The clothes, kitchen linens and towels I washed 2 months ago and from which I wanted to remove the pet hairs before putting it away.

Never happened

From the book Organizing Solutions for People with ADHD:

Putting a coat on the back of a chair by the door is fine, but if you prefer, use coat hooks and a large catch-all basket for dropping keys, hats, gloves.

Small bookcase end-table next to the couch to store craft projects, books, and other things being worked on for easy access.

Add a storage unit near the dining room table to transition between eating and working there.

Daily toiletry items should be stored in a basket that you can move easily

Extra toiletries and medicine cabinet items go in open shelf/basket storage so they can be seen and used easily. If items no longer fit, purge the excess. Don’t obscure the view!

If you disrobe in the bathroom, place a tall hamper in there.

Keep a set of cleaning supplies in each bathroom

I thought they were going to kiss

And here it is...a better quality version, as promised, haha.

This is what I needed, the gifs of this moment..

Gabi ran to Nico, past Lando, his good friend, without even congratulating him to he could get to Nico, saw Max congratulated him, got to clap handshake with Nico, was awkwardly around, but finally got to hug Nico

Gabi is so precious

Very much this

there’s just something about this picture….the ferrari logo looking like it’s crying, charles with one foot out the door but still looking in (for now), the sponsorships starting to blur….it feels like maybe the rose coloured glasses are starting to come off, and he’s seeing the blood in the rosso corsa for the first time.

do you know, charles? do you know they’ll keep you nailed to that cross as long as you stay?

Reblog if you honestly have NEVER sent anon hate.

It pains me that only 14,000 people can honestly reblog this

Interview Translation

I finally had some time to translate the Yoneda Kou interview in the March issue of the magazine “Da Vinci” that came out last month. The issue focuses on introducing BL manga to male readers, and includes interviews with some other BL mangaka like Harada, Takarai Rihito, and Kumota Haruko as well.

Yoneda Kou – Her realistic portrayals of men receive attention even outside the genre of BL

“Saezuru tori wa habatakanai” is a BL manga about the lives of men on the dark side of society. Despite its genre and graphic sex scenes the series has an exceptional number of male supporters as well. Why is that? We’ve asked the author Yoneda Kou who recently started serializing another series called “OP – The Colorless Days of Yoake Itaru” in the seinen magazine “Evening”.

The setting is a well-known criminal organization, the Japanese Yakuza. In Saezuru tori wa habatakanai which tells the story of the shrewd wakagashira Yashiro and the ex-cop Doumeki who becomes his personal assistant / bodyguard, Yoneda Kou creates a dense picture of a male-dominated world wavering between chivalry and jealousy, conspiracies and sexual desire. Not only is the series immensely popular among BL readers, it also receives favorable ratings from outside the genre, having won prizes like the FRaU Manga Award and the SUGOI JAPAN Award. Even the author herself never expected such a response from Non-BL readers when she first started serializing her work. »It feels very odd to me, since I’m drawing with the intention of creating a straightforward BL story. Given Yashiro’s characterization as lewd and masochistic, I first thought that my manga wouldn’t even appeal to many BL readers. That’s why I simply feel happy that someone would go so far as recommend it to others.«

Yoneda Kou Poll: Translated Questions

I finally got round to translating the ten winner questions of my little Yoneda Kou Poll. Sorry for the wait, I had a busy weekend. You can send Sensei these questions by answering the 10-Year Anniversary Survey until July 31st. It wasn’t specified anywhere if the number of questions per person is limited, so it should be okay to ask more than one. If you ask all the questions at once though, that might be considered spam, so choose your favorites below and then copy & paste the Japanese translation into the specified field in part 3 of the survey. Maybe there’s a word limit once you try, but I don’t know since I haven’t answered it yet.

At the end of the post I’ve also added some questions I translated for @lustfulcat as a bonus. She’s always working hard for the fandom, so I thought that’s only fair. I also included my own questions, in case someone else wants to ask them too.

On to the Questions:

(1) If Yashiro had outright confessed to Kageyama, would they have dated? How long would it have lasted for?

もし高校生の矢代が勇気を絞って景山に告白してたら、2人は付き合うことになったでしょうか。なかなか想像がつきませんが、2人の関係はどれくらい続いてたでしょうか。

(2) Why Yashiro have a change in his color hair? I see a lot of posters and in them his hair changes.

