Even men with perms can be serious.
Jul. 1st, 2008 09:22 pmI've got an organ that's more important to me than my heart. You can't see it, but it's in me. And it's all that holds me up. It's why I can stand up straight, and walk straight, even when I'm bleeding and dizzy. If I run now it'll tear in half. My soul...will tear in half. I'd rather my heart stopped than that. Even when I'm old and bent my soul's got to be straight.
--Gintoki Sakata (Gintama vol. 6, Lesson 43: All Men Are Romantics)
I feel seriously lame admitting this, but that quote touched me so much that I just sat there struggling not to cry for like five minutes. If anyone had walked in at that point they would probably wonder why I was weeping over a series about samurai and aliens, of all things. Gintama is usually such a crazy series, but yeah, there are moments that move me. ...I AM SUCH A SAP.
This happens quite a bit, though--being touched by totally random things, that is. There's this one scene from Avatar: The Last Airbender that's been bouncing around in my head for the last few weeks (mainly because what was said in it, that one goddamn quote, has burned itself into my head in such a way that I've been trying to relate it to the entire series; GO BACK TO BEING LAZY, BRAIN), but I'll talk about that some other time.

But wait, don't try and take me seriously just yet! Because there's a new Metal Gear Solid Kink Meme and the post used to pimp it over at
