wow almost missed posting this weeks word for kh_100. oops. i'm really not with it.

one week and two days till i'm on holiday!
quickie update that is actually comm promotion - [community profile] kh_100 is having its first past prompts round. there are fifty prompts to choose from...not to mention the hundred or so suggestions for the cliches prompts alone XD seriously how can you not want to do something with a list like this.

come write something! or come and read and comment on some of the things that have been written. you comment may encourage a drabble to become a fully fledge fic that consumes all!

oh and i write for the in-between team cos that's how i roll ;P
Prompt requests are open over at [livejournal.com profile] video_game_yaoi.

Of course I've request Legacy of Kain. I'm rather predictable like that. Especially when given only one submission choice. Really makes you think about what one single fandom you'd like to see something from. But considering the amount of old prompts on the free-for-all list and the once I have saved from way back in the day, it's all good. The choice wasn't all that hard either really considering I listen to the LoK voice sessions every other day. I've found them...soothing? *is weird* XD

But yes, come drop off a prompt, you don't have to write something if you don't want to or you could totally write your own prompt seeing as there's no guarantees it will be grabbed by someone. Hell I've been tempted to write mine the moment I thought of it. But I'd like to see what someone else would do with it too.

In other news I'm doing vague housework in the form of the washing machine is going :) I do have a few other things that I really should do today and I'll likely get to them once I post this.

Still trying to decide on which Suikoden girl cosplay to make. Too many characters that are shiny.

Probably should go for a walk too. Preferably before school lets out and before it decides it wants to rain.
Sitting here looking about the internets and thinking about how bored I am. This means one thing and one thing only:

IT IS TIME TO START WORKING ON COSPLAY!

Not tonight though because I have a lap full of warm kitteh and I don't want to disturb him in his apparently much needed lap lounging time. So I'll be watching anime shortly :)

I have the round table. And yes mum and I snicker each and every time we say the round table. We are easily amused ^^; But yes the table is here because it is taller and bigger than my table and in order to work on cosplay I need to be comfortable.

Am seriously considering dropping doing Psyche version Izaya. I have nothing for him yet, no fabric/patterns/wig/shoes/props whereas I have everything for Lucretia...well bar the wig and the book. I have feathers for the fan and all the fabric and footwear. Plus omg girl!cosplay XDD And with how many layers she has going on, it'll be a very good idea to get her started.

That means cosplays for this year would be Hibari, Hitsugaya and Lucretia. Good combo I'm thinking. Psyche can wait for another year.

Damn you cosplay! Why do you have to be so shiny! *eyes Ted and Chrodechild/Fredegund*

slow day is slow...or well nothing is happening online. plus i'm fighting to stay awake during work.

where is everyone?
hmmm wonder how much house work i can get done in 2 1/2 hours if i don't get distracted?

*puts music on and turns it up loud*

icon used for kalli's amusement.
-_- Bloody JWs just called in. I had to go put on a bra before I went out to talk to them. Nice-ish young lads. Making the rounds inviting people to the Passover. I think I kinda made them go huh? that I knew what was going on. If it had been adults they likely would have remembered me from years ago. The younger one asked me if I was religious and I told him I studied when I was younger. The other asked why not now and I said my interests are not compatible XD

Should have said I publish gay porn or something *evil grin*

Do need to phone I guess and tell them to put me onto the do not call list. I am seriously not interested.

Need to go vote today and do shitloads of housework. IT IS A CLEAR SUNNY DAY! Alas mum says it's supposed to be showers this afternoon so I'm madly washing towels now in the hope they'll dry a bit before it does come.

Oh and I need to go vote still.

Small drabbly piece written for the March prompt over at [livejournal.com profile] clicheclub

Title: OVERKILL
Cliche: rescuing a puppy/kitten/bunny/otherfluffything
Fandom: FFVII
Pairing: Cid/Vincent, Cloud
Rating: G
Count: 200
Contains: creature death by OVERKILL
Notes: I AM NOT SORRY THIS IS WHAT INSTANTLY CAME TO MIND FOR THIS PROMPT

OVERKILL )
Have just posted my first fic for the current round of [community profile] no_true_pair. Got definitely one more to go for the first week, likely two, possibly three. Shall see how I go.

