This is a long one. It feels like it. It has angst and oh oh oh it's been marinated in my head for so long.

Word count: 788

Disclaimer: The Butler does not own the characters portrayed in this fanfiction, nor does she profit from it. They belong to the creative universe of the manga Katekyo Hitman Reborn! And it’s creator.

Contains: Gokudera, Yamamoto, mentions of the Vongola and Dino, and angst. Angst angst angst. Maybe even a peanut.

Warning: boylove. Cursing. Possible future adult/sexual situations, not sure yet. Weird writing and timeline

Here's the prelude.

 

( Don't Look Back )
Comments and constructive criticisms are oh so welcome.

A kind of introspective drabble. Really short fic. Should have been a longer one, but I can't seem to make it stretch.

Includes:

Introspective musings of Dino Cavallone.

Murderous intents of Kyouya Hibari.

Mention of science geek Gokudera Hayato.

And one lame joke.

( har har har )

Possibly not much to comment on, but if you can, please go ahead.

Bells have rung, carols sung, and I've still to upload anything.

Rectifying that matter now.

Here's a fanfiction and an accompanying fanart to boot.

Woah woah woah, what's up with the sudden spurt of energy, you ask? Um, well, dunno either. But here you go anyway. 

( In which Girl!dera tries her hand at social interaction )
Can I have art to go with that fic?

( Yes you can. )



There you guys go. Comments and criticisms appreciated, as always.

Oh, and let's all have a good year, yeah?

I have not uploaded anything for a very long time.

I will now rectify this matter.

Background info:

These are doodles inspired by nymous_fic's Titanic Crossover fics (there are two, and I seriously urge you to bugger off and read it, because those two fics have changed the way awesomesauce is made. SERIOUSLY). It's KHR's Dino and Kyouya, and the rest of them basically cameos, acting out a funnier version of that monster blockbuster movie, Titanic. Me saying it was a monster blockbuster does not mean I love it to death. It just was a blockbuster movie, however you cut it. But her fics, the Titanic storyline superimposed with the sheer crack of KHR, is so great that even if you hated the movie you will love the fic. Yeah.

Major pimpage right there, but I mean every single word. 

Why are you still reading this without buggering off to read those fics??

Oh, you have? Okay then. On to my doodles.

Oh, please keep in mind that I fairly suck at coloring stuff, so please try not to cringe when you look at my color combinations. And yes, I tried watercolor. Not that bad but not awesomesauce either, hn.


Kyouya was not meant to be crossdressing, but since he played the part of Kate Winslet (Rose), and turn of the century clothing is just too much fun to draw, here he is. With that hat with feathers. Yes. This is probably how Mukuro imagines "his allouette". (done on not for watercolor paper, as I later found out when I used watercolor for experimentation. Inked with Rotring tech pen  .02 and .03)

because what I promised the author was just doodles of the characters posing in turn of the century clothes and WTF moustaches. I held off on the moustache here, but heard that sideburns were pretty wicked back in the day, so I settled for that (again, Kyouya in drag. Sorry. I couldn't help it. Hibari-mama probably forced him to do it). The whole thing wouldn't fit into my scanner so cut off at the sides not intentional. The wrinkles on the paper not intentional as well, as I had unwittingly SAT on this particular drawing when it was still in pencils. Yes. I forgot it was there on my bed and I accidentally sat on it for a long time. Sorry guys. (done on watercolor paper, with watercolor and tech pen outlines).



I promised WTF moustaches, and so here they are. Glued onto the faces of the captain and his first mate. Not that kind of first mate.







I had fun, did you?

 

Somebody sent me an e-mail. I didn't mind. I even responded to it and thought a lot about what I would reply without being offensive. I seriously thought about her e-mail and mulled over it. After typing out my reply and hitting the send button, what should I get but a "mail not delivered" notice. Why? Because, according to the aol moderator,  BrittaDv2@aol.com is not receiving any mail. This is what actually upset me. I was hoping to be able to reply to her rather surprising e-mail, but it's another one of those hit and run comments, the ones that just want to shove their opinions to your face and doesn't want to listen to yours. I hate that. I hate it when they expect you to be all democratic and fair and listen to them, but come your turn suddenly it's not a democracy at all. 

Writing stuff and posting it on the internet is putting yourself out there to be critized. I know that. That's what the comment button is for. But at least be kind enough to let me comment back if I find something that doesn't sit well with me in your comment. Let it be a dialogue, and perhaps we can learn something from each other come to finish. 

Now perhaps this person has a reason for not receiving mail. Then please include in your message a way for me to reach you. Instead, I have to resort to posting the e-mail in a different forum in a way that she might find offending or whatever, and then there'd be some more unnecessary hate in this world, and that's just not cool.

This was her e-mail (and I'm assuming the person is female, you'll see why), and if you're the one who actually sent me this, I included my supposed reply a the end:

Please stop making gay stories for bleach or any other anime show. Because it's sick. Why do you people want to see two men fucking each other? If you want something to write about then here is  a few people to write about. ByakuyaxMomo byakuyaxNanao ByakuyaxUnohana ByakuyaxYoruichi ByakuyaxRangiku ByakuyaxRukia  ByakuyaxOrihime. Try this you will get better results. Trust me writing about a character's character will be the key to lots of people reading your story and giving you 5 stars for it. Now if they were gay however, I would understand but that is not the case here so please see reality!

