arashi spam!
9 Sep 2006 03:02 pm"isn't it sweeet?"
"maybe someday the whole WORLD can become as accustomed to inappropriate public displays of affection as the members of arashi are!"
aiba has some kind of strange affinity with root vegetables. phallic ones. although whether that's actually what he's talking about here...
"actually it was more like THIS big, thankyouverymuch."
aiba and jun as co-hosts are brilliant. although not as brilliant as aiba the magician cutting in half jun in a bunny suit would be. (i'm just saying.)
also, aiba is pretty.
jun starts the aiba-baachan episode rolling his eyes at aiba's dorky bounciness, which is a bit much to put up with on top of the snow...
...but he only holds out for about three seconds.
"usually we divide up all the work and one person goes with the grandpa and does all the tough work like moving logs and feeding large vicious birds in the snow and wading through the mud, while one stays in the house with the baachan and cooks and bonds and, if he's nino, naps for half the day! right, matsujun?"
"right, well, in that case i'll go start lunch and aiba can go with grandpa."
(not so fast! says aiba!)
(plz note: this dialogue is made up but it is more or less the gist of the scene)
"but it's COLD out!" says jun. he's kind of a princess. ♥
the thing about this grandpa is that he's a widower, so instead of helping grandma, aiba gets to cook and clean by himself. and he, uh, dresses up. as a grandma. in a wig. and spends the day dusting and getting misty-eyed over the poor dead grandma and lonely grandpa, and also cooking. jun spends a lot of the day making faces like this.
also when aiba comes outside to ask grandpa what he should put in the lunch - still dressed in his floral granny coveralls and ruffly pink bib and grey wig - jun makes a face much more like this: "XD!"
"there's something weird over there," says jun, glimpsing aiba through the fence, and goes over to him making this XD face, and by the time he gets there can hardly choke out words instead of cracking up. "you adorable idiot, what the hell are you doing?" says jun.
then grandpa gives aiba a single ostrich egg to make lunch from and aiba's like "um... okay."
"make me something good!" says jun sternly.
"um... yeah," says aiba brightly. "i get it!"
"no," says jun, "but do you really get it?"
"yeah!" aiba chirps, "i get it! it's fine, it's fine!" - and turns around to leave and immediately makes a ":?" face.
the scene with him trying to open the ostrich egg with sandpaper, a saw, and finally a hammer is one of the most beautiful things to ever grace a mago episode.
meanwhile, jiichan removes a baby ostrich from its cage and deposits it in jun's hands. jun isn't happy about this.
"just because i'm a boyband member doesn't mean i like baby animals," jun thinks.
behold the aiba baachan outfit.
this is from the group meeting scene taped afterward, when they're reporting their activities to ohno, nino, and sho. jun has not quite lost the "what is the matter with you, you adorable idiot?" attitude.
sidenote: nino caressing ohno's leg with his foot.
in the dinner scene at the end, jun makes his appearance in a lavender tshirt and a purple leather bomber jacket, with sparkly vamp red on his fingernails.
oh, jun, you can wear lavender at me any time.

Date: 9 Sep 2006 12:41 pm (UTC)Unfortunately I'm pretty sure I threw away all my variety tapes. I do have a lot of old Music Stations and such where you can see them all dancing backup, and I have boxes of teen magazines from like 96-98. I should go look in the garage for those this weekend. I've been meaning to get them out and see if I can see them anyway (sadly a lot of them have pages cut out, so I'm sure I won't get a ton of money for them).

No Ohno, cause I always thought he was fug, and thus did not cut out any pics of him.
