The lessons we learn.
Report in from Anime Oasis, where I currently sit attempting to sell my unwanted Japanese mangas and various other goods. Business is going well, and I have been here for a while now editing Bokutachi and eying the art of the person next to me, so...
Me: Do you do commissions?
Her: Yeah.
Me: Do you do yaoi? Or I mean, like, kissing?
Her: Well, I don't...Ah...I can do cuddling, but kissing I'm not really...
Me: Yeah, that's fine! *happy because she figures she'll have to pay someone to do any fanwork for this series and even just cuddling is fine cause what she wanted to see was these characters done in better art, and being really kissy touchey isn't in these characters' personality so someone who's not huge into yaoi might be good, anyway (though a chaste kiss might be nice since the one in the manga was a bit of a letdown, but can't have everything)*
*later*
Her: Here you go.
Me: Oh! ....*realization of mistakes made* ...Thanks.
*pays*
I need to remember that my taste in yaoi and what is sexy or attractive is different than that of most yaoi fangirls, but if I don't tell people that there is no way they would know. Because this picture of Tamio and Takashi naked in bed together is kind of freaking me out. (Especially since the manga volumes I gave her for reference were the ones where they were in elementary school... T_T)
