Sitting hunched over the computer sits a girl- a teen with faded red hair, the roots beginning to grow out- her mahogany eyes fixed intently on the screen and her fingers tapping rapidly over her key board.

"Just a few more..." Her musing sentence tapers off into a yawn and she glances at the time on the bottom edge of her computer, "Jesus! It's four in the freaking morning!" She moves to slouch back in her chair but catches sight of her work and can't help but read it over once more. "It won't take me long if..." Once more her words fade out and she begins tapping at the keyboard.

The frequency of tapping keys steadily sped up until it was clear that she had forgotten all about the time and was fully absorbed in her writing. A sound of triumph pulls from her throat and she pulls her chair in, eyes still darting around the screen as she began saving and clicking around.

"F-a-n-fic-tion... dot net- right, they'd better appreciate this. I am sogoing to have bags under my eyes after this." She finally submits her next chapter then slumps backwards into her chair.

"If I get one damn flame for that I'm going to cry." She states casually after a moment then pushes her chair out and turns off the monitor. She groans as her back cracks and stumbles to the bed. "Thank Merlin it's summer." And with that she drifted off to sleep.

Yes darlings, that's how I feel about every one of my chapters and stories. I've taken a long break from my longer fics and I'm very sorry for those of you who loved them- and I get tickled every time someone tells me they do- but they are not abandoned- if however someone wants to take over one of my fics you are very welcome to ask me in a review or a PM. I really don't like 'Challenges' as stories so I'm not going to post a story without an actual story.

Instead I'm going to post some story ideas I love but haven't gotten around to writing in case someone gets inspired:

Shaman King/Harry Potter Xover: There's a new applicant to become Shaman King- no one knows who he is except that he calls himself 'Riddle' and his spirit is a seemingly innocent and harmless human girl. He can interact with whoever you'd like and it can be from anybody's point of view. ('Riddle' is Harry) Harry/Ginny pairing but it doesn't have to be very inclusive to the story.

Harry Potter: Octavian Potter (Harry's great-grandfather) wasn't a light wizard. He is friends with Arcturus Black and follows Tom Riddle. He is visiting Grimuald Place when he gets overwhelmed with nausea and faints. He wakes up and thinks it's just a prank of Arcturus' but slowly finds out it's not. He is dark and can join Voldemort if you want.

Naruto: Sakura was always the weak one with too much heart. Her civilian parents are targeted when her mother becomes pregnant once more. While she is on a mission her family (mother, father) are massacred and she gets the news when she returns. This can either be SasuSaku or not but that seems like the most possible paring. She begins to train almost constantly and unlocks a kekkai genkai (most clans with strange colored hair have one- thus why she was targeted). Kick-a$$ kunoichi Sakura.

Harry Potter: Dumbledore admitted that while he doesn't make mistakes often the ones he do make are catastrophic- this is one of them. Voldemort's killing curse in the Forbidden Forest kills Harry instead of the horcrux. Must not be in first-person Harry's point of view- no one must know of the change until he is being gloated over by Voldemort.

Naruto: Orochimaru/Kabuto Slash- can be any time frame, the theme is 'Loyalty. And when I say loyalty I mean being loyal, not lack of loyalty.

Harry Potter/Wizard of Earthsea Xover: Harry learns wizardry in Roke, after disappearing from the Dursleys at the age of six, until he is seventeen- the wizarding world is in shambles once their letters went astray and no Harry Potter was found. Harry's true name and his use-name can be anything except for Harry. Dumbledore (or any other character) calls him back to their dimension. He is appalled at the blatant overuse of magic. Can have him join Voldemort or fight against him.

Death Note/The Crow Xover: It is said that when a person dies a crow carries their soul to the realm of the dead but sometimes, just sometimes, that soul won't move on. And sometimes the crow will bring that soul back to right what is wrong. Raye Pember comes back to life with all of the Crow's powers to avenge himself and Naomi. Kira had better watch out. (I ignore all abilities/weaknesses not expressed in the first movie but it's up to you. Also- you can choose that Light doesn't reveal himself to Raye on the bus if it works better for your story.)

Twilight/Harry Potter Xover: Everything Bella has seen in Forks, WA has been a- good, and very elaborate- lie. Vampires don't really exist and neither do werewolves. But what happens when a vicious werewolf pack actually moves into Forks and everything starts to come undone? Who cares about acting a part when their lives are on the line? And who got too into their role? Is Bella to enamored with a lie to realize it for what it is? (You can decide why they are tricking her and who- if anyone- from the wizarding world comes into the story. Can happen any time before she gets married).

Harry Potter: Harry was never born, his parents felt that it was too dangerous to have a kid during the war. Neville instead became the BWL- Neville cracks though and they eventually use a blood ritual to bring a savior in from another country/time/universe and they end up with another version of Harry- a muggle Harry story. He can be into martial arts or whatever but he can't have magic. Or be a squib.

Harry Potter/ Pokemon Xover: A young harry finds out about Pokemon through some kids at school. All he wants is a friend, just like them! Through a strange coincidence involving one of Ms. Figg's cats a near car-accident and a wish Harry somehow creates a Skitty! (You can decide on another feline-like pokemon I just chose the first one that popped into my head) Upon receiving his Hogwarts letter he learns of magic and wonders if he could make the other pokemon he read about. Pokemon Master!Harry

Harry Potter/D.Gray-Man Xover: When Sirius falls through the veil Harry is distraught. He acts basically the same as canon just less angry more sad. The Thousand Year Earl (Millennium Earl Whatever) comes to him with his offer. Harry accepts and Sirius is forced to attack him. Harry destroys the akuma he became with magic and the Earl leaves, understandably upset but not terribly worried. Harry meets with a member of the Black Order (your choice) and you decide where it goes from there.

