someday the dream will end

[FMV: Yuna continues the sending, on the airship. In the background, the Aeons are floating around, and Sin falls down, exploding in a MASSIVE blanket of yellowish energy that spans a huge distance. The Airship floats above the cloud of yellow. We see the Aeons, floating around, get sent. Sin's fin explodes in a huge burst of energy as well. On Mount Gagazet, the fayths turns to stone, and the pillar of blue energy turns into a ball of water, then vanishes into many water bubbles. In the bubbles, we see images of the people of the dreamworld; Tidus is one of them. Back on the airship, Tidus looks at himself, as he begins to fade. Yuna shakes her head]

Yuna
"No."

Tidus
"Yuna, I have to go."
"I'm sorry I couldn't show you Zanarkand."
"Goodbye!"

Wakka
"Hey!"

Rikku
"We're gonna see you again...?"

Kimahri
"Yuna!"

[Yuna runs to Tidus and passes through him. Everyone gasps. He looks at his hands; pyreflies fly up from his body. Yuna, lying down, watches a pyrefly fly up in front of her face. They go into the air. Yuna stands up; their backs are facing each other]

Yuna
"I love you."

[Tidus turns and faces her back, a sad look on his face. Yuna faces forward solemnly. He walks up to her from behind and wraps his partially-fading arms around her. He fades through her body, walking forward. We see a final shot of the group; Kimahri and Lulu are showing little to no emotion, though Lulu does do a small wave. Yuna's still staring forward. Rikku is jumping and waving. Wakka looks sad and dejected, almost like he said/did something wrong. Tidus, burying his anguish, turns around and sprints to the edge of the airship, and jumps off. He floats down through the clouds, and vanishes...we see Braska, Auron, and Jecht. Jecht sticks out his hand; Tidus slaps it]

[Scene change; on a dock in Luca (presumably) looking out to sea. Yuna whistles. She breathes, and whistles again. Lulu walks up the dock]

Lulu
"Yuna, it's time."

[Yuna turns around and walks to Luca Stadium, which is behind her. We see an overview of the stadium, with no blitzball waterball. However, the stands are packed and everyone's cheering. Yuna is standing on a balcony looking at the people]

Yuna
"Everyone...everyone has lost something precious."
"Everyone here has lost homes, dreams, and friends."
"Everybody..."
"Now, Sin is finally dead."

[They clap. We see a shot of Yuna: standing behind her, to her right and left are Rikku and Wakka, respectively]

Yuna
"Now, Spira is ours again."
"Working together..."
[Lulu is shown, then Wakka, Kimahri, and Rikku]
"Now we can make new homes for ourselves, and new dreams."
"Although I know the journey will be hard, we have lots of time."
"Together, we will rebuild Spira."
"The road is ahead of us, so let's start out today."
[She turns around. Wakka nods, and the rest of the group seems happy. She turns back to the crowd, who are cheering wildly]
"Just, one more thing..."
"The people and the friends that we have lost, or the dreams that have faded..."
[We see quick shots of FMV's from the game. In order, they are: Kimahri growling, Rikku on the airship deck looking around, Lulu, Auron, and Wakka looking around at Zanarkand in Guadosalam, Seymour kissing Yuna, and the scene with Tidus and Yuna at the lake, culminating in an overview of that area of Macalania Woods. Yuna is then shown, as a small pyrefly flies by her face. The screen goes black; the pyrefly continues to float and flies off-screen]
"Never forget them."

the end of a dream

i just completed final fantasy 10 a few minutes ago
the ending was disappointing
Tidus, the main lead did not end up with Yuna, the female lead after all
he was a dream dreamt up by people whose souls were trapped (fayth) and used as "Aeons"
(or something like that...all FF games are slightly messed up)
to help rescue Spira (the world where Yuna and her friends live in)
from Sin (which is this moron called Yu Yevon combined by an aeon).

what was seen as hope was actually a dream
tidus was a dream
tidus was not real
so is hope then, real?
or is it like what Yunalesca (another character) said ?
that hope was..comforting
it was to provide false happiness to lessen a tradgedy

this game has either made me more messed up or wiser
i guess it's both of the above

false hope

england just lost to brazil a few minutes ago
think world cup is screwed
if that's the case
senagal will hold the 2002 world cup already
what is hope then?
it is a false entity which comforts people
rather than facing the tragic truth itself
hope was there to comfort us
to ease the pain
it never changes the outcome
nor lessens the effects of the tradgedy
i wish you godspeed, senagal

stranded

You know it only breaks my heart
to see you standing in the dark
oh, waiting there for me
to come back
I'm too afraid to show

it's coming over you
like its coming over me
crashing like a tidal wave
that drags me out to sea
and I wanna be with you
if you wanna be with me
crashing like a tidal wave
and i don't wanna be
stranded, stranded, stranded, stranded

but I can only take so much
these tears are turning me to rust
I know, you're waiting there for me
to come back
I'm too afraid to show

I miss you
I need you
without you i'm stronger
I love you
so come back, i'm not afraid to show...

Hippocrates

"I swear by Apollo by Physician, by Asclepius, by health by Panacea and by all the gods and goddesses, making them my witnesses, that I will carry out, according to my ability and judgment, this oath and this indenture. To hold my teacher in this art equal to my own parents; to make him partner in my livelihood, when he is in need of money to share mine with him; to consider his family as my own brothers, and to teach them this art, if they indenture; to impart precept, oral instruction, and all other instruction to my own sons, the sons of my teacher, and to indentured pupils who have taken the Physician's oath, but to nobody else. I will use treatment to help the sick according to my ability and judgment, but never with a view to injury and wrongdoing. Neither will I administer a poison to anybody when asked to do so, nor will I suggest such a course. Similarly I will not give to a woman a peccary to cause abortion. But I will keep pure and holy both my life and my art. I will not use the knife, not even, verily, on sufferers from stone, but I will give place to such as are craftsmen therein. Into whatsoever houses I enter, I will enter to help the sick, and I will abstain from all intentional wrong-doing and harm, especially from abusing the bodies of man or woman, bond or free. And whatsoever I shall see or hear in my intercourse with men, if it be what should not be published abroad, I will never divulge, holding such things to be holy secrets. Now if I carry out this oath, and break it not, may I gain forever reputation among all men for my life and for my art, but if I transgress it and foreswear myself, may the opposite befall me."

my story

this is my story.
it started the day i was born
when there was still Sin in the world
Sin is still present today

listen my story
for this may be the last chance ...
i've been searching for a missing person all my life
to understand him better
be his good buddy in times of need

this person, this friend
has the many faces of a chameleon
he laughs and cries
sulks and frowns
loves and hates

he isn't well liked by his other friends though
some think him eccentric
while others plainly, cocky
but no one would understand him better than me

he has since left with the door open
the only memory of him is my sole self alone
is there really hope of finding him back?
but what is hope in the first place...

isn't it an illusion for us to look forward to in tragic times and prove futile in the end?
hope is to comfort isn't it
it is false hope incognito.

this is my story...but i will find my own ending
