*pathetic Bree gatekeeper imitation* Drabbles! Three drabbles!

[caitlin_chan]

So I've been on a bit of a drabble kick lately - wrote three in my most recent few French 115 classes.  Two Gaara POV, and one Neji (much to

Geez, I have enough trouble naming long-ass patchy AU fic chapters, so I wouldn't worry about it too much. Just remember if it hits you randomly at some point to write it down before you forget! I lose more fic titles and plots that way :/

Know what I like best about all these? That they go right nicely into canon (well, okay, the first not yet, but it could!).

[caitlin_chan]

Titles are a pain. Sometimes they just come to me when I've written the fic (or I get the title and write the fic from the title XD), and sometimes I'll spend hours and hours trying to come up with something.

Thanks! I hope the first one will fit into canon eventually!! *crosses fingers*

Mmmm, Nejific~

I like that little piece. It seems to be very much Neji's attitude when it comes to the Barrel Arc. That's when I finally started loving him, actually.

...hope he doesn't die. XD;

[phoenix_melody]

...and it'd be so much easier to track you if I just friended you. XD *adds to list*

*friends you back* Love! ^_^

I'm glad you like it; a couple people didn't like the run-on bit in the middle because they didn't realise that it was supposed to be his thoughts and stuff. ^^;; Yeah, I didn't like him a whole lot until he got non-asshole.

I hope he doesn't die, too.

I love Gaara drabbles, I really do. :) The first one is lighthearted and gives me warm and fluffy feelings, while the second one is so powerful... ^_^ Truly lovely indeed, my dear. Thank you for sharing these with us. :D

Haha, your awesome characterization of Gaara makes me feel woefully inadaquete. XD Nah, just kidding. I do think you nailed him down better than me, though. This just means I must get more practice at writing Gaara! ^_^ Oh gee, even 50+ Gaara x Matsuri drabbles later, I still have a lot of room for improvement. :D

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked them. ^^;

Please don't feel inadequate, haha, I'm sure you do him well. ^^ I just spend waaaaaay too much time deconstructing him. Man, you shoulda seen the massive essay-thing I ended up writing about his character for an ML I'm on when someone was like "Gaara has no personality". ...Maybe I should post it on inkntendinitis or something, haha. ^^;;

[ladyassassin]

...Whut. Gaara, no personality? ...Either that person is incredibly dense, or completely slept through every single episode Gaara has ever been in. The episodes where he fought against Naruto in the forest, there was some major character development during that time. Not to mention the Chunin exam, his fight against Kimimaro, the filler arcs... Geez! It's endless!

Way to fail at recognizing characterization, oblivious person. >.>

I'd love to read your essay.

Re: *more fangirl moments*

[caitlin_chan]

Yeah, I was all "I AM HIGHLY OFFENDED BY YOUR BLINDNESS IN REGARDS TO WHO IS PRETTY MUCH MY FAVOURITE CHARACTER!" ...Though I never actually said that, I just wrote really long e-mails to the list breaking Gaara down into little pieces. XDD

Oblivious indeed.

Haha, I'll have to dig it up out of my stored mail and/or the list archives then.

...I've kinda forgotten what the hell I even wrote.
