Four things! :D

♥ Looks like author names have now been revealed! Here's the fic I wrote. I hesitated over offering Kuroko no Basket, and of course that was the fandom I matched on. XD; Will be posting this here too!

Ten minutes is all I ask for (3901 words) by faviconlucathia

fic commentary )

♥ The author of my giftfic You and I, are alike but different and was [livejournal.com profile] qem_chibati like I had thought. XD; You had me guessing for a bit! Sneaky, sneaky Qem! Thank you for the fic. I wish I could snuggle with it. ♥

♥ Bwahaha, I managed to identify all of [personal profile] darkicedragon's fics! I was pretty sure after reading the fics. XD

♥ Some recs! \o/

Liability (2519 words) by faviconKantayra
Fandom: Nabari no Ou
Relationships: Meguro Gau/Shimizu Raikou
Summary: In the world of Nabari, Gau was a liability. Fortunately, that was exactly what Raikou needed.

See With my Own Eyes (5769 words) by faviconDarkicedragon
Fandom: +Anima
Characters: Cooro, Blanca (+Anima)
Summary: Blanca had been inside the still room for so long, where there had been nothing but darkness until Aaron, and eventually Fly, had come, and it used to be enough. But it wasn’t now, not when she knew it was just a part of what was outside the room, what she could possibly see for herself.

Aftermath (1180 words) by faviconDarkicedragon
Fandom: +Anima
Characters: Nana (+Anima), Husky (Myrrha), Cooro
Summary: Nana wants to see Cooro’s smile again.

Habit (2768 words) by faviconDarkicedragon
Fandom: Yoroshiku Master
Characters: Rihito (Yoroshiku Master), Tateyama Daisuke, Sagara Kurumi, Kaito (Yoroshiku Master)
Summary: At a young age, Rihito knew what he had to do to avoid meeting his santa.

Allegro ma non troppo (2550 words) by faviconGramarye
Fandom: Eve no Jikan | Time of Eve
Characters: Sakisaka Rikuo, Sammy (Eve no Jikan), Chie (Eve no Jikan)
Summary: Even if Rikuo still can't fully bring himself to enjoy playing the piano as he once did, there's nothing to stop him from showing someone else how to find enjoyment in playing. (It helps to start at the very beginning.)

Secondary Qualities (1680 words) by faviconjan
Fandom: Eve no Jikan
Characters: Sakisaka Rikuo, Nagi (Eve no Jikan), Sammy (Eve no Jikan), Masaki Masakazu
Eeeeee, much belated flailing, but Tsukuba Sakura has a new oneshot in Shiro LaLa released on 2011.11.10. Called Sabaki no Mon (Gate of Judgment), I think? This makes me very happy. It looks like she drew another oneshot earlier in the year that I haven't read either called Sono Te wa Atatakai.

I hope Yoroshiku Master gets continued one day... or that she starts a new serialization. I've bought everything of hers I could get my hands on. Including reprints.

Shiro LaLa looks very relevant to my interests. Especially since it's a magazine full of oneshots from mangaka that I like! Akizuki Sorata also has a oneshot in it. I love her art. (I still need to read the latest volume for Akagami no Shirayuki Hime!)

Yuletide-wise, I'm loading up my tablet with my source so I can review it over the next few days when I'm not home because of family and other stuff. ;) (NaNo writing... that's going to be a little harder to do on a tablet...)

2010 in fic

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 )

Yuletide!

[livejournal.com profile] yuletide author names have been revealed! Thank you Esmenet for the beautiful Mekakushi no Kuni fic. When I went through the prompts list to find a prompt to write a treat for during Madness, I came upon your letter with your Mekakushi no Kuni prompt and thought, huh, what if you were my writer? And you were, wow!

Thank you [livejournal.com profile] darkicedragon for all the treats! I knew it was you. XD Noblesse! Tegami Bachi! I'm so happy you wrote Noblesse. :) Tegami Bachi was sure unexpected. ;D

I wrote three fics (1 more than for all my previous Yuletides, whoot!) I... already babbled about them when I reposted them here.

Into the Light (Penguin Revolution future fic, Yukari, 5038 words) - for [livejournal.com profile] bookchan
AO3 | LJ

Santa Said Come (Yoroshiku Master, Rihito, 2866 words) - for [livejournal.com profile] cairnsy
AO3 | LJ

Stuck on a Carpet (1/2 Prince, Yang Ming/Lolidragon, 4140 words) - for [livejournal.com profile] darkicedragon
AO3 | LJ

I managed to write 12k words in one week. It's like NaNo all over again! *flails* Yes, one week, because I didn't start until very near the deadline. It was one week of crazy writing! After NaNo, 1000 words has become so easy, except nothing happens for me in 1k words. Which then meant the fics got longer, and longer, and longer... when I was reading other people's Yuletide fics, I was very envious of how much they could say with much fewer words than me.

stuff that amused me this Yuletide )
Title: Santa Said Come
Fandom: Yoroshiku Master
Words: 2,866
Summary: On Halloween, Black Santa came to test them, but theirs was a different test. Rihito would have preferred Kaito's test much better than the one he ended up getting.
Notes: Pinch hit written for [livejournal.com profile] cairnsy for [livejournal.com profile] yuletide 2010! I was very glad I managed to snatch this pinch hit up since I'd been wanting to see Yoroshiku Master fic, especially fic on Rihito and Daisuke. Thankfully, Yoroshiku Master is only 3 volumes long, so reviewing the series was very quick and easy (and I was dearly hoping I could get out of my NaNo mindset. 2,866 words... I did a little better?). I'd forgotten a lot of details (like the fact that Black Santa came to visit Rihito and Daisuke on Halloween). I thought that'd be perfect to explore, especially since I didn't detail that in my own Yuletide letter. I didn't want my fic to end up too much like what I detailed myself, haha. Thank you [livejournal.com profile] cairnsy, for requesting (and suggesting?) Yoroshiku Master! Otherwise I wouldn't have been able to write this. :3

Santa Said Come )
oh man, I wrote up such a long and complicated post, but hopefully this is helpful...I didn't write one last year right away, or did I even write one? Guh, it was so hard to decide what to request! This is my letter for [livejournal.com profile] yuletide, an obscure fandom fic exchange. <3

Hi Yuletide Writer! This year, my requests are all manga/manhwa, and fairly obscure ones! The first two are both manga by Tsukuba Sakura. I really love her works and was very tempted to pick Penguin Revolution too. ♥ There were a lot of other fandoms on the list that I love too, but these ones are the ones that either I haven't seen much fanwork for, or the fanwork was mostly done by me...yeah, haha. So I'd love to see someone else's take on these! And if my assigned writer (or anyone else) checks out one of the other fandoms on this list, I'd be really happy to have gotten more people interested in the series. ^___^ I will try to provide info about how long the series are and how you might find them.

info on the series, my favorite characters, and what I'd like to see in each )

Apologies if this is too much to read through. |D What this all means is...

1. Yoroshiku Master -> Please give me more of Rihito. <3
2. Mekakushi no Kuni/Land of the Blindfolded - Please give me more of Namiki. <3
3. Oresama Sensei/Oresama Teacher - Please give me more of oblivious Hayasaka and crossdressing Mafuyu. <3
4. Noblesse - Please give me more of M-21. <3

Anything else is all optional (well, crossdressing Mafuyu is optional too, but I would adore it so much). I hope they are helpful and will jog your creativity rather than limit you. Thank you for writing for me!
