*inhale* I did something at work that was technically wrong of me, but then it turned out to be the right thing to do after all. I still should have brought it to someone's attention before, instead of just signing off on things that
looked right. I was trying to be a big girl, but from now on I'm taking every little thing to the woman over me. She's going to be so sick of me. :p There by the grace of God go I. *exhale*
( In other non-sequitar news. ) Between last night and tonight I finished
Yellow, and you weren't kidding. 0.0 Unrequited love
and later requited love + guns + boy!kissing = KL. Hehe. It's actually more like an adult version of the
Getbackers than anything else. For being my second official yaoi series it lacks the elegance and depth of
Antique Bakery, but it has it's moments where I have to laugh out loud and then, you know, there are those scenes. ;) I also really like how the mangaka uses the clues from the individual jobs to play into their relationship:
Taki: I was reading about the "Tower of Babel" just now. God's anger confounded the human language, and ever since, men can't communicate in one tongue."
Goh: Interesting, but that won't be an issue between us, right? I understand your words, and you understand my words. So long as "I Love You" is communicated, that's enough.And....cue KL becoming a HUGE FUCKING GIRL.
I wrote some Death Note today, which I fully blame on the fact that I was listening to Alkaline Trio and reading
Yellow on the way to work. (Yeah, I read at stop lights. *shifty eyes*) This was one of those weird ones that wrote itself. It came out linearly and almost complete, which is entirely different from my usual process. Do any of you other ficcers ever do that thing? Where you read over something you've written and don't remember being the one to write it? That happens to me with everything, even things with my own characters. Hmm...
Anyway, here be fic!

You told me once I made you smile
But we both know damn well I didn't
I'm not much of a jester, but I'd test poisoned food for you
Your majesty, you're royal blue
I'm royalty, my king of pain
( That it had happened once before was bad enough, but Raito was damned sure that it wasn't going to happen again. )
