Yes, would be SO welcome so my debt could be paid off and I wouldn't have to worry about it each month!

$50,000 immediately dropped into my bank account wouldn't improve EVERYTHING but boy it sure would be a grand, sexy little start to a good, happy life path, don't you think

New Naruto story!

I've been plotting out an arranged marriage story for Naruto & Sasuke and finally got a little snippet written up. The story is tentatively titled "It's Hard To Say "I Do", When I Don't". Here's a little snippet of what I have planned, so enjoy!

Naruto could tell that his best friend/secret crush was in a foul mood, if his perpetual dark scowl and angry mutterings were any indication.  “Something the matter, Sasuke?  Whatever it is, it seems like it’s really pissed you off.”

“My parents just dropped a bomb out of nowhere!”  Sasuke exclaimed, his black eyes narrowing in remembered anger.  “Apparently, they’d arranged a marriage for me with the kid of one of their friends.  What the fuck?!  How archaic can you get?  Like I want to get married to some fucking dumbass I don’t even know…or want to know, for that matter!”  He smirked before adding snidely, “Probably ugly as fuck, too, which is why their parents had to arrange a marriage for them.”

Naruto’s blue eyes widened at Sasuke’s words, hurt seeping into his heart.  Did Sasuke even know it was Naruto he was talking about?  He started to doubt what his parents had suggested as he witnessed Sasuke’s reaction.  Before he had a chance to think about what he was saying, he replied, “So is that what you honestly think about me, Sasuke?  I thought I was your friend, but you think I’m a loser now?”

Sasuke’s reaction was instantaneous.  “You?!  You’re the one they’re setting me up with?  Are you fucking kidding me?”  He seemed disgusted at the prospect of it being Naruto who he’d marry.  “How long have you known about this?!”  He accused the blond.  “You knew all this time and didn’t say anything!”

Naruto rushed to defend himself.  “It’s not like that at all, Sasuke!  My parents just told me about their decision!  I honestly thought you knew since you hadn’t mentioned it before now.”  His mouth tightened in a thin line as he heard Sasuke snort incredulously.  “It’s the truth.  I’m not lying to you.”

Sasuke sneered at Naruto’s words.  “Yeah,” he replied mockingly, “I’m so sure it’s the truth.  Are you so hard up for someone to be with you in a relationship that you had to beg Mommy and Daddy to set up this pity marriage?  Pathetic…just like you are.  Here’s a hint, Uzumaki – I’m not interested in you, never will be, and I sure as fuck don’t want to marry you.  Do yourself and me a favor and just stay out of my life permanently.”  Shoving Naruto to the side, uncaring as the blond was slammed into his locker, he stalked off leaving a heartbroken Naruto in his wake.

Naruto could only stand there, stunned, as he watched Sasuke walk away.  He stubbornly blinked back the tears that formed in the corner of his eyes.  The blond refused to give the bastard the satisfaction of knowing he’d made him cry.  He was just glad the halls were deserted at this time of day so there weren’t any witnesses to his humiliation.  It stung to know that was how Sasuke felt about him.  Not to mention that he thought so little of Naruto to just accuse him like he had.  Needing someone to talk to, he pulled out his phone, fingers already texting Sakura.  He smiled softly when he saw her reply that she’d meet him at his home.  As he walked to his car, he mulled over what he needed to do.  First, he needed to discuss things with his parents.  Their fantasy idea of him marrying Sasuke was never going to happen.  Second, Naruto didn’t want to stay in his current high school.  Day after day of being ostracized by Sasuke as if he didn’t exist?

Writing a fic ‘late’ in a fandom is OK.

What is ‘late in a fandom’? It’s after the first heady flush of media excitement. Six months after the standalone movie or book comes out, a year or more after the series ends.

We get inspired by late canon: the behind-the-scenes book, the deleted scenes, a revealing creator interview. We get inspired by fanon and meta. We get talking to that one - one! - person who likes our ideas.

Sometimes a fic even needs to be written late in the fandom. After thinking and creative ferment, worldbuilding and character development. ‘Late to the fandom’ is a good time to take risks. To do the dark AU, focus on the minor character from stage left. It’s also a good time to offer up tropetastic fun.

Whatever you do, you will get readers who appreciate that you are writing. Because for every writer considering writing ‘late’ there’s a hundred fandom members wanting some fresh content.

Good morning! I’m salty.

I think we, as a general community, need to start taking this little moment more seriously.

This, right here? This is asking for consent. It’s a legal necessity, yes, but it is also you, the reader, actively consenting to see adult content; and in doing so, saying that you are of an age to see it, and that you’re emotionally capable of handling it.

You find the content you find behind this warning disgusting, horrifying, upsetting, triggering? You consented. You said you could handle it, and you were able to back out at any time. You take responsibility for yourself when you click through this, and so long as the creator used warnings and tags correctly, you bear full responsibility for its impact on you.

“Children are going to lie about their age” is probably true, but that’s the problem of them and the people who are responsible for them, not the people that they lie to.

If you’re not prepared to see adult content, created by and for adults, don’t fucking click through this. And if you do, for all that’s holy, don’t blame anyone else for it.

Just now reading the Yashahime manga...

