I plead sleep debt, your honor. (I can't stay up to watch the Daily Show or the Colbert Report anymore! *sob*)

[livejournal.com profile] worldserpent posted about the many many many faults of Katekyou Hitman Reborn!, and why she was entertained by it anyway. A few weeks ago [livejournal.com profile] lacewood made a similar, but much less forgiving post, but then went on to BECOME A FAN ANYWAY WTF. This is seriously the last time I anti-recommend anything, obviously such tactics have either none or an opposing effect -_-;.

April Fools: I liked this one at the Reborn! comm (haha, it was pages before anyone got the joke, stupid manga obviously attracts lots of stupid fans kidding, kidding, the joke was kind of niche and the community is extremely popular, so lots of people probably commented in the first rush before anyone picked up on it). There was also this one on the Loveless comm, which was AWESOME. XD

supacat's post on JE. I'm not much of a fan of the source material, but I like reading the commentary.
From that post, [livejournal.com profile] annnimeee's Nobuta wo Produce fic "Youthful Love, WHICH IS LOVE, seriously. .___.

More fic recs!
[livejournal.com profile] c_elisa, For the Kingdom of Heaven: X-men, Beast POV on a controversial mutant "cure".
[livejournal.com profile] mithrigil, Spires of Granite, Eyes of Black: Twelve Kingdoms, Rakushun on pilgrimage to Mt. Houzan. This recommendation is pointless because every single 12K fan here is probably already watching [livejournal.com profile] canis_m, but just in case.
[livejournal.com profile] xparrot, On the Wings of Imagination and With Healing in His Wings: Stargate Atlantis & Dragonriders of Pern. I forget who recced this. orz Google says that this crossover is not the first, but it might be the first with Sheppard as a sarcastic bronze dragon bonded to a reluctant McKay. On a related note, [livejournal.com profile] afrai has been running a "give me two characters, and I will write you a story where one of them is a dragon soul-bonded to the other" challenge on her ficjournal, and the results have been very entertaining so far. XD
EDIT - HOW COULD I FORGET -
[livejournal.com profile] vanilla_klise, Mushi ex Machina: the best Modern!AU Mushishi fic ever. See also the psuedocanon fic A Wandering Song + everything the author has ever written.

Work was hell today. I hate style handbooks. WHO CARES WHETHER THE PERIOD COMES BEFORE OR AFTER THE PARENTHESIS IN AN MLA-STYLE CITATION, I CERTAINLY DON'T.

Okay, I'm done. ...No! Wait! I also read some books this week:

Sea of Wind by Fuyumi Oni (trans. Alexander O. Smith)
War of the Oaks by Emma Bull
Tin Princess by Philip Pullman
and
The Prentice Hall Anthology of Science Fiction and Fantasy by Vrs. Authors <-- someone at work gave me this for free

I've been totally failing at bookblogging this year, but if someone wants to know what I thought of these, I'll try very hard to answer in comments.
