A Thug Lost In Love (Part Five)

A Short Story

HAS CAPTIONS

One - Two - Three - Four - Five

Notes:

The wishes are more or less just orders. Every day (alternating) one twin can order the other to do any one thing (the one being ordered CAN decline, but they’d have to do something else, and neither of them are too big into denying each other). It’s something that they started when they were young after they were abandoned by their parents in order to feel more at ease with their situation and it has grown into a ritual that they continue to this day.

Sonri HATES being drawn just as much as Solma HATES being written about.

The problem with female armor in video games

isn't so much that it's skimpy or unrealistic. Fantasy isn't reality, obviously, so few things conform to historical accuracy, armor and attire included. However, problems arise in two situations. Situation 1: Skimpy and unprotective is the only option. Sometimes, I want a pragmatic female character without regard for physical attractiveness. Situation 2: Women in bikini mail and heels amidst men in full armor. This shows a clear disregard for female characters (and perhaps women in general) as anything but walking sex toys by portraying men as living people needing physical protection and women as magical objects to whom physical laws do not apply. As a gamer, I'd like options for all of my characters, female or otherwise. Barring that, I just want everyone on even footing.
