and one on shore

Tomorrow I am planning to bury myself in the (very very air-conditioned) library and revise like mad, but today it is too hot to think about medicine, so I am going to lie around and watch Princess Tutu and drink lychee juice and occasionally poke at my answers to the things-I-know fic meme and try to pretend that I am in the Arctic.

I forgot to buy lemonade, so my grand plan to spend tonight drinking port & lemonade cocktails and poking my fic has been threatened. We'll see if the heat dies down to the extent that I can bear the thought of leaving my room.

So far I have not developed many thoughts past:

me: wow. sadness, frustration and loneliness. I think the secret plan here is for mute to KILL HIMSELF.
Ji: I KNOW
me: also going by the people his soul infuses, he is an enormous girl
Ji: um, that is also very true

BUT I TOO WISH FOR CLEVER INTO THE WOODS ICONS. Will it be spoilery if I go look at your post and pick some?

HAHA you are not wrong.

(However, I also have to say, Mytho being an enormous girl only encourages the OT3 and OT4ness of the series in general!)

Ummm. Some of the later posts might be spoilery but I am fairly sure the first one I did is safe! It is here.

Is Myth/Mytho the accepted form? Are the subtitles lying? Because I thought Mute was a clever swan reference.

I thought it was Mute too when I first saw/heard it, but no, officially it is Mytho. (As in story! It makes sense, but so does Mute.)

So far I find Rue fascinating, would pay to see the Secret Silent Love Of Mytho and Rei, and would also like to pull Ahiru aside and gently point out that maybe she could put aside her OMG THE PRINCE NEEDS HIS HEART SO HE CAN LOVE ME AGAIN just long enough to consider the fact that maybe undoing something that was done to seal in a mofo raven monster thing is not an entirely fantastic idea.

I love Rue a whole lot - the relationship between her and Ahiru is one of my favorite parts of the show. (Passing the Bechdel test with flying colors, yay!)

Um, yes, this is . . . not an invalid point. *cheerful* I also love Ahiru but sometimes she is slightly slow to pick up on these things.

I kept waiting for someone to address it properly but they never do, so I figured it must be a plot point. Though I think it would help Rue and Fakia's case if they bothered to point out to Ahiru that they have motivations for stopping her beyond HE MUST BE OUR PASSIVE LOVEBITCH FOREVER!!

[personal profile] skygiants 2009-02-08 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
Yes but that would require them to have communication skills! Which . . . neither Rue or Fakir actually possess . . . especially Fakir, BIGGEST DRAMA QUEEN IN THE SCHOOL. (I love him also - which may perhaps be a theme with Tutu characters - but oh he is ridiculous.)

Hahah I just reached the episode where the subtitlists carefully rename everyone with the correct spelling.

Looks like I am picking up an anime OT4 as a nice average of my current OT3 (Naruto) and OT5 (Ouran).

Oh yes, I love how careful they are to inform everyone that they are doing that! They try very hard. *pats them*

IT IS SO OT4. The angles pretty much all fit! (And that is . . . episode 6, right? Sleeping Beauty!)

EXACTLY. AND NONE OF THEM SHOULD BE SAD!

(Also it helps that they totally ship each other as well. Ahiru is the biggest Rue/Mytho shipper ever!)
