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 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...
