Oooh, songs again, is it? :D  I heartily second (third?) Undisclosed Desires. <3 Muse. which everyone knows already

Also, on the flipside of More than Words, Enjoy the Silence.  I could quote the whole song and it'd be appropriate, but here's a snatch of reminiscent something Zevran actually says in-game:

Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial


And of course, the chorus:

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm


What else... No One Knows by Queens of the Stone Age.  I actually associate this song with an assassin OC of mine, but he has a lot in common with Zev. ^^;

Less romantically, No One Loves Me and Neither Do I by Them Crooked Vultures.  To me, this could be Zevran in a situation where he's trying to just offer himself physically to the Warden in exchange for his life.  (And in the case of my mage, a Warden who... hmm... understands that and sort of responds in kind.)

Ugh, most of the lyrics I found online are wrong somewhere, which is sad. These are supposedly the official lyrics.

I know how to be lost in lust
Not because you should, but because you must
It burns white hot & so clouds the mind
Its lightning strike isn't always kind

So, use me up

I could go on a bit, but I'll just leave these here, shall I?  :ph34r:

I saw those lyrics and thought, is that the Depeche Mode version, or the Lacuna Coil cover?? Sadly, the Depeche Mode version... Oddly, I enjoy the Lacuna Coil cover more... Am I strange???

We don't know anything about the direction of the art yet. Might be something without Bishies. Or at least obvious ones.

It's FUNimation. Zev might be bishi, he might not. 50/50 shot either way, I think.

I don't really get it--why anime? I mean obviously because it's cheap, but otherwise how on earth is that Dragon Age-esque whatsoever?

I really hope it ends up being the magical adventures of CousCous and Alicorn. That would draw lots of out-of-fandom squeals of delight.  DA: Shoujo Edition.  Bishi Zev and shoujo bubbles every time he hits on the Warden.  You know you want to see it because it's bad and wrong.

And hooray for music! I'm seriously too tired for anything more coherent than that, but I'll have lots of stuff to look up/play after I get some sleep later. :D


I'm glad you finished it!  I love Greagoir in this story.  I can't see why you hate it/are indifferent.  I really like the dialogue too.

Wow. Very very well written.

Something along the lines of Berserk in animation could work decently.

I read it's not anime, it's animated. Which is probably a good thing.

Well, EtS has been covered like 500 times (which is one thing I love about it)... :wub:  And I'm sure the original doesn't appeal to everyone.  ;) I like the Lacuna Coil version all right, but honestly? When I first learned they covered it, I was expecting something more hardcore. XD;  I actually found it to be pretty straight to the original.

Here's a remix of the original by Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda -- the effect is Dave Gahan singing over Linkin Park instrumentals ;)
Anberlin
Failure - I like this one a lot, especially the way they've done the guitar riff.
It Dies Today - this one actually modifies the vocal melody a bit, props to them for giving that a try ;)

..and many more ;D  *shuts up*

Holy ****, this. XD

But yes, it could be done in a Western artstyle and just farmed out to Asia for actual production.  Or done domestically, even. Y'know.

Stop dashing all my hopes and dreams for the wrongest thing since Charsen using Sandal as a dummy in the cutscene editor.

If it's like Advent Children it may yet be epic.

Wow. Wasn't aware it was such a cover-friendly song.. I'll have to listen to those when I get a chance :)

Phew. Glad to hear it. I'm feeling at least a little bit better about it now that it's gotten a little feedback (and I've gotten some sleep). One anon so far is even interested in the sequel idea. We'll see. x:

It would certainly be a lot more straightforward porn-ish instead of semi-psychological with a dash of porn like this one was, haha.

The next one is another Zev one though. And one of you probably wrote the prompt. XD I'm honestly not taking guesses, it's just... it's a Zev prompt on kmeme! So, chances are pretty good that it's someone from here. XD

I revoke my previous statement and hereby pledge my full and undying support for this idea.

Ah, well that would make sense.

In that case it had better be like He-Man. Or a Disney film. Either or. Or both. With Berserk mixed in too.

Re anyone who has a shred of optimism for DA in cartoon form, I present The Dragonlance "Movie". Cower in terror, even those who never read the books.

COWER, I SAY.

I know I am. Oh god it's so bad.

Also, gave my thoughts in the dragon_age LJ community this morning. My comment there still stands.

I had been tempted to see that... Hearing your opinion of it, however, makes me want to shoot it in the face with a hammer.
