So we have the condor's poll going, which Swan do you think would suit the Eagle? Ken or Mark.

I think Jun is a little better suited to both of them. She's good at pulling their heads out of the clouds.

Jun is winning! You know I thought Princess would be a contender.

These things don't let me vote, or I'd be all over Princess being the better girl!!

The poll must be over, SJ.

Ahhhhh just my luck to miss out on voting for my swannie

Maybe it's a good thing this poll is closed, or I would have had to do a write in.... The first thing I thought when I read the subject line of the thread was "Me!!"

Meesa sad too the pole was closed! I would hae picked Rumi. Just for the priceless look on Jun's face! #dodges yoy-yos#

Erm, who's Rumi/Amanda and I think I would have voted Princess if the poll was still going as she was one of the few young ladies I fancied as a kid.

I believe Rumi was the daughter of the man/scientist who was going to sell secrets to Galactor. Ken finds her in a room, in a Galactor Base, after he punches her. She falls in love with Ken and Ken then returns her to her father at a train station. Or do I have the wrong person.

Oooops Made a mistake!!!!!

You're right, CD...Rumi is Dr. Boronbo's daughter...the one who was kidnapped by Galactor...she had a big crush on Ken...and I think he was "digging" her, too...I think it's funny that Jun says she is jealous of Rumi in this ep (even though she has no idea what is really going on with Ken...then she'd be even more jealous!) I was looking to see if I had a screenie...I am working on this volume in my Fan Pages now...

Ken walked away from a potential romance....(Anguish and longing for the life he could never have...) it was meant to high light his sacrifice for the planet...

In the BotP version, I believe Mark was flattered, but put her crush down to hero-worship or something. He admitted to having an "affection" for Princess in that one ... It was one of the reasons he said it wasn't a good thing for them to hook up. At least I think that's the eppy

When I watched that episode... I wondered if Jun really did know since Ken went alone... Can't blame her for being jealous

Yes, I remember that! I like the BOTP version better! He does say he "has his affections for Princess..." good Eagle!

Now my smutty little mind is toooooooootally interpreting that comment in lots of fun ways ... :snort: How sweet though ... he is a one-woman kinda guy. Strange word "affections" to use i a kids proggie though. When I was six, I asked mum what Mark meant by that. Her response to that was... that he "played trains" with her.. What does that mean? Shortly before that, my six-year-old self had walked in on mum in a ... oh ... compromising situation ... (every kid has walked in on nookie once, right?) when I questioned what she was doing she told me she was "playing trains"... Unique explanation, eh? So, while I absolutely did not get it ... That's what I thought. And want to hear something really funny????? (And, oh totally embarrassing -- thank gosh it was cute) We used to play BotP all the time at school and home when I was 6 going on 7. So after that, I was Princess, and a little boyfriend was Mark. Seeing the episode was fairly recent, we both got nekkid and got in to bed. No, we didn't do anything but lie there and wonder "what's so interesting about this?" ... But we got our asses royally kicked when Mum came home!! I was banned from watching BotP for a week! Uh, should I really admit that to you lot????? Just slip that into the "You know you've watched too much Battle of the Planets when:" files ... HAHA SJ

Too funny! And here they tried so hard to make BOTP into a wholesome and educational show for children, yet it nevertheless had a "corrupting" influence, courtesy of Mark and Princess!

I saw the show before I started collecting euphamisms, so never saw it that way. Off to split my brain again. Have to keep one part innocent.
