[@Apokalipse] Haha I'm glad you like German so much as well <3 It's one of my favorite languages too :D
I'm reasonably good at both speaking and reading it (which might be due to the fact that I live in one of the neighboring countries). I'm able to have a standard conversation and read normal German novels, but poems are a whole different story... :p
I have a few German books at home, one of which is Faust (the paragraph in my post is from the prequel of Faust). I also have Leben des Galilei (Bertolt Brecht), Mutter Courage und Ihre Kinder (Bertolt Brecht), Der Vorleser (Bernhard Schlink) and a book of poems by Heinrich Heine at home. :3
Also I can imagine that our characters would either get along pretty well, or that Etsuko would get really annoyed by Nori. xD
'Cause Nori's like "there's something beautiful in every person~ =v=" while Etsuko hates everyone. x3

They'd be like each other's characters foil~ 

That's so awesome (: I lived in Germany for like five years and went to school on one of the American military bases. I SHOULD HAVE been able to speak good German except for the fact that Frau E**** for some reason wanted to give us history lessons [i]on things we would learn about in the ninth grade[/i]. I wanted to know German! Man, that class was actually pretty messed up because I was like in the fourth/fifth grade when I was in it and she would read us stories from the Grimm Fairytales, like the really messed up ones, and then she would tell us all about what the Nazis did to the Jews in the Holocaust.
