blast from the past

Got a review for the 2nd fic I ever wrote (which I posted in 2001). Why do I even still have it up. XD;;

*looks at it*

First person. Body-swap. XD; 10 years later (I started Bittersweet Sweetness in 2011...), I'm still writing the same tropes, hahaha. But thankfully with no badly developed OC as the main character this time, pffft. I still remember that I based that fic off a dream I had. OTL That character totally shared a bunch of traits with me...

*goes back to editing Bittersweet Sweetness* My deadline was the end of 2013... Well, now it's the end of June. Two weeks left! I don't know how many times I've reread this story already... (IT WILL HAPPEN. I WILL FINISH THIS.)

Oh, also, yay, the epic rap battle skit between Edward and Eren has been posted online. XD; Funniest skit I saw at Fanime this year!

Wooooow you've been writing fanfiction much longer than I have! That's exciting though - I love it when people review things from early on and you get to go back and read/skim through the story... and perhaps be pleasantly surprised by what you wrote?

Good luck with Bittersweet Sweetness! YOU CAN DO IT! I'm re-reading Part 4 to be printed... 47/303 pages so far. It's soooooo long OTL.

... That epic rap battle skit completely made my night. I was DYING when Edward started rapping... and then ROY MUSTANG SHOWS UP!!!! ERRMAHHGAWD I LOVE ROY MUSTANG! /favorited

I can't even with myself, to have been writing fanfiction for some 14 years... You would think I'd have written a lot by now (and maybe improved...) but... not really... :'D Though some of the writing from back then is pleasantly surprising, while some parts of it make me cringe a lot, haha! But other times, I go, "Wow, I was a lot more imaginative back then!" (I do have this bad habit of rereading/skimming my stories whenever someone reviews old ones...)

I'd like to finish before AX! *____* Fight-o, Hymn! I'm rereading the book version I put together and sort of going over the PDF version too, and I am holding my head in despair because why don't these two versions match up!!!! I thought both had my latest corrections... Mine comes out to be 351 pages at the moment (with other short stories added in).

It was such an amazing skit! I laughed my head off with Ed's rapping, and then ROY. WITH THE MINI SKIRT COMMENT. And omg, the answer to the comment, hahahaha. XD Really awesome skit.

Wow, that really is a funny skit! Thank you for sharing that link!

(and good luck finished Bittersweet Sweetness by your new deadline! ...I know how it can be to have a fic take longer and longer to write...)

Their skit from last year was amusing too! (I think it was a rap between Ciel and Oz)

I'm so, so close. XD; I finished rereading. *nods*
