Here's my letter for

yuletide, just barely making signups! Some of these are requests I've made before but never matched on (or my writer decided to write a different series, haha). I would love to see fic for any of these series! :D (If you're curious what Yuletide is, hop on over here!)

This is meant to be extra info in case you are the type of writer who likes to know more or to explore fandoms you weren't matched on. Otherwise, feel free to disregard. I've included all the necessary info in my signups!

( The General Stuff )

( Fandom 1: Kara no Teikoku | The Empty Empire )

( Fandom 2: Chihayafuru )

( Fandom 3: Magic Kaito )

( Fandom 4: Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo )

( Fandom 5: The Legend of the Sun Knight )

( Fandom 6: Havemercy Series - Jaida Jones & Danielle Bennett )

Current Mood: tired

(this is my letter for

yuletide, a fic exchange for obscure fandoms)

Dear Yuletide Writer,

Thank you for writing for me! The following is meant to help you if you're the type who likes extra information, such as knowing more about my general likes regarding fic and what I like about the fandoms and characters I'm requesting. In case you feel adventurous, I've provided short blurbs about each of the series as well.

This letter is meant to be helpful. Optional details are optional, so please don't feel pressured by the letter! Take whatever is helpful from the letter and feel free to ignore the rest. I've requested my favorite character from each fandom, so as long as the fic is about that character, I'll be happy!

( My general likes )

( request 1: SKET Dance )

( request 2: Havemercy Series - Jaida Jones & Danielle Bennett )

( request 3: Fate/Zero )

( request 4: Basara (Anime & Manga) )

Current Mood: listless

Received Steelhands in the mail the day before yesterday and finished reading it yesterday. (Novels are just a perfect getaway). Spoilers under the LJ-cut with some of my babbling on the book.

(Steelhands is the fourth book in this series. Each book has four different narrators. I love alternating POVs... I think my own writing is quite... influenced by this.)

( spoilers )

Randomly, some Legend of Sun Knight stuff, not related to the above. CUTE KEYCHAINS (scroll down). I like this artist's chibi style. If I'd known about these earlier, I'd have bought all 12 knights *cough*. I think it's out of stock now though.

Also, new bundle edition for the manhua + novel side story. Sold this weekend in Taiwan. Side story focuses on Blaze! Since Blaze already had a sidestory about him and Sun when they were younger, this focuses on something different. The manhua included wraps up the content from the first novel. Cannot wait until content from the other novels get adapted. :3 There's some exciting stuff in the later novels. XD;

Yu Wo also posted a side story about Storm in her blog that was included with a previous bundle. This was way back in May and was what got me started writing Entries 4, but I still haven't finished writing that chapter, gosh. I think I'll reread the sidestory tomorrow and summarize it. Need to get a better feel for Storm. ^^;;

Lastly, dang, I did not think there was so much merchandise for 1/2 Prince and LSK.

So the deadline for

parallelsfic has passed, and I managed to write something in time, but the fic still needs a lot more work, so I'm taking the chance to continue editing the heck out of it before reveals. I better get this fic into better shape! There are a few people who don't have stories yet who are in need of pinch hitters. You can see the pinch hits here. I believe you can offer to pinch hit even if you haven't signed up. You just need an Archive of Our Own account to post!

I haven't managed to finish writing any new fic since May, so I'm glad this got me to write something.

I'm also hoping to participate in

springkink! Prompt gathering closes on August 5th. I tossed in a ton of prompts... that I think I would even like to write myself, since I started getting ideas as I was brainstorming the prompts. When the prompt list goes up, I hope some of the prompts I tossed in will be claimed, and I hope I'll find stuff that I'll want to claim (and think that I'd finish in time!).

blind_go round 12 is also starting! Round 12 focuses on the new wave. Sign-ups close August 30, fics are due September 19. As I haven't managed to finish writing any Hikago fic since round 3, I'll have to sit this out again, but I'm happy to see the community still going strong. ^____^

When my internet wasn't working at the end of July, and then LJ stopped working, I actually started jotting down fic tidbits in a composition book (since they were on sale). I do all my writing on the computer, but there is something about writing with pen that makes the experience different. I wonder if this will get me to write more. :3 (Off the top of my head, I jotted down a list of incomplete fics I still need to complete... the list is quite scary. T____T; I mean, there are fics I thought I'd be able to finish writing within a week, and yet I've let the fics sit for a year already.)

August 2! 82! Yagyuu/Niou day. Steelhands was released today! *dances* I completely forgot about the release date though, so now I'll have to wait for the book to be shipped to me.

Current Mood: complacent

My copy of Dragon Soul came yesterday, along with some other stuff I ordered (sock garters for my cosplay and a cute Locke, Celes, and Terra from this person). I ordered the book on the 9th because I totally forgot about the release date until I saw the exited, flailing posts in

thremedon about it...even though I had been anticipating the book all year. I couldn't believe how fast shipping was when I chose super saver shipping. It only took two days!

I immediately began to read and would have continued reading if I hadn't had to visit relatives. When I came back, I picked up where I left off and read until 6 AM. I was going to make some post saying how I was going to drop off the internet for the weekend to read, but I already finished the book.

I was grinning almost throughout the whole novel. I love Thom so much. ♥ In the first novel, Havemercy, I could not stop myself from likening Thom and Rook to Yagyuu and Niou, hahaha. (I must have read one too many fic and doujinshi where Yagyuu and Niou are in such situations where Yagyuu, the more scholarly one, tries to figure Niou out, where Niou is quite the charismatic bastard). It was like I had found a book version of Yagyuu. My impression of Thom in this book is much different though, but OMG, how I adored him.

For those of you who haven't read Havemercy before, there are three books in the universe so far. I always mention that there are metal dragons and gay magicians when I introduce the book. XD; The characters' voices are captivating and so very vivid. Each novel has four main protagonists through which we experience the story. Their knowledge of happenings is limited, which can be pretty fascinating when things come together. It's like fitting the pieces of a puzzle together. :3 The plot isn't the best paced, but I'm really there for the characters and the universe they live in.

( more spoilerish flailing )

Now I'm dying for more of Thom. :'D I should try my hand at writing him.

Current Mood: giggly
