tanithryudoSpent most of yesterday at the bookstore. Read all the OMG volumes they had there so I can write Urd better for YvtW. Am such a geek. *facepalm*
Read Petshop of Horrors #4... so... very... slashy. Leon = denial boy... soooo totally in denial. And D? Yer wearing your heart on your sleeves. How the mighty (er... muy-cryptic and mysterious) have fallen. Heh. Also, the volume brings up the Number Of Compromising Postions Between D And Hot-Looking Guys to 2. (Three if we count D & Leon, but that was at D's instigation, while the others are by the other char's instigation.) I wish I had the book so I could scan in the pic... But,![[insanejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/ij-userinfo.gif)
cashew? - next time you go by the bookstore, check out the "Dracula" chapter in Vol. 4, when Leon bursts into the petshop and sees this caped bishie dude pressing D down to the couch and trying to bite (kiss, nibble... *wink*) his neck. And later D says the guy is a bi. *g* Methinks PSoH is much like Demon Diary in that the subtext is so loud that it's pretty much canon-slash, though still shonen-ai instead of yaoi.
Also read This Scepter'd Isle by Mercedes Lackey. She seems to have several giant hardback novels out recently. Scarily productive. O_O Anyways, the novel seems to be set in the past of her Serrated Edge series, during the reign of Henry VIII. Serrated Edge means that the sidhe/seleigh/fair folk are involved. I have no idea how accurate she's got the history, but the story itself is pretty good. There's both courtly intrigue/politics and action. Plus the Bazaar of the Bizarre seems like a really cool thing to incorporate into YvtW somewhere. *g*
Hm... what else... flipped through a few volumes of Flame of Recca. Tokiya isn't as hot in the manga as he is in some of the anime pics I have of him. Strange. Maybe the way they did the hair had something to do with it. Didn't see the next volume of Rurouni Kenshin at the store, which sucks. *shakes fist at Barnes & Nobles* Aaaaand that's about it. That I'm willing to post public anyhow. Look for more under friends lock.
