"How could we forget those ancient myths that stand at the beginning of all races, the myths about dragons that at the last moment are transformed into princesses? Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love."

ESI-Fi - I was briefly into him last year and have him added to my ESI typing list, but I can't recall the exact arguments for it. Must have been his communication style, which is brief and underspoken, much of it being conveyed through telling looks, demonstrative movements, and subtle facial expressions, in combination with -Fi, with his attention being directed at the rifts, letdowns, and breaking points in relationships (much like Stratievskaya if you've seen her articles).
