Fanfiction Extension
I'll make good use of this space and post all my fic reflections from my other sites here. There's just not enough room in my little FanFic account. T_T All of them are in chronological order... eh, not that it really matters.
If anybody wants to read them for whatever reason (I can't fathom why, except to laugh at me) then they can be accessed...
Allusions
E.M. Nemesis mentioned I was getting ambitious. And really busy. I won't deny it. XD I feel quite eager to suddenly produce lots of fanfics, now that I have a lot of time (before IB exams, that is)
This is my first multi-chap YamaxHaru fic. It has hints and full-blown evidences of other pairings. I guess it can be called an AU since it's in between Varia and the Future... again. I also tried to make it Humorous. Tried. Readers, prepare yourselves for YamaxHaru fluffiness, Tsuna acting as Kyoko's papa, Gokudera as prince charming, and Yamamoto as the villain. And no, it's not crack. It's Namimori High's Festival Play. XD But there are some dashes of seriousness... and OCCness. In any attempt, I'm going to have fun writing this.
Doctor
A Yamamoto x Haru fic. Set between the Varia and Future Arcs... um, does that make sense? Anyhow, this fic is a little darker and such from my usual batch. Sigh. Those who fight always have it hard. (I mean Yamamoto. I love you, Yamamoto...!) Heh.
After reading "Enigmas, are better left unsolved" by Asuka-dono, I suddenly became motivated to write an action fic... with a hot Yamamoto. Is that right? Er, Haru gets some action as well. And now that I think about it, I didn't account for that thing where Yamamoto almost goes Major League. Eh.
Well, I enjoyed writing this fic immensely. It was so fun trying to think of crazy Bond-esque scenes. Hopefully the readers didn't think it was an awkward and pathetic attempt... XB
Once
My first Yoshino x Touma fic. Or Tohma x Yoshi. Or Toshino. Or Youma. Or... whatever. I watched Digimon Savers and decided to root for this couple. Except they probably aren't a couple. But I want them to be. So I wrote about them. Obviously.
Actually, I think they make a really good couple. Even though she's freakin' four years older and he could practically be her younger brother (as she thought in the fic)... I believe their personalities make up for the age difference. Besides, he's a genius. He graduated from university at age twelve.
No matter what, I support this couple. I think they can work out. Well, we'll see. XD Maybe I just like writing fluff about them.
Approach
Yet another OC fic... and yes, there's romance. Oh, it's dribbling with romantic stuff. Actually, it's probably not that romantic, but considering how subtle (sort of) and blunt I am, actually acknowledging he has a girlfriend straight out is... wah. By the way, the 'he' is Oshitari Kenya. Of course, I'm not all that familiar with him, but considering how much screen time (and manga time) he has, I guess it's not surprising. But I still like him.
Anyhow, the idea for this fic came from my fondness of the Oshitari cousins. Their relationship has so many doorways and windows that can be used... the possibilities make my head whirl. I'm a fangirl through and through. Besides, Kenya is pretty hot. (but his captain will always be number one in my heart)
Should I really go on with that "OC fic" collection thing? Because this would be the second installment of it. XD
Change
You know, there's so much you can do about Shishido's pre-transformation hair. I mean, can you imagine his attitude before his humiliating defeat? And after he cut his hair, what did his regular classmates think or say? The anime kind of glosses over some stuff like that since it's focused on the games... but not me! XD
Yeah, this fic is on Shishido Ryou and (wait for it...) an OC. I feel a little strange writing about him because he's not like my favorite character... But I get the feeling that he's an easy guy to tease. I mean, he acts all cool and tough-guy-ish, but he probably gets flustered and stuff. And I think he's a blushable type. Eh, I lied. He is a favorite... sort of.
So... the story. It's really short. And I think it might be more romantic than my other ones. But she's still an OC. And I hope they were in-character. Actually, I have a confession. Shishido's long hair reminded me of my own hair, and how I rather think the length of it kind of sets me apart from other girls who don't have long hair. I'm kind of insecure like that. T_T Oh well. Hopefully I learn from my own story.
