I blame Kîna

(Well, not really.  I had already taken this quiz after seeing it in somebody's journal from last year.  But jainasia's mention got me to post mine!)

How nice, you're the gentle kirin. Originally from China, you made your way to japan and brought your nobility and purity with you. You are very sentimental and care about other beings, you are the familiar of the goddess Kannon, also known as Kwan Yin or Tara. The goddess of mercy. You represent everything just and pure. You should be proud! Kirin is the oriental species of unicorn.

Is there *any* way in which I am "like a kirin"?

I think it is safe to say that there is absolutely no way in which you are like a Kirin.

Well, you do seem to be remarkably adept at understanding and appreciating others' perspectives, and you've been seen to reflect - in public - on past experiences. Perhaps a fairer question might be to wonder in what ways you're unlike the personification given?

(And, for what it's worth, I received "kirin" as well. I'm not displeased. Red pandas don't figure into Japanese mythology at all, as far as I can see, and not even that deeply into Chinese lore, from what I can gather. Perhaps it comes from being experienced at Not Being Seen)
