That was wonderful. Thank you.

[wordsofastory]

#^^# Glad you liked.

Spot-on for them both, a wonderful intro to the series and a great look at the pairing. I'm terribly fond of the two of them together and this has just reconvinced me all over again.

I'm incapable of watching the anime without yelling at the screen, "Therapy! You NEED to be in therapy!"
Hee hee hee!

[wordsofastory]

Aww. I'm so glad you liked it.

And see, you think I'm kidding about that. Because I would never actually lecture fictional characters on my TV about their need to see psychiatrists, nope, not me...

[mistressrenet]

Yeah, me neither. Never yelled at a TV screen once, not me!

...it was just that when I went looking for angst and drama and humor and romance, I didn't go looking in Japanese cartoons.

That describes me right now, but I'm sure I'll get there one day! Probably soon, too. Really enjoyed reading your essay

[wordsofastory]

Thanks! :)

And if you're at all interested, I'd really recommened watching the Possession vid. It's an amazing vid, beautiful and angsty and a great introduction to the series. And besides, if you don't like it, how long does it take to watch a vid, anyways? I realize you can't download it unless you have an account at animemusicvids, but if you IM me I can send a copy to you. I'm on AIM as theBrigdh

And if you don't want to, no big. Just trying to pimp out my fandom. *grins*

[zebra363]

I'd love to see Possession, actually. It got a glowing rec on crack_van not long ago. After I read your essay I went to animemusicvids to sign up, but there's a 2 week wait before you can download anything - plus it's so big I'm not sure my connection will be able to handle it.

I'll email you (haven't used IM in years and can't remember how!)

[wordsofastory]

*coughs embarrassedly*

Email is fine, but I seem to have accidently deleted your email before I could respond to it. #^^# Because I really am that clumsy. If you could try again?

There's another great review here, but it has spoilers for the series.

[quixotic_sense]

A few years ago I'd never seen an anime, nor did I have any particular desire to do so. It wasn't that I had anything against them, it was just that when I went looking for angst and drama and humor and romance, I didn't go looking in Japanese cartoons.

*mocks you thoroughly*

wonderful introduction to tsuzuki/hisoka *otp squee*, rushed or not. you'd brought up things i'd barely thought about, particularly in terms of tsuzuki's characterisation. i connect better with hisoka, but now i think i must write tsuzuki. someday.

and thank you for reccing my fic.

[wordsofastory]

*laughs* I know, I know. I feel like such a newbie sometimes. And crossover week on fuda_100 confused me throughly; I think I knew all of two of the other series used.

Of course I recced it! It's so wonderfully characterized and poetic, and it's got those images in it that just last, even when the entire rest of the fic is forgotten. I am never going to get the dirty hotel room scene out of my head, I will have Alzheimer’s and still remember it. It's that perfect.

But thanks. I'm really glad you liked it, especially the Tsuzuki parts, since I just get Hisoka better, too. I didn't really understand him at all until I wrote him a few times, but I do love him.

A little late [okay, a lot late] to the party, but I just wanted to say: Fantastic!

I've been sort of hovering on the edges of this fandom for awhile, and recently read the giant comprehensive summary on crack_van wherein I decided that Tsuzuki/Hisoka was my OTP, without having seen any of the episodes. Which I'm sure says various unsavoury things about my addictive!fangirl personality.

Anywho, this was really great as a primer for why an actual fan loves the pairing [and it didn't have spoilers! Joy!] Although I suppose now I have to track the canon down. Oy.

Wonderful job! :)

Everyone keeps raving about this 'Possession' vid, but I can't watch it. Woe. Do you know if it's available anywhere else?

[wordsofastory]

*grins* Hey, late is better than never. Much better, in fact, if it gets me new converts to the fandom who I can poke until they write me Tsuzuki/Hisoka fic.

But thank you for your comments. I'm glad you liked it. ^^

Alas, no. That is the only place. However, if you'd like me to, I'd be more than happy to send you the vid over yousendit.com. I just need an email address.

[danibennett]

Much better, in fact, if it gets me new converts to the fandom who I can poke until they write me Tsuzuki/Hisoka fic.

I admit, that's a pretty devious plan. Although, can I request a stay against poking until I've seen/read some of the canon? :D

It was very good. The thing I love about this comm is getting to see other peoples' love for their OTPs really shine through, and that's a big part of what I enjoyed here.

REALLY?! I shouldn't be bouncing up and down with glee but oh -- I am. Thank you so much, I really really appreciate it. lessien[at]gmail dot com. Thanks again!

[wordsofastory]

I admit, that's a pretty devious plan. Although, can I request a stay against poking until I've seen/read some of the canon?

Weeeeeell... okay. I guess. If I have to wait, I will somehow manage. *uber-dramatic sigh* ;)

Awww, thank you. #^^# I'm so glad you liked it; writing it made me really nervous. I was worried that having an anime fandom after all the cool TV/movie ones would seem silly, or that I wouldn't be able to do a good job. So I'm so happy it worked for you!

And sent! Let me know if there's anything wrong with it, or if you want any other videos. I am always happy to pimp.
