Ok, watched the first eight eps of Evangelion yesterday and beacuse of such, am comming to understand more my attraction (as characters… mostly) to the “ice bitches”. My best example is obviously Lulu from FFX and where I got the term from (Blizzaga for the win). Rei at this point in the series is a decent example (and beacuse I only know her from this part, it serves as a testing ground). My issues with Pace are also a symptom of this, she’s too flirty and ditzy (as ditzy as an Agent can be) for my liking, it’s sort of fan service at the expensive of the character .

Now of course, to develop as characters, they mostly “thaw out” and get googly-eyed for one of the secondary characters (main characters don’t get the girl half the time it seems, she’s too good, “Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!” material :P) and the badassness suffers, (again, Lulu in FFX-2 is still cool and retains some badass, but she basically sucks). I guess I like them in games/anime beacuse they seem really hard to pull off. They either get killed off, knocked up, or just fade into suck (Atris, and to a lesser extent Bastilla in the KotORs). Rei’s (and everyone to whatever his face is really…) sorta, “whine more noob” (to quote Sileas), so she’s cool like that. Still a bitch, but cool. The ice bitch. Now of course, ice bitches in real life are normally pains in the asses, unless they reach ultra-cool levels (to make up for said bitchyness).

My favorite person who needs to get her ass in-game for once is a good f’ing example :P…

Then agian, I might just be kinky like that…
