baby steps II

Until today I don't understand why I fell so hard for Arashi! I mean, I was a girl crazy for Hollywood movies! I didn't lose one release at movie theaters!!! My favorite movies were from Golden Era (40's to 60's) and horror movies! I loved to dance American music!!! House Dance, Rhythm and Blues, Pop, Rock!

As I said, I had no relation with Japan.

Now, so many of my preferences revolve around Arashi. I lost track of Hollywood movies. The track list on my smartphone and notebook? J-Pop! And you don't hear that nowhere around here! Family parties, wedding parties, pool parties, pubs, radio stations....

J-movies on movie theaters here? In your dreams!!! (although seems that 君の名は is going to be airing here....). It is so frustrating! There are so many amazing movies, dramas that the whole world should watch to!!!

I fell for Arashi, but I confess now that my attention was fractional.

First, it was Jun! His looks, his energy, his attitude!!! I didn't imagine someone like him could exist!!!

Then, my Ichiban, Neen ♥ The cutest kitten!!!

For a long time my attention was only for these two!!! I only looked for them!!!

A bit after, Sho's lips got my attention. To me, Sho was manly, intelligent, from a imposing family, good-two-shoes and angry LOL I loved him and feared him at the same time! Still do!!!

The friendship between Nino and Aiba and the shameless skinship between Sho and Aiba, made me have a bit of interest over the Miracle Boy. From time to time, the interest grows or weakens. It depends on what he is doing. But yes, he is beautiful, has
an incredible smile and I believe that he is not the fool some people believe!

About Rīdā.... Oddly, he was the last to get my attention, and when he got it, I fell head over feet for him!!! Now I know that what kept me away from him was jealousy!!! I was jealous of all the intimacy he had with my Ichiban... I know... I am stupid!!!! I wanted to be on his place...

But, when I started noticing him near Jun (live tours and magazine issues)... I liked it. I think that I started to really see and love our Rīdā last year, watching to SekaMuzu! That was the last bastion to fall and I was his! And it was so smashing that also started to luuuv "blond" Rīdā!!!

Since I started to be an Arashi fan, no other Johnny's talent got so deep into my heart like Arashi.

For all these almost five years my only interest has been Arashi.

But because of them, every time I saw another Idol or celebrity loving Arashi, I automatically wanted to know who they were! Aside from Ikuta Toma, that was my first Johnny's and is a loved one, I got to know a little about TOKIO, V6, Hey! Say! Jump!, Sexy Zone and Higashiyama Noriyuki. And I like the little I know!

I have some points of personal shame, though.... I couldn't be able to like SMAP and Takeuchi Yuko.....

And I feel bad about it. Because SMAP is a Senpai to be respected. I listened to very few SMAP songs trying to find a spark... Nothing. I tried to fall for KimuTaku watching to Asunaro Hakusho and to I'm Home... Nothing. I have a list of dramas to watch to... I need to like at least him, since Nino admires his acting skills and they will work together!!!!

Takeuchi Yuko. Nino has a crush on her. This is tough. I thought that through "Natsu no Koi" would be easy since Jun is the King of Romance and he is so delicious with older women.... but, no!!! Nothing!!! I was shocked!!! I did not feel any chemistry between them!!! I couldn't even finish to watch the drama!!! ｡･ﾟﾟ･(>д<)･ﾟﾟ･｡ And Jun was soooo hoooot with that hair, and that waist, and with that cute little girl!!!

When I listen to Love Rainbow I think of Jun and Ohno cuddling on that sofa ♥ ♥

Arashi is my North. They give me inspiration and pleasure!

Sometimes, surfing through posts on LJ, I see people saying "I am a Kanjani 8's fan, but now I am an Arashi fan", or "I am an Arashi and Kiss My Foot's fan" , or even "I've got distanced from Arashi", and I try to imagine me on this situation. Or other times, I see a nice old comment and I look for the fan's blog and see that the person's blog has no updates since 2009, 2010, and I wonder if this will happen to me....

I love Arashi so much!!! I don't want to stop!!!!

baby steps III

Instead of make questions that I thought were silly around the FanDom, I rather stay quiet, observing and .... researching.

But, research did not help me much with a delightful topic: Pairing.

All the time that I was looking for Arashi, most of time, or I was directed to something on Tumblr or to LJ.

On Tumblr I discovered Gifs (Gosh!! Where was I from? Jupiter?!! Geez!!) that I loved, and marvelous images. On LJ...... FanFics.... mostly......

We are always learning something new, I always say!

In 2013 I opened an account on Tumblr and one on LJ!

I loved Tumblr (still love it, ardently)!!! So much info about our boys! Lots of images and.... I was understanding nothing about OhMiya, SakurAiba, Ten'nen.....

In my momentary stupidity, I thought that Pairing was about the pair that you liked the most. Your favorite ones. Just that. So, when asked about it, I thought about my Ichiban and my Niban: MatsuMiya!

And so, I searched about.... MatsuMiya... and I discovered something called: Shipping ♡ ♡

Let the "FanFics' devouring" time begging!

Targeting for MatsuMiyas, I found some pretty good stuffs, frequently bumping into OhMiyas. Those one creepy-ed me out, so I avoided them.

It was kind of difficult to find plenty of MatsuMiyas, though... I started to think that it was difficult to “pair” Nino. With Aiba or Sho, no way!! One was his BFF and the other was his Aniki! So, I relied on Jun!

Occasionally, I would drifted to SakurAibas, but I felt guilty... BUT... there were so much skinship between these two dorks on TV and live tours, that I surrendered! And then SakurAiba entered my list of "ships"! Although, I "did them" discretely, because I sincerely thought that one should be faithful to one ship only!!

(In off: I tried one or two JunBas... didn’t work at all. I also tried Yama. Nothing! OhBas... some was cute, but didn’t stick.).

So, life in FanDom was going great and then, another Pairing started to poke my heart: the sweet JunToshi. This is one thing that I don't know how to explain... the passion! The way Jun and Ohno look at each other, the kind of serious skinship they have, the age and height difference.... Gosh!!! They look like sweethearts on their honeymoon trip on the magazine issues!!! And this ship I was not bothering to have!!! I think that Jun touches Ohno more than he touches Nino!!!

But my heart did not stop there! In the beginning of this year I had a nice overdose of SakuMoto (with to great chaptered fics!!!) and they took SakurAiba down!!! O.O I started to get reaaally curious about the way Jun and Sho just don’t delivered FanService!!! Why, why, why?!! This is so effing suspicious!!! Specially inside a group like Arashi that, apparently, doesn't acknowledge the existence of self-space!!!

Also, I started to be more tolerant with OhMiya (since Ohno was powerful/dangerous/strong in the fics). After all, OhMiya is an institution!

But I think the real reason for that was a wonderful discover I made!!!!! I finally found MY IDEAL PAIRING!!!! After 4 years reading FanFics I have a Pairing!!!!

Are you ready?!

NINO+JUN+OHNO (♥ω♥*)

That’s my OTP!!!!

And I am so happy with that!!!! Ohno has to get with the babies!!!
