Okay… it’s been proven you all know your movie quotes. But how well do you remember your video game quotes? :3 I’ll be listing a number of quotes from various video games. Try your best to guess the title of the game it came from. Bonus points if you can identify the speaker(s). ^__~ Have fun! :D

The Rules:
→ Choose between 10 to 15 of your favourite video games.
→ Go to Wikipedia, IMDb, or Google to find various quotes for these games.
→ Post your list of quotes, and try to have others guess (and try to guess before looking at the other people’s guesses)
→ When a game is correctly guessed, strike it out and put up the name of the person that guessed it.
→ No Googling the answers!

( Quotes below the cut )

If people are really having difficulties with some of the quotes, after a while, I'll put up a secondary quote.

I've been feeling rather "burned out" on all stuff Transformers, lately. Hard to get my characters moving RP-wise, and the urge to draw 'em just isn't there, either.

Instead, interests have shifted back towards some of my old, favourite RPGs. ^__^ (picked up Final Fantasy IV DS, and enjoying that! :D) I've been working on inking/completing some OLD artwork of mine, and I've also drawn a few new pieces as well. :) As soon as I can get my scanner fixed (the glass is disengaging from the top/falling down -- I need to secure it) I'll scan them and put 'em up here and on DevArt. :D As straya mentioned earlier... it's nice to do something a little more rounded, and organic, and not totally bogged down with the sometimes-rather-insane levels of details that seem popular in TF art, nowadays.

And... ( geek/nerd meme! )

Oh... and in other news.... SNOW! Here, in March. Okay, early March, yes, but... still. Pacific West Coast. March. SNOW. (please don't snow again during Sakura Con like last year. That was crazy!)

1. Pick 16 of your favourite movies.
2. Pick a quote from each one.
3. As people guess the quote, put the title and their name by it.
(Bonus points for knowing which characters!)
Cheating with Google will certainly result in spankings or lack thereof, whichever is worse for the offender.

Heh... It was a little hard compiling this. First, selecting the movies to use. So many great movies out there, that I like... It was hard to narrow it down to 16 (I'm sure I could have pumped up the number to 20). Then, it was choosing just ONE quote from each movie (some movies have so many awesome quotes!). I tried to balance things out a little -- funny quotes along with more dramatic quotes. Some will be easy to identify, others will prove a challenge (perhaps).

1) A) "A bolt of lightning. Unfortunately, you never know when or where it's ever gonna strike."
B) "We do now."
((Doc Brown and Marty, Back to the Future:part 1, correctly guessed by tactile_contact))

2) "It's the world of human fantasy. Every part, every creature of it, is a piece of the dreams and hopes of mankind. Therefore, it has no boundaries."

3) "They passed down all the roads long ago, and the Red Bull ran close behind them and covered their footsteps."
((The Butterfly, The Last Unicorn, correctly guessed by ramblingscholar))

4) "Gamma waves in this sector of space create marginal navigation probabilities. However... ahem... yes, I believe I can."
((Perceptor, Transformers: the Movie, correctly guessed by ramblingscholar))

5) A) "What if it goes out and melts down a busload of nuns? How would you like to write the headline on that one!?"
B) "...Nun soup?"
((Short Circuit, correctly guessed by tactile_contact))

6) "Courage of the heart is very rare. The Stone has a power when it's there."
((Nicodemus, Secret of NIMH, correctly guessed by tactile_contact))

7) A) "I am your father's brother's nephew's cousin's former room-mate."
B) "What's that make us?"
A) "Absolutely nothing."
((Dark Helmet and Lonestar, Spaceballs, correctly guessed by ramblingscholar))

8) "Everyone remember where we parked...!"
((Captain Kirk, Star Trek IV:the Voyage Home, correctly guessed by tactile_contact))

9) A) "Well, what are you afraid of? A fate worse than death?"
B) "No, just death. Isn't that enough?"

