Suddenly... Famous!
THIS! Isn't it awesome? I'd like to say, "I never thought I'd see the day when someone was asking for one of my fics in the comm." But, it's a lie. I've been waiting for it with anxious anticipation for quite some time now. Ha ha ha. Because I'm vain. But, YAY!
In fact, I've also joined a new RP group recently and it seems as though both of the other two members I've spoken with had already seen me around in one place or another. The mun/Gojyo-player saw my Sanzo on nitro_dressing and complimented my performance. The Hakkai-player has been reading Constrained Desire (and oh, Gods... I haven't updated that in over two months now. My poor readers probably think it's dead. It's not really, I've just been wounded, without a computer, working on other fics, and downright lazy). But she's also a 383-er, and I will finally get to RP my favorite pairing~! Along with some 353, and perhaps a 358 threesome, which is just awesome. I'm so happy!~♥
Speaking of pairings, I think I have officially become desensitized to 393 after reading this fic. Normally I avoid reading that pairing as much as possible, just taking the occasional foray into it's art and fics from pure curiosity and not much else. But I was told about this fic, which is an interesting psychological play on the characters being stuck watching alternate versions of themselves who are leading happy, normal lives. It's heart-wrenching at times, and I really do hate the way Sanzo is treated in this fic... although, I should note that his responses are very IC all the way through. What really had an effect on me, I suppose, was the way Goku is portrayed. He's mature in this fic, and in a way that isn't OOC at all.
So, I suppose I can see it now. I'm no necessarily saying that I'm going to ship it or anything, but... it no longer offends me like it used to. I think I will probably always prefer them as having more of a father/son relationship, and of course nothing will ever replace my 383 OTP. Ever. But... 393 no longer squicks me, at all. In fact, I'm thinking right now that I might actually want to try it once or twice. I'm horrified to think that I might actually enjoy it. But, I always did like pushing my limits.
