Poor Sousuke :( I'm sure he'll be fine, but its still not a nice image.
I agree that Kaname is probably just being treated royaly, Leonard seems the kind who thinks he can win someone over by being a smarmy git and giving her what he thinks she wants like nice clothes and and a comfortable bed but all she really wants is freedom and Sousuke :-D Its a bit like Beauty and the Beast in that respect, except two beauties.

Interesting. Though if Leonard is after Kaname's heart, he's going to make some kind of move sometime, it's not like he really expects Kaname to go up to him and declare her love even though that's probably what he dreams about. You would have thought with Leonard being a genius and prodigy would have known that his tact at things with Kaname would never work. Like he said, he likes tough resilient girls, kind of ironic.

Well, I've already considered Leonard's actions and how being a genius he can still do things that seem so stupid. The secret truth of his scheming revealed.

:p

Seriously, though. That's probably the clothes they left out for her. I doubt she would have actually CHOSEN to wear that, let alone while in enemy custody. So he's probably getting his kicks that way. But I doubt he's done much more than that.

I agree. In the original series, she seems to favor pin-stripe pajamas as her nightclothes of choice.
To quote my six-year-old the first time he saw Fumoffu - "Wow! A giant hamster with a machine gun! Super cool!"

The Red Sparrow perishes with the prejudice of the dark hunter, and eventually is avenged by the Steel Hound through blood and rage. The Blue Aviary and the Red Sparrow meet in Whispered spirits, and thus the curtains for the next act rises.

So true the red sparrow and your account will perish indeed after angering the omnipotent powers that be. Far away in the clouds of the eternal I weep since I must be strict when I hear the cries of the tormented souls lusting for bloodshed, no one hears your screams, your curtain might fall.

Tessa looked down, "I haven't been called Captain in 4 years," Wha..what do you want?"
He gave her a devious grin, "I'm here to make sure you keep your promise."

Ah, point taken. Leonard probably did do that, if it was Kaname's choice of clothes, they would probably have insignias of "Let Me Free", or "Leonard Is A Idiot And Should Be Strangled By His Coat". The strange thing is, is that Leonard is seemingly trying to make her all happy, but I'm sure he's not letting her out of wherever she is. And Kaname isn't a perfect candidate for being imprisoned against her will. She's already experienced it before.

Which is why it's strange to see her looking the way she did. Since it's Kaname, you'd expect her to be raising some hell or something. She looks completely beaten to me.

Well, we don't actually know that either. :?

ecs just in case: [ecs]She's been in captivity for months (I think it's months) so she probably ran out of steam some time ago. It would be strange for her to raise hell too, since she surrendered voluntarily and all that. [/ecs]

Yes, I know that. But it's still a contrast from how she normally acts.

Weltall Elite, I think you've interpreted my meaning horribly wrong, no offense meant. I mean like trying to make her content and grateful so that she'll somehow like him. That's pretty much what I meant. Sorry if it seemed like a connotation.
I think Kaname has probably did all she could in trying to get out, and now knows that all she can do is wait.

-->[ecs]That's true, but it's also a new type of situation, one that she hasn't been in before, so normal standards don't really apply I think. Furthermore, I don't really see Kaname as someone who would be unaffected by prolonged captivity (and that after having witnessed her own classmates being hurt because of her, and a wedge driven between her and Sousuke). Sure, she's one strong gal, but that's that and there's certainly a limit to it. [/ecs]<--

We could also chalk it up to Gatoh trying to become serious (or solicit a tear-jerker response from his audience). What's more, it could be artistic license on the part of the illustrator lol.

By the way, I wasn't trying to imply anything about what you do or do not know, so relax, relax.
:-D

All I said is that we don't know that. And we don't know this either. All we know is that she's sitting on a bed somewhere in a skimpy negligee crying. That's all we've seen of her since she's been kidnapped. Anything you, I or anyone else says is speculation. I only said that because the way you worded it sounded like you were stating a fact when we really don't have a clue how Leonard's been treating her.

You're misunderstanding me. I never said anything to the contrary of that.
