I am seriously too free

I got bored, so I decided to find some site that would let me make my own customized poker cards. With all my P3 feels, I went ahead and make one for P3, including P3:FES and P3P. It took me a while to decide what pictures to use, as the art was not as good in the past as compared to now. I had a lot of trial and errors, until I finally came to this, and it looks really nice! All I need to do now is consider how many to order. Apparently ordering more would result in cheaper prices per deck. Hence I'm contemplating if I should order a couple more, just to sell. I know it's considered "illegal", but I plan to just sell 4-5 sets? I dunno... I guess I'm really proud of my work and hope to spread it.

Then I went ahead and make a Persona 4 one, which I wanted to make more... vibrant and colourful. While the P3 one was plain, I wanted to make this one more catchy to the eye. I used the artwork from P4U and P4G, as they were the most up-to-date and awesome art, and inculcated the characters from P4U such as Elizabeth and the P3 characters in. I missed out Marie from P4G, but I wasn't sure if she was canon, plus the fact that I ran out of "space" among the cards, brought me to my decision to leave her out.

I did contemplate whether to use fan art found online, but feared that the artists may come and sue me or something. Sure, using official art doesn't make it better, but I'm guessing there's a higher chance that the artists would find more fault than the company.


Despite considering that, I ended up creating a Shingeki no Kyojin deck, this time using fan art along with anime material. It's definitely harder because I googled for way more pictures, and I made it such that every card had their own picture, unlike the Persona series ones. So yeah, it's long, and satisifying (that's what she said). I'm not complete yet though; I'm contemplating waiting for more episodes of the anime (due to lack of pictures), before actually finalizing it and deciding whether to sell some (while getting for my own as well).

Anyway, with that aside, I tried out this new Ultraman series, called Ultraman Ginga, and I guess I outgrew Ultraman, because despite the show taking things differently from its predecessors,  I still found the whole thing quite boring. Even the fighting scenes couldn't make up for it.

Last of all, today I saw a photo in her profile that really shook me and made me realize how horrible a person I was. I became the thing I wanted to protect her from, and was my own worst enemy. Now all I can do is live with regret, for who-knows-how-long...
