[livejournal.com profile] parallelsfic has started once again! \o\ It's a rare Asian fandoms fanwork exchange. Nominations end on June 15. Sign-ups are between June 16-June 29, and assignments go out on July 1 and are due in a month on August 1. Here's the A03 collection, nominations for series/characters go here, and series that have already been nominated can be viewed here.

I'm super excited. :DDDD Many series have already been nominated! Assassination Classroom, Haikyuu, Hataraku Maou-sama, Fire Emblem (several of them!!! Rekka no Ken, Fuuin no Tsurugi, Path of Radiance, Awakening... ahhhh), just to name a few series I'm currently into... So many other awesome nominations too, like Suikoden I, III, Tierkreis (none of which I can write, but I would love fic), Shingeki no Kyojin, Kuragehime, Oresama Teacher... Last year, I wrote a Kuroko no Basket fic for Parallels. I wonder what I'll end up writing this year? :3 I certainly don't feel KnB can be considered a "rare" fandom anymore, haha. Awakening and Shingeki no Kyojin are both fairly popular at the moment, but fics are only just starting out, so hopefully people don't feel they're too popular to be rare. (Also, for Awakening... there don't seem to be many fics about Libra yet. I should request fic about him...) I can't really participate in the SnK fandom though, since I'm trying to avoid manga spoilers. :3;;

SO YEAH. Parallels is starting! If you like Asian fandoms, check it out! It's an exchange that includes three types of fanworks: fics, fanart, and videos! So if you fic, art, or vid, this is a great exchange to check out. :)

(*nudge nudge* If you enjoy Legend of Sun Knight, consider participating in the exchange and making it one of your requests! I would love writing for you! XD;;;;) LSK hasn't been nominated yet, but I will definitely nominate it if no one else does before I do. =P

That aside, Jenny Flint has translated another two of my fics into Spanish~. This time, it's an Ace Attorney fic and a Death Note fic! \o/ Now that AA5 has been announced, I really should... post the AA fics I have in the works... before new canon completely trounces them... I haven't touched them in years though. :'D Perhaps I'll just post up what I have... just in my journal. Since they don't really end. OTL

Sólo se necesita un terremoto
Gumshoe piensa que Edgeworth no es tan frío como todos creen. El detective está determinado a hacer que Mr. Edgeworth sonría. is not as cold as people think he is. The detective is determined to make Mr. Edgeworth smile. Historia dulce.

Por Light
En donde Misa idea un plan que involucra unas llaves perdidas. Por el bien de Light, por supuesto.
Translations for both Bittersweet Sweetness and Behind Closed Doors are now up to date! I better get back to finishing Bittersweet

Dulzura Agridulce
En lugar de recibir un broche que lo disfrace de asesino, Sol recibe un dije que hace que intercambie cuerpos con Juicio. Ahora, Juicio debe descifrar el misterio tras el Caballero de la Muerte en lugar de Sol. El problema es que imitar la pobre esgrima de Sol no es nada fácil, ¿y quién podría decir lo que estaba haciendo Sol con el cuerpo de Juicio, mientras tanto?

A Puerta Cerrada
Cuando Sol pasó frente al cuarto de oración, escuchó unos sonidos muy... sospechosos. (Sol x Adair x Juicio)

Also, levy120 did a podfic of Enemy Territory~. Such a cute voice! :)

Enemy Territory
Nine year old Phoenix clutched his teacher's hand tightly as she led him down the hallway. Coming here was like entering enemy territory! Phoenix tries to make an ally out of his classmate Edgeworth. These are Phoenix's first impressions of Edgeworth.

I've been trying to write a Bakuman oneshot, but I'm getting really stuck with it even though it should just be a simple thing... I think I'll return to Bittersweet for now and poke at it later... (And of course when I get stuck with one fic, I get bombarded with ideas for new fics... OTL. Go away, plunnies, I can't take care of you right now!)
Hahaha, I'm quite happy I managed to make people laugh with Part 27 of Bittersweet Sweetness! Reactions all seem to be LOL'ing. Success! XD I've been hinting at this (I wonder if anyone guessed), but I'm thinking probably not very many guessed the particulars. Currently, I'm telling myself if I finish Bittersweet, then I can join new writing communities like [community profile] cottoncandy_bingo. Otherwise, I must stay away. Be good. Finish WIPs!! The problem with Bittersweet though, to me at least, is that I've always felt it lacked momentum. There also isn't much of a climax. (...if there is one, this would be it, and it's... hahahaha). Currently hoping to update Invincible next.