And I was wondering... should this fic be part of a new collection? "Fics with an OC perspective" collection? Heh. XB
Debt
Announcement: Everybody who hasn't already done so, please watch Gintama. It is hilarious. Like, crazy on-par-with-Ouran-and-School Rumble hilarious. To be honest, I would've just skipped over it because it didn't seem all that interesting. Blah. You know how it is. An anime looks unappealing so you don't watch it, but later something prompts you to watch it, and then you're amazed by how great it is and wonder how in the bazoozies you could have missed it before. That's how it was for me, but now... Gintama rocks. XD
Okay. So, the reason for that thing up there is because it seems not many people watch it. I went to the Gintama fanfic section and was absolutely aghast by the meager less-than-or-equal-to thirty fics published. Que shocked expression and gasp(s).
But I'll stop my rant, because it might just be that viewers find it hard or uninspiring to write fanfiction about Gintama. Eh, it's understandable.
I've lost my purpose of writing all this... oh wait. Yes. Okita and Kagura. They are characters from Gintama, and they are my favorite couple in Gintama. Thus, I wrote about them. Thus, the reason for typing this mini-story in my profile. Thus, I should just stop now.
Girlfriend
Wow, this was a little spontaneous. It was like, I'm walking down the sidewalk when suddenly, out of the blue, I think, "What if a car pulled up and the mafia kidnapped me?" And bam. The story happened. Actually, no. It was more like, Yamamoto needs to show more of his dangerous, mafia-hitman side of him so that Haru can be all excited and swept away by his manliness and turn some of her one-sided attention away from Tsuna... except she turned out to be unconscious for three-quarters of the story. Haha.
By the way, this is yet another YamaxHaru fic. I'm on a roll.
Eh... I don't know what else to say, except I wish it was a lot more action-packed. I'm not good at that genre. Heck, what am I good at=(
Stars and Soap
My second Katekyo (Kateikyoushi) Hitman Reborn fic... and what do you know, it's all about Yamamoto and Haru. I feel like I have no life but fanfiction, writing about unknown couples with such enthusiasm. But it's all good, because I have a supporter! E.M. Nemesis is a fellow author who shares the same views as I do: Yamamoto and Haru can go on forever and it'll still not be enough. Or maybe it really is just me. XD
Anyways, I thought of this fic's story plot thingy while I was (brace yourselves)... washing the dishes. Oh. And there really are such things as "professional dishwashers"... AKA our mothers. XD But obviously not me (or Haru). Well, we grow into those things, eventually. Maybe when we marry...?
And on a sort-of random note, the title reminds me of Patrick Star from Spongebob Squarepants. I don't know why.
Rainwater
My first Katekyo (Kateikyoushi) Hitman Reborn fic... and it's a romance! Hah! Yeah, I picked a totally random pair as the couple... but are they so random? Hm. As I've mentioned, my brain is practically romance-wired, so everything somehow twists and becomes "love."
Anyways, Haru and Yamamoto strikes me as a good couple, not only because they seem to be together all the freaking time (watch the Daily Life Arc and then some... those two are constantly side by side. And the manga? The Future Arc? Don't even get me started... heh), but because their personalities go together like the moon and the stars... or something. And by the way, the future Yamamoto is really handsome and... sigh.
The title speaks for itself, right? Since he's the Rain Guardian and all... and it was raining today. The setting is almost like "Caught in the Rain," huh? XD Oh, and I realize that many people don't like Haru because she's annoying and useless and gah. It's weird because I thought she was cool at first, but afterwards I was like, 'go away, you're just annoying Tsuna!'... and now I think she's a spunky girl who just might get along with Yamamoto. Muaha. Another rare couple is born.
Spark
As you can tell if you glance up at that 'Hottest Guys' topic; under it is Shiraishi Kuranosuke, the love of my PoT life. He's wonderful. And I really like his hair. Why does he remind me of Urahara from Bleach? (forget the Shitenhouji manager's hat--though he's pretty cool too) So, desperate to write something about him, I pulled out an OC... and thus, the fic.
