Purple Hearts

When I listed down trope_bingo prompts I wished to veto, I ended up with 20 but since only 12 is allowed to be opted out, I took out 8 of the unwanted prompts and hoped not to get them. Just my luck, those 8 prompts that I may not have wanted are ALL on my card. What did I ever do to deserve this?

FOOD PORN	MIND GAMES	KID FIC	AU: HIGH SCHOOL/ COLLEGE	AU: FAIRY TALE/ MYTH
AU: ROMANCE NOVEL	AU: MUNDANE	FOOD AND COOKING	SLAVE FIC	LOVE TRIANGLE
UNHAPPY ENDING	AU: FANTASY	FREE SPACE	PERSPECTIVE FLIP	TORTURE/ INTERROGATION
TRAPPED IN A DREAM	AU: SPACE	AU: SUPERNATURAL	FUCK OR DIE	REUNION
SPANKING	POWER DYNAMICS	CROSSOVER	FAKE RELATIONSHIP	SEX POLLEN

Here I go again. It will be a miracle if I can finish a bingo this round. Anyway, here's my trope_bingo card for Round 7.

FRIENDS TO LOVERS/ FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS	MEET THE PARENTS/FAMILY	LOSS OF INNOCENCE	AU: FAIRY TALE/ MYTH	DARK FIC
LOCKED IN	RIVALS TO LOVERS	APHRODISIACS	FOOD PORN	POWER DYNAMICS
CELEBRATORY KISS	FIRST TIME/ LAST TIME	FREE SPACE	AU: HIGH SCHOOL/ COLLEGE	AU: FUSION
FORK IN THE ROAD	CHARACTER IN DISTRESS	CURTAIN FIC	UNIFORM KINK	AU: SUPERNATURAL
AU: OTHER	ROAD TRIP	FOOD AND COOKING	PRESUMED DEAD	EPISTOLARY

Not happy with my card :/ No complaints though since I'd probably end up writing only 1 or 2 stories.

Guess who's turning 22 today...



HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SHIN-CHAN!!!

May you always, always shine, my dearest son☺

Someone's turning 28 today...



HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TSUNE-KUN!!!

Note: Some pics in this collage are scans by silverwind@tumblr, some I can't remember where they're from, just snagged them from Google images.

All these preview videos are making me desperate to see this play.



Look at Shin-chan (0:30-0:39) and Tsune-kun (1:14-1:23) go!

Oh, and fun fact. Shintaro plays the role of Iinuma Sadakichi and the real-life grandson of Iinuma Sadakichi went to see the play last night.

The Tenimyu icon will now represent all stage play-related posts until I can come up with a better icon for it.

Anyway. Mononofu Shiroki Tora kicked off successfully yesterday and I can't wait to have this play on DVD. I wish they'd release it on DVD, damn it. Otherwise, I'll have to find a way to teleport to Japan and right into the Ten'nōsu Galaxy Theater.



I am speechless. They are all beautiful. (And just as I expected, the production people are deliberately keeping Tsune and Shin-chan away from each other, IDEK anymore). Beware of pic spam.

I'm so excited I can't breathe! It's 3 days til opening day. I can't wait to get this stage play on DVD. I hope it's released soon after the play is over.



Look at Shin-chan! And Tsune-kun! And Ryunosuke! And Atsushi! Everyone! They all look amazing. The sword-fighting lessons did pay well. I can't wait to see them all on stage. I wish I would've made it to Japan for this but I'll have to settle with the DVD. Tickets for the Tokyo shows are sold out anyway. I think same goes for the Nagoya and Osaka shows.

If anyone from Japan (Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka or its neighboring cities/prefectures) happens to see this post, let me know if you will be watching this.

There are so many things I'm freaking over and I can't organize my thoughts to figure out which to post but whatever... just let me archive this here...

Someone explain to me why this child is so pretty...

Then Shin-chan as Fushimi Saruhiko in the K (Arousal of King) stage play is just driving me insane...
