'Ello! :D

My ... attempt? ... at a YGO! fanfic! Bow down in awe.

Characters: Yami Yuugi, Yami Bakura, Bakura, Marik, Seto, Mokuba, Anzu, Jonouchi, Honda, Pegasus... Ah yes, and a side-note of Yuugi Mutou. Maybe they are a tad bit OOC.
Genre: Humour
Warnings: OOC (The closest is probably still Seto Kaiba!), Nudity

...

Jonouchi Katsuya often didn't recognise himself when he was angry anymore. He was a beast to everyone around him, and now he's heard that from his best friend of all time, too. Bakura, however, calmly watched the blonde boy as he smirked a smirk of smugness.

"Tell me that again!" Jonouchi cried. "Or I will kick your butt into the next week and serve the rest of your body to the Winged Dragon Of RA!"

However, Bakura simply snickered. "Fufufu!"

"Bakura! We need your advice on how to start the engine!" Seto came rushing into the room, and was greeted immediately by Jonouchi's teary eyes and Bakura's nudeness. Seto shook his head in disbelief. It felt like a déjà vu to him, hadn't he seen Bakura naked before last week in a similar setting with Marik. "Not again..."

"Do you mind if I put some clothes on?" Bakura's husky voice seemed so very not concerned about what Seto had just witnessed.

"PLEASE! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!" cried Jonouchi. "... Don't leave me!!"

"I will never be back!" Bakura smirked with his Terminator-like voice. Of course he meant every word like this. "Get angry at me all you want, Joey, I don't care!" That said, he turned into Yami Bakura forever.

Jonouchi didn't want to turn into HULK again, so he turned to Seto: "Can you please help me?"

Seto was not impressed: "Stop the whining, you fool!"

So Jonouchi turned into a simple card storing his soul to piss Kaiba off, as this was his revenge to him beating him in a du-du-du-duel recently. Seto Kaiba instead stepped onto the card and Jonouchi immediately regretted his decision. He thought about his life in silence while watching a large pile of butter, and didn't notice Yami Bakura not noticing he was still there.

"He took him away from me!" The butter looked so tasty while Jonouchi continued his train of thought. "I will make him pay!"

Suddenly! A familiar voice came from the window: "HEY!"

Was it...? NO! It couldn't be. It was... Maximillion Pegasus. He had ridden his pegasus to the window, and now stood there, looking down on Yami Bakura putting on one shirt after the other. Pegasus sighed. "I am here to rescue my best friend!" he yelled at Yami Bakura.

"So what?" Yami Bakura grabbed the third shirt.

"Will you please cover your peepee?"

Yami Bakura's fists got closer and closer to the sides of his hips. "I won't! And IF I win, you will be naked, too!"

"Nooooo!"

Yami Bakura put on his impressive duel disk system: "It's time to d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-duel!"

"I'LL GO FIRST!" cried Pegasus. "And I will rescue my friend!"

Yami Bakura shrugged.

"I summon WINGED DRAGON OF RA!" Pegasus continued.

"HAVE YOU READ THE RULES EVEN?!?!?!" yelled Seto, Yami Yuugi, and Anzu in unison from afar.

"Okay, bring it on!" Yami Bakura laughed. Then he drew the next card, which was Kuriboh. Yami Bakura sighed. Why did everybody tell him to believe in the heart of the cards after all? Anyhow, he couldn't step back from this now. He thought of the next move quickly, then decided to...: "I will merge the power of Kuriboh with the power of my unstoppable EXODIA!"

"NANI?" cried Pegasus, Seto, Yami Yuugi, Anzu, and Pegasus's pegasus.

"Mwahahaha! And now I will use this time machine to age my Kuriboh, and multiply the Exodias with time, as they will have children in the end, and as we all know, this is what this game is about!"

"He's good!" whispered Honda.

"Where do you come from now?" retorted Anzu in shock.

Honda's reply was simple, yet effective: "The toilet?"

Yuugi Mutou was not there, whatsoever, to the delight of everybody else. The time-machine-altered Kuriboh-Exodia destroyed the WINGED DRAGON OF RA with one hit. Ka-BOOM!

"Strip naked!" Yami Bakura commanded.

Pegasus sighed in disappointment: "Oh dear, I just wanted to rescue my friend Rebecca!"

"Wait a moment!" Jonouchi was raging in flames. Sadly nobody noticed him.

Seto seemed rather happy it was over, and just went to his brother: "Let's go, Mokuba!" And off they went.

(  Feeding Time!! :D  )

Think about me what you want to, but my music taste is good :D.

I somehow witnessed over the course of the past months / years that my expectations rose, and therefore I was constantly annoyed with the kind of ("little to no") progress I made when it came to activities I really actually just did because I enjoyed them. I also felt that during all of this time, the urge to do something just for the reason that it could make me happy was deteriorating in itself. It was hard for me to do random stuff on Duolingo, to pick up my guitar, to write songs, to write poetry, etc. And I know it unfortunately IS something I am not all alone with...

Also, my idea of having "hobbies" was pretty much similar to what the person who made the following video said in the beginning of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcGwlOn28B0... That it should actually be called "disciplines", because otherwise the word wouldn't sound like something that actually is worth one's time. I am also struggling with hobbies not being my "general field of work", if I could call it that, and that's also why I often feel incredibly scared of choosing one profession, because I fear it would get me away from my other areas of interest. I know this sounds ridiculous maybe, but the struggle is real.

