"Eek! Ryou's wearing white after Labor Day!"
...I never understood that superstition.
I decided to enter a RxI AU fanfic competition after one of the gals from FF.NET PMed me to tell me about it. I wasn't going to enter, and then I thought it might do me some good to enter something, and then I came up with a [debatably] really good idea. Unfortunately, the way I set it up, the story is a little cramped, and there's still no fluff halfway through it. ^^; I'm so awful... I even -like- fluff, but yanno, in fanfics some of the fluff ends up being generic and it all sounds the same. I know a lot of fanfics by new authors tend to have the same fluff when they read the same other fanfics by older authors. Not saying anyone copies me in that department, but I do remember a few things that got absorbed into the Ryou-centric fanfic community - mostly regarding his kitty side. XDD It's kind of funny and embarrassing at the same time.
Anyway, I will probably plug the fanfic when it gets finished. Feel free to read it if you're interested... it still has no fluff yet, so I'm iffy about forcing it in there at the end. I guess we'll see what happens. Anyway, it's similar to the original TMM universe, only Ryou enlists Ichigo's help to communicate with ghosts. [And yes, ghosts still scare the pee outta her.] Ryou's a scientist still, yeah, but he's researching urban myths like crop circles and ghosts, and other things that can't be explained. Why is he so set on having her track them down? Apparently he and his dad had a big fight before he was killed in an accident and Ryou is determined to let his dad's wandering spirit rest in peace. Yeah, I don't know either, but it was cool when it was in my head as a random idea. I blame Casper.
