Evening All

[pyrochan]

Hihi I'm Pyrochan-dolls from deviantart. Gundam Wing was one of the first anime's I discovered those many years ago, and was so obsessed I used to video it when it was on at like 3AM in order to see it every day XD

Character wise, I'd have to say Duo was my fav but depending on the scene or the fanfic that varys widely.

Ships... I do all ships except generation gaps, (like J x Heero or Rashid x Quatre or something equally disturbing). The writer makes the ship not my love of a particular pairing XD A Good writer makes me love their ship. A bad one insists they're right end of XD

I did some GW art once....

pyrochan-dolls.deviantart.com/art/character-sheet-135896667

Yes it's a "what if Duo was a girl" art, but it was cos I was so pissed off at ficwriters making duo a girl but not DuoGirl, just gothic/whiney/needy/irritating notDuoGirl that I went out and made a real if Duo were a girl... Duo is definately a boy, and yes that's a Heero Tank Top even though I painted it purple XD

Nice to meet you all

[Lunah]

I love your interp of Duo as a girl, it's the best one I've ever seen. He/she looks so natural, too.

Great piece, and welcome, Pyro
And I totally agree on the age gap ships o.o lol

[pyrochan]

it's funny, in my head rlDuo is really tall and lanky and gangly (he had a growth spurt) but girlDuo never grew and all the boys did so she's short and full of compact muscle... XD they exist as separate figments XD

[Lunah]

Compact. Olol.

I protest! I firmly believe Heero will always be much shorter than everyone else and Trowa will be the giant creepo who looms over everyone.

XD

[zethsaire]

Heero and Wufei both. Assuming they really are of Oriental origin. I always imagine Duo being the tallest; since he's American, and many American boys are over 6ft...but then again, I also did a piece where Trowa was the shortest; he stopped growing right after EW, and everyone else is taller then him, even Wu Fei. XP

[Lunah]

Oh sweet jesus, poor Trowa.

My only complaint is people tend to do that to reflect his submissive personality when personality has nothing to do with height. Heero's the strongest of all of them, and the most violent, and he's a tiny little bugger. XD But yeah, Wufei would probably be around his height, although I imagine him just a bit taller.

It's sort of like this in my head, fully grown:
Heero, shortest, 5'4''
Wufei, second, 5'6''-7''
Quatre, middle, 5-9''
Duo, fourth, 5-11''
Trowa, tallest, 6'2''-4''

Making Trowa a full foot taller than Heero.

[wxgizmosis]

Duo looks crazy. Great job xD

[pyrochan]

Well see I'm 6 foot... and a girl... and somehow I just imagine Duo would be at least on par with me probably 6'1, but fairly thin... I see Trowa as being one of those guys who was tall but when everyone else grew he'd not seem as tall, so perhaps 6, 6'1 again... Quatre... 5'10 5'11 and yes, Heero and Wufei at around 5'4 XD

Though I've ready a couple of stories with 5'2 Duo cos he never grew again due to early life malnourishment and they were well written and believable.

And no, I don't think any of the guys would willingly be submissive at all. XD Which is why I forsee domestics between Heero and Duo perhaps getting physical, not cos of 'wifebeating' as such but more because they might just crack and solve it with a fight XD

[zethsaire]

Heh, actually I made him really short in my story because he's an acrobat, and the best acrobats/gymnasts are short. The shorter the better, for that particular sport.

My most favorite fanfics, like pryzm's fic "Broken Warriors" don't paint Trowa as a submissive person, but rather a very strong personality. Maybe not well expressed, but strong.

Actually, if you like 3x1, you should check out raygunworks.net, and check the 3x1 page. And even if you don't like 1x2 or 3x4, because you love Trowa, you should read Broken Warriors. <a href://http://raygunworks.net/pyrzm.html> Here </a> Probably the best Trowa fic I've read.

Haha I love you explanation for your drawing of Duo as a girl, maybe I'll have to start gender bending as well considering alot of my guys tend to look like chicks. Awesome interpretation by the way. ^^

[zethsaire]

Bah, my cool link didn't work right.

[pyrochan]

I see gender bending as a test of your character skills. Being able to make them a believable woman but also true to their character is hard. Like I don't see GirlDuo as being all "NO NO SKIRTZ!" because I see guy duo and being lulzy enough to wear a dress.... I forsee GirlDuo wearing a miniskirt and being all "damn I'm sexy!" but not the kind of glamour mag sexy... XD

see... GirlDuo exists in my head as a construct... even though it's not something I ever see working as a fic or anything... but I have GirlEveryone and BoyRelena too.. XD BoyDorothy is just damned scary.

[twilistarr]

I have yet to read a 3x1 fanfiction of any sort, but I am intrigued by the idea so I'll have to look at your link when it works. XD

Edit: Dorothy is just scary period, I think it is the eyebrows... :x

[pyrochan]

zethsaire, forums use BBCode, ie [*url=link]Link Name[*/url] (remove stars)

[Lunah]

Hey, you tried. I got pissed when I realized you can't use that coding. It has to use the rectangular bracket coding :c BBC, I think it's called?

And gah! There are so many reasons to make them different heights, although there seems to be a general consensus on Quat and Wufei's heights, mostly cause their histories are not questionable.

Trowa is an acrobat and they are short, but realistically, during the series, he's already too tall to be a normal acrobat, so why not... continue the trend? :3

And I've actually seen that reasoning for Duo. It makes sense to me, but he always seems to vital and healthy that I just reasoned that after he got to the church, he was still young enough to be saved, which I think he was with Maxwell then with G. I think he still could have grown, because he looks like someone who needs to be tall.


Then again I always imagine Trowa being really buff and built which isn't exactly so until Endless Waltz and even then.... so I'm not sure how valid my opinion is. All I know is, I like my height system.

However, one complaint I have is someone wrote a 1x3 story (note: 1x3, not 3x1) and they turned the story so that Heero became like, 6 feet tall and Trowa was a tiny bugger. :C And that bothered me, because I just can't see Heero being taller. On par at most.
