I think I need more than several 140 characters posts to express myself... Definitely journal posts are way better for that... At least thoughts flow better (at least in my case)

I'm still in a post-Shitsuren Chocolatier flailing mood. I'm still really excited but I am keeping it to myself. It's that feeling of not wanting anybody to burst my bubble... Not sure it makes sense. I really love the first episode and my over active imagination has this little plot about how I'd like things to develop (won't last too much as the manga is around there and I'm checking it out) that I want to enjoy for a little longer, maybe until VSA tomorrow XDD

Shouta is so cute it hurts!!!

I wonder how J feels about episode 1 final result. Hope he is proud of it! Rating was 14,4% for what I've been told, which is good... But really doesn't leave a lot of room for decreasing right? I hope people keep being loyal to it. I wish those not living in Japan and watching counted *pout* You are doing great J!!

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to get to OST. Today saw a link to 7net shop that says that they will release it on February 26. So far, cdjapan/yesasia don't have it listed yet, but Amazon JP does have it: HERE So those using Amazon JP can already pre-order it. I'm really considering doing so myself...

Now, several other things I've been thinking/flailing/wondering about.

Ohno's crush on Satomi. Oh gosh, probably it's me seeing things where they aren't but, have you noticed how during Hey!Hey!Hey! they asked him to choose the person asking their question first, and he had two beautiful well known girls, Satomi and Rola, but he chose Satomi!!! XDD That moment made me lol big time! and I was telling speaking aloud to Riida, telling him that he shouldn't be that obvious or if the wants to, he should just take a step and do something about that cute crush! They would be adorable, don't you think? Well, at least I do XDD

I know some may say that it was good to start with her for Chocolatier promotion... but wouldn't it be better if she was the last one, following that line of thought? I dunno. I think he couldn't resist himself...

Also, I keep thinking that Aiba was the cutest thing ever during Hey!Hey!Hey!. when Sho admitted that he would date him when Aiba said he couldn't date Sho. He was blushing big time!!! I wonder why... was he really caught out guard by Sho's words, was he feeling awful because of the outcome... Because when Nino says that he wouldn't date Aiba, I bet Aiba was expecting that, since well, Aiba knows Nino as well as he knows himself, I bet... but he didn't expect that Sho said that and was so cute while saying it XD oohhh the feelings!

Also, also... I got annoyed by the Downtown guy next to Jun. Did you notice how many times he was slapping Jun's leg? That type of thing bothers me so much!!!! I imagine that in Jun's head there was this image of himself standing up and just punching the guy XDD The guy also dared to slap him on the head too... and J being the nice boy he is with that 'I am not really amused but have to look like I am' smile plastered on his face Lol!!

I would have kissed J when the guy asked if he chose Aiba because he is 'baka' and Jun said that he was wrong several times, that it was because he is a clear/shining person... *applauses and bravos to J* (the camera was on Aiba at that point, and I like that he smiled nicely to J) Junba was so very cute!!!!! --> you two can move together only if you allow Sho and Nino to be there most of the time XD (Riida would be probably fishing or enjoying his hamaka, or that floating houses it seems he is checking - not sure what that rumor is about)

Oh, that reminds me. I AM NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF SAKUMOTO LATELY. But I have this tendency to think the worst... So I wonder... could it be possible that JE saw/realized that sakumoto is a growing in popularity pair and suggested them both that they should be nicer/closer to each other... Because it's too good to be true!!! ~ ~ ❤

Bittersweet already grew on me and I already love it! Hope it happens the same with Road to Glory because for now, I am not really feeling it... :S I am so curious about the cd cover and photo shoot about it!!! Oh, that means more shop photos!!! nooooo! yesssss! (mixed feelings there because I want them all, but not sure when to buy them...)

They were really cute in the performance but I lol-ed so much when I saw a photoshop-ed image of them in that triangle like formation with a bonfire in front of them!!! Really!! LMAO!!

