Ok, I was pretty much useless all week. Didn't get any translation work done at all =_= And now I talk about Saiyuki stuff before I forget again. I keep telling my friends Gaiden 3 is out and everyone is so surprised. See below for evidence XD


Saiyuki Gaiden

I seriously seriously SERIOUSLY want the Gaiden volumes T_T I only have the first volume with the regular cover and I want a copy of the one with the different cover. Why are there different covers again?

Anyways, there is now a volume 3 of Gaiden ;_; athena8 was kind enough to post the covers over here (warning: very image heavy). OMG THE FRONT COVER WITH SANZO CARRYING GOKU!!! AND THE GOKU COLOR INSERT IN THE TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE!!!

And now apparently there are different covers for the Summer Ward Gaiden Vol 3. Links to cover pics posted by flemmings over here. Can somebody explain to me why there are two different covers? AND OMG THE BACK COVER WITH GOKU I WIBBLE :333

Minus Wave is currently running a gaiden fanfic contest and the prize for the winner will be Gaiden Vol3 T__________T Submission details here. What are the chances that I can write a fic before the deadline? Much less actually have a chance to win? Zerosum XDDD

Also, Saiyuki Reload Goku Burial Arc preview pics over here *WANTS*


Saiyuki Fic Recs

Weeks ago I was browsing through the saiyuki comm and ended up checking out the fics over at springkink. As I don't really read much fic and don't really ship that many couples, naturally I ended up checking out the saiyuki fics, specifically the Sanzo/Goku ones. Found a couple that I liked enough to rec. Note these are yaoi fics.

"Close your eyes and think of Sa ... shimi," Gojyo suggested with a wink.
- Gojyo is made of so much win on this one with the constant digs on Sanzo XDDD

Hush by kispexi2
- This one is purely smut but it's very funny in some areas. Try not to let the initial "calling" thing bother you.

How Goku Lost His Virginity by wedjateye
- I've probably mentioned this before but putting it here in case I forget where to find it again. Amusing yet believable theory on Goku's first time. Nothing explicit though, just a prelude to what happens next.


And now I flail because I can't for the life of me find the fic I so wanted to rec in the first place. I've been trying to remember how I found it and the closest I can remember is either someone mentioned the fic in a comment to someone's rec, or someone recced it in this comm where really good fanfic is recced. But I can't remember the comm T_T

The fic in question is a really good sort of AU fic where the guys keep getting reincarnated and meeting up in some kind of limbo area. And the best part about it is that Goku is not there (since he's trapped for 500 years) and Sanzo keeps looking for him every time! Whenever they meet up there they complain about each other in their past life. There was one time when Sanzo was a girl and Gojyo kept hitting on him/her XD

Another one is possibly the only Hakkai/Gojyo/Goku threesome fic ever. Also recced in that comm I think. Not a fan of this threesome (or any threesome for that matter) but this one actually worked.


Ugh I'm made of so much fail T_T I really can't remember and I've been looking and looking and looking through comms and user profiles. GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~ But it's getting late and I should be getting home. So if anyone has even a remote idea of what I'm talking about, any help or pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. I'm one of those people who can't let something go until they remember it, so please take pity XDD

Have a good weekend you guys! Can't take the day off on Monday after all :/ Catch up with the flist then, ja~
