Re: 101 OP
(Anonymous) 2008-12-22 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)But even though Subaru fills Seishirou's position as a Dragon of Earth, it's by obligation, a secondary side effect of taking the eye, not by choice; he essentially sits on the sidelines and just watches, which he never did as a Dragon of Heaven. Yes, he left Kamui and the Dragons of Heaven while in mourning for Seishirou. Yes, he accepted the burden of Seishirou's role as Sakurazukamori just so he could hold onto that little piece of him. But even with all of that, it's still obvious that he's not throwing himself wholeheartedly into his new role, still obvious that Subaru cares about Kamui, even if he did say "there is nothing more that I want to do." Fuuma even comments on it towards the end of volume 18: "You seem to be very interested in 'Kamui's' affairs. Not me, but the other one." And it's Subaru's comments in the final battle that nudge Kamui towards that Obviously Really Important Realization that we still haven't been made privy to (dammit, CLAMP).
SEISHIROU IS A POSSESSIVE DOUCHE WHO PURPOSEFULLY WRECKED HIM FOR ANYONE ELSE.
I agree with this completely. Even so, though, the way I see K/S... it's not about changing Subaru's feelings for Seishirou, or getting him to abandon them. It's about learning to cope with loss and grief and very slowly, very gradually, accepting it -- the same way Subaru did with Hokuto all those years ago. Subaru will never stop loving Seishirou, and CLAMP has made it clear that Kamui won't try to stop him in that. But despite Seishirou being the elephant in the room, the two of them still care about each other, and their actions in canon reflect that. Whether that caring is strictly friendly or, just possibly, has even a tiny chance of growing into something more... well, hey, exploring that's part of the fun of fandom, you know? :D
...though I wish there were more people in the fandom who were into the exploring aspect of things. Come on, there've gotta be more folks around who've pondered S/S/K -- it'd be so much fun to play with~
