Ricochet has Fanart! : Fanart by Kaara , 2 (tumblr: thirteenths) Lems, 2, 3(deviantart)


5/15/12

I'm almost done. Yes, really this time.

10/5/12

Working on all of what remains of Ricochet. I think the post order will be Main ending>Tengoku>Jigoku>Jigoku epilogue. Obviously that means the canon ending will be posted first, but I will try to post Tengoku and Jigoku at the same time. Epilogue will probs be 2 weeks after I post those.

7/3/12

Happy Birthday to the sexiest Hyuuga there ever was. Mr. Neji gqmfgonnaruinyourfavoritepanties Hyuuga.

(I've always found Neji attractive, but since writing Ricochet Neji has become extra-sexy)

6/28/12

I gave in to the call of Tumblr: RenegadeRoyale

6/23/12

Sidenote: Ricochet is going to hit the 100k words mark by it's end. This is a big deal to me!

6/21/12

Also, you may have noticed that Sky Full of Pigs is no longer up. You may thank the user MrGoodyTwoShoes for flagging it for removal. What ever happened to people minding their own business?

...and somewhere in my long-standing fight with inspiration, Ricochet hit 100 faves!

4/20/12 -- Can we talk ships for just a sec?

Okay, I don't usually do this, but I HAVE to vent. I'm just having so many ATLA feels right now. I mean, specifically, I'm seeing cross-fandom parallels that are eating up my heart. So you know I don't do normal ships and I'm so pro-Zutara that my ship is a submarine. Well it hit me today why I don't like Sokka. He is the Xander of ATLA. I just...don't appreciate him nearly as much as I do the other characters, really. And then Katara is totally Buffy and Zuko is most definitely Spike and them together is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. I even see a little Drusilla in Azula. But I think the only things I like Sokka for are how much he loves his sister and the YueSokkaSuki thing. I like SokkaYue like I liked CordeliaXander, and while Suki's okay...eh. She's no Anya. SokkaSuki leaves me indifferent, I feel nothing for it. And omg, can we talk about Jetara for a second here? I love it SO much. If anything (and I can't believe I'm saying this) Jetara is a direct parallel to BuffyAngel. And I LOATHE Bangel, for the record, but it's a near perfect comparison for reasons too long to put here. And just my personal opinion, I really think TophAang could have been as great as FaithWesley would have been if given the chance. Just saying.

4/17/12

Just hit 100 alerts!

3/31/12

Would it be vain of me to say that the changes in the Neji/Ino relationship in Ricochet are beautiful? I just wrote a scene in ch 19 where it's so apparent (to me, anyway) how far they've come and it just gives me this Proud Mama feeling, lol.

8/2/11

Dear Janshin-sama: Thank you for giving me your favor. Obviously you love me since I have just received TWO fanarts in one day. I must have done something great in a past life (I must have sacrificed a lot of people) Seriously though, I'm gonna print them out 'cause they're that awesome that I need to see them even when I'm offline :D

2/28/11 -- Important Announcement!

I have just made the biggest fuckup in my fanfic writing life. I overrode a chapter without saving. I'm incredibly stupid and very very sorry to all of my readers. Chapter 5 of Ricochet has somehow been replaced by ch6 and I don't have ch5 on my harddrive anymore to re-upload it. I don't remember half of what I wrote either, so I'm extremely sorry to all my readers -- those who've been reading from the beginning and those who are just starting and may never know what happened in a whole chapter. (I mean, there's no way I could do that Hinata/sakura fight again so perfectly. It's all gone! -bawls-) I will keep writing the story, but it may never be fixed. Again, I profusely apologize!

Ricochet ch5 is up.

It occurred to me quite randomly that perhaps it's about time I added an About Me section to my profile, lol. So here it is. I'm college-aged, if you were wondering. Practically a hikikomori, by choice, not by fear or anything. I got into the Naruto and Bleach fandoms because of an exboyfriend back in 2005, so you guys have that Teme to thank for all my Naruto and Bleach related writings. I think it's obvious who my favorite characters are, and even more obvious that I prefer crack to cannon. Surprisingly, if you asked me, I'd probably tell you my favorite manga is either Shoujo Kakumei Utena or Rurouni Kenshin. I have quite the personal library -- both manga and fiction novels - and though it's not as extensive as a more hardcore anime fan's would be, it boasts quite a variety. I speak/read/write intermediate Japanese. I have been to Japan. I've only been to one anime convention, but I'd like to go again someday and actually cosplay. I love all my readers :) And while some stories may take longer than others to update, I solemnly promise to always finish my fics (or delete and re-start) I have far too many stories on my own alert list that haven't been updated since 2007 and likely will never be finished, so knowing that kind of starving hope, I'll never do that to you guys!

My character obsessions: Gaara, Touga Kiryuu, Hatake Kakashi, Zaraki Kenpachi, Ohtori Akio, Hyuuga Neji, Tennou Haruka, Kuchiki Byakuya, Himura Kenshin, Yamanaka Ino, Aino Minako, Nara Shikamaru, William "the Bloody" Pratt/Spike, Tsukino Usagi, Hirako Shinji, Jiraiya, Kou Seiya, Uchiha Itachi, Zuko

Favorite fanfic quotes (since so many of my faves are disappearing from this site):

"I was waiting for the right time to tell you, but it never came, like I always knew it wouldn't." -- Sideshow, Moonorchid

"...isn't sure when he went from hoping they would find their perfect time to realizing that time has passed them by." -- What Remains, Sintari

"In the end, Sasuke still had time, and Itachi's had run out." -- Sacrifice, xxxAkira-chanxxx

"They killed Shisui on a day so beautiful that all the part's of Madara's spirit woke themselves up simply to say they were alive." -- Shoreless, coincident

"Each face he wears is technically true; the explaination for the sum of his behaviors just becomes more complicated." -- Simplification, Luc Court

"There he was, hand in hand with his first love…but staring after his second." -- If Only, DamageCtrl

"He meets her gaze, and for the last time, he is an open book to her. This is the final page." -- Til Death, Forever2Never

"I told you a hundred times how I felt. Are you going to try and blame me because you needed to hear it a hundred and one times?" -- A Matter of Bad Timing, lord of the land of fire

"And from that instant she was the infinite sky, forbidden by the impossible." -- Azul de Ciel, Lala.Password
