Writer's Block: Bombshell alert!
I'd tend to favor whatever the wronged party wants, though I'd lean towards a split-up; certainly in the most recent case (Sandra Bullock and Jesse James) I kinda think she should dump his ass, as from all accounts she is super-nice and is adorable. But if she wants to stick it out, good for her...though if I were her, I would not take kindly to having my post-Oscar mellow harshed by infidelity rising to the surface, and would kick his ass to the curb. But I generally feel that Sandra Bullock is the kind of person you don't cheat on (ditto with, say, Kate Winslet - not that I think she's splitting with Sam Mendes because there was cheating, but similarly she's the kind of star whom pretty much everyone likes, and if you cheat on her you'll piss off a lot of people).
Anyway, I am finally getting around to doing the three fandoms meme
nemissa gave me:
MEGAMI TENSEI
(Note that this will of necessity be Persona-heavy, since it is a) my favorite of the Megaten serieseses, and b) the only ones that I've actually played all of.)
1. The first character I first fell in love with: Probably Jun, who I was not expecting to be as awesome as he turned out to be when I finally got to play Innocent Sin (and it doesn't hurt that he got to be the Gay Option).
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Probably Ulala from Eternal Punishment? I liked her at first, but when it turned out that she had *SPOILER* to Maya, I was prepared to really dislike her. But I actually ended up feeling sympathetic to her and really liking her by the end. The same goes for Heat in Digital Devil Saga.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: A lot of people just luv the Velvet Room gang, but they generally leave me kinda cold. I look forward to Theodor in Persona 3 Portable though...perhaps he can change this trend?
4. The character I love that everyone else hates: A lot of people really seem to dislike Yosuke in Persona 4 for some reason. And to a lesser extent with Naoto. For the record, I love both, though I like Yosuke more.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: Ehh, not sure I've really fallen out of love with any Megaten characters? I guess I don't think Baofu is as awesome as I thought he was the first time I played EP...
6. The character I would shag anytime: BROSUKE
7. The character I'd want to be like: Katsuya from EP.
8. The character I'd slap: Most of the cast of Persona 3...not that I don't like them, but most of them could use a good slap. (Mitsuru and Aki-tan excepted, obv.)
9. A pairing that I love: Well, Tatsuya/Jun from IS is my original ship, and I will always love it, but currently my favorite Megaten ships are MC/Yosuke, MC/Yukiko and Kanji/Naoto from P4.
10. A pairing that I despise: Tatsuya/Maya just feels SO WRONG after having played IS
11. Favorite character: Hmmmm...I'll say Jun
12. My five favorite characters: Jun (P2), Teddie (P4), Kanji (P4), Yosuke (P4), Maya (P2)
13. My five least favorite characters: Uhhhhhh Chiaki and Isamu from SMT3? (Bitches be crazy, yo.)
14. Which character I am most like: A cross between Maya and Jun from P2.
15. My deep, dark fandom secret: ...I have yet to finish P3 despite owning it in 2 different versions (clearly if I buy it again as P3P I will have no choice but to finish).
SUIKODEN
1. The first character I first fell in love with: The main character (Riou) of S2...I really like his character design and the tonfas were super-original at the time.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: I'm gonna go with Nemi and say Georg after S5...alternately Viktor post-S2.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Flik? I mostly just found him annoying, and was kind of rooting for Nina to catch him and make his life miserable in S2.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Snowe from S4.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: No one that I can think of.
6. The character I would shag anytime: Kyle from S5, I guess? So many options in this series...
7. The character I'd want to be like: Riou, just because his powers are cool (and he can potentially end up with both the Bright Shield and Black Sword rune, which is totally awesome).
8. The character I'd slap: Lulu (S3)...fortunately, he gets his.
9. A pairing that I love: .........MC/Lymsleia in S5 (don't look at me like that, sob). Also S4's Aldo/Ted (stalkerluv 4ever).
10. A pairing that I despise: idk...Sheena/Apple maybe?
11. Favorite character: The main characters of either S2 or S5, just because of their super-cool character designs.
12. My five favorite characters: Riou (S2), Frey (S5), Kika (S4/Tactics), Aldo (S4), Jale (Tierkreis)
13. My five least favorite characters: Jowy, most of the Silverbergs (Albert and Elenor are awesome though)
14. Which character I am most like: Probably the creepy scholar from S3 D:
15. My deep, dark fandom secret: I still have yet to beat S5 D:
JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE
1. The first character I first fell in love with: Obviously my name-twin, Joseph Joestar.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Polnareff...he seemed like stupid comic relief, and he IS but he's more than that too (...mostly). Also DIO-SAMA
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Uhhh...Koichi? Not that I don't like the little dude, I just think the most interesting thing about him is his relationship with Yukako.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Is there anyone that everyone hates? I'll say Lisa Lisa because I'm pretty sure I find her more awesome than the general fandom.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer: None.
6. The character I would shag anytime:

7. The character I'd want to be like: Joseph, obviously, though I wouldn't mind Jotaro's or Jolyne's badassness or Giorno's manipulative bastardness.
8. The character I'd slap: Polnareff, because as awesome as he is he does need one from time to time.
9. A pairing that I love: KOICHI/YUKAKO OTP
10. A pairing that I despise: None, sadly. (Even Jotaro/Jolyne is fair game, sob)
11. Favorite character: Again, Joseph.
12. My five favorite characters: 1. Joseph 2. Caesar 3. The Aztec vampire man-train 4. Yukako 5. Gyro
13. My five least favorite characters: Errr, I love everyone (aside from random bad guys of the episode)
14. Which character I am most like: I'd like to think Joseph, but probably Josuke? (With marginally better hair.)
15. My deep, dark fandom secret: I still need to finish parts 5, 6 and SBR (you can see a trend with my fandom secrets, orz)

DOES ANYONE NOT LOVE LISALISA we just get too little of her, and then when she's about to kick ass one of the man-train kind of shanks her from behind and Joseph gets to save the day, no? THEM'S THE BREAKS.
... I like to imagine she's still alive and young-looking and gorgeous, but it's like uh, Araki is insufficiently interested in her and doesn't care, like with Shizuka. >.>;;
(Why can't Jolyne have known her great-great-grandmother, SUCH A TRAGEDY)
no subject
I, too, have a terrible secret: I own IS and most of the localized MegaTen games, but I've only beaten Persona 3 (not FES), SMT3 and DDS1.
no subject
And yeah, I wish there had been more mentions of Lisalisa in later chapters. Having her meet Polnareff would have been hilarious.
