First, I have made some adjustment to the Cygnus icon so it looks better. Just a simple rotation makes such a big difference! Though the image quality has decreased, however, you can't really tell with this tiny 100x100 dimension. Good enough.
Second, I have never listened to this much gangsta rap and hiphop in my life until I started writing this story haha. Yes, I realize that in late 90s and early 00s Japan there are 1) no gangsta rap, 2) no drugs, and 3) no one in those tiny, not-sound-proof Shinjuku flats will blast loud music because they're friggin' Japanese. BUT, but but but, I really like the idea of, say, Hyoga and Nachi just cramming linear algebra problem sets the day before they're due while 2Pac is playing in the background. Or the Bronze Saints are all in Jabu's substantially bigger apartment drinking and chatting and smoking weed on a Friday night (Miho can be there too if she wants). Or that Nachi's getting comfortable on the floor of his flat while sipping some lean, while behind him on the couch (it's a really small flat) Hyoga and Shiryu are just making out (while both are on some kind of substance let's say they're mostly sober because they're just that kind of responsible (???) people). And Nachi looks over in the haze of weed smoke, with of course some hiphop song about smoking blasting from his shitty-ass boombox, and be like, yo, dudes, this is NOT how you do friends-with-benefits okay?? Like you're just setting yourselves up for utter failure kissing like that! Etc. Etc.
I may have to add that last bit into one of Nachi's Interlude scenes. Because it's too good to pass up haha. I'm not sure how many Nachi stories I want to include but there are at least two now. If I never post it it's okay, at least I've written it out, so I have it somewhere in my file.
