Title: The Main Character of a Tragedy
Work: The Luna Project
Claim: General
Prompt: 077. What?
Rating: G
Word Count: 130 (the shortest thing I've ever written)
Summary: Kaori has a brief conversation with a man in a bar.
Author's Notes: No, I don't have any idea how this happened or where it came from. It just did. I kinda liked it. So I'm posting. Yes, I'm aware that it's impossibly short. I may actually take it off of my big damn table at a later time...

( I never get the girl... )

Recently, I got a rather... I suppose it could be classified as a "bad" review on an old fanfiction story I wrote way back when (about 2 years ago). Granted, it wasn't a very good story... the characters were... out of character, and the plot was a little bit weak, that didn't seem to bother this person in the least. Nope, their problem was the pairing... for those of you who know me well enough, you know that approximately two/three years ago was my great Fullmetal Alchemist obsession. Along with that came my first real shounen-ai love RoyxEd.

My problem, however, had nothing to do with their aversion to my choice of pairing or anything like that. It was actually because this review was so poorly written, grammatically incorrect, and repetitive in all the wrong ways that I honestly felt bad for them. Especially when they referred to me as a "retard" multiple times. I was torn between laughing at them and feeling sorry for them for honestly thinking they'd made... some sort of impression on me.

So, as a guideline to future flamers everywhere, I've taken the time (it was fun, don't worry) to write up a... guide of sorts... so you don't end up sounding like a slow third grader when reviewing a story rudely.

Possibly the most idiotic thing I've ever written, but it was fun. :/

Title: Phone Call
Work: Untitled
Rating PG-13
Word Count: 1633
Summary: When Lindsey makes the biggest mistake of his life, the first person he calls is his sister, Willow. Willow is, with good reason, displeased to learn that her brother has resurrected the victim of a demon attack because he felt responsible.
Author’s Note: Yes… a new story… I’m… unsure what I think of it this far… I think it could be promising… however, I haven’t a clue how to start it… This is… sort of a very long summary of… the main points of the first chapter. And yes, Lindsey is male! It can be a boy’s name too! Any feedback on the story itself (or any mistakes I’ve made) would be greatly appreciated. As long as it has nothing to do with Lindsey’s name. I like his name, darnit.

( that thing was *not* a level one demon )

Originally I was going to post these in different entries, but they're all kind of short and link together so I figured it would be best to just put them in one entry.

Work: Tsukiakari Senshi
Rating: PG
Summary: All about Miho covering from her first night in Minako's house to her apprenticeship with Katsumi.
Author's Notes: I like writing post-series stuff like this. Here’s a little bit about Minako’s family and Miho's training and whatnot... These are parts 2 through 5 of a five part thing I was asked to do by pepsibighair259. Part one can be found here.

( Miho decided she liked this family. )

Title: Training Session
Work: Tsukiakari Senshi
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 1,204
Summary: Minako decides to give Hera some training for gym class, but Hera invites some guests that ruin the whole thing.
Author’s notes: Another one that was originally pepsibighair259’s. Fun fun fun. Dialog heaaaaavyyyyyyy

( I suggested he bring a friend… )

Title: Hallway Fighting
Work: Tsukiakari Senshi
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 1,069
Summary: Hera’s second encounter with Ben leaves her unconscious with yet another detention.
Author’s notes: This idea (along with a few others) was originally pepsibighair259’s. At one point in time she was writing this entire story from Hera’s point of view, adding in little things that happened during Hera’s first week at Matsudai Boarding School. Recently I’ve changed up the timeline to include Hera’s transfer into the story, and as such I took over and reworked some of these ideas to fit Hera’s mutated personality. (which I say because she didn’t used to be this shy.)

( but you turned into a *wet stick* )

Title: Rei Mino Knows Everything
Work: Tsukiakari Senshi
Rating: G (I think)
Word Count: 420
Summary: Hera and Rei have a little chat about their pyromaniacal friend and a certain blonde student council representative.
Author’s notes: Written a long time ago, and never posted. I figured this one was probably pretty important because throughout the rest of the story Hera makes references to this conversation. I love Rei and her hilarity.

( I heard you had a run-in with Ben today. )
