So, for those of you who have been bugging me to do a "real post" …umm, I suck? That being said, here's me going off on a nice long rant about the latest SV episode "Progeny." In particular, about how NOT evil Lex is. (This was actually a heinously long comment to something bagheera_san said, but neechan ordered me to write it up as it's own post, so blame her! ^_-)

( Define 'evil'…= )

So, 'nother fic, 'nother pic. This one was done as a really quick sketch at work that I was happy with and decided to color. The scene/lines are from kantayra's awesome, HILARIOUS fic "Project Overlord".

( Clicky for the picy )

So, I have realized recently that I am currently fanning on more series simultaneously than ever before. Worse, I can break them down neatly into wait times, ie I have my weeklies, my monthlies, my bi-monthlies, and then the series (mainly books and a few movies) that may or may not have a tentative release date somewhere in the nebulous future.

( A breakdown of what's been consuming my life as of late when I'm not teaching English, hanging out or working on my webmanga )

In other news, got the second update to the webmanga up today...

Anyway, I keep MEANING to post about Gion matsuri and all that craziness, but to do so I wanna also post pics and I just haven't gotten around to sorting through all of them and such and then resizing them and uploading them and er...let's face it, I'm LAZY!

Instead, I'm going to go into utter squee mode about the latest manga series I'm reading, コーセルテルの竜術士物語. spacealien_vamp recommended it to me months ago, but because the original magazine it was published in went defunct, I had a devil of a time finding the first four volumes, but I finally did and OMG SO CUTE! I mean...BABY DRAGONS!!...well, dragons that for the most part look like people (in permanent chibi form) plus cute pointy ears, and horns and tails and one of them always has adorable little black wings and a sweet little ukebishonen (he'll be an uke once his seme grows up cause I mean maybe it's terrible of me but I can't help OTPing him with said black-winged, oh so grumpy but too cute little shadow dragon who may only be a foot tall now but is so TOTALLY gonna top) who's taking care of seven of the little dragons and er...lots of cute funny wacky hijinks ensue. Really, it's just too cute for words. Course the latest volumes are published by ZeroSum which means I've now entered no-furigana territory which is making the reading a bit slower and yet still so worth it cause, yes, it really is just. that. cute!

I promise, I'll have a more relevant post soon, I swear, I just had to gush, gomen...

Also, as an extra random side-note, seeing funny movies in Japan is just CREEPY. I mean, they don't laugh, they don't make a f**king SOUND! We're talking the newest Pirates movie, second day it's out, the theater is sold out, and even the climax fight, I mean, the WHEEL stuff, not a SOUND, a peep. Their expressions don't even change. The only laughter we heard was the group of six gaijin I was with and the few other gaijin dispersed throughout the theater. I mean...just BIZARRE!

Is it by chance the sound of my soul being sucked away by Ouran Host club...oh indeed it is. Oh NOES! (Soul not the only thing being drained away, oh my poor poor wallet cause wouldn't yah know it that the local Animate would have to have all these pretty goods for the series right out in front on display and I mean, how could I RESIST! And following that, of COURSE I had to run over to the nearest used bookstore and also purchase all the manga...And all on my lunch break, too. Spending even as I'm earning, oh the vicious vicious cycle)

In other, non-fan related news..um, I...err...wait, I have a non-fan related life? Er...I think...maybe? I'm tired, and sick, and had a long day at work (see, WORK, proof I MUST have some life...) So, life, work, been enjoying the teaching more now that my new schedule has started up, have a good mix of classes, wide range of ages, so that's all well and good. And have both the 'rents and utopiantrunks comin' to visit in the next few months, hazaah! Also, going to Korea this coming week for a few days, reeeally looking forward to that. w00t to another stamp in my passport *bounce bounce*

Been doing a lot of drawing lately as well, getting back to work on my manga after long last. I may yet actually get this thing to the point where I can post it...wouldn't that be a *shock*?!

And thus concludes the very-irregular vaguely semi-annual not-very-informative how's Gnine's life going update.