So, there are rumors of fans complaining to FujiTV for the bath scene with Kiko and all that. That is... so TIRING! I really wish fans in Japan would behave more, I don't know... normal? less pathologically clingy/jealous? I dunno really! Don't they realize that Arashi interacts/are touched by lots of people daily?! Those doing their make up/wardrobe people/dentist/stylist... I mean, come on!!! And they realize also that probably J and Kiko are both with swimming trunks/suits or something right? At least in their lower parts...

But if Fuji changes things because of fans, they will be the ones to blame. Since when that is the way to go? Now they are asking that, next time what?! In that sense, I'm kind of glad that JE doesn't accept all that fans say around (although they are already doing enough, not allowing them to date/marry/have kids) Oh, all those gray areas made me feel really 'blah' and disappointed in how things are in Japan entertainment/Arashi fandom.

Speaking of Arashi fandom. Let me say this: Yes, it's rainbow land, and yes, in general I am happy being part of the fandom... But sometimes, fans behaviour disappoints me and makes me go 'wth!' more than before, really... :S and it's just in terms on manners... I wonder, really what their parents taught them in that department :S

I had more things to say, but I can't remember now and this is long enough ;)

I am not making sense... and there may be some spoilers (but just about the general plot)

( read at your own risk )

Title : True Lies
Rating : R (for language and description of violence)
Pairing : Sakumoto Sho/Jun (only mention of others)
Genre: Spies AU (one-shot)
Word Count: ~3000
Disclaimer: Own nothing. Fiction. Everybody knows that already.
Summary : Jun and Sho are spies. Shit and feelings happen. I am not good at this. Jun's P.O.V.
Thanks to cypros for checking this out first.
Notes: It's been literally ages since last time I wrote something. I really thought I couldn't finish anything... And this came. It isn't a super original plot, I think, but had fun writing it and it's what I usually would love to read: yes, the h/c works for me. This is NOT the Prime Minister AU, sadly... (just yet)
Inspired in some weird way by the Class J poster and Sho's latest Jins cm...
Btw: No Sho was damaged in the writing of this fic.

( Read more... )

It's a silly thing but I keep having this thought in my head about how cool it would be that they named 'Circus' one of their albums. It can't be since it is a very common word and they already have a song titled like that... but it sounds good to me... Think about it Arashi - Circus XDD

Anyway, I was thinking today, because I was reading and writing twits (or is it tweets) about it. About Arashi at concerts, that's it.

For me, based in my limited experience, Jun is the perfect host: He created/concocted this whole thing for the fans where he thought about every little detail so everything goes as planned and he and the rest have to deliver. J trusts that Sho as perfect MC that he is will get the audience incited, excited and involved enough and all of them, J and Sho included deliver...

All of them are amazing in concert. I couldn't complain in the fan service department due to the lack of it. J does fan service (gets half naked, kisses the camera, etc), of course, but during the waving to the fans... J, Nino, Sho and Aiba usually do just that.

In Sho's case as the Royalty he is *tee hee*, Aiba, Jun and Nino wave -Aiba flashes everybody with his lovely smile which is a plus- but Ohno! Riida takes such a good care of the fans, confirming that the fan he is single-ing realizes is her the one!!! That makes me incredibly happy and thankful that he takes the time (even if I am not the lucky one XDD)

That wasn't what I wanted to talk about. Actually, all that Circus / concert tasks got me thinking...

If they were working in a Circus (imagine a fic in that AU)... who would all of them be...

First I thought, Jun would be the Circus MC, I mean, imagine him with red jacket, high boots (and long hair and a goatee - no mustache :P) welcoming everybody and introducing the different parts of the show.

In that case, Ohno and Nino would be the acrobats, Aiba, the lion-tamer and well, in this first option, Sho would be the clown :S

In a second thought, I imagined that what if Sho was the actual MC (not the owner of the Circus, just the one that introduces the events) with his red jacket (we do know he looks good in one -T.A.B.O.O. anyone?), J would be the magician, Aiba and Nino the clowns, and Ohno the acrobat. Or maybe Aiba could be the elephants-tamer while Nino (with or without Ohno) is the clown...

