I was going to do a first impressions meme when Gino hit 1k, but he's 300 comments away from that and, you know, I'll probably hit that this weekend in the midst of my rapeshifts. juri loev working!! Which means I would inevitably forget to finish that meme or would have hilarious responses.

SO. INSTEAD. Let me revive a meme aviy came up ( Read more... )

RIGHTO. Gino likes Ty Lee quite a bit already. To be fair, it's hard for Gino to not like anyone, but Ty Lee really ... clicks with him. She's fun to talk with and also good with the whole physical contact thing, which makes her comfortable to him! If that makes sense. She's definitely someone he keeps an eye out for and hits her up when he sees her, even if he doesn't really have much to talk about.

OOCly, I think I mentioned to Suzaku once that the similarities between the characters are kind of hilarious. I-I mean, Gino is a noble, he's the fourth son of this VERY WELL-KNOWN noble family (lol his family lol), ran away from home to join the military, now has this high-ranking position, [sort of uh boiling rocks Suzaku at one point IT WAS HIS FAULT] ... there's more, I think. It was ... pretty special.

Aaaand back at you! Ty Lee's thoughts on Gino?

Hahaha I thought of the Boiling Rock thing too the other week. Also both characters were introduced in the second season instead of appearing in the first, so there's another AU twin connection.

But yeah, keywords are very appropriate here. Ty Lee loev Gino, for pretty much the same reasons Gino likes Ty Lee. He has an established connection with the Geass cast which gives Ty Lee more stuff to talk about due to the Geass cast and the Avacast meshing a lot in camp, the fondness of physical contact is always a way to score insta-points with Ty Lee, and plus there's the whole "really cute" thing, which makes it even better (I'm honestly astonished that Ty Lee hasn't shamelessly flirted more than she has thusfar, though maybe it's because she's more inclined to be flirty with people she knows she'll get funny reactions out of ( ... )

Oh Ty Lee. ♥

HAHAHA man I am just happy he survived. But he also was in a picture on Kallen's corkboard! Tianzi and Villetta were in it as well. Despite the HILARIOUS insinuation that Gino went to China, I think that was just ... a party picture, especially since he's still in his Rounds outfit. Anyway, Gino loves Britannia. I really cannot see Gino leaving Britannia forever - he only really defected towards the end of the series because Britannia became a Britannia that was so warped from the country he loved, and there was no real way for him to change that aside from fighting against it. Which is why I sometimes forget that, oh yeah, Gino was fighting under Schneizel. That struck me as less "I FIGHT FOR UUUU, SCHNEIZELLLLLL" and more "This isn't the country I loved, and I want to do what I can to fix that." Uh, tangent!ANYWAY, I figure he would have no problem with Cornelia or Nunnally as Empress and would very happily serve under them again as a Rounds. Since he's ... really the only one remaining (lol anya and her orange farm ( ... )

UH I can ask about Gino on Suzaku in camp, but if that is a MEAN QUESTION then. . . hm. One bit of headcanon about each of your characters? Or as many as you feel like.

I'LL ... ESSAY ABOUT YOU EVENTUALLY. sob.

Robert is actually a fairly good cook. He doesn't sleep much, so he does a lot of random things in the early morning hours, which includes reading through cookbooks and maybe sneaking into the kitchens in the dorms if he can get away with it, without being caught by anyone. He even goes as far as to switch the dust jacket on the book he's going through with another. It's not something he's interested in talking about, and if it ever got brought up, he'd give some sort of noncommittal answer.

... god that was long. J-JUST HIM FOR NOW. And question for you! How does Suzaku feel about having Gino in camp? First impressions, general thoughts about it ...?

. . . ahahaha well, I guess they haven't had any really in-depth threads yet, but Suzaku is obviously extremely confused! Gino is someone who seems very familiar with him (enough to call him by his first name, drape on him out of nowhere olol) but doesn't seem to know Suzaku as he is now. e.g. Suzaku can't understand why he would be rude to a Knight of Rounds in their world because of the rank difference as well as that's just not how he rolls now. So that disparity unnerves him. And he's anxious about their world in general because he's stuck in camp and unable to ATONE FOR HIS SIIINNSS change anything for the better if anything happened. Kallen's behavior on her arrival also set him on edge, and now he's just. . . really uneasy. :( Granted, he loev denial and convinces himself that it's fine on the surface, but. . . yeah. ANXIETY ( ... )

lolo sorry about that Suzaku. 8D ALSO WE MUST THREAD MORE, YES. Just ping me sometime when you feel like playing and I will jump you. ♥

Hahaha oh man. The worst part is that Code Geass used to be my default answer for this, and ... we can see how that turned out! I think I can safely answer with Gurren Lagann, though. I adore the series and I contemplated apping two or three characters, but at the end of the day, it's not a series I really want to play from because I'd rather play with those characters.

