[Pic] The Perils of Alcohol

tj_dragonbladeThe art muse strikes at the damnedest times...I had work to do yesterday but this just wouldn't leave me alone. Inspired by one of my results from that 'What the hell happened last night?' meme. It's the sort of scene that would likely never happen, given Hakkai's legendary tolerance for alcohol; but...like I said. Pic wouldn't leave me alone.

You also made their hair so pretty too, that's hard to do! Then, to top it off, the detail of the leash and handcuffs. *wanders off giggling some more*

Funny thing. I was searching a forum last night, and one of the topics was 'worst slash pairings'. Interestingly enough, Gojyo/Hakkai came up on the discussion as not part of the 'worst pairings' designation. Instead, nearly everyone who commented on it was in favor. Something about them being a fairly obvious one, however you manage to slice it. XD The only thing that bothered me was that when the "Gojyo's stopped picking up women" supporting argument came into play, it was NOT mentioned anywhere that he did get laid in, what, Gunlock 9?... But we'll ignore that. He he.

And 39 seems to be the more popular fic pairing than 85, too. (shrug) Go figure.

Date: 2004-08-20 09:50 pm (UTC)...uh huh. *grin*
Funny enough. On that same forum, under "pairings that make you go 'ugh'" :
"Saiyuki:
Sanzo/Goku. Big squick of mine. Goku looks about fourteen in human years and acts it. Plus in the last manga I read, they teased him about his youth twice and once he shot back 'hey, I'm still growing!' Why people would want to pair someone as mature and as stoic as Sanzo with little, jumpy, food obsessed Goku is something I just can't understand. One sided from Goku's POV maybe, but mutual? That's too weird for me."
Yeah. He's fourteen. Keep believing it. *eye roll*
And Sanzo... mature? HA! He's the most spoiled brat of the lot! Life in a temple? Pshht... *grin*
Let me guess. "In the last manga I read" = volume 2. Hurrr... there's a bit more to the series than that... Gaiden, anyone? Oh, never mind. *good-natured sigh*
It's okay... everyone's free to think what they like, including the anti-slashers. But then, there's that manga-ka, of sometime yaoi fame... what's her name?
Oh yeah. Kazuya Minekura.
Heh.

Date: 2004-08-20 10:26 pm (UTC)And...I don't know 'bout these folks, but...I see many telling little things about Sanzo, fairly regularly, that betray his true fondness for Goku. But I'm probably looking harder than they are...
And Goku's officially billed as 18, people. No matter what age he acts. Besides, even if he wasn't, what's wrong with a little shotacon?
...I think that's the word, anyway... ^^

Anyway. Yup, Goku's 18. Doesn't really matter what he looks like, though I think he looks older in the manga. And about the shotacon... forsake not also the historical and cultural context. This takes place in, what, 7th century China? Ignoring the anachronisms, I'm pretty sure both homosexuality and what we consider paedophilia were both common. People often forget that things were different in other time periods. Or, if they choose to remember, they simply tack on their own values to the situation. "Gasp! They're male, nude and not ashamed of it! PURITAN CENSORSHIP POWER MAKE-UP!"
... yeah. Anyway. XD
