The Princess and her Bodygaurds - Dragon Quest IV.
Have I mentioned that I love this team? Because I do.
I also love the fact that Alena is the adventurous powerhouse character, despite being a petite redheaded princess.
In Santeem, princess carries YOU.
…This is ridiculously adorable. I love Alena’s overworld theme and they made a song out of it! A very catchy one, at that.
I got into it through the DS re-release but, yep! :D *waves*
Suuuup? Bet yes, the DS release was amazing. The only thing I was put-out about is how they took out the party chat function from the Japanese version when they translated. Apparently over HALF of the dialogue in the game was taken out that way! So disappointing. I’ve looked for translations of it, but all I’ve found were some sites/forums posts about trying to translate it and they date back to 2010. It’s a real shame, ‘cause I would have loved to see the characters all talking and interacting with each other and how having different ones in your party creates different reactions to situations. *ahem* But yes. Do you have a favorite chapter? You could probably guess mine pretty easily. Hahaha. Definitely Chapter 2, for me. I idolized Princess Alena back when I was a tomboy. There was a really great fanfic written about her chapter in detail, too. …Oh man, I’m already rambling. SORRY ABOUT THAT. XD;
I know I haven’t been posting much Tutu lately. Sorry about that.
But my love for Dragon Quest IV kind of got revived recently (along with all the Animal Crossing I’ve been playing).
I know this is a long shot, since the game first came out here in 1991 on the NES, but… are there any fellow DQ4 geeks around here? I’d love to fangirl about it, but this fandom seems largely Japanese. I can’t find much material from others, but good god, I went through over 200 pages of Japanese fanart on pixiv! Incredible.
I might spam some cute DQ4 OTP stuff of Kiryl/Alena tomorrow. I was wading through it on pixiv. Man… If only there was that much Fakiru.
Anyway, yeah. Just looking for people to geek out with, I guess. I feel so old.

Tuesday, June 18th 2013 Part 3: Small House Tour and Townsfolk Talkin’

Mermaid room almost complete! I got the wardrobe and clock today (I didn’t even know there was a clock). I think it’s just the dresser to go.

This is my kitchen.
…Yes, there is a sofa in my kitchen. For now.

My bathroom, which mostly consists of things I got from SpotPass of my brother and sis-in-law. (I couldn’t NOT have that little ducky pool, okay?) My hot spring will eventually move into here when I have more room.
And yes, that is a port-a-potty.

Queenie invited me over to see her house. It was actually really nice. I now have Xylophone Envy.

I have a feeling I already know how this will turn out.

DAMMIT.

WHOA there, slow down! We barely know each other! And besides, I’m in to all the EXTREME work-out stuff so I’m not sure how this is gonna—

…Oh. That kind of proposal. I’ll see what I can do.

Take back your zombie comment from yesterday and I’ll think about it.

Tuesday, June 18th 2013 Part 2: Shmoopy Epidemic and Meeting Chrissy!

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY is this becoming a thing??

…I still didn’t have the heart to say no. I want my villagers to like me. :(

And now, we venture to the dwelling of the creature called “Chrissy” in its natural habitat…

Oh my goodness. She’s PRESH. The first really adorable villager I’ve gotten!

As long as you don’t invite Edward Cullen, we’re good.

Tuesday, June 18th 2013 Part 1: Kapp’n Advice and The Weirdest Roar Ever

Next time my stomach turns at the sight of someone, I’ll be sure to identify it as love at first sight.

That or you’re doing some really weird shit in your sleep.

Not much, brolady. …But really, this is better than Shmoopy.

…I would probably frighten the dog. And the neighbors.

NO. I’M NOT READY FOR THIS. PLEASE GET A LION TO STAND IN FOR ME.

……….
What the flubbery blubbery hell?
Biff, what are you on?
