Description This will never happen in the series' fifth season, Slayers Evolution-R, because as a general rule fantasy and humor animes shy away from delving psychological character development like turkeys shy away from Sarah Palin (lol).

HOWEVER I think it SHOULD happen, because family estrangements and reconciliations are messy, complicated, mixed things. If you ever loved someone, it's not so simple to just shut them out and hate them, no matter what they did to you. It's somewhat amazing.

In an rpg with , Rezo (original blind tragic-figure world-healer Rezo, NOT any one of the numerous psychotically evil copies of him) is overjoyed making the assumption that Zelgadiss, his great grandson whom he turned into a chimera, has forgiven him. Zelgadiss hears Rezo make this happy remark out loud and blows a fuse, rushing over to confront him, doing so initially in blind fury, which deteriorates into confusion and tears. Rezo just takes the castigation because he knows he deserves it.

Mah poor pookies lol *hugs em both.*

Yes they're in robes, because in the rp scene they're camping after getting wet from an unwanted run-in with mazoku lord Deep Sea Dolphin.

And don't say Zelgadiss never cries because I SAW him do so TWICE so far in Evolution-R

Lovely job Amber I love Rezo's eyes, their showing so much emotion just by themselves. Well done

I love how Zel shows his emotional pain through his actions and how he stands and his facial expressions, and all we get from Rezo is the burning emotion in his eyes. He looks so sympathetic; as you said, like he knows he deserves it.

You say these are RPGs with your friend, but are they going to be turned into fics, too, because DAMN, there's some good ideas.

I'm sure working on it lol xD My friends are so clever that sometimes it's hard to keep up with all the amazing plots they inspire! But right now this plotline is something I'm hastily sketching out in a fic at fanfiction.net called Sight Through Spirit, if you ever want to glance at it. I have the same username there as here.

By the way, thank you SO MUCH for noticing that I tried to convey personality through body language. I really love it when someone picks up on one of my concerted efforts.

I'm a huge fan of your fanfiction, so I definitely will be checking that out immediately.

^^ And I'm glad I was able to catch your intentions. You really are quite an amazing artist and I'm rather jealous. My talents are with words, but the brush belongs in the hands of another. Ah well, to each their own, as it were. ^^

Ironically enough I write as often as I draw and often feel incredibly torn between the two modes of expression.

Thanks very much ^^

I have to admit I'm a total sucker for stuff like this. I find psychological character development, particularly father/son (or greatgrandfather/greatgrandson) stuff particularly interesting. My old Gargoyle fanfics are full of strained family relations between Acheron and his son (who hates him pretty intensely, actually)

I love how you've captured the emotion of both characters so beautifully.

I am SO WITH you on being a sucker for just such fictional relationships.

GARGOYLES omg. That was my favorite cartoon for years. PUCK! XD!

NBVega In reply to AmberPalette [2009-01-27 21:57:18 +0000 UTC]

I don't think any of my fics are up here, but I think if you search gargoyles fan fiction and Vega on google, you might get it. I think I put them up at gargoylesfanfiction.net

Been years, I can't recall exactly ^.^

And yeah, the gargoyles was an awesome, awesome show. Shame Disney canceled it.

Yeah that's Disney for you, not to be cynical.

I think Zel should forgive Rezo. Rezo was probably off his rocker when he did that because he was unable to cure his eyesight due to the piece of Ruby eyes in his eyes and driven half mad. But I know it might be a while til Zel does forgive him.

Also, I thought up an idea that causes Juniper to see Zel as a brother. They're on a ship (kinda like the one in episode 7 of Slayers season 4) and its hit by a bad storm. Juniper gets thrown overboard and pushed down by the waves, Zel uses the raywing, jumps in and saves her. when he does get her on deck, she's not breathing and he has to do CPR (he'd probably get flustered). Juniper wakes up and founds out Zel saved her, thus she sess him as her big brother.

Oh I agree with you 100%.

Also, that's such a sweet idea. Have you ever considered turning all your rp ideas into fanfiction? It might be really cool...

SakuraFlowers In reply to AmberPalette [2009-01-27 21:43:15 +0000 UTC]

I might do just that. She could also see him as a hero. Though I'm not sure how to write it. I'm sure it'll be a cute rp though. ^_^
