Hey, all. Gods, I'm so tired. I've had severe insomnia for over a week now - I'm ready to pass out in exhaustion again already to catch up on some more sleep. *yawns*
I'm already thinking of changing my LJ layout; TsuSoka is nice, but I'm not overly fond of the color scheme. Maybe a Lacus Clyne (Gundam SEED) or Cloud Strife (Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children) layout? Whatever it ends up as, I'm going to try some new ideas out and see what I can do to make my journal look different. So far, all I've really done is change the colors and banner image; I'm ready for something new altogether. Oh, and some new icons. Yeah...
Oh, for those who were asking, here's the link for my Gackt Winamp skin! [
preview] | [
download] I guarantee, though, that the skin is much better than the screencap I've got of it.
Need to get to work on those other skins I've got planned. Mainly, though, I want to make a Naoe Nagi (Weiß Kreuz) skin - I've got skins of pretty much all the other WK characters, but not Nagi-kins! *cries* Grassy must make up for this horrendous lack in the Winamp skin world! Well, that and Gundam SEED skins in general. Need to make myself some Lacus, Kira, Athrun, and Whore-sama... *coughs* I mean Yzak skins.
Been in a Final Fantasy VIII mode of late - Seifer/Squall, baby! Though I have read a couple of good Laguna/Squall fics... Irvine/Quistis, Zell/Quistis, Irvine/Zell, and Irvine/Selphie are cool, but most times, you can't get a good het-Quistis fic that doesn't have Squall/Rinoa. *shudders* So gross. It's almost as bad as Cloud/Tifa (Final Fantasy VII).
Hey, does anyone out there watch Duel Masters? If so, has anyone noticed that Knight is basically a dark-haired Sesshoumaru (Inuyasha)? Or Orgy's Jay Gordon in anime form (with really long hair)? Verrrry nice. Hakuo is rather pretty-licious as well. I think Mimi might be my favorite character overall, though - she's wicked cool! "Is it like Go Fish?" *snickers*
I'm waiting until I see a few more eps of Rave Master before I give a real opinion on it...but the bishounen are plentiful! And Crispin Freeman is General Shuda's VA! Wai!!! So far, I'mma likin' it muchly. I'm thinking Shuda/Gail, Shuda/Haru, and Musica/Haru from what I have seen, though.
Does anyone know where I can get ahold of an English version of "Shizuka na Yoru Ni," the song that Lacus sings on Gundam SEED? 'Cause I've tracked down the Japanese version, but I kinda like what I heard on the dubbed episodes.
Been working on a couple of my fics the last while. Mostly, I've focused on a Gren + Vicious x Gren (Cowboy Bebop) one-shot from Gren's POV, though I'm outlining another fic of this pairing (it's the bestestest!) that is an mpreg! *cheers* Grassy luffs her mpregs!
Working on a Hisoka + Tsuzuki (Yami no Matsuei) one-shot from Soka-chan's POV, as well as fleshing out a Muraki + Tsuzuki (Yami no Matsuei) one-shot from Muraki's POV (creepy).
Then, there's my newest masterpiece that I'm attempting to complete - a Gravitation/Weiß Kreuz crossover! It's told entirely from K's POV and is Ryuichi x Tot (though there are a number of implied pairings, especially K x Hiro). *shakes head* Poor K. Owing Crawford favors is a verrrrry bad thing. But I really like the thought of Ryu-chan and Tot, they've got so much in common! First, there is Kumagoro and Rabbi-chan (bunny love!). Second, there's the fact that both of them are rather child-like. Third...well, they're both just so adorable! *snuggles*
Oh, one last thing before I get to the fic rec - does anyone know of any Weiß Kreuz mpregs? 'Cause the Grassy would be eternally grateful if someone did; especially if there were any Omi/Nagi, Aya/Yohji, Brad/Schuldich, or Schuldich/Yohji ones. *teary puppy eyes*
Fic Of The Moment:
When I Heard Your Voice - Well, it's my first FF8 rec (Seifer/Squall, of course). This particular fic is by sukunami, who happens to have a great many wonderful SxS fics; a good many of them are mpregs, rather like this one is. Wai! This fic in particular, though, is wonderful. It's an AU in which there is former-merman Squall, confused-but-helpful Seifer, and a matchmaking Selphie. Very kick-ass and a must-read!
