It would be so much fun to watch some yaoi OVAs and play this bingo with a friend - too bad none of my RL friends are yaoi fans. *the lonely-fangirl-sigh*

Everytime you cross one one of them off, you take a drink.
We would get so drunk.

It's a good thing that parents don't always know everthing about their children's interests... ^^
Oh yeah, we would get sooo drunk! We couldn't walk straight anymore. (But "straight" is unfashionable, anyway.) That would be so much fun together. :D

I was telling her that it was a love story that had a very good plot and was very well written and interesting.
She picked one of the books off my shelf to take a look at the art style, flicked it open and stood there in shock.
She'd picked up book 7 and had somehow opened it directly onto the second sex scene.
"This is just gay porn! I'm not reading 7 books of gay porn!"
Whoops.

"7 books of gay porn" - not exactly...^^
Damn, I mean there are only two sex scenes in Fake, the first one is not even that explicit, and of course she had to open directly the second one! xD
And I guess now she thinks that you see porn as "a love story with very good plot, well written and interesting", right? xD
Well, shit happens. :D

She will never trust my opinion again! She could have picked any other book, on any other page and it would have been fine.
But now she will miss out on a wonderful series... and thinks I'm a bit of a pervert (which I am, but she didn't need to know that!).

Stupid girl. She doesn't know what she's missing. ;)
Hey, perverted yaoi fangirls rule the world! Doesn't she know that? :D
My friends already find me a bit weird, I guess, because of my strong anime and manga addiction, but I hope they'll never find out the true extent of my perversion. xD
(and omg, our avatars fit this conversation perfectly, don't they? :D I can practically hear Dee thinking: "Good thing that nobody knows what a naughty little yaoi fanboy I am, nyahahaha!" xD)

The Dee icon is perfection. Dee would never judge us!
I have worked out Ted's song for the Karaoke... Tom Jones "Kiss", because that way he can flirt with EVERY woman in the room all at once! ;-)
Ahh I need to work on these other two fanfics I have going. These are longer so I need to do a better job of cleaning them before posting.

It's okay JJ, you can calm down again. It's only an icon. :D
I hope no-one will be able to crack the password of my laptop as soon as I'm dead! xD
Okay, so Ted is going to sing "Kiss", Dee will sing "Moves Like Jagger"... who's next? Maybe JJ with "Bangarang" by Skrillex? xD Although I don't really know if you can even sing and dance to that song. But if anyone can do it, it's JJ!
May I ask what the fanfictions will be about? Sorry that I'm so inquisitive... ^^ Maybe I could even beta-read them for you, although I don't think that I'll be much help. :/

Of course Dee would hope that something's going on between JJ and Drake because this means that JJ would finally get over his love for Dee.
Well maybe it will be a bit difficult to write, but what's writing without challenges? ;) And I'm sure you will manage it.
I'm looking forward to your stories! :)

One of the first clues that Dee gets about the relationship is that he bumps into JJ and doesn't get pounced. He can't decide if he is relieved or annoyed that maybe he's losing his sex appeal. xD
(I think it's more relief than anything!)
Writing for Dee and Ryo is fun. I just hope I can keep them in character (I can deal with messing up on the grammar and technical bits but I don't like screwing up the characters).
Reply
But I agree, in the first place he would probably be relieved. And wondering what the hell is going on. ;)
I also don't like fanfictions that don't keep them in character. But I guess it's not very easy with Fake because the characters there are all quite profound.
I don't think that you'll screw up the characters though. You spent many thoughts on figuring out what makes the different persons tick. Besides, your little drabble and your Berkeley essay have already proven that you know very well what and who you're writing about. :)

I'm having problems getting JJ's character right to be honest, it's hard to get into such a happy frame of mind. So I have a feeling my JJ will most likely be less bouncy than he really is. But that can work, because he's normally only bouncy around Dee... and Drake is not Dee.
Some of my favorite short fanfictions are not brilliantly written, but I like them anyway, I think atmosphere is very important.
Did you read the books in English or in German?
Reply
I think your JJ will be just fine. In the chapter where Max Fork dies, we see that JJ is not always happy happy joy joy, but can be quite serious too.
Yes, atmosphere - and witty ideas, and humour. If that's all given and the writing style is not too bad, I'm happy with it. :D
I read them in English because I read them online (Shame on me! Shame on me!), but I plan on buying them in German someday soon as well (as soon as my bank account allows it^^). Brit told me some time ago that the german translation is in some scenes slightly different from the english one, and I'm curious to find out more about that. :)
