You could try a character who's actually got a boyfriend--a secret she's trying to hide from the other students and staf at IS Academy--which is why she's not after Ichika...just a suggestion

No, I mean... already established minor character...



Candidates: Nohonhon, Kanalin, and Kishisato.

But yeah, my current instinct point at Nohonhon, which will be very hilarious as result due to their contrast nature. On the other hand, Nohonhon is a Chekhov's Gunman in later volume...

[wavehawk]

Kanalin, definitely.

Isn't Nonohon already established to be roomign with her sister or something?

Hmm, thanks for the info! I guess I'll check the later novels again.

[wavehawk]

Kanalin's perfect, seeing that she has quite a few speaking lines in the anime and you can actually get a handle on her character from what's been shown so far. Kishisato is cute but doesn't really have a fleshed-out character...

...and let's face it. Maoka would probably be stressed out dealing with Nonohon...Kanalin would be a lot better as a foil to Madoka at this point

Spoiler for Inami:

"Umm, Futtsu-san… If you do not mind me asking, do you have information about a particular blue IS that has a sniper rifle as one of its weapons?" He hesitantly asks, slightly blushing as he recalls the face of the said IS' pilot.

"Ki-Kiss! Is this for real! I'm about to share my first kiss with Tsurugi-chan! My childhood friend!"

(Yeah, Just thinking about a beautiful girl made him blush, and then....well, of course, the kiss)

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry! Here, let me help you get back on your- Ackh!"

"I'm sorry… I didn't mean to be rude of anything, I was just-"

(Apologizes quickly, which means he's polite and nice)

"Hey now, that's crossing the line! I apologized, didn't I?"

(Honest and straightforward, if he's angry, he'll protest)

As I said, while he's not wimpy, he's still innocent and overall nice guy.

Anyway, can you make some retcon on Cecilia's reaction? By this point, Cecilia should already undergo some development.

And even though the insult is not directed to him, Ichika was there, and Ichika hates when a girl looking down/ insulted guys without clear reason (V3 shopping scene is one example).

(Though in my fanfic, I made it Ichika's berserk button)



IT'S NOT CLICHE! IT'S TROPERIFFIC!!



As for throwing knife, sounds good, but only used as emergency weapon, I mean... IT'S A THROWING KNIFE! Which mean all-or-nothing.

(The same case with my non-canon Koyuki Type-1, although rather than knife, it's a dagger/ wakizashi)



Bonus chapter? Madoka? Why not! Considering Madoka is THE LEAST pervert of all girls (at this point, mind you...) it tend to be boring though

Unless you use canon version of Madoka, which is another story...

Karons' reaction would be...

Karon: (Cheerful) "Irish-kun! "
Irish: (monotone) "What?"
Karon: (Happy) "They write a fanfic of us! And all of them is so~ romantic!"
Irish: (Flat response) "Who writes this crap?"

---------------------------------

Anyway, I need a suggestion about Madoka's roommate (at this point anyway... she'll share a room with Laura after 'befriending' her later).

I was planning to use your version of Madoka...but are you saying I should use canon Madoka?....*prays for Ichika*

Karon: Hehehe
Irish: What's so funny?
Karon: Oh...nothing!hehehehe. I'm just posting something.
Irish:Somethings up.

*Irish walks into class*

Class: YURIKO-CHAN!
Irish: What the-!
Erika: Karon-chan uploaded a picture of you dressed in our uniform, it's very popular.
Irish: KARON!

EDIT: @Zero- After the fight with Rin how experienced is Ichika at piloting already? Can you or anybody give an accurate assessment.

Twin!Madoka: "Ichika-nii is MINE! IChika-nii is MINE and MINE ALONE!!!"

Canon!Madoka: "Ichika is ME"

Anyway, after fight with Rin, Ichika still as dumb as ever, until Charles gave him some pointer of course....

That's good then, I had Irish jump from the car onto Byakushiki's back to use the jammer knife on Ichika's "Wings" and Irish wouldn't be able to pull that off if Ichika was already pretty good. (Though I'm afraid this will give Irish the stu flag)

Maybe I can have Canon!Madoka show up in Twin!Madoka's daydream. The fight that ensues will be full of lolz.

Stu Flag? THISis the very reason everyone UPGRADED Ichika in their fic (me included), Ichika is too weak and that made his position in the fandom worse than planned.

(As you know, a Harem hero must be at the very least as good as his harem, or else fans will ridicule him or even replace him with Stu character outright)

Since it's a stealth-killing move, it'll be worse if Canon!Ichika can react... maybe you can consider the terrain as well (while I.S. can look 360 degrees, it's still awkward for the pilot to comprehend looking 'behind').

*Activate Geass*

I, for one, command you to write that!

Ichika was chasing after the van Irish was riding in, he diverted almost all of his shield power to the wings and sensors so he wouldn't lose them. Irish jumped from the back of the van and stabbed through his shield because it was dangerously low to begin with. Ichika wasn't expecting somebody to be crazy enough to jump from a moving vehicle towards him with a knife so he probably wouldn't be able to react.

Sound okay with you?

BTW- Canon!Madoka will make an appearance master. *entranced by Geass*

[MeisterBabylon]

"This match was over before it started!" Cecilia declared, hefting the sniper cannon to her shoulder. "I sorry, my dear Colonist, the Cup is mine!"

Karon grinned as she flipped the buster rifle from under her arm and locked it into firing position.

"I'll show you that a superior unit has its limits when it comes up against a superior pilot!"

"This will be a match to remember... FIGHT!"

------

I think I'll find some place to use this some day... As well as steal the rest of Aznable's lines.

And so Karon adds more win photos to the class page.

@Zero: Sent you a LONG PM. xD

[Eratas123]

@ Blitz- I know I'm asking a lot but can you also proof read my other fic? I made a mistake and it was pretty bad when I posted it. (I accidentally wrote that TABANE was Ichika's older sister)

Which fic is that?

[Eratas123]

"Daydreams of Maidens in Love" It's a challenge to see if I can improve writing romance (Not working so far)

- Two things;
1.) You have to know how a girl thinks and feels if you're going to write from a girl's perspective
2.) You really have to look into GOOD romance books or stories to see how they're structured and flow.

It's still an experimental fic so I hope to improve as I go on, I admit that I suck at writing romance so I'm using this fic to try and improve.

*Write that into my own notes*

@Eratas
Spend your time and read/ watch Kimi ni Todoke... I guarantee the quality of characters and plot.

(on a side note, you might want to call a dentist and prepare for insulin injection)

Grim dark is usually where I'm at, watching something sweet is what I do only when I have free time. (Watched infinite stratos hoping they'd address the society imbalance and possible dark plots, was disappointed to say the least)

Haha, poor soul.

Well, I was lucky that I was relatively indiscriminate for any form of Fiction (except for long running, repetitive shounen manga). Very often I alternate between GRIMDARK Seinen, FABULOUS Shonen comedy, and DIABETIC Shoujo. That'll help expanding your views.
