The Musical!; Fiddler on the Roof; Elisabeth;The Last 5 Years 10 RANDOM RYUCHU FACTS 1. I have a love for alliteration...unfortunately, I couldn't find any synonyms for "facts" that start with 'R' in order to fulfill this love 2. I am a gamer before an anime/manga fan; I am a reader before a writer 3. My screen-name means nothing. The story behind it is 6th grade me was sitting in front of a computer trying to think up something 'cute' to use for a screen-name. Apparently the answer was Ryuchu (If you really desire for it to mean something, ”Ryu" means dragon in Japanese and "chu" is the onomatopoeia for kissing...so there ya go) 4. Currently, I am majoring in both International Business and Japanese 5. I enjoy slipping antiquated or verbose language into my everyday speech. It allows me to pretend that I'm intelligent 6. When I'm bored, I bake. Cookies are the usual suspect, but I'll bake anything, ranging from pastries to cakes to everything in between - I have a big sweet tooth 7. Synth bells, hot tea, warm blankets, and Vienna Teng all make me sleepy 8. A random pet-peeve of mine when it comes to reading fanfiction is when people use terms like "pinkette" or "bluenette". Those are not words 9. My favorite economist is Frederic Bastiat. Yes, I have a favorite economist 10. I have extremely eclectic tastes when it comes to music, but I do have a soft spot for sea shanties, marches, layered harmonies, and minor keys Well then, there's some silly/random things about me. Have any more questions? Feel free to send me a PM! STORIES TO COME! Knotted: [Vocaloid] [LenxLuka] Some people fall on accident; some people fall on purpose. Some people want to be saved; some people want to give up. Whatever the case, people are weak, and it's only through carrying one another that we can struggle through life. This fact of life has never been more apparent to Luka then when she found the boy drowning in red. [Romance] [Angst] [Fantasy] Clinging to Your Voices: [Vocaloid] [Rion-centric] In the distant future, the super power of Crypton has finally been exposed for what it is: a dark organization that has been kidnapping people off the street in order to use their voices to subdue the populace. The rebellion was quick and decisive. Now the world has swung too far the other way: music of all forms has been made illegal, a law strictly enforced by the many organizations that arose to fill the vacuum created by Cypton's destruction. This forces Rion, a once popular pop-idol, into seclusion and hiding. The only thing left to her is a salvaged propaganda radio that still plays the songs and voices of people long ago destroyed in the name of progress. [Set in the world of "Free"] [Sci-Fi] [More concise summary will come when I can think of it] Snowflake Kisses: [Vocaloid] [LeonxIA] Leon has distanced himself from society, choosing to live out in a small cabin in the woods by himself, only venturing into town when his skills as a doctor are required. It's a quiet and simple existence that couldn't please Leon more. Everything changes for him when he finds a girl lying unconscious in the middle of the forest during a fierce snowstorm and he decides to take her home. [Romance] [Supernatural] Cinderella: [Persona 4] [Nanako/Dojima] [Daughter/Father] Once the clock strikes midnight, the dream shatters. This time, Cinderella doesn't leave behind a glass slipper to help her be found. [Family] [Tragedy] Creepy Doll [Working Title] : [Vocaloid] [Len-centric] It's going to kill me. It's going to kill me. If you're reading this...if you're reading this...please save me! Call the police. Oh god, save me! [Horror] Fistful of Cliches: [Vocaloid] [Mew-centric] Mew has always been "one of the guys", however one of her darkest secrets is that she's hopelessly addicted to cutesy romance novels. All she wants is for Prince Charming to come in and sweep her off her feet; is that really so much to ask? [Romance] [Friendship] Training: [Atelier Meruru] [Meruru-centric] Her hands were covered in blisters, her sight was beginning to waver from the constant exposure to the dark, her head was pounding with exhaustion. By all accounts, a sensible person would have given up long ago. But the head-strong princess of Arls was far from sensible; she wouldn't stop training until she was able to overcome the challenge that was Masked G. [...Fantasy?] Moving Forward: [Hakuouki] [SanosukexChizuru] Those two tiny, tottering steps meant so much to Chizuru. They represented both the growth of her son and the progress her life had made as a whole. Post-Sanosuke's Route. [Family] [Romance] [Part of my "Alternate Epilogues Collection"] Unexpected Visitor: [Hakuouki] [SoujixChizuru] When a young, pristine-looking woman happens to stop at their home hidden away in the mountains asking for Souji, Chizuru's not quite sure what to think. Post-Souji's Route. [Family] [Romance] [Part of my "Alternate Epilogues Collection"] Journey of a Feathered Cap: [Harvest Moon: Grand Bazaar/Tale of Two Towns] [Dirk-centric] Dirk was always known as the precocious child with a mischievous streak, a title he has no qualms about maintaining. But as he meets and interact with two women that inexorably change his life, things are bound to change. [Romance] | |||||||
