Okay, I'm fully aware I'm not supposed to post "chapters" like this, but I don't really have any other choice, right? This "story" was just a one shot type thing, so it wasn't like I could comment on reviews in the next chapter. And I'm not going to hunt down and email reviewers just to thank them for reviewing and answer any questions they have. So if any personnel or whatever sees this, let it be known that I think that your rule is stupid. So there.
Question/Comment #1: "right first think i need to know was that Wakka loved Tidus as a 'brother' right? or wrong? is Wakka gay?" from Nyviay and Cyraxis
No, at least in this, Wakka is in love with Tidus. I'm like...a huge Wakka/Tidus fan. So up until the "Suteki Da Ne" sequence, I was seriously trying to pretend that the only reason Tidus was making a huge deal out of saving Yuna was because he was a nice guy, more or less. But then he kissed her, of course. Dammit. *laughs*
Besides, I think the whole "Tidus looking like Chappu" thing is bogus, anyway. They look slightly similar, I'll admit, but only enough so that people that were only friends with Chappu would say that they looked a lot alike. People that were really close to him (like Lulu and Wakka) might admit that their eyes were similar or something like that. But not enough for Wakka to see Tidus as his brother or Lulu to see Tidus as a replacement for Chappu or anything like that.
And, no, Wakka's not gay. It's my personal opinion that he's bisexual.
Question/Comment #2: "I'm not for the WakkaxTidus but at least it was one-sided. I'm happy about the LuluxWakka though." from LadyComplicated
Really? Wakka x Lulu always creeped me out. I mean, Lulu was seriously involved with Wakka's brother, for one thing, and then I'd always gotten the impression that they saw each other sort of like brother and sister (since they both saw Yuna as their younger sister, in a way). And so when I saw screen captures from the "perfect ending" of FFX-2 (I refuse to play the game. Refuse. I despise Yuna. She was bad enough in 10, and now she's dressed like a slut and has guns. Hooray.) that had Lulu holding a baby that had red hair (obviously Wakka's), I was sort of like "...No. You have got to be kidding me!" In this, Wakka doesn't have romantic feelings for Lulu. At least not yet. It was just one of those times where he just sort of needed someone, you know? I mean...even I'd resort to kissing one of my best (girl) friends if I saw the guy I liked making out with someone I thought of as a little sister.
Which leads me to a slightly-related question... Have you seen the perfect ending? Or at least screen captures of it? I want to know just why, over the course of two years, Wakka looks like he's 50 years old. The other Aurochs don't look too good, either. And yet Yuna, Rikku, and Lulu look basically the same. Except now Yuna and Rikku are dressed like prostitutes.
This next bit isn't answering anything. I just want to babble. If you want to pick up a conversation, you can e-mail me or instant message me or something.
Don't ask me why, but for some reason, I always end up absolutely loathing the main female characters of more or less any video game. Especially the ones in the Final Fantasy series. I can't recall a single second I liked Garnet in 9. I actually attacked her a few times on purpose. I don't know what I was trying to accomplish, but I still attacked her. She's a horrible character and is damn annoying. (Not to mention the fact that I've never, never liked the whole "princess with a mind of her own trying to get away from the pampered life" thing. I just think it's stupid and unrealistic.) Terra in 6 doesn't bother me so far, but I haven't gotten far in the game (just got Sabin. Yeah. Not far at all. I set the game aside to start on 10, I think.) And as for Yuna... Well, I liked her better than Garnet, at least. She's at least useful, what with having decent summons and such. I hated her at the beginning of the game, started to sort of like her, then went back to loathing her after the whole wedding scene in Bevelle. That was just stupid. I'm tempted to throw something at the screen whenever she talks. I'm sorry to those of you that like her, but I hate her.
Which naturally means that I don't like the canon pairings. For more than one reason, really. First would be that I hate the girls. And the second would be that I'm just not a fan of, well, het pairings. Or yuri pairings. I'm a strictly yaoi type guy. It's not that I dislike het and yuri pairings; they're fine. I just don't want to read about them.
The worst het pairing of all, in my humble opinion, would have to be Auron x Rikku. He's old enough to be her father, for crying out loud! He's twenty years older than her! Hell, Auron with anyone else in the party is creepy. The oldest character (not counting Auron) in the party is 25. And that's Kimahri. And that's just wrong.
Personally, I don't want to see current Auron with anyone. He doesn't strike me as an emotional person or someone who would be interested in having someone else anymore. He's just there to fulfill his promises to Braska and Jecht. That's all he's interested in. Now, feel free to pair him with just about anyone back during the whole Braska pilgrimage time. (I personally like to see him paired with Braska. I think it's sweet. I'll read the occasional Jecht x Auron, but I don't really like the pairing.)
...I guess I should probably shut up, now. I've talked way more than I planned to. ^^;;
