Wow! It's hard to believe that this fest is over. I am quite pleased with the entries we received and I hope everyone will take a moment to leave feedback for the hard-working participants of this exchange

Is there some kind of curse relating to rikkai-focused fic exchanges? The first time I ran rikkai_exchange was when I developed MY mysterious gastrointestinal woes... >_> OH SHIT.

Thank you so much for putting in the effort to run this, and I'm still so embarrassed at the trouble I caused you after instigating the whole thing! Erk. But we made it in the end? ♥

I strongly suspect that the fic for me was written by whisper132.

The art is pretty blindingly obvious, I reckon. If kedi_kedi didn't draw We Who Fight I will fall over in shock. aoiyuzu for A Pierce, meganezilla for Rise Like Lions... and, purely by elimination because the other artists I believe dropped, konkon_pinku for Yukimura's Present

Wooooooooooooooot it's finished already? :<

I thoroughly enjoyed this exchange, the best exchange XD, some really great things came out of it, I'm very happy I took part and that you made it happen ♥ So thank you so much!

As for guesses. Hmmm... I wont say the art ones cos they're a dead give aways. So fics, I have a few suspicions, some may elude me but ah well, that's the beauty of being a ninja in these types of exchanges |D

So my guesses are:

Souvenirs and Coffee Shops - crystalusagi
Shifter - reddwarfer
Closer to the Stars - giving_ground

Damn, that's actually very poor of me... :< I wish I knew more.

I still have the last fic to read but I don't think that should effect my guesses, so I'll just go ahead and read that...

Friday will be very interesting!

[crystalusagi]

XD I've no idea who wrote anything, except for the ones I already know. Damn.

But yeah, I'm pretty sure kedi_kedi drew We Who Fight.

[dshae47]

Okay, I'm going to risk being wrong for once and actually take part in this :D.

We Who Fight - kedi_kedi
Closer To The Stars - giving_ground
Rise Like Lions After A Slumber - meganezilla
A Piacere - aoiyuzu
Yukimura's Present - konkon_pinku

I have some less certain guesses but I want to do a little more research on what's been posted before I put them here! <3

[dshae47]

Ahaha. I'm not going to have enough time to do my research, so I'm going to throw out some random guesses and see if I'm lucky! xD

The Rain King - emmayori
Ace of Spades - whisper132
Alektra - justsonya
Shifter - quentelin
Souvenirs and Coffee Shops - yuki_scorpio. I really hope it's someone else so that I'll have someone new to stalk, but even though this fic is not written in British spelling I can't help but suspect her. Mainly because I loved this story. XD. CLEARLY, I'M NOT DETECTIVE MATERIAL~ haha.

[kedi_kedi]

But yuki_scorpio commented in Souvenirs and Coffee Shops so its most probably not hers XD LOL

[dshae47]

Yes, I thought so too!! But then again, she commented on every fic but yours, and yours doesn't sound like it was written by her... And Children of War has purple-haired Yagyuu, which she specifically listed as a squick when she signed up, so even though her comment was vague enough there, I'm not convinced. Well, I'm not convinced about this one either! But I did promise I'd venture a guess if no other fic made me change my mind, and... none did xD;.

[yuki_scorpio]

Could we get a final list of authors for guessing purposes? *no idea who'd dropped*

I kinda want to start guessing, but there was a fic where I'd been told who it's by - although I swear to Yukimura that even if I wasn't told I would've worked it out. So, hmmmm. Maybe I'll count that as a guess too.

*starts a spreadsheet to tabulate her guesses XD*

[dshae47]

I know lechaco and sharpie had to drop, and I'm guessing the_dw and schweinsty also dropped because there were no gifts posted for them :D.

[crystalusagi]

XD an entire spreadsheet!

[reddwarfer]

I didn't put up a list because there are only gifts posted for people that gave them. So, there aren't any names on gifts for people that didn't produce something for the exchange.
