Recommending and Angel 5 and Sanzo's ankle socks

[louiselux]

I'm doing Saiyuki recs for try_this_fic this month and it's made me realise how pairing-centric my reading truly is. Not that I mind.  Only, I want to rec a range of stories that might appeal to different tastes, which is tricky if I don't read Sanzo/Goku much or other, rarer, pairings.  I feel bad about just wanting to rec all the Hakkai/Gojyo stories I have ever loved, ever. Which is a long list.

Angel season 5 - I just finished watching it all and whu?? It... with the things and Fred and it and then they --submarines-- and Wesley and Lyndsey then... it ended! *head spins*

I loved it, felt weird about it, thought some of it was plain stupid and mostly desperately fucking wish they'd made series six.

In other news I'm only holiday all this week, so rejoice with me! Earlier this week I optimistically invested in a new bikini, a stylish reclining sunlounger and a large bottle of Pimms and finally the BBC says the sun is actually going to come out, so yay.

It's so strange how inspiration arrives. I had a image of Sanzo's bare feet. Just, you know, being feet, not doing anything lewd or anything and suddenly I need to write something about them, or about him and his little personal habits-- mindless tasks like getting dressed and all those little comforting sensations and habits people take for granted and never really think about. I'm sure the manga showed him wearing little black ankle socks once. Actually, this might be where the idea came from originally.

Well, I'm doing recs for this month, but the fics can be written any time. I think I'll carry on with my Hakkai/Gojyo spree, then. XD
