whining and recs

[cicer]

OMG SO TIRED. Long, ugly week. Blah. Need sleep.

Busy, busy, busy trying to wrap up the five thousand projects I have in the works in time for NaNoWriMo. Whichisin15daysohmygodIamgoingtodie. After this week I'll probably take a short break in oder to gather my strength for the coming month. I suspect I'll be spending a lot of time on the I Hate Myself And Want To Die board in November. Oh yes.

Via andmydog: The Fantasy Novelist's Exam

louiselux put up links to a bunch of absolutely adorable Saiyuki fanart. The Tenpou getting dragged along by Kenren cartoon killed me.

I recently rediscovered the excellent The Tragedye of Sanlet, Prince of Denmark by andmydog. If you haven't read that, go read it now. If you have read it, go reread it now. Shakespeake parodies are teh funny.

baka_gaijin wrote an awesome little Banri fic based on a plotbunny I had. I would so totally do a version of this if I had the time/inspiration. *sighs* Maybe sometime soon.

I did a few muse_secrets a few days ago. They're here. Saiyuki, Harry Potter, and Escaflowne.

Have a mentioned lately that daegaer's Schwarzkinder drabbles completely own my soul? Because they do. &hearts You need to go check out Birds and Bees and especially Klaatu Barada Nikto, which is based on a cracktastic Supreme Overlord dream lisa_bee had. *declares eternal devotion to daegaer*

I Never Meant to Fade Away by hydr0phobia. Awesome, awesome Saiyuki 'what if?' fic. Wow.

Also, I've developed a little crush on Samurai Champloo recently. Anyone got any good Samurai Champloo recs they'd like to toss my way? Pur-lease?

Mmmm, Samurai Champloo's one of my all-time favorites (and the source of one of my favorite OT3s). There's some lovely Samurai Champloo fanart, but it is insanely, sadly deprived of fic. Have you seen through the last episodes? Not that the recs I have have spoilers... prillalar wrote my favorite Champloo stories here. Lovely drabbles by various authors here and here and here (end of series spoilers for the last link).

This is the best Champloo fansite on the web, and it has reviews of and pictures from Champloo doujinshi as well as mind-bogglingly exhaustive information on every other aspect of the series.

I haven't seen all the episodes, but I'm a total spoiler whore, so I don't care. Yay! Thank you for all the recs. *runs off to check them out*

Spoilers are bad! Especially for a Watanabe series! *sticks out tongue*
