ABYSSWEEK: DAY ONE -- CONVICTION
A young Largo -- Badaq, the Lion of the Desert -- realizes his life is no longer just about guarding merchants and travelers for money. With the birth of his daughter, he has someone to protect for the rest of his life, from love.
He thanks the Score for this blessing.
Announcing the return of Abyss Week, a fan event celebrating Tales of the Abyss!
The event will take place March 8th through March 14th, 2023.
Any and all fan creations are encouraged: fanfiction, fanart, cosplay, meta, headcanons, graphic edits, YouTube videos... whatever your love for the game inspires!
The prompt theme for this year is unlikely parallels. Feel free to use any or all (or none!) for each daily prompt. The point is to celebrate Tales of the Abyss however you choose.
Any questions? Shoot us an ask or reach out via the @talesofexchanges Discord!
ABYSSWEEK: DAY TWO -- KNOWLEDGE
Luke: I’m a coward.
Jade: No. That part of you is something I lack. I...still can’t really grasp what it means for people to die.
One of my favorite Jade scenes, particularly because it’s one of the few times he genuinely admits to anything, let alone that he doesn’t understand something his younger friends take for granted.
I like to think that over the course of the game, Jade does come to understand it. All of the extraneous theories and schemes and snide remarks fall away and he finally sees more clearly. Perhaps that’s why the game lingers on him in the epilogue.
I decided to leave it ambiguous whose grave it could be.
Happy Lorelei Day, Tales of the Abyss fans!
The Score recommends celebrating by leaving a comment on a favorite Abyss fanwork or making a post about your favorite Abyss characters or moments.
Please enjoy all of the Abyss Week works for this year, either here on this blog, on our Twitter, or in the AO3 collection. We're going to keep the Abyss love going all year long, so if you wanted to make or post something after today, use #AbyssWeek2023 and we will still reblog it.
May Yulia bless us all.
ABYSSWEEK: DAY SEVEN -- FREE DAY
Yulia and Van, those who spoke with Lorelei.
ABYSSWEEK: DAY FOUR -- LOYALTY
Is it love if it was destiny?
Is it loyalty if you’re loyal because the planet remembers that you were?
ABYSSWEEK: DAY THREE -- NOSTALGIA
Natalia and Dist, preoccupied with thoughts of childhood, of a past that seems so much happier than whatever the future could hold.
