My thoughts about things.
Today I filtered out my FMA communities because I am terrified of being spoiled before the end. (Just five more eps to go.) And it struck me just how revisionist LJ can be. Now, when I look at my friends page, it's like they were never there. And if I add someone, to all appearances, they were always there. It's kind of freaky.
Is it just me or is Ron/Draco the best hate pairing ever? I don't think Harry cares enough about Draco to hate him. But Ron, oh, Ron cares very much.
In other news, I spent the day working on my computer, working on the Boy's computer, and watching hockey at the pub. Go Canada!
The Boy's computer must be fixed because right now he cannot play AVIs and if he cannot play AVIs, he cannot watch Prince of Tennis, which he is keen to do. I swear I didn't pimp him into this -- I got him to pick up the Viz manga translation for me and he read the first two volumes and thought they were great. So.
Vol 3 came in yesterday. Very enjoyable. There were little profiles of Ryoma and Momo. Momo's said one of his hobbies was sensory games. I'm trying to think what that could be, besides the obvious, which it can't possibly be. Hmm... I've also beeing picking up the Viz Narutos and the ad for PoT 1 & 2 which says Can Ryoma tame the "snake"? makes me laugh every fucking time.
John Crichton is the most annoying ass in the universe. Next to him, Mulder looks appealing. Aeryn/D'Argo OTP!
Maybe I'm just cranky without my Rodney this week.
I thought vaguely about writing some Mugen/Jin slash but then decided there was no point -- I like them het and that's all there is to it. Jin is a romantic and Mugen is a horndog and I love love love it, but I just want to see them with women. Which is not to say I don't love their "waiting to kill each other" bond. But for me, that's enough.
And that's enough random blather. Hopefully, I'll have some actual content here soon.

I looked at my friend's Teni Puri Volume 1 and at one point Oishi called Fuji "Huji." I guess VIZ didn't care too much about typos in that.

...if one was going to pimp PoT to someone, what would that one say? *g*

Yes, it's about boys who play tennis. And their progression through various tournaments. But the characters are a *lot* of fun. I got into the anime first which is maybe more crack-like.
Imagine that HP wasn't about Voldemort and all that stuff and instead they just went to school and the books were all about them playing Quidditch and all the boys were pretty. If you could get into that, you could get into PoT.
I admit, I'm finding it quite a challenge fic-wise because while there are many very cool characters, there's not a lot of scope for Things to Happen.
So, are you sold? *g*

As for Ron/Draco, I don't know if it's better than anything else, but though I once swore I'll never like it, I find myself reading a lot if it lately...

Oh, God, yes. I love them so much, their sick dynamic. And think about Draco in OotP, staying up late, struggling to compose "Weasley is our king"... He pays much more attention to Ron than to Harry.

I also like these two het (and it has nothing to do with wanting Jin all by myself, no) but then again I´ve been feeling the "het" vibe very strongly lately, maybe when I watch the whole series I´ll change my mind and want them to do it like rabbits, I dunno.
By the way I read "Summer Thing" last night (or well, morning, since it was 6 a.m.). I can´t believe I hadn´t read it before. Very nice. I don´t know who´s luckier, Fred, George or Hermione.

And hands off Jin! He's mine!
Glad you liked Summer Thing. That's one of my fave HP fics. And it made me into a Hermione/George shipper. :)

Since I hate the Harry/Draco pairing with a passion and I´ve never really known who to slash Ron with it seemed natural to me liking R/D, so the two boys are busy and do not mess with the rest of my OTPs. I´m that simple.
And hands off Jin! He's mine!
You´ll have to fight for him. Ok. You can have him. He´s too cool to be with me anyway.
And it made me into a Hermione/George shipper. :)
I´ve always preferred Fred when it comes to the twins but somehow I think George is more apt for a relationship with Hermione, I can´t point exactly why.

But there's a movie coming out next year, so yipee!

Crichton and Mulder are both perfectly appealing to me.
D'Argo? Not so much...
(Though Aeryn blows 'em all out of the water!)

Threesome with Fuu. It's the only answer. *g* Seriously, if they would ever give us a little more background on these guys I would love to try writing some gen. They still ping for me, slash-wise, but it's not the main reason I watch. I just love all of them.
Heh. I think you're the only one of my f-list that's into FMA, so I'm not worried about seeing spoilers. On the contrary, as I watch the raws, I have to make a dedicated effort to not post my reactions and spoil you.
no subject
Oh, god, you may be right. That's...worth considering. I so love Fuu.
Spoil me for FMA and I'll cut you, bitch! *g*
God, I really am very tense about being spoiled. I have a few more FMA folks on my flist and I think you're all watching the raws, which I won't do. Ack! Maybe once the raw for 51 drops, I'll just go off LJ altogether until there's a sub. *twitch twitch*
