magibrain: A dignified and stately way of shooting you in the face while slicing you open. (Final Fantasy VIII)

I'm still amazed that apparently NORG was the one aspect of worldbuilding that had... absolutely no impact on anything I wrote, ever. I mean, it's not exactly a minor boss battle! And it completely changes the way you understand B-Garden!

And man, yes! If there was an extra disc of just going to classes at Garden and having Seifer be Seifer and Squall be longsuffering before the SeeD exam, I would play the heck out of that disc.

...I remember inventing entirely new nations with complex political backstories in, like, Grandidi and the Kashkabald Desert and stuff. And that whole five-novel epic series I planned out and never wrote more than 1.5 novels of? (Oh, tiny me. Though let's be honest, I plot the same sort of things out now.) Clearly we should all get together on some kind of holiday and re-play the game. And be all "Jesus, these characters are young." And then we can all feel old.