I bought the first two volumes of the Yashahime manga. Glancing through it, I compared it to the anime, which I've already watched in its entirety. And you know what? I will admit I enjoyed the anime, largely because of the nostalgia value, even though it had its plot issues. However, if the anime had closely followed the manga as its source material, it would have been so much better! The manga set the story up in a vastly different way, though some pieces were similar to the anime. I think I will enjoy seeing how the story was supposed to be done via the manga, because there are not a lot of glaring plot holes so far, unlike the anime. Just my two cents, though!

Fighting For Love Chapter 2 snippet

I know it's been a long time since I've done anything with this story, but I've been working on Chapter 2. Here's a little snippet for everyone to enjoy!

Sasuke couldn’t believe he’d finally made it to Hawaii with his sanity intact.  His stress level had almost skyrocketed when he learned he might not be able to get a flight as soon as he’d liked, but his luck had held out.  Setting his bags on the floor, he rummaged in his pocket for his room key.  The sound of voices coming near caused him to almost get whiplash, instantly recognizing that familiar laugh.  His fingers tightened their grip on the key, almost snapping the plastic in half, as he heard another male’s voice interspersed with Naruto’s.  Who did that bastard think he was, getting all chummy with his blond?!  He saw the blond nearing his door, a male with short dark hair standing way too close for Sasuke’s liking.  As if pulled by an invisible force, Naruto’s head looked up, blue eyes going comically wide as he caught sight of Sasuke standing there.  His companion caught Naruto’s sudden silence, glancing at Sasuke quizzically.

“Is something the matter, Naruto?  You act as though you’ve seen a ghost.”

Naruto had to calm himself before replying, “You could say that, Sai.  Definitely not something I was anticipating.  I’ll see you around later, okay?”

“I’ll be looking forward to it, Naruto.  It’s been a pleasure getting to know you.”  With a small wave, he turned to leave, dark eyes casting Sasuke a final, curious glance.

Spying Sasuke’s bags sitting innocently on the floor, Naruto muttered, “Sakura, you damn Judas…you just had to tell him where I was, didn’t you?”  Taking a good look at his lover, ex-lover…whatever the hell they were at the moment, he noted the dark tinge under Sasuke’s eyes, as if he hadn’t gotten any sleep.  The part of him that still loved the bastard was worried, but the vindictive part said that it was about time Sasuke got a taste of his own medicine for causing Naruto the same affliction.  Crossing his arms over his chest, he said, “Can honestly say I didn’t expect to see you here, Sasuke.  Did Itachi finally kick you out of the office?  Or did he have to take a crowbar to pry your ass off your desk chair?”

Yeah, I’d say he’s definitely still bitter, Sasuke thought to himself.  It’s now or never, Uchiha!  Gather your courage together, damn it!  “Can’t say I didn’t deserve that,” Sasuke stated, drinking in the blond's appearance.  “I’m here to try and show you that we deserve a second chance, Naruto, and that I can change.  You deserve that and more.”

It's Ok If You Forget Me Chapter 4 snippet

Getting any writing done seems nearly impossible due to my work hours. By the time I get home, I'm so tired I'm hitting the bed to sleep! I've been trying to sneak in little writing breaks when I can because I've wanted to get new stuff written. Here's a little sneak peek at Chapter 4 of my Blue Exorcist story.

The sound of a pencil scratching on paper filled the silent room.  A portrait was beginning to fill up the empty space of the sketchbook, taking on the familiar appearance of a certain half-demon.  Ryuuji’s face was scrunched up in concentration as he focused on getting the details right.  Two long months had passed since Rin left to go to his new home.  The school just wasn’t the same without him here.  It seemed as though they were the only ones to miss or even notice Rin’s absence.  Most of the regular students just assumed he’d transferred somewhere else and that was the end of it.  What he found the most disturbing were the cram school professors’ reactions.  They actually seemed happier after news of his departure had spread around the cram school.  It made Ryuuji sick to witness them actually celebrating the fact Rin was gone.  More and more, he began to understand why Rin was hesitant about them finding out his heritage.  The guy had trust issues and he could see why given people’s treatment of him.  Not that we were any better once we found out, he thought bitterly.  But at least we feel guilty and know we fucking screwed up.  We’re willing to do whatever it takes to make amends…but is Rin ever going to find it in his heart to forgive us?  Placing his pencil down on the desk, he glanced over his sketch.  Rin’s smiling face stared back at him, making him wish it were the real thing.

“You miss him, don’t you, Bon?”  Konekomaru’s quiet voice broke the stillness in the room.

Ryuuji jerked around in his seat as he saw his friend standing next to him, dark eyes taking in the sketch he’d drawn of Rin.  He wanted to deny it, to just say he was practicing his drawing skills.  But even he knew how pathetic that would sound.  It was kind of hard to deny it when the evidence was sitting in front of him.  “Yeah,” he finally replied, his voice sounding defeated.  “And I’m starting to think it goes beyond just missing him, ‘Neko.  Rin…I think I’m in love with him and it honestly scares me.  I’ve never felt like this for anyone and now…  How am I going to convince him about what I feel for him when all he’s likely to remember is how I last treated him?”
