Last post of 2013. MEME TIEM.

Dec 30, 2013 21:57

So I tried. And I failed, magnificently. The plan was to post the last one for this year yesterday.

I do owe Tennen birthday fic, hah, time wasn't permitting at all! I didn't write many fics but it's been 60K+ nonetheless. The ability of being succinct has vanished successfully. And that word count was only for the ones posted here. /eye rolling. Housekeeping time! The usual meme, I've been trying to write this since the beginning of December, while in transit, during worktrip, on my phone, it doesn't feel like coherent enough but there you go.

Resolution for next year: moving to ao3. I should really start on that first chance. :)

My favourite fic this year (of my own): Twelve Summers Or What You Will. It's an Ohmiya magical AU alskdjaslkdjas! This was a huge fun (and a huge headache at the same time). I mean, it's Ohmiya in the first place although I had people said that it's more a Matsumiya one. *gigglessss. Plus Sho is a girl fae with twirly skirts and all; happiness all around! This also was one of those fics where I wrote things that I haven't even considered to write before; being nervous all around and unsure of how it's going to end up. It turns out okay. That's enough for me.
Runner up: (if I can say it's a tie, it should be a tie). Every Every Every Turn was as much as a terrible rip off title from Kitto Daijoubu, but I'm having fun with Luna because, if there's a cat it should be black with an attitude.

Luna stole the lime
light as much as Sho's cheesy
fail haikus went.

LMAOOOO! The nerdery that is haikus! I'm having too much fun on it, seriously!

My best fic this year: I guess it has to be Earthling, You Too Burn So Pretty. A huge monster fic, involving too many people ahhhhh, I still can't handle it right now. I had the pleasure (and awe) of seeing the word count doubled in the course of a week (of extension deadline, I'm terrible like that okay). Repeatedly called myself insane during that last week of summer, it was one hell of experience. And blame this fic, I don't think I'll have the energy to write crossover fic more than one per year! :D
Runner-up: Well, coming from the right, swerve and throwing a curve ball, it's Companionable Cushion. I just love how this turned out. I don't really have a chance (or single-minded focus) when it comes to write other than bias but it was nice to do another angle. Gen and all aside, i should really explore other pairings.

Most fun fic: More Glimpses of Brief Literary Skits (A Remix). OH THE LITERARY SHITS I HAVE TO GO THROUGH FOR THIS LMAO! The original was fun and it was an lovely experience to get myself into this universe. At the end, I managed to churn few things from different angle and I'm extremely happy with it, regardless.
Runner-up: Quartet Plus Another One! Being a piece where I practice to write more sensual then sexual bits, I'm glad I tried this and set a harsh deadline. Going for a hair cut is even more fun right now.

Most sexy fic: Aside from those NC-17 attempts, I am firm in saying that Quartet Plus Another One was the sexiest. It was an attempt on not even more skin than necessary and still need to be sexy. Barber Jun is something that I will love forever and ever. <3!
Runner-up: Don't really have any. I haven't posted any of my porn anyway. *confession time* It was awkward at first but the more you practiced you're getting a hang of it. What? I'm talking about writing porn. LOL. So, during November, I side-wrote loads, like loads, of porny thing. It's quite embarrassing. I'll post them some day. I really should. :D

Most unintentionally *telling* fic: Somehow the answer is Every Every Every Turn. I'm not going to specifically point on specific part but let's not be specific. I wanted to say it's so much deeper than it appeared, but let's not ruin the fun.

"Holy crap, that's *wrong*, even for you" fic: Mhmm. Twelve Summers Or What You Will? Let's just say, I wrote Sho as a girl fae, who squeals on nail polish and twirls on hisher summerdress. Just because it's 'wrong' it didn't mean that it wasn't fun.

There's a bit part about boobs actually, I don't think I managed to sneak it into the fic. (yeah, this meme becomes a place to put up several un-posted things). Well, here you go.

[Nino's hands slide down the flat chest, he moans over loss.

Ohno chuckles breathlessly. "Ah, sorry, boobs weren't in the menu today."

"Oh shut up," Nino manages to let out another low moan as he thrusts his hip up and meet Ohno's.]

