Not as much as my boyfriend, but not bad, either. (Okay, I cheated a little on the Slashdot question, but after all, it only asked what the slogan was, not whether I knew it off the top of my head. I also counted tabs instead of windows

Hey, I never said I understood everything about how Yuan thinks. There was probably something he had to do regarding the final disposition of the Renegades or something...in addition, of course, to the fact that the game couldn't fit more than eight members in your party, which is the real reason he couldn't come along.

Yuan stayed behind on the planet to guard the Great Tree, according to Meowzy. I think that's sweet and tragically romantic.

You've made some excellent points, and it's a pleasure to talk to you. No need for apologies, I'm difficult to offend, and I love having lots of posts to respond to on my entries. ^_^

I'd be more than happy to write up rants for some less-popular pairings as well, at some point. I ship lots. ♥

Hm. But that would still be a poor excuse. I've known people who complains about characters like Presea and Regal, and it's not senseless hate either. It's because their character scheme feels so rushed, their excuse to join the party so clichéd and rhetorical and the interactions so slim (at least compared to the other characters) that it might have been as well to not add them at all. I don't really agree with Presea (and Hien Messoujin in PS2 is a god-sent, from what I've heard), but I guess... It's a bit like that for Regal, I think. He interacts with Lloyd, but stick with Presea most of the time, which makes his overall interactions poor (oh, and the fact that his personality resembles Kratos' minus the whole Cruxis fiasco). I am in the opinion that Fujishima was high when he designed Regal, and as much as he might excel in battle, people who are more drawn to characters' physical appeal and storyboard development tend to overlook him more often. I think he would have made a very dandy NPC, but at any rate, his overall character

...Oops, I should warn you, you've stumbled on one of my hot-button topics. See, I won't defend characters or pairings with large fanbases very strongly, because there's just no point; I'm not likely to enhance their fandom by doing so. Small corners of the fandom or unjustly unpopular characters, however, do tend to set me off. To translate: I may be ambivalent in my defense of Kratos, but I will protect Regal's small fanbase with everything I have

Oof. If I offended, then I'd like to apologize. -Tried to sound matter-of-facty-ish and state the reasons why Regal is less appreciated- I had to confess that I'm one of these that didn't feel the pull from him as a character, and while I could say the same for Sheena (she felt bland, honestly; missing that one ting that makes all the other characters different and interesting on the characterization plan), she still, undeniably, looks better... ^^; And easier to fight for me. But... Yes ma'am. -salutes

Nah. I noticed that only people sensitive about x subject gets offended when spoken of, so I usually wave my hand, apologize, back out and mentally note to never mention said x thing again in said person's presence. ^^; It avoids unnecessary conflict. >__>b

Oi oi... Hopefully more will "see the light" someday... including me. ^^; Though it is a very good point... His love for Alicia might have something to do in it... -Speculates-

Lloyd is an idealistic. Genis is a brat, but with enough persona and kiddy wit to laugh at Lloyd and Zelos. But Sheena seemed just... THERE, an even bigger tag-along than most. She just crushed on Lloyd and slapped Zelos around (__< But really, I've learned alot just from these posts. >___>; Alors merci beaucoup!~ ^^
