01:39:37: @raane The traffic cone sounds super familiar! That's probably it! Remember the title/mangaka, by chance?
@raane LOL with your traffic cone reminder, I just found it too XD Dear god, and it's otherwise so flowery and pretty.. O_O
Thanks to my enabler raane reminding me of ass-soda manga's further contents (hint: TRAFFIC CONE): it's Takakura Row's Sokonashi.
YOU'RE WELCOME.
01:44:04: @jadeprince Wouldn't look to Hollywood for a good adaptation--I'd lay odds on the main character's homosexuality getting written out -_-
02:04:05: @ TheJadePrince He has more power as the writer of an originating work in choosing to whom/if he wants to option out his story.
02:05:21: @ TheJadePrince Exec producers don't, generally, have much power over a film's direction (unless they've got a ton of clout, like JKR).
02:06:34: @ TheJadePrince So hopefully if it gets optioned, he'll either sign over to someone who'll respect what he was doing with the character, or-
02:09:52: @ TheJadePrince Yep. Til then, his best chance is (like Gaiman's Anansi Boys) refusing it to producers who'd take out the minority elements.
02:10:38: @ TheJadePrince And I haven't, though the writer/synopsis sounds super familiar. Think I've had it on my "to do" list from a while back ^_^;;
02:18:08: @ TheJadePrince Don't think I've ever read a superhero-centric story that wasn't in graphic novel form :O (Would also be a sweet adaptation!)
02:24:50: @ TheJadePrince Ah, another title not to rec to some of the yaoifen readers of Mahou Shounen, then XD
02:28:10: @ TheJadePrince YOU'VE GONE MORE THAN FIVE PAGES WITH A CUTE MAIN CHARACTER: WHY ISN'T HE GARGLING COCKS YET?? :O
02:30:30: @ TheJadePrince (Oh man, I clicked the "1 new tweet" bar thinking it was you, and it was a tweet from the DalaiLama. Confusion ensued.)
02:37:47: @ TheJadePrince ALL I'M SAYING, YOU KEEP FEEDING THE TWEEN FANBASE, YOU'LL HAVE TO SELL IT SOMETIME! (By "it" I mean "your creative vision".)
02:42:12: @ TheJadePrince And doesn't it just figure that it's the underage, probably mostly straight girls doing all the grumbling about lack of m/m..
02:51:04: @ TheJadePrince One assumes such readers appreciate stories where there may be characters who happen to be gay, vs. yaoifen's Gay Characters.
02:52:24: @ severedscythe Wah decided not to spam my tweetlist with spoilers so I deleted 'em, but I'm glad you piped up. I was quite beside myself! XD
02:55:28: @ TheJadePrince Can't speak from firsthand, but I figure that's it on the nose!
02:57:33: @ TheJadePrince On one side, appreciation of that touch of real cultural experience; while on the other side, basically fetishism >_>
02:59:06: @ TheJadePrince I'm sure many readers who don't identify as gay enjoy MS just as intended (case in point) but yeah, maturity or something..
03:02:45: @ TheJadePrince Really any fandom in the internet age: always someone decrying your lack of producing something they can get off to.
03:04:49: @ TheJadePrince BY THE WAY, IS IT TOO LATE FOR ME TO REQUEST FUJITA!SQUIDxRAJI SEXY TENTACLE RAEPS TO BE AN EXCEEDINGLY PROMINENT PLOT POINT?
03:06:44: @ TheJadePrince I SIMPLY CANNOT STRESS HOW IMPORTANT TENTACLES AND MIKE'S 16-YO MOOSECOCK IS TO ME oh god I made myself a little sick..
03:12:25: @ TheJadePrince TEEEEASE. (Though seriously I am excited to hear that. I adore that fabulous mofo~!)
03:25:04: @ TheJadePrince Ffff if you didn't find joy (geeky or not) in the characters you were writing, they wouldn't be as fun to read either ^__^
03:34:58: @ TheJadePrince YOU DARE PROVOKE THE VIOLENTLY QUIVERING LOINS OF THE BEAST
03:38:33: @ TheJadePrince (You know what, even if it's just a doodle at a con table, this will probably happen XD)
03:51:25: @ TheJadePrince INDEED. Then it goes up on y!Gallery with a link to Mahou Shounen: "Can't get enough tentacles? CLICK!" Everyone's happy!
04:00:09: @ TheJadePrince (But I knowww, I don't do the online galleries anymore cuz I can't time manage and I only see you/Kim like twice a year T_T)
04:03:07: @ feikoi I'll have to ask, but it *might* by "Pleasure Fortune" by Shimada Hisami, if this description can be trusted... http://bit.ly/eP6Cvr
04:14:13: @ feikoi That WAS the most disturbing, though for this genre, "the one with the gross rape politics" doesn't distinguish it from many others.
04:14:54: @ feikoi Now, "the one with ass-Cokesplosion followed by traffic cone", on the other hand...
04:19:46: @ TheJadePrince Getting too many mental images. I'm going to bed before I decide that a squidpeople/St.D gangbang needs to happen RIGHT NOW.
04:21:35: @ TheJadePrince ..which isn't to say it never will. (But srsly, got a morning class, TALK TO YOU LATER fabulous darling~)
17:31:15: Back from a Blockbuster sale, Mom got me the 9 DVD.
Mom: "I remembered you saying you thought it was good!"
Me: *thinking back on lengthy rant about how 9 COULD have been good but just got muddled and lost* "Y-yeah! Thanks!" >_>
@severedscythe [Gifted with Twifail] Oh. Oh geez XD Man, at least I like looking at 9.. (Hilariously, my cousin's pre-teen son LOVES the Twilight movies >_>)
20:00:42: Just got a new (used) computer from the school's A/I department. No idea what I'm doing. Let the lumbering through setup begin!
@rodolphe Specs: HP-xw8000 32 bit workstations / Processor: Dual Intel Xeon Processor, 2.8 GHz, 512 KB Cache, 533 MHz Front Side Bus / RAM: 2 GB / Hard Drive: 36 GB & 72 GB Ultra320 SCSI Drives / VidCard: nVidia Quadro4980XGL.
No idea what this could support; hopefully it'll be sturdier than my laptop in handling Maya, at least.
23:30:21: @raane My only wish is that they'd gotten on those ostriches to flee.. well, that, and didn't have crap casting and writing.
