Have sudden urge to read unrequited love!fics

[slumber]

Have been busy friending ASoUE communities, since I've decided to have an ASoUE-themed layout next (Jude, it was nice staring at you, but let's face it. You distract me far too easily.) Speaking of which: Does anyone know of any site that has good ASoUE images? Help would be good, thanks, and rewarded with cookies. Oh, and I have discovered something interesting about three people on my flist and violetklaus in the process, as well. *giggles* I've also properly spoiled myself, but let's not dwell too much on that. *covets the ninth book asap*

Also. I think I've an inherent aversion to any one fandom's main ship--it's a wonder I've stayed a Harry/Draco fan for so long, but it's probably part of the pattern. I'm a staunch Brian/Michael shipper, for one thing, finding only very few people on my flist who think the same (and consequently clinging to them for support), and my other (former) fandoms have shown similar inclinations, like in Weiss Kreuz (Yohji/Ken instead of Aya/Ken), YuuYuu Hakusho (Yuusuke/Kurama instead of Kurama/Hiei), Gundam Wing (Wufei/Duo instead of Heero/Duo), Fushigi Yuugi (Tasuki/Nuriko instead of Hotohori/Nuriko), and so on, I imagine, Harry Potter being the exception because this is where I've learned to multi-ship.

And it's all the same story, actually, the same sort of appeal that involves some form of unrequited love and a need for a happy ending despite everything. I've been converted to more than one ship because of a piece of fanfiction that involves the three characters in some sort of triangle involving cold lovers and unrequited love or something very similar, and there's always something about the sheer selflessness of that sort of love that's always appealed so much to me, and I miss reading about it. I wanted to feel that sort of quiet hurting again, for some reason or other, today, while I was friending various communities. Just, randomly.

ETA: "I just don't want to see you throw your life away on some loser when I could be treating you so much better. I'm jealous, numb-nut." just about sums it up. *giggles*

Brian/Michael? Who is Brian? Or rather which fandom should be the first question...

[marauderthesn.livejournal.com]

Just out of curiousity, if you're a Brian/Michael, shipper, what's your opinion about Ben?

[jewelofsaturn.livejournal.com]

Mmm, ASoUE is the best thing eveh! >D Looking forward to the layout! I'm not sure where to find high-quality images, though I'm pretty much positive that the communities on livejournal will be more than helpful. ;D

Yay violetklaus *coughcough*

Why was Ken involved in any of your WK pairings anyway??? WHYYY?? Youji/Schu or even Aya/Youji, they're hot...or, y'know, Schu/Nagi...need I go on? Cease the Ken love!

Whoops, sorry, forgot that not everyone may be familiar with them, but they're from Queer as Folk. :P Brian's actor is my PB for Roger, actually, should give you something of an idea, and the boy he's mainly shipped with in the show, which is an out-and-out gay show, mind, is Justin, whose actor is SE!Justin's PB. :D

Mmm, well, I've only seen up until S3, but Ben is--I have no problems with him, not really. He's safe. But he seems like such a scapegoat for the show, you know? Like the producers know fans won't want Michael all alone so they introduce a somewhat perfect boy to distract Michael while JUSTIN OMG TAKES BRIAN AWAY THE BASTARD. :| (Clearly, I got a little bit carried away towards the end, but. Um. Yeah.)

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Haha, I hope so, although joining stillness comms may not have been the best course of action. *ponders*

*snickers* I fell over and told Lissa. :|

[slumber.livejournal.com]

I can agree with Youji/Schu. !!! AND now that I remember that--CRAWFORD/KEN.

[jimwise.livejournal.com]

Brian/Michael.. is one of them Hal Sparks and the other is the tall character that's with the little blonde boy?

(I have obviously only seen one or two episodes, please bear with me! Haha.)

If sooo, then YEEP, because I love them together. Perhaps I only saw the one episode that they had OMG so much chemistry! I don't understand this whole Brian/Justin (I think?) that my flist keeps going on about.. I thought the blonde boy was in HIGH school or something? It kind of skeeved me when I first found out.

[jewelofsaturn.livejournal.com]

Mmmm, perhaps I could help you find some images?

... Did you, Evylove? :| I'm too cool clearly.

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, yeah, that's them, alright. XD

They have years of friendship between them, they know each other SO MUCH and, wah. Yeah, blond is, like, 17. :| Brian's 29.

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Oooh, that would be wonderful. XD

I did, yes. *snerk* If that's what you call it. ;;)

[gutterqueen.livejournal.com]

Let's see pictures?
Well, I find a lot of movie pictures on actor sites, like here and here. Also, the Snicket Source is nifty, and has some chapter pictures, I'm pretty sure.
Also, *cough* go Baudecest.


And Brian/Michael is love.

[jimwise.livejournal.com]

EW THAT IS SO FREAKING GROSS. I'm only 20 and sometimes even eighteen year old's skeeve me out! (ps, I really hope I'm spelling that word right. I'm not quite sure if I've ever written it down before!)

And Hal Sparks is so clearly in love with him. WOE.

[jimwise.livejournal.com]

Annnnd by eighteen year old's, I clearly mean eighteen year old boys. None of you kids weird me out. :o)
