And now for the ladies.
Because the rant below neglected them.
Larxene. Yes, she's usually not totally OOC. But I've noticed she's usually depicted as a straight bitch. Where is her playful side? I mean, fuck, she flirts with Axel to unnerve him, teases Vexen to work him up, and mocks Namine in a playful tone to wear her down. Don't forget how she treated Sora! While a bitch, yes, she toyed with his feelings on more than one occasion. In fact, a direct quote: "You really are a hero. A heartless hero." So... ...Where IS her playful, flirtatious side?
Moving on. Namine. I don't get it. If she's in a post-KH2 setting somehow, she's suddenly back to the girl afraid of her own shadow. Did we forget already that she, well, stood up to Larxene and eventually Marluxia, worked against DiZ and even hacked into his frickin' computer, then later broke into the Castle That Never Was to rescue Kairi, where she was going to face Saix with only her fists? She grew a spine, and she's NOT gonna take shit anymore. Just... What?
And one last quick thing...
Dear certain Xion haters,
Enough with the Axel-and-Roxas-kick-Xion-off-the-tower jokes. I've seen it about a billion times. It's old and tired. And I'm pretty sure there are even haters who agree with it. Drop it. Get new material. Just enough with kicking Xion off the goddamn clock tower.
No love,
Me
