The Would-Have-Been Giant Hikago Meme of DOOM
Twenty-five questions. (That's five squared, so, er, :D?)

<b>1. Beginning with the obligatory question: how did you discover Hikago?</b> <b>2. Manga or anime?</b> <b>3. Describe your Hikago experience, whatever it might have been.</b> <b>4. Are you active in the fandom? What do you do?</b> <b>5. Have you participated in any of the Hikago challenge communities? (E.g. <lj user="blind_go">, <lj user="ihikago">, <lj user="hng_prompts">, <lj user="fifthmus">.)</b> <b>6. Who is your favorite character in the series?</b> <b>7. Why do you like him/her?</b> <b>8. Do you think this character likes those qualities about him-/herself?</b> <b>9. Who is this character's best friend (in your opinion)?</b> <b>10. What do they like about each other?</b> <b>11. Whom does your favorite character dislike most? (Doesn't necessarily have to be a Hikago character.)</b> <b>12. Why do you think that is?</b> <b>13. Who is your least favorite character?</b> <b>14. What do you not like about him/her?</b> <b>15. Imagine this scenario: your favorite character, the best friend, and the disliked person are stranded in a small cabin in the middle of the woods during a heavy snowstorm. They have nothing with them except what they were carrying during their mountain hike. Who dies first?</b> <b>16. Do you support any pairings? If yes, please list them here.</b> <b>17. Which pairing is your favorite?</b> <b>18. Why do you like this pairing?</b> <b>19. Is there any canon evidence for this pairing?</b> <b>20. What do you think they see in each other? What makes their relationship work (or not work)?</b> <b>21. Could their relationship survive something catastrophic (e.g. separation over long distances/time, infidelity, unexpected pregnancy, Touya Kouyo's disapproval, etc.)?</b> <b>22. In your opinion, does the Hand of God exist, and can it be achieved?</b> <b>23. Assuming that it does exist and can be achieved: Which character do you think will find it first?</b> <b>24. Assuming that it does not exist and cannot be achieved: Which character is most likely to die trying?</b> <b>25. Now make up your own question and answer it:</b>

"Why?" you ask?

Because I can. \:D/

I've written happier fics. :|

(I've also written much shorter fics. Nothing like imminent DEATH BY PIANO RECITAL for making me feel creative LOLLOL. *headdesk*)

Concrit greatly welcomed. I'm...not too certain about the characterization in this one.


Title: A Thin Line Between
Characters: Yanagi Renji, Inui Sadaharu (not really Data Pair, but if you want to pretend...)
Genre: Drama
Rating: G
Wordcount: ~4,200

Summary: Reality is never simple -- telling the truth is never easy -- no matter how hard Renji may wish otherwise.

( He has always been good at differentiating between dreams and reality. )

A/N: I-I apologize for all the stupidly blatant Lit references. But. Um. I needed them to make the story more comprehensible? Sort of. Not really... Er.

ETA: meganezilla drew some beautiful, beautiful Renji fanart for the fic! ♥

Originally written for bloodyapplepi because she was craving TakaFuji. Re-posted here because I'm OCD I wanted to make a minor edit. And also because I haven't posted any TakaFuji since, like, the beginning of last year. >>;

Please forgive the title. I couldn't think of anything else.


Title: Special
Characters: Kawamura/Fuji
Genre: General/Romance
Rating: G
Wordcount: 350

( Taka-san is nice to everyone. )

This is a remix of Testimony (which was never completed) and Turning Point (which just didn't feel "complete" to me). I think it's pretty obvious that I've gone through several distinct phases in my writing, and I didn't really do any major tweaking, so apologies if the story seems a bit fragmented.

(And no, I haven't finalized the title yet. Don't be surprised if it suddenly changes again.)


Title: Follow After
Characters: Shishido/Ohtori
Genre: Romance/Fluff
Rating: G
Wordcount: ~1,600

Summary: Things change -- and not always for the worse.

( Choutarou's first impression of Shishido Ryou was that the other boy wasn't a very nice person. )

Some of you may already have seen an earlier draft of this fic, which was written almost two years ago. I kept saying I would finish it one day, and now I have, finally. Nothing spectacular, but I'm just glad to be done with it after all this time. :P

Anyway, I'd better shut up before the A/N becomes longer than the actual fic.


Title: Point A to Point B
Characters: Sanada, Rikkai
Genre: General
Rating: G
Wordcount: ~1,300

Summary: Even they had a beginning.

( Sanada Gen'ichirou returned home after his first week at Rikkaidai Fuzoku with every intention of transferring out of that school as quickly as possible. )

Title: Mother to Son
Characters: Yukimura and his mother
Genre: General/Drama
Rating: G
Wordcount: ~4,000
Summary: Through all these years, through everything, you will always love him.

