Gosh, what didn't grab me about Gale is an easier question to answer. I knew, pretty much immediately, that he was going to have a special place in my heart. The fact that he was the only member of the team who actively resisted gaining emotions even though it was obvious he had them struck me initially; his near-obsession with precision and logic gave him the impression of being quite ruthless, and that pinged me deeply. Yet, he still had these moments where he'd seem to lose himself briefly, before repressing himself for the sake of logic. It's not until he meets Lupa, over halfway through the first game, that he slowly starts to awaken. Basically Lupa tops the hell out of him and opens his eyes to things like honor and justice, and Gale finally breaks and awakens. To me, the scene where his emotions finally click in is very powerful, and without spoiling too much, it was a deeply emotional scene. Gale becomes someone who still holds intelligence and logic in high regard, but understands the importance of compassion and friendship. HE CAN STILL BE A RUTHLESS, COLD MOFO but he never loses himself or forsakes the things he reveres. Even when he finally understands what Angel means to him, he doesn't let it interfere with his position in the Embryon. He's incredibly smart, but not emotionless. He can be so serious, but in certain situations, he'll show he has a very special sense of humor. And yet, because of the nature of who he is, there are still simple things he doesn't quite understand, but because of his logical mind, he'll show such a thirst for knowledge and zeal to discover more things about life and living. He'll unwaveringly hold a man at knife-or-gunpoint to gain the information he needs, but at the same time could be planting flowers with Sera. Gale's amazing, and holds a very special place in my heart. ♥
