TT_TT I'm devastated no one screen capped Conrad carrying Yuri bridal style.... WO! LAMENT! What is a ConYuu fangirl to do? ^_^ Thanks for putting these up!
I never understood their choice when making screencaps, it happened in the past that we had 20 screencaps of KKM females and 2 or the main charas too...
... you know, firemen carry the people they rescue with one arm supporting their backs and the other under their knees. Are we supposed to consider that "bridal style" as well?
Only if the firefighter and the victim are both hot. >.> Then yes, yes we can, because it would still be romanticism and thus inner-slash demons can run wild. ...? That was a bit random, may I ask what ship you sail under? I mean, granted you could also interpret that style of carrying to be a paternal protective sort, as Yuri is Conrad's godchild and you could see a parent carry their child like that to prevent disruption of their sleep, however... ultimately, he automatically covered him before lifting him which is also a bit of a protective gesture and not out of comfort ((Yuri didn't look cold to me)) therefore could be as a way to further his embrace and presence around him. ^_^ Firefighters, they don't take off their OWN covering, they use fire blankets. Any other questions? XD
It has also been referred to as princess style, I do like both turns of the phrase.
I apologize for it seeming so random. I came back through this thread looking for the link to the Japanese summaries and screencaps for 87 so I could hunt down the ones from 88, and I happened to see your comment

^_^ My one problem with your interpretation to the effect of the clothing, and it's just a small one... they met back up with Cheri and Fan-Fan, did they not? ^_^ And Fan-Fan was holding Yuri and Wolfram's clothing from before, yes? Yet... Yuri still chose to bum around the ship in Conrad's jacket instead of get changed. Now, I don't know if you've been through gym classes that have you change (I don't know your school systems or age, as you see, nor do I need to...) but, you can get changed on the move pretty fast as people in gym class are wont to do in under five minutes. I think sometime between Fan-Fan's and the shipping yard, Yuri COULD have changed, unless something else held him from it... like, oh, the desire to wear Conrad's jacket for the sake of fan-girls or other romantic inklings. ^_

True, but there's no evidence they went to FanFan's. More likely, Fanfan arranged for them to get the rowboat and for them to meet Cheri's ship in a safer venue. I tend to think the planners of the rescue would be smarter than to go to the shipyard, which would have been under guard normally (or if not the shipyard, then the harbor itself, given Cheri's initial reception).
I believe one "picks on Yuuri" and I would challenge anyone to tell me that icon is incorrect. ^^;;
I can see why you might make snap judgments about what pairing-clique I'm in, due to other fan's behavior, however that doesn't mean I have to appreciate or accept the insinuation. Disagreement does not automatically mean opposition and sadly, the tendency for fans of a pairing to read into "moments" at the expense of their attention to the plot and/or other characters is what will make me dislike a pairing, rather than anything happening with the pairing itself

If you don't have anything nice to say... you're probably me? XD j/k... j/kvanessasquestJune 5 2008, 17:47:09 UTC
Anou, I forgot to put into the text bubble that I thought the icon was cute, I didn't mean to insinuate that I disliked it, merely that it DID tease Yuri (On the contrary I loved it, and "not everybody's sun" can also be read as a bit of teasing remark. ^_^ So, 2.) Anyhow, I can't help but feel like you're being a bit caustic here. XD

If by "berating", you mean my disinterest in allowing you to pigeon-hole me in a narrow-minded fashion, then that's unfortunate. I did not appreciate your response to my comment being "what ship do you sail by", the implication being I could not possibly disagree with you if I liked ConYuu. The spins you choose to put on the scenarios I presented you with speak more toward your bias than mine. The "evidence" you see so clearly is not necessarily blatant to everyone else.
I do not particularly care what pairing is your OTP, or OT3, or if you're a pan-shipper. However, the mindset you seem to present is why there are ridiculous "ship wars" in the first place.
Well, I agree and disagree yet again, *shrugs* I genuinely was curious as to what your ship was, and as you said you're fair-game. I hardly see it as narrow-minded, but I can see how someone would see that if they dislike what they're being told. ^_^ I thought I initially addressed it in a whimsical fashion, oh, one more note about cradling that I failed to raise-- it's more behind the neck than under the arm/across the back. ^_^ Believe it or not, I happen to like MuraYuu pairings, so it isn't as if I completely neglect him. *Shrugs* You actually remind me of an angry Ken, as silly as that is. I think anyone and everyone can come to common grounds, though we haven't been particularly coming up to points where I can readily demonstrate it. However, as far as things go, have you noticed I have attempted to be positive within my posts? Genuine attempts too, you on the other-hand have so far seemed to not be so interested. It's just one's mindset to focus on particular things. I can't help but find these comments entertaining, but I am
