Where I Currently Am(FF X-2): Chapter 4... *continued groan* (70% Complete, Bestiary 65% Complete)

Stuff Did Today (FF X-2): Continued watching the CommSpheres... let's paraphrase a bit... No one has seen Leblanc, There's a new fiend out in Bikanel desert. Clasko's watching the chocobos. The head of Argent Inc is hiding something behind the Calm Lands Travel Agency. No one is coming to O'aka's shop. No one has seen Tobli. Kimahri can't come to Yuna's concert. EVERYONE is taking a dip in the Mt. Gagazet hot springs...

Meanwhile, over on Mi'ihen Highroad, Rin is having a bit of a problem and we need to help him investiagate using the CommSpheres... we found a bunch of Machina, a baby Chocobo Eater, and some people messing with some stuff in the back... he thinks he's got a good idea of what's going on... we'll find out later.

We headed over to Moonflow to find Tobli, he's running away from his creditors... whoops, apparently his shows aren't making enough money. We chased him a long way... and caught up with him and he agreed to help produce our show, that's going to be in the Thunder Plains... yeah, that's a great idea. Anyway, he sends out an ARMY of Hypellos to promote the thing.

So, we go rehearse for the concert and get a Shmooth Shailing for our troubles (YES, Creature meat!). Its time for the concert, but wait! First, more commspheres.

Apparently, Beclem really doesn't think very highly of Wakka, and has to go back to the Youth League, but doesn't want to leave the Aurochs in charge... and still no baby. Over in Kilika, Dona isn't sure how she wants to handle a reunion with Barthello, and has sent a CRAPLOAD of balloons up to the temple, including one with the commsphere, which Barthello destroys again... Over in Luca, apparently the Goers are training hard for Blitzball season.

Stuff Did Today (FF XI): Got my thief levels up to 18

Status & Notes: 

I still hate Chapter 4... really, I could leave this notes section just at that and be satisfied... but I don't think that's satisfactory. I mean, hey, you do get a Shmooth Shailing for doing the rehearsal, and that's pretty awesome to feed to one of my creatures. I am like halfway through Chapter 4 now... there's still a LOT of commsphere stuff to watch. Ugh...

Chapter 5 is going to be kind of interesting since I really CAN'T go to the Calm Lands until the very end, since I'll need the PR points. I'll be interested to see how that works out... might screw up my Walkthrough a bit, though I'll deal.

Over in Vana'diel... not much to say. Apparently I was wrong, Thief learns Treasure Hunter at 15... which is fine, but I still want to level Thief up now so I don't have to deal with it for a while. I'm getting a pretty good amount of Crystals now, so I may try some Synthesis stuff soon. Probably cooking will be at the top of my list to start.  My plan is still to get Thief to 30, then switch back to Red Mage and keep going with the Missions... at some point soon I will start unlocking some of the Advanced classes, and get some levels for those at well. Looking forward to Dancer, supposed to be an awesome support class.
