00588 | One continous storyline, both authors - this is a massive arc of sort of self-contained fics. As always, Tenshi and llamajoy write thoughful, poetic stories. A certain amount of action contrasts with backstage angst. Worth reading the 40+ (!) stories in this. And their stand-alones. And their humorfics. Hell, just read everything on their site. You'll be glad you did. |

01694 | This series of stories inspired me to buy a PlayStation and get into gaming, because I wanted to find out what the *real* characters were like. We learn in the game that Seifer and Squall were close friends in their forgotten childhood, and that subconsciously that close friendship is manifesting itself in their current adversarial relationship.
In the Life Series, Sukunami takes their lifelong friendship and turns it into a believable love relationship. She keeps Seifer and Squall beautifully in-character ... even with the added MPREG element! Isan, their son, is a wonderful OC character that I LOVED getting to know.
Go. Enjoy. I could not put these stories down. Sukunami is an excellent writer and her stories are always a good bet. Maybe you will be inspired to dust off that old Playstation and reintroduce yourself to Final Fantasy VIII!.

01945 | I just found this story arc again! How could I have forgotten it????
Wow, great story-telling. Overall the characterization is exceptionally well done, however Seifer*s personality is AMAZINGLY well-written.
The story takes place 4 years after the end of the game. In the aftermath of the Sorceress*s War, Seifer is understandably unpopular with the masses. There is a warrant out for his arrest, but since most people only knew him as the Sorceress*s Knight and not by his real name, he has been able to quietly rebuild his life working as an EMT in Galbadia.
Squall ... the savior of the world ... is not fairing as well. As the Commander of Balamb Garden and son to the President of Esthar (as well as getting all the credit for saving the planet from the sorceress), Squall seems to have everything he could ever want. But the responsibility and high expectations are too much for him to handle. He is spinning farther and farther out of control and deeper and deeper into depression. He ends up deliberately crashing his car in a drunken haze. EMTs are the first ones to the scene of the accident. Thus our two antagonists are reunited ... and our story begins.
There are three main stories in the arc: Hero, Happily Ever After and Once A Knight. In these stories, both characters are struggling with the after-effects from the Sorceress*s War. In a very real way, these once-enemies are the only ones who can truly understand what the other is going through, and they end up saving each other.
This is a story about angst, life-long friendship and committment.
I highly recommend it. |
