Mass Effect has made me love my Xbox360 even more. Shepard can be played as either a kickass male or a kickass female, and if you choose to play him/her as a Paragon (aka the goody two shoes route) he/she still comes off as incredibly kick ass. And well, just... I already can't wait for part two. Seriously.

Also, the D Grayman Anime is surprisingly good for an adaptation for a long running action type series. And the filler episodes are actually good and not boring. More anime could learn from it's example.

The Sengoku Basara Anime was good too, but it was obviously based on a video game and aimed more at fans of said game, as it could have used more episodes to expand on certain plot elements: Keiji negotions with Motochika and the others, a little more character development for the Oda forces and a tad more Ieyasu among other things. Still a lot of fun though.

I love my xbox 360. And I love Viva Pinata. So cute.

Still can't believe that I didn't end up buying a ps3. Ah, what can I say, other than that Sony keeps dropping the ball?

Oh wiki, don't be lying to me when you say that SW3 is now going to be out for the PS3 and PS2 as well as the Wii. It's not nice.

And Koei, about DW6: Wu looks like they joined the circus. No really. Sun Jian and Sung Quan are hot though.

Here's another Doujinshi post from me.



Title: Ho no Ji
Artist: Unknown
Circle: Unknown
Characters/Pairings: KanetsuguxMasamune and MagoichixKeiji
Notes/Warnings: The KaneMasa stuff is really genish while the MagoKeiji stuff is a little more obvious. It's all incredibly weird crack near as I can tell.

Edited to fix a few links and to add a title. Thanks turdburgler for the translation.

No more fluids/food near the computer, because I DO NOT want to buy another new keyboard. Though I do like the fact that this one's keys have the different little short cuts printed on them.

But, yeah so not doing that again.

I have been 27 years old since this Friday. Please stop with the old jokes family. I'm sure I'll feel old at 30 in a "I've really existed this long, wow" way.

Also, on the reading front, "Bridge of Birds" is one of the best books I have read in a long time and actually had me tearing up. For those who don't know me, I'm not a cry at movies type person. Maybe a slightly choked up person, but not teary eyed. So, if something does make me cry it usually says something. Also, I think I that "Kushiel's Avatar" is the best book out of Carry's Phèdre Cycle. Phèdre is a lot more likable when she's ten years older and Carry has a gift for action. I still don't actually care for her sex scenes much beyond how they serve the plot/character development. And Imriel was adorable.

Video Game front. Persona 4 blows Persona 3 out of the water. The fact that you can have S-Links with your male party memebers and that you don't have to date the girls to max out theirs is a vast improvement. Plus, the ending is still utterly beautiful.

DW6: Special... Well, we'll get further in that. All I'll say is this: Koei, when writing married couples, please have the male half remember that they're married and not just the female half. Really. And did you have to turn SSX into a valley girl? A cute valley girl, but still...

Happy Valentine's day Lovers and Single people alike~



And on a totally unrelated note: you know those blank comments people leave when they just want to speak with their icons? How do you do that? My sanity would really appreciate it. ^^;

1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Put iTunes or equivalent media player on random.
3. For each song that plays, write something related to the theme you picked inspired by the song. You have only the time frame of the song: no planning beforehand: you start when it starts, and no lingering afterward; once the song is over, you stop writing. (No fair skipping songs either; you have to take what comes by chance!)
4. Do 5 of these, then post


Fandom: Samurai Warriors/Warriors Orochi
Pairing: MasamunexKanetsugu
Notes: crack pairing combined with some short songs combined with the fact that more often than not managing a three line paragraph a day=colossal writing effort on my part resulted in… well this. Also I slightly cheated. I paused some songs at the start so that I could look up the lyrics, because I have a lot Jpop/rock songs on computer. Also, some of these pieces have nothing to do with the songs at all.

Also, the last piece has mentions of suicide, because it's kinda canon for Kanetsugu and… Dir en Grey has this really disturbing fascination with things like suicide that makes me wish I'd never understood what their lyrics meant… >.>

Title: Tension
Characters/Pairings: One sided Cao Pi/Nagamasa
Prompt: 012. favoritism
Summary: Nagamasa's new lord is showing a little too much interest in his personal life. Takes place between the first and second games.
Notes: Warriors Orochi gave me the really strong impression that Cao Pi actually thought very highly of Nagamasa, which pinged in a really strange way to me, since Cao Pi doesn't seem to impress easily, especially with goody two shoes types. Also, I think Cao Pi becomes an idiot when faced with pretty things (as proven by his first meeting with Zhen Ji).

Just a few MasamunexKanetsugu doujinshi I thought I'd share. All of it's cute fluff with a tiny bit of angst thrown in, so work safe.
