    Similar qualities such as:

    Extremely pixelated
    Possessing only surface-level emotions
    Only displaying attributes assigned to her by a man
    No need to poop

    That's most her attributes, though.

    ^ got eem.

    furthermore
    There are such things as attractive/positive attributes that can be possessed by one. These traits, whether physical or within the realm of personality, can be displayed either through entertainment mediums, stories, or real people that we encounter.
    art draws from life, life draws from art
    what comes first, the chicken or the egg
    etc etc etc

    Now the problem to me lies really in the idea of time being stopped to chase such a microscopic chance. What I mean by this is:
    Are there women out there who might look like Rinoa? Very much perhaps so. Whether by accident or through nature, it's not an unrealistic thing to occur.
    Are there women out there who possess some of her personality traits? Way more than there are ones that look like her.
    Now here's where it starts to get tricky. Are there women out there who possess either all of her personality traits or even a majority of it? The pendulum starts to have longer and stagnant swings towards the unlikely side of things.
    Now to want a woman that looks like Rinoa, an already limiting concept, with all or even a majority of her personality traits is a horrendous act of abuse to the feeble* human body. It's not impossible, but the likelihood of it happening within your lifespan while in the range of your age frame divided by morals and societal perceptions is tiny. Now if you're still stuck within your needs, the only two suggestions I can think of at the moment are finding someway to time travel, possibly a century forward or backward, or figure out how to astral project and look for a morphing and willing apparition.
    If you choose to bear your human feebleness, like the rest of us, I'd say the best way to go about this is to go through some sort of ego death process with this want of yours. Go through all that comes with it, the revelation that it probably won't happen, the pain, all the stuff that is a result of your personal feelings being an obstacle, a dam between the waters of truth disallowing its flow. Then you can be your own Squall, who finds in their own way their own Rinoa, who ultimately might not be anything like Squall and Rinoa.


    *any mention of feebleness is not done so in a condescending rhetoric. I am implying that the human experience, with the limited constraints of a lifetime within the infinitely open field of time, is innately very feeble against the majority of whatever everything is out there.

    I read your post and it gave me a virus. Then again, no need to fear. My computer is fine now and it's probably just some stupid pop-up ad.

    Does Astral Project work at all? Seems like pseudoscience.

    well read it again

    and tbh I'm not sure, but I don't dismiss anything just because I haven't experienced it. That's dumb

    I've tried but it never works. I think I have tried hundreds of times already.

    Isn't all love basically just falling for fictional versions of each other?

    That's a nice way to think of it. We are all fiction.

    It was a course of over 10 years.
