My sense of humor is... Absurd Does nonsense make sense to you? Then absurd comedy might be your fish. Did you know that there is actually a word that means "saying something totally illogical"? It's called a "non-sequitur" and comedians use them to abruptly confuse or surprise you.Read more... What is your sense of humor? |

Yay for sense of absurd and Terry Gilliam Haha. I have a feeling the other kind of humour I get off on is dark, but absurd is indeed one of the thing I like
Your word is BUGGER. You are generally quite
restrained, but sometimes your anger or
frustration come to the surface and it all
comes out. Yet you somehow can't stop sounding
polite, despite it all.
Which Swear (Curse) Word Are You?

Oh, cool, I love that curse word. Bugger this, bugger him, bugger you, in the wise words of Sandor Clegane. Besides, it's so slashy ^^

Ask me my opinion on any character from any fandom, and I will say. If I do
not know the fandom, I will say what I think I know based on fannish
osmosis.
I remember doing this with ships before. Cool memes.

Date: 18 August 2005 05:59 pm (UTC)For me it's a character that's really defined by her death scene. Because her death is such an optimistic, life-affirming gesture, ironically. She doesn't give up. She wants her brother back and she wants even to give a chance to Seishirou to love him. "there's no such thing as someone who shouldn't love". And she says that to her killer. That's just freaking unbelievably cool.
It's the kind of bravery that shakes the whole world, you know.
But Hokuto is also such a girl. She's fun and she's lively, she's futile and she's full of contradiction. She's independant and modern but she wants to become a housewife, and she's totally crazy about her brother.
Subaru is Hokuto's most important person. I don't mean she's in love with him, but he's the person she's ready to die for, the person her whole life revolves around. I suppose Hokuto is a bit in love with Seishirou and Subaru as a couple. But I guess she wanted to get her own life, at some point, she just never had the time to. She's a difficult person to visualise with someone romantically, even Kakyou.
The miracle of Hokuto is that she was never bitter enough to envy Subaru. It would have been such an easy thing to do, be jealous of the special one, the one with all the powers and all the attention. But she's not, she's clever enough to realize how much Subaru suffers of his powers and she's loving enough to be willing to give up Subaru to Seishirou.
She's not without flaws still. She is a bit possessive, I think, with the way she dress up Subaru as she wants. And she's loud and sometimes clumsy about things.
She sacrificed too much, possibly, because of what she wanted of Subaru's happiness. That's the part she played in their tragedy. She wasn't reasonnable... but I can't honnestly disagree with her.
