Merry Christmas! It's not much. In fact, you could even say it "isn't too much at all...."

Setsudo to Heion - Moderation and Peace

Pairing: Ozaki Toshio x Muroi Seishin = Explicit
Summary: Plot? What plot?
 

Merry Christmas and thanks for the 6 months of support and feedback! For those of you not into this side of the fandom or under-age, I'll try to whip out another chapter today and tomorrow as well for Christmas.

For those of you into it, my image editing/text setting skills are non-existent, but I hope you're able to enjoy it anyway.

Woah, Merry Christmas! I knew you were doing something for the holidays, but that is not what I expected! I usually don't hunt for doujins but I enjoyed reading it. My favorite parts were the funny ones, like the omake when he's studying for med school, I snickered out loud. It's funny how quickly it escalates. Like they're drinking tea and then suddenly Ozaki's copping a feel!

I think the image editing/text setting looked pretty professional here! I liked the font choice, and it was constant throughout, which is the important thing, I hate font shifts. Like one time I was reading a manga with the usual Comic Sans and then suddenly...Papyrus...

And as usual thank you for the excellent and continuous translations! I am so happy I found this project, and I'm excited every time it's updated! Keep it up ^__^

You might like Happy Family Planning better when I get around to that; it's all gag manga, and even the cover is funny (Ozaki blowing up a condom like a balloon as Seishin looks coquettish). Unlike most of the doujinshi I translate nobody else is interested in this pair to do the text setting work, so you might be stuck waiting until next Christmas for it, but since I'll still be translating next Christmas, it'll be good to have something on hand to put up for the Christmas 2014 post!

Just that cover alone is enough to get me interested! Especially with works as serious as Shiki, it's nice to just sit back and laugh at the characters sometimes. Nooo, but next Christmas is so far away~ well, I don't really celebrate Christmas anyway (for me, it's on the 7th of January which is a school day to boot). Text setting is just fitting the text into the sfx's and bubbles, right? I could probably do that, since for work I'm usually tasked with making posters and other sorts of graphic designs because I'm the most computer savvy one there (and the one who has no life). So I could give it a shot!

Then, depending where I'm at with things, I may just throw the raws at you. See what happens when you volunteer? You get early sneak peaks at doujinshi! You get pushed into free labor.

In other news, Takami x Atsushi is clearly hands down the hottest pair in Shiki. I have seen your picture and shared it; it will convert the masses, who will shout: "Why are doujinshi of it rarer than even ToshioxSesihin?!"

[airlynx]

Challenge accepted! Until the raws are thrown, I shall rest while I still can to build up my strength. I wouldn't call it free labor since I'm the one that gets to mooch off of your Shiki translations! Fanwork is the currency.

Step aside, Seishin! Move over, Mutou! Y'all are out, and The Next Top Shiki Pairing is in.
Then the black market dealings will start. On the dark streets of London, Paris, and Rio de Janeiro, trench-coat clad Shiki fans will meet in secret, exchanging Atsumi fanart and fanfiction right under the noses of the police.



Buuuut, that has given me the idea of making a brave attempt at making an Atsumi doujinshi of my own. I can see it now: yaoi hands, sparkling eyes, shoujo bubbles...

[sinnesspiel]

Bara, fish lips, yaoi hands, and Shiki fashion. Not only will you create a new gay porn sensation, you may also create a work of horror more terrifying than Shiki itself.

Gay porn? Don't be lewd! I just want to educate young readers about what true love is by following the footsteps of the strong lead protagonist Atsushi as he demonstrates his devotion to the brazen and brash Officer Takami (in my headcanon Takami is seme) without resorting to physical relationships. So if there are groinal conjunctions, they will take place after marriage thank you very much.

I don't know what's scarier: Atsumi porn or Atsumi fluff.

[sinnesspiel]

Takami has to be seme. He's the cop. This isn't some crazy anarchist pair about overthrowing The Man with seduction! It's a story that shows children what love is all about, to give them at least one healthy pair in this mad, mad world of Sotoba, and to show youth the proper way to be. Assuming the "way to be" is "having a secret tryst with the local married cop who also has two kids."

That's kind of like asking whether getting punched in the left kidney or right kidney is worse, there.

[airlynx]

Because even though Atsushi has guns, the officer has the law on his side. It is a heartwarming story of how love changed an otherwise lawless delinquent into a law-abiding citizen (outside of the bedroom of course), and how a work-obsessed policeman comes to see that one's job isn't everything. In a world of confusing and frightening doctor-monk relationships, this pair will brighten up the dark age of Sotoba romance. As for the officer's family, well it's time to get with the times and learn the value of a second dad who can open any jar in the house.

The worst fear is the fear of the unknown--not knowing what Takami and Atsushi get up to in the dark.
