Dear Ein,
I am not happy with you. You do not go discarding the frantic work of a NaNoWriMo contestant two hours before the deadline, thank-you-very-much! But I still made it, so screw you. Yeah, I know I needed to edit that stuff anyways.
- Reili
I also won best article in this issue of the school newspaper with a last-minute article pulled together in under thirty minutes. I think NaNoWriMo has done me lots of good at fast writing. And so I'm making this random post. About Christmas gifts. ^_^U
Step One: Make a post to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10 GEEKY holiday wishes; the wishes can be anything at all, from simple ("I want a fanfic!") to medium ("I want toys!") to really big. The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want. If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or the MaccaBee, or your secret special friend) could get in touch with you. Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ so that the holiday joy will spread.
Step Two: Surf around your friendslist (or friendsfriends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part: If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not; it's your call! There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just... Wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special...

(in no particular order, except maybe subconcious)
1. Reili wants a Soom Kanoa (with face-up and default outfit). And she doesn't even hope to get this, but she wants one.
2. If you have any Christmas music in Japanese or some non-English language... If you could pass it along? That would be really nice. It could be in some obscure Afican dialect and I'll still love it. I kinda just like Christmas music.
3. Two words: Yusuke/Kurama. Which, if you didn't know, is my OTP (of OTP-ness). I just want to see more of it.
4. If anyone has really nice pictures of the Para(dise)Kiss final dress (y'know, the one in the very last episode...), I'd really love to see/obtain them. Partially because I want to make icons, and partially because I would one day like to attempt it as a costume. I am well aware that this is crazy, but I am not quite sane in the first place.
5. This, this, or this. Because, y'know, a yaoi fangirl can do no more than proudly display her tastes across her chest. Where boys are likely to notice, you see. =3
6. ... -big grin- Love to you forever if you can tell me five good reasons why I shouldn't want these to take to school and read. Yes, to school. XD Yeah, Ai no Kusabi = <3 Haha, so this wish is really just asking for manga. Manga = <3!
7. Oh! Y'know what? I need new characters to play with until next November. -cough- Because Megan is about to eat my brains out if I can't get her a few new boytoys. This is actually what I'm getting from my best friend. Pretty, shiney new characters. I know this is sort of a strange request... ^_^U
8. ... I'm on, like, a Roxas/Riku high right now. Fic recs falling under that category (and unlike most fangirls... I rather don't care about what order they're paired in) would be greatly appreciated.
9. This seems like a standard on all the wish lists I've seen so far, but... Art of these characters would be appreciated. It makes me feel emo that I cannot draw to save my life.
10. Pirates. Besides anime, my only tie to the "real" world are pirates. Anything pirates. XD I think you could just write bad free-verse poetry about pirates and I'd be overjoyed. Is that sad?
----
Yeah, I really don't expect anything. But you should be because Fuyu Yasumi (Winter Break) starts soon. As in after next week I won't have school until the 8th of January. I <3 LAUSD schools. ^_^
List of things that should be coming:
- New textures
- New icons (Christmas themed, of course)
- Possibly a Christmas mix
- Possibly icons tutorials. If I ever finish them.
- A tutorial about hairstyles. Just wait, you'll see.
Oh yeah. Anyone attending Anime LA? 'cause I should be there. Probably not in costume, but I'll be there. XD
