Birds can Fly

Oh, hey, good luck to my fellow retail slaves! TOMORROW IS GOING TO BE A BLAST. I'm going to make it worse for some poor bastard because I'm going to do some shopping before I have to be at work (at 6am omg). But damn it, one of those laptops WILL BE MINE. :|

I think one of the things I hate the most about watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade is how my dad complains about the music. *G* However, I want to know why they're not singing happier songs. WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING ABOUT LEAVING YOUR BOYFRIEND IN THE THANKSGIVING PARADE? :|

Anyway, Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate! We're not doing the whole "family getting together" thing. *SHRUG* It's just going to be the three of us, which is just fine with me. XD

GOD FINALLY. This was suppose to happen on the 15th! But instead, I sit on 40k for six or seven days idek and THEN write 10,000 words in two days and I, I don't know. I just don't know.

This story is so not over but jeez. At least I officially won NaNo, anyway. Second time EVAR, yes!

Title: At Once Our Time Devour
Characters: Reborn, Colonnello
Summary: When you don't have a lot of time left, it's funny what matters and what doesn't anymore.
Notes: Adult! Set pre-curse, I guess. I'm a manga-only girl, so this isn't going to square with the Arcobaleno stuff that's coming down the anime pipeline. Smut, swearing, Colonnello and Reborn being asses to each other, 1706 words. Dedicated to wolfy_chan, whose smoking hot Reborn and Colonnello art that inspired this.

( Colonnello blinked once at the news, and then said, 'Bet you're going to miss fucking, huh?' It was a refreshing change from the wide-eyed looks of sympathy mingled with relief at not being the one chosen, so when he pulled his gun on Colonnello, Reborn didn't bother shooting to kill. )

Well that was a strange experience.

I have a necklace of the symbol off Ed's coat from Fullmetal Alchemist (the name of which escapes me), and I was wearing it today at school because I'm a nerd like that. One of my students asked me what it was and when I told him that it was from the anime, his response was: "Anime? But you're like 29." Which is, first of all, wrong on the practical level, but I'm more interested by the inference on his part that I'm too old to like anime. Because, really? That makes no sense to me. I mean, if my mum's friends can like 'Twilight', why shouldn't I like anime? And when he clearly knows very little about anime (I consider FMA decently mainstream enough that most anime-types would at least recognize the name, which he didn't), how is it his right to judge?

Besides, I'm technically 'an adult' which I think means that I can choose to like whatever the hell I damn well please. *makes immature face*

Prompt: Final Fantasy VII, Reeve: the fall of Sector 7 – It shouldn't be like this
A/N: Originally due Oct. 16

There was nothing he could do, and that hurt most of all.

Reeve had only heard about the plan to drop the plate a few moments ago, overhearing Reno's voice as they passed in the hallway. For a moment Reeve had frozen in shock, not wanting to believe that something this horrific was anything more than the Turk shooting his mouth off again. Several frantic phone calls soon had him throwing up in his office trash can.

After he washed out his mouth in the bathroom, he went to find a place in the Shinra building where he could watch it happen. That was his penance for not being able to save anyone. So he stood in silence, hands clenched at his sides, tears running into his beard, and watched the plate kill untold thousands of people as it crashed down.

It was then that he decided he hated, and that he had to do something to make it right.

When you get Angeal involved in a prompt, all other teams are shut out! SOLDIER wins this round with 50 points.

This week's prompt is #123 - Afterlife

So, what's it all about, really? Where do we go when we die?

Does Genesis believe that he will be reunited with the Goddess? Is Sephiroth choking the planet? Is the Lifestream all there is or is it just a pit-stop? Is Reno a non-believer? Does Tseng have his own view of the after-world? If people go back to the planet and ShinR is using the planets energy, what happens to the souls of loved ones? Does Rufus even care? Where do beings like Jenova spend their afterlife...in a box?

Whether the afterlife involves angels, a deep dark void, or shiny green fluid stuff, write about it in only 100 words.

All right. I've been a bad, bad mod. *smacks hands*

I need a show of hands. Other than people who have just joined, how many people are still active on their prompts, and interested in completing them?

If you are, reply to this within a week, and I'll leave your claim up. If not, after a week, I'll take it down and clean up the claims list.

I apologize for how long it took me to get focused again, but I hope to do better in the future.

I got my Yuletide assignment. \0/ and also OMFHDSJKDHSDSHDS

I AM EXCITED

Unfortunately, I didn't get any NaNoWriMo writing done yesterday. This is what happens! I'll have to write double as much today! I WAS SUPPOSE TO HIT 50K, DAMN IT.

The Archive of Our Own is in Open Beta! Learn more about it here. I'm Nan over there but I've yet to upload anything. I am keeping standards here, which means that I'm only uploading crap I'm actually proud of. There, uh, there really isn't that much that I like! D: I must fix this!

There was something else I wanted to talk about but, uh. Memory, memory.

.:Midgar City:. A social uprising looms on the horizon as the ShinRa Electric Power Company gains a stranglehold on the world. Their Mako reactors pollute the land and mutate local wildlife into ferocious beasts, even as they provide everyone with an affordable and efficient power source. A rebel faction known only as AVALANCHE, many of its members touched by tragedy brought on by the corporation, boldly choose to fight back; but at what cost? Without ShinRa the economy would undoubtedly falter. There is no real evil here — only a difference in opinion. On which side of the conflict will you fall? Midgar City is a Final Fantasy VII role-play set in an alternate universe. The game will explore the initial themes of Man vs. Corporation, as opposed to launching into a plot to save the world from Sephiroth, Jenova and Meteor. Characters from all Square Enix games are welcome so long as they are altered to fit the universe. Come play a part in crafting the social hierarchy! midgarmods midgarcity midgarooc
