Irvine Kinneas
Final Fantasy VIII: The Beach Episode
The cast of FF8 in comfy Beach wear! I stand behind all of the insane decisions I made:
I fully subscribe to the belief that Squall would have bedazzled crocs. Despite what his original, highly impractical, multi-belt design would lead you to believe, I do think he prioritizes comfort.
I'm obsessed with Rinoa's macrame kimono. And I snuck the stupid finger thing she always does in there, but I swear it was not on purpose.
I'd like to think Zell just grabbed whatever things he found in his mess of drawers and threw it on, quite possibly his mom dressed him, or at the very least gave him the visor and Oakleys. In my universe, he gets to eat Hot Dogs.
It was kinda hard to design a realistic bathing suit for Quistis without going full Surf wetsuit x Bayonetta, I'm not exactly happy with the legs.
Selphie and Irvine look like the poly couple who look at you across the bar and tell you "You look like someone who's fun! Can we buy you a drink?" then actually leave without you and leave you stuck with the bill. No but Irvine is a huge slut in FF8 so why wouldn't he be one here too?
Selphie's outfit is a bit referenced off of Rikku's in FFX-2, they just both have that vibe.
Laguna, Kiros and Ward are here too, Laguna is very much ready. He wasn't invited but he showed up and brought the entire gang anyways, I'm sure the gang not calling him was just an accident.
Silly babies
Throwback to my casual dressed Final Fantasy girls. I love all the outfits for the #ffdd canāt wait to see who is next!
