You--you dislike talking? Oh, that, that is a horrible tragedy. :( I am sorry to hear it. Although the whole need-to-pee dilemma is an understandable one. I get reclusive moods occasionally, but usually I'm out prancing around like a dork ready to be mocked at any given moment. 'Cause otherwise I would get bored.
Character depth is something I used to hunt down in Naruto like the dickens, but I feared and figured I was reading too much into it, considering what I've assessed it to be overall in Kishimoto's intentions. Unless a series is more...subtle, I generally write fic like mad for it if I really like it that's all depthy (yes, depthy, not 'deep') 'til I realize that, hey, I feel like I'm stating the obvious. XD May not be so, but if I have interpretations in which I hold Confidence I start taking them as fact. If that makes aaaany sense.
I always supposed Orochimaru inspired loyalty because of his sheer force of character: his intensity, his conviction, his unshakeable confidence. Yes, he's doing it Evil Bastard Style, but he knows what he wants and he goes for it without displaying a shadow of doubt. That inspires people & fascinates them, right? True, he has the intuition to go after the really fucked up kids, who're more likely to latch onto him, but I think that's the reason why. You've got to admit that Strong Personalities have appeal. People who refine and take pride in and are sure of their own abilities, etc. etc.?
...I've always thought how absolute Orochimaru is would maybe be something to attract Kabuto's respect, which is given to few (if any). Kabuto's more of a shapeshifter than Orochimaru ever has been or will be, figuratively speaking.
I'm not making fun of you, dork. ♥ I get what you mean about putting something in to make it convincing. There's usually room for that unless it's something really viiiiile. And even then...XD
Thanks! And, damned if I know. I never write porn so I haven't noted the difference? Like I said, rarely read it or even anything centered around Le Sex; yours was an exception 'cause I'd exhausted the rest of your DN fic and I was all "Must read more pls. :/" And lo, I was not disappointed.
...Narudemption. *adds to vocabulary* Precisely. Neji is now a Decent Human Being. I agree. I guess he just...never caught my interest. Except his hair. He has very pretty hair. Someone's been hitting the Herbal Essences.
