*bounces with you* Marui is so curiously fun to write, just in the ideas and emotional tones one can get through in his voice. (Kirihara I keep having to cheat with by shifting to omni POV).

Also, given that I pretty much phail at writing Niou, I really need at least one POV character with some sort of balanced (or at least slightly-detached) worldview in the whole bunch. (Niou calls it sanity, but whatever.)
