I have been writing for

31_days. As aforementioned it is all going to be Mirage of Blaze, although length, mood and style vary greatly. I keep writing truncated drabbles because I don't have time to really think things over. Going coucou and hitting the point where metaphorically linking the Retsumyousei and Yuzuru by way of Koubou Daishi (seeing that Yuzuru is, well, Maitreya basically) seems like the most hilarious idea ever. Although I am 75% sure at this point that it'll be done in canon. Kuwabara babbles in the afterword to 21 no less that there's higanbana/manjushage all over the place in Shikoku and she thinks of it as "her" flower since it blooms around her birthday, and anyhow it's red like all the other red things she likes. Blood... wine... roses... rubies... Takaya's left eye... つまり。I can only laugh. I've also been attempting to purchase an mp3 player but that's turning into a whole 'nother drama.

...In other news, have some music.

Nujabes + Fat Jon - Aruarian Dance
kazami - YOU

From various Samurai Champloo OSTs. Warm and dreamy.

UA - Summer Melancholic: theme of this post as well as the title of the song. Actually it sounds like it could come from a Samurai Champloo soundtrack as well, with the sleepy, wandering dub bassline.

Taima - Remaining For You: Taima is a Quebec duo that does mellow acoustic folk in French, English and Inuktitut. To me it sounds like fleeting northern summer, the ice breaking apart and the land misting over with green. I'm debating going to see them at the Spectrum on August 2nd.

pornkings tagged me with a meme: Ask me my top five of anything.

( Tin asked me my top five items of clothing and the top five concerts I attended )

P.S. I am tagging the people who commented on my meme who haven't done it yet. So:
