Okay, so I'm fourty-five minutes late, but that's what I get for hanging with my brother upstairs while he's playing video games ^^; Now, on to the good stuff...

1) Happy Birthday Seishirou! It's slightly belated, but oh well ^^ He's already been sung to and I'm tone-deaf anyway, so I'll leave everyone without my horrific rendition of 'Happy Birthday' ^^

2) Sexy new layout at Enigmatic Eccentricity. Seishirou, of course. And this is why you should read my blog. It's prettier ^^

3)
Inspired by [livejournal.com profile] rainbow_gossip ^^ Take, use, share, I don't need credit, just don't claim that you made it. And I'm a feedback ho and would love to know if you're using it because it makes me feel special.

4) S/S Goodness. Featuring bondage!Subaru, care of Audrey, who rocks . Enjoy ^^

Actually. I have. I have them right here. And I don't know how much you know culturally, but saying it formally would be like saying I love you to.. like I said... an audience. Especially odd as well, considering he went to the trouble of familiarizing (de-formalizing if you with) IN that specific sentence with the use boku and kimi.

It honestly sounds brutally retarded to go from the informal pronoun to the formal verb use. It really does. Like a child trying to say I love you to a business executive he's never met.

I don't know how much japanese you actually speak... I'm judging not a lot, as you're way off base here. Seriously, using "shiteru" when you tell someone you love them is common practice. The other way is almost never used in a modern setting.

Otherwise, you are indeed right, Seishirou would never go around tossing out "ro" or "zou" endings like Kamui's little offensive self... but this is a special case. Props for noticing his speaking patterns, though.

All I can say, is that if anyone wants to be anal retentive enough to make me fix it, they'd better tell me what to fix it _to_ *points to the bit about not knowing Japanese verb forms yet and is vaguely annoyed* Nitpick all you like, just do it somewhere else, please.

Oh-kay... ^_^;;;;

....And that's all I'll say on that subject. Whoever is right or wrong, we'll all find out in the end. Thanks for the input. ^^;
