OH BOY COMMENTING FROM ACROSS THE LIVING ROOM. ALL THE EXCITEMENT.

Ahem. Now that I'm past that...I did actually come here to say something.

My LJ friend who watches No. 6 is light-frost, in case you are interested. I can friend-matchmake you or whatever. She mostly posts RL stuff though, as opposed to fandom.

I am high on not sleeping and I just want to keep typing. But I have nothing else to say.

How sad is it that in like two weeks I can't comment across the living room at you anymore? :(

I wish I could keep you too! I would rather live in collapsed blanket floor land with you than all by myself on the twelfth floor. Sadly Knox is not in DeKalb.

We are so good at being bad at sleeping!

Also commenting mid-talking! Winning all the things!

ugh i need this week from hell to be over and i will totally rewatch no. 6 right along with youu (i would also write all that fic about nezumi's gender if i didn't have this massive insecurity about getting EVERYTHING WRONG)

i'm always reluctant to rec fic because it may not be what the other person is looking for but idk if you have read this piece about make-up!artist sion and androgynous supermodel!nezumi -- it doesn't explicitly deal with his gender identity but i there's something very fluid and seamless about how it reads

also one day i should probably talk about tiger & bunny (this really ridiculous superhero anime i watched last year) because i thought they did a pretty great job having a canonically genderfluid character who is also a person of colour. there were some cliches in there but the character still came across as written very sincerely to me rather than gimmicky. i'm just remembering now because i read some interesting fic for the series the other day--though it will probably make little sense out of context for ( ... )

this week is already halfway through!

oh I did read that and it was SO LOVELY. and it was all UST-y in the fun way. aaah.

ooh, I've seen Tiger&Bunny around, but been unsure about it (but there's giant robots from what I can tell so I don't know where my reluctance is coming from, because giant robots).

Damn, I need to create a "to watch" list, you know? There's so much I'm behind on.

And yeah I will probably try to write about Nezumi's gender someday and then probably never post it (like everything else I write) because of HORRIBLE FEAR. Ahaha. But I mean, yeah, as said, that's sort of run-of-the-mill for me.

you could try to write about it and f-lock it or something? hah well obviously you don't have to but i'm intrigued/curious (and i feel you are probably much more competent in talking about gender and DOING IT WELL vs. me ( ... )

maaaybe. I could try. I really shouldn't right now, though, finals are just around the corner.
and jeez to I have a lot of feelings about Nezumi just completely unashamedly walking around, being Eve, and probably Sion being sort of "...uh??" and Nezumi/Eve just giving zero fucks. and the community they live in near Sion's mom's house is just kinda like 'hey Sion who's your hot girlfriend is she Nezumi's twin or what" and Eve is all 'bitches please, I am Nezumi, but only most of the time. Right now I'm Eve and I'm way more fabulous than you' and then the townspeople concede Eve's fabulousness and the end.

uh wow I don't know what that is. me being tired mostly.

AHHHH, No. 6, I remember watching that. It gave me all the feelings, and all the characters were complex and well-drawn, and their interactions together were great.

Right? I was talking to M about how I wanted Nezumi/Sion/Safu, because she was asking why fandom hated Safu, weren't most fandoms all over the threesome thing?
And I mentioned how I didn't know about the rest of the fandom, but I wanted Nezumi/Sion/Safu a lot, because, among other things, Nezumi and Safu's interactions would be SUPER COOL. They have so little opportunity to interact on the show.
And then I mentioned how Nezumi and Safu were kinda-sorta-maybe related and she just went EEEEEW.

oh wow that got really unrelated

but yes, the characters were so good I just want all of them to interact with all the other characters. Mainly, I want Safu to interact with all of Sion's West District friends.
