Library Girl?

[Shoden]

that makes no sense because where in the game is there enough evidence to prove them theories? ultimecia and edea are different people seifer and edea are well in an age difference, he never showed any affection towards her and squall was always a loner, ellone isnt rinoa for many reasons they are in the same time and its before time compression, Rnoa is the daughter of general caraway and Julia heartly whilst ellone's parents were brutally murdered in front of her she was adopted by raine leonhart.


im not being mean but some of those theories make no sense at all as ultimecia achieves time compression on disc 4. if you listen to that dosctor odine guy he says ultimecia can come to the ast coz of his invention. if he destroyed his invention wouldnt it stop time ultimecia from coming to the past?

BackRoomKid U DON'T KNOW WHO ZELL IS?! Ok. Fine. I would explain him but if you really wanna know, PM me and i'll tell you. Otherwise, you probably don't play FF8. *Sweatdrop*

Future Esthar lost me totally. I halfway understand. But see, being blonde *NO offense to anyone* i don't understand a lot. Enough to get through life but, eh, well, let's just say I could be the next Jessica Simpson brainwise. not vioce. Lol. J/K

[Future Esthar]

I am not brilliant.Just a long FF8 player.These were extrapulations.They contradict what is said on the game.Some of the things I told were purposeful lies(to deviate you from the thruth because this one is farfetched).Of course i will not tell you which.
But most of them i am really convinced of.
It assumes that some people on FF8 lie or at least says something inaccurate based on an inacurate experiment.It can happen that a lie propagate to many different persons but they dídn´t know it was a lie (and tell it to others).
For example,the Estharians discovered that the Pillar enable monsters from falling from the moon.They thought this based on the currelation between the Crystal moved places and the places where the monsters fall.But it didn´t mean nothing.How do you know that a person is not possessing the monsters and at the same time moving the Crystal Pillar with remote control (to atleast produce the force field that brings them down)?
Edea told you that Ulti comes from the future.But even considering she is not Ultimecia
how do you know that she tells the truth to Edea while possessing her?To me it seems to be on the past.There is no indication that it was on the future(if there is tell me).So one can assume that Edea could be lying(or telling a non purposeful lie).

So when I post a theory I base it not on the dialogues(they serve to distract you from the thruth) but on the game imagery and visible facts(location and shape of city on world map,some phenomenas,the topology and shapeof the cyties on the field,apparent non important events,etc...).I also use secondary characters and non relevant events to the story (they made them non relevant to deviate you atention).These subtle things apparently had nothing to do with the story but they have more importance to the game than most of the things in the storyline.I will give examples in another thread(this one is getting big).

I'm going to have to assume -- or hope -- that you make this stuff up just for the "What the hell?" reaction it gets out of the rest of us, Future. Logic would dictate that anything not written into a story or implied within a story by its writer(s) -- or stated or implied by them in an interview -- isn't there. The writer(s) is/are their story's God. If they don't create it, it's not there.

Folks can create their own story based off an official one, sure, but it in no way has bearing on the canon of the official story, and I honestly don't see what place it has in discussions about the original story. Why bring such stories into discussions about the official story as though they apply?

[Future Esthar]

I edit my reply.It will give you the answer to your question(near the end).

I've now read it.

Or they could just use the story to convey their intention... which is what writers do.

For that matter, I don't see how the architeceture of Balamb or the topography around Timber is going to convey things like "Seifer was married to Edea despite him only being five years old when she was at least 16."

[Future Esthar]

Not all writers.Sometimes they leave the story open for your imagination.These(the topology,geografy,etc..) were just examples.
Edea and Seifer were married before Well Organized Time Compression (WOTC).
X performed WOTC to bring the kid Seifer and the adult Edea to the orphanage on the present.Of course Seifer was brought from a time earlier than Edea.

[Squall of SeeD]

Yes, but not when they definitively state that green is green and not red, or in this case, show us that Edea and Ultimecia are two different People and offer no suggestion that they are the same.

These(the topology,geografy,etc..) were just examples.

