Old friends of a sort and yaoi fuel

[kjpepper]

Over years of random scribblings, I've got quite a few characters that have wandered through the brainmeats. They're a little like undiscovered actors that keep filming pilots, hoping that one will be picked up by a network... the shows, in this case, the fragments/beginnings of stories, never quite get picked up, but the characters sometimes stick around until something opens up for them later.

I'm still processing out two stories currently, one being the Nevershire webcomic/novelthing and the other being the Four Brothers/Ruby Sand book. This evening I was reminded of one of my better past characters from a retelling of a Midsummer Night's Dream I was playing with a few years ago but never got very far on. The "Helena" character out of this was an disgustingly beautiful bishonen prep school student of ambiguous sexuality named Jimmy Toro (short for Hajime)... and ever since I remembered him he's been running around my head being fabulous and spraying gay glitter all over my brain. It's all pretty hilarious really, but it's good too. The Nevershire story's protagonist needs a best friend.

Related to this, and looking for a face to work from for Jimmy, I typed "pretty Japanese boys" into Google Image Search and thus discovered MatsuJun. *whimper, fan self*. Um, yeah, pretteh indeed.

Speaking of pretty man candy and all, time for season finale of LOST.

If you like Matsumoto Jun, then I think you'll like some of his J-dramas. Hana Yori Dango is a fairly solid drama and he is matched with 3 other attractive men. He also was in Gokusen when he was a bit younger and has a movie, "I love my little sister", aka "Boku wa Imoto ni koi wo suru".

Well, he (and I use the term loosely) certainly fits the description for your character.
But me...I like my men to look like men and my women to look like women. I tend towards the extremes in both cases.
Come to think of it...one of each would be lovely...

lol, understood. I apparently don't really run to type at all, but I do unerringly find out at some point that every person I've ever dated has been a gamer of one sort or another, lol.

I don't run to type much in who I actually date, it's more a 'who will I think looks pretty in a movie or a picture' kind of thing.

That is an utterly FABULOUS description of how characters work. And some are pushier than others--I get a few who refuse to wait around and keep coming back with more material.

ever since I remembered him he's been running around my head being fabulous and spraying gay glitter all over my brain.

I LOL'd.
