saiyuki_time's current challenge is to write a fic showing "what it is that Sanzo finds so fascinating about his newspaper."

My immediate thought is that he stashes his porn magazines in it, but that's a sentence, not a fic. *g*

For a one-sentence challenge I'd like it to be pithier though.

But he always looks so grumpy when he's reading it. So one sentence leads to another.

Maybe even his sex face is grumpy? *g*

Smooth flesh stretched taut over supple muscles, an erection that reminded him of art deco skyscrapers, a smoldering come-hither smile - Sanzo's groin tightened uncomfortably as stared at the picture of the man splayed out on the coverlet

You could always have the guys trying to figure out why he reads the paper so often...

Personally, I've always wondered how he *gets* the newspaper every day, considering that usually they're not in a civilized place where newspaper delivery might be expected to happen. I mean, didn't he have a newspaper when they were in a cave in the middle of the forest, hiding from Chin Yiso?

Hakkai: *mental breakdown*
Goku: *lost in the woods*
Gojyo: *getting lost looking for Goku*
Sanzo: Hmmm, looks like today is going to be foggy with a 80% of angsty backstory. Good to know.

I imagine that when he can't get a new paper he just rereads old ones as an excuse not to deal with, look at, or talk to the other guys. *g*

Only 80% possibility of an angsty backstory?
