Happy and yet sad

[louiselux]

Things that make me happy:

saiyuki_manga has some images from beautiful Salty Dog 5.

The latest chapter of Saiyuki over at radiofreebanri, where it looks like it turns into a fanfic. I'm sure I've read that one where Nii takes them all back to Houtou for experimentation. Ni turns their respective powers to so much nothing. How do they even fight him, at all? I have no idea.

Oh, just fyi, there is a new challenge over at saiyuki_time - this week, it's about clothes.

daegaer insisting that I write a robot au. Robot tennis au. Rafa Nadal is discovered to be a tennis bot in the middle of the Wimbledon final. I know, stop looking at me like that! She thinks I'm already writing it. I suspect she is already writing her OWN robot au.


Things to make me sad:

R Fed lost his match today at the Cincinnati Masters, where he should be winning. Or, if not winning, at least in serious contention. I wasn't able to keep track of the scores, from nerves. God. You know, I am suddenly learning how people get totally over-invested in sport.

Oh yes, I think I've read that fic. Awfully sexy, that. XD It makes you wonder if Minekura browses fan fiction for ideas, as CLAMP seems to.

Oooh, I wonder if she does? It would be tempting, if I were her.

yes, mosh and anthena8 have been putting up lovely pics of salty dog 5.
indeed, something to smile about.

alas, i cant see radiofreebanri, never having been granted access.
ah well, i suppose one cant have everything...

robot au? brings me memories of trek, or that super old classic, lost in space...

Did you remember to put youkai world reclamation in your userinfo?

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Yes, you need to put youkai world reclamation in your user interests. But I think the new chapter should come up on saiyuki_manga quite soon.

Did you start off as a Trek fan? I'm curious now...

re: Robot AU -- I don't care which one of you writes it, but I want to read it!!

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Tennis bot by day, sex bot by night.

WRITE IT.

I want the tennis robot AU! Pretty please with Fedal on top?

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Ahahaa. I love your icon, how appropriate. Also, don't ask for these things because it is far too likely that I will write them! I'm already on the brink. Tennis bot Rafa, with his faulty circuitry that makes him fall in love with his rival instead of wanting to beat them. Oh noes.

I kind of winced when Gojyo got his shaku-jo broked... that's gotta hurt.

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Ow, yes, his chains all melted away. It must've at least hurt his manly pride if nothing else.

I'm wondering how the boys are going to get out of this one. Hazel's expression in the last panel was just... omg.

[lady-ganesh.livejournal.com]

It'd be nice if Hazel did something!

[louiselux.livejournal.com]

Yes, it really would!

He seemed so surprised! "An experimental subject, moi?"

Now I hope he gets to team up properly with the ikkou and they wreak their revenge. Somehow.

If Djoker hadn't beat him today (**** you, Djoker! GET OUT OF THE WAAAAYY!!!) I would have sworn on some fairly sacred graves that Rafa was an alien.

I, for one, welcome our new World Number One overlords.

Mmmm hmmm.

I suppose he had to get beat at some point, and Rafa clearly has had some of the stuffing knocked out of him, even just mentally. I think because of getting enough points to finally become number one. It's like when you get in view of the finishing line and the energy just leaks out of you.
