RAITEI FRIED MY G4 AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS LOUSY T-SHIRT

...But he didn't blow up all of MakubeX's computers at the end! Honto ni yokatta. XD

( ...I should stick this behind a cut, shouldn't I? )

...You know what would make a really great battle vid of this story arc? Sisters of Mercy, "Lucretia, My Reflection".

(Well, it's all battles, of course. As shounen fighting manga it's very formalised, which isn't a bad thing necessarily.)

( lyrics )

EDIT -- you know, I want to write that historical Juubei x Kadzuki thing. (Because it's manga, and the way manga works is, X's ancestor is actually X with a different hairstyle.) I'd do it comic-script-style, and it'd be the most original and useless GB fic evar.

Never going to happen, though, because we've already established that I can't write Japanese historical. ...Sod it, I have to finish this email.

Late-summer music

Ever since I stopped posting in pitas my music rotation has sort of died too. ^^; I'll probably start a proper MP3 page on petronia.net, when I get around to making a CSS-menu'd layout for it, but meanwhile:

Southern All Stars - Kawaimiina

Is nice. Retro-pop-sounding.

...I'm really tempted to write Ginji into The Lay of Nine (yes, I can do it just like that *snaps fingers*, that's the beauty of the set-up), because I have a past-real-Japan and need a future-real-Japan anyway. The part I'm not enthusiastic about is having to write a rhyming couplet about Raitei if I do. Remind me next time I write a story with a prophecy in it, to make it unpronounceable runes.

Ah vell. Will go read other people's fic. That's the good part of getting into something late.
