Description (title from one of my favorite Linkin Park songs, hah. Couldn't think of anything else.)

Will scrap later...it's a pencil sketch but I felt like coloring, if only flat colors...I wanted Leon to have a red shirt, I dunno. Red seems like his color, (besides black and white lol) like blue is Cloud's. *shrug*

I was tempted to call this "summer heat", but that would have been misleading. XD Reference to the fact that whenever it's hot out, all I feel like doing is lying around playing video games or sleeping...and when I'm tired or feeling lazy I tend to draw people sleeping.

Colored this listening to a bunch of (good but) depressing songs, and so when I wanted to put lyrics to it I couldn't find anything happy enough, so I went with nothing... XD

Mm, diffuse glow filter.

Harhar... someone's been reading too much of Hanae's fanfics ... 8D

I noticed she's a Cloud fangirrrllll... and puts Cloud seme (Yes, seme, the way you thinking) in like 70% of the fics O: O: O:

Yes, she does, and she converted me. SHAMELESSLY. Honestly, though, even if it seems OOC it's not so much if you think about it. I've discussed it with her over AIM and she makes some very convincing arguments. Unfortunately it's really difficult to say anything for sure because they were in what, three scenes together in KH II? XD However, Cloud did get the last word in during their little snarky dialogue...

If you're up for discussing this further I'm game. But note me?

Hahaha~ I'm not a great point putter-upper but I might note you when I'm feeling right xDD

True, I read one of her points about how Cloud had been through the "Kentucky fried slaughterhouse"(<--ROFLAWL for both the fic/comments) and AGH! You're talking about dialogue you silly little girl. There's a lot more going on behind closed doors than what's going up on the screen ;D *Dismissal, not dominance lolol... is that the right word ?*

Sighh... KH twisted their personalities too much. Actually, wait. Leon/Squall was younger than Cloud when the canon games came out... Lol.. I don't know what that has to do with their personalities, but I had to bring it up ^^

proximity-nine In reply to fullcreamilk [2007-09-15 20:41:58 +0000 UTC]

Hmm...I don't think KH twisted their personalities so much as, they're the same people, but they've grown up with different experiences, so it stands to reason they'd be somewhat different.

Apparently in an interview the creators said they made Cloud younger because he was emotionally immature. Which he is. XD

Also, if you think about it, Squall _was_ still a teenager in VIII, so...in KH he's older and therefore more mature. But he's also a happier person in general, probably because there's no supernatural being eating his memories. >>

But anyway, when it comes to dominance in this pairing...I actually don't have a preference. I'll joke around, but if I'm being serious, I think of them as equals, because the idea of a dominant-submissive relationship is creepy to me. They're not okay in real life, so why should they be in fandom? Therefore to me, the issue of seme/uke comes into play only when concerning sex, and since I don't do sex, it's a moot point.

I just don't like Cloud being portrayed as the stereotypical weak, whiny submissive one, because he's not. He may be passive, but he can also be badass.

Sorry that was so long. Man. And late. XD

Damn right Cloud is younger - he's about 18 mentally right about now.

"Since I don't do sex"

I don't think that Leon always dominates over Cloud simply because I don't see him as a domantrix @@ I share your opinion of Cloud!Badass !

Actually, I think i said before but i don't like fanfics which makes either one the weak or overly subservient - they're both grown men for God's sakes, only shota pairings like Akuroku (Axel is like how old compared to 14?) and SoRiku (Well... shota in general) are allowed to do that >:C

Hah, well, I used washed-out colors so they were already paler than usual, then I was all "DIFFUSE GLOW FILTER 8D" (god, I love that thing) So...yeah. XD

Thanks <3
