Bored now.
Headed to The Pit.
ETA:
*go to SDK section*
*see what may be a promising, shiny new Kyo/Yuya fic*
*click*
*sob at the typos and grammatical errors that make your worst typo ridden post look perfect*
ETA 2: Benitora/Sasuke? WTF?
ETA 3: I am amused by this disclaimer: "I do not own Samurai Deeper Kyo...if I did, Kyo would be my personal bed slave." Not as much so by the story, though(one of those that goes "oh, well h gets grabby without permission, I bet he does EVERYTHING ELSE without permission too.)

Yukimura has another major cause in his life to take up some of his passion; in addition, he's just not nearly as "broken" as Gojyo is.
Looking back on some of the things I wrote here, I'm sorry to have clogged up your LJ with them. I think the issue - which is all me, not you - is that I had what were essentially slash fantasies long before I knew there was such a thing as slash fanfic. It was such a relief to discover that other people enjoyed this idea, and that I was not this lone weird psycho. So I think I over-react when I hear someone say "I don't see why people have to slash."
And also pushing this issue is just going to make it harder for me to ever get you to read anything I write, even if I try to write something to your taste.

Date: 2007-12-28 08:10 pm (UTC)As far as slash goes...I actually had the opposite experience myself. Spent years and years thinking I was the only person in the world who didn't like to slash anything they came across(and have, thankfully, since learned that not every person who likes slash will just slash everything in sight) until I finally found canon fans a few years ago, and found people who were more of the blending of both, too.
Really....I think it just comes down to if it appeals to you or not. It's why I can never get far into yaoi series, no matter how interesting the story sounds...the success depends almost entirely on how interesting you find the idea of guy/guy, and since that doesn't instantly appeal to me, I get bored. On the flipside, I actually do often enjoy canon undertones of slash. especially the ones meant to poke fun at things, such as the Himawari/Watanuki/Domeki thing in xXxHoLic, which is so blatantly poking at the shojo standard of the hyper girl hopelessly crushing on the perfect boy, despite the les obviously perfect but clearly much better suited for her boy she clashes with. Only, you know,m with some gender alterations.
(and no problem, of course...and I have read 2 of your fics, after all...)
