    <content type="html">So yes... I have another favorite band and this time it's a boy band.&amp;nbsp; (Who would have thought it?)&amp;nbsp; But yes, Tokio&amp;nbsp;Hotel is the Lord's gift to us!&amp;nbsp; (Lord,&amp;nbsp;God, Buddha, Shiva,&amp;nbsp;WHATEVER you want to call them.)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And of course I have a HUMONGOUS crush on Bill Kaulitz.&amp;nbsp; I really love Bill's twin bro Tom too but... Bill is just EXACTLY my type.&amp;nbsp; Oh... but of course, I've also developed quite the twincest craze&amp;nbsp;when it comes to the Kaulitz twins.&amp;nbsp; *smiles sheepishly*&amp;nbsp; What can I say?&amp;nbsp; They're both GORGEOUS and I can just totally see them together.&amp;nbsp; X3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a&gt;&lt;img height="188" alt="" width="320" border="0" src="http://pics.livejournal.com/kyokins06/pic/00005fdd/s320x240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;lt;-----&amp;nbsp; This is the lovely Tokio Hotel band.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And this, is the lovely Bill.&amp;nbsp; -----&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/kyokins06/pic/00007bz5/"&gt;&lt;img height="240" alt="" width="167" border="0" src="http://pics.livejournal.com/kyokins06/pic/00007bz5/s320x240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm currently working on making&amp;nbsp; a few icons but since I've never made an icon before they probably won't turn out real great.&amp;nbsp;</content>

&lt;/span&gt;With slim fingers he pinches the bridge of his nose.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;What little alcohol he had consumed in the past few hours was getting to him and producing a none too gentle throb in his head.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;

&lt;/span&gt;Well it was past dark, the moon had already reached its zenith in the sky and she was collapsed in a chair somewhere drunk off her ass.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 9.5pt;

COLOR: #8b7967; FONT-FAMILY: Georgia"&gt;The door opens up onto the veranda and breaks Edward’s train of thought.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;He glances behind him to see another man walking smoothly out into the fresh night air.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The doors are closed and the noise is subdued if even just barely.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 9.5pt;

FONT-FAMILY: Georgia"&gt;Edward notices the voice is a deep bass and does, despite the circumstances, lighten up the atmosphere just a tad.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;He once again glances to his side to see the man leaning up against the cool railing on the veranda.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 9.5pt; COLOR: #8b7967; FONT-FAMILY: Georgia"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 9.5pt; COLOR: #8b7967; FONT-FAMILY: Georgia"&gt;The man is tall, much taller than him and must at least be 6’3” if not more.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;His shoulders and hips are broad, giving him a full look.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Through the cotton suit he’s wearing, Edward can just make out large muscles on his arms and legs.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;His neck is thick but not in an ugly way while Edward can just make out a faint cleft to the man’s strong chin.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The man has short black hair that makes Edward slightly self-conscious of his own chin-length blond hair.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 9.5pt;

FONT-FAMILY: Georgia"&gt;Edward doesn’t answer, too preoccupied with staring at the man’s face.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;His face is clean shaven, lips thin, nose set high on his face, eye brows thick and full of black hair, small and barely slanted eyes, and a tall forehead covered with messy black bangs.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;What captivates Edward is the tan shine to the man’s skin and the golden gleam to the man’s eyes.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-SIZE: 9.5pt;

&lt;/span&gt;He frowns and looks down at the marble covering the floor of the veranda.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Surely he hadn’t complimented him.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;

    <title>Tokyo Babylon</title>
    <published>2008-06-11T08:11:26Z</published>
    <updated>2008-07-10T20:49:04Z</updated>
    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;So I watched the two OVAs of Tokyo Babylon earlier today (after I got home from the doctors... *cough*)&amp;nbsp;and it made me crave the series!&amp;nbsp; So it is now 2:55am Wednesday June 11, 2008 and I finished reading the Tokyo Babylon series.&amp;nbsp; I started it between 8pm and 10pm Tuesday June 10, 2008.&amp;nbsp; I just have to say that it was the saddest thing I have ever read in my life.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://www.e-monsite.com/photos/ivoqxi4pw37su61zj4vp.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are three major characters: (from left to right) Seishiro Sakurazuka, Subaru Sumeragi, and Subaru's twin sister Hokuto Sumeragi.&amp;nbsp; Subaru is &lt;strong&gt;the&lt;/strong&gt; main character but Seishiro and Hokuto are major characters as well.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;This was probably the saddest series I've ever read.&amp;nbsp; I almost cried when reading the last volume (volume 7).&amp;nbsp; The worst part of it all was that Subaru had just realized his feelings for Seishiro when his world came tumbling down, pretty much literally.&amp;nbsp; It had to be the saddest thing ever.&amp;nbsp; I feel so sorry for Subaru.&amp;nbsp; Not only does he lose the man he loves in more than one way... but he also loses his sister.&lt;br /&gt;Oh man... I feel like I'm going to cry just thinking about it!&amp;nbsp; So let's go on to more happy things.&amp;nbsp; There is a sequel (apparently, although O have yet to read it) and Kamui is in it!&amp;nbsp; Now I know it's not the same as in TRC but a girl can still hope!&amp;nbsp; So yes, I love Subaru.&amp;nbsp; He's everything I'd like to be and everything I'm looking in a partner.&amp;nbsp; XD&amp;nbsp; He's kind, he loves animals, he's just... amazing.&lt;br /&gt;So yes... in the beginning of Tokyo Babylon (and up until the last chapter of the 7th volume) Subaru looks like this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://clamp-series.iespana.es/manga/Subaru-kun.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but then... there's a time skip and he looks like this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://www.anime-junctions.net/aj/poze-capitole/x-subaru-sumeragi.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately trying to find pictures of him younger is a bitch.&lt;br /&gt;Oh yeah!&amp;nbsp; Subaru is 16 in the beginning... huh... who would of thought it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So anyways, I'm merely rambling because I didn't want to go to bed sad about what I'd just read but I really &lt;strong&gt;need&lt;/strong&gt; to go to bed.&amp;nbsp; So now that I've kinda sorta got the sadness outa my system I shall go to bed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content>
