fabelyn said: OMG I totally didn’t see the last chapter ;_; Anyways…I.HAVE.NO.WORDS!!! To describe how much I love the way you write the characters. I feel as if they would have definately have acted that way in canon too. Although as much as I loved it, I think Toriko trusts Zebra and…

First, thank you so much for the very kind comments. (Actually, thank you to EVERYONE who commented. *blush* I’ll get to those  replies later!)

Hehe, I’m glad you liked the chapter for the most part. It’s kinda been making me very nervous that somehow, I seem to be losing readers as I go along, but :) knowing that even a few people are reading always helps. 

I’m kinda mad at tumblr because it cut off the rest of your comment; huuum, I don’t know how to fix that (TUUUUUUMBLRRRR!) but if you ever want to write me a longer message, just send me a mail ^__^ I really do value criticism and boy, I know I need it for this fic.

As for what you were saying … I think about Toriko trusting Zebra? Hmm. I looked back over the Toriko and Zebra interactions. They do come off as a bit brusque, but what I was trying to do (and probably failing) was to show that there is something going on between the actions and relationships of the four kings more than what Komatsu is really seeing.

*blush* I didn’t mean to imply that Toriko didn’t trust Komatsu’s safety with Zebra; Coco, for one, knows that Komatsu went off with him.

When Toriko discovers the fact that Komatsu’s gone off with Zebra, he isn’t as nervous as to Zebra *not* taking care of Komatsu … I think he’s more concerned with why Zebra took Komatsu.

Oops, I think this may get long. Hit the cut to see some really long ramblin’ about my thinking processes. *Watches everyone flee* OH DEAR.

-_-. Oh. Woe. Woe woe. Woe woe woe! I am out of Toriko Pirate pictures to post with my story. This makes me a really sad panda. The pics usually get more notes than the actual story *laments*.

I am also out of ideas in naming chapters. This means I just may have to resort to the Sorachi-sensei school of naming sh!t. How’s this for a title: “Chapter The Zebra: Poking Large Muscly Men With Sticks Leads Often to Unexpected Results (and pain).”

Errr …

Or perhaps chapters should be named after my desk snacks — in that case, the next chapter is going to be called “Turkey Pepperoni - 70% less Fat”

Errr …

Seriously. Next chapter is done. Need Name. Cause I’m currently out of food puns. *Cries*

*ponders naming the next chapter “Black Currants — Raisin the Flag”.

-_- Oh great googly-moogly, Sorachi-sensei-school-of-naming-sh!t, here I come.

the times they are a-changin': yay pirates?

latenightiridescence:

Since wonderble started posting her Toriko pirate AU (which is incredible), I can’t stop thinking about my own even though I don’t have time to write it right now, drat.

Mine is more of a Pirates of the Caribbean AU - every fandom needs movie rewrite fic, don’t try and deny it - and even though…

Yaaaay! More pirate fic! XD Though honestly, I’m kinda embarrassed cause I took the idea from you in the first place! There is always enough room for more AUs, and I think every author will have their own unique spin on it. I’m kinda really excited for this. And I really like the idea that Komatsu is tougher  and the guys are real pirates … sometimes I wonder if I took the softer way out, since the Kings in my fic aren’t pirates because … well. … you’ll see. It’s also not anything revolutionary … it’s just a rewriting of the Toriko manga as if they were pirates and if Komatsu met all the four kings. One of the weaknesses is that it doesn’t have a driving storyline. It’s just like one event after another. *Face palm* I just hope people stick around. XD

Yours sounds awesome and does have a driving storyline. *SNERK at damsel in distress OOTAKE* The way you’re writing the kings as real pirates, it has a real edge that way. Though Komatsu’s choice … that’s something that I think both our fics will have to answer. *g*

I will confess that there’s also a “b” side to my fic in that I’ve been contemplating too … there are Gourmet Enforcers in the Empire I’m writing … though the normal ones are just military grunts, the upper echelons are composed of the Bishokukai — and it’s a world where they’ve won.  I’ve kinda thought about making a dystopian Au where the kings are bad guys who do let the appetites get the better of them, and Komatsu’s just been caught in violation of the ideals espoused by the dystopia (because, well, yeah).

I don’t actually write those things very well; I’m not a grim and gritty angst writer, to be honest. But this picture by mee isn’t helping any. Why am I so easily distracted?

I can’t wait for your fic though! YAY!
