Wild Adapter and other things

louiseluxA miracle - Forbidden Planet in Brum was actually up to date with its manga, so I got Wild Adapter vol 1 on Friday. Yay for translations! I think that Komiya seems even more in love with Kubota in translation. The little cameo by Komiya's girlfriend is great - telling him to at least shut up about his boyfriend while they're having sex, so she can concentrate. Also, woe. Poor Komiya. I also twigged stuff about Kasai that I never did before, ie, him being a mahjong fiend. And I loved Kubota disappointedly thinking that actually he'd really wanted a new piece of gum when Mr Sanada kisses him.
I have no idea what George Takei is saying, because I have no earphones and the office is full, but he looks like he's just made a good point.
I posted another timestamp story last night, a tiny sequel to One Summer, here. It has sex and happiness and was very fulfilling to write. When I wrote the original story, I planned to expand it into something much longer, something maybe even novel length and that never happened. I think I need to make another to do list.
I watched Primeval last night, the new ITV rival to Doctor Who, even though ITV insists that it's not. It had anomalies and giant centipedes and spiders. I had no idea what was going on and apparently there was someone from S Club 7 in it. Lots of people were pretty though, even though many of them were also annoying.

I'm undecided about Primeval. I wanted to like it, but it feels to me as if they have a list of things that will appeal (Sassy blond? Check. Moody guy in leather? Check. Cute dinosaur? Check). But there have been tinsy winsy hints at maybe an arc and Meaning, so I guess I'll give it another week before I consign it to the bin containing Lost and Torchwood.

I knew the event planner and he got us special pre-event passes. George Takei was just walking around, so we started up a conversation with him. We ended up just chewing the fat for about 1/2 hour. What an interesting person! Very intelligent, thoughtful and down-to-earth... Made me a bigger fan of his. ^_^ ♥

Ahem... anyway.
When I wrote the original story, I planned to expand it into something much longer, something maybe even novel length
That thought is just too happy for words!! Maybe the plan might come back into focus sometime? *grin*
So, I have a question (and I'm not too sure it is an on-topic question, in fact, it isn't on topic at all). I was wondering if you wrote a series of drabbles about a Saiyuki AU (not Nick/Tim, this one is different). It's one where Gojyo and Sanzo work in a detective agency, and Hakkai shows up to hire them to find his sister. Hakkai shows up dressed as a woman, as a matter of fact. They find her at a mental institution, but it's too late, she kills herself. Sanzo picks up Goku there, and they all end up together.
If this is not your fic (even though I was so sure that you wrote it) then I truly apologize for wasting your time. I'll just have to take this question to the saiyukiyaoi community...
