SIGNAL BOOST: SAY YES TO GAY YA

mobiuswolf — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 21:52:11 GMT

Originally posted by darkspirited1 at SIGNAL BOOST: SAY YES TO GAY YA

This comes from an article by rachelmanija entitled, Say Yes to Gay YA.
(click the link for the full article)

Our novel Stranger has five viewpoint characters; one, Yuki Nakamura, is
gay and has a boyfriend. Yuki's romance, like the heterosexual ones in
the novel, involves nothing more explicit than kissing.

An agent from a major agency, one which represents a bestselling YA novel in the same genre as ours, called us.

The agent offered to sign us on the condition that we make the gay
character straight, or else remove his viewpoint and all references to
his sexual orientation.

This isn't about that specific agent; we'd gotten other rewrite requests before this one. Previous agents had also offered to take a second look if we did rewrites… including cutting the viewpoint of Yuki, the gay character.

It's time to stand up and demand change. Spread the word everywhere if you are just as angry and outraged by this.

[fic] Kyou Kara Maou - A Game of Words

mobiuswolf — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 16:31:51 GMT

Title: A Game of Words
Series/Characters: Kyou Kara Maou - Gwendal, Yozak
Word Count: 275
Rating: G
Timeline: after Conrad leaves for Earth
Notes: written for kkm_challenge's round 18 (Backstory prompt)
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters or recognizeable elements of Kyou Kara Maou. No copyright infringement is intended and no profit is being made.

Gwendal returned from the Great One’s temple leading his brother’s horse.

When he reached the stable he dismissed the groom who hurried over to take Conrad’s horse, preferring to care for the animal himself. After both horses were cleaned and fed Gwendal lingered with Conrad’s horse, asking him the questions he’d been unable to ask his brother about the things he’d seen in the war. He rested his forehead against the horse’s neck, “Conrad will come back, I promise.” Gwendal pulled his greatcoat back on and turned to leave the stables.

“Your Excellency should be more careful about where he has serious conversations with animals who can’t talk.” Gwendal glared at the young woman who emerged from a stall near where he stood. “Never know who might be listening or what rumors they might spread,” she smiled at him, but it was bitter and left her blue eyes cold and challenging. She tucked an errant lock of flame-red hair back under her riding scarf, “You’d have been better off asking me.”

Gwendal stepped closer to the woman, leaning down to whisper in her ear, “Had I asked you, would your answer have been true, Yozak, or would I have wasted my time on more of the same drivel that was in the officers’ reports?”

Yozak stepped back to meet Gwendal’s gaze. “For you? The truth, because you’re willing to act on it.”

Gwendal nodded. “Then come to my office when you’ve changed.”

Yozak smirked, “Don’t want people gettin’ the wrong idea, eh?”

The corner of Gwendal’s mouth twitched, “Precisely. Though I may have a practical use for your other talents in the future.”

[fic] Kyou Kara Maou - Conspicuous

Title: Conspicuous
Series/Characters: Kyou Kara Maou - Gwendal, Raven
Word Count: 203
Rating: G
Timeline: set very pre-series
Notes: written for kkm_challenge's round 17
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters or recognizeable elements of Kyou Kara Maou. No copyright infringement is intended and no profit is being made.

Over the past week Raven had become increasingly aware that he was being watched. Every time he looked for the source of his unease he found Gwendal staring at him. The boy would hold his gaze a moment before turning away, but after a few minutes Raven would notice the staring resume. After years of being comfortably invisible unless needed this new scrutiny was unnerving.

It was something of a relief when the boy approached him after dinner. “How do you do it?”

“Do what, young master?”

“Make people not notice you,” Gwendal glared up at him. “I’ve been studying you all week and I can’t figure out how you do it.”

Raven stared at the boy, “Why?”

“Because I’m young there are those who want to use my inexperience to advance their own positions. And because I am inexperienced I can’t tell which of my would-be advisors are worth trusting.” He signed, “If I could learn to be less conspicuous it would give me opportunities to hear the things they don’t want me to know.”

Raven nodded, “It will be more difficult because of who you are.”

Gwendal smiled bitterly, “Of course. But Walde will not suffer because I didn’t try.”

[fic] Kyou Kara Maou - The Littlest Things

mobiuswolf — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 16:16:42 GMT

Title: The Littlest Things
Series/Characters: Kyou Kara Maou - Adelbert, Gwendal
Word Count: 293
Rating: PG?
Timeline: Set during OVA ep.2
Notes: written for kkm_challenge's round 17. Inspired by Sassafrass's "Fall"
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters or recognizeable elements of Kyou Kara Maou. No copyright infringement is intended and no profit is being made.

“Adelbert, when you see Yozak tell him I need to speak with him.”
Adelbert turned to stare at the man interrupting his lunch. “Why ask me Lord von Walde?”
“He was supposed to be here, the servants have work to do, and you’re the only person in the room I know will recognize him.” Gwendal turned to leave.
“That’s all you have to say after twenty years?” Adelbert challenged.
With a sigh Gwendal turned back to the blond, “What is there to say?”
“So you’re willing to just forgive and forget?” Adelbert sneered.
“Forgive?” Gwendal’s expression hardened. “Do you really think what you’ve done can be forgiven so easily? Just because I tolerate your presence as a competitor here don’t think I’ve forgotten what you cost this country.”
Adelbert nodded. “I expected to be turned away at the harbor.”
“Then why come at all?”
“I wanted to see this new Shin-Makouku the young king is building with my own eyes.” Gwendal sighed, clearly expecting more of an answer.
The other man chuckled, “And because I might get to fight Sir Weller again.”
Gwendal smiled slightly, “Of course.”
The silence that fell between them was oddly comfortable. Adelbert used the opportunity to study his unexpected companion. He’d watched Gwendal change from a serious youth to a bitter man as he’d tried to protect the kingdom from Stoffel’s decisions and the escalating war. He looked tired now and older than twenty years could account for.
Adelbert looked away. “Stop working yourself to death,” he muttered softly.
Gwendal stared at the larger man but was interrupted by Yozak hollering from the doorway before he could reply. When he turned back, Adelbert was already walking away and Gwendal couldn’t bring himself to call the man back.
