101. The older I get, the more I am creeped out that I like teenage boys. But anyway, what I wanted to say was that Edward has stupid hair and I hope to God that's not in style.

102. Why in the world do you want a memory problem?

103. That movie has a fandom? 0.0 I thought it sucked.

104. It wouldn't have to be that fat. Straight people don't fall in love with people of the same sex.

105. Corsets are awesome!

106. yah-oh-ee. Say it kind of quickly and blend the vowel sounds together, like "yah-oy." Japanese is actually kind of easy to pronounce - just say it how it's spelled!

108. Is that the one with the autistic kid?

109. Define "a famous artist."

114. You are another fucking fangirl! Darn it, stop being so superior!

115. But what are your thoughts on the mermaid problem?

117. I -- eww. What? Incest lol?

118. Watch a different show?

119. And made out! :P

125. Tracing is sometimes okay, you know... I'd love to know the story behind this little wank! Does anyone know?

132. I hate it when my therapist doesn't believe me. It's really unprofessional of them, I think, because it gets in the way of healing when I have to convince them that I'm telling the truth!

140. Fandom saves! The rest of us take full damage.

143. Well, please explain it to me! WTF is the deal with SEELE? What did they hope to achieve? Why does everyone turn into goo?

145. Just because it's David Tennant? I mean, canonically, Barty Jr. was totally uninterested in sex and not even good-looking.

147. If people were unashamed of wanting to rape and/or beat up characters, they wouldn't be secrets, would they? It's just a fetish. Not a big deal. It doesn't turn into real behavior most of the time.

154. What about Mr. Mars? I love Mr. Mars! And Logan! All the guys on that show are doable.

157. I think art change is interesting! Re-designs have the potential to piss me off, but normal evolution is just cool.

176. It's most obvious between Hayden and Milo, which sort of pisses me off because on the show they're related and they get paid a lot of money to act like it. *fumes*

Not the 143 OP, but...

143. Well, please explain it to me! WTF is the deal with SEELE? What did they hope to achieve? Why does everyone turn into goo?

SEELE are the group responsible for Second Impact and are trying to initiate Third Impact, thus completing the evolution of Humans and combining them into a single, god-like entity so that any individual's weaknesses and faults are complimented by another's strengths, by breaking down the walls that separate everybody's souls [that being what Third Impact is]. >> Everyone turns into goo because that's how that's accomplished.
It actually doesn't make any sense even if you DO know what's going on, but. xD

Yes, I am a dork, before you ask.

143 OP

(Anonymous) 2008-06-17 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I always figured that SEELE suffered from the same thing as Lord Voldemort... that is, a villain needed for plot advancement whose motives don't really make much sense.

Re: 143 OP

[identity profile] aidanraccoon.livejournal.com 2008-06-17 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Admittedly, that makes a lot more sense, but dammit, I didn't watch it to have it make sense. >> (Ends up that it DID make sense, but...)

Re: 143 OP

[identity profile] redcoast.livejournal.com 2008-06-17 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm so confused. *cries. Well, not really.*

I really don't understand why any villain's ultimate goal would be to become Tang, but ... if it advances the plot, all right.

Okay, new question: Why is what's-her-name clearly Albino but nobody ever points it out?

Also, what's the deal with the Angel who looks like a human and lets Shinji kill him? (I think part of my confusion is due to the crappy sub I watched.)

Re: 143 OP

[identity profile] aidanraccoon.livejournal.com 2008-06-17 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
-laugh- Well, the tang is basically the final product of human evolution. And yet... IT'S BLOODY TANG [bloody both being used as an expletive and the fact that LCL/SOUL JUICE supposedly smells like blood], so it's still a moment of WTF-ery. xD

Rei... I think they just took her in stride, because she's weird enough. She's just special [read: the vessel for the soul of the Second Angel and basically mass-produced]. xD Not that most of the characters know that, but she's special enough that it's probably taken as a given.

