He'd only seen her natural hair color once: after two weeks at sleep-away camp, she came back with stripes her brown hair peaking through the faded blue, kind of like she was molting or something. When he said she looked like a mixed-up skunk, she chased him around the Pink Palace. (Coraline - "Birds & Bees")
It had been hot work, pulling weeds, and boring, too, even when she pretended she was Godzilla and the plants were unfortunate bystanders meeting their untimely demise. (Coraline - "Wrapped up in Clover")
"We don't have to watch any movies," I said hurriedly. "We can go to bed, like, right now so we can wake up at the buttcrack of dawn and get you to your interview. Or maybe I'll stay up all night reading your notes out loud to you so you can learn them by osmosis or something. I don't know. But I'm staying and I need a toothbrush." (Digimon - "Fine Art")

As soon as she figured out who she was, she'd chase the little harlot right out of town. (TTBtM)
When Lest tugged at buttons that ran along her back like a second spine, she had to close her eyes and lock her jaw so that confessions and vomit didn't spill out. ("Masca")

Date: 2009-06-22 05:31 pm (UTC)I just watched Spirited Away movie (for the thousandth time) last week, and the idea of her re-establishing her relationship with Haku is eeeeeeeeee so intriguing. I was reminded of this Chinese myth I read as a kid about a ghost/spirit marriage. Of course that was a Chinese rather than Japanese tradition, so it doesn't really fit into the Spirited Away universe, but the idea that a marriage can meld the human and spirit worlds really interested me.
Also, fandom means never having to
say your sorrydoubt your sanity! If watching a movie numerous times in a day while frantically scribbling away in a notebook is wrong, then I don't want to be right!
