LINA:
1. An X icon! I think it is no secret that I adore my X icons to death by now, right? This one in particular gets a lot of use because it's a toned down expression for her and can be used in a variety of ways. o kakyou you get the best expressions out of hokuto >:
2. Here Hokuto is looking at the test results of Subaru's and Sei-chan's ~love connection~ and in general wtfing at it because they did horribly. I usually pick my other reflective/thinking icons instead but if it's a crackier thread this one might come out. o/
3. ... this one I'm not positive on where it's from. I THINK it's from the scene where Hokuto talks to Sei-chan in the hospital after he got de-eyed. She's being fake and cheery after saying bitch don't mess with my brother to him. Lina asked what the heck she was wearing in this icon! AHAHAHAHA....h-ha. T-this is so tame for Hokuto. :(
1. This is just a general please don't hurt me Ioryogi-saaaan icon! I LOVE THESE ICONS and I enjoy abusing Kobato. Plz be apping Ioryogi so I can upload more of these. 8Db
2. This is from the last chapter of the Exams! I don't think I've actually used it IC yet! Whoops. It's a mildly emo/healing related icon. I mostly have it because I think CLAMP draws hands really sexy. DON'T JUDGE ME.
3. Also from the last chapter of the exams! This one is post-bottle getting while the previous one was pre-bottle getting. Kobato was so incredibly thrilled the end of this chapter and she makes her happiest expressions of the entire series in it. THIS IS ONE OF THEM. I-I really kind of adore it.
USAGI:
1. I can't recall what prompted her to make that face in the least. gj me. I THINK it's from volume one. Either Sei-chan was being weird or Subaru was being stupid. IT'S USUALLY ONE OF THOSE TWO. Haha, Hokuto doesn't make that sort of topped or bewildered expression often so I enjoy when I can bring it out.
2. This is from one of the few chapters where Hokuto actually has a cute and sensible outfit! Shocking. I sadly got very few good icons out of it. She makes this face after Subaru says something particularly self-sacrificing, I think. Never change lil bro.
3. Oho! From Hokuto's side chapter where she saves a prostitute who was on the run from the police. She was very sweet and kickass in this chapter and we got to see a lot more sides than just the ridiculous over-the-top Hokuto we get when she's with Subaru and Sei-chan. I needed a few more icons that were more neutral and serious and this one fit the bill!
1. Emooo icon is emo. From the Exams! No bottle = Not able to heal people's hearts = Not being able to go to that place = EMO KOBATO.
2. I was hoping someone would ask about this one! It's from the first chapter of the Exams. She's basically just going I'LL TRY AGAIN HARDER NEXT TIME ;o; as she is wont to do. I DIDN'T COLOR IT. I stole it from one of the cards in CLAMP in Cardland and iconned it. Why color things myself when CLAMP'll do it for me? 8D
3. Kobato loev bottle. A lot. From a similar scene to the previous scene except now she has the bottle and that expression comes from just the idea of filling it up. Not an icon I use a lot but it's too pretty for me to rid of either.
More to come soon!
1. Reply to this post, and I will pick three of your icons for each of your characters.
2. I might ask specific questions about the icons! What context were they pulled from; what coloring technique you used, wtf is with those keywords, etc.
3. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
4. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