Also [livejournal.com profile] video_game_yaoi is back up and running a Spring Clean round full of all the old unclaimed prompts. Come join in! I'm resisting the urge to look at prompts because I know I have enough I should be writing already for both this comm and for other current challenges that are running.

Gotta write a kh100 drabble yet too for this week. Will get to that eventually seeing as I did have two thoughts the other day. Which I've now forgotten ^^;

Was all set to open up the house and enjoy the lovely day outside. But it smells all smoky D: Why dammit! It's a nearly totally clear blue sky out there. Why does it have to smell smoky *cries*
So I folded laundry while playing on youtube was all the cutscenes from Soul Reaver 2.

Then I hit this: defiance opening complete with Simon sitting there doing the lines

Well we all know I was lost for the rest of the evening as watching Defiance stuff became a must. Kain! KAIN!!!!

I've had a thought of what if there was a writing challenge where lines were taken from a game and only that game, people not told what game it was, and then see where it took them. Because some of the lines in LoK are just AWESOME! HELL MOST IF NOT ALL THE DAMN LINES IN THE DAMN GAME ARE BLOODY AWESOME!

Legacy of Kain is just such a thing of beauty *drools all over the games*

I know Emerald would so recognize the LoK if I did this writing idea...just as Kalli would pic the SR lines out if they were used.

And now I'm off to bed. I wanna make icons and lust roll about in the awesome that is the LoK series. Every time I listen/was stuff from this series I want to write. But what I want to write is definitely one perhaps two LoK fics away from where I left things.

*sighs* Not enough hours in the day or free braincells anymore to indulge in the OMFG!SHINY!

Nite :3

I'm working towards starting some housework. Yeah not done anything as of yet due to mum distracting me.

Am also thinking perhaps pizza for dinner. Really not sure at all what I'm eating tonight. Is there a not eating option? >.>

Music...that's what I need to get on with it all.

In Suikoden III, has the shipwreck at Badehuc got a name?

Figured it would be fastest to ask *pokes flist*
been a while since I posted a batch so here we are...enjoy :D

Title: caring can keep you alive (Leon, Sora)
Author's Notes: prompt - Sora. now i'm curious - does a keyblade have a sharp edge or is it more a bludgeoning weapon *GRIN*

caring can keep you alive )

Title: sun-shiny days (Sora, Leon, Cloud (pre-Leon/Cloud if you squint real hard))
Author's Notes: prompt - mistaken identity. just imagine anyone else from the Islands to be off doing stuff not here :D do not want leon meeting selphie.

sun-shiny days )

Title: tools of the trade (Cid, Leon, Cloud)
Author's Notes: prompt - conventions. Cloud is such a smug bastard :D

Author notes: prompt - hidden talent

Title: when all is not what it seems (Kairi, Maleficient, Beast)
Author's Notes: prompt - alternate universe. think of this as in terms of Kairi swapping spots with Riku or something...which would mean that Riku's heart is with Sora :3

all is not what is seems )


So...I've had a few drinks :3 I'm possibly going to write some fic. No idea if what I write will make sense in the morning.

Also 4,444 posts on the last post. In honor of that, I will write 4 drabble requests. First come first served, provided it is something I write for. This is 4 total between both DW and LJ. Will try to get them done fairly quickly.

Also thank you everyone for input regarding the KH100 alternate universe prompt. What I ended up writing is the last one here :)

In other news, but still writing news, I popped in Suikoden III this afternoon for some Borus research for a 0TP fic and omg I'm going to have to restart the game because I don't know what happened or where I'm up to. This will not stop me from writing this fic. Hervey and Borus. 0TP FTW!!!
Just a little Cloud/Leon written for [livejournal.com profile] clicheclub. Which for some reason I can't actually post to said comm because the internet is being shit.

