I've been writing this weekend. That makes me quite happy :D Unfortunately, thinking about my exams makes me not happy >< Fortunately, I'm thinking more about writing. Though it seems that "tragedy" is the only genre I'm able to write now. And I'm using a character that I don't like. Maybe that's why I can write tragedy so easily.
Though, somehow I feel sorry for Lyon. In some way he is interesting, but this way is not my way (if you understand what I mean). He always irked me when I was playing FE8. At the beginning I didn't feel sorry for killing him, to be honest. Now I pity him. Probably because I'm developing a headcanon now.... I don't know. He's a tragic character, therefore the genre is fitting.

I also started a Seth/Eirika tragedy one, but I don't know if I finish that. But I hope that I'm not losing this inspiration. I want to write another ghost story.

I'm so glad to hear someone else say that. The first few times I played the game I just wanted to smack him! I do feel badly for him now but that didn't happen until I actually wrote about him. Mostly he's just... not what I want in story. He's far too weak. When I play games like Fire Emblem or other fantasy stories I'm looking for heroes, for people I can admire, who have qualities I can aspire to. I mean you can see the difference with Ephraim and Eirika; they, too, lose their father and inherit their kingdom under awful circumstances, but they're able to take on the mantle of responsibility in a way Lyon is simply incapable of. Lyon, in spite of his good intentions, is quite simply not Emperor material.

/rant ;)

Good luck with your writing and your exams!

Well, I do like weak characters every now and then, but Lyon had nothing to make himself interesting. His backstory was ladida and I nearly read it over. I still don't like him but I have slightly more interest in him. Besides, it's really fun to write this oneshot :D [What do you mean? I didn't just squee at Seth/Eirika! No, no, sir.]

Oh. So... they're not good?

But it's not good yet D: Besides, it's just, like, one and a half pages yet and it hasn't even really started yet. But after the Lyon-oneshot I will continue with that. Patience, my friend.
