so uh
i don't know how to say this, but: in my spare time, i am committing genocide.

only 12,195 zombies to go!
and yes, this deserved its own entry. ZOMBIE EXTERMINATION: SERIOUS BUSINESS.

and because i'm in an awfully fannish mood tonight, a meme:
Leave me a pairing [or two] and I'll tell you...
1. Two things that are awesome about it
2. Two things that are not so awesome about it
3. Two ways I'd love to write it

Edge/Rydia.

1. Because one of them is a ninja and the other controls mythical beasts. THERE IS NO NEED FOR ANOTHER REASON but also, they are a good fit personality-wise, Edge really needs someone who isn't afraid to take him down a few pegs (but not in a nasty way) and i think Rydia needs someone who will not bat an eye at the really weird way she grew up (and can take her digs without flinching, either).
2. there is very little fanwork out there, although i've noticed that in request/exchange memes Edge/Rydia is a really common request, which makes one wonder why so few people actually write/draw anything.
this is decidedly FF: The After specific, but their relationship apparently does not change at all in 17 years. not cool, Squeenix. it makes Rydia look either exceptionally clueless (if she still isn't 'aware' of Edge's feelings) or exceptionally callous (if she is, and just doesn't care), while Edge comes off as desperate, and man, there are no desperate ninjas in the history of forever.
3. this may be me looking too hard at a few lines, but in the DS remake it seems like Edge is freaked out, even afraid, of the Eidolons, which is kind of hilarious. an "Edge becomes acquainted with Rydia's monster family" fic is just begging to be written.
i also like the idea of Rydia being clueless regarding social romantic mores and just being wildly inappropriate whenever Edge tries to do something to get her attention. Or better yet, trying something outrageous to get his attention.