Imagine the possibilities for sakumoto love between the arena MC (Sho) and the magician (Jun)... yes, my sakumoto showing XDD

or between the elephant-tamer (Aiba) and the clown (Nino)...

Of course the Arashi Circus counts with other workers (maybe other JE) and it's not doing very well at the moment. Maybe somebody wants it to sunk... and they have to find out who is sabotaging the shows...

I have seen a lot of movies/ I am totally un-original... what can I say... :S


But I wonder, in a Circus, where would you place each Arashi member? Which other pairs you'd get there? I want to know other possibilities (just for my daydreaming / fic plot thinking) XDD Thank you! if you decide to give it a try! ^^

It's summer, that means that I am a bit grumpy because I don't handle the hot as well as the rest of the three seasons' weather. Actually London's summer is extremely hot this year and I wasn't ready for that :S

It also means that my laptop doesn't handle the heat nicely either (must be to sympathize with its owner) so I can't do more than one thing at a time... If I'm dling or uploading I can't really surf a lot or anything. It gets to me, making me grumpier.

* So Arafes voting finished and I'm quite pessimist... I don't think J's solo is going to be Naked... It looks, for what I've read around, that it's going to be Yabai-Yabai-Yabai. Don't get me wrong. I love that solo. He is uber cute in it. But that solo is already on DVD and Naked isn't... Well, I'm not going to repeat myself. It's done, it doesn't matter now.

I just hope that a lot of more people have voted for Oretachi no song, so at least we get that XDD It can so cute and fun!!

* Arashi travelled outside of Japan again. NY again! Lucky the NY fans! I wonder who will be the next one having a trip outside Japan (it doesn't count that Sho is going to Singapore next week). I mean, to Europe, mainly :P I was wondering... wouldn't they do an Olympics special around September that it's when the final decision between Tokyo/Madrid/Istambul is made? Maybe Sho could visit the candidate countries... Too bad that in September I won't be in Madrid *cries*

I would like to know more reports from fans who saw them in NY. So far there is only that account by that girl who posted/shared it everywhere. I know I may sound grumpy (hello weather!) but I don't think I would do that if I got the chance to meet them... Isn't it too much :S I dunno...

It seems Sho came back earlier to do the elections special at News Zero. There was this supposed pic of him at the airport (can I just flail about his t-shirt, backpack and cap?!? Love his travelling outfit <3!!) I would love to see some pic of the others... but I guess it can't be... *pout*

* Anyway, last week Shiyagare was so so cute!!!! I love that Nino visited an Spanish restaurant (actually it was a Meson that it's an slighly different thing, but I will just not go there XD) I absolutely uterly love his Spanish!!!! Can I have Nino speaking Spanish for an hour or so XDD

He said his lines so neatly!!! and even when the guy told him something wrong (corrected later at the place), he still did a great job. I can't handle Nino saying 'Por favor' (please). My crazy fics mine thinks of too many possibilities XDD

I really hope he enjoyed the 'tinto de verano' and the 'bocadillo de tortilla' because both things are very common in Bars in Spain!!!

Also, I could ramble and fail non stop about sakumoto being so awesome playing football (soccer) together!!! Can I also get them playing one-to-one football for an hour or so? with wet s-thirts or something XDD

* And, pics of Ohno with his head 'supposedly shaved' are out. I don't think I am going to be popular with this opinion, but I would have loved for him to actually shaved it. I would have loved they had allowed him to do it. I mean, aren't they always looking more or less the same? Aren't they like JE's good boys?

Wouldn't have that be a radical change that would have been accepted as something fresh? New? I mean... they are not allowed to do so many things? You see how Sho got his sides also almost shaved?

I would have love for him to go for a shave... It's so hot!! I would have love they could just get their hair really short if they want it! I am rebellious today XDD

Ohno is also looking strangely sexy, like in a 'let's go to do some meditation', kind of sexy XDD

Seriously, it's cool that they got such a nice make-up people, but Ohno is having such a long hair atm! Poor thing must be boiling! J must be having a hard time too... I wonder if it's the NHK drama why he can get his hair cut...

