Samurai 7

Watched the first two episodes of Samurai 7 last night. It's interesting. Basically take the original movie, turn it into anime, bishounenize about half the samurai, add an OSC, then throw in evil aliens and mecha.

Like I said, interesting. Not all bad, but it would be better if they'd stop getting happy with the CG. The Angsty Bishounen seems cool, if only b/c he's decently old (and a weird sort of pretty. Not really bishounen pretty, just pretty. very weird). I wish the OSC would take a long walk off a short pier, but when don't I want that?

Back to writing I go. Which reminds me.

Would possible participants be more interested in a fluff contest or would a fluff challenge suffice?

Heh, I definitely have plenty to do while we're at Michigan. I offered to write whatever pairing on greekgodslash since I've been such a bad mod. I seriously didn't think more than three or four would reply. Not that I'm complaining, I love this...erm...fandom? Not sure what you'd call it. But so far this is what I have to write:

Hades/Orpheus for onewingedhyu
Cerberus/Narcissus for rykaine
Poseidon/Proteus for kiyoshi_chan
Zeus/Ganymede for wanderingscribe
Hespheros/Phospheros for aquablastoid
Apollo/Ares for starparty
Thanatos/Hypnos for klarisaonyx

Anyone here want to add to my workload? And currently I have sketched out my plans for "12 Days of Christmas Slash" (or whatever I'm going to call it) and I'll probably launch the fluff challenge Saturday, after I've organized things a bit more (and right before we leave for Michigan).

Yes, I'm avoiding writing. But never fear, I have plans for tomorrow and I was up 'til almost four and slept 'til almost noon so I'm going to be up for a long, long time >_