Watched the Gyakuten Saiban live action movie with my parents! \o\ I thought I wouldn't like Saitou Takumi as Mitsurugi (I didn't think he fit Edgeworth's image), but he was pretty cool after all. Narimiya Hiroki was quite cute as Naruhodou! I thought the movie worked pretty well as a mystery (that, and I've forgotten the details of the cases, so I was still kept in suspense, hahaha. Also, a few details are different.). Now my parents finally know what the games are about and what the character I cosplayed as (Maya) is like. My dad was asking me when she wears her waitress outfit. (Not in this movie, since that wasn't part of the first game!) :3

Can I have Ace Attorney 5 now? XD; (I will miss Apollo though. ;___;) I really hope Apollo is in AA5! And Klavier... I haven't a clue where AA5 will lead, since Phoenix was such a collected person in AA4... no longer a newbie...


I changed my header image! Wanted something with better scan quality. I cleaned up and pieced together my scans of this epic No Hero poster I have. So now my header features the four heroes from No Hero by Yu Wo~. I just love how epic the scene looks. :D we'll see how long this header satisfies me

Fanime

lucathia: (fishbones: ring)
Hey everyone! I'll be at Fanime this weekend cosplaying as Maya Fey. If you're going too, I hope to see you there. :D I don't have any plans just yet (just hoping I won't get bored). I finally got myself a smartphone, so feel free to tweet me to get into contact with me, or call/send me a text. If you also have a smartphone, I'm using WhatsApp, so you can text me with that too. (Free texting!) It seems to be a fairly cool app. I recommend it if you don't have a texting plan. :3

To everyone else, I'll still be around, though probably even more unresponsive than usual.

Despite Fanime being tomorrow (Day 0 started today even), I'm still not done with my cosplay. :'( I finished the outside purple jacket thing, but the inside I'm still in the process of sewing. I'm just about done with the bow, but I still need to thread her necklace... I really should have started earlier than this week! I have work tomorrow, so I won't get to the convention until the afternoon. Probably leaving early since I know I'll still be tired from work too.

...gotta rush out of the house now to buy some last minute supplies. Just realized I don't have hooks for my bow, ahhhh.

Went to Kinokuniya today and picked up volume 09 of the Tenipuri Kanzenban s2. Yagyuu and Niou on the cover. <3333 My store never had this in stock! Or if they did, they sold out, so I had to special order it. =/ I ended up getting v10 before I got volume 9. The three page comic at the end of volume 9 is a continuation of the beetle match between Atobe and Shiraishi, haha. Yagyuu in casual clothes on the inside~ ♥ This volume is so worth it.

I also picked up
-Ouji to Majou to Himegimi to v1 (there are more volumes out, but I wanted to see if I liked this series. It's about a prince who's reincarnated as a girl, and a bunch of princesses who are reincarnated as guys. They were all cursed by a witch)
-Otomen v14
-Yukarism v1-2 (also about reincarnation. girl reincarnated as a guy XD;; )
-Shiawase Shokutaku (a collection of short manga by Minami Maki who draws Seiyuu Ka + Special A)
-Magic Kaito special edition volume 4 (Whoot, looks like there'll also be a volume 5 of Magic Kaito!)
-Gyakuten Kenji artbook (finally I get to see what Ema Skye's shoes look like! =P I so needed this when I was cosplaying her)

Usotsuki Lily v6 should be out, but my store doesn't have it in stock. =/ A good chunk of what I buy lately... are genderbenders.
Natsume Yuujinchou San
I have fallen so behind with anime watching that I haven't been watching anything lately. I've tried to keep up with Natsume, but I fell behind with that too! I played catch up this week though, and now I'm just two episodes behind. The episodes quite relax me.


Matobe Matoba! Voiced by Suwabe Junichi, who voices Atobe from Prince of Tennis. Because of this, I keep typing Matoba's name as Matobe, haha... this is the Atobe syndrome. I read a little of the manga but didn't keep up with it. Nice to see this arc animated!

