(no subject)

I am 100% confident that if it weren't for HabitRPG, I would spend a very large amount of my time either asleep or staring at walls.

I know this because when I was going through a particularly bad spot a couple of years ago, that is what I did.

On the one hand, it's kind of pathetic. On the other hand... well, whatever works, right?

And now... back to doing laundry.

Yuu is anal retentive about canon details, more news at 11

I decided that I needed to have Valiant Hearts on my itouch as well as on the home computer. So... now I do. I'm so glad.

Really though, it's going to be handy to have a version of it that I can play without booting up the shared home computer (as I mentioned before, it doesn't run on my own laptop). Mainly because I want to write up a timeline of the canon events for my own reference. I've checked already; there doesn't seem to be a writeup on the internet. And while of course I can find dates for the historical events, I'm going to need reference for the character events if I am going to write anything set during the canon. ... Which I plan to. In fact, I already have ideas. Several of them. Some of which have to do with actual historical events.

FML, I'm going to have to do so much research on France during WWI, aren't I.

One thing that did surprise me on starting second playthrough is, in the letters, Marie is still addressed using Emile's surname. She's addressed as Marie Chaillon, not Marie (Karl's surname).
( More stuff about that )

Or maybe they are married, and there is just a logical reason that a married woman would be addressed with her father's surname in a formal letter. I'm not sure.

Oh man, this is going to bug me for ages until I find answers. I guess what I should do first is finish my replay, so that I can confirm whether or not there's anything in the game that indicates whether Marie and Karl are married or not. And then go on from there. I mean, it isn't really a big deal; going by comments I've seen in the few discussions I've found, everyone seems to assume that Karl is Marie's husband. And even when I do write fic (because there will be fic) the subject isn't that likely to come up. But it's going to bug me for ages until I know what the canon says for sure, pfffffff.
