*_* End of Gekiranger 49 for the win. I KNEW IT. I KNEW IT MAN. Though, the age difference is like.... kind of huge. XD And did he swim to China? Srsly?
Anyway.
I really, really, really can't stand XXX's style.
Guess this is one of my 'I want an arch enemy' whines. Or something.
Can I also put 'I want a boyfriend' in there? Or shall I just go have random wistful thoughts about swimmer boy who I SO COULD HAVE DATED.
Hope scruffy Jo is in class Monday. I like staring at him.
Anyway.
I really, really, really can't stand XXX's style.
Sometimes. She's an awesome writer, she really is, and I admire her work. There's a lot of her work I just LOVE. But her latest work really turns me off. Maybe it's my opinions changing as I learn more about characters and develop my own tastes for them, maybe it's the style she began using, maybe it's just... stuff. But I can't stand it. And the thing is, I'm constantly hearing about how XXX is SUCH a fantastic writer. And I can't deny XXX is a fantastic writer.
In fact, I was looking for fics recently, and I read one of XXX's older stories. And I loved it, just like I used to before I got really into fandom.
But. I can't stand her latest stuff. And I really wish I could.
:-\ I'm also totally jealous, because I'm not as good as she is, or I don't affect people as much, or because hey, I want a fanbase too. But that's just me. ~ponders~ I can't even do that 'I shall claim her as my RIVAL' thing, because ... no. It's not even like she's too far ahead of me, we're just on different paths.