Post Note I: I've started a create-a-cat on my forum (http://www.fanfiction.net/myforums/Jaysnow_Silverblaze/3788639/) This is purely for fun so don't immediately assume I'll be using the cats.

00.) Randomly list twelve of your favorite Fan-Fic characters:

1. Eric Draven (the crow)

2. Matt (death note)

3. Lestat (queen of the damned movie)

4. Third (jyu-oh-sei)

5. Jareth (labyrinth)

6. Bran (King Raven Trilogy)

7. Spook (Last Apprentice)

8. Jim (Treasure Planet)

9. Beka (Beka Cooper)

10. Shuto (Rat-man)

11. Jayne (Firefly)

12. Pein (Naruto)

01.) Have you ever read a Six/Eleven fanfic before? Bran/Jayne

0.0 I want to now. I'm looking it up riiiiight... now. T.T there aren't any crossovers at all.

02.)Do you think Four is hot? How hot? Third

Really really hot- I have a thing for guys with long hair

03.)What would happen if Twelve got Eight pregnant? Pein/Jim

Umm... not really sure. Jim would kill him- or try.

04.) Do you recall any fics about Nine? Can you recommend any? Beka

Not off the top of my head. She's a great character though.

05.) Would Two and Six make a good couple? Matt/Bran

Actually... they might. I mean other than the ridiculous time-skip they'd need to even meet. Matt always hangs around Mello so he's used to people being arrogant and it would help that Bran gets better. I think Bran would be a little exasperated with him though.

06.) Five/Nine or Five/Ten? Jareth/Beka or Jareth/Shuto

Wow... er... Beka would punch him... really hard. Shuto is very... short. Probably Jareth/Beka just because I can only imagine David Bowie with a girl.

07.) What would happen if Seven walked in on Two and Twelve having sex? Spook Matt/Pein

Close the door. Immediately. Then pace in the living room looking contrite then avoid them like the plague.

08.) Make up a summary for a Three/Ten fanfic. Lestat/Shuto

Ooh... hard. Let's see: "I am just a rat passing by." His catchphrase was met with silence and a breath whispered by his ear, "I only had rats available for years. I think you'd taste so much better." Shuto couldn't help the shiver that jolted down his spine.

09.)Is there any such thing as a One/Eight fluff fanfic? Eric/Jim

Hmm... yeah... if there was no romance involved then sure.

10.) Suggest a title for a Seven/Twelve Hurt/Comfort fic. Spook/Pein

Er... Crucify Myself? Or maybe It Even Hurts When You're Dead.

11.) What kind of plot would you use if you wanted Four to de-flower One? Third/Eric

Oh wow... umm... this is ridiculous... Third would probably have to get him before he even met Shelly but... well he's a manipulative wily bastard so I don't think there's anyone he couldn't charm the pants off of if he wanted to.

12.) Does anyone on your friends list read Seven slash? Spook

Er... not that I'm aware of. I don't for the record. I kinda see him as a-sexual or something (even though Meg exists)

13.) Does anyone on your friends list read Three het? Lestat

Probably. I've never asked.

14.) Does anyone on your friends list write or draw Eleven? Jayne

Not exclusively but he pops up frequently in all of my favorite firefly fan-fics

15.) Would anyone you know write Two/Four/Five? Matt/Third/Jareth

... I am speechless. I- no. I don't think anyone could come up with that... what would the plot even be??

16.) What might Ten scream at a moment of great passion? Shuto

Erm... their name? He's a kid. He doesn't know any better

17.) If you wrote a song-fic about Eight, what song would you choose? Jim

Huh... This is horrible but the only song I can think of right now is stuck in my head- Yo Ho Sebastian. Cute... ish.

18.) If you wrote a One/Six/Twelve fic, what would the warning be? Eric/Bran/Pein

Slash, Threesome, angst, blood

19.) What might be a good pick-up line for Ten to use on Two? Shuto/Matt

Haha- I'll let you check out the technology in my suit if you take it off for me.

20.) When was the last time you read a fic about Five? Jareth

Oh wow... a while ago. He was Harry Potter's father or grandfather or something. It was interesting

21.) What is Six's super-secret kink? Bran

uh... he's a masochist? Merian is always turning him down and he keeps going back

22.) Would Eleven shag Nine? Drunk or sober? Jayne/Beka

Yes. No need to be drunk he'd totally shag her. I don't know if she'd let him but he'd do it if she did.

23.) If Three and Seven got together, who would top? Lestat/Spook

ooh... choices choices...Lestat would be my first thought but Spook is very very proud sometimes. If it had to be one I'd say Lestat though.

24.) "One (Eric) and Nine (Beka) are in a happy relationship until Nine (Beka) suddenly runs off with Four (Third). One (Eric), broken-hearted, has a hot one-night stand with Eleven (Jayne) and a brief unhappy affair with Twelve (Pein), then follows the wise advice of Five (Jareth) and finds true love with Three (Lestat)." What title would you give this fic? Name three people on your friends list who might read it. Name one person who should write it

First of all- no. no no no no NO! Ahem. Title? Fighting Through Uncertainty. Three people? Umm... I don't know. I would if only to see how the author played it. Who should write it? Hmm... no idea.

25.) How would you feel if Seven/Eight was canon? Spook/Jim

I... it would really depend on how it was played but... eww?
