How come? Most of the fics for it are junk, but every rare once in a while something comes along which focuses on the emotional connection they made over the series- catacombs and then the raiders- rather than some stupid idea of sexual tension which badly imitates Tsundere/jerk romances. Like most pairings, but especially popular ones- it's usually crappy, but when it's good, it's good.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Yami Malik, mostly because everyone else seems to have a completely different conception of what Yami Malik is like from the actual canon.
I try very hard to forget what the fanon view of him is. Actually, I think I have forgotten... Huh, I have. Anyway, he mainly interests me because he's a split part of Malik's psyche. All those hatreds in him were once a part of Malik, after all.
13. My five least favorite characters: The anime filler characters with the exception of Rebecca and Vivian.
You like Vivian? How come? (I thought I was the only one who did! *shifty eyes* And it's not just because of her dresses, really!)
15. My deep, dark fandom secret: I hate that people are so unaware of the manga
My secret shame is that I've still read so little of the manga. I've read the first arc, none of the second, none of the third, and I've, um, skimmed the last arc. I would have actually read it, but the scans I've got are too small, and I can't do much more than look at the pictures with the kanji and furigana blurred as they are. I'm planning on collecting the bunkoban, though, so hopefully I can rectify the situation soon.
