I just realized the new look makes it kind of look like a fanfiction site...
"He climbed down the cellar stairs and peeked into the darkness. Behind some crates he found the sword, just where his mother's letter had said it would be. It was truly enormous. Impressive, despite the rust and the smell of mold and dust. No normal man would be able to lift it. And these days there was no Mako energy, and the Lifestream had settled back beneath the earth's surface. It all felt like a legend where he stood, the sword so large only half of the blade fit inside the beam of his flashlight.
But if it was a legend, then he was the son of that legend, and with the rising problems he had a legacy to live up to and bring the kind of rescue only legends could produce. Trembling slightly he set the flashlight aside on a crate and gripped the handle of the Buster Sword. This would never work."
Aaanyway. I respect FF7 too much to produce this kind of crap :) I remember I made an attempt long ago, choosing like this to write about their children, because it's damned hard to take someone else's character and try to keep to their personality. But I came to the same conclusion then as I will always adhere to: that FF7 is above all this >.<
So no. This is not a fanfiction site.
I actually take it a step further; I adopt the Lifestream as a model, a representation, of what I actually believe in and present it as my religion. (Yes, I've made FF7 my religion... in a sense.) Thus the Lifestream chronicles is the history of the world, and this blog my perception of it.
This post got a lot longer than I meant... but it was a lot of fun to write :)

This layout is really cool and all, but it's a wee bit straining to read since the text is a little dark, at least on my computer.
As for making FF7 your religion, I was struck by an interesting thought - that's turning a story into your religion. Which isn't all that strange when you think about it - the Bible is a story, after all.
I like the new look. It has a very cave-next-to-dark-water-kind of feel to it. Also you seem sort of hindu to me.
