Miscellany

I like randomness. It's a good way to determine that people actually read the site. I say "I don't know who these people are," and I get email telling me. Still can't quite get used to that.

Sana I've wanted to make a skin out of this image for the longest time, because it's just about as perfectly Kodocha as anything that's not animated could possibly be. I finally braved the color scheme, and while it could be better, it's not as bad as I'd feared it might turn out.
Death and Binky I never thought I'd be able to make any Discworld-related skins, and then I got the The Last Hero from the library and scanned this image. I still didn't think I'd be able to make any Discworld-related skins, but I guess I was wrong. Yay!
Riku I may well be the only Square fangirl in the world who hasn't beaten Kingdom Hearts. I've played a little of it... just not, y'know, enough that I know anything about the characters or story, to speak of. I'm also not a Riku fangirl. Yes, I know, but I'm still pretty sure I'm a straight woman. I will say that Nomura's style seems to work best in this, compared to the FF games. Maybe because he gets to pick his own world? I don't know. So the title comes from Sephiroth's theme and I don't know if it has anything to do with Riku or not - I just picked it because of the thing he's leaning on.
Kurama First of all, I would like to make it very clear that the ludicrous title is NOT MY FAULT. It is the fault of whoever wrote and titled the YYH music; Kurama's image songs all have titles like "A Goodbye Is the Beginning of Tomorrow" or "Embracing the Ice Knife" (yeah, those'll fit) or... well, this. It's so not my fault!

Oy. Anyway. Here's the official YYH bishounen, looking like somebody took a comb to him before they started up the wind machine. Which is just my snarky little way of saying that even I will admit he's looking nice here. Normally I'm not a huge fan of his, but I like him well enough. And the skin's pretty much okay, too. Hooray!

Venus?  Maybe? I have no clue who this woman is. She came from artwork for Venus & Braves, a new/upcoming(?) game with, well, cool artwork. I know nothing else about it and don't particularly care enough to check. I always like playing around with randomly-selected artwork - if I know nothing at all about the series, I don't get all bogged down in "That's not a very Rikku-like font." The title was swiped from a Mazzy Star song because it was random and I liked it.