矢代の髪の毛の色は絵によって違う気がしますが、先生はなぜ時々髪の毛の色を変えたりしますか。

(3) If she could pick actors to play Saezuru characters, who would she pick?

もし「囀る～」の映画化が決まって、先生は世界のどの俳優でも選べることが出来るのなら（あり得ない前提ですみません）、誰が「囀る～」 のキャラに一番イメージが近いと思いますか？

(4) What are your top ten yaoi manga by other mangaka?

先生の一番好きなBL漫画を10作教えてください。もし答えにくいのであれば、どういうBL漫画が個人的にお好みですか？

(She might be hesitant to directly name titles as her favorites since she has many BL mangaka friends who she might be afraid to offend with her answer. So I’ve added : If it’s difficult to answer this question, what kind of yaoi manga do you like in general?)

(5) Which of her couples are reversible? If none are, would you ever draw a reversible couple?*

先生は リバーシブル についてどう思いますか？先生のカップルの中にはリバCPがいますか？小野田と出口ならリバあり得るかなと思いますが、もし違うのなら、いつかリバカプを描きたいと思いますか？

(What do you think about reversible couples? Do any of your couples like to switch? Onoda and Deguchi kind of seem like they would, but if I’m wrong, would you ever draw a reversible couple?)

(6) What’s a detail in one of your works that you think most people don’t notice?

今まで描いてきた漫画を振り返ってみると、こだわったわりにはなかなか読者に注目されていないところ、又はあまり気付かれていないところなどありますか？

(7) Do you get *feels* when you read your own work?

先生はご自分の作品に萌えられますか？

(8) Is there a Yoneda Kou “universe” in which all or many of her works take place? Now that we’ve seen Shark and Whale from “Saezuru” in “Op,” I really want to know whether Masaki from “Nights” (police, drug division) and Ryouji from “Why do you love me anyway” (police, organized crime division) know Yashiro’s sex friend … (No. 1)

ヨネダ先生の多くの作品の舞台になった「ヨネダコウの世界」みたいな設定がありますか？鮫と鯨は「囀る～」にもOpにも現れますが、NightSの真崎は「俺に恋して～」の良司や「囀る～」の矢代の（警察の）セフレとの知り合いですか？とても気になります。

(9) Does Yashiro have any particular feelings about his birthday? Did any specific event happen that might have soured the occasion for him?

矢代は自分の誕生日について何か特別な気持ちを抱いていますか？昔、その日には何か嫌なこととかありましたか？

(10) Who is Yoneda-sensei type of man among all the characters she has created, and why?

ヨネダ先生が考えたキャラクターの中から、個人的に誰が一番タイプですか？こういう人がいれば気になるというキャラはいますか？ 理由も教えてください。

Bonus Questions:

1. How does Yoneda Kou feel about the love she gets from foreign fanbases? (@lustfulcat​ )

先生は海外のファンもたくさんいるかと思いますが、そのことについてどう思いますか？もし何か伝えたいことがあれば教えてください。

2. Would she consider a Saezuru OVA / is that something she eventually wants? (@lustfulcat​ )

もしそういう機会があれば、先生はご自分の作品のアニメ化を望ましいと思いますか？どの作品が一番アニメに向いていると思いますか？

(Worded more generally: Do you like the idea of one of your works to be made into an anime? Which one of them do you think would be suited best?)

3. We know why Kageyama fell in love with Kuga, but what is it that attracts Kuga to Kageyama? What are their dates like?

景山は久我のことをギラギラやイケイケと言いますが、久我は景山のどういうところに惹かれてますか？2人のデートはどんな感じでしょうか？

4. Will there ever be a continuation of Yorube Naki Mono?

「寄る辺無き者」の続きがとても気になります。いつか続編が読めるでしょうか。

Notes:

*@wouldnt-touch-you-anyway kindly reminded me that Sensei had once said in an interview that she liked gentle semes like Doumeki and Onoda who ultimately wouldn’t mind being uke if their partner asked them to. She also said that Togawa probably wouldn’t switch.

Mamá (see profile pic), Mew and Mew3 (these weren’t supposed to be their names).

I noticed Mamá nursing her babies under a neighbour’s balcony, hence the name.

Mew and Mew3 (and Mew2) were supposed to be adopted, hence why I didn’t give them real names. Mew2 was adopted, but not her sisters, so that’s it!

If you have a cat please reblog this with its name please and thank you
