Casey was too busy talking to DC to be much help.

Do I detect a hint of jealousy? Please, I talk to you every day. If not in person, but heck.

And by now you should know that I agree with you in nearly every respect when it comes to characterizations. I'd add that in Wufei's case, following the suicide discussion, as the warrior of the group I'm sure he would consider suicide as the coward's way out, although I doubt he would be opposed to dying honorably in battle if he couldn't help it.

With Duo I definitely agree with you, since watching the series I never found any real indication that he wanted to die -- rather several indications that he was afraid of dying, but, as commented, if he didn't have a choice he'd make damn sure he took everyone within a hundred-mile radius with him. I'd be more concerned about him becoming a serial killer, actually... yanno, the whole god-of-death thing, not denying the boy has some issues... anyway, what you have to look at is that Duo isn't a soldier, he's a civillian, and thus his thought processes when it comes to battle and whether or not it's necessary to die are going to be decidedly different than Heero or Trowa, since they're both trained soldiers and view their own deaths as an acceptable loss. Duo fights to win, and that may be what ultimately makes him the best pilot among the five.

Woo, look at me getting all philosophical. Wow.

I'm always amazed that anyone would call someone like Quatre "q-tip." That's kinda like looking down the barrel of an AR-15 and saying, "oh, how adorable!"

ROTFL. I think I've made the statement before, but anyone who thinks that Quatre is sweet and innocent has apparently not only forgotten that whole Zero episode, but also the fact that although Quatre gives the enemy the opportunity to surrender, he still kills them just as efficiently when they refuse. I'd liken the misinterpretation to that of Kurama in the YYH fandom -- both may give off the impression of sweetness and light, but they're both intelligent and extremely ruthless and would probably kill off a large population of fangirls if they knew what's been done to them in fanfics.

Btw, CP says hello and wants to know when everyone's coming back to visit again.
