getbackers fic rec, and babble

Go, and read [livejournal.com profile] incandescens' fanfiction. I recommend Opening The Way, which is a wonderfully plotted Getbackers fic, mind you; I would read anything she write. For that matter, read her Saiyuki and Bleach fanfiction.

So, I have been really behind on fandom, RL tend to suck any kind of enjoyment out of my leisure activities. See my surprise when I'm trying to figure out what has been happening in Getbackers for the past few months. All I can say is; Paul?! What?! Not that I didn't see something but WHAT?! And der Kaiser?! aaskjh;gisjd;kgm;'! Why doesn't my f-list inform me of these things? I'm so terribly confused, really, really confused, yet it somehow makes sense in my mind, and [livejournal.com profile] incandescens, thank you for writing Unforgiven, sure I can only understand half the implied back-story, but by the gods I'm ridiculously happy.

In short; can someone point me towards the direction of good Getbackers summary of what the hell has been happening, and maybe provide me a chart of who is related to whom, who is currently in the phase of betrayal/death/angst/attempting to recover the past/etc/. Thanks.

P.S. The Gale Emperor is all kind of awesome.

[livejournal.com profile] peroxide_fic, which you probably have read (everyone seem to have), but I'm about to say something that will probablt get me lynched. I like about half of her stuff, the other half I'm a bit 'meh' about mainly because her characterisation doesn't gel with my idea of the characterisation. Hence, it is more of a difference of opinion than anything else.

I also feel, that as an author, she has reached a plateau, and it is frustrating seeing someone who is talented not pushing beyond the limit.

I'm slightly in love with Monsterbrat's 'Bleach' fanfction (http://www.fanfiction.net/u/41159/), and I don't know why. There's something quiet and reflective that I just adore. Specifically, read The Replacement.

And that's all I can find so far.

AUGHFGFJDLLLJKFG!!!!

I know, I picked up the most recent GB manga vols and went ???!!!*____* I wish I could say I knew what was happening exactly, but -

SPOILER

as far as I can tell, everyone from the upper levels of Mugenjou is in one big conspiracy together. And Ginji is the key to opening a door - at least, that's what they call him. >__<

BUT! Most importantly! The BanGinji squee!!!! =D

Ah, I love my manga.

And what is it with Paul being the Gale Emperor, and being one of the original GetBackers, and the other one was der Kaiser (BAN'S DAD), and my brain is liek, WTFH?!!!!

But overall, I'm overcome with the GHEI, and the PLOT! I mean, 'GetBackers' WIN at PLOT, GetBACKERS?! I can't be the only one who sees this as a sign of the Apocalypse?!

P.S. Apparently, Himiko might possibly be related to Ban's grandma, I say that makes a TWISTED kind of sense. At this point I'd believe anything; like,

'Hi Ban, I'm your dad, also your current ENEMY, and you were born from a test tube, with samples from Paul and I. Aren't you happy?'

DED!

Thank you very much, again!

(And . . . have you read Chapter 12 of OTW yet? In which something fairly permanent happens, and you can probably see who the Marassa are . . .)

HUGGLES YOU!

Yes, I have read chapter 12, I'm trying to digest everything beyond the whole AKABANE! OMFG! WTF?!

As for the Marassa... let's just I'm putting my money on Ban and Himiko at the moment, though I'm completely nonplussed about Ginji's part in all of this.

(grins a lot)

Well, once the entity riding Akabane was gone, the physical body was comparatively defenseless . . .

I look forward to seeing your reaction to further information (as since our heroes are mostly prisoners now, it is the point in the story where the villains are expected to gloat at them and explain the plot) and will endeavour to get around to it as soon as possible. :)

(pouts at you)

True, true, true, but at the same time there's part of me that's going 'He has walked off worse.' Self delusion known no bounds.

My reaction will probably amuse you greatly, for some reason my reactions always amuse people. It must be a gify :p (ohhh, I love this part, because the villains tell you everything, and then the heroes manages to kick so much arse! hehehehe).

Indeed, Akabane has walked off worse. I do not deny that.

I'm sure . . . he's not gone for good. Sort of. (looks bland)

And yes, I too love the part where the villains Tell All and then the heroes Break Free and Kick Ass. One must respect the classics!