How is your Arafes voting going?

I haven't voted yet because I am doing some serious studying about it XDD I went to bed at almost 3 a.m. last night trying to layout the songs I want to vote for, checking that I prioritize the ones not in dvd that I also love and all that...

Also, for those sakumoto fans in my LJ that are not in my twitter. You must watch this in case you haven't already! http://t.co/Nts0Bxw9Zt

I already love the song, Love Parade, and was actually in my top three of album songs... but at the moment I am thinking about placing it first, just for the sake of it... and if I am the only one in the whole Arashi fandom voting for it... I don't care. I want these two dancing like that for everybody to see!! (and not in famcam version!)

Now, another thought that occurred to me: In that box at the end, where we can write a request. My first thought was going for Oretachi no song (imagine Ohno and Sho being silly!!!) but I also considered voting for Sho's Touch me now as it isn't among the solos we can vote for (and although I also wanted to vote for Aiba's Yokaze, Sho's is more important to me XDD)...

But, reading a 'how to vote post' in case I had missed something, there was a mention of 'requesting Ohmiya SK' so I thought: can I ask for fan service? To be more precise I want to ask for SAKUMOTO fan service!!! If they don't mind me, they at least would have a laugh... Now, how that would be said 翔潤愛? or　翔潤ファンサービス? or 桜井松本ラブラブ? I kind of have to decide for one of them since I am really considering saying it... (as I don't have to write my name or anything XDD)

( just in case you wonder what songs I am considering to vote for )

Haven't watched VSA properly, will do now... but just after watching the pics from weibo I can do so flailing...


because Jun looks just too cute with his new hair cut and he did awesome in Pinball runner... and he was so handsome and ashdfalkshdfkashfkashfdlkasdhflaksdhf, yes! He did!

And they were cute at the beginning with no Aiba (based on caps, haven't seen it!) and Aiba was just to cute in some moments like in the bowling part

And Sho looks really idol-less due to this normal-looking eyebrows but he looks just too cute and too hug-able and have such a need to go and pat him...

And I don't know how I feel about also sharing b-day with that girl from Last Hope and Yama Taro... Truth be told, I liked her in Yama Taro, more or less and she seems fine sometimes, but some others... :S She goes into that category of Japanese actresses that I feel a bit blah about (i.e. Horikita Maki)


Also... I am so deeply in love with Tokei Jikake no Umbrella choreo... To talk about Arafes sounds like old news but for me, apart from, Happiness and Shake it!, Gimmick Game, Love Situation and Face Down performance, my absolutely favorite parts are (of course) DJxMJ + La Tormenta + Tokei! Maybe it is every single second of the DJxMJ -Masaki.com and Magical Song are just <3<3<3<3<3-, maybe it's related to those hot outfits (especially Jun's), maybe is the sakumoto moment at the beginning of La Tormenta, or maybe how hot and focused they look during the Tokei dance. And knowing Ohno's created it... make my heart doki doki (I can't recall Superfresh's too well, but although I liked that one too, I prefer Tokei's more!

Btw, which other choreos did Ohno create? I know I read it somewhere but didn't keep the link or write them down *headdesk*

Oh! and Breathless confirmed as Platina Data's theme! I am so curious about it!! When will we get a sneak preview of it? or of Calling's PV? I am not picky! But, NOW!!! *waiting impatiently*

I tend to repeat myself, yep, I'm like that. It isn't like I don't remember what I talk about but more than I get ideas fixed in my head and I can't shake them...

So yes, I am still sakumoto fic deprived. I've been re-reading fics I love and enjoyed a lot... I've been reading fics I somehow missed reading... I've been reading fics with plots that I may not read in other situation... I've been reading my own unfinished fics and notes... Inspiration to finish something eludes me lately...

*sigh*

As I said, I've been re-reading fics. Today I read some of astrangerenters because you know how awesome her sakumoto is!