Taki pic~ )

The World God Only Knows OVA
A one episode OVA came out for Kami Nomi! Was great seeing Keima in action again, though this episode was merely a bridge to something more. It sure hints at a lot of things though.

some pics )

New games announced!
So recently, I've heard that Fire Emblem is coming out with a new game on the 3DS (now I really need to get a 3DS sometime, huh? Especially since it now seems very likely that the Professor Layton vs Gyakuten Saiban game is going to be released in English too. But 3D is lost on me since I like it best when I turn the 3D all the way down).

Just yesterday, there was also news that there'll be a new Suikoden game on the PSP. This made me very happy since I heard that the Suikoden team had been disbanded. While this isn't a continuation of the main storyline, I'm just happy that the series is continuing. I enjoyed Tierkreis. Hopefully I'll enjoy the new game too.

Listing out all my possible prompts for [community profile] no_true_pair and narrowing them down later. :3 This will be fun! Some match-ups are more plausible than others while some are just crack. XD; My comments are in parentheses. Posting starts October. I hope my muse will give me some short oneshots. Not sure if I'll actually get anything written, but I gave each one some passing thought. Was fun just to think about the prompts even if I don't end up writing them.

Fic commentary of All it Takes is an Earthquake for [livejournal.com profile] seta_suzume. Thanks for the fun meme!

If anyone wants to toss another fic of mine for me to blab about, feel free to do that here. :D

Read more... )

There is totally a story behind this. XD


*resurfaces* I holed myself away to work on cosplay and have only been commenting here and there and trying to tend to TCG duties. ([livejournal.com profile] darkicedragon, I'm so going to comment on like, a million of your posts after this weekend). Conventions and cosplay are totally the reason why my summer output of fanfic and writing is so dismal. :'D It happens every year!

I have not finished my cosplay. Will be working on it later still...like, hours before the convention. I haven't even finished my first outfit and am considering starting on the 2nd. I should probably just try to put the finishing touches on the first one. >__>

Maya Fey cosplay progress )

Anyway, I'm still working on my cosplay and will be gone all weekend for Fanime! If you're going to Fanime, drop me a line! Hope to see you around! I'll be going to the MusicFest for sure (don't want to miss FLOW or Matsushita Yuya). I don't have other big plans yet. Possibly Ace Attorney gathering on Friday, but I'm not very pleased with my cosplay. :')

Movie news: Watched Thor and a prescreening of Kung Fu Panda 2! Now I am...devouring fics about Loki. XD; Kung Fu Panda 2 was very fun with lots of action and just the right dash of touching. :)

2010 in fic

Jan. 1st, 2011 09:56 pm
lucathia: (Default)
Ahaha, my paid account expired while I wrote this.

My year-in-fic! Like every year, I ended up writing a lot less than I'd have liked. I only managed one of my writing resolutions I made for 2010, and that was writing for [livejournal.com profile] yuletide. I also realized a few things about my writing (or more like, was reminded of a few things...), and the number one thing is...

- I cannot write without deadlines. The things I wrote this year were almost all for fic exchanges, or they had self-imposed deadlines. (And then there was NaNo with one of the toughest deadlines!)

Maybe I should set more self-imposed deadlines for myself.

fics in chronological order )

actual fic meme, this is probably more interesting than my rambling above )
My f-list has exploded with this news. Official site & trailer. I'll be keeping an eye on this and will probably try playing Professor Layton sometime. I usually never buy consoles right when they come out, but 3DS is looking alluring now...ahhhh, I wonder when I'll get to play this.


I very much LOVE animated Maya. So cute!

more obnoxious animated gifs )
one small pic! )

- I still haven't made a purple vest yet, so I grabbed a random vest of mine. This vest makes me look Western (is what my dad said, haha).
- I grabbed my blue tie for Tadase because the tie I bought was too huge for me. I need to resize the pink tie I bought and paint horizontal orange stripes on it.
- My sunglasses aren't pink. ): What to do?
- My pink dress shirt is way too tight for me. :'D I need to buy a new one. OTL.
- My socks were way too tight at the top, so I took the top part off...now it keeps falling. XD; My thighs are pretty fat compared to the rest of my leg though...I should do thigh exercises.
- I still need to make her purse...
- I might need to buy brown boots, but I'll probably just go with my brown shoes for comfort. It's hard to tell what her shoes should look like from the game art.

