Retreating from Reality

I obviously deserve to be shot for neglecting all those who commented on my previous video (with a bazooka or flamethrower for galatea23 's case, take your pick and I won't run away!).

But in any case, yes, astrangerenters , I'm probably the most predictable creature you've ever seen XD Which is why part II of the Hercules/Final Fantasy XII series appeared. I do share a love-hate relationship with this video, because, at certain segments, it was a breeze, other times, I feel like breaking fingers, and pulling Ashe out of the screen, just so I can throttle her. Though, somehow, I do pity little Larsa at 1.10, who not only had to put up with Ivalice politics, but had to listen to Ashe's love life problem as well. Poor little guy! 

Well, Ashe definitely have my full attention when she rants on about her love life! God knows what she'll do (or what she can do) if I ignore her! XD

Song: 'I Won't Say (I'm In Love)' from Hercules
Rating: G
Summary: After Basch's journey from Zero to Hero, the spotlight then turns to Ashe, who finds herself, well, romantically attracted to Basch, but stubbornly denies her heart. And how does she deny these growing amorous feelings? By singing, of course!! XD

Never am I ever writing for any other challenge with deadlines X3 I'm just not capable in meeting the deadlines, and I will feel extremely bad for dropping the claims, or posting up late because time and brains doesn't permit me otherwise. That's it! After the next bout of springkink, I swearing off them for good. And to think I've already given up hope after my first ridiculously-terrible attempt at online challenges. This is the first time I'm writing sexual situations in fics, and I dare not go below the waist... ok fine, I almost put a permanent pause below the neck, but still, I figure this would be good practice before writing similar situations for my multi-chapter fics. As for how I feel at the moment, the same as I told gwynhafra, I felt as though an elephant just sat on my brain and farted.

And I would like to apologize to galatea23and mariagonerbeforehand. I'll be out of town for the next three days, and would only return on Sunday (which I'll most likely be sleeping the day off as well), so... I'll only be able to reply your posts later. I'm really sorry for delaying again m(_ _)m

Never would I ever dream of creating a fanvid for Vayne and his party of minions. But I was searching for some songs for Basch, Ashe and Vaan to stumble upon this song and the image of Vayne singing it is just hilarious. It wasn't hard at all to create this video, because Vayne was the perfect villain and he mouth his words so perfectly. But this video was a pain to create cause there were so many glitches in the original one. The scene came together easily, it is to fix the errors that were hard.

Fandom: Final Fantasy XII
Character(s): Vayne, Bergan, Ghis, and Cast
Song: "Be Prepared" from The Lion King

Summary: Vayne is the perfect villain (he knows it XD), and he put his dark deeds into a song, accompanied with his band of minions chorusing and praising his majestic name X3

 
Well, enough said and I hope you'll enjoy this video. Comments and criticisms are highly appreciated ^_^

This is one of my older videos (quite obvious from the poor quality cutscenes), and I think it is about time that I upload at least one of my Basch x Ashe video tribute to my journal. Seem to me, its been a while since I made a Basch/Ashe video, and I still think this fandom, generally lacks of it. Shall make another one soon, with them singing a duet. Any suggestions? X3

Some time ago, the sweet and patient artemischan wrote a fic-bit with the prompt "Precious" for me (and answered to my many outrageous request), thank you very much, dear. I still melt over it whenever I read it again XD

"Precious" by artemischan:

"When he had promised her his sword, he had meant it as a knight to his liege; but somehow, somewhere, over their journeys to defeat Vayne and regain Dalmasca's independence, that promise had come to mean something more, to both of them, turning them from knight and princess to companions, to something even more...precious than that."

Title: Precious
Fandom: Final Fantasy XII
Character/Pairing: Basch/Ashe
Song: "Precious" by Yuna Ito
Rating: G
Summary: Precious is the name of this song, and I believe that Ashe only notice how precious Basch is to her after he left for Archadia. As for Basch, I'm more than willing to bet that his feelings for her are more than loyalty.


Well, enough said, and I do hope that you'll enjoy this video. As usual, comments and criticism are highly appreciated ^_^

EDIT: [This] leads to [this] accompanied with [this] along with [this] and finally brought upon THIS VIDEO.

Completely inspired by two marvelously talented and creative ladies. It was no hidden secret that mariagoner was the obvious main culprit of this new crossover insanity, while Kidzukai was the fellow accomplice who broaden its possibilities. And I am just a poor soul caught within the torrential whirlwind of Baschman madness.

Therefore, send your worship, love and praises to them. Not me. XD

Somehow, I believe that this trailer could be better but with my mum vulturing around and ready to pick a bone with me, there wasn't much that I could do but speed up and finish it before she talks my ears off. I'm quite satisfied with the final results, considering that I did try to limit myself to using specific scenes.

And can you blame a girl for choosing Ashe as the damsel in distress again? As the story goes, Batman Baschman saves the day but have to give up his love for Rachel Ashe for the peace of Gotham City Dalmasca. Playing the tragic hero again, ain't he?

Also, Vayne is the perfect villain. I mean it! He was born for malicious roles and he fits well into them. After creating two trailers featuring him as the big bad wolf, I'm proud to say that he's the easiest character to work with in regards for lip-synching.

Now we have an idea, a movie poster, a script and a trailer. What else do we need? XD 

EDIT: Cheers, now we've got the tickets for the premier as well. Kiddies not allowed, and adults only XD

Somehow... you would begin to comprehend that you've attained another level of fandom insanity when you start to hallucinate and combine two completely unrelated fandom. Or maybe, the blame lies on the depravation of proper fangirlism for the past few weeks, and the sad expectation of the same treatment for the coming months.

Nevertheless, it was great fun to work on this piece for the sake of amusement and to fulfil my cravings for fandom. And seriously, by Jove, I've never expected Star Wars and Final Fantasy to accommodate each other so perfectly well - though I was highly aware of the similarities here and there.
