Mar 29, 2008 11:34

Got any questions, comments, critique?

Laharl's gotten stupid messed up here, there's no denying that, lol. I worry a LOT LOT LOT. DX I've made a lot of mistakes, I'll be the first to admit that. There's a lot I wish I could go back and rewrite... even in recent threads. orz But yeah, um, I'd rather have someone contact me like this than like... ( Read more... )

I don't know much of the fandom really yet, but from seeing Laharl in other situations (DC, lol) annnnd even him from the beginning of Paixao, I think his reactions are fitting. I mean seriously... he's gotten the most screwed with, lol. Holy crap I'm surprised he's still kicking :OO

Haha pure stubborn-ness I guess? ^^; Haha yeah, "Screw With Laharl" is like Paixao's favorite past-time I swear. XD;;; Of course, I'm a terrible mun and go "uh... okay :D" haha But whew. Yay, thank you for your comment anon person. ♥ :D

I think it's better to go slightly "OOC" in response to torture than simply shrugging it off. Torture screws people up, and while some folks recover more quickly than others, scars happen and there is some kind of recovery time needed.

I don't know the character well enough to say for certain, but I'd be fairly confident in calling Laharl's reactions "character development re:extraordinary circumstances" rather than "lol OOC burn the witch".

Whoo, another anon comment :O ♥ I didn't think I'd get replies much less so soon.

He hasn't even really had a chance to recover. .__.;;; It's been like one thing after another, lol. But, yeah, when I went into this the idea was to knock him down awhile since he'd been ready to start causing the Org all kinds of trouble. I didn't want him to just bounce right back, and it didn't seem to me to be realistic... although he's been trying to pretend to have, but it's like Larxene keeps coming and knocking the stool right out from under his feet. (...LOL that's a funny image)

But ah, thank you very much for the comment!

I do trust you that he's IC. From what I know of him I don't like him in his canon, either.

Although, when I say I don't like him, I didn't and don't mean it as a comment on your particular portrayal of him, and I kind of wish you didn't jump to that conclusion every time I say something about his character. That's why I don't feel like I can say anything about it to you in person, you seem to take it really personally.

*should probably quit with the anon since it's probably getting painfully obvious who I am by now anyway*

Ah, I'm not trying to take it personally? I'm sorry I come accross that way sometimes. Problem with computers is sometimes it's too easy to make it seem that way and I tend to kinda go into ohgodspazz mode. Been hanging with Angie too much.

I guess saying you don't like him makes me feel like I'm not doing him justice then? Although if you don't like him in his canon then I guess there isn't much to be done. lol I've been horribly spoilt by the vast ammount of support and love around here, which I appreciate more than I can possibly say, so I guess it's a bit of a shock to suddenly hear "uh I don't like him"... but I'm not really taking it personally. o.O If I've driven you to hate it uh... haha oops. XD That would kinda, uh, suck to have done. ^^;;; Goog jorb me. /o ( ... )
