Eh, WTF?

[thistlechaser]

Um, did I miss a memo or something? When did *I* become a BNF in HP-land? It was pointed out that I'm in the second pool of names. I'm touched, but... BUH?

Ha, I'm up against cybele_san. Even I wouldn't vote for me over her! Wow, there are lots of good folks in that group; they must have just done a LJ search for people with HP listed as an interest or something, there's no other way to explain how I'd end up in there.

Oh well, silliness.

I should probably feel guilty if I'm thinking slashy thoughts about a couple of 11 year olds, right? In Hikaru no Go there are these two boys, Shindoh and Touya. They're always trying to beat each other at Go, but there's just so much emotion between the two of them every time they end up in the same place. There's no way a simple board game could explain it all -- things nearly *vibrate* when they're together. It's the oddest thing, they're so young (I believe 11, but maybe 12 or 13?), and it doesn't feel exactly sexual (non-sexual slash?), but there's something going on between them for sure. No way they could elicit such emotion from each other otherwise...

Well, you modded hp100 for a while. That's service to the HP community.

True, but when I think of BNF, I tend to think of people who have written or drawn stuff that everyone knows. That if BNF X put posted a story without a name, everyone would read it, recognize the style, and say "Hey, isn't that a BNF X story?".

It's nice that they included me, but I think they stretched "BNF" a little. :)

Perhaps it's 'cause there's fourteen letters in "thistle_chaser"? That's quite big.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Oh thank you. You made me snort/snicker out loud at work. Hee!

:)

Ahhh...wait till you meet Waya ^__^ I love Waya. And, as much as I will agree that Hikaru and Touya do have really strong feelings about each other...I just really don't like that pairing. Weird, ain't it? ^^;;

You've seen Naruto, right? Sana and I were comparing Naruto and Sasuke to Hikaru and Touya. I think there's a slight difference in their rivalries, but it's nearly the same thing. Both characters need the other to motivate them to get better.

Eh...I'm supposidly a BNF as well. How do I figure out who I'm against?

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

I think we're against each other as well as everyone else in our group? I only skimmed it though, so I could be wrong.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

I've seen (and love) Waya! He's got such attitude.

Naruto the series? No, not yet, though it's on my list. Or is there a character named Naruto in Go? If there is, I don't think I have...

[ladycosmos.livejournal.com]

I love Waya *_* He's probably my favorite character. Or he's tied with Hikaru.

Naruto the series. I haven't seen much of it because I haven't been able to download it -_- I'll need to fix then when I get back to school. And catch up on TeniPuri. I mean!! New Chibi ep!! XD

Re: Hikaru no Go, I'm trying not to spoil you, so I'll keep my comments somewhat vague, but they um, get older. ~snicker~ Anyway, the chemistry between them is just amazing, and emotionally...um, yeah, just wait till you get to the end. I still haven't found anything comparable in another series.

Would it make you feel better if I told you that there's a rather large following for that pairing? ~grin~ I personally enjoy their relationship on both a platonic level and on a slashy level, and somewhere in between as well. ^_-

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Eee, I can't wait to see! And now that I'm finished with BTing Whistle!, I can actually start downloading again. (Uploading to the max kills my download to the point of even web pages not loading.)

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Eee! Did you see the chibi ep caps?

http://www.livejournal.com/community/tenipuri_yaoi/115357.html?style=mine#cutid1

They're so wonderful and so insane! Hee.

[ladycosmos.livejournal.com]

OMG!! YES!! XD And Atobe!!

I never thought it was possible for that boy to out-gay himself but he did! And Tezuka...with the shoulder thing! XD Chibi!Yuuta! XD I want that ep and I want it now!!!

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Yes yes yes! And I want the rest now, too! Get translating, people!

Can't... keep... waiting!

[ladycosmos.livejournal.com]

SaiyaMan should have it for d/l tonight I think. *agrees...can't keep waiting*

[ex-milkthist86.livejournal.com]

Well I think you'd make a fine BNF. I mean, *I* know who you are, which is more than I can say for some the other BNFs listed. The only thing you lack is a personal horde of fangirls. If you like, I can be your posse of one ;)

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Hee! That sounds like a plan! Milkthistle, you're now commander of my posse of one!

Rarrr! Watch out world! Here we come!

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

*cheers!* All the more reason for wanting to be able to leave work and go home. :)
