Do me.

Oh, baby, you know I'm not that kind of girl. ^_^

And your letter is 'oh' - I mean 'O'

I was five and he was six, we rode on horses made of sticks!

Also, fab icon darling! I saw it and squeed a little.

He Wore Black & I Wore White

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

That is Minekura's work, no lie. It's from the original DJ. Take that GojyxHakkai shippers! Yaone x Hakkai was what she PLANNED on doing!

He would always win the fight

[renegadekitsune.livejournal.com]

LMFAO. Don't forget that I *am* one of those pesky GojyoxYaone shippers, darling dear!

(HakkaixYaone is quite nice though, no lie)

Re: He would always win the fight

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

And I have no problem with that. Note how I said 'Gojyo x Hakkai' shippers.

And you're certainly up late.

Re: He would always win the fight

[renegadekitsune.livejournal.com]

Oh lol. That would be why I didn't catch that because I wasn't asleep when I was supposed to be.

dur. Either way, yus. Saiyuki Het for the win!

Re: He would always win the fight

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Hell yes!

Re: He would always win the fight

[smillaraaq.livejournal.com]

Hey, even some of us pesky 585ers also like the HxY het, you know! *pouts*

Re: He would always win the fight

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Oh, I know.

Please half-ignore me. It's lingering bitterness over the fact that I've written half the het in the entire fandom.

[lightprincess89.livejournal.com]

This looks like fun!

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

E for you!

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Jeeze, chill! Shesh, you're away from the computer for twelve straight hours and everybody gets so twitchy.

Just for being impatient, Z.

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Yep!

[superlazygirl.livejournal.com]

Woooo Firewater! :D

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Yep! I'm so sad that female focalist singing on Bad Bad World isn't a regular.

[smillaraaq.livejournal.com]

That's Jennifer Charles from Elysian Fields (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elysian_Fields_%28band%29), if you want to hear more of her voice. (She's also done one other song with Firewater, creepy murder ballad "The Circus" -- it's sort of like their version of "Where the Wild Roses Grow", an unsettling murderer/victim duet...)

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Oh man, do you have any of those that you could upload? (The Firewater, and the Elysian Fields. I adore 'Where The Wild Roses Grow' - I listen to the Nick Cave version.)

[smillaraaq.livejournal.com]

I can definitely upload the Firewater for you (and my brain was cramping up earlier, she's actually on one other song, the jazzy "Mr. Cardiac"); but alas, my Elysian Fields CD went missing a while back, lost in moving or loaned and unreturned, and that was before I started burning copies of everything. :(

You can at least sample a bunch of stuff on their Myspace page (http://www.myspace.com/elysianfieldsnyc)...

If you like her voice, did I ever send you anything by Snakefarm (http://www.amazon.com/Songs-My-Funeral-Snakefarm/dp/B00000I0QR)? Also, you might like Toni Halliday (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toni_Halliday) from Curve, if you didn't already grab all the stuff I uploaded in my last music post.

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Oh, Elysian Fields are awesome!

And I would love the Firewater. And nope, I've never heard of Snakefarm or Toni Halliday.

[tobu-ishi.livejournal.com]

I approve of your playlist choices. *shameless self-promotion, huzzah* (http://tobuishi.deviantart.com/art/KILL-ZUKO-Title-Page-60109627)

It's Zuko's Baby

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's awesome!

First, I was like, 'no way would Zuko be a good Bill,' and then I was like, 'oh my motherfucking god, it works creepily well.'

Speaking of pimpage, have you seen the vid to 'Without Honor or Humanity?' it's on livevideo, and it's fantastic.

Re: It's Zuko's Baby

[tobu-ishi.livejournal.com]

No, no I have not! (Though I did once find a crossover AMV to the Kill Bill trailer that used the art I just linked you to at the end. *was startled, and then way more tickled about it than anyone who's just been plagarized ought to be...*) Link? :3

Re: It's Zuko's Baby

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

I will if you will.

Here's the vid:

Where was the trailer remix?

Re: It's Zuko's Baby

[tobu-ishi.livejournal.com]

Finally remembered! It's here! (http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=GVXxpnYBrpQ&feature=related)

Re: It's Zuko's Baby

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Oh, that was awesome!

Re: It's Zuko's Baby

[tobu-ishi.livejournal.com]

Isn't it? The timing's brilliant. ♥ The only flaw I can find is Zuko having the "She cut her way through eighty-eight bodyguards?" converation with Aang, whom he supposedly...uh...helped kill. (Though I might just be picky because Budd is forever Jet in my own little KILL ZUKO AU brain.)

Re: It's Zuko's Baby

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

I had that exact same thought. Aang really didn't make much sense there - almost anyone else would have: Iroh, Ozai, any of the dangerous ladies, Song, but Jet is just screamingly appropaite with the whole 'we like each other but hate each other' vibe.

[studentrobin.livejournal.com]

If I do this, may I list the songs here? I no longer post in my main journal, and this one is just for RP.

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Go for it. And 'A'.

Dar Williams Obsessed I Am.

Re: Dar Williams Obsessed I Am.

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Another Dar Williams fan! Fantastic!

Re: Dar Williams Obsessed I Am.

[studentrobin.livejournal.com]

Oh man, you like Dar Williams? That's great! I absolutely adore her.

Re: Dar Williams Obsessed I Am.

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

She's awesome.

Re: Dar Williams Obsessed I Am.

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

She's fantastic.
