Went shopping with my mother. Got a bunch of new clothes and some manga. Sweet.
I got the most comfortable pants in the world. If only I could wear them out of the store. They are so damn comfortable I would happily wear them to bed. Light brown and just comfy. A brown shirt with peacock design on it, a black vest, and then a white blouse with a vest sewn into it.
It has been a while since I got manga, so I got Shugo Chara! vol 5 ( God I love this manga so much. ), xxxHolic vol 7, Silver Diamond vol 1( I dunno, just trying something new. ), and then a yaoi manga.
My mother was off wandering the store so I thought I could quickly do a peek through the yaoi stuff. Silly me. Suddenly she was standing right next to me, picking up an unwrapped manga and starts flipping through it and asking me questions about manga.
"Do you really read it backwards. . .do you look for certain writers. . .do unpopular ones just stop. . .how do you pick ones to follow. . ."
I am just staring at the volume she has praying to any god willing to listen that it is a soft-core/boy-love fluffy manga. Because, ya know, like no one
ever unwraps a hardcore yaoi volume in the store. Ever. Nervous, I decide to just be blunt.
Me: All this is porn, mom.
Mother: Really? Is that what 'yaoi' means?
Me: Sort of. . .
Mother: I'm not seeing anything. . .
Me: Okay. Some of it, usually the ones not wrapped are for 16 and up. Some are for adults only. It says on the back usually.
Mother: Oh. So what does 'yuri' mean?
Me: . . .
Me: Okay, 'yaoi' means guy-on-guy and 'yuri' means girl-on-girl.
Mother: *Quickly puts manga back and hurries off.*
He he he.
She also say a pretty magazine that had a drawing on the cover and the following convo happened. . .
Mother: This is the sort of thing you should do! *Picks up magazine.*
Me: Wait, what?
Mom: *Flipping through it.*
Me: You want me to dress up like that?
Mother: No. *Puts it down.*
Me: I can do Gothic-Lolita if you really want me to~
Mother: No.
