Minekura Kazuya - Saiyuki, vol. 01-09 (Eng. trans.) (reread)

Really, this is just an excuse to use my shiny new icon! Yay ikkou love! Yay Sanzo waving a gun around!

I noticed more random and fun things this time around! I adore Minekura and how she sneaks these little things in.

I wonder if Kougaiji hadn't rescued Yaone, if she'd been taken instead of Kanan. Man, I could do a five-story set just riffing off of variations of that. Yaone gets taken instead and Kanan is still with Gonou when he meets Gojyo some other way! Yaone and Kanan meet in the cell! Yaone fails to save Kanan, but does poison the guards and meets Gonou on her way out! Kougaiji shows up to rescue Yaone, finds her dead and Kanan alive, and rescues Kanan instead! Etc!

The whole four-way Kid!Ikkou flashback section, when it cuts from Goku wailing to young Sanzo thinking, "Did I hear a voice?" just kills me.

Yes you should totally do that! (no, really, I am in no way bad and trying to tempt you away from real work)

Gonou gets there too late to save Kanan but drags Yaone out instead! Gonou somehow gets confused and rescues Yaone instead!

OK, I've been inspired. Expect a story on this theme to go up some time this weekend or early next week.

WHOO!!

More fic is never a bad thing.

Yaone fails to save Kanan, but does poison the guards and meets Gonou on her way out I want to read this so much.

I did write a story that was a variation on that: http://edonohana.livejournal.com/9589.html
