| HOME :: SPECULATION :: DREAM DATE | ||||||||||||||||
We've already established by now that our friend Setsuna Meioh is an incredibly cool and lovely lady, so you're probably thinking that she must be constantly plagued by handsome suitors and prospective lovers, right? Well, that's what you'd think, anyway... but it's not exactly the case. Unfortunately, Naoko didn't really dream up a guy for Setsuna, despite the fact that she's easily one of the kindest, loveliest, and most interesting characters. Some speculate that she has a thing for King Endymion, but even if that were true, he's already been tied, bagged, and tagged by Serenity! So, in order to fill the void, we get to have some fun and come up with our own soul mate for her! He can be from anime, real life, or you can just make him up, but no matter who he is, just say what you think!
Skeeter says: I'm with Serra on this one... I can just see Setsuna with Mulder, and David Duchovny is one of my worst celebrity crushes. He's also got an incredible dry-humoured wit, and the kind of probing, persistent mind that could really get through to Setsuna's deeper side. If I can't have my very own Mulder, then Setsuna needs to have one.
Skeeter says: Is he really 75? He doesn't seem that old to me, but the Trekkie in me never got around to looking up the official ages of the crewmembers. ^^; I definitely like the culturedness of Picard, though, and I think that fits nicely with Setsuna-san. :D
Peter says: "Doctor Who. Who else could really deal with the whole guardian of time thing? Okay, so he's hyper-allergic to aspirin--but he is a Time Lord, which might concievably make her job easier, and is extremely moral in most of his incarnations and he is sufficiently long lived to really get to know her even if he his at least partially alien. And, one the neat things about timelords is their utter immunity to time stopping effects (some third doctor episodes). He also has a great sense of humour in all his incarnations, even if it is somewhat eccentric seeming to patheticly short-lived earthlings.And every version comes with a cool british accent and total determination to the cause of justice. Hard to beat, I think. Of course, he could also arrange significant duration vacations for her since he can return her to the exact moment she leaves on vacation using his really cool car-er tele- er TARDIS. See? And they'd certainly have plenty to talk about if (as I'm given to understand) physics is her favorite subject." Skeeter says: Well, who am I to argue with your choice of one of the great cult sci-fi icons? :D Doctor Who is a *fun* show... although the multiple incarnations thing would have to get confusing, even for somebody like Setsuna. But British accents are *always* a plus!
Skeeter says: Hotohori-sama! I haven't seen a huge amount of Fushigi Yuugi (about 1/4 of the way through) but Hotohori quickly became one of my favourite characters. Maybe it's because he's voiced by Koyasu Takehito? ;p Hotohori is a very cool character, and I think he does have a certain sageness about him that fits nicely with Setsuna.
Chibi-Astra says: "I think Setsuna and Souichi Tomoe would be a good couple. Why? He's actually good looking when he's not wearing those creepy glasses and laughing madly. Setsuna loves kids and she's close to Hotaru. Hotaru needs an understanding mother when Tomoe's in his lab. And Setsuna would be a teriffic mother to her! They both look cool in labcoats." Skeeter says: A good pick, in my opinion. I'm a pretty big fan of Souichi myself, and he's quite the cutie in non-evil mode. In fact, he's a pretty ideal father and compantion in general, after he's been purged of that evil force-type stuff. A+!
Skeeter says: Interesting choice! I don't watch a lot of Dragonball myself, but he sounds like a likely candidate, and his time-traveling is likely to give him the kind of experience with the world that Setsuna would look for in a man.
Sailorstarcrusher says: "I know this is going to sound like I am the most insane person on the face of the planet (well, I am, but that's not the point) but I did a crazy fanfic about Setsuna paired with this guy it dawned on me as I developed the relationship how cute they could be together. Granted I know, well, not alot about this guy but he seems like he would treat Setsuna right. Okay, here's the name, brace yourself - Tiger's Eye. Yes, I'm nuts but they'd be so sweet. I know the Amazons are baddies but I can really see any of them treating someone that they really love like a prized possesion - especially Fish-eye. Tiger and Setsuna could have some real potential under the right circustances. At least I think so." Skeeter says: I have to admit, my favor amongst the Amazon Trio has to go to Fisheye and his crazy cross-dressing adventures, but when I remember Tiger's "I'm so sick and helpless" act when he tried to charm Usagi's mother... well, he's certainly got a method for getting what he wants!
Skeeter says: Our first venture into the video game multiverse! :D Cloud's a very popular character, at least out of those from the Final Fantasy series, and he's got that all-too-necessary anti-gravity hair that seems to occur in anime regularly. It'd be a fun pairing to watch!
SailorPluto316 says: "I think that Setsuna should be hooked up with Zechs Merquis/Milliard Peacecraft from Gundam Wing because both of them are mysterious and you can't predict any of their next moves. He is exceptionally cute and they would be a cute couple together!" Skeeter says: OH lordy. I am *such* the fan of Gundam Wing (mostly for its yaoi potential, admittedly ::rotfl::) and Zechs is one of my favourite characters. But for now, I think I'll just leave off with a favourite phrase from my darling yaoi soul sistas: "Zechs rhymes with sex!"
Skeeter says: You've hit upon another one of my favourite characters. I always thought that Miki-kun was the sweetest guy, although he'd probably be very shy about making the first move on Setsuna. He certainly has the intelligence and talent to make up for his youth and naivete, however, so this could go places!
Thea says: "While I like the Mulder idea because I tend to associate Setsuna and Scully for some reason, I have a better suggestion! *beams* Chichiri from Fushigi Yuugi. He's the oldest and most mature of the Seven Suzaku Seishi, a man whose outward personality is frequently humorous, but who has a painful past and is very intelligent and inwardly serious. He's the only one of the seven who is actually a mage (they all have supernatural powers, but the rest are more limited and less trained in theirs). He lives in another world, of course, but there's some contact between the two. ^_^" Skeeter says: Man, you Fushigi Yuugi fans have a real scent for my faves, don't you? Chichiri also ranks right up there on my list (along with Nuriko and the aformentioned Hotohori) and I think his goofy outward personality would be just the thing to keep things lighthearted and cheerful between him and Setsuna.
Skeeter says: Ah, the gender-bender antics of the Ranma series! I haven't seen much of it myself, but he certainly looks like a tough customer in his pictures. He looks like somebody you'd want on your side when trying to defeat evil and keep the world in order, so maybe there's hope for this match. And what's this "curse" thing anyway? Well, if anyone could understand it, Setsuna could.
Skeeter says: Well, judging from the images I found while searching the web, Shuten seems like a pretty intense guy, and pretty powerful too. Power is certainly attractive to some women, so that might help his case with Setsuna. And I certainly won't argue the uniqueness of Setsuna... I think she'd want an equally unique person to be her life partner. It's looking good from where I'm sitting!
If you've got your own two cents to throw in, whether it be about someone you've thought up, or someone who has already been suggested, then please feel free to send us your thoughts. Feel free to include a (small-to-moderately-sized) image of your suggestion, and PLEASE try to say something besides "he's really cute." Think of what kind of person the guy is on the inside! All good comments will be posted here with credit and linkage. |
