Talk:Siesta/@comment-98.28.88.47-20130215225537

Alright, after reading the comments below, I have decided to create as unbiased a comparison between Siesta and Louise as possible (this wasn't really difficult, honestly I'm not particularly fond of either.)

Siesta strikes me as a very innocent (to the point of being naive) character, she seems to be the kind who daydreams, she does get more aggressive later on in regards to her romance towards Saito, but it's too late by then. She's also rather helpless in stressful situations both physically ( no combat or support abilities to speak of) and emotionally (cliched maiden in distress schtick) On the plus side, she doesn't go insane whenever Saito does something she dislikes and can be surprisingly intuitive as to her surroundings.

Louise meanwhile, and I just know I'll get flamed for this, is kind of an emotional wreck, which is understandable given her history, having gone most of her life having almost no magic beyond very simple cantrips, she was ostracised by her peers and her kin, and this shows throughout the series. She craves attention and respect, more so than anyone else in this series possibly, to the point of abusing and degrading those she sees as below her or conforming to others' ideals to be accepted. In short, she has an extremely volatile cocktail of emotions that, given her void powers, could be catastrophically dangerous to both herself, and anyone around her.
