Shinies of another kind...
Work is freaking me out. Audited today. Was probably too nice. But it takes TOO DAMN LONG. There's stuff to be doing and I spent 4+ hours just auditing stuff. >.<;; It's easier to just say that stuff is right. I hope we do get a buddy audit someday so they can be harder on us.
So, when I got home I was having a terrible craving. See, a day or two ago starlit_dragon pointed me over to otterdance. Which in turn reminded me of Nightrunner and set me to craving Alec and Seregil. Now, of course, my first instinct when I wanted to read was to pick up CoS... but demons and darkness we freaking me out and I want to reread Nightrunner before the fourth book comes out anyway... So tonight I went out and picked up Luck in the Shadows.
I'm watching another two episodes of Princess Princess before bed though... because I'm weak.
Now... I liked the Drama, but they could seriously have taken a page from the Anime's book on subtlety. Because with how blatant they made the subtext, it was almost less slashable than the anime. because it was like.... painfully obvious that none of them wanted it. Granted, I do miss Kenken. I wish I could have him as Mikoto and everyone else be the anime cast, but sadly... no.
Also, the Drama missed out entirely on flashbacks to hot Arisada-princess days. Seriously... we all /know/ how good Takumi looks in a dress... why not use it!? I'm back to adoring Yuujirou again, he's so pretty and I love his speech-style shifts. The drama murdered his character (like so many others) and made him ugly, so I'm pleased to be seeing him properly again.
Anyway, still no sign of the kuro-hime-tachi. I hope they don't exist, that way snappy-bitch can forever stay Yuichi and I'll be fine. ^_^
I also had my leftovers for dinner and some cake and now I'm off to bed to remember how much I love rogues. Actual bed today, not sleeping on the couch. >.>
