hehe, I guess the ishi_ichi comm will be my next stop, then! I confess,

sublimeparadigm was the first place I hit. The IsshinxRyuuken killed me dead. (I kinda enjoyed it. keep it on the lowdown, ne?)

thank you for the random pimpage - it was completely what I was looking for! (and thank you for the compliment. we can politely pretend I'm not gloating over it, right?)

From:

Tatsuki/Inoue! Yes! Hahaha, it's true. I know it is.

I think Yoruichi is with Urahara and Soi Fong is just in love with her. Then again, Yoru and Urahara are possibly cousins...? Whatever. ^^;;

From:

I watched with my brothers and my cousins, and nobody believed me. ~sulks~ dammit, there ARE anime lesbians! and not just in anime porn!

hmm. kissing cousins? well, it's not like they're having children anyway. then again, I suspect their offspring would resemble Soubi from Loveless prior the loss of his cat-ears, so... maybe they SHOULD make babies.

From:

Chizuru is definitely a lesbian at least. I mean, she never shuts up about Orihime and Orihime's boobs. But Tatsuki is always defending Orihime... because she likes Orihime, and it's very obvious if one just thinks about it... I support TatsuHime and IchiIshi... and to the IshiHime people I just say no. They're cute when they dress up as shinigami together, but I think it's more of them being friends... or maybe Ishida has a bit of a crush on her? But he'll be with Ichigo in the end.

If they are cousins, I think they're very distantly related. Mostly I've seen it as "Yoruichi is Urahara's best friend," but one translation or site or something mentioned them being family... I've only seen it one place though so I'm inclined to think that it was incorrect. I want them to have adorable little babies... ^^;
It's canon that Soi Fong is in love with Yoruichi though. I just don't think Yoruichi feels the same way, since she already has her Hat'n'clogs.

And~ while I'm on this little rant... I love Renji and Rukia. So much. They are just about the most adorable thing ever... if only Renji would actually do something about it. T_T ByaRen is pretty, but I think it's too many layers of breaking canon to work in anything but out of character fics. Still fun though...

If you want IchiIshi crack (and I do mean crack, it makes no logical sense), I can point you in the direction of

semchance's Everlong fic. It's not done, but I know she's still working on it, and it's rather amusing.

From:

Chizuru is hilarious. I think she was me in another life. and hey, I wouldn't have shut up about Orihime's boobs either... It's weird, though, TatsuHime seems like a very undramatic pairing. It's very right, but I think they could get together without all the idiot-fumbles the boys have. And Ishida's obsession with Ichigo is so cute! It's forbidden love. =)

Yoruichi and Urahara are very much settled, if they're together - kinda like Shunsui and Ukitake, actually. And I'd love to get more of the backstory with Yoruichi and Soi Fong in canon, because if Yoruichi didn't feel the same way, she sure as hell led that poor girl on. I mean, Soi Fong couldn't have been more obvious about her feelings without sending chocolates and singing outside Yoruichi's window at night. ^^;;

I want canon RenjiRukia so bad it hurts. He cares about her so much. I think that's what bothers me about ByaRen so much, actually: it always glosses over how important Rukia is to Renji. I mean, you aren't willing to lose your career, kill your captain, or even die for any old childhood friend.

~twitches~ hmm. I may check that out, actually... and speaking of crack: have you read any good Hanatarou fic? I want to cuddle him.

From:

I think Yoruichi was, if anything, rather oblivious to Soi Fong's infatuation with her. There is one part where she does something rather like that, though. The Valentine's Day episode... yeah.

I haven't read any Hanataro fic at all... he's so adorable, there should be some fic about him somewhere.

From:

~le sigh~ dammit, I want Yoruichi to be smarter than that. even if she is with Urahara, she shouldn't let him get away with being the clever one in the relationship.

I think the closest I've come is a vaguely RenjixHanatarou drabble. Honestly, as weird as it would look, I think GanjuxHanatarou would be awfully cute.

From:

He is pretty clever though. Head of the research division and all....

GanjuxHanatarou would be pretty adorable . I think I might request that over at

backroom_crack.... XD

From:

that's no excuse. he's a boy. he's supposed to be the dumb one. =)

hehe, let me know if they write anything good!

I like IchiIshi. *gets whacked*

But no likey Paparabu (Isshin/Ryuuken)? D: Sadface. But their love is so . . . uh, manly. XDDD

I have a bunch of IchiIshi (+ a few other) recs floating around at

akashic_records (speaking of which, holy crap I need to update that 0__o).

