"I am pudding. Anybody who eats me will be happy."

Hadaka is quickly becoming one of my favorite Eyeshield 21 fanfic authors out there, 1.) because this person actually writes Agon/Sena fic, which is a rare pairing, OMG and 2.) to me this author has a really good grasp of ES21 characters and writes them well. Her Hiruma is devious and manipulative, Sena is timid yet capable of surprising you, Agon is a bully who can be douche-y to the extreme, etc. I'm so obsessed with hadaka's writing right now that I really can't stop myself from repeatedly F5-ing her author page for updates each night. Ahhh, I'm lame.

I might as well admit right now that it was through one of hadaka's fanfic that I discovered Takahashi Hiroshi's shonen manga Worst, which I briefly mentioned being in love with yesterday. I randomly decided to check out Yarichin, her ES21/Worst crossover fic, despite knowing absolutely nothing about Worst, and it is just so funny and kinda insane. The character of Hanaki Guriko quickly grabbed my attention and I decided that it would probably be in my best interest to read the manga. And as I've already mentioned: I love it, I love it.

Anyway, hadaka is awesome, Worst is awesome. If you enjoy Eyeshield 21 you should definitely read her fic.

And now, Links!

× Photos of kids cosplaying as video game characters. I'm not particularly fond of children, but the ones dressed as Mario and Luigi look very cute.

× Semi-related to the above: Know someone having a baby? How about knitting them this Baby Link Outfit! Check it out, the quiver can hold a baby bottle! Pretty awesome.

× Art created out of Rubik's Cubes

× 30+ pieces of Legend of Zelda illustrations, some of which look really cool. This one is, by far, my favorite.

× Sega says Ryū ga Gotoku 3 isn't worth localizing for a stateside release. Whyyyyy. I love the Yakuza series and would love to see Yakuza 3 released in the US. I'd buy it, Sega!

× Apparently at the National Museum of Nature and Science in Tokyo you can see the preserved bodies of Hachiko, Japan's most famous dog, and other notable canines. This is morbidly fascinating.

× From Sprite Stitch: Chainmail Yoshi inlay | Beaded Earrings of video game sprites

× This Pikmin chalk art is really awesome looking.

× Photorgraphs by Patrick Runte of old school video games--like Pac-Man and Pong--come to life.

× Servbot pudding! Servbots are adorable, but I wonder how this pudding tastes?

Ooh, thanks for sharing, especially the Zelda goodies ♥
The baby Link outfit is adorable and I am passing that on to a friend ^^
I always love looking at collections of video game fanart : D Although I recognize a lot of the pieces from dA, there were also many interesting and amazing new ones. :]

Glad you enjoyed the links! ♥

I wish I could knit (or knew someone who could knit that wouldn't give me a weird look if I gave them this pattern) since the Baby Link outfit really looks like such a fun project to make. Oh well, I'll stick to cross-stitching, I guess. :D
