follow me into the rain

I wanted to write something fluffy for Gintama. There's an idea for a scene I've been having for a while now, but I'm not sure if I'll end up posting it to AO3 one day as part of a longer fic or if it will just end up being this scene.

If it ends up as part of a longer fic, it will probably be called something like "[X] Times When Kotaro Katsura Fell Ill And [Y] Of The Many, Many, Many Times When He Didn't".

But for now, I'm just posting this scene on Dreamwidth. Constructive criticism is very welcome. The ending especially could probably use some more lines (maybe something from the morning next day, even).


Name: Us Idiots Who Can't Catch Colds [temporary title]
Word count: ca 2300
Setting: Shôka Sonjuku flashback
Spoilers: Some vague backstory reveals up to episode 320, but nothing really spoilery in nature
Characters: Katsura, Shôyô, Gintoki, Takasugi
Summary: Gintoki and Takasugi are sick. Katsura and Shôyô are not.

I picked up a fun icons meme from sara_tanaquil! I did this once before, but I wanted to try again - and happily five different icons were picked from the first time.

Meme rules:

1. Reply to this post and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.

Behind the cut are the ones sara_tanaquil picked for me, with my comments!

( a lot of babbling )

Happy Birthday, dethorats!

For a birthday pic this year, I tried to capture a moment with Luffy and Zoro briefly mentioned in my old fic "Tow Line". It may be gen for me, but, well, eye of the beholder and all!