And you can always read my fic, of course. *shameless* 8D

From:

I would never whack you for such a profound statement. =P

um... yes... I suppose. and scarily supported by the mangaka, and actually fairly in character for Papa Kurosaki. But somehow, I just don't want to know about Ichigo's Papa having sex. It's one of those things. I don't care who it's with. And think of poor Ichigo! His brain would break. and he would be committing semi-incest with Ishida.

yosh! will go check out recs.

but I already read all your fic! as soon as I finished Soul Society, I said to myself, who on my flist writes Bleach? And immediately I replied, self, you fool,

sublimeparadigm! so I read it all in one very long happy drugtrip. (your AU futurefic was particularly mindblowing, btw.) ~pouts~ go write more!

From:

griffinfire.livejournal.com

Kyouraku x Ukitake for the win!!!!! *dances around happily* 'Tis my Bleach OTP. ^_^ There's some good fic on

shun_uki, but I haven't looked there recently, so I can't guarantee the quality of the more recent ones.

From:

~joins the dance of OTP joy~ well, I'm looking. minor pairings usually don't get as much badly written fic, right...?

From:

We need to do something! Not that I feel guilty about not coming or anything....

From:

~kicks in head~ not that you should or anything... =P

well, I might forgive you. what sort of thing did you want to be doing?

From:

domovoi-13.livejournal.com

I'm going to be busy most of this week, well not Sunday, but there is the week after (and that is the week of my birthday...).

From:

well, call me or something! I'm moving in on Saturday, I think, but there could be a late-night ice-cream run, or other havoc to be wreaked. I'll call you when I crawl out of bed, actually, and plot this in person. ~hugs~ till then!

From:

YES.

After one year of trying to brainwash you into Bleach, I have succeeded!!!!!! XDDD Ehehehehehe XD;;

Except the problem is I seemed to have fallen out of the fandom. u_u; Don't watch past Soul Society arc because the fillers are just...not worth it but has canon RenjixIchi. So I dunno XDDD;;; And I got tired of reading the manga at like...ch 210? Why can't everything make as much sense as the SS arc? ;_;

Renji is for the win :D I lovelovelove Renji. Also, Gin. ISN'T HE LIKE SUPER-EVIL FUJI??? And I dunno maybe Aizen is Inui. God you love Bleach now. T_T I can die happy

From:

As for fics,

peroxide_fic has the best drabbles, especially about the 11th Division. :D Yay scary Zaraki love!

tristefic had really good IshiIchi/IchiIshi fics, but then she wanted to do Ishiin/Ryuuken (WHICH I DO NOT APPROVE)

Okay those are mainly art links. I had a 100+ link list somewhere but I can't seem to find it. EHEHEHE XDD

From:

~dies happy~

From:

haha, I got all "determined face" and brought the CDs you made me on vacation, except then I realized that I didn't have Realplayer so I went ~facepalm~ and had to bring my laptop home to download it. And then I watched Bleach and more Bleach incessantly in my empty house. And on the bus to Maine. And then my cousins brainwashed me thoroughly. My cousins are made of awesome, especially since I can make them cringe just by shrieking ICHIISHI! at them.

I think I might actually keep up with the manga, and my brothers will probably tell me if there's an interesting filler episode in the anime, so I don't have to watch it myself, yay.

Renji is awesome! I've been reading really vile quantities of ByakuyaRenji which is okay, I guess, except come on, Byakuya was so much more fun and sexy when he was evil. Now he's all emo. Gin is totally Fuji, and I think he's only following Aizen so he can sex him up and then stab him in the back. Backstabbing totally turns Gin on. OH! I totally predicted Aizen's evilness! NO-ONE IS THAT NICE TO STUPID SOPS LIKE HINAMORI HIS DEATH WAS FAKED AND MADE OF EVIL!!! I said. well, in my head.

no, no dying! you still have to show me your host-club anime and let me copy your homework in calc class!

From:

yes. I love evil!Byakuya. Um I love the Byakuya x Renji fight and then he just throws his scarf at Renji. Umm. I love almost all the characters in Bleach, except for probably Hinamori, but she's a little better when she's around Hitsugaya. (SUPER WATERMELON SEED ATTACK!!!!) I love Hitsugaya too ;_; He's like a grumpy Ryoma with white hair :DDDD (I totally had this Bleach = PoT with swords) I like Kon too. XD; WHEN ICHIGO COMES BACK ON THE FLYING CARPET, HE SEES KON UM. YEAH. HE'S LIKE OMG WTF ARE YOU DOING WITH MY BODY. I love Isshin too. Maybe not Ryuuken. And I hate how the filler remade Ishida's personality. Not cool.

