International Saiyuki Week

I don't think [livejournal.com profile] coffeeandink quite expected this to happen when she mused it must be International Saiyuki Week, but the meme seems to be hitting the friendslist like wildfire. So - in honor of International Saiyuki Week, change your icon if possible, and post something Saiyuki-related.

ETA: I'm collecting International Saiyuki Week posts in my memories.


So bye-bye Mello for a few days in favor of Mr. Cranky. I do have a Saiyuki-themed picture in the works, but with no idea of if or when it'll get finished. So until then, you're stuck with ...

...a Telophase poll!

[Poll #694825]



If you haven't read Saiyuki, or just want to read about it, there's some essays linked in [livejournal.com profile] coffeeandink's post up above and there's an essay about it in [livejournal.com profile] rachelmanija's recent post here. If I haven't pimped these fics to you in your own journals yet, [livejournal.com profile] edonohana has a small series of lovely Saiyuki fics titled Five Incarnations That Never Happened posted right now.

Oh, I'll solicit bribes think about it. ;)

What do you want I wrote all that lovely fic, which you presumably enjoyed, with one more to come!

What I really really want is Death Note fic, although it might be a tall order since you're bogged down in the Neverending Corporate Story Arc.* Otherwise, we'll see. But of course!




* My interpretation for the boringness of that section is that it was the point where they signed a long-term contract and so she had to stop the story dead for a while to expand it to the sides, so it could be longer. But I could be wrong.

Perhaps I'll jump back in at # 50, as you suggested. Where are the rest of the downloads, again?

No guarantees on fic, because I've never written for it before so I don't know how it will come out. I'll definitely give it a shot, though! Although nothing could possibly be as good as the doujinshi where Light watches L lovingly licking the whipped cream off a pastry, then hits himself in the face with a pie. "The cream, Ryuzaki, the cream! Just focus on the cream, and do that thing you do!

Right this way (http://www.sfolse.net/random/dn/).

I so want to know the rest of the things in that doujinshi. I'll have to repost and see if any of the new readers wants to give it a crack. [livejournal.com profile] m00nface is giving the marker book a go and has posted one bit already (http://telophase.livejournal.com/465866.html).
