Grimmjow Jaggerjack's Donut
...If you're not on my f-list, I can't really explain why this came up tonight, except to say that you'll know in a month or so, and that it's nothing to be waiting on tenterhooks about. But at any rate, I was complaining to
rachelmanija that I couldn't draw Grimmjow from Bleach as a really threatening guy, because in my mind he's this fifteen-year-old combat-happy boy who'd be perfectly safe to leave with your fourteen-year-old sister if you ahd a highspeed net connection and a subscription to World of Warcraft, because he's such a dork he wouldn't even notice her.
Rachel, naturally, pointed out that she was of no help whatsoever as she hasn't read that far in the manga yet (or seen that far in the anime), and the only association Grimmjow has with her is with Mister Donut, this chain of addictive doughnut makers.
It all has to do with the trip to Japan. We both started collecting these figurines in the series called Bleach: The Styling, which features five characters in school uniforms, and Grimmjow in his hakama and short jacket (Is it almost a bolero?).
Rachel is also addicted to Mister Donut, and when she discovered a machine that would give you a Mister Donut phone charm, she immediately dropped 100 yen on it to get herself a tiny plastic doughnut. In our room in Kyoto, we set up little dioramas of our figurines, and she decided that one of them needed to be holding the doughnut. And, naturally, the only one that was able to hold the doughnut was my Grimmjow (Rachel hadn't bought hers at this point).
Grimmjow's all "HAY BABY CHECK OUT MY DONUT! IT'S BIG!" and Matsumoto's all "I don't know, man, I've seen a lotta donuts in my time..." (Another version without the trash in front of Grimmjow, but which loses Matsumoto's expression.)

And then a couple of days later, I get Renji, who's out of focus, but pretending not to be impressed by Grimmjow's donut. And I can't help but notice again that Grimmjow's got his hand really deep in his pocket there. I think he's just really impressed by his own donut.

This is Rachel's collection. The little thingy is from the Bount arc of the anime and comes with Hitsugaya. Rachel and I are both still missing Rukia.

And here's Rachel's collection again, with the addition of Hisagi ("Mr 69") from a compeltley different set of figurines. Out of focus, but it's a wonder my camera was taking any pictures by this point.

I take the "art" offer and raise it a "fic" offer!

You sure there's nothing between them? It looks like Grimmjow's chest and Matsumoto's chest have the same rash.
Rachel and I are both still missing Rukia.
Who isn't? When I was in Japan, I saw some Bleach merchandise, but little or no Rukia. After she disappeared/lost agency in the anime and came back, I rejoiced. But not for long. She still is largely MIA. Damn it.

Your as bad as me when it comes to posing my plushies: http://yankeerose69.livejournal.com/629785.html#cutid1
Though I got a shitload more plushie pics I need to get off my ass and work on posting them. Too cute not to share with the masses.

I tend to set up little scenes with any collection of toys/figurines I have at hand, irregardless of their origins. Atop my desk hutch at work right now is plushie Byakuya, looking grim and sad. Even the plush beanie bunny and the hot-pink teddy bear can't comfort him, poor guy ... .

Why are Rukia's so hard to find? You'd think they'd be everywhere all the others were...

Those are much happier possibilities than the one I darkly suspected: Somehow the manufacturers didn't think she was popular enough to create merchandise for.

I wrote half a novel at Mister Donuts. I DEFINITELY need to start a going-to-Japan fund so I can get myself a donut charm.

Staring.
Staring.
HOW does she get her shirt to mold so perfectly to her rack?
And it's obvious she's not wearing a bra.
Implants?
Mystic energy?
Awesome figurines!

Glue? I thought models in real life did that. I forget what they use for glue, though. Maybe surgical glue, aka crazy glue except maybe without toxic solvents and such? (Apparently crazy glue is good for repairing pet tarantulas and some small furry pets. Seriously.)
What I want to know is why she doesn't get slapped in her own face when moving up and down so fast.
