Description

the sound of the water.

the smell of the sand.

the whispering of the breeze.

it's like it used to be, before--


we pave the roads we take
we bend before we break
across the world with you, across the world with you...

the love you never found was right here all along.
waiting here for you, waiting here for you...

when words mean nothing, I'll be here singing
on and on and on and on.

worlds away, I'll still be singing
on and on and on and on...


×××××




That song always, always, always makes me think of KH and Riku, Sora, and Kairi. And it just tugs on my heartstrings; I don't know. It never fails.


Title of this picture--cruel, right? I can't help it. It's what this picture is.

>_> Ah, yes. The costume and its time-consuming lines. You'll have to ask ~ShinraiFaith just how tedious that was. I just sat there and tried not to jerk when it tickled. xD

A picture can mean a thousand words... in this case its 1,100 words. (if you include the lyrics ^^)

Beautiful job on everything, it really wrings out so many heart-felt types of emotion from the shot. Just by looking at your eyes (...eyes so saphire and perfect), I can see longing, pain, and maybe some hate, all of which Riku would have felt. You play him so well!

Great job as always! <3

RubyRose2094 In reply to fullmetal-punk [2010-03-25 20:49:39 +0000 UTC]

ur welcome! Yeah, a lot of the time its easier for a person to portray something if they know what it feels like already, or is feeling right then. It would be hard for me to pull off any type of shot like that, b/c i've never really gone through anything to make me have that certain look. (i usually just smile like an idiot XD)

Keep up the great work and beautiful shots!

Very nice detail on the top and leggings! The pose works really well to accentuate those details as well as show a sense of vulnerability. Your expression and the way hair falls into your face also add to this sense. A lovely shot of a great Riku cosplay!

The title definitely fits. It's like loneliness and sadness and that small feeling of something missing, but being unable to grasp at it.

Yeah. This captures Repliku. Amazing.


And that song...it's nice. I like it, and I definitely get a Sora/Riku/Kairi vibe from it.

ArixanTheUltimatum [2010-03-24 02:46:57 +0000 UTC]

GRAAAHHHH WHY MUST YOU BE SO BEAUTIFUL!?!?!

Okay-- first off:

Cosplay looks stunning as always. I'll never be able to get over how amazing that is!! *want*

Now.. what REALLY catches my eye:

In the thumbnail, your expression looked determined or even a little angry (understandable for Repliku). But as I full sized it and looked again-- you almost look sad. Lonely, perhaps, is the better term, but there's a kind of pain that grips in deep in my chest when look at the expression on your face and that loneliness in your (as usual) one visible eye (copying Zexion again? How dare you! XD)

It's like, the lighting on your face and the way your mouth is just frozen would make anyone think you'd just turned to the camera and froze after taking a breath-- but then there's that heart breaking gleam in your eye, the slight visible curve in your eyebrow that betrays the mask of the rest of your face.

Seriously, you almost look like you want to cry. And you look so beautiful at the same time.

*applause*

...a;lgjasdlkga;lkj I just love seeing your long comments. xD

I adore the depth and profundity of your thoughts on my stuff, because they just capture so much and I love hearing that people get what I hope will portray.


(No, not copying Zexion, I'M REAL, DAMMIT, I'M ME-- ...Oh wait, isn't that Roxas's line? xD)


I'm sorry I don't have a long comment back this time, but do know that I appreciate your words so much! Thank you!
