Just watched the clip that apparently I'd miss on my initial download-- the kitchen scene!

With the Vegeta crack!

::hands over face snickering:: How funny was that? You'd probably have to be an anime fan of some sort to get a kick out of it, but boy did I. And the really pathetic part is that Andrew isn't like Vegeta at all-- Vegeta is much more like Spike or Anya.

He's like Spike because he is a character foil/shadow for the main character; because it was love that eventually drove him to choose to be good; because he had no choice in being bad initially; and because the hero let him live out of pity.

And he's like Anya because he had a brief remission in which he willfully chose to be bad & kill people again for the power it gave him, and then had to go back & choose willfully to be good.

Like them both because he was hindered from doing evil by being stranded on the planet with the guy who could beat the crap out of him if he started doing evil again--thus against his will. And because he eventually changed by years of exposure to humanity, which taught him mercy & compassion.

::giggle:: Not really like Andrew at all. And much cooler.

Awww...well...the latter half of the Buu Saga is crucial to Vegeta's final redemption so I can understand your hesitation. I would like to use your observations as a skeleton to get started and I would be honored if you would write an excerpt on behalf of that endearing rascal Wolfwood. Basically what I'm looking for is a mini essay, no more than two paragraphs outlining the character's, in this case Nicholas D. Wolfwood, journey to at attaining redemption (i.e., motivating factors, people, events, past experiences etc). Again, I truly appreciate your contribution to my silly 'lil project ^.^

that sounds cool. I could do that. When would you like it by? I'll need some time to think it over, and to fit it in with my other stuff.
