An Entirely Different Icon Meme

Ganked from [livejournal.com profile] bangles, because I love hearing the little stories behind things.

Everyone has at least one icon that is totally contextual. You have to know the source to find it funny. Mostly.
Every icon has a story.

Tell it.

(You don't have to do every icon.)



This...is one of the ones with the most story behind them. It helps to have seen the original (cosplay pairs featured - [livejournal.com profile] skuldcan/[livejournal.com profile] spark_658, [livejournal.com profile] ariseishirou/[livejournal.com profile] choffman, and [livejournal.com profile] rackhamrose/me). This is just a remake of that one with cookies. The original joke is [livejournal.com profile] rackhamrose's - the X fandom has a massive number of gay or bisexual members, and while I don't know the exact story there, she decided that Seishirou made the X fandom gay. This was the era when all the 'My fandom...' icons were popular, so...made one myself XD; This is my 'signature' icon, I think.

For the people on my flist not into DMC fandom - this is Sparda, a legendary demon swordsman and the father of DMC's star, Dante, and his twin brother Vergil. He is also the reason why the twins are so screwed up, and screwed over. Mmmm, daddy issues ^^

For the non-Yami fans on my flist - Tatsumi is Hell's accountant, quite literally. He's a shinigami, and he looooves the money. No, really, Tatsumi/money OTP. I cosplay him and also love the money, leading to many jokes, and [livejournal.com profile] moonything (who made the icon) spontaneously turning Christine and Raoul's love duet of 'All I Ask of You' into Tatsumi-Tsuzuki 'pay me, that's all I ask of you'. This is my stressed out crazy-eyes icon.

RE's Ada and Leon. They love each other, as far as we can tell. But they also love their jobs, which for Leon consists of saving the world from evil, and for Ada, being a double-crossing corporate spy, which means that the relationship is kind of screwed. Leon is also a really nice guy (thus all the 'saving the world' bussiness), and as such is the 'doomed romantic'. At the same time, though, it's also kind of come to be me, as well, given my ability to fall for people who I either 1) can't have or 2) can't be with. And yeah, I am kind of a romantic deep down inside. Flowers and chocolates and all.

Aforementioned Leon. He always strikes me as kind of an outsider, in many ways, and sort of goes off and does his world-saving on his own. Also, he's really hot with a gun XD;

One of the ones with the most story, but the most easily explained - second paragraph here. This is my great big nerdy icon.
