And I like how you've set up the Robin/Amon interaction here. I always thought that they were both pretty passive-agfressive with each other and you have a little hint of that here.
Thanks. I could write a fucking essay about Amon and the way he deals with relationships by not dealing with them. Breaking up with Touko? Done on the fucking phone, instead of, you know, face to face. He has Issues with his mother. Issues with his father, and doesn't talk to his brother hardly ever. And now he's living with a teenaged girl. Part of me is snickering badly.
Robin's a bit easier, aside from the whole Eve of Witches thing. She's awaking sexually (which, BTW, doesn't mean that she's going to be having sex or anything, she's just becoming aware of her sexual feelings) which is scary as hell, but also really normal. The trick it to make her not look like a prude, because I don't think she is at all, but still be slightly shocked by her emotions...
And of course, underneath all that is the underlying threat of what would happen should Robin lose control. Amon is a bit afriad of her powers (though not as much as he was, I think), and Robin has already been betrayed once by someone she trusted. Even though she forgave Juliano for it, that still has to be in the back of her mind.
And I am really starting to love Doujima, too. She's fun. She can be an airhead, but can turn it off as needs be.
