Oh time paradoxes that work
Now that I'm half done with the Wawku Shrine, I can say with a base I HATE THAT FUCKING DUNGEON. Too bad, because the twin demons and the battles against them with Oki and [insert spoiler character] are pretty cool, but the place itself is HATRED.
Incidentally, I'm way passed the point of no return. No, not in-game, in-fandom. I've already written fic and done graphics that aren't icons. Ahem. I'm screwed, yeah. But I love that game too much.
Speaking of love, eeeeeeeh the Slayers memorial clip is made of win! Lina/Gourry is win. Amelia posing is win. Zelgadis showing up riding what must be the world's stongest horse is win. Xelloss in the distance stalking is win. I miss that series a lot. I really must do a marathon.
Cartoon Network had The Iron Giant on, but I missed the first minutes. What a cute movie! I almost cried.

haro asked me these (by the way, I'll comment in the meme soon, sorry guys)
shin shunkaden: A one-shot CLAMP manga with their take on a classic Korean love story. Except there's not so much of romance, and the characters are radically different, and there's magic and martial arts. But that's why I like it. The main character is awesome and adorable, and the love interest is extremely cool and flirtyand hot. They bicker and eat a lot and set to travel together. Yeah, my kind of ship :D
wish: Another CLAMP series. This is one of the fluffy ones with a naive main character and without gore, so that means it has like no fandom. But I like the secondary and minor characters, especially the archangel and the demon prince who eloped together (and that, kids, shows a CLAMP bishounen IS able to lose an eye in a cute way). Well, I pretty much like everyone but Kohaku and Shuichirou (the first). It's a good change from the waaaangst (even if there IS angst and deaths and tragic destiny).
good omens: Heh, another series with angels and demons. This is a novel written by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, so by default it's FTW. It's a humorous take on the apocalypse, although not missing philosophical and psychological issues to address between the jokes. Also great because the main characters are a demon and an angel (who are BFF) who have adapted to human nature too well and don't want the apocalypse to happen, so they have to face their superiors and challenge them. And the antichrist is a normal eleven year-old. And so on. Just for that fact you gotta understand this book is really original and great.
There's a character in Card Captor Sakura called Takashi Yamazaki. His hobby is telling far-fetched, made-up stories to their classmates and girlfriend XD That kid has such the imagination. This image comes from one of his tales, involving the fact emperor penguins can outgrow human beings. I like this lie because it's very Monty Python of him.
If I were a Hogwarts student, I think I might sorted to Ravenclaw (although I do have some Hufflepuff and Gryffindor traits). I liked that claw-esque quote, because I'm a computer scientist and it sounded so true and nerdy. (Source code are the instructions of a program in the language it's been originally written in, or the HTML code of a web page. Basically, if you can read the language and have the code, you can kinda understand what it does, so knowing life's 'source code' would be quite useful)
It's an XXXHOLiC thing. Watanuki, the main character, spazzes a lot. One of his best friends, Himawari, tends to imagine him as an angry kitty almost all the time XDDDD It's funny, really. So here's one of Kitty!Watanuki's scenes. The toy mouse the kitty is bitchslapping is, by context, Doumeki.

Good Omens sounds interesting.
That's actually what I definitely loved about Wish as well. I really loved that pairing, but to be honest Kohaku and Shuichirou's relationship didn't interest me that much.
I love the kitty Watanuki.

It's an interesting book, and enjoyable.
Personally, I'm more used to liking minor and/or more adult|mentor ships in CLAMP works, so I'm not surprised I found the main pairing boring as hell. But yeah, Hisui/Kokuyou, the demons, and the archangels were quite a cast.

And yes, that's exactly why it is the win. I totally subscribe to the Amelia theory. I like how she landed and then gestured towards Zel on the hill. Like- 'Tada, there's my dork!'
I like some CLAMP main pairings a lot, but something about those two almost didn't sit right with me. Truthfully, I'm not sure what. It just didn't click. Kohaku was cute, but... I dunno. Loved the sidecast though.

Amelia just looked so happy in general, I would be shocked it's not because she was meeting Zel. Well, and the other two, but mostly Zel.
Main couples in CLAMP are either too saccharine or too angstygorewoe or inurface or several at the same time for my taste, except for a couple of cases. That's why I stick to minor couples, whether canon or not.

Good Omens ha de caer. Casi he desistido de encontrarla en español, y debería comprarla vía amazon en inglés, pero me fastidia pagar más de shipping que por la novela.
La icona de Watanuki!gato siempre me ha encantado =3
