My local Marukai Kawaii store is having a sale for the month of May.  'Summertime's knockin' on the door!  Welcome it in with kawaii!'  It lists a wide variety of kawaii products: Hello Kitty stationery, cutesy hair accessories, little plushies... and Gundam models.

It has been almost three months since I last fell in a forest and made a sound, and for that I apologize.  I'm still chipping away at the current story.  Closing in on the 'turning point' of the story, which hopefully means it's a smoother slog on to the end than it has been getting here, but I suspect I'll end up having to do some liberal culling of the slog in the first half.  Hopefully there will still be something left.

Naturally, right when things started picking up, I did something I never do, and started something new.  But, uh, it's for a good cause? ^^'

Like a person doesn't feel bad enough not posting fic, it seems the calendar itself is set on making it worse!  Everywhere I look, it's the day my phone bill needs to be paid, the day I have a meeting, the expiration date on my milk... 1/12/12, 2/1/12, 2/12/12... Sheesh, Universe, I get it already!

But they do say that what you're doing at midnight on New Year's will set the tone for what you'll be doing for the rest of the year, so I made sure I was writing when the calendar rolled over.  That'll probably work as well as November magically finishing novellas for me, but a girl can hope, right?

(but why don't i post haven in the meantime?  because i'd just use it as an excuse not to write long-fic.  not like it was left at a cliffhanger or anything.)

*waves good-bye to november*

Can't say that thing worked as advertised... but I still probably got more writing done during the month than I would have otherwise.  Approximately ten scenes written, or blocked in, at least.  At least sixteen more to go. -_- Let's not even get into word count.  Not bad, I suppose, considering I ran into a hmm-what-next? point about halfway through, and then ran off to play Skyrim instead. ^^'

Title:  I've Got This Friend...
Series:  Moments of Haven
Summary:  A couple of short random scenes gluing together a couple of more interesting scenes, wherein they act all coupley.
Note:  Also wherein I correct a factual error from a fic past.  I think I only implied it, but nevertheless, shame on me for not doing my research.

Say I had an AU.  And say the boys had an ally, and say I named this ally something like Dekim Barton or Quinze.  Would you automatically assume/guess that this ally was secretly a bad guy ready to betray their confidence?  Does it make it less fun, being able to see the 'obvious'?  Or would it make it less fun if it turned out that he really was a staunch ally, and that you'd just wasted all that fic-energy in trying to read signs that weren't there?

If, for instance, I had a character named Treize, and a character named Mariemaia, and they did not appear to be related, but their ages were right, and Treize was in reasonable proximity to Mariemaia's family, would you spend all this time thinking/wondering if Treize was actually Mariemaia's father?  Would it be better if I just said outright in the notes, nope, no relation, so you didn't have to think about it, or would it just be cheating to use these two characters in unrelated roles?

Don't know how many of you out there are familiar with Little Big Planet, or how otherwise nerdy you may be, but this is made of so much win, I just about squeed my pants as soon as sackboy!heero showed up:

Title:  I Backward Cast My E'e
Part:  31
Notes:  That's it, folks.  That's the end of this one.  The next novella is taking its place in the queue, but I won't be posting it until I've gotten quite a bit of it done.  Hopefully, that'll make the thing tie together more nicely than this thing did.
Additional note:  Happy graduation season!

Title:  Impulse
Summary:  "You know... every time another person asks you out... I'm afraid you're going to say yes."
Notes:  A more socially awkward and perhaps impulsive Heero than I usually write, but it's drabble length and therefore I don't care.

Title:  Late Night After
Summary:  It wasn't that Heero didn't remember how he had ended up in Duo's bed...
Notes:  Duo gets to be all assertive for 2/12 day. ^_^ Plus, I barely ever write them ever getting into bed with each other, so this time, I thought I'd just start out with it. ^o^
