Absolute Boyfriend & Yu-Gi-Oh ref.

It's the middle of finals. One week from now, I will be gone from the Net and in Austria.

And yet, I took a walk out to the library today, paid a fine for burning a book (by ACCIDENT, I leant it against the cooker while, well, cooking and failed to notice it was catching on fire until the scorching scent grew overwhelming by which point the cover's corners and the edges of the inner pages was burnt black), and borrowed some books. Including the first series of a volume called Absolute Boyfriend which I now want the rest of, for reasons which range from pretty boys (shallllllow) to the fact that it sounds like Peach Girl with a sci-fi angle. Peach Girl being a really girly shoujo manga I borrowed from the Somerville library, and have memories of being fascinated by how incredibly bad it was.

Absolute Boyfriend doesn't even have good reviews!

On a more amusing note, one of the books I borrowed was Son of Rock by Gordon Korman, and it had the following quotation:

The musicians of the Concussed festival were a motley lot who belonged on Yu-Gi-Oh cards more than any concert stage.


Dude, if I saw a band that dressed like any of my favorite monsters (including Harpie's Brother and Fire Sorceress), I'd so buy their music just for the hell value of it.

P.S. Savior, MSN is being a bitch to me for a change and not letting me see your messages or even reply, even though I signed in and out to try to fix it. I'm going to turn off my comp, restart and see if that fixes it.

Fixed. Also, since if I'm writing really fluffy het fic because of a request, O ri Chori from Lagaan is probably not the best thing to have playing in the background.

You cook like I do. D:

But I've read a bit of Absolute Boyfriend. :3

... Harpie's Brother. *~*

A danger to all things around?

Oh? How far?.

Harpie's Brother is dead fucking sexy. He really, really is.

Pretty much. vov My best friend doesn't let me cook anymore.

Not far. :D; I didn't like it.

XD Definitely.

Eep X_X That sucks... o.o;

But yay for... fun reading? ^.^

xDDDD Wouldn't it be a bonus if the band rocked, too? ;D

Hey! I've seen that movie! ... I think... it was a while ago @_@;

It does, but at least I got to borrow books again! And yes, fun reading.

It would be great if the band rocked, but the guy from Absolute Boyfriend that works for the company looked a little like the Dark Magician.

Oh? XD It was a big Bollywood hit.

xD Very true. I need to do the same - pay for a book (or two) that were ubber late so I can get back to checkin' books out.

o.o Ooooh sweet... xD Though, Dark Magician isn't the best looking card... he's definitely not bad (to me).

Yup! I looked it up. I saw it ... *chintap* 3 years ago, I think, on tape. I really liked it, from what I remember xD
