Pirates! (and Gojyo and the Major-General's Daughters)

[chomiji]

The Young Lady's high school spring musical opens tonight: The Pirates of Penzance (she's been doing costumes and stage crew stuff). I saw a bit of the rehearsal the other night when I went to pick her up, and their Modern Major-General is quite good, especially for a teen.

But somehow the plotline about the Major-General's numerous nubile daughters has smerged in my mind with Gojyo and Hakkai's wierdly cute little conversation on the bridge in Saiyuki Reload vol. 6 - the one where Hakkai paints this bizarre vision of the domestic bliss he'd like, and finishes with something like "My only worry is that my lovely daughters might fall prey to Uncle Gojyo."

And now I wanna see Gojyo in a pirate hat, singing and dancing and leering at the Major-General's daughters with the rest of the pirate chorus ... . (Lately I can make almost everything come back to Saiyuki if I try hard enough!)

Thanks. Payroll screwed up 30 paychecks, including mine, resulting in no paychecks until after the banks were closed yesterday. Major pain, I seem to keep talking to various people about Saiyuki the last few days.