I always identified myself as a person who has a large variety of interests, hobbies, disciplines to define who I was deep down, because I didn't know who I would be without them. If you like making music, you can call yourself a musician to a certain extend, if you paint on a regular basis, you are an artist, if you love nothing more than dancing, dancer is the term I would use, etc. All these little descriptions meant even more to me than the hobbies themselves: I just realised that. Initially, of course, I LOVED all the things I used to label myself with. I LOVED it all... I was all of these things: Musician, tarot reader, artist, dancer, astrologist, language enthusiast (or like they call it: "polyglot"), traveller, writer, designer (web & fashion), ... Of course, all were "just" hobbies, but I saw them in a really competitive way with others; it didn't make it any easier for me nor did it make the conversations and life with other people any easier & happier.

I now ask myself, how could I even get back to the state of simply enjoying those things for what they are / mean to me? How can I just stay in the moment, in a peaceful, non-judgmental way towards myself?

I often had this exact feeling with making music, the BIGGEST of my loves maybe, and it broke my heart each time I thought, "I am not made for this. Everybody is better than me. I don't have a right to enjoy it if it is not perfect. I don't fit into the music world...", etc. I would usually belittle myself here, saying those thoughts are not that big of a deal, but they are, and they are also stuff others struggle with maybe on a regular basis. I always came to the conclusion (When touching my guitar again after a long period of not doing so...) that the thoughts were unjustified. That I still had it in me, that it still mattered to me. That it was a neverending love story, if you will.

So, I really need to find ways out of these states of mind, I feel. Not just for myself. How to even be present in the moment when all you think about is your PAST (What did I do wrong again last year in February? And what about this horrible thing that happened in my childhood? And, hey, what about my father, who always despised me and my artistic endeavors?) and the FUTURE (How can I get out of this state and finally be happy? What can I do right now to make myself happy in the future? Oh dear, and what if I really end up failing at all my endeavors? Will I be happy with who I am then?)... I really urge everybody reading this to think about this. Maybe you never struggled with this at all, of course, which makes me happy for you (Really, it does. Tell me about that :D!). Maybe you do struggle and have no idea either, then let's maybe brainstorm together, or support each other, encourage each other... And maybe, you struggled in the past and overcame your whatever-it-may-be, then please tell me how you managed to do that.


// On a totally random, unrelated note: Saw a bigger car today which had "We do!" written on it. Reminded me of a discussion I had with my sister yesterday, about that stonecutters episode from the Simpsons, in which they sang a song having this title... :D Don't believe me? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcV-SC6ha2I //

Heeello~! :D

My sister* just asked me an interesting question, since we watched a few videos of Miami Ink. The question was :

If you were to get a tattoo of an animal, which animal would you choose and why?

So I had to think. I guess it would either be a RAT or a CAT ...

Why would I choose the cat? -- I grew up with cats, they also were the first animals I had contact to, that I could build up a bond to. Cats are said to be very independent. And I totally trust their knowledge of the human mind ...

Why would I choose the rat? -- First off, I am a rat (Chinese zodiac sign), and then I think I have a lot in common with rats. I am maybe not viewed the way I really am, some people find me weird, disgusting, scary, whatever, but I still go my own way, I wouldn*t change myself for anybody. And I just love those clear, beautiful, curious eyes rats have. They run through the world with open eyes. They are very intelligent, too. :]

I love both animals. And I somehow really want a rat tattoo now ... :) I found this picture and it really makes my heart stumble over my love for rats, too ...

So ... What about you?

Nicht dass es nun nötig sei,
Zu sagen "Es ist schon vorbei".
Denn fühlt das Ende jedermann,
Der langsam mich wahrnehmen kann,
Wenn ich strahle, strahl* ich aus.
Für manche gar ein Augenschmaus.

Nicht dass das Urteil nötig war.
Es macht doch nicht, es ist sogar
Wertlos, hirnlos, teils verbrannt,
Die Worte sind eh unbekannt,
Und wenn ich teile, teil* ich aus.
Ein mancher macht ein Drama draus.

An owl was crying for help

Közi is the most important musician to me who I can think of. As for many people, they adore music fitting to every kind of mood, and even Közi*s music fits in there, even though the texts most likely have several "layers" of meaning. He also uses several of the words I love the sound of, which now seems like a stupid reason, but hearing them over and over again really makes my day, every time, and it has been like this for several years now. ^ ^

Besides that, I have got a question, since I don*t fully get what this openID is about ... Does anybody know how to "add" LiveJournal users to the list of people who are able to read this? Yes, I have been on LJ for a ... fairly long period of time (10 years). I*d be really glad if I were able to share some things with my friends "over there". And reading their journals would also be kind of cool ... However, I don*t know how it works?

Please help~ ...

(I know it is a little messed up, this entry. I didn*t want to post two single ones, though ...)

Greetings, mutants.

I figure the first entry should contain some basic information on me, as well as some plans I have with this journal, so I shall post this now. Hohoho.

My name is Rina. I am 27 years old, female, and from Germany. I currently study at university [Japanese studies & musicology] ... I am addicted to several things, including music, being creative, languages*n*traveling, the paranormal, and esoteric. And, of course, other people*s results of creative moments, and I also like the internet. My MBTI result says I am an INFP, and yes, I believe in this!, and my enneagram type is 4(w3).

What I plan with this journal ... I mostly want to use it for posting things - like quotes, urls or descriptions/interpretations - that inspire me, as well as my own "results of creative moments". I will try to keep it like this ...

So -- now I wish you much fun "over here". Grab the nearest cookie and throw it against a wall EAT IT! :D
