Christmas 'gift' for my online friends!

[caitlin_chan]

So, since I haven't bought gifts or whatever for my online friends (alana, atom, slightbuddhist, tonko, pixiemarie, inomuiro, this is you guys! If I forgot anyone, OMG!SORRY!), partly because I have no money and partly because I have no addresses, I have come up with something that is free and will (hopefully) make you happy

You're a beautiful, sweet angel. Or something. ♥ ♥ ♥

... Hey, you know how when we met I was yearning for ShikaChou fic? And how that desire is sill burning strong? :D? *Would love you even more for forever*

And if you'd like, I'd love to write a fic or draw something for you, too. ^_^ Just say the word~

[caitlin_chan]

Oh, I can totally swing a ShikaChou one-shot for you. ^_^ Established relationship or them starting out? Any particular time frame you have in mind?

Art would be wonderful... Sandsibs? In some sort of way that you can tell they're family? I have this adorable mental image of them all asleep on a couch post-rescue Gaara arc, and Gaara's in the middle, that I want to write a fic for... can you do that? Or is that too specific?

[alanahikarichan]

Anything you want to try for the guys; I trust your judgement. *Quietly bwees*

I'll see what I can do. ^_^

[caitlin_chan]

Otay!

*also bwees*

::wave:: Hi!

I have no idea how to reply to the ff.net PM (i r noob) so I'll say thanks here--and don't worry, you're not coming off as mean in any way whatsoever. Thank you for your mini-beta. I'll have to poke around with my account there to figure out how to update the fic (been a while), since I agreed with your point.

At least I can edit the one on LJ easily enough. ::does so::

And, OMG fic for meeeee. :D :D
Okay, hrm. How's this:

Naruto pirate-ship AU. Any pairings you want, m/m always good, but aything goes, heh. Can be goofy as hell or angst-ridden (but prefer happy endings if so). My main pirate-y knowledge comes from One Piece, by the way, so don't worry about authenticity.

If that's too general or too WTF-y, then seriously, give it a pass, and how about... some Hinata-Neji friendship, with presence/cameos of Naruto, and/or possibly Kiba and Shino.

You're so brave, I'm not sure I could write off of a prompt but if you give me one back I'd like to try, though my brain's in a Riskverse rut so I'm not sure how I'd do

[caitlin_chan]

To reply to PMs on FFnet, you go to the person's profile and click the "Send message" link. ^_^

If you need it, I tell you how to fix your FFnet versions. ^^

How about I give the pirate thing a try (because it sounds like LOADS of fun! ^_^), and then if I can't get it to be anything worth reading, I fall back to the Hinata-Neji friendship? Either one would be a one-shot, though - is that cool?

Well, they won't be done by Christmas, because I have exams and work, and I have to work on getting what I have of my NaNo novel ready for my free copy to be published (BWEE! Free published copy! Yay for LuLu!) at least a bit, since I have to send it in by January 15th. ^^;;

OMG, Riskverse would make me happy! So would Shika/Chou or Naruto/Neji or Naruto/Gaara or anything really, m/m not required, since I like Naruto/Hinata and Kiba/Hinata and Hinata/Gaara (as long as the author has them actually, y'know, meet and stuff before getting together) and Shika/Temari and... yeah. I'll read anything if it's well written. ^^ Oh, and I'm a sucker

[tonko]

Aha, you've cracked the secret of teh ffnets! Thanks, lol, I'll remember that for next time.

Good luck for the pirate thing--I'm glad you think it'd be fun, I wasn't sure if it was just cracktastic, heh, and I'm sure whichever ends up working will be awesome. No worries here if it's post-Christmas, half the niceness is anticipation :P. Oneshot of course! I certainly wasn't thinking of a 60-chapter epic :P

::cracks knuckles:: Hurt/comfort, booyah! That's my thing for sure. Time to start thinking, then. Aaaand, hello, I have an idea. Shika/Chou Riskverse not-quite m/m due to post-marriage (that okay?) h/c.

And hey, you get an actual published copy of your NaNo novel? That is AWESOME.

[caitlin_chan]

Hey, no problem. I've been with the site since... oh gods... 2000, when it used to be, well, really good. I miss the old Writer's University section.... :(

Well, it is cracktastic, but it's not JUST cracktastic. ^^ I see you shiver with antici... ... ... ...pation! The only reason I mentioned the one-shot thing was that I actually had someone who I'd offered a fic to (this was a few years ago) expect a big epic fic. >< It was kind of aggravating, actually, because they didn't even say thanks for what they got - they were all like "Is that all? Where's the rest?". >Wheeeeee, h/c! ^_^ And a sorta Shika/Chou is totally fine. ^_^ Your writing in general makes me happy, so it's all good. *is excited* As you may have noticed, I'm pretty easy to please as far as pairings go. ;P *hearts your next gen m/m OC/OC pairings as case in point* XD

[pixiemarie]

OMG FIC FOR ME REALLY? ♥!

UMMM, I would be delighted to get anything with Naruto in it, perhaps with a side of Gaara? ♥!!

I make the same offer to you! Since, I, too, am broke yet still wish to spread the holiday gift giving cheer. ^_^

Psst- Slightbuddhist is my writing journal. One less person to worry about, haha. Thank you so much!

[caitlin_chan]

That I can definitely do. ^_^ Have you read past the timejump in the manga? If not, how far have you read? (I just want to make sure I'm not spoiling you for something.)

OMG! XD I feel kinda stupid now! Sorry, I haven't got a great memory. ^^

[pixiemarie]

No need to worry about spoiling me- i'm pretty much caught up to the recent chapters. =)

Haha, no need to feel stupid- Somtimes I forget i have that journal, since i don't use it often. :p

[caitlin_chan]

Okay! ^_^ Sounds good!

[atom0001]

Wow. I'm touched. I would never even think of getting my online friends anything, let alone people I actually know.

You are so thoughtful, and by all means a good friend. Thanks.

But no thanks. I really don't feel like I have known you long enough to receive such a wonderful gift. I would love one, but it just wouldn't sit right with me. Please do not even think about it.

Merry Christmas!

[caitlin_chan]

Well, I'm also looking for an excuse to write lots of fic. XD See, if I have something like a deadline or I'm writing it FOR someone, then I'll actually finish it. Unlike most of my fics. XD

I'll put it this way - if I'd friended you yesterday I'd still offer to write fic for you. ^_^ I just like doing things for people. I've burned and sent discs of Naruto episodes to the UK and the US after only knowing the people I was sending them to for days. XD

You sure? The offer still stands!

[atom0001]

You really put a smile on my face. You are such a good person.

I would accept the offer if I had the creative mind to write one myself or if you accept to allow me to do something for you.

[caitlin_chan]

Well, if you want to do something for me, you can go right ahead, but you don't have to. ^_^ I'm not sure what you'd want to do, but if you'd like to you may.

So... does this mean you accept?

ill bite

[iamatwerp]

I hope I count

Re: ill bite

[caitlin_chan]

Well, this post was directly mostly at people that I don't know in real life and haven't ever met, but if you want me to write you something, too, I can. I can't imagine you'd want fanfic, though. ^^;;
