On friendship
As usual, the Nayami woke up later than she wishes and is thinking. I wanted to go see Tom this weekend, but I'm leaning toward cutting my hair because it's ugly and I want to look like I sane person when I go to see Rache. I get to see Tom next week anyway. I wish I could get more into this season's anime. I keep hearing great things about some of the series, but I'm so unmotivated to give anything a real chance. Might do that after work today.
Also I cry when authors decide they have to make the standard seme!character more vulnerable to allow the other to top, my usual bitching against Nozumi of Gundam Wing fandom.
Again, I worry about my place in fandom. I've never been big on smut, and it seems hardly any story out there exists that doesn't go into some variety of sex. To me, reading most sex is terribly boring. I'm a cuddles and smooches sort of person. For characters less likely to cuddle and smooch, I want basic self-exploring interaction. I want friend fics that aren't so gung-ho about "I like him, does he like me waaah." But they don't exist! Or even the unrequited lover who feels from the distance. I'm a sucker for this. But every time I either get smut or something that will eventually evolve into smut. Naruto, KH, Avatar and any other fandom I'm into at the moment, why don't you attempt to be original for once and ocnstruct something that isn't pairing-oriented and is just about people and how they interact with each other. I know I've joked about my own OCs and their relationship compatibilities, but within the story I like them as just really strong friends (such as Luce/Erik, Ty/Nick and Luce/Taves). I think just for an experiment I'm going to write something pure-interaction and without any overt romantic overtones this weekend. It's difficult even for me, who loves it, because fangirl mentality has warped me. Such is why I keep forcing myself to not pair up San and Ari.
