I don't think you need to go into Lacus Clyne's past because there is nothing special about it. She's simply the daughter of Siegel Clyne, and the fiancee of Athrun Zala. She wasn't raised by wolves, her past wasn't full of wars. she wasn't some genetic experiment, you learned about the pasts of Kira, Mu, Rau, Rey, Shinn, Durandal, Talia, and Meer because that was important to the story (or at least their character).

I was just saying that leaving those issues aside she at least does something, compared to some of the more awful characters of her type. Considering she's a main heroine however, it's a grave oversight that she doesn't have any of the above- but we all know it plays back into how she's a self-insert. Quote:
Either that, or there really wasn't anything in her past... edit: actually there at least has to be how she became a popstar, why she became who she is in Seed though... |

If I were to write an Episode Zero-like origin for her, here are some ideas I would put in:

There's nothing special about her relationship with Athrun. They were selected to be wed due to the genetic problems that forced into law pre-arranged marriages based on genetic viability. Nothing more, nothing less.

Personally, the only reason I'd care about her past is if it adds depth to her character and gives her a stronger personality with insight into what motivates her to go from popstar to rebel and political figurehead. Imo, all Lacus needs is more humanity. And don't say that's irrelevant for the plot, she's supposedly a main character not a plot device and as such should have depth. It's not really "relevant" that Murrue had a boyfriend who died either, yet it adds to the story. |

With Lacus, everything about her is explained in the story itself. From her meeting with Kira to her dad dying. And we are shown some of her past. For her example, we can see that her engagement to Athrun seems to be less about love and more about politics/genetics, which explains why they are readily separated when Kira and Cagalli enters the picture. |

I love it (Cause people always like to say "I love it" before the kill$hit^^) how people forget that Lacus was first introduced as a somewhat mentally challenged idiot-savant how talked to her ball-like robots...I remember when Athrun was first shown at her front door he was like "WTF? I'm really gonna marry this loon?" Now I know she turned into black SEEDMODE eyes Nacy Drew out-dueling Dullindal based on seeing red-scribblings on a notebook, and taking trips to non-existent shadow organizations named Terminal before she puppeteer'd Athrun yet again, but that girl was one coordinator cuckoo over the nest at first...

Personally I love dumb Lacus as there is some great humor in seeing her do things like dumbly wave to Kira. |

Lacus doesn't need more development. She's great as she is. She's a character that is hate by some but love by other. And her relationship with Kira will awawys be one of my fav one. We don't need another usual relationship with drama and all. The appeal in her relationship with Kira is that their bond is stronger than anything, their love is stronger than anything. Their bond will never be broken. They know that. This kind of relationship is really rare and that's why it's great. If you want your usual relationship, you have many other pairing like that in GS and GSD.
