It was time for a lot of dust and roaring engines at Kameel. The #Twinstar TIORC - Inland Off Road Championship happened during the #Kameel600. We took position for some photo opportunities as the vehicles came out of the fields of Kameelbult and crossed the Madibogo road to roar down a stretch of land next to the railway line. #twinstarkameel600 #TIORC #Penta #racing #offroad #sun #dusty #racecar #speed #Nikon #Kameelhuisetussenspore (at Kameelbult) https://www.instagram.com/p/CldKYxct7Oa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Twinstar Cyclone Runaway
I'd like to put this yuri novel series/manga adaptation on people's radar because I think it might appeal to people who like to explore the tension between societal expectations for a relationship and what people actually find fulfilling. The novels, written by multiple Seiun Award winner Issui Ogawa, are currently at three volumes and counting. A manga adaptation by Ahiru Tanaka got underway in July and currently has two chapters out, both of which have been scanlated into English.
The story is set around a gas giant planet named Fat Beach Ball, a resource-starved gas giant planet. The economy revolves around Besshu (or gloomfish), fish-like creatures which inhabit the skies of the planet. These fish contain a versatile material used for everything from food to rocket fuel to building material, and are hauled in by enforced husband-wife fishing teams. Terra Intercontinental Endeavor is a 24 year old woman who has inherited her parents' fishing business, and who is struggling to find a husband in part due to her own indifference to who she fishes with, and in part due to the incompatibility of her workflow/imagination with the men she's set up on marriage interviews with.
She has a 'love at first sight' moment with a woman who introduces herself as "Diode" and who immediately requests a marriage interview in spite of the rules against woman-woman fishing pairs.
Diode (whose name is short for DIE-over-dose) turns out to be an excellent pilot, and her skills end up being an excellent match for Terra's unconventional approaches to fishing. It turns out that Diode is also an 18-year old runaway who is an out lesbian, and is trying to find a way to escape marriage herself.
Without going into too much detail about the novels (mostly because my knowledge of them is secondhand), the story follows Terra and Diode's attempts to remain independent within the omnipresent heteronormative and patriarchal culture at Fat Beach Ball and the ups and downs of their budding romance. If fishing is your thing, there's also a lot about the different techniques to be used as well. If you need an endorsement too, Iori Miyazawa (Otherside Picnic) has been pretty enthusiastic about it on Twitter, and after the most recent volume of his work, I figure he knows what's up in terms of sf-flavored yuri.
Give it a try, and if you like it, recommend it to your friends! It would be great to see this work hit the critical mass needed to make the novels more accessible to fandoms outside of Japan.
