With chapter 15 (after the upcoming Interregnum 5) Family Matters is going into the final hot phase, collecting and -hopefully- tieing all the lose story threats and building starting platforms for sequels and sidefics.
I'm admittedly curious what my readers think about the cast of original characters Family Matters acquired so far. Please let me know. :)

Date: 2008-03-16 22:15 (UTC)From:Which original character (OC) currently in Family Matters is most interesting? Feel free to explain in comments.
Hm... this is a toss up between Yue and Omi, though I suppose I lean more toward Omi at this point, since we've had more meaningful dialogue with him. I definitely want to learn more about him.
Which OC do you find particularly annoying and why? Please use comments for longer explanations.
I find Hamamatsu kind of annoying, and mainly just because he seems like a sheep. However I suppose he's a product of his upbringing, so he can be excused.
I was going to add Romiro to that as well, but "annoying" isn't really the right word for him. After he started being more involved in the fic, my thoughts were along the lines of: "Dammit, Seishirou and Subaru have to deal with all of this other crap, and now they have to be worried about a power hungry member of the Sakurazuka clan?!" Even with that though, he's not annoying. At least with him his motives seem obvious, so even if he is supposed to be a bad guy, he's good at it lol.

Right now, it's a "just for the readers...", but if things continue like this, I might not wait until I get tossed out by the forces behind the "goatse.ks"-tag.
On to the happy things:
One vote for Omi. Counted. :)
Hamamatsu is muscle, not necessary brain. Every bigger house got to have some. ;) I'm a little surprised that he stirs up that much annoyance, since he's clearly a third rank character, meaning well, but mostly obeying orders. At least, he's got a small role. So I hope he can be easily ignored.
Romiro is actually a major player with an important role - at least until chapter 15. I'm glad he didn't receive a negative hit yet. :)