( Life, you believe, exists because of love. )

From the blind_go round 4 IOU’s (yes, it’s been a while, I know): for ungalad, who wanted "something like Mitani and Kaneko going out on a 'date'".

I’m sorry it took me so long to finally write this! I'm also not sure if this was what you had in mind. I took some liberties with the interpretation of the prompt. Hope it's still okay. ^^;


Title: Not Like That
Characters: Kaneko/Mitani
Genre: General (very, very light romance)
Rating: G
Wordcount: 825
Summary: They were not like everyone else.

( If only Mitani had had enough sense to keep his mouth shut... )

ATTACHMENT THERAPY: A SEARCH FOR SURVIVORS.

A compatriot and good friend of mine has begun work on a blog for survivors of Attachment Therapy, also referred to as Holding Therapy or Rage Reduction. This is a brutal and sometimes fatal form of abuse masquerading as psychiatric treatment. There's next to nothing out there for children and adults who have undergone it, in part because it's a relatively new "technique". Attachment therapy promises quick fixes and firm results and creates lasting scars instead.

This is child abuse, sanctioned and committed by so-called professionals and funded by insurance companies. It is child abuse, and there is plenty of documentation that it can easily end in murder.

If you'd like more details about what Attachment Therapy involves, and some of these are graphic, you can visit the blog. If you can't cope, or don't want to, I don't care. You don't have to read it, though I think you should. What matters is making this public. And that, honestly, means getting that blog as public as humanly possible.

So read it or don't read it, but please post the link and title on your journal. Some parent's going to be told they should send their child to Attachment Therapy and they're going to get on Google and try to research it, or their friends or family are. Some survivor is going to start struggling with their experiences and look for help, and they'll get on Google too. The above-linked blog should be the first link anyone sees when they search for Attachment Therapy. I believe this without reservation.

Meme stolen from aiwritingfic:

The thing is, when people look for stories, they always make it sound like badfic. Now, often that's because it really is badfic, but sometimes it's good and they just suck at describing the story.

So, your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to summarize badly any one (or more!) of my stories and I'll try to guess which it is. You could even pretend you don't remember the pairing or fandom to make it harder to guess.

Anything found here or under the fanfiction tag is fair game. ^^

What time is it? It's fic rec time! \:D/

Sponsored by the ever lovely caelestin over at myutagenic. ♥

Link above goes to my thread. Show me some love? :D

I really should be studying, but, um, hahaha. Whoops.

Been reading too many WWII documents (again). I wasn't trying to write historical AU, but... You can interpret it however you want.


Title: Lullaby
Characters: Fuji, Eiji; mentions of Yuuta and Yumiko
Genre: General/AU
Rating: G
Wordcount: ~900

Summary: In the darkest hour before dawn, we remember those whom we have loved.

( There was a silly little lullaby that Yumiko used to sing. )

Out of curiosity:

Poll #1116505 A question of great importance (maybe)!

Would you be interested in reading Yanagi/Niou fic?

More recs! Because I spent the day reading instead of studying. Eh heh. Trying not to think about the history midterm coming up in two days...

Happy new year, everyone!

I have no fic for the new year, so, um. Let me give you some fic recs instead? :D

**I realize that I tend to rec the same authors over and over again. I'm very sorry! Um. I'm trying to read more, but usually I just don't have the time. It's easier to stick with what I know is good, you know? *shuffles feet*

Title: Morning
Character(s): Shirota/Adachi
Genre: General/Fluff
Rating: G

Summary: He hated waking up in the morning.

( Shirota always woke with the sun in his eyes. )

I began writing this in June, and for a while it looked as if I would never get it done. The fic still didn't quite turn out quite right, but I can't figure out where it went wrong, either.

...It made sense in my head.

Title: A Far Blue Sky
Characters: Yukimura, Yanagi; Rikkai
Genre: General/Drama
Rating: G
Wordcount: just over 3,000

Summary: Things have to get worse before they can get better.

( When Seiichi finally returned to school, Gen'ichirou was obviously relieved, though he tried (unsuccessfully) to hide the fact that he had been worried at all. )

For juudenkanryou, very belatedly. I said I was going to write you TezuFujiSae back...in August or something. ^^; Sorry it's so short!

Title: Strange Relationship
Characters: Tezuka/Fuji/Saeki
Genre: General/Romance
Rating: G
Summary: Ignoring a problem has never made it go away.

( Tezuka knows that Fuji likes Saeki. Saeki knows that Fuji likes Tezuka )
