Mostly about the picture.

[kageotogi]

I totally yoinked this link from kaliflwr, because it's an adorable, adorable picture.

Click Here.

For those of you who are wondering, the kid is Tohma's. (Before you get all confused because "TOHMA NEVER HAD KIDS!!!", here's why: (1) at the end of the manga series, Tohma and Mika are blessed with their own little "bundle of joy" and (2) the arrow thingy above Tohma's head clearly states that he's the father, goddammit, and you'd better believe it.) Things I love most about yon picture? Shuichi looks reeaaaally worried or weirded out or something, and Eiri is all "Ha, my sister's child likes me best!"

Besides, it's cute. Don't knock it. ^_~

Came up with a rather odd idea for a published work today, while I was at work... I wouldn't really even have to write anything! It involved a collection of fun little stories from mothers and fathers and... Okay, so I won't go into details. But, since I don't have kids myself (and for good reason! Noisy little buggers!), I'd either have to wait until I did have kids (bah!), write under an assumed identity (Sylvia Stevens, mother of nine, 32, and unemployed), or sound like an idiot who is leeching the stories off of other people and putting them in a collection (you know, like the Chicken Soup people used to do). So I just decided to scrap the idea altogether. Go me! ^_^

*squeals* It's adorable!

Though, from my understanding of the series (never having seen or read it), I would think that Yuki Eiri would be the last of the characters to smile at a baby. But perhaps I didn't understand the series as much as I thought I did...

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

Whether or not he's the smiling type depends on whether you read the manga or watch the show. ^_~ In the show, he doesn't really have much of a light-side to him: he's always grumpy and mean. In the manga, he's a bit of a cornball... He has a full range of emotions and a really weird sense of humour. Manga!Eiri would definitely grin at a baby, if it was being cute enough. ^_^

ma~an, Tohma's a smug bastard. (Tatsuha's head just exploded at the thought of he and Mika breeding. the world doesn't need more Seguchis.)

hm. i didn't think that pic was on her site the last time i visited. *puurrr*

[tabbyphobos.livejournal.com]

What I want to know is who dressed that poor kid. He/She/It's gonna need therapy when he/she/it's older.

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

I'm sure Tohma did it... Inflicting his fashion sense on the poor child! That poor, poor baby!

[tabbyphobos.livejournal.com]

...Tohma dressed up as what appears to be a blue cat sometime in the manga? ...maybe it's time I went back to reading manga...

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

*giggle* No, no blue kitties for Tohma. It just seems like something he'd think up, doesn't it?

[tabbyphobos.livejournal.com]

Yeah, most likely. I mean, he's the closest one that would dare to scar the child by dressing him/her/it as a blue cat and let the kid figure out for himself/herself/itself whether it is truly human or not.

"But it's cuuuuute!" Yeah. Definitely some expensive therapy will be needed later in life. Maybe some medication as well.

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

LOTS of medication.

Oi, Potter. How's sunrise by the veranda sound to you? We need to let this love/hate/ravish relationship thrive, you know, and all that fanfiction has us doing the ravishing bit at least three times an hour... We're behind schedule.

[tabbyphobos.livejournal.com]

But all that fanfiction depicts school like they do in American movies and sitcoms: classes are voluntary, not compulsary. Sunrise sounds good then. Usual tools and supplies?

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

Of course. And add a towel to our usual list of supplies. I get the feeling we'll need it to wipe off all the... er... dew. Before classes start, you know.

[tabbyphobos.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, no time for proper cleanup. Towel it is. And probably a mirror too, because you'd probably let me go to class without telling me I have, um, dew on my face.

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

Why, Tabby, whatever gave you that idea? Of course I would tell you about the... dew. After all, we wouldn't want Goyle to interrupt class by offering to lick it off for you now, would we?

He adored the love note you "wrote" him, by the way.

[tabbyphobos.livejournal.com]

I think it would be less him interrupting class with that and more you and me interrupting class by vomiting at the suggestion.

Oh did he? Should I be expecting a delivery from him? Maybe something we could put to better use?

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

His idea of a good gift is an umbrella. If you do end up with a delivery, it'll probably be an anonymous deal... And I'll tease you about it for days on end, until everyone gets really sick of hearing whatever song I make up for it.

Or the class interrupting the class by smirking and giggling at your face.

[tabbyphobos.livejournal.com]

Maybe you could mention in the next letter... good stuff. I get to leech off Goyle, you get more interesting teasing-song material... everyone wins!

Guh, that would give me another damn detention.

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

You relish those detentions, I'm sure. ^_^

[tabbyphobos.livejournal.com]

Oh yes. Either I'm with a psycho or I have Snape leering at me. Just lovely. Absolutely peachy.

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

Aa, I understand. Those detentions with Snape must be torture for you... Given your undying love for him and all that.

[tabbyphobos.livejournal.com]

I'm really not into prison sex. Really. And this isn't a subtle hint for some sort of roleplaying in the near future. It gives me the willies. And not the good ones. *shudders at thought*

[colonel-sho.livejournal.com]

I wanna know what it means *whines* Why is she teasing us? *sniff sniff* Still an adorable kid though. Even if it does have grey hair. o.0

I think Shu dressed it! Kitty Shu. Let us not forget that fettish.

[marsgirlly.livejournal.com]

XD It's hair must have come from the geiser >.< Or However you spell it.

Anyway-

Neko >^-^< Meow Meow!

It's very cute indeed

[colonel-sho.livejournal.com]

He doesn't have any hair...

[marsgirlly.livejournal.com]

Think: If he DID have hair, what color would it be? Eh? EH?

Oh whatever -_-'

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

Green. *nod nod*

[marsgirlly.livejournal.com]

Or Black. Or Brown. Or Blonde.

Why the hell do all the Uesagi's have different hair color? LOL!

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

I think the hair is from Tohma's side of the family... I never believed for a moment that blond was his natural colour!

[marsgirlly.livejournal.com]

Haha-He copied Quatre because he thought it would look nice.

There's a Gundam invasion of Gravi! First Quatre, then Allenby(*cough cough* Claidi). When will it end?

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

Oh, forgot to ask... You want to know what what means? The arrow above Tohma's head says "Male Parent" (ie, "father"). I'm not entirely sure what the box on the lower right says--I'm still busy translating. My skills aren't exactly 100% right now (or ever).

[colonel-sho.livejournal.com]

Oh no I know that silly! *bops* I was just wondering why she's still doodling Gravi piccies when there's not going to be anymore Gravi.

[kageotogi.livejournal.com]

I was just wondering why she's still doodling Gravi piccies when there's not going to be anymore Gravi.

Mmm. Well, you know, the manga series never officially ended... It just sort of stopped. ^_~ Besides, maybe she just likes to dream stuff up with them. Have you ever written a story and then wanted to use an idea or a character from that story in something else, years later?

[colonel-sho.livejournal.com]

Point.

*sigh*

She's a big meanie.
