do you believe you can walk on water?

now that he's got a non-sucky version of Winamp, Semagic, and Trillian installed so that, uh, I have stuff other than Firefox to play with when Crawford has internets. (Holy run-ons, Batman!)

Before I get into an anime review of sorts, I have fic to announce:

For We Are the Beautiful Thieves [20. Fatherly Misery]
Schuldig went back to his magazine. "It's not like you really ever gave a shit about me anyway. Or what I thought." He turned the page, keeping everything casual. "Go ahead. Leave me here by myself. See if I care."

Crawford pulled the magazine away from Schuldig's face and looked into his eyes. "You know better than to think I think that." You should know I don't think like that.

"I just figured that you'd want to live a normal life by yourself, maybe get married, have a kid or two, and pretend that the last twenty seven years of your life was a lie or a dream or something. Then you'd forget I ever existed and…" He shrugged again. "I don't care."

Now. Since my laptop screen and everything is 58948594854 times better than Sain's is, I watch my anime on it via Ada's awesomeness as a USB file holder. I connected to the internet and Nat and I watched Zetsuai ~BRONZE~ together.

Contains some spoilers, though you won't ever probably watch this, but in the off chance you will, etc. etc.

Plot: ** (wangst and over the top melodramatics does not count as a plot)
Realism: *
Characters: * (Kouji: rock star; Izumi: soccer player. that's it. Where are the personalities?)
Visual: *** (minus two stars for spider figures)
Voice acting: ***** (why yes I am a biased fangirl why do you ask)
Overall: ** 1/2

In short: Take the angst from Weiss Kreuz. Multiply that by like a thousand. Then throw in some crying, exaggerated body proportions, plot contrivance after plot contrivance, and you have the sequel to Zetsuai ~ 1989.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to friggin watch something good. Like Slayers Excellent. Then after that I have Papa to KISS IN THE DARK, which Nat's looking forward to, but I am not. More shitty BL, this one has not only Koyasu, but Miki Shinichirou and Midorikawa Hikaru.

oh dear lord.
