Further crack from 10.5/20.5
Feb. 5th, 2004 11:02 pmYou know, I think even the Jfandom is kind of fazed by Shinji's Lexidata. Now that's impressive. (Only kind of. Some of them just shrug and proceed to write Kikumaru x Ibu Lexidata fic.)
Actually, what these fanbooks are, are design guides and doujinshi anthologies rolled into one. XD;; About 50/50 creator crack to fan crack, vying with each other in speculation on weighty matters like "What kind of style should Shishido grow his hair out into?" or "Who rooms with whom in St. Rudolph?" And just... staggering amounts of completely useless yet inexplicably amusing information. Seigaku's snack bar menu, Inui's hard drive space, the name of Atobe's white throughbred mare. It's like reading fic, only canon. A week now I've been thoroughly entertaining myself with them and all I've done so far is flip.
Kaidou's entertainment system. I've seen it in doujinshi, actually (you know they only provide all these floor plans so people can draw doujinshi worth a damn), just I assumed it was, y'know, the one in the family living room. But no, apparently it's his. With the huge flat-screen TV and the surround-sound speakers and the DVD player and the glass coffee table he does his homework on and never smudges. [It's... it's almost like my house. *thump*]
Sengoku's tarot book. That he has in his bag? Fuji Yumiko's the author. Apparently he hasn't made the connection between Seigaku tennis player!Fuji and hot fortune-teller chick on late-nite infomercial!Fuji, though. [...Okay, I made that last part up. But I'd be so avant-garde if I shipped Sengoku x Yumiko! XD;; Theirloveissosuperstitious!]
Tachibana cooks. Profile specifies Japanese food, and that he's good at it. [insert own Yamato Nadeshiko joke]
Yanagisawa: Dorm Mommy. "If one person catches cold it gets passed to everyone else in the dorm da ne~! Health is important da ne~!"
And there's Atobe in computer class... They teach programming at Hyoutei, you know. It's like CLAMP Campus without the blowfish.
Mizuki, um, everything. Mizuki reads Richard Dawkins' The Selfish Gene. Mizuki has delicate skin, so he wears long sleeves and slathers himself with sunblock even in winter. Mizuki sings solo in the school choir. Mizuki refuses to toss his clothes in the laundry pile with everyone else's, eww. Mizuki doesn't like it that their personal effects are stored in open cubicle shelves - other people can see his stuff, eww - so he made a little curtain for his. Mizuki has roses on his armchair cushion and roses on his handkerchief to match the roses on his sweater. Mizuki likes his lip cream to come in a tube, because you have to press with the stick kind and that just kills him. [$$ to donuts says he owns more than two Erasure albums.]
Tezuka's maniacal about personal hygiene. He goes through five cans of deodorant spray a month. [No, when I said useless information I meant it.]
Man, I'm sleepy. XD Off to bed. Responsibilities tomorrow.
