*sniggers* That's seriously sick...pointless but sick. If I'd gotten that review, I'm not sure what I would have done (after I was done blinking and thinking, "what the fuck?"). &nsbp; &nsbp;Probably keep it up just to disturb others.

For Evil Labs: Eh, actually i have no idea what the point of Ju-on 2 was. I mean the first half-hour, fourty-five minutes of the movie was the last half-hour, fourty-five minutes of the first movie. And then there was weirdness, lots of weirdness, basically Kayako and her daughter causing mass chaos to anyone who so much looks at the goddamned house. There was some nifty imagery, but no plot whatsoever.

What's really strange for me is that I have no problem writing fanfiction, it seems I have an overabundance of plot bunnies, but I can never get anywhere with OCs. I don't know what this says about me as a writer. Plots and situations aren't really a problem, it's just the characters. I can never think of anyone truly fleshed out. They're like ghosts or phantoms and I hate that because of my obsession for exploring characters and their development. So what the fuck is wrong with me? Maybe I'm just trying too hard or being too impaitent with my muses?

Got XII off reserve this afternoon. Haven't played it yet, but I watched my bf start his game. It's very pretty and looks interesting, tho the combat system looks a bit disorganized to me, but that's just first glance.

Blah, did nothing for the holiday other than watch Ju-on and Ju-on 2 on AZN. I always forget the costume and it's no fun since my boyfriend won't dress up with me. Kinda kills it for me, thinkin' about dressing up like Integra or Reno or whatever without someone to share in my crazy ideas.

Sometimes I feel like that when it comes to a fandom. It's like I can only go so far with it before I feel like I'm repeating myself or have exhausted every little idea in my head for said fandom/pairing/whatever. But I can always write, whether it's fanfiction, or some kind of quasi-philosophical rant. I kinda need to or I get a little crazy. Gods help me if I fill up my notebooks before I get a chance to buy more. I've been known to write entire chapters on napkins in a fit of "oh-my-god-I-need-to-get-this-outta-my-head" madness.

Right on. The longer the better. *sniggers* More it makes sense with the protest.

Ah yes, true. I'll think about that. It's been awhile since I got my ears peirced and I haven't gotten any other peircings since. I'm not fond of pain or needles (I know, they use machines that make it quicker these days but...I don't know. I'd prolly still freak out).

God, I wish I could get rid of a certain story but sadly it was co-written with another author that I've since lost contact with and anyway I'd have to contact the site's admin.... Too much work. Then again, it's kind of nice to see the evolution of my writing, even if it makes me want to hang myself.

Oh good god. What the fuck? Some people shouldn't be allowed to put pen to paper. That's almost as bad as yaoi badfic writers' amazing lubricating assholes. Anyway thanks, I was almost entirely sure that it was indeed a week but I wanted to make double sure.

I free write as well, but I do have advice for people who do the same or wish to try to experiment in that sort of thing. I've found that giving every little idea in my head a voice leads to a lot of unfinished stories. So really, when you're bitten by a plot bunny, feel free to feed it but don't feel like you need to bring it home with you. I wish I'd learned that sooner. A lot of the thoughts I'd had would have made a better one-shot or single scene rather than...Some drawn out story that i ended up ditching anyway.

I am realizing that if a writer tries hard enough, any character can be emo-ed. <---look irony!

cookies?

I used to know this but I seem to have forgotten. How long until after the tongue is peirced before it's...um...usable again for sex-type activities. I can't recall if the wait period is a few days or at least a week. *sighs* For the record, it's not really for me, just something I'm toying with for a story (and for a smart-assed remark at that. I'm nothing if not thorough I guess. ).

Sex scenes are very hard to write, simply because it's a balancing act of emotion and sexuality. Too much or either can seriously ruin a scene. The best advice I can give anyone when it comes to erotica and fanfiction is to know the characters before getting them in bed with each other. There's nothing worse than reading Sesshoumaru talking dirty in the middle of a lemon (something I really don't imagine him doing) or Kagome being a sexual acrobat on the night she loses her virginity. That kind of shit can ruin a scene faster than anything else when it comes to writing smut for your chosen fandom.

Oh! You have that going for you too? I mean, seeing changes in writing in a fairly short amount of time? Most of my older InuYasha fics, which really are only about a year and half ago, are perfectly terrible, imo. Too much pressure to please everyone, I think.

Oh yeah...It wasn't my first fanfiction attempts (all of those have been lost to time ), but oh lordy, was it bad. I used to post Velvet Goldmine fanfiction on a site called Pretty Boys. Back then I was just getting into my boysmut addiction and...Well, a lot of it was pretty bad. Okay, all of it. At the time, I was 18 and hormonal and still hadn't learned the difference between good erotica and porn. I must admit I could see the beginning of my own style beginning to form. I've always been good at writing dialogue and even if some of the lines were regrettable looking back, there were a few diamonds in the rough....

I've been fiddling around with making my own avvies and sigs of late and I decided it might be fun to match both for once. The only difference between the two is the avatar's saying. I realize it might lok a little silly with my current name tag but oh well. I couldn't resist it and I'd made it for my lj userpics as well anyway. And yeah, if case it wasn't profoundly clear: I reallllyyy like Reno.

Eheh. Pretty obvious really. I've adored Reno since I first played FF7 and well..AC just helped that little fixation along. I jacked the tagline "Reno is love" from a convo with a friend. The rest of course is all the same. Shameless self-promotion, thy name is Iggy.

Maybe I should start doing that instead of passively stewing in my vast irritation. I've been getting that crap since I started really, truly writing (again). Although somehow I find the sequel plead worse. I ended up beating a dead horse of a plotline to a maggoty pulp due to people begging for sequels and the fact that I used to care about pleasing my fans. (within reason, of course.)

Eh, while it's easy to ignore I just get pissed off because deep in the back of my mind I can't help but think, "damn, and I thought I was through with this after I graduated from high school." Seems no matter how much you keep to yourself, someone's got something to say.

You know, I'm glad to hear other people that feel that way. Although I must confess, I used to secretly blame myself when I got reviews that begged for the smut. Honestly, I write enough smut to choke a horse and I guess I figured my readers were just antisipating it/expecting it/that they only read my stories for the sex scenes (what self-esteem?). I really don't write big epics, though. Don't have to attention span or ability, really. It takes way too much out of me, but sometimes I write longish, multi-part fics and it might take awhile to get to the erotica, so people get impaitent, I guess... It's silly and I do agree with Pix. If you want pwp, go find the stuff that's labeled as such. Personally, i don't mind either way and I've written both ways. Sometimes it's nice just to read a hot lemon without worrying about those pesky emotional entanglements or plot, but when I want that I don't go looking for the epics and I certainly don't complain if I run into a great story anyway that takes forever to get to the naughty bits. The build-up is just as good at the outcome with the right writer.

Eh, something like that. Research is the name of the game whenever you're exploring something beyond your scope of exprience, this includes sex. It might seem like such a small thing, but lack of research is why we have self-lubricating assholes, monster cocks, and candy-flavoured semen.

Hmmm...No actually he's older than me and you must understand that dressing in too much black and being Ia bit too thin for you height automatically exempts you from adult civility in some cases. Don't tell me it's not true because I still get hits on my weight by people old enough to know better. Do I care? Not really, but I think you're giving society and people too much credit.