But in no way is it romantic. Well, maybe the very slight brushes are hints... but there's not supposed to be a pairing. Nope. Not at all. I can't give Shiraishi away yet, even if I'm the author. XD
The third installment of the ever-growing "Captain fics with an OC perspective" collection.
Ephemeral
An idea that just sneaked into my brain when I was thinking about Fuji Yumiko. I think she's totally awesome, especially since she's Fuji Syusuke's older sister. I mean, she's got to be something amazing. And apparently in this little fic, little Saeki thinks so too. Haha. Obviously it's fluffy and romantic, but that's a little boy's crush. I don't think he still has that crush... but it doesn't hurt to hope, right?
I mean, she's only nine years older than him.
...Er, yeah, that was awkward. Only slightly. But anyways, the title means 'short-lived' so that's got to speak for something. It's one of my more cuter fics, I think.
Like Them
Wrote in honor of Rokkaku, I decided to go by the kids' perspectives. But somehow, in my romance-twisted mind, it became a girls versus boys thing. And this is how it turned out.
I think some parts are confusing and random. The last part especially--even I'd have to squint to see what the heck it was about. Basically, I just really like Saeki (as you can probably tell). And I'm sure those Rokkaku girls do too. XD
Before
Now this is a random surprise, even for me (the self-proclaimed Random Queen). I was just crunching out story ideas and this was one of them. I honestly don't know if I was hoping for more romance or connection between An and Chitose, because it just might be possible. Some more of this hopeful thinking leaks into my crack of all crack multi-chapter fic... "The Grapevine." But they're not too farfetched, as long as Tezuka and Miyuki have a chance to be together. XD
The fic itself, though, is not romance-based, but rather friendship-based. Maybe even brother-sister. Eh. So there's that. (By the way, I like it.)
The Bento of Forgiveness
A very short fic featuring Atobe Keigo and (surprise!) an OC. It was inspired by about 10 seconds of footage during the Nationals OVA episode 8. I literally thought, "Atobe, you bastard! This is a great idea!" and began to type like mad. I might have gotten some factual info wrong, but please, in the spirit of my inspiration and madness, ignore them. They're not the point. The point is, Atobe was a bastard and I really thought it was a great idea. ...And the title is a given, right?
The second fic of the ever-growing "Captain fics with an OC perspective" collection.
The Grapevine
A multi-chapter fic with a very intricate and confusing plot and a whole lot of coincidences. Seriously. If this story was any indication of our fates... we'd be screwed.
But it's a very fun fic to write. I don't know if it's nearly as fun to read (heh) but I know it's got to be a little overwhelming. There are so many characters and schools and events interweaving and crossing-over each other that even I get lost. Oh well. Let's go with the flow, yeah?
It's dedicated to the females (most of them) of Prince of Tennis. No doubt the entire crazy fic will revolve around them. If you don't like reading about the girls... you have been warned. XD
Oh, for the multitude of implied pairings...!
Looking Through Glass
Another TomoxKai. I think this one is a bit different from the others, though. I mean, it's still a bit fluffy, but the atmosphere and tone are... different. Yeah. Maybe it's all the flashbacks? Or because Tomoka is a bit more serious?
And it's very short. Just thought I might like to add that. It's not nearly as long as "Caught in the Rain." I cherish it, if only because it's a bit deeper than the other ones.
Oblivious
I was about to do my homework (I swear) when all of the sudden I thought, "Doesn't Seigaku have a girl's tennis team?" And walla. "Oblivious" was born. Surprisingly, this was an easy fic to write, and I like to think that's a good sign, considering I wrote it in a very short amount of time. ("Crap. I have an essay to write. But this is more important!") It literally is a 'window' into the Tezuka Zone... from the girl's tennis captain's perspective. But fear not! It is not a Totally Random pairing with an OC. And the OC doesn't even have a name. So. Hm.
This is the first fic of the "Captain fics with an OC perspective" collection. XD
Kiss the Mafia
My first official (?) fic with RyoxSaku. I support them, only because their "love" seems too funny... ah, but that's mean. I just really like Sakuno. And she really likes Ryoma, so... I'm all for them! The original title was supposed to be "King of Mafia", but "Kiss" works just as well. I think. Of course, there are tiny hints of TomoxKai somewhere in there...
