Strange...

Destiny.
A word with a lot of meaning behind it. To be guided into your path, rather than deciding it for yourself. It is one of Square Enix's most dealt with issues.

But, in my own world, I like to think I am the creator of my own path. The choices I made are what brought me here, rather than being guided by some force unknown to me.
Or was it?

I was watching Kuroshitsuji just recently. I finished it tonight. As I did, somethings clearly rang home to me- or rather, a sense of deja vu.
If it weren't for the angels, the backstory of Kuroshitsuji- the demons, the setting, the way the demon is portrayed, could have very well been a story from Atrum Somnium Terra.
I'm not joking, here. I never touched on it much because of the story centering around the Seven rather than other demons, but it is very possible to sell your soul. In fact, souls are mentioned in AST- it is the Seven's job to regulate them.
Plus, Terra maybe a modern world, but what time is Atrum set in? The Steampunk era, aka Victorian.
(how did I point this out, you wonder...I found an old picture of Blank. Guess who he looks like. Just go ahead and guess.)

It's happened before with FF8. My original fangame draft had the same plot twist as FF7- and the first time I played 13 years ago, I named Squall Zac. ZAC.

But meh. Dismiss my blathering. I've started a 'bridge' comic, Fangs, which is set after the second arc of Vivian and Visus's stories, while Blank is nursing the two back to health with the help of the two Lex's, Egaile and Zacharya (new character, will explain later).
After coming home from work, he and brunette Lex have a conversation as to how exactly Lex became a werewolf. Lex only agrees to tell Blank on the condition that he tell his own story.
If you've read this post in its entirity, you can probably guess what Blank's job is while he is in Atrum. Teehee.