Oh, I also don't like blind guy, although I like his fukutaichou XD;; I LIKE KONAMURA TOO XDDDD; HE'S A WOLF! WHEEE. And I love the Soi Fong and Yoruichi angst. God I just love Bleach characters ¬_¬

EEE SOMEONE IS GOING TO TAKE MULTIVARIABLE WITH ME? :D :D :D WAHAHA. I still don't know if I should take Math 21a or 23a, though ;_; ALSO. MY MIND IS MADE UP. I'M TAKING MARTIAL. HEE :D

From:

Hinamori is SO FREAKING ANNOYING. ARGH. except maybe I'm biased because Kira should be equally annoying but I forgive him because he's pretty. IkkakuxKira is crackwhorelove. and OMG YOU'RE RIGHT HITSUGAYA = RYOMA!!! I wondered why I thought his grouchiness was so cute. I liked Kon when they first introduced him, but then he devolved into boring "BREASTS BREASTS BREASTS" character. Being a stuffed animal all the time definitely reduced him interesting quotient.

Blind guy reminds me of Geordi from Star Trek. ~sweatdrops~ but 69-guy is SEXY. He and the prettyboy from 11th should hook up. oh, and does fancy-lashes remind you of Shinji? I can totally picture Shinji rambling on about how pretty he is. Soi Fong and Yoruichi make me sad because I get conflicted over whether I want lesbians or Urahara sex more. AGH I CANNOT DECIDE.

...um, can we take Math 20 instead? it looks less scary and difficult, and it's multi-variable too! but MARTIAL FOR THE WIN!!!

From:

YAH SHINJI. And Ikkaku looks like Jackal, but does dorky dances like Kamio. XD; I always think that Byakuya is like the child of Atobe and Tezuka wahahha >_> and how that for brainhurt? XDD; I like um. Fandom's portrayal of Kira as a dork. But Kira's pretty! GinxKira is totally my OTP. (okay I have like 9832098409328 OTPs in Bleach so maybe nevermind...)

There are so many um. 69 guy x pretty boy fics out there. They're all vaguely amusing but I'm a big fan of Renji x anyone or anyone x Ichigo. Because I'm terrible like that. XDD; I love OH GOD I LOVE BLEACH. I'M NOT EVEN EVER ANNOYED AT RUKIA! I love Rukia. Okay I need to stop babbling my love for all the characters (and their SWORDS. I LOVE THEIR SWORDS MAN. *____*)

T_T; I have to take Math 21+ in order to fulfill requirements for my concentration. T___T;; And well, multivariable calc is so useful, right, right? :D *tries to brainwash V*

From:

now I want to watch the dorky dance again... I don't know, Byakuya is definitely the offspring of Tezuka, but I would kind of go for Fuji rather than Atobe for the other parent - it would take some heavy-duty childhood trauma to make an icicle-shinigami like Byakuyabo. I think having Fuji for a mom counts. And I think I read somewhere that Byakuya likes spicy food - it's genetics! (haha, everyone has a zillion Bleach OTPs cuz the characters are all so pretty.)

~snerks~ I have a secret weakness for uke Ichigo. He so totally takes it like a woman. Even from Orihime. And especially from Rukia. XD

o_O;; but then I would be surrounded by math and science and other pre-med type peoples! I love you, but your kind and mine are natural enemies or something... >_>

From:

Oh god do you remember the episode where Yachiru chews on Ikkaku's head? I think I rewinded that like 10 times just watching her go CHOMPCHOMP MMMM!!!!! :DDD

ahahaha oh poor Byakuya. XD;; I liked him so much better evil (omg the bankai battle with Ichigo = BEST THING EVAR but then the imagery is totally inappropriate too XDD;;;)

Byakuya: ......dude it's that small?
Ichigo: It's not about the size but how you use it! and yours shatters into a million little pieces
Byakuya: *makes evil eye* TEME WO KOROSU!!!!!!!!!

Oh, I don't think Ichi tops anyone. Ishida even whips his arse, although it's kind of reversible. I have a strange thing for UraharaxIchigo but not romantically...I dunno sometimes I feel Urahara radiating Asami-aura and he's skeeery XDD;

Well, Byakuya and Gin were pals together in the shinigami school. And they did graduate together and got their taichou rank about the same time. Call them.....friends. XD I dunno XDDDD;;;;;

Yes you would. That's why I need someone there who can say things like 5 + 3 = 2 :(