Inspiration: my chuch plays mafia all the time during retreats. It somehow turns into a heated battle ("You're the mafia!" "No, you are!" "Let me see your card...!"), but that's another story. When people read this, I bet they never look at Mafia the same way again. Hm.
Caught in the Rain
I have absolutely no shame. TomoxKai can go on and on forever and I will never have enough... ever. To be quite honest, I think Kaidoh was a tad OOC. But then, everyone is out of character unless the real producers and writers write them... so... This fic setting was inspired by a Korean movie intro... something about these two guys biking up a mountain, and then it rains, and so they stop at a lone house and ask the pretty single woman if they could borrow her porch... and one of the guy is, like, watching the woman reading through her window... yeah.
I thought it was sexy. But whatever. I had a blast writing this.
Her Lavatory
This was a serious attempt at my favorite GB couple. Actually... it wasn't serious. Maybe the towel part, but the bathroom's history... yeah. Really, it's one of the shortest fics I've written. But people seem to like it (judging from what their reviews say) and I'm kind of glad. It's really not on par with other HimikoxBan fics (Rabid Lola...!) but I try my hardest. Overall, I'm very glad I wrote it.
Persuasion
This is the ultimate of all ultimate-ness. Inspired by a lovely one-shot called A Rose Petal Love Story, this fic is full of Chiharu Mihara and Takeshi Yamazaki goodness and lovey-dovey-ness. To me it felt like the sugar and sap was oozing out every time I typed a word... (the visual image!) and I laughed every time Chiharu missed her target. Anyways, I had lots of fun writing it, and I'm glad that those who read it liked it as well.
Special Thanks
To the person whose review left my eyes all watery and burning... (thanks a lot) and spurting out in random laughs of happiness...
Thank you, -PIGS-do-FLY-.
Rivalry vs Jealousy
My first ever Kaidoh and Tomoka fic! Yay! And I'm coming back here to write about it because I didn't know I was going to do this whole author's commentary and reflection here... anyhow. I'm afraid to read this because its difference in style might just shock me. I don't remember how I thought like back then... it's kind of freaky. Hehe, but I should read it again, just to see how much I've improved or changed or digressed...
-An hour later-
Ack. Wow. I cringed at the many little mistakes and weird stuff I put in there. Ah, but I can't be too harsh. All stories are like that. And I'm proud of this, since it is the first story in my collection of TomoxKai fics. And the plot idea isn't so bad, if I could fix some stuff here and there.
Special Deals
This is my first and only fanfic, so I'm glad I've gotten so many reviews on encouragement and good feedback. To be honest I was kind of scared to put this story online... out into the wild...I was very afraid. But now, looking back and seeing how much I've gone through, it's just... I don't know. Okay, enough of this drabble (is that what this is?). I'm going to write some serious stuff here!
And... yeah. Right. Serious.
So the story: "Special Deals" is not a very serious story plot, nor does it actually make sense...x.x But I try to make it humorous and sweet and fluffy and all that good stuff. So if it seems like in one of its chapters there's a moment where you want to go "O_O Huh?", it's okay. Really. Because I understand. (Understand what?)
I also realize that Tomoyo Daidouji is rather, er, out of character. And I understand that. Really. But in my opinion, I think that even though Tomoyo is intelligent in the anime and manga, and she's hyper-sensitive to everything that goes around her (just like a certain somebody... coughEriolcough) and she's practically perfect in everything she does (cooking, singing, academics, smiling, looking through people's acts, hiding her feelings, etc.)... She's still human. In a sense. And because she's human, meaning she actually has weaknesses that are more than just Sakura, she's got to have something "normal" going inside her mind. Especially since I'm writing her as a teenager. And teenagers are just NOT perfect. So she can't be perfect and cheerful and mind-reading ALL the time.
...Eh. I guess what I'm trying to say is that OOC Tomoyo Daidouji is completely acceptable.
Well. There you have it. XD
