Croatia, huh? I'll have to look into that one. Nothing really stood out for me at a glance, but then again Poland was hella fun.

Photobomb incoming.

First of all, Croatia has the most beautiful coastline I've ever seen, bar none. The drive from Dubrovnik to Split is amazing. I didn't get many pictures that weren't blurry, but it was one of the most amazing bus rides I've ever taken.

Dubrovnik:

You walk around at night and see alleys like this:

Up the coast is Split:

30 minutes by ferry from Split is Hvar Island. I stayed here for three days and would have gladly stayed a month. It was incredibly relaxing and beautiful.

You can rent a motorbike and drive all over the island. You'll get amazing views from the highway.


And one of my favorite places on Earth is the Plitvice Lake area. Some of the most beautiful water I've ever seen.

It has waterfalls:

Gorgeous views from up high:

Really a fantastic country. There's lots of good food like burek and lots of good fish. And really amazing ice cream everywhere.

C'mon, you know you want to read this.

AGNUS: It was my assumption that those demons would prove far inferior... In
the face of your tactics.

DANTE: You summon and kill... Summon and kill... I fail to see the logic here.
Is sanity the price to pay for power!?

AGNUS: Humans... They are but stubborn and foolish. It takes a journey to Hell
for them to accept and praise their God. A fact that tickle's irony's
judgment.

DANTE: And your judgments interests me not. For I'm here... To reclaim... What
is rightfully mine.

<AGNUS transforms into demon form and holds up his sword.>

AGNUS: Yamato! That is what you seek. And that is why I wait in your path!

DANTE: You will fumble in your opposition of my quest.

<He fires his gun into the air.>

DANTE: Though I encourage! For an opportunity to battle a being of such grand
delusions as you, is a sweet fortune!

<DANTE soon beats AGNUS in battle, and the latter transforms back to human.>

AGNUS: How... can there be such a difference b-b-b-between us?

DANTE: You surrendered your humanity. It's that simple.

AGNUS: But you are not human...! So why am I inferior!?

DANTE: You assume humans are weak... OK yeah, their bodies lack the physical
ability of a demon, but humans possess something that demons don't.

<AGNUS is seen taking notes of what DANTE is saying.>

AGNUS: What...? What is it that demons l-l-lack? Please, for the sake of my
research! Please! Tell me!

<DANTE puts a bullet in his clipboard, causing all the paper to fly into the
air.>

AGNUS: No! No, no! Oh no, no no no no...

DANTE: If you're gonna continue your research in the next world...

<AGNUS holds up a page of his ruined notes, and sees DANTE aiming a gun through
the hole.>

DANTE: Do your homework first...

<He shoots, and AGNUS is thrown back onto a bench as he dies.>

DANTE: And the rest is silence.

<He finishes off the musical with another gunshot.>

Go easy on me GAF.

Or tell me I'm shit, whatever

First Day of My Life cover

I'm not a fan of covers that sound all like the original and shit, so tried to make it something different. Complex harmonies mostly because my voice is weak as hell.

Wow, I've been thinking about this song all day. One of my favorites, lots of emotions and memories tied to it. Will listen when I get home.

Really nice work Hawk. You need to share stuff with us more often!

Thank you :)

That was my first time recording anything remotely like that :p

Here's some of my instrumental stuff:

Just listened, I like this a lot!

Share more stuff, Hawk. :O

Aw, RPGaf encouragement ftw!

edit:
Here's some quick links so you don't have to wade through the crap on newgrounds:
My cover of Gary Jules' cover of Mad World, with a ton of improvisation
My cover of Judy Collins' cover of Both Sides Now
An arranged, chorusless version of Orchestra by The Servant
My highest rated original pieces:
The Mines of Vellum
My Wanderlust
Wellstone (this is a funeral dirge for Paul Wellstone, he was a personal friend)

The First Day of My Life cover was the first thing I've recorded since getting a digital piano so the quality of everything else is pretty bad... (just a mono mic set up by a live upright piano)

Apparently I sound like a smoker. Good to know. D:
