Even though I love Celes's suicide scene, more from the emotional reaction it got from me than anything else, I always did feel troubled that all it took for her to go on living was the slim hope that Locke was still alive (although a friend told me that his interpretation was that Celes thought she was the last person alive, and Locke's bandanna convinced her otherwise, an interpretation I vastly prefer). Can't say I'm a fan of dependent woman in stories. Keep up the good work!
