Ok, so this is an on-again, off-again kind of obsession. I went Digimon nuts for awhile, then let it fade a bit. But when I watch the show...it all comes flooding back.

The first question you may have is, "Why do they share a page?" Well, just like Trowa and Quatre, they share my heart equally, and I love them more as a couple than I do individually. Yes, that's right - I slash 11-year-olds. I truly and honestly believe that Yamato and Taichi are a cute yaoi couple in the making. They may be innocent now, but someday they could be as raunchy as Kizuna's Enjoji and Ranmaru. Ok, maybe not. In fact, you should get that mental image out of your head, right now.

I'm not the only one who slashes these young boys, either. There's a whole community of fans who enjoy discussions, fics, and fanart of Taito (Taichi x Yamato). I love it, because I'm really attached to both boys. Yamato (Matt in English) is the sexy, cool, to die for super-bish, while Taichi (Tai in English) is the makeshift leader, the determined, headstrong cheerleader of the group. They work off each other so well, a ying yang thing, a beautiful match, like a budding Trowa and Quatre. It may not be a constant obsession, but I can't help but get weak in the knees when I see them in episodes like Sub-zero Ice Punch. Oh, yeah. The rolling around one. *doofy grin* That one was made for people like me.