I was talking about the holy crap fic, right? Right. :D

Hardest fic to write: Earthling, You Too Burn So Pretty. If there weren't for lovely people out there, this would never ever see the light of day! The research took like eighty percent of my time and at the end, I settled with things. This also received major, like terribly major, beta notes. For once I wanted so many things to be included and managed to include so many (other unrelated) things at the end. I was totally excited of the challenge but it wouldn't be a challenge if it's easy.
Runner up: My Nano mess. I know it's not even worth to be put up here yet, I haven't even touched it since November, but just in case I forget and need to be reminded, here, some mementos. :)

Worst fic: I'm not at all satisfied with Hurly Burly Party (What's Your Favorite Flavor?). Perfume deserves badass roles and this was done in a rush. Just have to make it better then.
Runner up: Perhaps it's just me or it was something else that's been bothering me but Save The Last Dance for Me was so much fun to write but didn't really end up satisfying. It's just very complicated and heavy somehow, but what else is new. I'm not like that, okay.

Easiest fic to write: I have mostly forgotten how it ended up this way but What's For Dinner Tonight? has made me craving for most of the food featured and from then on, since Sho/food is awesome and all, it was history.
Runner-up: I wrote Hurly Burly Party (What's Your Favorite Flavor?) while writing other things, no? I kind of hate how it was quite easy to write porn. :D I have big plans. Usually when I have big plans, I spent a lot of time trying to to make things happen. *roll eyes. Anyway, there's more and more of this, even if it's not going to be easy now. :D

Fic I'd like to revise: I feel like something is terrible off with Where were We? Perhaps it's too short, too confusing. I was experimenting with non-linearity, something that I still want to work with, but it didn't come out the way I wanted. I learned to let things go so there goes some NC-17. XD
Runner-up: Don't really have any. I don't write that many fics this year, that many short ones. Lol. I don't even reread my long ones just because it's long, but well, it's hard enough to get into writing sometimes.

Fic I didn't write but will at some point, I swear:
1) Sakumoto porn fest, just because I already started and it's still chunks of messy scribble, but I'll get there;
2) Something about 消火器リサイクル推進センター. Yes. And Aimiya just because I cannot unsee it now;
3) There's this filed named AU Lost and Found in my wip folder, just saying;
4) I'm going to ask for a specific someone (you, yes you!) to let me borrow her idea of postmen Arashi. LOL!;
5) There were 'Ara-six' fic ideas during the summer, where did they go?

Let's stop at this before I dig my own grave deeper and deeper by the minute. :)

First fic you wrote this year:
Save The Last Dance for Me (with the Ver. 2.0 on the repost entry) was the actual first. Young Sakumoto being Johnny's Jr. was something that I had wanted to write since last year's self-exchange and finally I got an excuse to write this. It didn't come up the way I planned it to be but at the end, I wrote version 2.0 just for Nino and there's that.
Last fic you wrote this year: The order is a bit skewed but the last one was Hurly Burly Party (What's Your Favorite Flavor?). It was posted earlier because the other two were not revealed yet.

Other Notes:
※ NaNoWriMo! I was completely insane and it was glorious! IT WAS FRICKIN' GLORIOUS! This ended up as one thing that is going to explode into a huge ball of fic next year, the year Arashi turns 15. So, yeah I wrote a lot of terrible prose but it got the words down and I have my first draft right now. I had to contain the excitement so I didn't start talking about it here because I can't talk about it yet, it's not even done. I keep on saying it's terrible prose and all, and yes, it is terrible prose. I reread it few days ago--after gladly shoving it under my wip folder early December, and laskdjalskd, it's going to require a lot of everything. I'm just going to take my time then.
※ It has been exchanges lately, and I am writing longer fics. I miss writing short ones. Sometimes all ideas turned to be so complicated. I can't even work on something so simple, I hate it. So, perhaps trying to be more flexible. Yeah, that's probably the word.
※ rainbowfilling! *facepalm* It turns out to be one of the biggest fails this year. AGAIN. I really need to nudge myself pretty hard next time. I had bits and pieces. All I have to do is finish them, why it is so hard to do! /not happy with myself.
※ And since I've been writing so many things that are not in English, my wording are funny lately--brainwave's all 混ぜちゃって. Can't you tell? It had been bugging me. Groove, I just need to get back in the groove, I just.
※ Also, read the perfume epic fic, just read it. If I need to make one rec this year, it's going to THISSSSSSSSSS <3! :D What are you waiting for!
※ Last but not least, I am extremely grateful to many people this year, those who have been very kind, were there when I need them, were there on their side of the world to share the headache and happiness. You guys, you know who you are, I love you! Please don't get tired of this ditzy girl here. :D

.

So, all this rambling concludes 2013. Wishing you all Happy New Year ♥! 良いお年を!
