Random ass spriting. And yes, I support OmegaX. Heee.
And no, I won't explain the way/how/what. Just have fun.
Yeah, say box is blank cause I have no idea what Omega would say... and why he's holding X, in an empty room, or why X needs to be held at all.
I like how X came out though!
>.> Hurrr. Self-explainatory. Yes it's Omega. But you can pretend its Zero if you want. XD
Minor sprite edits (such as hand on hip for Omega and arm crossing for X) with random dialogue that makes no sense cause there isn't any to be made =)
Omega to the rescue! Totally random. X looks like he's just chillin'. I might edit this/remake it later. Animated .gifs are fun XD
And... that's it. Just me being random.
I really do dislike the fact I'm prone to being a bitch, but at the same time, I kinda like it, cause its pretty amusing to both me and those who listen. And you, my traffic and fans, get to listen to me bitch. About what? People and fanfics. I started ranting last night to Elise and now its carried over. Let the bitchfest/whinefest begin.
Top 5 Things That Tick Off Irihi No Matter How Hard You Try To Make Sure It Won't:
1. Overpowered/Illogical/'Recolored'/Fucking Retarded Ass OCs - No, seriously, I don't mind a few OCs now and then in a fanwork. I can't include all OCs when I myself use one (Delia, from Song of Memory: Redux). But here's the thing that pisses me off--when people's OCs make no goddamn sense, have no place in the fandom, and are somehow 'fatefully' better or on par with the canonical characters.
NO. Just NO. You are not some uber fucking special gift from God to the universe of your (unfortunate) chosen fandom. There's a reason the canonical heroes are powerful and seperate from the non-hero characters of the game/anime/book/whathaveyou, because the story is about them. A fanwork is a show of your support of what happens in the game, even if you're tweaking it to suit your tastes (such as the yaoi fandom of MMX/MMZ.). Tweaking what's there is fine. Having an OC or two that help the plot but are not the spotlight and the world revolves around them is dandy. But an OC that saves the fucking world where the heroes failed--and, might I add, said OC has some unwordly power NOT EVEN RELATED TO THE FANDOM UNIVERSE--is fail OC and pisses me off cause why the fuck am I supposed to be interested and reading a "fic" that revolves around some person who isn't part of the game/anime/whathaveyou I'm looking at? If I wanted random ass people not related to my fandom, I'd go read a goddamn original novel.
I'm not impeding on your creativity. You're impeding on the fandom. GTFO. If you want to be creative in ways that involve original characters that are 'better' than canonical ones, go write something original. Fanfiction is meant to stretch your creativity when set in an already established world. Tweaks are good. Self-inserting your ass into it is not.
OH. AND ALSO. If you fucking must have an OC... FFS, make it a real, original character. Not a knock off of another character like Zero or X, or some freaky, creepy eye-raping furry weird ass thing that has no reason or logic to be in the particular fandom, but actually looks like it belongs to AN UNRELATED FANDOM. Some fandoms are NOT MEANT TO CROSS. I know boundaries are meant to be broken. STATE LINES ARE NOT.
I'd like to add a special note: If you do have such an OC who's role is much like the heroes of the fandom, but there is STRONG LOGIC, SOLID IDEAS and BELIEVABLE reasons your OC exists, I may not be including you in this.
If you are a copy of canonical character, you automatically fail and make people rage. Quit making people rage, goddammit.
2. Overly Retarded Purple Prose/Flowery Language
Guess what? You're not a poet, and definately not Shakespere. Go ahead and write what's deemed professional... but I (and others) can't take you seriously when you're talking like a moron who's trying way too fucking hard. Yes, use descriptive words. Yes, assist us in imagining the image you want to get across. Lay off the attempt to sound poetic. No one gives that much of a fuck after the fourth line of just how much passion is between two people. We get it. Move the fuck on. It's hard to explain what exactly I'm bitching about, but its mostly that fake, stupid, obviously-trying-to-hard-to-impress word usage that makes you want to barf. I have a very specific example in mind, but I don't wanna hear the emofest if I actually showed it/linked it. Trust me when I say everyone has seen it and went "wtf are you TRYING to say?".
3. Too Much Talking For No Goddamn Reason
Sometimes a lengthy conversation needs to happen. But who the hell sits there, minutes on end, facing each other and just talk? Very few. Throw in something else between the endless quotes.
Better yet, show, don't tell. Sometimes no one needs to speak to get a point across. A pet peeve I touched on in the LJ I never really ranted properly about... people don't talk that much during sex. They got other things to waste their breath on. We readers also don't give a fuck for full length conversations during sex scenes. Teach the characters to shut up. A few words here and there is fine. But full on speeches? Be quiet goddammit.
4. People That Support Retarded OCs (See No.1 For The Meaning of 'Retarded OCs')
Stop. Fucking stop. DO NOT FEED THE TROLL. Stop ruining the fandom aarrgghhhh whhhyyyyy?
5. People Who Are Dicks In General
I'm probably being hypocritical with this one. But seriously. Do you have to be such a goddamn wanker? At least I do it in a blog where its my territory. I don't care if the Internet lets you be anon and all that, don't be an asshole for no goddamn reason. And get the fuck off my page if that's all you're gonne do.
Done. I feel better. *sips coffee*
