Well, this is annoying. I’ve been so preoccupied with other things that I forgot to post on my own blog! It’s been over a month now since I last wrote something here, so I figure I should change that right now.
Right… First things first, eh?
I’ll be going to both the Midland’s MCM Expo during the weekend of February 21st and 22nd and the London MCM Expo during the weekend of May 23rd and 24th, although I’ll already been in London on the 22nd to meet with some fellow cosplayers and just hang out before the weekend really starts. The Convention itself should prove to be extremely fun, what with plenty of anime, manga, videogames and whatnot. I’ll probably stock up on a few months worth of Pocky and more plushies than I can carry, knowing me. Anyway, I’ll be cosplaying as Bridget from Guilty Gear and Yuki Cross of Vampire Knight during the convention, so keep an eye out for me. I still don’t know what I’ll be wearing during the Saturday night – I might just stick with Yuki Cross’s costume. If anyone has alternative ideas, leave me comments!
What else? Hmm… Ah! For those wondering, I’m picking up Far Cry 2 sometime this week. I’m trying to ween myself off of Resistance 2, because I’m neglecting all my other PS3 games for the Co-Op Mode – which isn’t really acceptable, is it? So I’ll be busy playing Far Cry 2, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Folklore until the end of February. I’ll be playing COD4 simply because I hear Kizzy 2 is remarkably similar in terms of gameplay, so any warming up that I can partake in while I wait for that game is more than worth it. I’m still playing Dissidia on my PSP and Final Fantasy Tactics A2 on my DS, although I aim to pick up some new games for the two – probably Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and Killzone Liberation… I think that covers my gaming habits for the next few months, don’t you?
In terms of writings, I’m working on a Golden Sun fanfiction now as well as trying to get everything finalised for my Devil May Cry one, as well. If you’re unaware, my Devil May Cry fanfiction basically replaces DMC2 with a new story that serves to deepen our understanding of both Sparda and the battle he fought to protect the Human World. There are also plenty of new mechanics and elements I’ll be bringing in, from Dante’s fear of mortality to Angel Knight’s – the once-sacred counterpart to the Devil Knights that once sought to enslave our world. As for the Golden Sun fanfiction, I have an idea regarding what could happen: I believe a story that reverses the roles of everyone, taking place long after the events of the duology, centering around the plight of two men with great power who seek to destroy the Four Lighthouses. Why? Noone knows. But who will stop them? Well that’s up to the brand new protagonists that I’ve created from the ground up. Should be fun, no?
I think this basically covers everything I wanted to say… I’ll probably remember something later and add it, but this is it overall. I’m listening to a lot of Ayreon now, more than I used to, and even got hold of Jeff Buckley’s album “Grace”, which is surprisingly awesome. Oh, and I picked up that new Kaiser Chief’s album – also awesome. Well anyway, thanks for reading and come back soon!
