Meme Wagon

[kaitou]

I have been feeling like getting in on a good meme lately, but they seem to be a little thin on the ground and thin in the air. But today I saw a wagon that both soranokumo and thorne_scratch have jumped on, so hey, I'm game!

Tell me a character, I'll tell you a couple things from my personal canon about them.*

In other news last night I watched the first Rhythm and Police movie over again. So Happy! Aoshima, Muroi and Sumire make me so happy. Aoshima and Muroi because they're my OTP, and Sumire because I want to be her when I grow up. I wish that it were a more popular dorama among the geeks, because it is such love. I wish that there was some way to remake it in America ala The Office and Ugly Betty. I think at least part of the appeal of Phoenix Wright for me is that...except for the funny clothes and teenage sidekicks...it could be a spinoff of the show. flidgetjerome, can't you just see Mike Meekins working at the Wangan station??

I should stop babbling and get back to work. I have no motivation today whatsoever.


*Please don't ask about FFVII characters because my personal canon consists only of the words 'Yes' and 'Ok.'

Hmm. Looking at your interests-- Sirius Black! Or, if you'd rather another fandom, Tenjou Utena.

I thought about doing the dead RPF and asking about William Shakespear, but I thought you'd find that creepy. Heh.

Although, you know with Shakespeare, there are so many opinions that it's really easy to have your own 'canon' for him. Personally I really like the idea of the Shakespeare family being secret Catholics, and him meeting up at one point with Father John Gerard. But I think he ultimately wasn't sure what to think...which I can see a lot in Hamlet.

As for Sirius Black, it is my deep dark secret that I really think he's kind of a prick. Despite being locked up for years and years in Azkaban, I don't think he really grew all that much as a person from the dangerous-joke playing kid he was. (Maybe it was because he spent the whole time as a dog, I don't know) And I wasn't all that crushed that he died.
Don't kill me!

How about Myth/Mute/the prince from Princess Tutu?

(I am having the hardest time remembering how they actually romanized his name and am just going by how I remember Ahiru saying it in my head. My apologies!)

Ooh, tough one. And you know, I can't for the life of me remember the romanization for his name, but I think even in the dub he was 'Myuto' (the dub is really good, btw, I like it as much as I like the original). But you know, I think I liked Myuto the most when he was evil, and I wonder that he didn't either. Maybe that's why he ended up with a princess that also had her own dark side. By the end they can be 'good' without being saccharine about it.

Having had this conversation about the good ole days I was tempted to say Clow but I'd also like to see your theories on a lot of other people.

Arsene Lupin, I think. You're the one who got me into that fandom.

Man, you don't go for an easy one, do you?

Hm. I don't know that I really have much of a personal canon for the original Lupin. I think he's mostly arrogance and pride all wrapped together in a delicious package. If he want's to feel anything else, well, all he has to do is put on a new disguise and be someone else for a day.
