The plan for today: write fic I began while in Tokyo; What actually happened today: wrote ONE paragraph... watched (read distracted by) TxN videos, watched (read distracted again by) BuriMyu clips, read your lovely TxN fic. *sigh* Need more days in the weekend.

I like these slice of life fics, because we kind of get the craziness of the shows and the behind the scenes and the like from personal witness of it, reports and DVD's, but life beyond, and more the deeper root of their connection to one another, it's kind of a mystery except for what we write and read and hope are things that can/could/have happened in their lives.

Favorite line/part:

Tuti looks down into Takashi's hair, and then up and over it-a random ad for English lessons, a commercial for a travel agency, complete with images of lush beaches and palm trees, miles from this crowded train--and when he turns his attention back to the man next to him, Takashi is leaning over, and speaking quietly into his ear, hand clutching at the strap of Tuti's messenger back to

It totally makes sense, what you said about the dating desert and all of that. ^_~ I don't think I ever really thought of it that way before, but you're totally right about how in usual circumstances, working together as a couple isn't always the best idea, but with them, you're totally right--the time they spend together on set, or at rehearsals or backstage, those are probably some of the most meaningful, just because there isn't that much time outside of that for them to connect. It sort of gives this all a new meaning, for me, thinking of it like that so... THANK YOU. For giving me a fresh look~ :D

I'm really glad you liked the fic too, and actually that paragraph on the train with the messenger bag is one of my favorites too. <333 So it made me happy you pointed that out. XD I love those little intimate moments though, and I think I love them even more when they're happening in public, you know? *_

...I do feel bad about distracting you though. XD;;; I'm very curious about this fic you started in Tokyo too. *__* Is it senshuuraku fic? XD

Don't feel bad... I think I left my muse back in Tokyo :\ And oddly enough, the fic has absolutely nothing to do with shnshuuraku, which for me isn't much of a surprise. I get inspired by and about the oddest things sometimes, and never the obvious ;D

[analineblue]

Mou, I'm sorry to hear that about your muse. :/ I've had that happen before too though, where I come back from a trip and just can't get back into it. Hopefully your muse will come back soon though~ ;__; I'm curious about these strange inspirations!

You finished it! It's been a long time coming but...I totally love it :D I read this on my cell phone on the way to work (that's how impatient I was XD) and was just grinning the whole time :P

I love that they both had their worries, but that they were just...completely unfounded, and how desperate Nagayan was to work with them again is it 2015 yet? because I just...I REALLY got the feeling IRL that he was just so good with all of them. Even watching the backstages, god--it sometimes felt like Daiki and Nagayan really WERE Shiva and Pasupata *___* And he already had these great relationships with Tuti and Eiji, and well, ANYONE could get along with Wasshi :3

It reminds me of the comment from the chick in Nagoya who thought Nagayan was part of *pnish*...because he just fits, and I think this fic goes into the "why" of it really well.

I will be reading this quite a few more times today, I can feel it XD Great job~ :D

[analineblue]

FINALLY. XD;; In the end what tripped me up all weekend was the title, but I eventually just said screw it, and... posted. :P (Hopefully the title isn't TOO lame. *hates* XD;;)

Anyway~ :D I'm really glad you liked it. <3 And yeah, I definitely get that feeling too, that he really did do a good job of just kind of seamlessly falling in with all of them. And I think a lot of it has to do with the relationships he had with everyone coming in, and then the rest of it is just kind of that magical talent he has to make everyone happy all the time, you know? ^_~ But yeah, I can absolutely see why that girl thought he was a regular member. kdljflkdjfjk GOD, I want him to work with them again. *__* (That was my other motivation here, I think, convincing myself that it didn't have to be a one-time thing. ^_~)

I love that icon! :D

[molkita]

reading your fics feels so good ♥

“No way,” Tuti says, getting a mouthful of Takashi’s hair as they stumble a little, laughing. “By the way, I call the first bath,” Tuti says confidently.

Oh Tuti <3
They sound so very comfortable and happy.
I love it.

[analineblue]

XDDD Well, reading your comment feels pretty good too~ <3

And I'm glad that they seemed that way~ Comfortable and happy is definitely what I as going for here. :D

I'm glad you enjoyed it! ^_^