Boy I'm a slack one. Just getting around to this now ^^; Welcome [personal profile] ldybastet, [personal profile] shiki, [personal profile] vampire_scooby, [personal profile] zenelly who are newly arrived from the friending meme. Glad to have you aboard :3 Here's to lots of squee and good times.

However at the moment work is being evil and my brain is taken over by the need to read xmfc stuffs so no idea how much squee there will be on my end.

That said, here's a slightly updated oi! this is me and my interests :D Generally I poked at the pairs list a little to make it clearer.

Current flist should probably read through this too. I totally encourage discussion, preferably without pairing wars in which I'd rather agree to disagree *smiles* Also feel free to poke me about things I'm supposed to be writing. What I'm up to right now is re-reading the second half of Book of Love in anticipation of getting that last chapter done. I really am going to finish that series this year! IT WILL HAPPEN! nevermind how many years it's been waiting to be done Um for those who don't know...Book of Love, or BoL, is a series of fics of Irvine/Squall with a smattering of Seifer/Zell and Kiros/Laguna.

There are the rare het ships but it's a mood thing as I'm predominately a yaoi girl.

How do you generally participate in a fandom? Fic, squeeing, lurking, making cosplay
Do you have any of your own fandom/fanworks-related communities? Not communities but a out of date website that has most my fic.

Shows you like: Don't watch much tv but do like Miniscule when I remember it's on. TV is for gaming :D
Movies you like: Star Wars, Star Trek, XMFC, Iron Man, various other that I can't think of right now.
Books you like: Enjoyed reading lots of David Eddings when younger, partial to thoughts of corrupting Bevier (yes I have written ficlets for Eddings stuff >.>) and quite liked Caverns of Socrates by Dennis L McKiernan. I need to get back into reading books but fic on the internet is so very shiny. I'm on such a xmfc fic reading kick right now that shows no signs of slowing.
Musical artists you like: Linkin Park, Saliva, Hoobastank, Meatloaf, Melissa Etheridge, 30 Seconds to Mars...my playlist of late is usually various anime/game soundtracks or the Legacy of Kain voice sessions.
Other interests of yours: Do like cooking and sewing, don't like gardening. Love my furbaby! Shadow!kitteh.

Extra stuff to note: I am a visual person. Me seeing things is a good way to get my attention. Example - I avoided the KHR fandom for a couple of years. Then I saw an amv at Y-con 2010 and was hooked. The amv just made hit me right and I needed to see the series. I now cosplay and have written a little for it.

I travel...or did. Can't afford it too much anymore but I've been to the previous 7 of 8 Yaoi-cons and I recommend going if you can. So much fun to be had and good times with great friends. I'd like to go this year if I can afford it but if not then it'll have to be next year.

Long post is long. Now to go either read more BoL or xmfc stuff.
So Cydling posted a reminder that there's a [community profile] ffviii_100 for dw. Current prompt was past prompts 4. Um...I may have gone a little overboard >.> like I wrote 14. I WAS INSPIRED DAMMIT! And both Seifer and Squall were pointing out that I've been thinking about certain things lately but lacking motivation to write long fics for them so they'd be happy for me to do some of this for them.

So I did. And I have to say that writing these was not a bad way to end one year and start another. Not a bad way at all >3

Most of these drabbles are Seifer & Squall and a lot of them are violent or have implied violence. Those ones are either snipets working around Prove Me Wrong, that Seifer and Squall fic I wrote for [community profile] no_true_pair. Or they are possibly part of something I'm currently working on...aka the Laguna & Seifer one is making itself part of something I'm lazily working on now.

Damn muses finding ways to keep my attention on them, especially calling up old, old fic ideas and sneaking them into this set of mini-writing.

Yes, I am very happy with all these drabbles. Definitely that first one as it set the tone for everything Seifer and Squall.

Yes there will be more eventually. Who knows maybe even the whole fics rather than just drabbly things.

Enjoy!
