87 → Zelos Wilder FST  
WOW man, this is a fst that really I've been working on and off on for the past few years. Well, really it was just a fst that I never posted and decided to shelve, but I finally got the inspiration to pick it up again.

This was done for [livejournal.com profile] singustosleep's January challenge - with the theme of villain, and the art prompt monochromatic. Zelos may not exactly be a villain, but depending on the choices you make, he can certainly end up as one.

tl;dr I still love this guy - Zelos, the man who can be the traitor, the half-villain, and the reluctant hero that you grow to love or hate. He's rather annoyingly complex, so I won't delve into that too much. Just know this FST barely scrapes this guy. I tried to allude to both paths that can be taken with Zelos, although it's a little purposefully heavy on one in particular. And uh, yeah, massive spoilers all over for a 6-7 year old game. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it! Oh, and er, one song is a little Zelos/Sheena, but I'm sure you can pleasantly ignore the references in it...


THE TRAITOR ❣ ZELOS WILDER FST



THE TRAITOR ( ZELOS WILDER FST )


franz ferdinand ❝THIS BOY❞

It seems this boy's bathed in ridicule
Too forward, way too physical
It's time that I had another
I'm always wanting, more if there's another one
Give me some more, I'll have another one
I'll have a slice of your mother
This boy is so spectacular
Not a boy, but a wealthy bachelor


weezer ❝THE GREATEST MAN THAT EVER LIVED❞

After the havoc that I'm gonna wreak
No more words will critics have to speak
I've got to answers to the tangled knot
Sleep tight in your cot


poe ❝WALK THE WALK❞

Mother spent ten years sitting by a window
Scared if she spoke she would die of a heart attack
She listened as her dreams silently screamed
They drowned like little dolphins caught in a fishnet
Dear world I'm pleased to meet you
Hey everybody when you walk the walk
You gotta back it all up can you talk the talk
Hey everybody when I hear the knock
Don't wanna measure out my life to the tick of a clock


the beatles ❝COME TOGETHER❞

Here come old flattop, he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball, he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please


bright eyes ❝ROAD TO JOY❞

So when you're asked to fight a war that's over nothing
It's best to join the side that's going to win
No one's sure how all of this got started
But we're going to make them goddamn certain how it's gonna end


garbage ❝WICKED WAYS❞

I tried hard to mend my wicked ways
Acted like a lunatic for years
Lord knows I try to be good
I'd keep my promises if only I could
You count your blessings that I can't rely on you
And I tried


placebo ❝ONE OF A KIND❞

On top of the world you get nothing done
Talk is cold and burns like the sun
Can't you see these skies are breaking?
Cause the top of the world is where I'm from
The back of the class is where I was
Keeping quiet, playing dumb
Can't you see these skies are breaking?
Cause the back of the class is where I'm from


xandria ❝SOME LIKE IT COLD❞

I am praised for my sadness
I am praised for my faults
I am praised for my madness
Cause some like it hot
And some like it cold
Evening calls the sunset to rise
I am a liar so take my advice
The wheel of fortune always goes round
Whatever goes up must always come down


sea wolf ❝THE TRAITOR❞

Your grotesque, shrouded body
That you loathe and you love
Is just an accident only you can bear
You're invisible and as wild as the sea
And you hurt what you hold most dear
You're the traitor, and you are me


tori amos ❝PRECIOUS THINGS❞

So I ran faster
But it caught me here
Yes my loyalties turned
Like my ankle


muse ❝GLORIOUS❞

I need to believe
But I still want more
With the cuts and the bruises
Don't close the door
On what you adore
And faith
It drives me away
But it turns me on
Like a stranger's love

I actually *just* finished this game. (Took me forever to find it.) I really grew attached to Zelos by the end. It's nice to see a FST about him. *Is nabbing.*
do you ever get the urge to just run and get gone?: the angels take their share but where[personal profile] paella on January 28th, 2011 05:12 am (UTC)
Haha, wow! The Tales games can be hard to find, so I hear you. I only played it probably three years after it came out, so I was pretty slow on the uptake myself. And aaaaah I love Zelos, he's definitely my favourite from the game, and one of my favourite characters ever. He really does make you love him or hate him, haha! Anyway, I'm hope you liked it though! ♥
