So I'm fasting…

[railenthe]

Nrrgh. Rrlrgh.

 

Today, thanks to my impending scans, I have to fast. I can have water and clear soups.

I haven’t eaten solid food in about eight hours.

I am incredibly hungry. But I can’t have solids right now. Miso soup is just about the most involved thing I’m allowed to have right now—and we’re talking PLAIN miso soup. No onions, no scallions, no nothing. …I’ll admit it, the miso soup was pretty satisfying.

But I want meat.

And pasta.

Cheese.

Delicious cereals!

 

*looks wistfully at the fridge*

Well, I’ll be allowed to eat tomorrow after the scans are done.

 

*stomach growls*

Feed me…

DAMMIT LJ APP WHY SO UNRESPONSIVE. >.>#

lol, you've certainly given this a lot of thought. I find myself curious about this form. (Also I never saw the [relative] similarities between Eiko and Kuja's circumstances. Mind is Ba-LOWN.)

It's for ff_land which is essentially a ff challenge community where you get assigned to one of six teams (or to be more appropriate job classes) and have to earn points for your team in various ways including fic, art and the like. (Currently I'm in the process of getting stamped as Thief which I'm pretty pleased with since it's one of my favorite job classes anyhow.) If you feel like giving it a shot then you can check out the guidelines here.

Oh after studying up on the ultimania I couldn't help but notice the genius of how so many of the characters echo or parallel one another. I could write an entire thesis on the subject but the strongest theme of them all is how the party and Kuja are all products of their environment and the only reason your main party isn't like Kuja is because they were given kindness at some point. Amarant is probably the closest due to being raised without love and having to fight to live but travelling with Zidane changes him and slowly makes him start to care about others. He's a clever bit of foreshadowing to show how Zidane will be able to help Kuja later on, since Amarant is a smaller scale bad guy who doesn't understand empathy. Whilst the Kuja, Vivi and Zidane parallels are the most effective, I have to admit that I'm very fond of how Eiko is the closest to Kuja in terms of personality but because she was brought up with everyone saying how she brought hope to their lives and how glad they are she exists, she's a decent person. She's also a parallel of Zidane at an earlier age due to both leaving home to find themselves, independently striking out despite being young and foolhardy and searching for companionship: in Zidane's case it's finding another Genome, in Eiko's it's finding other people. Oh wow I really could go on all day...
