There's nothing like...

Seeing a picture of a local cup stacking event mentioned on a Japanese news site.

I have no clue why they're covering it. I could see why my local paper covered it, but not something in Japan. And the only reason I know what's going on is because of the picture. I think 大会 is championship ("big meet"?) since it's prefaced by "world" (sekai, 世界), and that it's in April of this year, but that's about it.

(Yeah, I learned how to search Japanese news. For my hometown. Too bad most of it's about our basketball team.)

Cap request

I'm looking for a cap from "Thunderstorm" (part 1, I think), the PRDT/PRNS crossover. It's of Hayley's screen when she's telling Tommy of the evil emanating from/going to Blue Bay Harbor. If someone has a cap of this, and could get it to me, I'd be grateful.

edit: I coaxed MPlayerOSX to cooperate with me so I could get a cap. It's not decent, but it works. (Realplayer's Mac OS X support sucks and they insist on logging in every time you want a damn download of their software.)

( Here's the cap. It's fuzzy, but it's the cap. )

(no subject)

Now to get muses going. I want to write a short fic to get me in the mood to work on one of my fics that desperately need working on. (Trip, Darien, SELMA, Kira, Conner, Kagami? Where in the heck are you?)

(Links to these fics can be found here.)

Random Hayley OA AU fic

tptigger and I have been working on this fic. It takes place kind of in the "White is the Color of Guilt" setting, or at least branches off the Hayley AU of Opposites Attract (that is, Hayley is a Tomorrow Person). This one spawned a plot bunny for another story; brownie points to whoever can figure out what happened to spawn it.

Spellchecked as best as possible, but otherwise straight off chat.
