In my original works, well, it is quite quirky to say the least. It isn't genius, though it might take a little bit of intelligence to work through the time line (the first book is set on the crest of the 22nd century, the next one's about 200 years after that, and the third one is set only a few years from now, and the three main characters are clones of each other who even manage to get the same name, but personality wise, they're also total opposites of each other, so it's not about the same character at all...you see where this gets confusing?)

And you make it sound like half-angsty, half-diabolical is a good, Yes.

sane, What on earth gave you that idea? :D

balanced mix... Well...1/2 + 1/2 = 1, but 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4, so...I have no idea what that means...

And, no, it's not just you - that song really does fit them. ^_^
