Fic recs?

Well, I did tell [livejournal.com profile] scribblemoose that I wanted a new fandom. Bleach is most definitely it.

So where are all the good writers? None of my usual favourites seem to write in this world. Poking the LJ communities I've found so far has just made me realise how high the standard of writing for Saiyuki really is.

Does anyone have any recs?


(ION, Harold *is* most likely an allergy according to the doctor. It isn't worth getting a test because they just aren't accurate enough and would only end up with being told to use Beconase anyway. Which has helped with the sneezing, thankyou, but not the sinuses. Curses.)

I love Yoruichi when she messes with Ichigo that way. ^_^

Yes, it's the same word - Captain - just an alternate spelling.

Butbutbut! Why is it *General* Kenren, in that case, but only (hah!) *Captain* Kuchiki?

I think (and I'm not exactly a leading expert in Japanese, so forgive me if I'm wrong) that the rank of Taishou is usually ranked as General in western army terms. However, the Bleach rankings aren't strictly army ones, and as 'Taishou' literally means something more like 'Unit Commander' which fits the Soul Society ranks just fine, it's used there and translated into English as 'Captain'.

I think, anyway. ^_^
