Still whining, Subaru-kun?
I don't know. It always amazes me how all these fandoms are reminiscent of Louis and Lestat. (which, and I don't care who thinks I'm nuts, is the only reason I can see for all the ex-Vampire fan fiction writers who pair off Draco and Harry. Great, BabyAU!Lestat x Louis. ><) Or at least they became the cliche: Lestat being the predatory monster who has a large ego, a heart of gold, and an insatiable desire for Louis and Louis alone. Louis being the angsty, whiny uke who has self-esteem issues like you wouldn't believe, hates himself for loving a monster, and lusts after him. 'Course I suppose this is the cliche way that all semes and ukes interact which is so very disappointing...unless it's a PWP, in which case mmmhmmm...and it might just be because LestatxLouis was the first pairing I really wrote for...and the cliches never seem to go away no matter what other pairing I read. Though really, I didn't get bored with LestatxLouis as there was a lot more...variety I'd say in most people's views and no one took themselves too seriously. I just long for a fan fiction--maybe a parody-- where Seishirou grabs Subaru, pins him to the ground "Oh Subaru-kun. Still whining, Subaru-kun? Haven't you had enough? I've had to listen to that for years now." (a slight varient on what Lestat actually says in the horrible movie version of Interview with the Vampire). I think besides maybe what Lisa writes about him...at least he's given some dimension and a backbone and some frikkin' character developement. With a few other rare exceptions, fandom!Subaru is so cliche and, well, boring to put it kindly. And I feel horrible that Seishirou has to put up with him. And in the meantime, Hokuto is jumping up and down and screaming at the top of her lungs for them to sleep together and stop beating around the bush. Not to mention every other fic is about him and Seishirou as you also pointed out. >< In fact, this was a big reason for why I momentarily thought about completely abandoning my interest in X... Then I realized that abandoning a manga because of its stoopid fans was a really awful reason to do so. Besides I really like Fuuma x Kakyou better than Seishirou x Subaru. I like the various couples that could be formed with any of the the other Seals and Angels though so few people write about that (thank you, Keri for writing about that ^^). Not to mention there are other actual couples in X. I mean, to be quite honest, I don't think I'd ever write or think about writing fan fiction if someone out there was ever going to write what I want to read. Or wrote about other couples for crying outloud!!! There are other couples in X, I promise you. Other couples that long to be written about. As it is though, I'm kinda bored with Subaru just in general. Or was...I think I really like that he's now the Sakurazukamori. He's so pretty and bitter. *shrug* I just know that Subaru never is or ever will be the thing I love best about X. Besides, being the center of the X universe is Fuuma's job...and Frog-san's. ^^ That stuffed frog is the best. Anyway, I guess this is my rant for the day....phew...feel so much better.

Thank goodness for Daryl's e-mail. Gah, I love him so much. It was so very, very helpful to hear from him. It sucks that he's not here. Though I will admit talking to Karen last night made me feel much better. At least about certain things. Thank god I'm not the only person who thinks so much here is profoundly BS. Daryl said: "Never explain yourself. Your friends won't need it, and your enemies won't believe you anyway." And that's what I need to start doing. I don't need to rationalize everything I feel...how cool is that? Oh and as soon as I have Al look at what I've written so far of Seishirou x Yuuto, I can decide what to do with my fic.... ~April
Grrrrr
So I guess I'll go home this weekend to get it. Oh well...guess I won't mind going home. I can get all the paperwork filled out..just...oy... So I guess today I'll be doing a ton of reading and working on figuring out the Computer Science project that I have that's due in a week and 5 days. Other than that, maybe I'll sleep and try not to keep panicing about everything. Meh..I need a massage, a hug, and a clone.

The basic plot was this little fairy-boy (well, the idea is you're soul is a fairy but you're caught somewhere between the fae realm and the human one) had this toy dragon...and when he got to be about 13ish, he kinda abandoned it to"grow up" and the dragon got sad and then grew angry..and decided that it would take its revenge by hunting after other little boys. It took posession of the little boy's parents in order to effect other children...and basically, the players had to remind the dragon of what love meant to get it to stop what it was doing. And basically, when they wanted to cast powrs, the players had to recite a poem or something strange or creative. When one of them had to go and try to defeat the dragon, she sang a song...I mean really sang a song. ^.^ I think I will have to write it out in some way...it was a pretty neat idea tha just sorta came to me. I was so proud to be creative again...it felt so freeing, so wonderful...so...so great. Then I went out to Wal-mart with Karen, Erin, and Dessa. And we sang "The Rainbow Connection" on the way. ^.^ It doesn't get much better than that. I hope I can still possibly run some sort of game on Sunday for Jennifer and her friend whose coming up...but I'm also sorta running a Vampire game on Sunday online...but...hrm... ~April

Yatta!!
It's gorgeous...though there's this picture of Kokyou with a woman....with long red nails...and...furry ears....and I'm thinking, that's really weird. *baps freaky-lady out of existence* There. Much better. Well, I must away with me to horrible classes and work. But I can bring my artbook with. :] ~April
Gotta love the creepy cuteness of CCS...
Still annoyed about the FF.net fiasco and I hope people do sign the petition floating about. The more, the better. Other than that, my Wish artbook should be here tomorrow and THAT will be so very, very happy as I'm been wanting it for quite some time. Mmmm...*_* Wish...
