Good Morning

[bluerising]

Five days until the contest is due.

In other news, found some new KakaSaku fanart this morning. I've never seen them around before, so I thought I'd share:

Good morning, indeed!
So much pretty fanart... *hurr*
Thanks for posting!
Oh, and best wishes to all the participants of the AU contest. ;D

[bluerising]

Mrrrwwww! <--I'm pretty sure that's the sound I made this morning at seeing it all.

Posting was no problemo. Definitely thought you ladies might enjoy it too, since we all have similar interests when it comes to appreciating these sort of things. <3

[denilmo]

Ah. Nice fanart haul.
Thanks for sharing, I haven't seen them before.

Five days already! I haven't even started yet -.-'
How is yours coming along? I'm so excited for the entries :D

[bluerising]

Oh yeah, I've never seen them before either. Which was shocking for me...! Because after being saturated in fandom for a while, sometimes a fan can get it in her head that she's seen it all. Which is quite delusional. Because there's no way a single person could possibly see everything there's to be seen. Especially when there's a whole world of sharing out there, and caches of fics and fanart yet to be discovered.

I... have not started either. *hears wind blow*

But with four days left now, the pressure is definitely on, on, on.

Now it's good afternoon. I forget Clear, what is your topic... I remember seeing on the list and being like "Ooh, Clear's doing that one!!" just this morning, but I've already forgotten...!

Great pics. I find Kakashi in the second one inexplicably but overwhelmingly attractive. *furtive swoon*

[bluerising]

A good afternoon to you too, dear Eldr! Or actually... it's nighttime now. So I think it would be more appropriate to say good evening?

Yes, ma'am. My topic choice this time around is Angels/Demons (though mostly the angel aspect). There have been some very nice angel/demon kakasaku fics in the past, but I thought it would be an interesting and challenging topic to tackle. Let's just say their relationship is about to get very celestial within the next few weeks.

Kakashi is always attractive. But agreed, that second pic certainly does funny things to the heart. XD

[eldrfire]

Oh yeah, angels and demons! I look forward to it! While cleaning today after reading this I must confess that I was envisioning different possibilities of what you might write for it... bwha haha, I wonder if any of my guesses will be even CLOSE to accurate! Whatever it is, I'm sure it will be excellent, Clear. >:)

I'll have you know that today I finished the draft of the last chapter of mine... my entry is going to be approximately 24k words long! It's only 3 chapters, though... those are long chapters! All for the sake of science fiction! My my, what ever will it include...

[bluerising]

Whew. So you finished the draft of your fic, eh? It sounds like you're right on track, Eldr. Just as before... I'm still veeery curious about what this little science fiction ficcie may include.

As for my story, the contents are a sec~ret~~! ♥

Mostly because I'm still twisting the story around my mind and seeing what situations would be best. Only three days left now... Maybe you should send those different possibilities you envisioned my way. XD

[aorin]

Five days more indeed.

I'm panicking here and typing up a draft of the voting thread as we speak. D:

Also, lovely pictures ♥ I recognise the second and the last. The second is by sensei/i, a doujinka who draws primarily KakaNaru and occassionally NaruSaku and NarukoTenzou. The last picture is by 296 but she closed down her website earlier this year. She focuses on KakaSaku, more specifically adult!Kaka and young!Saku in sexual situations and at times dub!con... so yeah, there's definitely pedo vibes there :3

[bluerising]

Four days now! :O :O :O

The fact that you're already typing up the voting thread draft just goes to show how careful and attentive you're being about the contest. <3

Aorin, I'm always impressed by your level of fandom knowledge! Way to go in remembering those names and the specific details of their preferences and styles. I'm a little bummed out that the last artist closed down her site before I could ever take a peek at anything. But at the same time it's somewhat understandable with all the dub!con going on. Perhaps she was covering her tracks?

[cutecrazyice]

Pretty pictures. :D

How are you coming along? Good luck! I'm having my writer's block, so mine's currently a mess. Lol. But I'm so excited to read the other entries.

[bluerising]

I can't stop staring at the first one. Just the sweetness of the situation makes me want to squee and flail around, then hug a pillow.

Oh man, writer's block is never fun. Like I mentioned to Deni above, my word count right now is zero. But I have a rough outline and some definite scenes in mind. The ending is set. All I need now is a strong beginning and launching point for the story.

Hopefully, the submission will be finished a few days before the deadline. But if the past is any indicator... there's a strong possibility it'll actually be cranked out an hour before the due date. Adrenaline going! Hear pumping! Blood racing! With minutes winding down! Which is exactly as anxiety and heart attack inducing as it sounds. So this time around I was really hoping to get done beforehand. XD

[cutecrazyice]

Yeah, it's so sweet. I love how they hook pinkies secretly, it's so cute. :D

Aaaah. I always have trouble with beginnings, so good luck with that! Strong beginnings are definitely important.

And adrenaline can be good, because it helps get our brains working. XD

[bluerising]

Adrenaline gets the brain going, huh? I actually that about that last night when a loud popping noise in the apartment nearly made me jump out of my skin. It turned out to be the A/C making random machine sounds. But man, was my heart ever going after that.

Maybe I should go seek out thrills and be an adrenaline junkie over the next few days to get this story out. XD
