in the absence of fandomspam, a meme.

[ambientlight]

the fandom meme that made the rounds some time ago:

your task, dear reader, should you choose to accept it, is to guess from these brief summaries which ten fandoms i am referring to. for the purposes of this meme, 'fandom' is taken to mean 'series for which ambientlight has written fic, even if only a few lines thereof'. correct guesses win, er, a line of fic from that fandom! i don't know, man, my exams are almost over and i feel braindead and i need to get back into fic-writing mode before christmas arrives. help me out, eh?

1. Having a dream is nice, but having shiny powerz helps too. (naruto, guessed by erushi)
2. Random oneshot episodes, fluff fluff fluff angst -- whoa, sudden appearance of plot! The End. (maloki, feliciter)
3. Life's a bitch, and then other people die.
4. All you need is style, yo. (samurai champloo, erushi)
5. Death is no cure for woe and pain. (yami no matsuei, feliciter)
6. Psychopathic serial killers just want to be loved.
7. Mm, scenery. (mushishi, feliciter)
8. Why bother with historical accuracy when you can have crack and angst? (peacemaker kurogane, feliciter)
9. Never trust the overachieving sort.
10. Because giving teenagers great power is such a logical thing to do.

bonus summary, with two possible answers ( one of which is listed above ) --
0. Buildings fall, no one dies? (weiss kreuz and weiss kreuz glühen, ruebert)

ahaha, i didn't know that tactics worked like that too! oh kinoshita-sensei, why do you do this to your fans.

naturally, rue-kun, you are absolutely right. :D any characters/pairings you'd like, or can i inflict random weissfic on you? it's been ages.

( you've got more than a passing acquaintance with one or two of the other fandoms, but yeah... )

... I'm still in love with Kyou and Sena, but if they're too hard, anythign you feel like! =3

[ambientlight.livejournal.com]

it feels awkward writing kyou and sena for you, of all people*, but here goes. apologies for my abuse of punctuation and general bleh-ness.


Kyou knew it would be naïve to think that Sena was as optimistic as he appeared -- after all, they were assassins, and life was just one long mission, and simply being in Koua Academy would be enough to break the spirit of any teenager -- yet he wanted to believe that, all the same; surely, he thought, at least one of them must have had more to live for than revenge.


failing which, um-- have some random psychotic ken?


It wasn't just that Aya was the only one left who understood, or even that Ken needed someone to believe in (had always needed someone to believe in) -- Aya was there, that was all; a reminder of a past life to which Ken had grown too attached; a figure that carried with him, always, the promise of blood.

* this is a compliment! :o

=) These are both beautiful, especially the Kyou one. Thank you so much!

Also! Don't sell yourself short! You're a very gifted writer.

[ambientlight.livejournal.com]

you are very welcome! <3

thankyou. :x but it is less the "general inadequacy common to most writers at some time or another" thing, and more the whole "writing fic about characters whom the recipient writes much better" thing, really. ~_^
