(ooc note: OK this ended up being as far from a fanfic style drabble as it could have possibly been. In fact, it pretty much became a personal essay, much like the ones I wrote for my creative non-fiction classes back in college. But uh, yeah. Sorry about that. IT'S STILL ABOUT K THOUGH! AND I WROTE SOMETHING AND THAT'S WHAT COUNTS!!)
/clears throat/
Hello. My name is Lauren and I'm addicted to glasses.
I'm not entirely sure when my addiction began, but I can safely say I know who kick started it. John Flansburgh from the band They Might Be Giants. Hot damn. He's got that jet black hair and those thick framed glasses and... mmmmnnn
Ah! S-sorry. Well yeah, so glasses are kinda my thing, I guess. I mean, just check my Skype or AIM screennames if ya don't believe me - they're both flansysglasses, after all. And I own like, what... 20+ pairs of store-bought reading glasses, in a variety of designs and frame colors. Even though I have perfect 20/20 vision. Seriously, I must be the only person in existence that hates the fact that they can read perfectly and doesn't need to spend $200 on a pair of designer frames.
...It's just not fair, man. I mean, wtf.
But anyway, as I was saying. The glasses thing doesn't just effect my fashion sense or...sanity? ...what? Um, anyway. It's had a bold impact on the characters I've been attracted to, especially in anime and manga. ‘Cause in each one, there's always that one megane character and god damnit are they always fucking hot. And you know - oh YOU KNOW it's those glasses! You can't deny that - don't you even try, because you're already wrong.
Now I’m just throwing some out off the top of my head here but, let’s see...
Mikami Teru from Death Note was drop dead gorgeous (no pun intended.) And yeah, he looked nice without the glasses on, but once he did put them on - HO. LEE. SHIT. He could sakujo me as many times as Kira wanted, I wouldn’t care. My longest standing muse, William T. Spears from Kuroshitsuji - obviously a hottie. And yeah, I know all the reapers wear glasses. But William has those classic, rectangular, thick black framed ones that just make me shiver. Plus the way he adjusts them all the time and constantly harps on how important they are... He’s such a tease to my kinks. IT’S LIKE HE KNOWS ME~
...that didn’t sound creepy did it? No? OK, good.
I don’t know if any of you watched Princess Jellyfish, but Shu Koibuchi is fucking adorable. Definitely shows a bit more emotion than some of my other favorite meganes but still, he has that classic dark hair/dark glasses combo that just makes me want to jump him when ever he comes on the screen~ And, who can possibly leave out Kyoya Ootori from Ouran Host Club or Uryu Ishida from Bleach? kasdgglkahsdglhwkjsd. Sorry, words...they weren’t a thing there.
Now, that’s just a few but, you get the idea. I have a type. That type wears glasses. And I stick to that type, pretty damn regularly. Not that I don’t like other characters, but something about those glasses always makes me weak in the knees and the one caught wearing them is always a high ranker on my list of faves.
...But...then a little thing called K came along...
And K just fucked everything up. And I’m not even talking about how it ripped my heart out and beat it with a lead pipe. So, now you know that this shit is real, because you thought that that was the bad part! But no. K took everything I thought I knew about what I liked and flipped it upside down.
In K there are two main characters that wear glasses - Munakata and Fushimi - and NEITHER of them give me chills in a naughty, panty-dropping way. Nope. Only in a creeping me the fuck out way. Don’t get me wrong, I like their character designs - they’re interesting and everything - but they’re wearing glassesssss.... I’m not supposed to wanna fast forward through their parts on screen or scroll past their fanart on Tumblr. Their sex appeal should be sky rocketing out into orbit for me. But instead I’m just like, “Whoooooa dudes, back up there. It’s a thing called personal space.” I kinda just wanna jump into K universe just so I can rip their glasses off and give them a lecture on how they are so not worthy of wearing such sacred relics. ...And then I’d entertain the thought of slipping one of the confiscated pairs on Seri, ‘cause duh, she’d be there, but I don’t think my panties could take that.
sigh
Now, I feel I need to add this bit just for disclaimer purposes, because there are technically three side characters who wear glasses. But we aren’t really given enough information on any of them for me to make any super accurate judgements. First, there's that one high school girl whose name I don't even know so, whatever. She's not important. Second there's Enomoto. Enomoto is adorable, yes, but he's a Blue and...well, I shouldn't have to say any more than that. And last, we have Dewa. And, I admit that, given the chance, I would totally bang the hell out of Dewa. But, honestly I’d do any HOMRA boy if the opportunity presented itself, glasses or not. So, I just had to clear that little matter up.
ANYWAY. So yeah, wtf is up K? Breaking my heart with your storyline wasn’t enough? Now, you have to go and be “a story full of...” not hot glasses wearers?
Ya know what, K? I give up. I can’t take you anymor--
Wait. ...Who's that? That man behind the bar, with the blond hair and flirtatious smile? He's nothing like my usual type yet, somehow, I feel so drawn to him.
And whoa whoa whoa-- who's that guy?? What do you mean "who?" That idiot over there who won't stop shouting. I mean, yeah, he's got that jet black hair I usually like but... do you see all those emotions just pouring out of him?! I... I'm not used to this. I don't understand what's going on, K. What is this you're showing me?
Izumo Kusanagi and Saburouta Bandou... Neither of these characters are like any I've ever clung to before. But, this attraction I'm feeling is just as strong. It's almost as if...as if they're wearing [ dun dun duuuun ] GLASSES!!!
But they're not. Or, at least not nerdy, thick framed, prescription ones. No - Izumo's got these purple-tinted sunglasses on. And Bandou's wearing sunglasses, too. 'Cept his look like he stole them out of some woman's purse. Oh, but they look so good in them... nnnnngh so good~
[ we apologize for this brief lapse in writing, but the author is too busy drooling on her keyboard. An unfortunate side effect of keeping Memory of Red open in a secondary window while trying to type up a drabble. ]
Wa-wa-wait!! NO! IZUMO PUT YOUR SUNGLASSES BACK ON! WHY DO YOU EVEN NEED TO TAKE THEM OFF TO SLEEP?! I MEAN, SERIOUSLY?
OH GOD NO! BANDOU, YOUR SUNGLASSES BROKE AGAIN?! GO AND GET THEM FIXED AND STOP GETTING KICKED IN THE FACE BY MAGICAL HORSES!!
a-ah! S-sorry. I got a little distracted there. Um, well K, I think maybe I understand now. You weren't trying to confuse me - just trying to make me realize.
I'm not only addicted to glasses. I love sunglasses, too.
Thanks, K ~♥
