ATTENTION!! Writer is now officially on HIATUS! Sorry guys, but I don't have the time to write anything at the moment 'cause I'm studying for my trials that's within two months and I need all the time I can get fot that. Hmm ... I'll even addmit my last chapter had seemed a bit rushed 'cause I was a bit stressed. Well, I'll try better next time, but the next chapter would probably not be up until ... well, my last exam is on 11th November, so I guess late November? Somewhere around there. Thanks again for all the kind reviews!

05/24

Hey all, I finally updated! Wohoo! Probably because it's two days after my birthday that I'm in such a good mood, enough for me to finish the chapter. AND I just found out I'm in the top ranks for one of my usually-dud subjects! Yeah! I feel so happy compared to all the stuff that's been happening in the past few months. Hopefully the next chapter would be faster, so wish me luck!

05/01

Err ... well, holidays are over and I ... sort of ... noticed that I still haven't posted the next chapter. Well, I ... sort of ... have an excuse. See, I've been trying to do a little more research and I found out a few interesting things about kitsune, white ones in particular, so you can see that would definitely affect the story somewhat in terms of Kurama's character structure. Which then made me rewrite the chapter and ... well, if you're wondering, it's labelled 'Chapter 5(h)' ... That's right, it's my seventh rewrite of that one chapter. Damn, this is going nowhere ... no to mention the fact that I've already been given two assessment tasks on the second day of school ... I'm screwed.

04/18

(peeks out from behind the desk before diving back under to evade the hundreds of rotten tomatoes thrown her way) I'm so, so, so sorry! I've been so busy lately (holding a surprise party is no easy task) and recently being hooked on another fandom (Gakuen Alice rocks!), I've been getting more and more distracted. Not only that, but I got bitten by another plot bunny and now my mind is all muddled up because I don't want to forget the idea nor do I want to neglect TMW. (sniff) And now my sister has left me to my own devices so I have no one to rant to! Damn the cruelty of life ... Anyways, I'm a little stumped with the current chapter (remember I said that I wasn't satisfied with it?) but hopefully I'll get my groove back on and be able to post it by the end of holidays. Oh, and thank you to those who enjoyed 'Lost in Translation'. I'm really glad that you enjoyed it!

User Details

Name: Jenny

Gender: Female

Occupation: Senior high school student

Type of Writer: Empathist/Crossover

A Little about Myself: I am, first and foremost, an aspired music composer and am currently co-composing music with my sister for her band. However, I would also like to be either an author or a sociologist so, as you can see, I'm in a bit of a pickle at the moment. Of course, I wouldn't mind doing all three at once, but then I'd be within moments of getting caught in a straight jacket, dragged by those lovely guys in white coats. Ah ... the beauty of life.

"Sometimes the most precious things in life are the things you create with your own hands. Sometimes, the most enlightening thing in life is the ability to make others smile along with you.

Fanart

YAY! Someone drew fanart for my story!

... Ok, I forced her. Sue me.

Anyways, she's friend of mine and a way better artist than me so I asked her if she could draw the new Koenma in 'The Misinterpreted Warning'. Thankfully, she said yes and I quite like how it turned out. Of course, in the story Koenma is only recently introduced so not much is known about him, even his 'older form' description, so it's basically a tinsy little spoiler in how Koenma looks like 'older'.

Here's the link: The New Koenma

Stories Under Construction

The Misinterpreted Warning

Summary: (YYH x HxH x HP) With the rebirth of a dangerous enemy, the newest Reikai Tantei team has to infiltrate the wizardry community to prevent a prophecy from fulfilling. Due to their short numbers, the King of Reikai reassigns their predecessors to join them to ensure the balance of the world once again.

Status: Prologue and Chapter 1-5 published. Chapter 6 on the way.

Notes: I need betas! Even I know I suck at writing, so ... pretty please?

Possible Stories to be Published

Circumstances

Summary: (GA x Nar) A small technical glitch lands certain people of Alice Academy into another universe! What they don't realise is that they are going to make a much more impact on the residents of Konoha, and even the entire shinobi world, than they thought.

Status: The idea has only recently been developed so not much progress.

Notes: Phew! I finally thought of a summary! This is my new idea! I know that Gakuen Alice (surprisingly) doesn't receive a lot of publicity (even in Japan) so I'm going to try and let others realise that it isn't 'just-another-manga/anime' by connecting it with Naruto. And believe me when I say there are a lot of connections. Anyways, if you want to read any good Gakuen Alice stories, search up the author 'November Romeo' (or, if you're lazy, go to my favourite authors) and read any of his/her stories. Definitely an inspiration.

Summary: Twelve days exploring twelve different relationships with twelve different adventures until they all join together for Christmas. Canon pairings. Based on manga.

Status: Outline written. Chapter 1-2 completed. Starting on Chapter 3.

Notes: I'm going to try to aim for completing this before December 13th since that's twelve days before Christmas and I want to post each chapter daily. The relationships would be Yusuke/Keiko, Kurama & Shiori, Kuwabara/Yukina, Yusuke & Genkai, Keiko & Botan, Hiei & Kurama, Yusuke & Atsuko, Hiei/Mukuro, Yukina & Genkai, Kuwabara & Shizuru, Hiei & Yukina and Koenma & Botan in that respective order. The only pairing in there that might not be a canon would be Hiei/Mukuro, but I read somewhere that Yoshihiro intended for them to be together, so ... I don't know, I'll just say it is and it would be light anyways. Then there's also the Kuwabara/Yukina pairing ... I think I'll make it one-sided like how the manga intended. The most difficult to write would most likely be the Genkai relationships.

Oh, and for those you who are superstitious, thirteen is only an unlucky number in western culture. The unlucky numbers in Japan are four and nine.

Notice!: I don't have time to write this at the moment due to exams, so I would more than likely post it in 2009. Sorry for those who wanted to read it. Besides, the days that I write for each chapter would match the days in 2009 anyways, so it'll avoid unnecessary confusion.

Battle for the Title

Summary: (YYH x YGO) The King of Thieves vs ... the King of Thieves? Its the showdown between Youko Kurama and Yami Bakura! Oneshot.

Status: Draft half-written.

Notes: Hehe ... a showdown between Kurama and Yami Bakura. Unfortunately, what I have written so far mainly consists of verbal combat (AKA arguing). I really need to practise writing about physical combat if I even hope to make TMW a somewhat good read. Sigh, I should read more too.

(Untitled as of yet)

Summary: (HxH x Nar) "Hang on, who are you and why do you sound like Naruto?" Oneshot.

Status: Draft partly written.

Notes: I got this idea when I found out that Takeuchi Junko-san voiced both Gon and Naruto. It'll be set sometime after the Chimera Arc (even though it isn't finished) for Hunter x Hunter and between the Wave Country mission and Chunin Exam for Naruto ... well, either that or an Alternate Timeline. And yes, it is a humor story.
