[Open Log] Seas of pink are back again~

Who: You!
What: Cherry Blossom Festival
When: April 10th - 18th
Where: All over town & campus. Wherever you find a cherry tree.
Rating: Flower power.





Pink is everywhere. No matter where you look, you're sure to see the signs of soft pink and white blossoms. There's a fresh spark of life filling the air and just beckoning for everyone to come outside and enjoy the sweet scents of spring. Well, except for you, people with springtime allergies. They just want to make you miserable. But perhaps for everyone else, it was a wonderful amazing time to be had.



There are wonderful spots for picnicking! Frolic inducing atmosphere and the space to do it! Every so often you will see vendors selling treats for the event! Cosplayers taking advantage of their natural environments for photo ops! Hot date spots! Blossoms! Sparkles! Everywhere! Even when it rains.


This log is completely open! You can do whatever you'd like with whomever you'd like whenever you'd like. Just start up a thread and go!

Have fun! Don't forget to add your character to the entry tags! ♥

Yamada was totally prepared for this.

The portly artist can be found almost anywhere; sitting in the shade furiously scratching away in his sketch book (perhaps even conspicuously looking back and forth AT YOUUUUUU as he does) or at a booth (his booth) selling his super sweet doujins. If you don't have cash, he could possibly be persuaded with a sweet snack, especially if it's spelled C-O-L-A.

""The Golden Legend of Princess Buu-ko with Technicolour Aria"... "Fairy Wing Tri-Robot"... "Heavenly Love Between Forbidden Roses in the Holy Garden"... huh."

Mukuro's just reading the ridiculous titles of the doujin, don't mind her.

Excuse you, ridiculous works of art. "Can't decide, can you? Buried deep in the bowels of each anthology, there within lies a carefully crafted special treat aimed at a specific target guidance. That is, delicious fanservice."

Look how damn proud he is.

"It's great to see you taking such a vested interest in my works."

"I uh... they're just really long titles."

She's not buying them.

But, something has her curious.

"What is fanservice?"
mediumdivided: (Default)

[personal profile] mediumdivided 2014-04-18 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
"Scenes designed to excite or titillate and cater the fan instead of to the integrity of the story as a whole. Of course, being fully self-aware of my fan-service scenes I've managed to cleverly integrate it into some of the stories as part of the actual story."

Let that sink in. Let it sink in good.

"Not many other doujinshi artists can make that claim!"

"Uhhh."

Mukuro doesn't even know what to say at this point. All she knows about fanservice is panty shots. That's it. She's just gonna put the book that she sort of half looked (Suspense! Extreme Team Gorgeous Battle!) at back where it originally came from.

"I suppose you being a... uh, Super High School Level Doujinshi Artist means that you are skilled in your craft, I'm not denying that...

And then Yamada's ego swelled three sizes that day.

"Ehuhu." He waved his hand across the table like a magician, and his pudgy finger landed on one book in particular.

"Every true artist has to draw his inspiration from somewhere."

The book he slid towards her was titled Beautiful sisters! Soldier of virtue and Fashionista of deceit!

The last time Kiyotaka tried to be kind of friendly to Hifumi and make amends, it ended in cake death a near-death choking disaster at the festival of the dead. He'd kind of gone back to avoiding him since when he could (and it was probably better for everyone that Ishida never managed to cross paths with him either), but ohanami was a time for the promise of fresh starts...

...and a time for recognizing how fleeting life is, but that was especially bad to think about now. So! Fresh starts it was!

He would start by being supportive of his classmate's pursuits. Yes. Sure, maybe he only approached the stand when Hifumi was looking the other way, but that was surely just a coincidence.

HE STARED AT THE COVERS. JUDGINGLY. These did not look life-enriching at all.

A near death at a festival of the dead seemed like an odd premonition of sorts, but perhaps this festival could be a fresh start indeed, perhaps something of a rebirth.

Frankly, it felt like Yamada's heart decided to rebirth itself up in the middle of his throat at the sight of his other classmate. Gulp. Stiff as a board, he felt a sheen of sweat form on his face. He knew that look.

"H-Hnnn." That was unforgiving look of judgement and criticism like only a Virgo or ornery 2chan user could deliver on no-fap Friday.

Yet, somewhere, deep down, all he wanted was for Kitty Taco to enjoy the beautiful bounty of life-enriching art he had to provide. Such that he could share this beautiful bounty with him. And enrich his life with all this important culture he was sorely missing.

The poor plebeian.

Virgos, am I right.

Those harshly judging red eyes met Yamada's for a second and he realized that maybe he should say something. BE SUPPORTIVE. Cultivate growth and hard work in others. Yes, good.

Too bad he didn't know a damn thing about the world of doujinshi.

"So this is the kind of work you produce?"

Kitty wasn't sure about important culture but it did fit the festival in that the covers were very pink, at least... But what of the contents? He made the grave mistake of opening one.

Suffocating classmate friendship/murdership awkwardness aside, it was almost a guaranteed way to break the ice with Yamada to get him going on a subject he was so clearly passionate about.

"Of course. These are only a meager sample of my collective works. I've had to rebuild my repertoire again ever since..." MURDER SCHOOL OF MURDERING AND MURDERS...

"Anyway, it's important my holy mission continues on so that the unfortunate and douji-virginal like you can have their eyes set wide open."

The stuffy, no-fun-allowed monstrosity that resided in his very soul wanted to protest and tell him to stop wasting time producing material that was a waste of other peoples' time, but his time spent at Smash had made him open his eyes to so many other things already, proving him wrong time and time again about the importance of things that weren't blatantly academic. Besides, he knew that drawing and crafting stories were things that took so much time and practice - he could tell from his own complete inability to do either well - so that alone deserved some kind of respect. Probably.

He skimmed through the booklet, glancing back and forth between the pages and the man who penned them.

"These are all from since you got here? But there are already so many! You must have worked ha---aaawhaahaaa!"

Ah yes. The one with the vibrating arrows.

Yamada leaned across the table and whispered with a dangerous glint in his eye,

"Pick that shit up now motherfucker before I cockslap you."
forgetbeam: (Default)

[personal profile] forgetbeam 2014-06-23 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
He did not pick it up

He was cockslapped to death

Again

What a good send-off.

Oh, Hifumi was selling doujinshi that was... actually nothing new, probably taking the opportunity while it was busy out. He was just going to greet him and go about his day until he noticed something in the corner of his eye.

That was... he played the game...!?

Among the Buu-ko books, on the corner lies a doujinshi with unmistakably the protagonist of Project Zombie on the cover. This was a scraped game, even he had to bite the bullet and ask his connections if he could get one of the few copies that were made- how on Earth did Yamada manage to get to play the game?

"I see you admiring my ode de Project Zombie, Fujisaki Chihiro-dono." Look how proud he was.

HOW ON EARTH INDEED.

"This is..." he was completely lost for words, "h-how did you manage to find a leaked copy?"

You better have completed the game and found the unused stages tucked in the disc.

It was no surprise that Hifumi was peddling his wares in an ideal environment like this, but it didn't stop the hearty sigh and roll of the eyes from his classmate at the sight.

"So you're just allowed to push your smut on the student body at this school?"

"Keh!" Even for someone as rich and prestigious as Togami, Yamada wasn't about to take an insult like that lying down. Thems was fightin words.

"The correct term is ero for erotica and not all of them are like that! Did you even look at any? I have plenty of material aimed at a younger audience, if that's what suits you best."
richasshole: (oof)

[personal profile] richasshole 2014-05-06 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
"Younger audience," he spat back, "You're not serious. Do I look like a customer to you, otaku?"
