Some people (actually, only
sacchii and a few others) know that I am a huge Lavi/Linalee fan. I can't be the only one who thinks Rabi sounds better >__>
I've recently gotten updated on D.Gray-Man, up to Chapter 158, and regarding them, from the Lavi/Lenalee-supporting side of me:
I AM HAPPY
(Very very long useless mostly unintelligent squeeing over small meaningless hints that doesn't need to be taken seriously. You might not want to read this)
Sorry, no pictures, because I can't seem to upload anything right now. :(
Starting off with reading Chapter 73, and seeing Rabi with that worried face, wondering why Linalee hasn't come back instantly made me a Rabi/Linalee shipper (though I've thought of this pairing way before)
And my response at the cover of Chapter 74: RABI WITH NAKED LINALEE OHMIGOD LOL. And how he went LET ME SAVE LINALEE angrily, while everybody else tried to make him stay on board. And how he yelled out "Linalee's human like you!" and AKJFLJALFLJLA officially a fangirl now. Though he might do the same thing if say, Allen was the one at sea who hasn't come back.
But I'm curious as to why he said this, as he looked for the girl:
Linalee... Where are you? You should be around here somewhere... This is a bad joke... You're making me remember bad things...
What bad things, exactly?
Next; chapter 75. I died with happiness. I thought it was a very sweet scene, with Rabi actually crying with happiness (?) over the fact that Linalee's alive. Hey, at least it shows that they're at the least very good friends. I squeed over the cuteness and if only I had a high-quality version of the scene I would colour it. D:
Then on Chapter 79, though there's no Rabi/Linalee moments, I liked how both Rabi and Linalee care about Allen so. And since Rabi reacted in the same angry way he did back at the boat now in this scene with Tyki, him wanting to save her didn't seem as... exclusive to her as before. Nevertheless, seeing good friends makes me just as happy as seeing hints of my OTP.
Skipping right away to Chapter 99, where Linalee gets covered in the crystal thing. And she called out everyone's names called Rabi's twice yay which was also a sweet scene. Moving on.
Aaaand Chapter 105, there was Allen being nice, comforting Linalee. "You're not like Linalee I know. After all, you're older than me, right-"
Then Rabi comes into the scene and pushes Allen out of it. "YOUR SENIOR'S NOT GIVING UP EITHER" with a D: face and proceeds to comfort her as well.
Chapter 110; Allen helps Linalee walk up the stairs. Rabi proclaims his willingness to exchange spots and walk at the front (aka to walk while holding a girl's hand). His motive is obvious to the others.
Then Linalee accidentally says out loud, "I have to keep trying", and everybody else's responses amused me, especially Rabi's:
WHAT SERIOUS THINGS ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT, LINALEE?! I'M GOING TO SLEEP! YOU GOTTA SLEEP ON THESE KINDA THINGS! SOMEONE PUT A BLANKET OVER ME! (what?)
Continued with: YOU GOTTA THINK MORE SEXY THOUGHTS, LINALEE! OTHERWISE YOU'LL NEVER FIND A LOVER- which elicited violent responses, such as Allen (?) kicking him on the head and Linalee grabbing his collar embarrassedly. STFU RABI.
Then another scene besides the "you're making me remember bad things" thing confused me.
Rabi asked Allen what he was going to do when they get back. He started by saying "It's none of my business, but...". Linalee, whose hands were still on Rabi's collar, went "?". Then Rabi apparently flustered, and Linalee asked "Rabi?", as he continued with his sentence.
What's with that small scene?
Chapter 111: OHMIGOD HAND SQUEEZE. AJKJLAJFKSF. To put it simply, Linalee was worrying about the fate of Krory and Kanda, and Rabi, noticing her worry, squeezed her hand, telling her to get a hold of herself.
'Allen's trying his best as well.'
Then there was that smile people use to assure others that everything will be alright. So, all of the things I wrote here are not exactly romantic (including those playful half-flirting he does with probably any pretty girl), but it shows that he cares about her a lot, which matters, whether they be romantic feelings or not. :D
Chapter 114: Why is Linalee the first one that pops up in a coffin? And why does he keep holding on to her
Lavi's memories in Chapter 119: When he first came to the order, he saw a crying Linalee. Besides from wondering who Linalee was crying over, I thought it was cute seeing his surprised face as he saw the girl. AND SITTING NEXT TO LINALEE ALL THE TIME IS THAT SUBTEXT.
Then he got stabbed by both Kanda and Linalee threesome? >__>
Uhhh because I can't be bothered to go through the next chapters right now, here's Rabi answering some questions in the Volume 7 Talk Room.
Q. Why isn't Ravi interested in Linalee?
Ravi: Eh? Who says? I'm interested in her, yo.
Allen: Eh? You are!? (sweat)
Ravi: Yup. …Say, Allen, why are you sweating so much?
Allen: No-no reason… (stuffs food in face)
Ravi: Uh-huh. (evil grin)
Well, the playful way Rabi said it doesn't make it very meaningful, though I thought it was funny. XD And since I quite like Allen/Linalee, too, it seems like it's hinting something. >D
Q. If Allen, Kanda, Ravi and Linalee were not Exorcists, what would they be?
Ravi: I'm a Bookman. Though I'm an Exorcist too. I have no interest in being anything else!
Allen: Me… I could be a travelling performer. It'd be fun to be a clown, so that I could make everyone laugh.
Ravi: Linalee would be… someone's wife, I guess?
Allen: …As long as Komui is around, I don't think that'd ever happen…
Whose wife, Rabi?
Q. Please tell us what type [of girl] Ravi likes!!
Ravi: Hm~ type? I guess I like “widows”?
Allen: Ravi, you actually truly prefer girls older than you, don't you? (stare)
Ravi: No such thing~ I'm really interested in Linalee too, for example. Say, 40 at a maximum, 10 at a minimum, so anywhere in that range or thereabouts, I'd hit. (beams)
Allen: …………………………
I assume Rabi fangirls between the age of 10 and 40 are going to squeal with joy...?
