Several people asked for a follow up after I asked if I should do it. Well, I did it. It didn't go quite as smoothly as it did in my head, but the important thing is that I saved the yaois and didn't get caught. Gay crime committed successfully

Posting about it might be dumb, but even if someone doxxed me, nobody else at work knew it existed so I'm pretty sure they'd just look like a crazy person. If anyone asks, I made this story up for Hexbear clout, also it was a satirical parody about capitalism's wasteful tendencies, also it all happened in Minecraft.
Another funny angle to this story: years ago, I lived in Japan for a bit, and collected way too much stuff and tried to ship it back in a huge overstuffed box. The box burst open, and I lost most of what was in it - including some NSFW yuri stuff. Once, my gay porn wound up in the hands of a random warehouse worker. Now, I'm a random warehouse worker, and someone else's gay porn has wound up in my hands. The circle is now complete, the cosmic balance is restored. Just like the Biblical story of Job, the Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away :theory-gary:
I'm not quite at a place where I can inspect my haul throughly, so I will provide more details on this story as it develops.
I know everyone's dying to know what I got, but they're proving tough to track down.
Unfortunately the Code Geass has SA, looks like it's one of those ones that uses it as a tragic backstory. There is one that's not explicit, and also has the most info in English:
spoiler
The back cover has a catboy in a skirt.
Idk anything about Loveless. I assume the numbers mean it was published December 28, 2002. Given the date, it may not even be on the internet.
Most of them are from Loveless, actually. The dates range from 2002 (the spoilered one) to 2009 (the Code Geass one, for one).
~~It's not unusual for us to get stuff after it's been sitting in a warehouse for years. I've seen some real old tech come through, like old school typewriters even. 2009 was, coincidentally, only a few years before my trip to Japan, so if their collection was a few years old, it's possible they lost it around the same time.~~ The MHW art book that was with it means it was more recent.
The material is all in Japanese, which I've mostly forgotten. It's all guy-on-guy and ranges from some stuff that looks cutesy and romantic, to some stuff that's very explicit.
On the explicit end
there's one called "Miracle Norton" (translated) and it says in English, "B'sLOG Collection." It's from 2007 and has stuff about a "CD-ROM mini game." The CD isn't there, but there are postcards included with chibi characters. It's not a doujin like the others, it looks like it's an art book, I'm guessing for a porn game.
Apparently the main relationship in Loveless is between a 12 year old and a 20 year old :libertarian-approaching: :cringe:
But none of the Loveless stuff is actually explicit, at least.
Classic Japan moment :japan-cool:
