Re: About 101,
Yes, absolutely.
Hm...I do wonder if I'm just choosing to be blind/obstinate in this aspect. Not good at discarding a pairing, so I'll just have to agree to disagree. Especially because the reason I can't quite ship Gojyo and Goku is because their relationship seems too brotherly by far. yet, has drawn it. And RP'd it...well, that was then. *shrug*
Augh, if anything else didn't make me ashamed to ship 393...*cringe* Not important...o_O;?
Funny thing about fanfiction is one very rarely finds fic that fits exactly how you see the characters. More often than not the best you can hope for is a writer who writes well enough to convince you at least for the duration of the story. But again, that may be O.T.
Re: About 101,
,i>Annoyed, but Generally Annoyed, not Annoyed At You, honest.It was late, and I was tired, and I came off a little more "rawwwrgh don't write this!!!" than I intended. My bad. With Saiyuki, with the well-rounded and yet still open to interpretation characters Minekura has created, you can make an argument that any pairing can be done, and done well. My beef is more with the people who think that the ikkou has to pair off, and that not including Goku is the same as leaving him out. I mean, in a group of close friends, if two of you are a couple, that doesn't mean the others are being left out and have to start screwing, right? Not all relationships have to be sexual ones, and fandom forgets this.
I love Goku. He's a fantastic character, and Saiyuki is his story - not Sanzo's, not Ukoku, Goku's. It's the idea that in order for him to be a complete character he has to be in a sexual relationship that bothers me
that, and the excessive woobification of Sanzo in the majority of Sanzo/Goku fics that I've read, but that's a different rant.)And I completely agree that Gojyo and Goku's relationship is a brotherly one, and that's the reason why, while I wouldn't ship them, I can buy them having a brief, probably one-time sexual relationship where Gojyo answers Goku's questions about the birds and the bees and ends up, like, teaching him how to jerk off. Something like that, not snuggles and declarations of love, is what I meant.
And signed, on your comment about fanfiction. There are very few fics I've read that come close to my interpretation of these characters, but that's fine - it's my interpretation! Not yours, or anybody else's. :)
Re: About 101,
That's why I was very lucky to get my introduction to the fandom (in fact, they were the reason I even became interested in Saiyuki) through X-Parrot's fics, which are mostly gen and focus on the ikkou as a whole group of people.
Hope that made any sense.
I can understand why, I suppose
Mm-m, thought sadist!Sanzo worries me more.Funny thought, anime!Sanzo does seem to vary between angsting at the drop of a hat and overt cruelty :P...naaw, the anime just fails at concise characterization, old news, I know.
Hurrah for different interpretations :D
BTW, I hope the commenter under whose comment we're having this discussion doesn't mind. Sorry. >3>;