Hm, still a long list of things to do. :3 But the above pic is pretty much how I'll look like at Fanime and AX, though I'll probably be wearing slightly different socks each day. :) It's too bad my other socks aren't as long, but it's better to have fresh socks each day!
Because I am seriously considering starting a multi-fandom character TCG now that both [livejournal.com profile] anime_lj_tcg and [livejournal.com profile] brotcg have closed and I'm feeling the hole they left. Divinity is still on hiatus too. I love [livejournal.com profile] twistserve_tcg (and I'll continue running it as long as I can) but I like collecting other characters too. :'D

I would not be as involved with this as I am with Twist Serve because there's no way I can put in as much effort into both. But...if someone out there would like to co-run something like this, give me a shout? Or have members who used to be part of [livejournal.com profile] anime_lj_tcg started something already? I would totally be fine as just a member. Less effort. XD I'll offer webspace to host cards because having cards spread over several photobucket accounts is no fun!

one possible template:


variations:


I need to convince myself not to do this. XD I should concentrate on my other interests. Most likely nothing will come out of this after I think about it some more.


Oh, and my Ema Skye pins came last week. :D I did my own designs and sent them somewhere to have them made. I don't know what the color the smaller ones should be since the pic of Ema's bag from AAI is so small, but they looked lavender-ish to me. (Too bad the borders turned out so thin) I have her vest, tie, and watch left, and then I'm done with her outfit. Should be done in time for Fanime.

AAI!

Finished playing Edgeworth's game today. :D Heh, I finished the game around the same date as when the game takes place (minus the year). This game drops a lot of references to previous games. I think I would like this game less if I weren't already an AA fan...I wonder what newcomers to the series make of this game.

long rambling~ )
[livejournal.com profile] orechibisama drew me a really cute Yagyuu. *points to icon* Thank you so much! :D HE'S ADORABLE. Have a fishbone on a platter, everyone~

TCG
Today, the first TCG I ever joined, [livejournal.com profile] anime_lj_tcg, sadly closed. It's the TCG that got me into TCGs. I joined in 2007. I've never quit a TCG (and always stick with them...until they end up closing). I guess I'm a...dedicated person, or maybe just someone who doesn't know when to quit.

This TCG had quite a long run and ended up with over...I don't know how many decks. Countless. There were already over 1000 decks back in 2008. I don't know what the end number was. Although updates were sporadic, each update had like, over 100 decks added each time. I had lots of fun there! I'll miss it. ;___;

Dissidia
I've been playing this game on my bonus days. XD; I only maxed out one character...the Onion Knight, haha. I like his combos. I can't beat the last extra chapter though. >__> My skills suck. I finally tried out the online battle with my brother. It was quite fun (and kind of reminded me of Pokemon battles). I finally got to use some of the enemy characters that I haven't had the chance to use in the storyline chapters. I'm currently using Kuja because I like how he glides. It was funny...my brother used Terra, who kept saying, "Get away!" and then my Kuja just so coincidentally said "You can't get away!" ROFL! I feel like I'm pretty much done with the game. There are too many extras for me. XD; I'm not much of a grinder either.

Ace Attorney Investigations
I've been playing the Japanese version forever and only got up to Case 4 before the English version came out. Well, now I passed where I was in the Japanese version. I'm loving the game a lot. There are so many quotable parts! I will be super busy with stuff around Fanime time this year, but there's a character in here who I can cosplay by scavenging for her clothing, so that's what I'll be doing! :D It'll be a fun and comfortable cosplay. <3 I already bought her pink hat.
Title: Famous Defense Attorney
Fandom: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
Words: ~1100
Summary: "My name is Phoenix Wright, and I think I have memory problems."
Notes: My first finished piece for the Phoenix Wright kink meme, only because I managed to keep this one short. Rated PG like nearly all my fics. I wrote this on a whim around 2 weeks ago when the first line came to me. This one's a fusion between Detective Conan and Phoenix Wright, with Phoenix Wright characters in similar roles as the ones found in DC. This is more meant for PW fans. No knowledge of Detective Conan is necessary, but if you do know the series, this piece would be more amusing.

I spent the most money on doujinshi while in Japan. They really added up. I didn't have a single doujinshi before this. Now my collection has...exploded. They're still spread over my floor. My relatives were quite curious about what they were, so I found myself explaining about Comiket and doujinshi and all that. They were impressed with the whole notion (especially self printing). Good thing all of my doujinshi are quite safe for everyone. XD;; Some of these were bought at Comiket. Some were at used book shops.
