Well, because I am not privvy to the writing journals on this site, as is this not condusive for my fanfiction profile, I'm posting it here - and here it shall stay (probably). A new challenge is here! Yes, the last two kind of failed, but, in my defense, only one to two people actually submitted entries. But, this time, even if only one person enters, the challenge shall go on! So, here are the details, but before you get them:
Basically, my birthday is May 20th. Giftfics would make me the happiest person on the internet. You can guess which pairings I really love.
sukka; toko; zutara; namiku; roxette;
nodachiaki; tidusyuna; royai; rengekasanoda;
squiffie; seiferolette; shinnluna; asucaga;
peterwendy; selphon; ryoten; oujiromisaki;
ashevaan; cloudaerith; ghiblianything; katemarak;
disneyanything; kiralacus; kenshinkaoru; rukigou
Now, to the challenge:
- Two lists will be posted: A list of lines and quotes that come from some of my fanfiction, or were random ideas. It's fine to use any of them, so long as you make sure to cite me with credit. You may choose 1 - 3 out of the 30. And, the second list will be prompts. You can choose 1-2, and that's it.
- With these two prompts you can write about any pairing.
- Where Family ties and romantic sighs come in? Recently, I have been inspired by the Avatar fic "Sleeping Close", written by Swiss Army Knife(http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4239520/1/Sleeping_Close). Basically, there must be at least one scene that is pivotal to your fic that consists between two unlikely, yet remotely conceivable people sharing a moment about family (as Hakoda and Suki do in Sleeping Close) - be it their own, or someone elses'. And, a romance must be part of the mix as well. Any degree is fine.
- One shots, two shots, and chaptered 5 chaps and under accepted.
- Categories: Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy (any), Avatar: The Last Airbender, Anything from Studio Ghibli, Ouran, Nodame Cantabile, Disney, Gundam SEED/Destiny, Escaflowne, Peter Pan, The Hollow Kingdom Trilogy. Categories open for discussion.
- Deadline is July 2nd, 2008.
LiST ONE.
1. The most changing events of my life all happened in one year.
2. "By 'brilliant' you really mean 'stupid' - right?"
3. "Some upper classman girls would like to see you ... they don't look very happy."
4. Perhaps, she was all too much like glass. Fragile and beautiful, untouchable … she was too easy to break
5. We'll set this dull city aglow tonight!
6. The painting, nostalgic and serene, reminded her an awful lot of someone.
7. Her cast her a look - the kind of look that was meant to say "It's just not working out, baby."
8. "Hey, for some reason this cat doesn't want to move," and then there was a silence, to which was replied, " ... that's my sweater."
9. But, once the ride is over, you wish. That's all, you just wish. Well, wish and regret. You regret that you did not look at all the signs, and you realize now that there are signs for a reason.
10. She's got bright green (or whatever color) eyes and believes in fate. She's got a heart of gold, and lived a little too late.
11. "That's a felony!" "No, it's not." "Yes, it is."
12. We could never have our kids, nor live in the house she had dreamed of. We could never do anything we had planned. It was all ruined.
13. "Let's take control and be ourselves!" That was the first time you can recall ever loving someone so much - so much that it hurt.
14. "And what about your dignity?" A pause for consideration. "I lost that last tuedsay."
15. After a while, it had stopped being about the memories and the love.
16. "Gosh, you're so," He slyly gleemed her way, "in love. with. me." After that, he really did not mind being slapped.
17. She prefers the term 'socially inept', rather than 'man-hater'.
18. With the ice cream burning his brain, all inhibitions began to fade.
19. What was she to know about mysterious happenings? Like boys without identities, magical keys, girls with other halves, memory witches, and talking ducks?
20. Her laugh was a melody - the likes of Beethoven, Bach, Hannon, and Chopin would realidy agree.
21. Some scars run deeper than others. His deepest scars were born of the fact that his own actions drove the happiest girl alive six feet under.
22. The heroine lived her life and had no regrets, despite the fact that the white witch toyed with her memories. And, most of all, because of that one boy, she would always, always believe in Neverland.
23. Listening to him was like listening to herself, which she never did.
24. Sometimes fate has a funny way of working - and, sometimes - fate has a not-so-funny way. Humiliating, maybe.
25. At the end of the day, they were all just morons. Happy, spirited morons.
26. "Hey, can I borrow that keyblade of yours?" "For what?" "If I told, you wouldn't let me borrow it."
27. Her glass slipper looks more like plastic everyday.
28. There are two sides to every death, three parts to these tragedies, and one sun to show us the beauty of it all.

30. In which she does more than learn and he more than teach.
