So I got off work early today, b/c IKON is cheap about overtime (unless you're my roommate).

Anyway. Was on the bus today, finally got a seat after a few people got off, and was idly looking around when I saw a guy holding a book. Couldn't see it well, but I knew that cover damn it, and the little bit of the author's name. Sure enough, when he finally moved a bit, I saw he was reading a torquere book ^_^ I never see people just reading slash, homoerotica, etc. I figured I was the only one who dared read them on the bus. The book in question was It's How You Play the Game by Willa Okati. I, myself, am not a fan of Okati -- but I know she's popular and well-loved, and it's just plain cool anyway to see someone else reading such books ^___^ He was like late forties to fifties, tired as anythihng. Poor Guy was struggling to stay awake, I think the book was the only thing helping. So go Torq and Okati, though you hardly require my two cents.

On that note, I'm going to go make myself finally wash those damned dishes so I can spend the rest of the night writing guilt free.

Cool! I still feel a little scared to read slash in public, funny how that works, hetero books no matter how explicit the covers is ok, but two guys or gals kissing and I make sure to hide the cover. *shakes head at my own stupidity*

It's always weird to see someone reading a book you've read or a genre you like reading. Weird, and really cool.

^__-!!

Hahaha! I've only just recently met two different people who read slash, and the conversations dancing around the topic for a bit there was hilarious!

OHAI REALLY becuase I read my slash in public all the time. The Chinese girl in the back row? Reading something on her hand phone and giggling every few seconds? Yeah, that's me.

If her jaw hangs open just the tiniest bit and she stops blinking for more than 10 seconds, it means she's reading some really hawt porn.

Also, IRL I am very boring and annoying. Alas. Just ask Goblins. I can't hold a a decent or relatively entertaining conversation unless I'm hitting on you at the same time or making dirty jokes. It's all very sad.
