if you liked it then you shoulda put a ring on it
Meme involving the selection of five fandoms and the answering of questions snagged from caeseria. Because I have nothing better to do with my time.
1. Godchild
2. Cantarella
3. Saiyuki
4. DOGS: Bullets and Carnage
5. Vampire Knight
1. Which is your favorite series from your list? And why?
That's a very difficult question, but I'm probably going to have to go Godchild, if only because the characters, uncluding the secondary characters, are absolutely amazing, the art is stunning and the plot is awesome. Pretty boys, angst, victoriana, poison, shounen-ai, fairytale references...what more could a girl want?
A certain person and I (you know who you are if you're reading this), must have written several thousand words on a forum thread analysing EVERYTHING we could think of about this series. And then doing it again.
2. If you were to pair two characters from 1 (Godchild) and 4 (DOGS), who would they be?
Whoa...trippy. Hmmm. Look, you know what would be very screwed up? Jizabel/Heine. Mmm. Or perhaps Crehador/Badou. My worry about the former is somebody is going to end up bleeding very profusely.
3. What is one thing you'd like to change about 3's plotline?
Hmm, the plot is pretty damn good. But, if I could change anything...GIVE ME CANON 53!
Also, in terms of the plot of the anime, particularly Saiyuki Reload, ENOUGH WITH THE FILLER.
4. If both main characters of 2 (Cantarella) and 5 (Vampire Knight) were falling off a cliff, which one would you save?
Well, look, admittedly Cesare would probably survive the fall given him special powers and whatnot. But really, he's far too pretty to be allowed to even risk a tumble off a cliff. And conveniently, I hate Yuuki with a bitter, burning loathing. So I'll save Ces, thanks.
It's not like Yuuki would die from that anyway, goddamnit.
5. Which event was the most horrible for you in 1 (Godchild)?
Oho. Ohoho. It was...*chokes* I mean to say...*sobs* That is...*whimpers* I CAN'T TALK ABOUT IT! DON'T MAKE ME SAY IT! *wails*
6. Which is your least favorite character of 2 (Cantarella)?
LUCREZIA. URGH. Although I have to say, in the latter volumes, Chiaro doesn't get many points either. I still don't dislike him to the same extent I dislike Lucrezia but...well, Chiaro, let me ask you this. What the hell did you think was going to happen, huh?
7. If the antagonist of 3 (Saiyuki) were to rape the main character of 1 (Godchild), what would you do?
This...is a very weird question. And an even weirder answer. So we're talking Sanzo and Cain, I suppose. Um, what would I do? Probably stare blankly at whatever news source I was getting this information from, wonder what happened to space, time and reality, then wonder which crazy fanfiction authors been fucking around with two of my favourite characters. Then I'd get out my 9mm. There are some things a girl cannot forgive.
8. What song reminds you of 5 (Vampire Knight)?
Well, I don't have any that remind me of the series in general, but 'I Can't Find Peace' by Pale and 'Behind Your Mask' by Blutengel remind me a lot of Kaname. 'My Sweet Prince' by Placebo and 'You Make Me Sick' by Egypt Central are two of my KanamexZero songs, and 'Cold' by Crossfade is my angst Zero-to-Kaname song. I really should upload that fanmix...and read the rest of VK...
9. Of 1 (Godchild), 3 (Saiyuki), and 5 (VK), which is the easiest to think about?
Probably Saiyuki. Because thinking about Godchild at times causes me a lot of pain. Though I do have this massively AU fic I must post. Soon.
10. Are the protagonists of 2 (Cantarella) and 4 (DOGD) similar?
So Heine and Cesare? Oddly enough, they are in a way. They're both struggling a lot with 'inner demons' of a very literal kind. Then again, Ces is a lot more the 'cold, intelligent, devastatingly sexy but evil' guy, whereas Heine is more the 'angsty, tortured, smexy-but-kind-of-psychotic' guy with a tragic past.
In other news: NCIS LA FTW. Now I have NCIS on Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Thankyou, PtB. Also, G is damn freaking sexy. Opening scene with the shirtlessness and the bullet scars? Yes please.
