[POSTDATED] Welcome To My World

[Sticky Entry]

Hello! Please call me Ai. This is a fandom journal--I don't read this friends list anymore, but I will continue to use this journal for fannish posts and to post fanfiction to apples_for_me. Feel free to friend/watch; you don't need my permission. ♥ If you are here for the fiction or fanfic, it's over at apples_for_me. ^_^ I'm always open to discussions, but I am anti-spoilers. Please check my anime list and manga list if you want to know what I've watched/am watching!

ETA: There are no direct/overt links from this journal to my "real" LJ out of this page to make sure Google or business acquaintances don't connect the dots: fandom people who are interested should feel free to ask me for my "real" LJ name through PM or e-mail. ♥

No fanfic bunnies, only original ones. *groans* I don't actually mind/care, since the real problem I'm having is low motivation to write (too much homework)!

Gay Teen-Boy Romance Comics

I read an article in The Atlantic called "The Gay Teen-Boy Romance Comic Beloved by Women in Japan". Seeing yaoi being dissected in the mainstream media is always weird, IMHO. I don't have thoughts on it, but does anyone else?

Much Ado About Assets

I just wanted to signal boost a fic that was clearly written by a genius after my own heart: Much Ado About Assets. I confess to a BURNING DESIRE to read the question that sparked this entire fic, though, since I thought AR was an asset myself.

New Year's Resolution

tezuka - lonely flower - default
To those of you more familiar with Yuletide than I am, what IS the New Year's Resolution challenge? The only answer I can get is here, which says that "The New Year's Resolution challenge opens on January 1, after author reveals go live. The challenge remains open until the next Yuletide signups close. All of the requests that were submitted for the most recent Yuletide are made available. Anyone with an AO3 account can write stories for them and post them into that year's NYR subcollection. So, for instance, after Yuletide 2011 closed, those prompts were made available for NYR 2012."

All well and good, but that doesn't answer the question. What is the New Year's Resolution challenge?


[Edit: Answered (very quickly!), thank you!]

Changing E-mail Address

tezuka - lonely flower - default
Hi all,

As I mentioned in my previous post, AUone Mail (which has been my mail provider of choice) has decided to shut down service. Because of that, I'm switching e-mail accounts. My new e-mail will be future.skyline@gmail.com. Please do not send any more e-mail to my auone.jp address--if you could update your address books with the new e-mail, that would be fantastic.

New e-mail address again: future.skyline@gmail.com

(Some of you know me personally and have my non-fandom e-mail addresses. Those are unchanged. ^_^ You know me, I like to compartmentalize and keep fandom in a box of its own.)

I've changed my e-mail address on FFN, AO3, DW, and LJ. I think that's all I need to change, but if anyone remembers something I don't, please do let me know!

Hikaru no Go Deathmatch Reveal

tezuka - lonely flower - default
Now that Deathmatch is over, I can finally reveal that I was Ash Landers of the White Suit Society. ^_^ It was a good deathmatch for me, personally speaking, so I'm quite pleased with the results. ♥ What I wrote:

Benefictus - Shindou Mitsuko puts salt in Hikaru's bathwater (debuted in DM round 2, here)

If Go be the Food of Love, Play On - Kurata goes to China, aka "the fic with all the food" (debuted in DM round 3, here)

Seki no Kosumi - Sakurano/Kadowaki (debuted in DM round 4, here)

Cybersex - Ogata/Isumi PWP (debuted in DM round 5, here)

The Senior Apprentice's Wife - Waya/Shigeko, Shigeko deals with her father (debuted in DM final round, here)

Commentary on the fics under individual cuts (or just click any one of them and scroll):

BenefictusCollapse )

If Go be the Food of Love, Play OnCollapse )

Seki no KosumiCollapse )

CybersexCollapse )

The Senior Apprentice's WifeCollapse )

Anyway. This was a fun round, and I actually managed to produce fic on deadline. Motivation, in my case, is not just a deadline, or self-deprivation, but rather not letting anyone else down or disappointing my teammates. Now we know how to get Ai to write!

Last but not least, THANK YOU to everyone who read and voted. You made Deathmatch possible. ♥

DNAngel OP: True Light

tezuka - lonely flower - default


I have never thought about the lyrics before, nor actually paid attention to what on earth was being sung, but now that I actually AM paying attention... ah, DNAngel. I really should re-watch you some day. Some day.
