I don't know how many of you are following [livejournal.com profile] campfuckudie, but if you aren't, you should be. It's a crack multifandom RP, but with absolutely wonderful writers as the players. The multifandom aspect means that pairings like Buffy (from BtVS)/Kon (from Teen Titans) and Elpheba (from Wicked, the takeoff of The Wizard of Oz)/Alice (from Alice in Wonderland) not only seem like interesting ideas, but they make *perfect sense*.

The crack aspect means that if you only want to follow a few characters, or only have time to read it now and then, you won't have to worry about missing out on major plot twists.

I've been following the Saiyuki characters, because they just recently collected all four (Hakkai was the last addition, and makes me so happy; everything he says is so perfect and Hakkai-ish I just want to flail at him. They're all excellent, but he's new, so I'm still amazed). Their latest story line is that a planetary alignment or something caused Gojyo, Hakkai, and Sanzo to revert to Kenren, Tenpou, and Konzen, without memories of the last 500 plus years. Which was interesting enough by itself, but they changed back at different rates, causing strange pairings to meet.

I have to share these threads with you:
Kenren and Hakkai meet and Kenren and Hakkai talk some more. Why isn't there more of these two's interaction? Normally, my interest in anything can be measured by how much Sanzo is involved, but I deeply want to see a fic exploring these two. It's crack, yes, but it's such fascinating crack.

And even better: Konzen and adult!Goku meet (and Goku gets off the funniest opening line ever) and Konzen and adult!Goku are cute at each other. Okay. Okay. Okay. I had not realized how badly I wanted to see this until I read it in [livejournal.com profile] campfuckudie. The world is a lesser place in that it does not contain fic with Konzen and adult!Goku meeting. I need more of it.

So, that's my advertisement for [livejournal.com profile] campfuckudie, because it deserves more fame (and also my shameless plug to try and get people to write these ideas for me). Someone should go play characters from YnM. I was going to app Hisoka myself, because he's totally the appropriate age for camp, but then I realized that I have no time ever. But I'd like to read someone else play him!

I've been gleefully watching the insanity between the FMA and Firefly semi-casts, mesself. (And woefully sad Bill & Ted are there no more.) I've seriously considered applying there, but trying to formulate an app, let alone get into the feel of a character, it's tricky - talk about taking fun seriously.

Staying IC can be a real challenge, for sure.

I've caught a little bit of the Fireplay players myself- Captain Mal is great. And yeah, it does look a bit nerve-wracking. Everyone does such a good job.

I don't normally follow the community, but that was really entertaining.

Oh, my. Those scenes were hilarious. Now I'm dying to see other scenes like those.

I'd never come across that particular community before. After I read this post, I went to the com and read some serious crack between the baby tentacle monster and Mello concerning Mello's missing crotch lace. I take it that the community is constantly filled with crack?

The userinfo sums it up nicely, but yes.

*grins* It's so much fun.

And yes, yes it is. That's part of what I love best about it.

That commmunity is still going? Wow.

I used to play Nagi from Weiss Kreuz in there... for about a week right when it first started. And then I realized that I am not capable of being cracked out for that long, nor of staying in character.

From: [identity profile] wordsofastory.livejournal.com
Yep. And it just seems to keep getting bigger. Lots of people have joined.

And heh. I don't think they've replaced you yet, actually. I remember seeing someone saying that they wanted someone to app Nagi in the new round.

ALL WE DO IS BEG FOR NAGI. TOT AND I. ALL THE TIME.

We need a Hisoka SO BAD. You know Hakkai is Mello and Umeda too, right?

From: [identity profile] wordsofastory.livejournal.com
YOU DO. I want to see him come and be snarky at the zombies and bond with the American shinigami.

And I knew Hakkai was Umeda (though I don't know anything about that character's canon), but I didn't Mello was the same person too. Cool!

He and George would get along so well.

Umeda's journal has some canon info-- the character's pretty cool. XD

Oooo, thank you. That sounds wicked interesting- I may have to start reading the manga.

I am addicted to Saiyuki. DAMN YOU WOMAN. I finished Vol. 2 today and Vol. 3 was at home. I /raced/ back to retrive it.

What will I do after Vol. 3? Which is half finished already...

*dies*

MWAHAHAHAHAHA! *wicked grin* My plan is complete.

Well, obviously, we need to hook up so I can get you the rest, except that I'm working every day the rest of the week, so um, it might be a while. I can send you scanlations if you're really desperate.

But tell me, tell me! Which one's your favorite character? And have I told you mine? I probably have, since I'm obsessed, but could you guess?

OY, YOU, OY.

I will check your msg and call you back. I figured when you called so late that you were working. ^^;;

Hakkai is still my fav. He's just so lovely to /look/ at -- how could you resist? ^^ And I thought Sanzo was your fav -- powerful dude with chip on shoulder who likes to be alone and doesn't like to/can't trust others. Wait, are we still talking about Yami? :D

P.S. Teh slash is so canon. ^^;;

Yep. Because I am working FOREVER AND EVER, WITHOUT END, GOD I AM SO QUITTING THIS JOB.

Hee. I would have guessed Hakkai. Though they're all terribly pretty. And yes, Sanzo is mine (I do not have a character type, shut up, I so need a icon with Hisoka and Sanzo on it).

P.S. Dude, I know. It's not even subtext. And it keeps getting more canon as it goes.

GIRL, SHUT YO MOUTH. I DID NOT SIGN UP TO WORK 40 HOURS A WEEK ON WHAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE MY FREAKIN' BREAK, AND WHEN I'M NOT WORKING, I'M WRITING A BLOODY ESSAY FOR A BLOODY FELLOWSHIP, AND I HAD STUFF I WANTED TO DO THIS BREAK OTHER THAN WRAP ENDLESS BOXES OF CANDY WITH CRAZY BITCH WOMEN TALKING TO ME, I AM GOING TO GET AN ULCER. I DID NOT EVEN MANAGE TO *START* CHRISTMAS SHOPPING UNTIL TUESDAY, AS IN: YES, FIVE DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS IS WHEN I GOT TO START LOOKING FOR PRESENTS BECAUSE I WIN AT LIFE.

Which, uh, by the way, you have to tell me what you want.

P.P.S. OMG, did you make that? That is the best thing ever! They're even wearing the same shirt! Sanzo and Hisoka are snarky crossover best friends. Or possibly they'd be too much alike and hate each other, but *I* love them both. Thaaaaaaaaaaank you! *glomps*

...woah. Someone needs some eggnog and a nap...

Oh man, are we exchanging gifts? Hit me up for my b-day instead; it's so close to X-mas anyway. You are coming to my as-yet-unplanned party, are you not?? ^^ (Jan. 12 is teh big day. :P)

P.P.S. For you, m'dear. It was too funny to pass up. And yes, they are totally wearing the same shirt; this amused me to no end. You are welcome. Have a happy, as the Brits would say. ^^

Heeee. Thank you~! *uses icon*

New Year's Eve -- Nothing so far, b/c I am a boring, boring person. You?

Icon love!

P.S. Mirrormask some time this week? I'll call you today. ^^
