so I mentioned I've been reading, and occasionally writing, fanfiction. Having seen that people write real-people-fic about baseball players, mostly having them sleep with one another, I'm very sad that there aren't any fics in English about Japanese baseball. I am being horribly tempted to write a fic slashing Yuki Saito with Masahiro Tanaka. It would have a nice built-in plot arc, thank you Koshien finals fifteen-inning tie etc. etc., would in fact be ridiculously easy to do (allowing for the fact that, you know, I don't really know what either one of them is like as a person, nor am I likely to, and so their inner lives would have to be pretty damn fictionalized). But nobody would get it. Sigh. 
Another question: is it ethical to write fiction about real living people doing things they don't do in real life? (Historical fiction of whatever kind I have no problem with, as long as it's well done. Fiction about dead people with living relatives who knew them is a little dicier, requiring some respect.) I'm inclined to feel, well, ethical, no, not really. If I were famous, I wouldn't be thrilled to find that people were writing fiction about my sex life. Unfairly, I feel like I'd have a slight ethical edge writing about Yu-chan and Ma-kun in English, since the chances that they could or would read it would be extremely minimal.
Well, it's all just doodling. Back to the daily round.
