Behind Fubuki no Kaen
As Told By Vallen
Once upon a time, two hyper teenagers (namely Xan and Vallen) were in their "hideout" in Port Aransas, Texas, playing a certain game called Super Smash Brothers Melee at 2 AM. Little did Xan know, but as soon as she had seen Marth and Roy, the intricate wheels of "yaoi thought" began turning. She couldn't wait to spill her evil thoughts, so soon those two crazy writers were collaborating on a story like none other and completely unlike any of the others they had done before. Thus, MarthRoy (Fubuki no Kaen) was born.
I realize that there were many questions concerning our story from the start, so here I am going to attempt to answer a few and shed the light on a few topics.
First, the characters… Marth and Roy are not ours (*sniff*) but we took the characters and wrote them the way we think their personalities should be. They are based (look-wise) on the actual Fire Emblem RPG game or anime series characters and we hope you like the way we write them.
Gaimen, the first "evil" character introduced, is purely fictional and original. His name, however, is a tag name, probably thought of in the early hours of the morning… If you've played Super Smash Brothers Melee, you'd know Mr. Game-and-Watch, the epitome of evil, or at least that's what Xan and I think of him. WE simply squished and shortened that name all together to transform "Game-and-Watch" to "Gaimen". Pretty cool, huh? *burns Mr. Game-and-Watch to a crisp*
Trave is like Gaimen, completely original, but I have actually no idea if she meant to make his name sound like Treize from Gundam Wing… He kinda reminds me of Treize anyways, with the self-assured power and elegance… I'll have to ask her on that one. Oh, and if you're still confused as to why he's so bad, just wait and see…
*nervous laugh* Now I realize that you guys were completely confused by the Japanese title, and I/we apologize! Our common name for the fic is MarthRoy (one word) and we kinda panicked where we had to think of a fancy title for the real thing… Just grin and bear with us… Please?
Heheh… Now onto the secrets. I saw that one of you asked which character were preferred and I'm going to address that now. It started when we were playing SSBM (again) and Xan just started having a thing for Marth and I started having a think for Roy. That's how it went, and we began the fic with Xan writing for Marth and me writing for Roy. Now don't get me wrong, I love both of them dearly, but I just have an affinity for my Roy- chan…
Now, what else is there to tell? I'm sure you, as our readers, will be happy to know that we have no intention of stopping this fic anytime soon. You must realize that this was originally in notebook form and had to be typed from that. In the MarthRoy notebook we're almost to page 100, but you've only read 28… So be happy! You have a whole adventure to read ahead!
About the yaoi thing: I realize that some people aren't okay with that sort of stuff, but we are. I'm THE rabid yaoi fangirl and I'm working on Xan at the moment… She already like yaoi, but I must make her a fangirl! I will convert as many as I can! I actually write Gundam Wing fanfiction here on FF.net, mainly yaoi, but Xan hasn't found her niche… Yet! *thinks* Now where was I…? Ah, yes, on the yaoi topic. Eventually Marth and Roy will get together, as surprising as that may seen, but I don't think I'm/We're up to writing lemons or anything too graphic for this story. Just to clear that bit up…
Well, that's it for my rant, and I hope I gave you guys some helpful information for our dear readers. Feel free to ask questions about anything, as long as it's not about spoilers! WE don't want to spoil it for you and I doubt you do either!
Oh, and just one more question: Who's your favorite, Marth of Roy?
