I've messed up Soylent Icons above all else so I'm thinking that I'm going to create a NEW icon community. Just need to think of a name for it. We'll see. Also somehow I was blessed with MORE inspiration and I actually kicked out a Relm (ff6) icon as well!

Open the box, they said.. it'd be fun, they said.

Last night I was pretty much glued to my VITA, playing FFIV complete collection. Cecil becomes a Paladin! Check! He gains mass ammounts of levels before heading to Baron! OKAY~! He kicks the ass of Baignan and Cagnazzo! HURRAH!

NOW WE HAVE AN AIRSHIP.

Sure we're supposed to go to Troia but~

ALL THE THINGS, ALL OF THEM.

We visit shiny Agart full of promise, we spend ass amounts of time gaining levels so that we can afford all the nifty new gear that Mythril offers. And then we go into Eblan to poke around, because look EDGE'S MYSTERIOUS DESERTED CASTLE. We don't know the guy yet so why don't we loot it.

Loot loot loot!

Let's open this box!

MONSTER!

MONSTER. KICKS. MY. ASS

Rocks fall; everybody dies.

RESTART. Aw damn, I hadn't saved until just before Baignan.

And then I realized that this happened MY VERY FIRST PLAYTHROUGH way back when I was a teenager and didn't know any better.

Obviously I STILL DON'T! It was lowering to think that TWENTY YEARS-- and STILL COMMITTED THE SAME EPIC FAIL.

Now I have something new to add to my list of things to go back and tell my younger self if ever I'm given a time machine...

DO NOT OPEN THAT. DAMN. BOX