Characters you've contemplated apping but never will! Name one of them. o/

I mean, Kidd's thoughts on Chrona?

P.S. Keigo and Gino need to meet because Keigo will probably love him until he starts thinking of Gino as his RIVAL!!1!

Unsurprisingly! I love the ambiguity. I love having it be a complete mystery and watching people (both ICly and OOCly) make assumptions on Chrona's gender. It cracks me up. Every time Oz calls Chrona "my lady" I laugh really hard |D! I wouldn't really mind if it was ever confirmed, because I really don't think it would matter. Chrona pretty much has no gender identity (in my interpretation), so picking one or the other wouldn't affect my playing other than that I would giggle a little less each time someone offers to give Chrona a makeover. (this has happened more than once ( ... )

Camp to Gino is JUST LIKE A MOVIE! :D ... on a more serious note, it is really strange and disorienting, especially since there's people back from the dead and whatnot, but he isn't too thrown by it. Part of what helps is that Kallen is from the same general time period, so it's not like some weird dream where everyone is alive! And happy! And also, it's Gino. He takes things in stride and he's relatively good at adjusting (as long as it isn't shit like EMPEROR LELOUCH), so ... it's not that difficult for him.

He does have mixed feelings on some things, Euphemia being the big one. It is really damn hard for him to keep up a conversation with her, because he knows what happens in her future, and that puts him on edge around her. The SAZ incident wasn't cool with him, but at the same time ... it's Euphemia. She comes off as being incredibly sweet and caring, and that's the one thing that really disorients him. I COULD GO ON MORE ABOUT THIS, but suffice it to say, stuff like lol euphie!!1 are the few things that throw him. Everything ( ... )

SEE MY COMMENT TO ALTO

More specifically, Kallen does ping him as an interesting person. She's attractive to him! And the big thing with them is that ... Kallen responds to him. If people respond to Gino, he'll respond back and it'll go on for god knows how long ( ... )

What are Gino's thoughts on Kallen in camp? Also, I really need to thread with you :D

serialdrapist September 29 2008, 18:10:23 UTC
I'LL DO THIS BEFORE HER RELATIONSHIP MEME. Uh, spoilers for part way through R2, but I'm pretty sure you're up to date on it!

It's ... mm, a little strange for Gino. When he left, Kallen was a prisoner of war! He's pretty sure he saw her locked up! But then he comes here and she's here and doesn't even remember it, which threw him for a loop. The good thing about Gino is that - he's a very easy-going type. He's not stupid, but he's easy-going. He's got a good separation of the battlefield and everything else and whatnot. So, as long as Kallen isn't ACTIVELY ATTACKING ANYONE, he's cool. And he could pretty much tell from their first thread that she wasn't intending on doing anything of the sort in camp ( ... )

Man, I have a soft spot for Gino and Kallen ._.

Well, I expected a Macross ending, and I got a Macross ending. I have a feeling I'll enjoy the finale even more when I watch the episodes in a close proximity rather than waiting from one week to week. It was well executed and well paced, and it wrapped up most of the loose ends without leaving a space for plot holes. Everyone made sense in the end.

On the other hand, I wish the writers was bold enough to resolve the love triangle. I know that there's a movie coming up where it may or may not get resolved, but I'm feeling impatient because it feels like I've been watching Frontier for far too long now. This means that I will have to keep on tiptoeing around serious heart business when it comes to Alto, but the finale has given me a decent idea of how to handle his developing character. He's finally moving to be at more peace with himself.

What canons would you rape me into apping and why?

serialdrapist September 29 2008, 23:09:14 UTC
I-I do too. I'll probably end up doing a massive essay of some sort in a month or so. and I hope the DVDs give us a picture drama with something from episode 23 at some point or. Something. ._.d

UHM, Geass is the big one. My method of raping is usually going to people that I know have seen/read a canon and whining at them to app. This is totally an awesome method, rite. But also, I like reading what you write about your canons, so I'd be interested in your take on some stuff in Geass, characters, and whatnot, heh.

Who is the one character from one of your canons that you want in camp?
