Banana Fish TV Anime PV!! Airs July.

So today is my birthday and I received kudos on my smuttiest stories! I've finally started the fourth instalment and with the weather being so amazing this weekend and it being a long weekend, i hope to take some time to myself to write more!

Yoneda-sensei Replying to Questions on Twitter

Sensei replied to some fan questions through the Marshmallow app which is a popular way among manga artists to interact with their fans on Twitter. Let’s hope she makes a habit of it. ;)

Questions from June 11th, 2018

Q: Would you be interested in drawing a sequel to any of your finished works?

A: After a work is finished I wouldn’t mind drawing an additional bonus story if it’s short, but I’ve never thought about a proper sequel. A spin-off though, set in the same universe as the original story seems doable … I guess. In case of Saezuru I could imagine making Ryuuzaki, Misumi or Amou the protagonist [of a new manga/series].

Q: I love Ryuuzaki’s one sided love towards Yashiro. About the scene where Yashiro got tossed out in the snow naked: I headcanon that Ryuuzaki probably returned to the mahjong parlor around the time his friends placed their orders at the yakiniku restaurant, but Yashiro wasn’t there anymore (because Misumi had taken him with him). What did really happen?

A: I think Ryuuzaki probably passed in front of the mahjong parlor alone on his way back from the yakiniku place, but since Yashiro wasn’t there anymore, he was left with an uncertain, nagging feeling. During that time the two of them had that June feel to them.

Q: You are drawing for josei magazines as well as for seinen magazines. When did you properly start thinking about your career? You also said that you used to work an office job in the past. Did you think about becoming a mangaka during that time already?

A: I never really thought about anything … I’m not very good at making plans for the future. Working as an office assistant was a good experience for me personally, but there are many artists out there who draw interesting manga without any experience in a regular job. About my becoming a mangaka … To me it feels a lot more like I was allowed to become a mangaka rather than that I decided to become one.

[I can’t say how exactly she means the last sentence of course, but maybe it means that she had the financial freedom to choose an unsteady job, because her husband makes enough money for the family, or it could mean that she was given the chance to publish a manga in a proper magazine which is not something all doujinshika achieve, or … ]

Q: Do you prefer coffee or black tea?

A: I often drink black tea in winter, and iced coffee in summer, but my everyday drink is green tea.

Q: You said before that you wouldn’t tell us Yashiro’s first name, but could you maybe give us the first letter only, or another tiny hint?

A: I received a lot of questions regarding Yashiro’s first name, but it’s the same as with sex: If I only insert the tip it won’t stop there. So would it be okay if I didn’t? LOL

Also, Sensei’s favorite character from Golden Kamuy is Ogata.

You can send me questions if you want, in case Sensei decides to do another marshmallow round in the future. I’ll translate the ones I like and throw them at her. My mind went blank for a few minutes when I saw her tweet the other day, so I want to prepare a few questions in advance just in case, because we don’t often get the chance to ask her something. ;)

I believe in the separation of church & state (rpf and the real people involved) 🫡

@powerdadbatman

Pretty sure this is the one: Mapplethorpe, Calla Lily, 1984

It was even sold at Christie’s... Maybe acquired by one Wayne buyer ?

@powerdadbatman Any chance anyone knows which photograph it is?!? Wanna see it in HD! #SoMuchToResearch

Unfortunately Zack didn’t specify and I don’t have a HD quality screencap on hand. Before you start your research, please know Mapplethorpe’s work is mostly NSFW. I mean, full frontal male nudity. All the time. 

However, I think Bruce would choose something less vulgar. Take the flower series for example:

That is totally penis inside of vagina but you know what I mean.

Update: I started watching Drive to Survive, season 7, again, which means episode 3. It’s so weird. I actually forgot for a second that I am watching real life [well, it’s Netflix but still], and not a movie.

It’s late. I need to do the dishes

Confession of a rpf writer

I feel incapable of writing anything Gabico. I think the outpouring of Gabico content around Nico’s podium has rushed the narrative forward at a rhythm I wasn’t ready to engage with and unbalanced the beginning of an outline I was grasping at to follow up on what I wrote last week (I think it was last week?).

Nothing dramatic, just needing to externalize the feelings, I think, as I feel a bit overwhelmed and just need to sit with the original narrative to find again the plot points that felt so overwhelming (as in, inspiring) last week. It’s like the plot moved forward without me and I don’t recognize it anymore..

I probably just need to find a playlist that brings me back ^^;

Beta reader request: Benry (RPS) fic, NC-17

Hi everyone and anyone on the Benry tag,

I am looking for a beta reader for a Ben Affleck/Henry Cavill piece of Real Person Slash Fiction. It is a one-shot, in English, ca. 5000 words long, and involves sex, so definitely NC-17. It’s pretty straight up and no kink, no non consensual, etc. 

It’s not my first fic and I’ve been editing it for almost a week so there shouldn’t be any typos to deal with. I am mostly needing a new set of eyes and stylistic input. I am not a native English speaker, thus sometimes I write weirdly sounding sentences that probably are too French-influenced. Help is welcome with these too.

Track-change users are preferred! I use Word and OneDrive.

If interested, please contact. I would really appreciate your insight before I share this RPS with the world. 

**EDIT: I’d love someone nicely-to-well versed in British English as this one is a Henry’s POV (although in limited third person narrative), and would love to flag American or even Canadian vernacular to change it to a British equivalent.**

~If there is chemistry, this could lead to more~ lol meaning I have another companion ‘chapter’ for this one-shot.

Also, a sample of my writing, although old and has definitely evolved, can be found here.

If anything is true, it’s that Charles will always care for Carlos (and vice versa)

“I feel sorry for Carlos... I’m sorry for him… I feel sorry that for Carlos that means he dropped out of the points.”
