Genre/Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 500
Notes: Written for moonwolf13! ♥

Genre/Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 500
Notes: Written for goldenveila! ♥

( Of course, Yuri has other ideas. )

Title: Temporary Rest
Characters/Pairing: Yuri/Flynn
Genre/Rating: PG
Word Count: 500
Notes: Written for hughes_maes! ♥

My second (and final) gift fic of the season. Part one can be found on my writing journal here.

Title: The Other Side
Characters/Pairing: Yuri/Flynn
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 3,688
Notes: Written for kei_mai's Christmas-gift fic. She asked for a continuation of The Other Side, for which I already had a few ideas swirling around. :D [AU, Yuri and Flynn don't meet until Flynn is already an Imperial knight.]
Summary: Flynn wondered about the man who was always causing trouble for the knights in the Lower Quarter, but he hadn't known just how frustrating he could be.

( in the busy months that followed, he almost forgot about the Lower Quarter delinquent. almost. )

I saw this last Friday on the Playstation Home network. :)
It's a promotional billboard for Vesperia celebrating the Home's 1st anniversary and there were other major PS3 games shown too.
I think this was the most popular as it was the biggest and the cast appeared as dolls~ :3

(although a dancing Lightning beside it was a little distracting...)

I decided to post gift fic a little early, before things get too busy. Hoping that everyone has a safe and joyful holiday season. :D (Though this was written specifically "for" someone, as with any story on my writing journal it is for all to enjoy and to comment if you wish.)

Title: Comfort and Chaos
Characters/Pairing: Yuri/Flynn (pre-slash...ish)
Rating: PG
Word Count: 4,620
Notes: Written as a Christmas-gift fic for moonwolf13. The prompt/request was pretty open, so I hope it's what you wanted. :D
Summary: Until the puppy followed him back to the castle, Flynn hadn't known that there was something missing in his life.

( though it may have turned out to be more than he bargained for )

Announced yesterday at Jump Festa 2010, Namco Bandai has revealed a new set of downloadable costumes for Tales of Vesperia. It will be released on January 14th. Price are not known yet.

When granddaughter, Jada, was born with leukemia, a donor-match was located and Jada made a miraculous recovery. In honor of her grandaughter's health, Jeanna has decided to walk across the country (in the dead of winter) to raise awareness and build support for the bone marrow registry (all that's required is a cheek swab). Follow Jeanna's remarkable journey as she travels the United States by foot.

Just wondering if anyone had any good screenshots/references of Zagi. I want to draw a fanart of him as a Christmas gift to a friend of mine who is a huge fan of Zagi, so any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

To whom it may concern,

I've started a community, jrpgs_and_wrpgs, dedicated to the discussion of computer and console role-playing games, both of Japanese and Western origin. This is a really niche genre, and a lot of people who play these games prefer to play mainly these games exclusively. Due to the nature of these games, they can be quite addictive, engrossing, and the object of much obsession. Furthermore, there is no community on LiveJournal dedicated strictly to them. Almost all "RPG communities" on LiveJournal are fan fiction exercises, 'RPing,' collections of Final Fantasy icons, or general fangirl/boyism around a single franchise. There is no real discussion about these games going on, and there very well could and should be. This community is yet a seed, but if you like the idea, I encourage you to join, to encourage all your friends who would like it to join, and for all of us to contribute RPG related reading and discussion. That there is nothing like this currently on LJ is good reason that it could be successful, and it will be if we want it to be. I've been on LJ consistently since 2002, so your moderator will be here to stay, as will this community with your help. Furthermore, I can promise you that I am no control freak, will only mandate enough to keep order and productivity in the community, and will otherwise not be a tight ass, anal retentive fascist with a bunch of silly rules and a god complex. So, if you play JRPGs or WRPGs, please come on over, join, and start posting immediately about whatever RPG-related business your heart desires. I'm eager to find my peers in this.

xoxo,
Shane

Always on the lookout for compelling images, we were delighted to discover this flourishing community of artists who share a love of nature. Honoring the subject with photographs, paintings, sketches, prose, poetry, and other creative works, you'll be simultaneously riveted to your monitor and inspired to run helter skelter towards the nearest wooded dale.

I hope this is allowed; if not, let me know and I'll delete it.

I'm currently auctioning a copy of Tales of Vesperia on ebay (Xbox version, not PS3). It comes with a free Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World T-shirt.

I'm also selling a copy Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, with another of those T-shirts, if anyone's interested.

Hiya, fellow Vesperians.

I need to start some work on a costume for someone, specifically of the Schwann Oltorain nature. Hence my posting: Does anyone have official scans of his character art/in-game screen shots? I need good references. The more angles the better, especially back and side. *crosses fingers*

Thank you very much in advance! :3

Hi! First post ♥!
I'm so sorry to bother with this request, but does someone know where could I get some scans of ToV's artbook? Specifically, sketches of Yuri. I've been sarching by my own but I couldn't find anything that I could use :/

Thanks in advance ♥

Here's a picture of what I'm looking for:
