adfljks. I must write it then. Matt and Mello would totally corrupt Sayu. Well, in my ideal crack world of crack.
Damn. And they're my favorite characters, too. I wrote a Wedy/Mello interaction because I liked her so much. And I came up with a brilliant idea for Misora meeting Matt. And then a not-so-brilliant idea where she goes to Wammy's House to teach L capoeira and the Wammy Boys all fall in love with her. Which is funny, because they would be thirteen and she would be engaged to Gorgeous Penber. :/ I am strange.
Wish I could write Hal, because she's an individual thinker. She never comes out the way I want her to. It's like writing Mello. I can never be sure if it's in character or not.
xD Oh B. I love B. He's so crazy. It's so fun to write crazy.
Not writer's block...per se. I know where I want to go. And I know how I want it to end. And I have the next chapter typed up and waiting in my Documents on my fanfiction account. Right now it's just a matter of writing it and making sure I fill in the plot holes while still carrying through with the story's momentum. I have a terrific phobia of mangling this ending. So far, within the story itself, there's nothing I want to change. Which is an extraordinary feat. I want to make sure I keep it up. The last thing I want to do is let myself down.
Besides, my writing process is so complicated for Miserlou. I've got to read all the chapters I've already written so far, and then grab a pen and pull my hair back all the way and write down everything that goes through my head, or else I'll lose that idea forever. Ugh. I'm unbearable.

I did try most valiantly to be constructive in my review so I only feel it's only fair that I get to gush here.
Ryuuzaki as a sneeze. Fucking hilarious but it was topped by his cape getting stuck. Ah, the demented, sulky panda had no luck in this story.
And Watery! Oh fuck, beyond description how I felt every time that bastardisation of Watari came up.
The Joker, of course, was done to perfection, rare with blood oozing out.
I love 'A' and Bruce=Howl (all that UNUSUAL activities) and name dropping Fox.
I love your dialogues. You must never not write them. 'The Rosary' (as it is titled in my head) being an exception.
I think the Misora story is perfect but I shall be too busy finding your Wedy/Mello to comment more on it.
How odd. I have always thought your Mello was a perfect blend of mad / sane. That is why I enjoy your writings so much. I need not gnash my teeth every other line.
*Hugs Raven* Thank you for caring so much for 'Miserlou'. It is not unbearable it is simply a perfectionist at work. Sometimes I cannot believe how comfortable I am writing to you when you are such an amazing writer. I was ever so diffident (and still am, a little) when I first started but one simply has to SAY something when one comes across something so fantastic.

Rofl. Sirius Gordon is a hoot. I wanted to get that whole normal guy whose life is really...what-the-hell-oh-shit most of the time. That whole "I try to do the best with what I have" line is so telling.
OH but I love writing cracky, childish L. And redeemed myself some by having him be 'interested' in Bruce. xD
No idea where 'Watery' came from.
Oh thank youuu. Writing him was an experience. Hmm. If the Joker is rare, would Two-Face be well done?
Hahahahah ♥ Quite an apt title.
Better than, I dunno, Horny Little Geniuses Touching Themselves/Each Other.
:/
Good luck, considering I never finished it. I am a miserable failure.
See, I always think I write Mello a bit too crazy. I figure his emotional, impulsive rage is what differentiates him from Near, so I tend to put a lot of emphasis on it, which is tricky because he's also a genius. The same with Matt. It's not as much of a struggle, but I constantly have to keep myself from having him melt into a puddle. I mean, in 'The Rosary' I really had to struggle with that, because he does melt a little bit, thanks his pituitary gland. It does not help at all that I have severe paranoia.
Bah. Forgive me. I'm probably boring you to do death.
I'm so obsessed with picking nits. Damn.
Careful with all these glowing compliments! I might mishandle them and blow my ego sky high.
You are so sweet. My firm belief that I don't deserve such amazing feedback is starting to waver.
Thank you though, thank you so much. I know I've told you, but it's so damn good to know my work out there is appreciated by somebody. It keeps me going; a fact I'm not graceful or reserved enough to keep hidden.
Your responses to my writing make me glad that I am not. :D
