When it comes to Urusei Yatsura, I think I've said enough that I don't really know if I need to say that my OTP is Ryuunosuke/Shinobu. While I, being the big Ryuunosuke fan that I am, often also pair her with other characters (one of my fanfics that I'm having trouble actually sitting down and writing is a Ryuunosuke/Lum story), most of the time it's with Shinobu. The thing is, that Ryuunosuke and Shinobu have their own love interests at the end of the manga, and no matter how I should feel about the situation, that I should hate Nagisa and Inaba for driving a wedge between these two, I can't really bring myself to do it. I guess all my character hate is either subsumed into other characters, like Ryuunosuke's father, or if I'm just not bothered with hating fictional characters any more, unless they're extremely annoying.

On another note, I think I've managed to put an end to my credit card troubles... )

NEW FANFICTION!

This Is The Key To Victory! My own personal attempt at long form serialised Urusei Yatsura fanfiction, updated whenever I get the will to write something. It's slightly inspired by a certain Ranma 1/2 fanfic, which posited the idea of what the series might have been like if Ranma and Akane started off on better terms than they did in canon. So my version is basically "What if Lum faced Ryuunosuke in the Tag Race, and subsequently got herself engaged to her?"

Just as a rule of thumb as to where I'm going for this, I've taken inspiration from [personal profile] skye on the idea of Ryuunosuke being asexual, and I'm running with it, making her a romantic asexual who falls in love with Lum (and gains her own minor harem, but that's a horse of a different colour). The problem is, I haven't get any idea how to write an asexual. If there are romantic asexuals, who would you write them falling in love? Would you be able to write them falling in love, without compromising the idea that they're asexual?

Another thing: Fred Herriot, writer of Urusei Yatsura The Senior Year, just wrote a review for it: "LOL! Poor RyĆ»-chan! Will Lum EVER get a clue?"

Yeeeeah...

Which reminds me to maybe start planning out my idea for the big "critical analysis of The Senior Year" thing that's been festering in the back of my mind since I seriously started trying to read that fanfic...

Yes, I've just had a revelation about one of my favourite OTPs, Ryuunosuke and Shinobu from Urusei Yatsura...

In one of my fanfic ideas that I should really be writing these days, Ryuunosuke and Shinobu are a pair of badasses who always work the best when they're together, because they're so together they know how the other thinks. As a result, Ryuunosuke's fighting expertise combined with Shinobu's raw strength make them a nigh-unbeatable team. And in the future, they raise a son of their own, who grows up to become as much as a badass as they are.

So basically, my ideal future for the pair of them is for them to become the female Apollo and Midnighter of Wildstorm's Authority...

So I've been trying to write something for years now, and I mean that literally -- the text file's properties says it was first created on Christmas Eve, 2006 -- And I have now just finally finished the opening scenes of what's intended to be the first part of the story. Basically, the premise is that I'm taking a crappy Daria femmeslash fanfic I found on shoujoai.com, and rewriting it to make it more in-character, more easier to read, and more... Better, to tell the truth.

Any questions, comments, flames, all are welcome!

So without further ado...

I just signed up to do an essay on Ship Manifesto, no prizes for guessing what pairing I'm going to write about.

As it is, this should be an opportunity to finally managed to get something out about this ship, because damn, I can't stop thinking about it.

The worst part of it is that, because it is, after all, an obscure pairing for an anime over 20 years old, there is next to nothing about it. Sure, you could probably get scads and scads of fics with every possible pairing over in the Ranma 1/2 and Inu-Yasha, but trying to find anything yuri in the Urusei Yatsura fanfic world that's not written by Fred Herriot? Impossible.

Hopefully, by writing about this pairing, I can get at least some attention from other people...
