Anime-opener dream fragment - Tatsu no Kanshin & others
Re: eng->chn chn->eng

G: MWAHAHAHA! MY HEINOUS PLOTS PROCEED!
... wait, this delayed Incarna? CURSES! Hoist on my own petard!
;?)
Quote:
But...the full name? Lujiaolong An Liu? It's...odd. If you take it as a title, rather than a name...a full-blown formal thing, it works. For a name, tho, it's a bit of a mouthful.

Family names are always, without fail, just one word, one syllable. It's NOT like Japanese.
Lujiaolong was supposed to be a title, actually, because it's his dragon clan. A seperate subfamily name would probably be a good idea, all told, which would adhere to the standard rules... "Long An Liu, of Lujiaolong", perhaps?
Quote:
I'd been thinking that part of the fun with her would be that, when she's in uniform and playing nice, there's -nothing- to give away that she's not just J. Random Schoolgirl. Which means normal skin tone and black hair. And I didn't want to suggest the braid just because I happen to really like that style (for good reasons, since I basically wear it myself) and am... predisposed to include it -everywhere-. Which, of course, means that yes, I approve.
Well, a deep (bottle) tan and bleach blode hair is apparently in for the fashionable crowd in japan - that's the basic ko-gal look, backed up by specialist knowledge in fashion and dating. Tsuchi I could see getting an honest deep tan as a two pronged thing - partly to mock those who get their tan form a bottle, and partly to make some small concession to looking like the currently-in model of what's attractive, so when she's standing in front of her mirror late at night she can assure herself that yeah, she's teh smexxy. Thoguh not in those words, most likely. I can do the black hair, but still think she should get, say, violet highlights instead of plain white? And obviously the described outfit isn't schoolwear.
Quote:
Actually, the one I'd been seeing the shocking hair color on would be Keiu, who I'd put as your classic ultra-petite (although it might be kinda shocking-fun to make her a bit zaftig, or tall and powerful like Sakaki), with hair colored the same shade as her feathers (she -is- a tropical type, -right-?) and falling a little past her shoulders... That length because I don't think I've ever seen an anime character with just middling-long hair. Short, yes - Kanna, Ami, Sumire. Long, yes - Sakura, Makoto, Michiru. Very long, yes - Minako, Rei, another Sakura. Ultra long, even, yes - Usagi and Setsuna. But never to just between the shoulder blades, which I've seen a -lot- in real life.
... Are you sure you haven't been looking into my brain? Because Keiu has been peeking out of the reference stacks in my mind with her shoulder-length bright green hair, eeping and pulling back since I fist noticed her role in the cast. And yes, she's a Plumed dragon, with intermediate healing and attack, and strong utility and defense spells, two of her favorites being "catalogue and search" (for use in book shops or libraries) and "notice-me-not." As for her size, Plumed dragons are the smallest, right? So having her human suit be particularly small also makes sense.
Red hairband, round glasses, brown eyes with just a hint of purple, anime-small bust - meaning she looks like a real teenager in that department - wears subdued, somewhat shapeless clothes when not in uniform. Can kick anyone's ass at any arcade or console video game you'd care to name, but no one really notices her hanging out there, any more than they do in school. This will be a matter of some consternation when Tsuchi finally discovers who "KK" is, whose top score on the Virtua Fighter 6 machine keeps increasing just as she gets close to surpassing it herself.
