a cat may look at a king

I thought I should put up photos, every now and again . . . didn't really feel like doing big long photo posts the way I did once upon a time for my China trip, but single ones ever now and then I think I can manage.

So!

Cambodia! When in the world did you go?^^

I love the picture of the cat and will keep the recommendation of Pandora Hearts in mind - is it somewhere readily accessible...?

Summer of 2008, it was. Never did manage to write much about it, alas, so it's likely that it slipped by.

As for reading Pandora Hearts, it is licensed in English; I started reading it at the bookstore. And then when I ran out of books there (which happened fairly quickly; they only had the first two) I went home and Googled "read pandora hearts online." So yeah, readily accessible. ::coughs::

. . . yeah, should maybe have put a warning of some sort before it. Ah, well, too late now . . .

. . . and come on, it's MUCH more evil this way. ^_^

Pandora Hearts! <3 That series, I swear it gets more awesome with every chapter. It also keeps persuading me that characters I didn't initially like are SECRETLY AMAZING. :D :D :D

Cat picture is fantastic. XD

I would be interested to know which characters you're talking about, and what your thoughts on them are. I'm so happy that you've written fic for Pandora Hearts! I'm saving them to read until I'm caught up with the manga . . . I'm on chapter 43 now, so I'm getting pretty darn close.

Truly he was a fantastic cat. Well suited to his throne.

Oh, Break is probably the most shining example. Until there was some backstory on that guy, I had a real problem with him. Not sure why, looking back on it. I guess all the crazy didn't seem justified.

But no. It's totally justified, I see that now. IT IS MORE THAN JUSTIFIED. o_O

Similarly, Lottie--and the Baskervilles in general. They get more disturbingly likable every chapter...and Lottie's slowly turning into one of my favorites. Of course, anyone who's bitchy to Vincent is pretty much automatically one of my favorites. XD

Who are your favorites? Apart from Gil, of course. Lol, Gil. XD *pats his poor head*

Hope you enjoy the fic! :D

Break . . . didn't bother me at first, but I wasn't really interested in him until his back story started coming out. After that he became many times more awesome. I mean, usually I find that a mysterious character is very intriguing until I figure out their past, and when there's nothing more to reveal I get a bit bored with them. With Break I actually found he was a lot more interesting once I had a full grasp of his history.

The Baskervilles so far are not particularly intriguing to me-- mostly because I can't understand why they're so devoted to Glen. Lottie is the most interesting of all of them because we've seen more of her and her story than we have of anyone else. It's interesting that the Baskervilles do in fact care about each other, but that alone isn't quite enough ( ... )
