Wednesday: The Eve of a Very Ninja-y Event
Today is Orochimaru's birthday.
ERR YEAH OKAY MOVING ON Today is also an incredibly important day... That's right, today is the deadline for the Underneath the Underneath Contest! For any stragglers, please submit your entry to nimblnymph by midnight tonight! What a seasonal deadline! (Halloween!) This is your FINAL REMINDER!
Okay, but we also have a TON of people to highlight today! I myself haven't had a chance to delve into it all yet (darn AP US History quizzes! *shakes fist*) but that's why we've got these nice consolidations, so that anyone like me who missed out on the week can find it all in one place!
Wow, that's enough rambling. First off we've got ultravilent bringing us some artwork! Check out those vibrant colors! We also have some fic from one of our newer members, starlightdawn . What a nice name! Anyway, she's got a fic called Rose Tinted that you can read here and here.
It looks like moldycookies has found herself a beta or three, but she's not getting out of a shout-out because she posted some KakaSaku fic! Check out The Peanut Gallery! Alternatively titled "advice from peanuts".
marybwolf has not one but two fics of the mature audiences variety. One is a belated but still worthy Shakespeare adaptation-- what was once Antony and Cleopatra is now Kakashi and Sakura! The other is called What is That? What is it, you wonder? Well you'll just have to click that link and find out, won't you? Just not at work, because these are NSFW.
katzenherrin has been going on a KakaSaku spree. Welcome her to the fold by investigating all she's brought for us. She likes to pull out double whammies of fic and matching picture. We've got Cherry Blossom Mask (NSFW picture and drabble), Flirting (drabble), and KakaSaku (picture and drabble)!
And to top it off we've got two updates of existing story. There's janually 's Pride and superduperotaku (J-pop Princess) has updated Stripped Bare! I haven't read Pride yet, but in securing the link to the chapter I saw that it is headed with a Timon quote (of the Lion King!), and you CANNOT get wrong with Disney's best sidekicks. As for the NSFW Stripped Bare, J-pop has posted what she promises to be the penultimate chapter! Eek!
Now, let's not forget this month's featured member: shippertrish ! She is a well-respected name on this community because she has contributed by writing, drawing, and reviewing! If you haven't gotten the memo that she is worth checking out, please take some time to sift through her many KakaSaku works!
*wipes sweat from brow* Wow, what a long list. But that's a good thing, because it means that our community and fandom are alive and well!
Now, to desperately think of a discussion topic! Nimbl had a great idea with the music last time. *snaps ruefully*
What sort of AU setting do you ever imagine KakaSaku in? AU can be tricky, but do you ever imagine Kakashi and Sakura in a western, or fighting robots, or investigating mysteries in Victorian England? Or if you haven't given it much thought, now that the question is posed, what sort of AU do you think could suit them well? Or do you have a hard time accepting them in any world but that which Kishimoto created? Share your out-of-this-world thoughts!
