Vicious August 1998
#I know!#a rare post of old visual kei stuff from me!#the context for this is that on one of my trips after COVID-19#I tried to find a substitute store for Trio2 which had shut down in Nakano Broadway#I had read that there were some magazine shops at least in Ochanomizu#I didn't have data and tried to navigate with my geolocation skills but ended up asking a sort of old officer just to be sure#he said something along the lines of 'but I'm just an old man...'#so a younger man came to his and my rescue and offered to help me#he understood little English and used Google Translate to communicate with me for the most#turned out he was a magazine enthusiast himself and he took me to a couple of stores#they all had only antique magazines like nothing past 2005#he found everything that had Dir en grey at each of those stores#I felt bad after a while because it was not at all what I was looking for#so I ended up buying the Xth magazine that he showed me#see above hah#just so you know I was really close to the store just with my skills#Dir en grey#young#scans#magazine#visual kei#vkei#Kyo#Kaoru#Die#Shinya#Toshiya#makeup#I'm not sure why I'm such a fan of that middle finger nail paint

vere — a rather suspicious book...
mhin — hanging swan sign
leander — green & gold glass
ais — book about birds!
#antique stores my beloved 🤍#touchstarved game#( A SPARROW SINGS ) * my posts!#this got stuck in my drafts#(kuras was a royal typewriter but i thought the book was better!!! i found the magnolia art & that sealed it for me!)#there's also an entire section of tea kettles & cups and i fought the urge to make that ais's#just bc most of them are pink n flowery and more grandmacore lol he'd like some of them i bet but not all#also love the old testament under the book of birds. epic vibes

aaaaaa I forgot how dangerous it is looking for old books in Europe, almost everywhere I went had at least something from the 18thC 😩😩
#also oh my god i found the absolute prettiest edition of Justine but i think you had to buy the whole set#and i don't need the entire clásicos universales de la literatura erótica. then again.#so many of the antique stores i went to don't have price tags on things...?#i don't want to ask about everything and then not be able to buy anything lol
