Re: Pimp time!

Well I only started to try writing fic a few months ago and so I fail epically at it most of the time. All I can manage so far is crack. I'm used to writing dialogue for a visual medium so writing the actions inbetween is far out of my comfort zone.

This is not the case when I draw, to the point that I could probably storyboard something kinky...just not convery it in words very well...

I've noticed I have a much easier time writing Terra than I do with other characters (say Kuja, Mateus, Ultimecia etc) which is probably why I can handle Kujerra without too much trouble. Mostly I only aim for characters I know well enough or can step into; Kefka I can write in about 5 seconds and he'll come out just fine even though I only played FFVI once. Kuja I've studied for years and played FFIX way too many times and yet I can only marginally handle him. (Zidane is much simpler) Then there was Prishe whose game I've never played and the only experience I had of her was the two cutscenes and battles from DFF and yet she seemed to go down okay. But I think I'll eventually be a decent Kuja if I work hard enough. Go for what you feel comfortable with first I say.
