so i have to run. i still owe a couple of dozen comments, but for now i share other people's genius:

1. secretbestfriends @ firetrees. i have a cotton-candy-soft-and-sweet spot for gen, and gen-toeing-the-line-to-shounen-ai are especially love. i really like how tsuna explores his relationship with gokudera here. "Is it okay to say we're friends?"

2. kyokou_kuroda IS AWESOME BEYOND THE RANGE OF AWESOME. first she made 4 "teaser" artwork for 4 fics (some of which are my all-time favorites, btw! including "The Cat and His Boy" ♥♥), then she made vongola bunny chibi art ahahahah click if you need an early-morning cuteness boost ^______^

3. and just because i feel like i haven't pimped it enough: beanclam's lovely 8069 art for "The Piper's Promise." maa~ i feel so spoiled with all this gorgeous artwork!! ♥♥

4. have recced a couple of fics at the bottom of my previous post... i added them late so in case you missed them, i'm shamelessly re-reccing. y'all need to reaaaad!

...but i'm running now. ugh bad weather T_T

dear LJ: today i revel in the discovery that lonelybusiness LOVES ME AND POSTED 8059 FICS FOR ME. now everyone go read and adore her as much as i do ♥♥

oh and hey, this doujinshi? perfect way to start the day. the artist says it's gen (and everyone's in-character, too!), but it gave me my 8059 squeefix for what is probably the entire WEEK.

ah, long holidays. don't you just love them? and we're getting two in a row :3

*is enjoying other people's vision of the vongola boys as models/stylists XD XD

list, for my reference:

• untitled modeling agency fic - i just read it today XD was so much fun
  
• [ARTICULATED] @ stargrind
  
• idol!AU snippet by half_sleeping! ♥
  
• idol!AU ("Bright Lights") snippet #2 by half_sleeping new!

must backtrack and harvest older links in near future, if they exist (recs, please?).

god, i really need more time to read. so much goodfic going around!

PS: owner's manuals: ALSO MUCH LOVE. although i haven't really read these in full... will have to do that later, when i can ROFLMAO in relative privacy XD

• The MUKURO Owner's Guide and Maintenance Manual
  
• The HIBARI Owner's Guide and Maintenance Manual

AGGY IS WRITING FOR REBORN!

AGGY IS WRITING FOR REBORN!!

\\\(^o^)///

and she just wrote awesome mukuhiba fic ^_____^ (dies happy).

WELCOME TO THE MAGICAL MYSTERY MAFIA AGGY-CHU! ♥♥♥ i hope you enjoy your stay and that your hibari-muse is generous and bitey-scratchy and all things good and hot and FUN.

i suddenly created a tag called "reborn!recs," because i can't be the only one giggly about this:

Yamapapa Part 1

“To the new member of the Family”

“To naming your child after another man”

i can so see this happening in the manga. especially baby takeshi in a basket orz.