10) A) "I've set my laser from stun to kill."
B) "Ah, great, great. Yeah, and if anyone attacks us, we can blink 'em to death."
((Buzz Lightyear and Woody, Toy Story, correctly guessed by ramblingscholar))

11) "Do you like pain? Try wearing a corset."
((Elizabeth Swann, Pirates of the Carribean: Curse of the Black Pearl, correctly guessed by ramblingscholar))

12) A) "I can't. Not again. I'm not... strong enough."
B) "If we work together, you won't have to be."
((Mr. Incredible [Bob] + Elastigirl [Helen], The Incredibles, correctly guessed by swords_of_mars))

13) "It means that your future hasn't been written yet. No one's has. Your future is whatever you make it. So make it a good one."

14) "Then let us be rid of it, once and for all! Come on, .... . I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you!"
((Sam Gamgee, Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, correctly guessed by ramblingscholar))

15) A) "I foresee two possibilities. One - coming face-to-face with herself thirty years older could put her into shock and she could simply pass out. Or two - the encounter could create a time paradox, the results of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space-time continuum and destroy the entire universe. Granted, that's the worse case scenario. The destruction might, in fact, be very localised, limited to merely our own galaxy."
B) "Well that's a relief..."
((Doc Brown and Marty, Back to the Future:part 2, correctly guessed by tactile_contact))

16) "... please, I'm only an elected an official here. I can't make decisions by myself!"
((Mayor, Nightmare Before Christmas, correctly guessed by ramblingscholar))

( questions and answers under the cut )

Well, two memes... ^^; Posted a Christmas-themed writing meme up at LJ community 'transficsation'

First, the quiz... snagged from oreobot ... I SWEAR, I wasn't aiming for this response. ^.^;;

( result below cut )

And a meme! Snagged from dessa_gepichu

1. Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
2. Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
3. Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
4. Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly (no googling lyrics, dangit!)

... even the embarrassing songs? ^^;; Hoo boy. *^.^*;; Skipping over instrumentals, of course. I had to skip over a bunch of Japanese (and various other languages) songs, too... since I couldn't transcribe the lyrics. @_x; I might have made a couple errors, so please forgive me on those. *bows* On certain songs, skipped to the 2nd lyric (as the first one would give it away)

( list below the cut! )

Snagged from raisedbymoogles

Cut and paste the card order, turn on your MP3 player or other music player, and set it on random. No skipping. Each song that comes up is, effectively, a 'card'. Write them down in order.


( my results behind the cut )

Since I commented in Domon's journal, requesting a drabble... here I go. x.x

The first fifteen people to comment on this post get to request a drabble (real drabble: 100 words exactly) from you. In return, they have to post this in their journal. Post all fandoms you're willing to write for.

Okay. Here's hoping I can whip out little drabbles for you guys. ^_^; It's been AGES since I've really written -- and posted -- anything. Yes, I know I've applied for the 'fanchara100' challenge, but that's nearly ground to a halt. @_x; Maybe this'll help get the creative juices flowing? (I must be crazy, hence my 'silly' icon ^^;)

Well, anyway... Fandoms I'm willing to tackle are Transformers: G1 and possibly Galaxy Force... Fushigi Yuugi, Final Fantasys 6 and 7, Xenogears, Crono Trigger and Chrono Cross, Star Ocean: Second Story, Suikoden III, and Kingdom Hearts. :)

Music Meme!

Do you trust my taste in music? Pick a number between 1 and 513 and I'll find the corresponding song in my collection playlist. I'll upload it for you (and everyone else reading this entry) to grab. [Optional: when you've gotten a song from me, go post this meme in your own journal, so I can grab a random song from you.]

I threw EVERY MP3 I had on my playlist.... c.c; Even if some are only a minute long. Some are "repeats" too (either slightly different, or different singers/covers) I have a .... very eccletic variety of types of music in here... XD Do you dare ask me for a song? :3

Either give me an Email address... or I'll have to use "yousendit" or something to send it to you. ^^;
