********IMPORTANT NOTE**********:
Since I only go on dA with my school's computers now after what I dub now as the "virus incident", I am not on dA as much as I used to be and when winter break starts in a couple of days, I won't be on here at all until class starts up again in January.

All my writings are currently on hiatus to the overwhelming stress of finals and such. I am unsure of when I will be able to resume writing. I will probably not post any new art on here until the new year. And by that time, I will probably have quite a bit to post.

-------------------------------------------------------------

I will be particpating in Tales Ficathon on Livejournal [link] (Format Guidelines -> [link] ). I have claimed these prompts:

Destiny - Leon and Hugo - a cold life at home *100% done, I will post it when I come up with a title*

Abyss, Destiny - Hugo/Van - "How to be an amazing pedo in [number here] easy steps~", or anything to that effect, really. Bonus if there's a cowering Leon/Luke somewhere in there. *Man, I am almost done after struggling to find the time to work on it.*

Abyss - Jade/Guy - going blind (either literally or figuratively, it's up to you)
= "My Beloved Plutus" -> [link]

**************Due to my old computer being infected by a virus, I was unable to upload the Leon and Hugo prompt in time but in the future when I have the time, I fully intend on uploading it. As for the Hugo/Van prompt, I had planned to finish it when my computer ended up being infected. I have been busy right now and haven't had the time to really work on it. But when I do get the time, I plan to finish it and post it. And so my other fanfiction ideas below are also on hiatus.*************************

-------------------------------------------------------------

Fanfiction Ideas
[Not that I will necessarily write them all but this is an easy way to keep track of my ideas...Gah, so many interesting ideas but very little time avaliable to write :/ ]

(Lunar) Dyne x Ghaleon. My own take on the life of Dyne and Ghaleon before the events of Silver Star (essentially, I will be tossing the manga away for the most part rather than draw from that as inspiration as I had originally planned). Then after that, there will be my own version of the events of Silver Star (following the original more so than the remake due to certain details that were changed in the remake that I preferred what happened in the original). *started writing despite not finishing the Hugo/Van prompt yet*

(Tales of the Abyss/Tales of Destiny) Sequel to "Turning the Tables". VanxHugo fanfic. *started but its priority ranks after the last Ficathon prompt and the Lunar fanfic idea*

(Tales of the Abyss) Sequel to "My Beloved Plutus". Jade x Guy fanfic featuring literallyblind!Jade.

(Tales of the Abyss) "God General Jade" (working title). To be a Jade x Dist fanfic. What would happen if Jade had become a God General? How much would his relations with the other characters change?

(Tales of the Abyss) "Untitled". Jade x Dist. (working summary -> ) A child unexpectedly falls into Jade and Dist's care. How will it affect their relationship? After some thinking, I decided to not make it a sequel to "Another Chance" as I like the ending of it to be kept open-ended.

(Tales of Vesperia) Estelle x Rita yuri. AU based on Nam Cobanda play.

(Tales of Vesperia) AU. "A Vesperian Fairytale" The kingdoms of Zaphias, Dahngrest, and Vesperia are united in a truce against the kingdom of Adephagos, that has aimed to seize control of their lands. A wandering seer foretold that they would target the unborn male heir of Vesperia and so King Jade Curtiss raises his son Yuri as a princess. And under those pretenses, he is to be promised to Prince Harry of Dahngrest. However, Yuri grows sick of life in the castle and in his wanderings ends up in the strange kingdom of Entelexeia. DukexYuri light yaoi crackfic of sorts. *Started but is on hiatus. Will possibily return to after making an outline of the plot and completing the above projects.*

Couples that my muse wants me to write but their priority is very very low: Schneizel x Kanon and Neuro x Yako. Also, one day, I had the urge to continue my original fic "Otaku-Sensei", which if I ever continue writing it, will eventually be yuri.

UPDATE: 10月 4日 09年

I know this is thinking way too far in advance but when I hopefully go to Japan in my junior year, these are the things that I will be looking for to buy:

A kimono or yukata. Probably get it from a thrift store as kimono and yukata can be pretty expensive.

Tales of Destiny Director's Cut Manga. It's serialized in Degenki Maoh (Media Works) but it also came out in volume form, which is what I will be searching for. [link]

(A Maybe Item) Tales of the Abyss: Tsuioku no Jade in Kadokawa Shoten's Asuka magazine. [link]

DOUJINSHI:

Code Geass: a Schneizel x Kanon doujinshi

Tales of Destiny: anything Hugo and/or Lion related

Tales of the Abyss: Jade x Dist is priority as it's so rare to come by. Though Jade x Peony and any Keterburg group doujinshi would be good too.

Tales of Vesperia: Flynn x Yuri, Duke x Yuri, and/or anything with Duke in it.

Lunar: Dyne x Ghaleon. This might be an impossible find but I am going to keep my eyes out for it.

I going to be saving up money from my job on campus for this stuff though I decided that I will probably be going to Tekkoshocon VIII [link] as well so I need money for that too. But I am not going to bring as much money as I did last year. I am looking at $200 for the dealer's room and about $70 for admissions and food. Maybe...I am not totally sure yet.

So this past weekend, I finally purchase myself a new Windows 7 computer after a virus crashed my precious old one. I have it running smoothly for the most part though I need to work on installing my printer as when I initially tried to install it, it was giving me an error. That means, even if I found a way to submit something, I can't yet.

Also, I can't watch anything on Youtube yet as my version of Windows 7 does not support Adobe Flash yet. Blah.

Like I said before, I am avoiding going on dA using my new computer as I am still very paranoid about what happened to it.

By the way, I got an A- on my Japanese oral interview. I am shocked.
