I don't care who answers, or if no one does, or what.  The question (and yes, I know it's ambiguous) is this ( Read more... )

Okay, I haven't read the Death Note manga, and I've only seen the first dvd of the anime, but I have been reading some of the fanfiction - or more accurately, crossover fanfiction - and something is bugging me.

This thirteen-day rule, where it says "If a person does not write a name in the Death Note within thirteen days of writing the previous name ( Read more... )

So, I was re-reading a Harry Potter fic today.  A crossover one.  Where Harry opens the Lament Configuration.  He doesn't get dragged off, but manages to get Voldemort dragged away, as well as... well, it's on fanfiction.net, called 'Evil Be Thou My Good'.  I reccommend it as a good read.  It's not listed as a crossover, but really it is.

Here's a mind-bender for all my fellow fan-fic writers: what if Count D set up his pet shop in Gotham?

My mind is a scary place for me to be sometimes. *nodnod*

Here.

Today from ebay I got a parcel that contained a Vincent, a Yuffie, a Sephiroth, a RedXIII/Nanaki, and a Cait Sith.  It took roughly a month to get here from (according to the box) Newark CA in USA by priority mail.  So, this has me thinking that it's time I parcel up the two packages I have for peeps in the USA so that they arrive by Christmas ( Read more... )

I accidentally reached an epiphany last night while letting my mind wander before sleep.

I am not a Wonderland lobster, and I fail at maps.  Why?  Because no lobster would go anywhere without a popoise (a play on purpose), and I can't seem to charter a plot.
