Vol 6 story 3 snippets

Jun 19, 2006 03:40

Hmm... this is mostly Shouka's family's memories - specifically Shuurei and Seiran. I forgot to mention that Shouka's home is referred to as Shouka's residence while Reishin lives at the Kou residence (makes sense, he's head of the family).

Oh, this is from the side story for ep 11.

bittersweet memories )

Poor Ryuuki. Can't seem to get a break, can he? ;-D

*laughs* Nope. What's worse is the poor guy had all that anger directed at him by his beloved Seiran and Shouka. ^^;;

Oh, man, these outtakes are so cool! ;)

Seiran is still cooler x 100 than Ryuuki, and as it turns out, capable of asserting his princely will even more than his brother. Saiunkoku may have just realized how lucky they are to have Ryuuki on the throne there. ;) Having him order a general and a secretary to cook that way was hilarious! And again, those three make a fine set of friends. :)

"---I'll have the herbalist beheaded imediately." - One more reason to love Reishin!

"When I learned that you'd gone to find the exiled prince, I sent assassins a number of times to eliminate the previous emperor." *guffaws* Protective little brother.

"Hmm... I think the racoon spirit might've been better" *laughing from somewhere under the table ( ... )

PS: Sorry about the repeating paragraph about Seiran. I was posting to this and the post about ep 11's script at the same time. Though Seiran is so cool I could repeat myself. :)

Shouka's lovesickness really makes me want to see what his backstory is now. It actually seems as though Shuurei's mother was quite the sarcastic personality. So, that means Shuurei's nice nature comes from her father?
I'm not sure actually. Shuurei does resemble her father in some ways (her love of learning for example), but from what I've gathered, the household was ruled by her much more than Shouka. I think though, that she was, in her own way, extremely kind, but at the same time, extremely, extremely stubborn. It took a long time before she returned Shouka's feelings or anything, and she insisted that love couldn't solve everything. At a guess, she may have been #1 in all (Shouka, Seiran and Shuurei) their hearts.

Seiran's impossible bet with Shuuei was funny. I wonder if Shuuei's womanizing will show up in that supposed red light district in Ep 12?*laughs* I love that bet. ^___^ Seiran really has the upper hand when it comes to Shuuei. :P I think we'll be going into the second side story in book 6 in ep 12 before we ( ... )

I do wonder why Shouka was ordered to kill his wife to begin with, but that is a story for a different time. I guess considering how gentle Shouka is, his wife provided a balancing character in strength of will. Based on the snippets we've seen thus far, she was a strong mother for Seiran and Shuurei.

So as Shuuei notices, Seiran is quite a man at his age, and pretty. I find it quite difficult to believe, with all the pretty people in the cast, there aren't any more women about to tackle at least the older men about. Sure, I admire his dedication, but it's not quite fair Ryuuki gets all the fun. :)

I smell a love triangle here. Or possible a quadrangle...

Poor Ryuuki...
