Replaying FFX-2, Ramble on Homosexuality in Spira, and Story Buglets

Yes, completely and totally replaying FFX-2, not from a New Game Plus (and God knows I've got some uber ones), but from the beginning, with the goal of getting 100% along the way. The Spira story bug is rising, as well as the rant bugs, and my general adoration for Rikku/Paine.

I don't know why I like that pairing. I suppose it just makes sense, at least as much as Rikku/Gippal or Paine/Baralai and it appeals to my inner lesbian. AND in my little imaginary fic universe, I can plot out Rikku and Paine's feelings better as a couple than I can in their straight pairings.

ExpandThe question of course, is in the expression. )

So, to sum up the entirety of that rant, I feel this urge to write an extended Rikku/Paine story, but don't want to make it exclusively Rikku/Paine. Which means I need a plot. I've got a couple vague themes, but they definitely need fleshing out and somehow put together in a coherent story.

Anyway, it's late, and I'm tired, so I'm gonna finish watching the Hana Kagari video (song is seriously catchy), and then go join Muu for the the sleeps.
