"Unwanted Wings" has been a WIP for... several years now. Here is me attempting to write a shorter alternate version.

Fandom: Kamen Rider Kabuto
Rating: 8+
Alternate to episodes 20-21, and spoilers for same.
Summary: Kagami didn't want a partner after TheBee.

( Squeezing Lemons )

Obviously I should not consider writing Kabuto/Kiva crossovers right after watching Decade. I'm also a bit rusty with Kabuto. *facepalm*

Fandom: Kamen Rider Kabuto
Rating: 8+
Spoilers: Entire Series
Summary: Tadokoro helps a group of lost people after the end of the series.
Note: Wow! It's a Kabuto fic. It deals with Tadokoro and some of the aftereffects of the last few episodes of Kabuto. It was inspired by some author's notes for "En Paco, Flugas" that I was tagging today.

( The New Normal )

This seems to be crackfic weekend. This time around, it's Kagami and Tendou. Implied Kagami/Tendou.

( My Zecter did *what* to your Zecter? )

My latest icons. Seven from Kamen Rider Kabuto, four from Kamen Rider Blade. Some of the icons in the Kabuto batch were entered into

toku_icontest.

( Kamen Rider icons )

This is response to a poll request for a sequel/prequel to "Traitorous Jewelry", which itself is in the "Discovering the Sun" universe. This takes place before the events of "Discovering the Sun".

Title: For The Earth's Sake
Fandom: Kamen Rider Kabuto (Discovering the Sun AU universe)
Author: Estirose
Rating: 8+
Spoilers/Warnings: Kabuto episodes 21 on and pretty much reveals some of what's going on behind the scenes in "Discovering the Sun".
Disclaimers: Idea mine, universe not mine.
Summary: Tadokoro has a young man to shape into what he must become.

( Tadokoro ponders Kagami upon meeting the boy )

Must... not... write... fanfic... for... Den-o... before... at... least... two... episodes... subbed....

So I'll do an icon for Kamen Rider Blade and a "Discovering the Sun" bit instead.

( A scene that won't make it into Discovering The Sun - spoilers late 40s eps )

( Kamen Rider Blade icon, from ep 41 )

I put together some random icons (basically, whatever caught my fancy). Various fandoms, 6 icons, mostly Japanese.

( And this surprises you how? )

I decided to get into the writing spirit so that I could work on my two current projects (continuing "Discovering the Sun" and working on my promise to Beth to finish "Different Assignments, Same Idea").

More or less drawing names out of a virtual hat, I came up with five drabbles. They're untitled because they were writing exercises, but by some coincidence, they're all tokusatsu. Those who are Tokusatsu fans are welcome to guess what series and what characters are featured in each drabble. (They're all crossovers, believe it or not!)

( Tokusatsu drabbles )

I'm sick enough to be in bed, and I can't get my muses together to do anything useful, so instead of just lying in bed, I stayed in bed and made icons.

They're all Kamen Rider Kabuto, since that's what I was watching earlier. Shots from episodes 41 and 42 (hopefully nothing too spoilery).

Sample:

This is for

capncosmo, who wanted Kagami fic. Hope this inspires you!

Not a major one, but....

( Still want to mention it )

Oh, and as a reminder, check out the finish-a-thon! Signups are at

Here's more picspam from Tokusen Gourmet. Beware Kamen Rider Kabuto and Boukenger movie spoilers.

( Tokusen Gourmet, part 2 )

I had a little time to kill in which I couldn't do much, so I decided to screencap "Tokusen Gourmet", which is either a special or a regular food show, I can't decide which (or a special themed episode of a food show). I took 48 caps, so to spare dial-up users a little, I'm splitting the thing into four posts.

Anyway, it was covering the Kamen Rider Kabuto movie "God Speed Love" as well as the Boukenger movie "The Greatest Precious" (?), more Kabuto than Boukenger. Spoilers for both movies.

( Tokusen Gourmet )

( Kabuto )

I have a new drabble, "Crossing the Line" (Kamen Rider Kabuto, 5+), that I posted yesterday to celebrate the new board. In addition, a blind rewrite of "Unwanted Wings" is in progress on the board.

Both have to do with Kamen Rider Kabuto, so please bear with me if you're not into that.

First of all, I was talking to Nalanzu last night, and she pretty much outlined a slash fic for me. I was just reading about NaNoWriMo, and I think that I will be outlining this fully so I can write a fic out of it. If I'm going to try my hand at slash, I might as well think big, right? So, more details later for those interested.

And speaking of interested, I know there's a small community of Kabuto fans out there. I thought it would be interesting if we had a board to discuss the show on, so I've started one. You can find it at. (ETA: I know there are other boards that discuss Kabuto, I'm aiming for one that's less general.)

(This was up before, I just wanted to add a poll and to do that you have to create a new entry.)

This is a Kamen Rider Kabuto snippet. It's not going anywhere, so I'm posting it. And adding a poll.

Unrated at the moment, but nothing too bad.

( He could hate the man. )

Okay, I wrote up a short bit of an essay because I wanted to try to share what this Kamen Rider Kabuto is that I keep writing fics about. Of course, I'd like to get more of my friendslist into it too, but I thought an explanation might be in order.

( About Kamen Rider Kabuto )

These two ficlets (one just a tad too long to be a drabble) came to me and refused to go away. They both have spoilers for/occur during episode 22, though one is more spoilery than the other.

This is the more spoilery one:
Title: Revival in G Minor
Author: Estirose
Series: Kamen Rider Kabuto
Rating: 8+
Spoilers: Episode 22
Summary: One calls. The other answers.

( He struggled up )

This one just really needs one to have seen episode 21, but it takes place in 22.

Title: Patheticness
Author: Estirose
Series: Kamen Rider Kabuto
Rating: 8+
Spoilers: Episode 21, mild for 22
Summary: He was pathetic.

( That's what he was )

Current Mood: sleepy

Summary, episode 22

Okay, this one's going to be a bit more difficult as there was apparently some rather important bits of dialogue that I didn't understand. So, my summary's going to be a bit lacking, but it's such an important episode that I'm going to try anyway. Despite the lack of dialogue, it's still quite spoilery, because it covers the episode in detail.

( Episode 22 Raw spoilers )

I've now seen the TV-N sub of 21 and 1/3 of the raw for 22, so some minor thoughts and spoilers.

( 22 notes )

( 21 sub notes )

After a case of Selma's brain going pedantic (I really shouldn't answer emails when I'm distracted, sorry anybody I emailed) yesterday evening, I settled down to watch the TV-Nihon sub of Kamen Rider Kabuto 20.

( Minor spoiler )

Here's some spoilerish KRK wallpaper. All of it's done at 1600x1200 or 1200x900. Other sizes can be done as needed.

( Wallpaper )

Of course we had to wait a week for this week's episode - and of course, it both exceeded my expectations and disappointed me. However, I want to try my hand at summarizing the episode, based on what I could make out of the episode (with a little help from the TV-Asahi summary).

( Spoilers ahoy for KRK ep 21! )

I'll have to see if I want to summarize episode 22. Or maybe I'll leave that to someone who actually understands Japanese better than I do.

Dear muses:

Thanks,

Part 5

I'm playing rotate the icon collection again. I'm looking to change out one icon at the moment (which one isn't important). Here are three, two Godai and Ichijou from Kamen Rider Kuuga and one from Kamen Rider Kabuto (which is a bit spoilery if you're following it).

( icons )

Since I was on a roll anyway, here's one more fic that got finished off today. It's a companion piece to "Unwanted Wings" that I wrote to figure out how I was handling some events and characters in that story.