And Kaworu.
Ah, Kaworu.
Well, what do you mean by 'what's the deal with' him? I can probably answer the question, but I don't want to have to go into an extremely long tangent if I don't need to. xD
But. Um. He's just the last Angel. One could argue that he lets Shinji kill him as a final act to drive him utterly loony [Asuka's been MIND-RAPED and Rei II just blew herself up, so Shinji's ALL ALOOOOONE], by befriending him and then making him kill the only person that's ever shown that much kindness to him. (Some fans completely miss the point and take him for face value, or maybe I could be missing the point and over-analyzing it. XD Take it either way you want.)

Re: 143 OP

(Anonymous) 2008-06-17 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
The whole "evolving humanity into tang" portion is due to the writers not understanding how real life evolution works. That's what I always thought. XD

I'm guessing no one points out Rei's "albinism" is because they got more pressing matters at hand, ahaha. Also, she's "albino" in an indirect way of showing the audience that something's not quite natural about her.

Kaworu lets Shinji kill him because... dude, that part I didn't really get, but I believe that him living would've allowed some bad shit to go down. Kaworu learned to value humanity through his friendship with Shinji, thus him not wanting Third Impact to happen. I think.

-laugh-
I think we may be confusing the poster even more.
Damn you, interpretable nature of Neon Genesis Evangelion! -shakefist at the sky-

Re: 143 OP

(Anonymous) 2008-06-17 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
hahahah. That's just the thing - the series makes sense to me, but I have no clue how to properly explain it to other people. XD

154 OP

(Anonymous) 2008-06-18 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
Meh, I don't think Mr. Mars or Logan are hot. But you can have them~

Re: 154 OP

[identity profile] redcoast.livejournal.com 2008-06-18 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
I'd probably do everyone but Duncan. No, I'd probably do Duncan too.

Re: 125

(Anonymous) 2008-06-18 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
Not OP but I'm so glad I'm not alone on thinking it's okay to trace sometimes. I think I'm gonna make a secret about tracing in general and leave you with this for now.

re: 104

(Anonymous) 2008-06-18 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think it's out of the question for a straight person to fall for a person of the same sex. Whether or not they work it out is another question entirely.

The OP

(Anonymous) 2008-06-18 10:28 am (UTC)(link)
You're right saying tracing is sometimes okay but this is something entirely different. Said person posted pictures and told everyone "omg, I drew this alone in xy hours and it was soooo difficult. Comment on my hard work, pls!"

I admired her, really. But after a friend of mine sent me all the pictures she used as drafts I couldn't stop frowning.

Re: The OP

[identity profile] redcoast.livejournal.com 2008-06-18 05:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd love to see the evidence.

Re: The OP

(Anonymous) 2008-06-18 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't post this secret for fun.

Re: The OP

[identity profile] redcoast.livejournal.com 2008-06-18 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps you should lighten up a bit, get a sockpuppet LJ, and see what other people think.

Alternatively, you can come clean to the fan artist about what you know now and give her a chance to defend herself. If I were her, I'd prefer that.

It shouldn't piss you off. They do act like they're exactly what they are. Related people who were raised in completely different environments and didn't meet until they were adult or nearly so. Google "genetic sexual attraction". It's very common for closely related persons raised apart to fancy the pants off each other and even to act on it. Besides, Tim Kring has said he wrote all the family arcs in the series using romance plot and pacing.

SRY2SAY, those are the FAX ma'am :)

Re: 176.

[identity profile] redcoast.livejournal.com 2008-06-18 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I know about genetic sexual attraction, but I don't know how much research has been done on it - maybe some anecdotal evidence has been overblown. It seems more likely to me that their offscreen chemistry accidentally bled over onto their screen lives, but off course this is the sort of thing over which much difference of opinion applies.

Re: 176.

[personal profile] cleverthylacine 2008-06-18 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I just can't help thinking that if they weren't supposed to be like that Tim Kring would have told them to cut it out.

Re: 176.

[identity profile] redcoast.livejournal.com 2008-06-18 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I don't think Kring directed any of those segments, and, you know, it's TV. They don't have a lot of time for retakes, they don't want to piss off the stars, etc. It's tough to say in any production exactly what the intent was, because by the very nature of a collaborative endeavor, there are many intents and differing accounts of what goes on during the shoot, and stuff like that, though, so that's why I don't really want to argue about it. I doubt we could come to a satisfactory conclusion.
