Personally I think it's too soon after the rare pairing meme. Still, I like reading memes. I'll put here the links to the threads of the requests I liked, so that I can check if they got written later and actually remember what I liked in the future.

The point of this meme is 'something that squicks us on', which seems to be interpreted as different kinds of sexual perversion. (And I was thinking that all NC-rated fanfiction falls in the category. Seems I got something wrong, as usual.) Bonus point: they accept requests with people aged from 12 on, though so far there is not many requests with still not legal people.

The most of the meme is (as usual) occupied with Arashi requests with substantial addition of NEWS and not so many KAT-TUN requests. Then, there ara several Kanjani & Hey!Say!Jump prompts. As I don't usually read HSJ (maybe I will once they stop looking as cute children, i.e. in another 10 years), and the rest I'll read if I have too much free time (i.e. once I finish writing the thesis, translating things I'm (supposedly) paid to translate and watching old british tv-series), I'll move on to junior & sempai requests. Of which I see 4, plus 1 about the JE in general.

The only prompt featuring Kisumai is, probably, written by the same person who wrote TOKIO/Kitayama prompt in the last meme. Now it's Fujigaya/Kitayama and Kitayama gets hurt during sex. I don't like the prompt though it has some potential.
The Question? prompt is basically the collection of Question cliches and is funny to read in this way. Still, as the author of the prompt admitted herself it'll never get to be written, it looks like a prompt that was made to be made and not to be fulfilled. Moreover, I don't think the world really needs Matchy/Question? orgy XD But maybe it does.
I love the ABC-Z request, especially if it gets written with no sex in it (for some people 'no sex' may be a squick as well, so why not?.. xD). The prompt goes as 'Hashimoto gets called to Johnny-san's office alone and ABC worry about their baby', and I love reading about ABC taking care of their Z, so I want to read this! I see several variants of how it could be written, but my English (thankfully) fails me. So.
And then there is the TOKIO prompt which brings us zoophilia (Gussan/Bear), and with TOKIO fandom it may even be written, and written well. Or not. I have very superficial familiarity with the fandom, but they look like people who can do almost anything. In a good way.

The only other request I like is the all-JE request featuring the 'Leaders club' that, I think, was already mentioned (if not invented, though not written) in some other meme I read. Here the author wants the leaders to 'make pacts to do kinky things with their respective groups' and is very interested in Ohno being one of the main characters. I think this prompt is actually good, and if somebody who can write and can write NC actually gets her hands on writing it, it may turn out really funny, and interesting, and whatever.

It's interesting how 'joint program with the University of Turku' means that they come to us every month or so and we never get to go there. I totally want to waste my time by going to Finland! And I totally don't want to waste it by attending lectures in the same old university building I've been studying in for the last 7 years. 9 years if one counts preparatory courses.

Anyway, now I don't have a passport which means I can't get a visa which means I can't go to Finland... or anywhere else.

Btw, the lecture will be about some traditional cultural aspects in the politics of Korea. Idk what that means.

Jung (or maybe one of his disciples) said that introverts tend to resent things that are too popular or too well promoted. I guess that may be one of the reasons I'm looking for Hikaru Genji mp3s, while being too lazy to listen to Kanjani. That and Kisumai always referring to their dai-sempai and not having a discography of their own.

Dicsography copied from Wikipedia, all links lead to the posts (mostly locked) where people who are not me uploaded different albums. Hope I'm not violating anything (it's not re-uploading, and all links lead to the posts of the original (or the most original I could find) uploader...), but if I do and anybody gets offended, tell me & I'll lock the post for personal usage. I don't want to spend another day trying to remember from where I'd downloaded that wonderful song that went down with Windows or my laptop.

I've finished the translation that was due today (yay, only 20 minutes past the deadline), and I really-really-really hope that I didn't do terrible things with the grammar. There were lots of lists and I always forget which case I used with the number one listed and tend to finish in nominative. (Before I started learning German, I didn't even know cases existed!) On the not so positive note, my laptop is still broken. It managed to break itself (I'm not admitting to be at fault) somehow uncommonly, so nobody knows where the problem lies. Still hope it'll be mended, or whatever they do with laptops.
If I have to get a new one just after a year of careful using (not like I tried to kill anyone with it), I'll make sure it has a different label on it.
I get really attached to such things. It may be stupid, and I think it is, but for me it's more or less like a pet. And then it breaks, and I find myself crying because I don't know what to do.

