This is a belated introduction, I guess, but I saw an opportunity to be thread #42 and couldn't resist.
Hi, I'm Elendraug, and I've been a Xenosaga Freaks since I played the series in winter 2006/spring 2007. I am an Elsa Crew and Godwins Appreciator, and I would like Jr. and Gaignun to be happily married to each other. I consider suffering through playing through Level 5 of HaKox to be proof that I love Jr. enough to get his final weapon for him. Pied Piper is incredible and I enjoy it a lot more now that I have a better understanding of the sociopolitical themes it was exploring. Juli & MOMO & Ziggy deserve more love and I am eternally heartbroken about Sakura Mizrahi. Every few years I get sad about Cherenkov and doodle him on the Beach of Nothingness. Allen was my first favorite character, because he immediately endeared himself to me by way of advocating for Space OSHA safety guidelines during that training dive. ETA: Oh, and I invented Citrine/Pellegri as A Thing because I like them, and I keep meaning to revisit them and I've got yet another WIP waiting to go, RIP. Helmer and Ziggy are Best Dads. Miyuki is Best Girl. Jin's bookstore would be right at home on the Foundation if everyone on Second Miltia wouldn't miss him too much if he moved it.
I played Xenogears in 2005 (maybe 2006? I think 2005), although I never finished it because Dominia kicked my ass and I couldn't backtrack enough to level up. I got through enough of the game to know that I love Bart Fatima dearly, and Bart/Fei is my favorite ship aside from the Yggdrasil itself.
I don't really have time to play JRPGs these days but I've heard Xenoblade is good. Maybe eventually!
Uhhhh, what else. I write and draw, although I've put more skill points into the writing thus far. Jintoki's programming work on the XenoComi fan translation inspired me to goof around with Python and Ren'Py, and I'm hoping I can help adapt the routes for Shion and Allen. I'm having some success teaching myself Japanese after years of intending to learn.
It's great to be back in this fandom and to see a lot of familiar names on this forum; I'm glad to be here! Thanks for having me.
