Look, look!
This is what photoash got for me:
Yes, an actual autographed Yamato Nase doujinshi, featuring talking penises!! And it arrived just in time for my birthday too! *does a happy dance*
My mother, of course, only paid attention to the ad inside, for Yamato Nase's new manga. Seeing three people in the picture clinging to each other in a most tender fashion, she asked hopefully, "These are... two boys and a girl?"
"Err... no, all three are boys."
"Oh."
I should have explained to her that real threeway relationships are fairly rare in yaoi manga, that generally these covers display the uke and his two love interests, and he will probably end up with just one of them. But I had a feeling it would not make much of a difference to her.
I am looking forward to Monday when I will have a chance to wish people happy birthday and hear "thanks, you too!" in return. Less than 15 people in our office and three of them have birthday on the same day, how unlikely is that, huh?
