I want to avoid comms until this flailing about Ashita no Kioku subsides. I got the video and I like the song more now, I will conceed. I think it's been said a million times already, but I really like the concept of the video. I want Ohno to paint a pretty tree and swing on my walls. But I still think the song is nothing special. Where's the Muteki video! I want that one.

I'm up stupidly early on a Sunday and that makes me sad. The crows were at it again but it was probably a combo of them and my internal clock saying that it's time for work, don't be late! It would have been a perfect morning to finish my laundry if it wasn't rainy and miserable outside. My bathroom is in desperate need of a workover... I am going to steal some cleanser from work tomorrow and try scrubbing my tub. There's some kind of black buildup on the bottom that isn't mold because it won't go away with my mold cleaner. I want to know what Ben's mom used to attack their toliet because it was sparkling when they left and you don't even want to know what it looked like before.

I'm meeting [livejournal.com profile] aeslis in Shibuya later today to sell some stuff at Mandarake. I thought I would sleep in until noon and then not even leave the house until 2 but it seems like I'll be ready to go by noon or 1. Haha And then! I'm meeting an old classmate at 5:30 for dinner. Kumiko and I were in middle school together. Or maybe it was high school? In Singapore. She moved to SAS and then I went back to Canada. She went to university in Hawaii and she just moved back to Tokyo. I bet she's got a wicked accent now. I'm so excited to see her!

[livejournal.com profile] happenstanc3 did this kink list thing and I wrote something for her. It's really shitty but it's something. It took 45 minutes and I didn't even get to the happy ending. Maybe I'll do the list too; it might help the creative juices.

Okay, I copied everything into word and I have to pare a list of 388 down to 100. This is supposed to be common tropes/themes in fic? I want to see this somewhere:
3. Aliens make them have sex (fuck or die; fertility rituals; intoxication; taking one for the team)


31. Grunge (dirty and sweaty, needing a shower; actual mud/dirt elements in a sex scene)

"Holy mother of Christ, you stink," Nino exclaimed, pushing Ohno as far out of arms reach as possible.

Ohno's cheeks were sunburned and windchapped, his hair flattened in most places from long hours under his cap, the front sticking nearly straight up. His clothes had salt rings from the spray and his hands dry from the water.

"No hello-kiss?"

"Not a chance in fucking hell until you shower. Ew, and don't touch me with those hands until you've watched them with soap. Twice."

"But I missed you, Kazu," Ohno makes to take Nino's hands and only manages to catch one. "Didn't you miss me?"

"No, I didn't. Now, let me go! I think I'm going to throw up and I'm not even near the ocean." Nino squirms and tries to twist his hand free but only manages to get himself close enough for Ohno to wrap an arm around his waist and press him into the wall beside the shoe cupboard.

"It was so lonely," Ohno whispers in Nino's ear, sliding a knee between his thighs. "On the boat, by myself."

"Well, no body forced you to--" Nino stops to stiffle a moan, willing himself not to be turned on by the slow grind of Ohno's hips and the way his breath feels against his neck, "stay for 25 hours. You could have come over."

Nino can feel the salt crystalized in the weave of Ohno's shirt and taste it on his lips, he can smell the wind on his skin like cologne which would be fine--more than fine, it's actually one of Nino's turn-ons--if Ohno's hands didn't reek of fish.

Nino pushes off the wall, guiding Ohno backwards through the apartment, peeling off sea-stained clothes, navigating around the dinning room table and sofa towards the bathroom.

"You know, we're just going to get sweaty and gross again if we have sex after showering." Ohno is more intelligent than most people give him credit for. Especially about things of a more carnal nature, which Nino adores him for.

"What are you suggesting?" Nino asks as Ohno tugs his t-shirt over his head and dropping it into the bathroom sink.

"You shower with me. Get in."

The PV makes the song for me. Like you, I wasn't too impressed by the bit played at The Quiz Show, but they look SO ADORABLE IN THE PV. I love how Aiba is the only one who fidgets around during the last panning out scene x:

TEE HEE. Yeah, I'm a very visual person. I still think the lyrics are grade A lame. "What colour tomorrow are you painting? What colour future is waiting?" Yeah. But that's not their fault, they're just the singing/dancing monkeys.

This is where not knowing what the lyrics mean works in my favor. Most of the time I miss out on a lot (I DIDN'T REALIZE HAPPINESS WAS ACTUALLY SO DAMN CUTE) but sometimes I can love songs that sound good but have shithouse lyrics.

(and yes I am working on finishing this fic for you as we speak.)

i haven't watched quiz show so it was my ashita no kioku captured my virgin ear-rape!!! (that didn't make sense, did it.)

so anyway - the lyrics are very arashi, even though they are lame, i have to agree, but on the whole it's all 嵐っぽい so i'm actually really liking this song. XDDD

i like how the concept ties up with the whole 'future time' thing in the photos. 'ashita no kioku' really resounds here. i need to check out the credits for the PV, if they broadcast it at all. do they broadcast it? the director and the producer? :S i hope they dooooo.

The lameness of Ashita no Kioku lyrics doesn't surprise me - it is an Arashi song and not one written by them. But the video is gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous. I love the tree and the flower of pictures. It definitely makes the song.
