Bleachness

*is stocking up on tissues*

hey, while we wait for the scan, wanna talk about Gin's volume poem? We have some translations.

( large scan )

from here at BA:

「君が明日蛇となり
人を喰らい始めるとして
人を喰らったその口で
ボクを愛すと吠えたとしても
僕は果たして今日と同じに
君を愛すと言えるだろうか」

translation by pokerlulz:

You're going to turn into a snake tomorrow
Although you say you are going to start eating others
Even now, that mouth of yours which has devoured people
Still claims that it loves me
Can I remain like today
and still say I love you?


and this one from here by Terrazaru

You are becoming a snake tomorrow.
And as you start to devour people,
With that mouth that has eaten others,
You cry your love to me.
And the same as today, I do wonder.
Will I be able to say my love to you?

If you're going to mention current chapter spoilers in your comments, warn for SPOILER I guess.

( spoiler for 423 Farewell Swords )

[Poll #1590970]Recs: I just read a luminous short piece about Orihime thinking about Ulquiorra's death by the ever brilliant incandescens --it's PG and just a lovely vignette. "I shall not fail that rendezvous." There's a 30 days fandom meme going around and one of the best Bleach writers doing it is karenai . Just check out her Character You'd Like to Go Shopping With and other entries. They're so entertaining. Oh, and if you happen to be a member of y!gal and an Ishida fan who happens to like the yaoi and who doesn't mind the Quincest ... or even if you do, you MAY BE CONVERTED BY a new animation art by the stunning Eneada. Seriously, you don't want to miss this if you're an Ishida perv like me.

Hey, informal poll. I'm still terrified that Gin is gonna die. I don't even want to vote. Anyone care to reassure me that he's not?

Beauty is So Solitary--Read Chapter 320 here



Did someone read my complaints about there not being an official Orihime plush? No sooner had I finished commissioning a plushie from master plush maker Pheleon than an official one turns up! She's so cute! Someone buy her for me!



Another report on the Kubo panel with some stealth photos taken

People keep asking me about jaina's interview with Kubo-sensei. She should have a public post up about her experiences at SDCC eventually and her interview comes out in magazine form on Sept 17. She asked some wonderful questions and the interview should be an enjoyable read.  America's Shounen Jump has interview with Kubo appearing shortly before that for its October issue.

Scans are out. Check the Bleach Asylum Chapter Thread for the goodies and throw roses at Spacey's feet for bringing us these weekly spoilers and check out the new playground look of the forum.

Bleach is rated #1 this week in WSJ and I can see why.  There's something to squee about on every page.


Dunno why I'm typing so much of the bad grammar. The cleaning fluids from Passover preps have entered my bloodstream. See ya later, after the seder!'

Here it is. Usual warnings apply. Hard R, sex and violence, yaoi and het, fluff and dread.


Oh LJ, why must you play with my formatting?? >.<

Heelllloo, friendly neighborhood neurotic fanficcer  here.

Finished the story (there are yet another TWO parts I need to proof after this one), and even after losing 14 pages of part three, I felt good getting this one out. I haven't felt a fic lacking in a audience since I wrote The Girls (but that one did get well-received) and I haven't gotten as much out of an emotional purging from a story since Bright Majestic Winter. I think this one is a re-writing of "Winter""in a strong way--another excuse to play with the ideas of sexual power and identity, but this time I didn't want Aizen pulling all the strings. This is the new, un-victimized "Winter?" A dominance fic with romance? XD I tell you, I'm in outer space with this one.

Having writer's solipsism for breakfast, lunch, and dinner--it's the weekend after all.

*turns up choral music*

Without further ado, the part I am sure is going to make people go "huh?" :



Heh heh. I think I may be picking up some  of that "it's not what you think it is" evilness from my boyfriend, Kubo-san. This is what happens when I write for myself; I'll probably take drabble requests soon (I know, Cal! I owe you Ikitaku/Unohana!)  The chibis want to play Reader Rabbit on the computer now, so adieu until part 3.

Since DA suspended my innocent naked Orihime pic because she's an underage character, I've been doodling Matsumoto boobies in all sorts of wrong and sleazy ways. I did manage to come up with one pic. The other is just IshiHime sweetness.