I can't help thinking that there is something strangely healthy in johnies' boom. Groups of girls (and there always are groups, companies, circles of friends, or there is no fandom and no way to learn about the very existence of JE, let alone to understand what's so endearing in it) get together to watch, to adore in different, but mostly sexualised ways groups of guys, more or less talented and good-looking and very much unreachable (thanks to distance, language difference and culture gap). The healthy part of all this is, of course, not the variety of beverages and snacks consumed in the process, but the fact that there are guys that get sexualised, and they are more or less of the same age-group with the girls that adore them. Before that, I think, groups mostly got together to watch anime (forgot to mention that JE guys are allegedly of flesh-and-blood), or to watch girl-pop singers (I'm always happy to watch Christina Aguilera, though it's rather difficult for me to feel straight in the process or after), or to adore men of entirely different age-group (like... Mick Jagger? Freddie Mercury?). Well, maybe it was just my wise choice of people, fandoms and hobbies.

I was trying to imagine, to merge somehow the qualities I like in JE guys and caucasian faces. I was trying to imagine, if there were people who combined the traits I love certain Johnies for and lacked the culture gap. Or even held this culture difference, but it was less than with Japan. If there were such person(s), would I like them?
The conclusion I came to for now is: No. If these persons were male, I wouldn't. I like nice (in a kawaii way) japanese guys, I like them looking girl-like, I like them silly and adorable, but I love them from afar. If we lessen the distance, my mother culture stereotypes kick in. And they say: guys should be like this and not like that, and they should be able to hunt down a bear and build a house (never mind the 21st century...), and what you need to adore them for? XD I even think that even if my stereotypes (I like to think of them as a different entity, and I am rather afraid of it) were shown a JE guy with a dead bear at his feet <s>who would faint first, me or the poor guy, I wonder?.. </s>, they would still find something to complain about. XD

There's not enough Goseki fanfiction. =( The things I manage to find are mostly good (if not smut), so it's even more depressing there's so few. I like that he's usually written as a smart and calm guy, planning things out and talking about blackmail (but never actually blackmailing people, though I wouldn't mind). I like that he is cute and reasonably aged. I absolutely hate that there is not enough screen-time for him and not nearly enough fiction =((

And now that I'm interested, if there were much information, I'd move on rather quickly. As there is not enough... I'm afraid it'll become a soft spot.


There are quite a lot of entries and posts discussing "who is to debut next", mainly in the line of "Kisumai should" (and they absolutely must, I think), but as I was looking through one of such posts, I caught myself thinking: I don't want Kisumai to do the d-thing. I want Ebikisu (ABC-Z + Kis-my-ft2). Together they have 11 letters and 1 number for 12 members, several songs sung by members of both units together (though I'm not sure whether any of these is original), and a nicer feeling than any of the groups on its own. They can do more things together... people can write more fun stuff
It doesn't look realistic, I know. 12 members are way too many (though not really). And... well, it just won't happen this way.
But I still want it. Reasonable as ever.

I've found some repair service and even succeeded in convincing them to take my laptop in. Now I try my best not to think that they'll ruin it completely, because they may. They also may charge me ridiculously more than their work's worth and I won't be able to tell it.
The problem is they don't know what's wrong with it. (Good thing: they admitted it. Bad: I still want my laptop repaired and returned back to me.) It reminds me of a time our washing machine broke, and the repair services were all: well, you know, bosch (or should it all be capital letters?) breaks so rarely, so, when it does and is over its guarantee, you just go and buy a new one. Like I stow money under my bed to go and buy a new thing every year. I don't have a bed in the first place.
Want my laptop back. And repaired.

late night is good for thinking, esp as my computer just refuses to function properly, and half the time I just stare at the keyboard... trying to figure out what can I do with it not to contact the maintenance (if there is such thing as maintenance for computers here)
...
(please, can I reach satori instead?.. XD)

I'm making a journal to have an English-language account to comment from, and then I'm too lazy to keep it up. Logical, as always xD

Currently I'm re-watching 'Life on Mars' (I've been stupid enough to promise a friend "will write what you want" and not state clearly that I'm not bothering with the things I'm only incidentally familiar with, and now I don't want to back on my word for once).

Other that that I'm angsting that kisumai don't have some really good lj-community or site, so that I could just go there and have all the information I need, tagged properly and updated daily. Maybe they have, though, and it's just me not having found it yet.
As it's for me now, I have to go to takki.us to read about Tackey-falling-on-Kitayama epic.

I've deleted all that was written here before (not much, thankfully), and from now on I intend to use this account for link gathering (the main topic being johnies-inspired fanfiction) and commenting. I do not feel comfortable leaving comments from my other account, which is in the language not as common as English, and it gets complicated if I use one account for storing links on all topics. Moreover, this account is ancient, so it saves me from some ads (though not from the most), and it has really shot username.
English is obviously not my first language, and I don't think I'll care to spell-check and grammar-check all the time. =)