( my reply to this, in which I don't actually try to defend us SICK slashers )

And so.

I cannot resist.

At first, whenever I'd see the KHR stuff all over the internets, I'd think  "huh. Now they have japanese-high-school-boys-gone-mafia story arcs in shonen manga. What will they think of next?" And I'll just shuffle on along, like the old person that I am.

Then I read the manga, because those many people can't all be wrong, right?

And then the gay just hit me like woah.

GAY

GAY

GAY.

Yamagoku just grabbed me by the throat and screamed : WRITE AND DRAW GAY STUFF ABOUT US NOW, DAMN IT!

And how can I not? Yamagoku fits in pretty well into my preffered Well-rounded, friendly, seemingly unassuming SEME and maladjusted, intelligent, snarky UKE. 

So here you go, Yamamoto and Gokudera. Because you earned it. 



Done for the prompt: women's locker room for the 8059 community. Yes. Gokudera in a skirt. For my very first KHR fanart. And yes, Yamamoto looks like a perv. There's a fic to this pic, indeed this pic was drawn for that fic, also posted in the 8959 community. It's the first porn I've written with ACTUAL PORN in it. Yes. I went there. And it's not as awkward as it used to be before when I tried writing porn. It just flew off my fingers. I dunno. Must be the characters.



Second ever KHR fanart, and why yes, it's still yamagoku. This time, both of them TYL (ten years later). Yamamoto's being his goofy self. And yeah yeah yeah there was supposed to be background stuff behind Gokudera, but I got lazy. Anyway you're not missing anything, since I am not the world's best interior designer (it just involved a lamp and the back of the sofa). I figured, TYL is sooooooooo depressing, so how about a little fun, yeah?

Drew this, really, because when I got to the TYL!arc and Gokudera came into the picture I was like, "my gawd Gokudera's gonna grow up HOT!" And so there. Hot TYL!Gokudera with glasses, ponytail and ciggie reading a book.



Because I like the song, and then I got to the tyl!arc, and then hoshit it's tyl!Yamamoto giving young Gokudera the look (you know, that intense look... those sidelong glances... wtf Yama you pedo-perv! haha) ! So I drew them. Looks like a pin-up for some add though. And please don't mind my shitty lettering, I'm just starting my lettering class so there. And hey, look, I gave Yamamoto layered clothes because if he's gonna end up living with Gokudera he'd probably start with the layering too. 

BUT THEY'RE NOT THE ONLY canon PAIR THERE IS IN THE GAYSMAFIA.

Dinohiba. Never mind that Dino's 22. I mean, Hibari CAN'T be 14. They don't even give his age in the manga. He can't be that bad-ass and still be 14. His love for Namimori High is so epic that, though he's past high school, and indeed the school's been trying to discreetly give him the hint that maybe it's time for him to graduate and leave the nest, HE NEVER LEAVES. And so does Kusakabe. And the rest of his wolves in sheeps' clothing gang. So for me, Dino isn't a pedophile AT ALL. He's just a pretty pretty pretty mafia don with a dependency problem.

Been trying to write these two their ficcie, but Hibari's pretty hard to write, and I can't seem to get Dino to be the fun guy that he is (he ends up a bit angsty when I write him), so I tried drawing them.

FAIL.

Dino's pretty-ness hurts my eyes (and that, Dino, is a feat, because KHR is pretty much filled with pretty boys, but YOU TAKE THE CAKE. Everytime I see you, I always go, "shit. He's soooo pretty!" Even TYL!Dino, but you kinda matured, so not so blatantly pretty. Metrosexual, probably) and Hibari's hair IS JUST SO FUCKIN' HARD TO DRAW. Damn you, Hibari's hair. Why must you be as fleeting as a cloud?!

Anway, here's some doodles instead.



Yes, I did this during math. Look, you can even see the polynomials right behind Hibari. I presume he bit them to death too.



The scribble above Dino's head says it all. (haha Hibari here is just so wrong. Uwah Hibari's hair Uuuurgh *faints like Gokudera*).

There you go then.


Enjoys.


And, if you wanna see these colored it will take a while. If you wanna color it yourself, I dunno, go ahead I guess. Just give me a heads up.

(UGH, I MUST LEARN HOW TO RESIZE THESE DAMN THINGS AS IF I WERE TO DIE!)

It's this one. Forgot to say it's the same one with the anti-Hiruma rally.

Sorries to the original uploader of this image, I never meant to use this for profit, just for reference for fanarts. 

Uwaah. I didn't think I'd ever be Okita Sougo. Ever. I mean, why? I like Hijikata-san, I don't want him to die just yet.

 moar art dump. With bonus ficcie (gosh!)

Because it was only a matter of time before I did one of kiddie!byakuya, thanks to the flashback story arcs (most recent one is of hisagi shuuhei, but not a fan of his, so...)

just get on with it, yeah?



and lookie, the fic about the pic.


enjoys.
