Guardian Angels Update: 11-08-04
« on: November 08, 2004, 10:13:02 pm »

Like the sub-title says, I'm delusional.  You'll see why in a moment.

I've read just about every Xeno fic I have access to.  That's depressing.  I'm not really obsessed with Xenogears anymore, but I can still enjoy good art and fan fiction, so if anyone on this mortal coil still desires to fiddle with canon a bit, I have a suggestion.

Xenogears 10 themes challenge

Take these ten prompts and write ten stories - or draw ten pictures - and send them to me.  They'll be posted in a special archive and added to the regular archives just to show I care.  If you exhaust the first ten, there are two extra themes.  I don't have anything pretty to give you if you finish everything, but I will lavish you with praise.

There is no time limit, and no limit on content, though I'd prefer everything be kept tasteful.  Stories can be any length, and artists can feel free to draw in whatever format they want, though why you'd want to do, say, a comic is beyond me.  That's effort.

I'll be participating so I can procrastinate, come finals.  As for whether anyone else will or not... we'll see.  ^^  I know Xeno fandom is dead, but it's worth a try.  I wanted to have something to say besides, "I'm alive, and there are no updates."

References will be updated soon.  I just didn't feel like it, today.

...You are so on. Evil

Also, question -- for the Gears that are missing images in Guardian Angels, would you like me to scan in those images? I'd be happy to, if you don't have time and stuff. *why yes, she has been on a scanning spree lately* XD

Okay, I decided I'd give it a shot.  I did it in extremely short story format.  Here goes:

----------------------------------------
Xenogears 10 Themes Challenge
By Surtur
[/u]

1. Dreaming of things long gone.
Fei dreamed of things long gone.
"Man, I wish I had those things," Fei thought.
The end.

2. Not all is as it seems.
Elly thought she saw the Zohar eating some cat food.  She rubbed her eyes, and then realized it was actually just a cat.

3. Only one secret among many.
"Psst," Fei whispered to Citan, "don't tell anyone, but Elly doesn't wear underwear."
"That's all?" Citan replied.  "Man, you don't wanna know the stuff she tells me about you."

4. Just like old times.
Fei said something to Bart, which Bart misunderstood.  He proceeded to attack Fei for it.  "What the fuck are you doing?!" Fei screamed, but it was too late. The two of them fell into a Stalactite Cave.  "Oh, fuck, not again."  They never got out. No one ever heard from them again.

5. Unification.
Citan was having trouble defeating a wild boar.  Chu Chu leapt to his side.  "Don't work alone, Citan!  Let's chu this together!" she shouted.  
Using their combined might, they defeated the wild boar.

6. The loss of a loved one.
Suddenly, Yui got shot in the face.  
"Holy shit!" Citan exclaimed.  He started crying.
"Hey, so when you're done with that, you wanna get something to eat?" Fei asked.
"Yeah, okay."

7. The burden of duty.
"Man, this duty sure sucks.  I wish I didn't have it.  I could be playing video games right now," said someone.  He was on, uh... Shevat.

8. Learning a new way of life.
Bart walked through the Yggdrasil upside down on his hands.
"What are you doing?" asked that butler guy.
"I've decided to spend the rest of my life walking on my hands.  It's totally hard, though."
"Oh.  Well, very good, sir."

9. Break free of destiny's chains.
"You wanna go play some football?" Citan offered to Bart.
"I can't.  Destiny chained my leg to this pole."
Citan examined the chain, then karate chopped it in half.  "There you go."
"Hey, sweet, thanks."

10. In the eye of the beholder.
The Beholder started crying.
"What's wrong?" asked Elly.
"I think I've got something in my eye."
Elly rubbed the Beholder's eye for him, and Fei fell out.
"Oh, it was just Fei."

- Jealousy.
Shit, why does Bart always get those kick ass whips?  I want a whip.  Fucking Bart, Fei thought, and then tried to whip a monster with a piece of thread that came off his shirt.  It didn't work, and the monster ate him.

- A day in the life.
Elly walked into her room, to find Fei wearing her clothes and standing in front of the mirror.
"Hello, everyone," Fei said in a mock-girly voice, "I'm Elly!  I think I'm so great, because I can speak two languages!  Mmm, I think I'll put on some makeup.  I like to wear makeup all day long, because it makes me look soooo pret--", suddenly, Fei turned around and saw Elly standing behind him.  He froze, and his eyes opened wide.
Elly backed out of the room, slowly.
----------------------------------------

So... when can I expect my million dollars in the mail?

(I wouldn't mind actually giving this a shot, honestly, but I just don't think I, like, remember enough from Xenogears to pull it off.  Sorry.Tongue)

-Surtur is surprised at how much you can accomplish when you put your mind to it.  "It", being procrastinating on finishing up an essay for class.

This is definetly so original! And it even has something haiku-esque to it! XD

Surtur should do, like 50 of these!

- A day in the life.
Elly walked into her room, to find Fei wearing her clothes and standing in front of the mirror.
"Hello, everyone," Fei said in a mock-girly voice, "I'm Elly!  I think I'm so great, because I can speak two languages!  Mmm, I think I'll put on some makeup.  I like to wear makeup all day long, because it makes me look soooo pret--", suddenly, Fei turned around and saw Elly standing behind him.  He froze, and his eyes opened wide.
Elly backed out of the room, slowly.

That SO SO SO reminded me of this one:

Quote
As he passed the magazine articles, he noticed that some of the other cast members had become increasingly popular as well. There was Rico merchandise, Fei merchandise, and even a personalized line of Van Houten lingerie. Bart took a peek toward the store, but shied away when he realised Fei was inside, wearing nothing but a tiny set of lace panties and posing in the mirror.

"That was scary," Bart murmured to himself. But he cringed even more as he spotted Ramsus, the Solaris ex-commander, heading toward the same store, muttering to himself how his speedos were getting a bit too constricting for comfort, and that perhaps Fei could help him out now that he found out they had something in common.

Bart decided to get out of town after that.

YOU WRITE AWESOME!  WRITE SOME MORE! LOL~~!11!!!!!!!

Surtur, you're awesome.  ^_^

ReynardFox - sure, if you're in the mood for scanning, I'd be grateful.  ^.^  I'm not even sure our scanner works right now, anyway.

Alruhi - if there were a time limit, I wouldn't get it done either.  As it is, I'll have to wait until vacation to do my own challenge.  

I didn't even know people had replied to this.  Bah.
