elabyFirst of all, the Five Things meme that's been going around! Because ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
caitirin is having way too much fun for me to not get in on it.
Five Things in a List meme
Here's how it works: Give me a "five things" list prompt and I will write you a list and post it in my journal. You can ask about any five things anyone did or did not do, five objects, five instances, or anything else in the fandom of your choice: original characters, Utena, Gundam Wing, Harry Potter, Sailor Moon, X-Files, Firefly, Weiss Kreuz, Rurouni Kenshin, Lord of the Rings, Shakespeare... and probably anything else that you know I like but have left it out here.
That out of the way:
Is he gone?
Ay, but he'll come again, he cannot go.
He loves me too too well to serve me so.
Yet he that in my sight would not relent
Will, being absent, be obdurate still.
By this is he got to the water-side;
And see, the soldiers take him by the hand,
But he shrinks back, and now, rememb'ring me,
Returns amain: welcome, welcome, my love!
But where's Aeneas? Ah, he's gone, he's gone!
-- Christopher Marlowe, Dido, Queen of Carthage act 5, scene 1, lines 183-92
My lover's gone
His boots no longer by my door
He left at dawn
And as I slept I felt him go
Returns no more
I will not watch the ocean
My lover's gone
No earthly ships will ever bring him home again
Bring him home again
- Dido, My Lover's Gone

Five thoughts that Crawford deliberately blocked from Schuldig.
Five things that Saitou would rather commit seppaku than admit to anyone.
Five incidents that Kenshin would prefer that Kaoru never found out about.
*snicker* That's all for now, but I'll probably think of more.
