I never had one of these before. Feel free to regard this as an off-topic post for you to drop by and tell me random stuff at any point in time. Want to squeal with me over something? Want to lob some plotbunnies at me? Need to contact me? Want to tell me more about yourself? Here's your post! You can also use <lj-spoiler> </lj-spoiler> if you happen to want to discuss spoiler'ish stuff with me.

I've noticed that there a number of people on my friends of list that I don't know. I friend back as long as we've interacted before, and you tell me you're friending me. I figured that I probably didn't have an easy way for people to do that before. Feel free to use this post to introduce yourself if you want! I really don't bite. :3;;

This post will stay at the top of my journal. Scroll down for actual updates!

Fire Emblem Awakening, Knights of Iris GET! As well as several other purchases. |D;;



I dropped by my bookstore to buy some manga since there was a 20% sale~. I special ordered Knights of Iris and the Ginga e Kickoff fanbook last month, but they never contacted me to tell me whether they were processing my order or not (and I never followed up on it). I went to the store and asked, and what do you know, the books had already arrived. XD; (I didn't even know they processed my order!!)

Knights of Iris has been out of stock everywhere, so I'm really happy I finally have a copy now. XD; I was hoping for an English release since this artbook includes all of the support conversations and endings (and I'd love to have an English version of that) but then I read the Japanese supports and really adored those too (especially the original Henry x Olivia conversations) so I guess having the Japanese version isn't bad either!

Along with the artbook, I picked up Horimiya v1-2 and Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama. My* (masculine) and My* (feminine) boyfriend. So happy to see Horimiya on the shelf!! I also saw the original Hori-san to Miyamura-kun, the 4-koma version by HERO, but I like the art in the Horimiya version more. |D;; Miyamura is just really adorable in this version. As for Ore to Atashi no Kareshi-sama, it is a genderbender, body-swap manga. XD;; I just love this trope too much.

I am actually watching quite a list this season (for me, at least!) Listed in the order they air (Monday first). The question now is if I will be able to keep up. This is around the time when I start falling behind. XD;

Before this season started, I had my eye on Arata Kangatari and Karneval. I ended up not following Karneval (perhaps I'll catch up at a later date...), and Arata Kangatari is only so-so. I don't know how I ended up watching all these other series... and three mecha? What in the world... (I don't even like mecha all that much! But perhaps my tastes are changing.) I'm also belatedly watching Uta no Prince-sama and No. 6.

( Arata Kangatari, Hataraku Maou-sama, Ginga Kikoutai Majestic Prince, Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru, Devil Survivor 2, Chihayafuru, Kakumeiki Valvrave, Uchuu Kyoudai, Ore no Imouto wa Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai, Shingeki no Kyoujin, Suisei no Gargantia, Uta no Prince-sama, No 6Collapse )

One way to make me super giddy and roll around all over the place is to do derivatives of my writing. I may be grinning too stupidly to do anything after this. =P (All right, must direct this giddiness towards writing the fic!)

Fandom: The Legend of Sun Knight

A few days late, but it was Yu Wo's birthday on 4/29, so she finished writing When Teacher Wasn't Teacher Part 3 and posted that. Here it is! She also received some birthday art which she posted in the same post. First pic features our 3 Sun Knights (37th, 38th, and 39th gen) and our 3 Judgment Knights drawn by J.U. Second pic features Sun and Charles from No Hero drawn by Neko Kreuz. Basically our current two official artists for LSK. XD;

J.U. is hard at work with drawing for the new edition of LSK. I wonder if this means we'll see volume 2 soon. *___*

I've started reading Key of the Sunken Moon, which is another famous Taiwanese light novel, but so far I haven't gotten into it yet. Hope I'll end up liking the characters, since it's usually the characters in a story that win me over. :3;;

Fanime is this month (so soon!), so I really have to get started on my cosplay! Not much time left. I'll be cosplaying Henry from Fire Emblem: Awakening. I might also rewear Bossun from SKET Dance, and I might do a brief stint as Kirihara from Prince of Tennis (U-17 version), though I need to fix my wig... Dang, all guys this time? Not sure how that happened, haha. Recently, it's been fairly hot, so I'm already regretting choosing Henry. Long sleeves, plus that cape, which is black... *dies* Usually, it's never this warm in May. =/

Title: This is Your Wake Up Call
Fandom: The Legend of Sun Knight
Words: 1,815
Summary: Judgment would rather not wake up than the alternative. AU of v5c6. Angst.

I started reading Haikyuu. 8D

Title: Don't Call Me King
Fandom: Haikyuu!
Words: 1,161
Summary: "Don't call me that." "Why not? King sounds so much cooler than getting called the strongest decoy!" A short Kageyama character study.
Notes: For 31_days, May 1, ignoring all the voices from my wall. Just rehashing canon here, so nothing new really...

( Read more...Collapse )

I will be attempting several of 31_days' May themes (but not all of them), and I'll also be doing some other various oneshots. Am just trying to get back into more spontaneous writing. (Watch, the rest all turn out to be LSK...)

I haven't posted any fic in April? Time to change that!

Title: Bittersweet Sweetness Part 30
Fandom: The Legend of Sun Knight
Words: 1,854
Summary: Instead of receiving a brooch that dresses him in an assassin's clothes, Sun receives a trinket that switches his consciousness around with Judgment's. Now, Judgment must find out the mystery behind the Death Knight in Sun's stead. Problem is, imitating Sun's poor swordsmanship is no easy feat, and who knew what Sun was doing with Judgment's body in the meantime? Alternate telling of the end of volume 1 of the novels.
Notes: The fic lives and refuses to end yet again! Somewhat of a transitional chapter.

Translations for both Bittersweet Sweetness and Behind Closed Doors are now up to date! I better get back to finishing Bittersweet

♥ Dulzura Agridulce
En lugar de recibir un broche que lo disfrace de asesino, Sol recibe un dije que hace que intercambie cuerpos con Juicio. Ahora, Juicio debe descifrar el misterio tras el Caballero de la Muerte en lugar de Sol. El problema es que imitar la pobre esgrima de Sol no es nada fácil, ¿y quién podría decir lo que estaba haciendo Sol con el cuerpo de Juicio, mientras tanto?

♥ A Puerta Cerrada
Cuando Sol pasó frente al cuarto de oración, escuchó unos sonidos muy... sospechosos. (Sol x Adair x Juicio)

Also, levy120 did a podfic of Enemy Territory~. Such a cute voice! :)

♥ Enemy Territory
Nine year old Phoenix clutched his teacher's hand tightly as she led him down the hallway. Coming here was like entering enemy territory! Phoenix tries to make an ally out of his classmate Edgeworth. These are Phoenix's first impressions of Edgeworth.

I've been trying to write a Bakuman oneshot, but I'm getting really stuck with it even though it should just be a simple thing... I think I'll return to Bittersweet for now and poke at it later... (And of course when I get stuck with one fic, I get bombarded with ideas for new fics... OTL. Go away, plunnies, I can't take care of you right now!)