And some People see Elvis in their mashed potatoes, but, again, I fail to see how the way the grass lays on the Galbadian plains tells us anything about Seifer being married to Edea or Ultimecia, and you have yet to substantiate why this is so.

Edea and Seifer were married before Well Organized Time Compression (WOTC).

Offer in-game evidence of this. And what do you mean by "Well Organized Time Compression," by the way? You've been using that term a lot and I -- like the rest of our fellow Forum members -- have no idea what you're talking about.

X performed WOTC to bring the kid Seifer and the adult Edea to the orphanage on the present.Of course Seifer was brought from a time earlier than Edea.

Can you offer in-game evidence of any of this -- without it being geographical Palm Reading conducted by you? If it's something to the effect of "The spots of darker barren rock around Esthar strongly indicate this to be so," then I'm sorry I asked.

[Future Esthar]

Hey,hey,I said that geography and topography were examples,but I also telled you of subtle events and other things.In resume,IMAGERY and ANIMATED SUBTLE EVENTS serve in general to disprove dialogue´s.For example we know that Deling isn´t dead because his eyes blinks.Of course the player tends to ignore it and go save Rinoa.That is why it is a subtle event.
By the way,geographiy and topography can be used in general mostly to prove WOTC.
I already explained to Salistaleshun in a private message what is WOTC
The explanation is big and took me over 8 big messages.
But strangely he didn´t reply.Wonder if he understood or didn´t agree.

[rubah]

I don't remember deling blinking. and there's also the whole 'omg, he doesn't do anything for the rest of the game!'

Do you realize just how hard it is to put imagery as it is in works? There's a 'method' of analyzing stuff (several actually, but this is the one we have to use all the time:P) called DIDLS. diction, imagery, details, language, and sentence structure (or syntax or something)

After two years of doing tons of these, I can tell you, a lot of the things you can find to support a tone (which is the point of the didlsing anyways) is a lot of crap. The better you can use your imagination to make stuff up, the more depth you can give in supporting your chosen tone.

Which brings me to this. Authors rarely put in a ton of subtle devices to add entire substories to their works. If they did that, the sheer planning would take way too much time, and we know authors are stereotyped for being behind on deadlines.

And that's for writing a book

FF8 is a four cd game. That's a lot of stuff right there. It takes a quite a while to code this, and games probably have stricter deadlines than books do. They cater to a more impatient audience.

They aren't going to put in stupid MINISCULE details to bring in entire subplots when there are perfectly good explanations already given BY the game itself.

You're just BSing more than a person taking the AP english exam:P

[Future Esthar]

Actualy I have found a lot of them.For example,don´t you use graphical and verbal details to show that Squall is Laguna´s sun?But I don´t wanna to go in a discussion anymore.

[Camanche]

Deling's character model 'blinks' because that is how it was animated when it was meant to be alive. The creators simply didn't 'turn off' the blinking animation during the scene where he is laying there, dead. It's very subtle and hard to notice, so they didn't bother.

And this type of thing has happened in more than one Square game. When (SPOILER)Aeris is stabbed, her ribbon loosens, and falls out of her hair in the FMV, But after, when Cloud's character model is holding her dead one, the ribbon is back in her hair.

Square simply didn't remove the ribbon, even though it clearly had been show to fall out of her hair. It something small, and rather unnoticable, so they didn't bother changing it. It's the same thing with Deling.

(I'm sorry Squall of SeeD, I know I shouldn't have! Please forgive me!)

[BackRoomKid]

BackRoomKid U DON'T KNOW WHO ZELL IS?! Ok. Fine. I would explain him but if you really wanna know, PM me and i'll tell you. Otherwise, you probably don't play FF8. *Sweatdrop*

lol...funny...trust me, i play FF8, tied for first on my top FF's list...my point with my comment was that this talk of zell and the Library Girl went off to like...seifer, rinoa, and everyone else...just a lil' spamming I like to do...lol

but i do wish more was put into the library girl, then again, its just the "cute" part of the game, a tough guy like zell that has a crush...funny to me

[Camanche]

I liked Zell, but personality-wise, he seemed more whiney than tough to me. Heh heh.