I was doing the dishes (some stuff can't go into the dishwasher u.u') and I was thinking about these three slighly crazy sakumoto prompts and I thought I am going to post them openly so maybe somebody is inspired enough to write them...

The boys as janitors. The image I got in my head is Jun and Sho with overalls, like Ohno in Saigo no Yakusoku... (also I saw the pics of Jun with rubber gloves from the Waku Waku...). I imagined Jun with one of these black rimmed glasses that suits him so well. They don't actually have to be janitors... maybe they have a secret identity...

Jun is in love with the sexy manly voice in English he listens to and assist him when he calls phone assistance/customer service/English lesson online?... for whatever you can come up with (inspired by the teaser of next week's Himitsu, what can I say?

Snowhite retold ('Snowhite and the Huntsman' version of the likes -that I watched on Wednesday, not the Disney one, please!). Jun is the male version of her -don't really enjoy change of sex fics- Sho can be whoever you want but there has to be sakumoto and has a happy ending for them, that's all I ask (please don't make Sho a dwarf, please!)

*small voice* if you want to make any of this matsumiya I am fine with it, although I am craving sakumoto like crazy!

I think I am not spoiling too much pointing out one of my favourite moments where I think Sho-kun looks the best in the whole thing and surprisingly is after having a nightmare (won't say more, promise! sorry!)




O_O too hot and flawless! (and let me tell you, the range of facial expressions of him in this drama is amazing! some of them may go almost unnoticeable... so focus!

Btw, I keep wondering of the rest of the boys watched the drama and if so, what they may have thought while watching or what they would have done during and after watching it. cypros and I were talking on the phone and we both agreed that probably if they were free all of them would be watching...

Having in mind how Ohno admitted that he cried watching Letters from Iwo Jima; how emo Aiba gets with those things; how touched Nino may feel although he loves to put that 'how cool I am' façade, and Jun, who still admires Sho-kun too much, probably got terribly impressed with Sho's work (remember his face while Sho-kun played the piano...) I am guessing all may have got a bit emo...

I wonder if Jun called him or sent him a message (when I say Jun is because I am sakumoto biased, but I wonder about all of them)... And if so, is anybody up to write some tiny scene about them! Apart from that will Sho mention it in his Otonoha around the 15th (I can't believe I miss that entries soooo much!)

I think I can picture Jun crying watching Sho coming back from war and also in his lowest moments during the drama... saying aloud to the tv screen 'Sho-kun you really are something' kind of thing lol! I am so silly!

Open for a while.

It's a really silly thing, but goo did one of those polls about 'which actresses and actors have healthy sex appeal' and guess what?

In the actors department we got this:

01 – 4316 votes – Sakurai Sho
02 – 3850 votes – Matsumoto Jun

*squee*

But well, we all know that those two have sex appeal... and if we 'combine' them *cough* just imagine!! massive spontaneous combustion among sakumoto/Arashi fans for sure...

Oh, I would love to read a ficlet/drabble/fic/draft/whatever about those two commenting the results of this poll...

Jun what have you done with Sho, who put an spell on him?! That's what happens when you eat that cookie/chocolate bar thingy? I wonder...



lol! It looks like a couple pic, right? lol!

I don't know why I find it so amusing, but I do... humor me, please!

Jun looks really handsome there but the chipmunk (it's more a squirrel right?) it's so small and tiny and so reminds me of his hubby...

It seems to be for his new Meiji cm. The crispy thing looks delicious and not good to keep your weight at bay... Press release here.

PS. Oh, I keep reading rumors about Aiba's An An being a nude one. I still don't know if it's that they are praying it's one or actual rumors about it being that way... *crosses fingers* Wouldn't be nice? He would be the third Arashi being all sexy and hot and with no clothes in an An An. I hope TPTB listen to the weibo's girls prayers...

This one was aired in TBS's Hiroobi on Monday around 11 am.

It showed images not aired in the one at 6 am. The moment where he is trying to write kanjis (his family name) with his left hand ;_; *crying rivers already* broke my heart and his nephew saying 'daijoubu!' *more crying*
