minato/Yuko or Chihiro - They're just too... ordinary. And weak. And boring. A word of advice: if you're playing P3 and Minato is going to get a girlfriend, pick Yukari, Mitsuru, or Fuuka. Not these two. See below for the general explanation.

Anyone not in SEES/Anyone in SEES - it just fails. Simple as that.

Tales of Symphonia

Lloyd/Colette - as I've stated, I dislike Colette. Thus I dislike this pairing.

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones (FE8)

Kyle/Forde - It's called 'friendly rivalry.' Not 'relationship.'

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn (FE9/10)

Ike/Soren - ...What?

Ike/Ranulf - ...Ugh. That's just wrong.
