Celtic crosses

[taotrooper]

Does any of you read Terry Pratchett? I just saw The Colour of Magic in the department store, which is, according to my mad google skills, the first Discworld novel. Is the series any good? I've heard good things about it, but I'd like to read some opinions first.

Oh, and I forgot an aunt had given me a collection of cross pendants. Every cross is different. And I remembered it, and looked for a certain cross, and found it. The cross I was looking for was a Celtic Cross. Awesome, I'm going to use that cross from now on! Virtual cookies to the first one who discovers why would I wear that kind of cross (hint: think about my fandoms and bishounen and you'll get it ^_~)

OK, these are the ones nobody else guessed.

Rurouni Kenshin: The character is Houji. The couple is Sanosuke/Sayo.
Neon Genesis Evangelion: The character is Gendo Ikari. That bastard.
Bleach: The character is Sousuke "one finger cabron" Aizen, but Mayuri is really close. Both Aizen/Hitsugaya and Aizen/Hinamori give me the chillies.
X: The het pairing is Kamui/Kotori (hides from Merche). The yaoi pairing is Subaru/Kamui.
DNAngel: The couple is Satoshi/Risa. For the love of God, animators, what were you thinking! Look what you've done with That Look! He. Is. Gay.
Fruits Basket: I told you it was someone so minor you wouldn't guess. It's this girl with two ponytails from the Yuki fanclub. Man, I can't stand that bitch. For the couple, Yuki/Kyou.

I'm a little behind on my fangirlisms, so quickly:

Lost episode 1.1: Ooh, nice. It has a Stephen King touch that makes it irresistible. That, and my granny hating it. (She has the world's worst TV tastes ever.)

Bleach 26: ADORED the opening. So awesome, everything about it. The ending... meh. Didn't like the song, didn't like the Renji fanservice animation. I have the hopes they're changing it every week so they rotate the featured division. Ooh! That would be wonderful! Imagine one day, an ending with Shunsui and Nanao! XDDD

Bleach 174: To sum it up. Cabroooooooooooooón! Yeah, that. And lots of "argh".

Tsubasa 74: Tomoyo rocks. Yeah, she does.

XXXHOLiC 70 & 71: Oh The Angst! My poor Kimihiro, I just want to huggle him and smooch him a lot ;_; Maternal Yuuko was sweet yet amusing. And I'm so glad that he understood Doumeki only wanted to help and forgave him the next day of school. I'm not going about the "God this is becoming slashier by the minute" because I had enough wank at flowright's. I'm sorry I behaved like that, Anne-san, I really am.

Yo he leído seis o siete libros de Mundodisco (estoy en espera de conseguir más, que aquí llegan con cuentagotas) y me han gustado muchísimo.
El color de la Magia está bastante bien, aunque prefiero otros como Mort o Brujas de Viaje. La mayoría no siguen un orden concreto(aunque los dos primeros sí, si recuerdo bien) y tienen distintos protagonistas, así que puedes leerlos sin necesidad de ir en orden. Recomiendo mucho Mort, el 4º. Es mi favorito almenos. ^^

Yo leo a Terry Pratchett... así que te lo recomendaré mientras me esfuerzo por ser todo lo objetiva posible, ya que este hombre es uno de mis ídolos literarios ^^u Básicamente es literatura fantástica on crack poblada de humor sarcástico. En mi opinión te gustará.

The het pairing is Kamui/Kotori (hides from Merche). The yaoi pairing is Subaru/Kamui. <-- nah, don't worry about me, but you'll have to hide from Estefanía as well. Maybe I'm wrong, but I believe she likes SubaruxKamui XD

Didn't like the song, didn't like the Renji fanservice animation
The song is not awful but it didn't catch my attention either. And since I read my last Furuba tankoubon I didn't see that amount of girl-aimed fanservice ·_·

Gracias ^_^

but you'll have to hide from Estefanía as well
Oh man, just when I needed to ask her a favour... >o<

Furuba fanservice = gooood fanservice ^___^
Neither do I, really... I don't get the fuzz about Renji in fandom. Where did I put my shield, again?.

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

Muchas gracias ^^ En el Carrefour sólo tenían 3 libros, incluido ése, así que me los haré de todos modos.

I had enough wank at flowright's. I'm sorry I behaved like that, Anne-san, I really am.

you call that a wank ? ^___^ naaann it was just a heated conversation.... we should do that more often (not the "punch you in the face" fight mind you but exchanging our point of view on character we like... it felt nice to have a long commentary for once)

I'm sorry too because looking back at my entry, i didn't attend to make it provocative, but it looks like it... so we're back on pleasant term, are we ?

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

Yep, I hope so ^__^

[elihice.livejournal.com]

Ishida's quincy cross?

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

And you get a cookie ^_^

I'll join you in the wanting to huggle Kimihiro mood. Poor baby... *glomps* And that scene with Yuuko is so touching. The way he manages to laugh after all that- aww, he really is growing! *glomps again for good measure*

As for The Doumeki Thing, I'm still neutral to it. It *would* annoy me if they suddenly jumped from sort-of-rivals to couple and/or the plot revolved just around that; but they do seem to be building a friendship first, and that's a good thing. I still don't see a lot of chemistry between them, but I'd rather have things happen slowly... After all, I never doubted that 1)it wouldn't be CLAMP without ships, and 2)it's not Himawari he'll end up with.

In short: I don't mind as long as they remember there's, you know, plot.

It wasn't so hard, considering my current wallpaper features Ishida, Orihime and the cross.

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

O_O

...Do you recall where did you get it?

[elihice.livejournal.com]

I think it was posted on soul society some time ago.

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

... crap.

[elihice.livejournal.com]

I'll try to upload it somewhere.

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

Nah, that's okay. It's just that's hard to find Bleach wallpapers that don't feature shirtless!Renji.

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

Thanks ^^

I'm sorry for the trouble, really. You didn't have to.

[elihice.livejournal.com]

Don't worry. (and I like shirtless Renji. Why don't I ever find shirtless Renji wallpapers?)

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

I don't know. I thought that's all there is, but I never save them. If I ever find one, I'll save it for ya.

Equivalent trade, you know. *fufufufu*

[elihice.livejournal.com]

Just stay away from my arms and legs. (or eyes...)

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

But I'M the one in debt! I should say that to you, since I owe you.

[elihice.livejournal.com]

(Yes, but it was a cool line to use....)

Ok, please leave the eye right next to the big sword and the tatoo.

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

Hey, it's just a wallpaper, not a frigging human transmutation!

[kohaku-san.livejournal.com]

I know this is an odd place to ask, but I was wondering--are you at all interested in friending me? I've looked over your journal, and you seem pretty interesting. We share some things in common, and I've been meaning to get into several of the series you like. So, wanna give it a try?

[umidori.livejournal.com]

I personally like later Discworld books more than Colour of Magic, but it's still an awesome and funny book. ^^
And yes, Tomoyo rocks! <3
