If you don't shoot it, how'm I s'posed to hold it?

HAH!! More Ouran drabble-age for anime_flash. I think I'll make a whole series of these, because they're way too fun. Tamaki really is such a loveable idiot.

Haruhi really was so cute in that skirt that it was scandalous. Tamaki knew that she should have been wearing girl clothes all this time. Then people would notice her for what she truly was. People would notice his daughter and—

The twins each grabbed one of Haruhi’s hands. They bent down simultaneously and started to lick at the insides of her wrists, all the while watching Tamaki from under their bangs with those imp eyes.

Honey knelt at her feet and tentatively kissed one of her beautiful, innocent knees. “Mmm! Haru-chan tastes sweet like cake! Doesn’t she?”

“Hai,” Mori said, as he ran one of those long fingered hands up the back of her calf and right up under the edge of her skirt. That skirt that Tamaki had longed for.

Tamaki’s eyes traveled up Haruhi’s body in time to see a pair of pale hands wrap around her waist and pull her backward. She fell away from the others into Kyouya’s arms and she blushed prettily as he bent down to kiss the side of her neck.

“Tono?” the twins poked him in the back.

“Mon ami?” Tamaki whimpered, as Kyouya watched him from behind Haruhi’s beautiful hair.

“Perhaps the suggestion of an okama cosplay was not the best thing,” Kyouya said and pushed his glasses further up his nose.

Flap flap flap.

The reel came to an end in the Tamaki Inner Mind Theatre.

Tamaki catapaulted himself to a standing position and ran full pelt across the third music room to Kyouya’s open laptop. As the rest of the Host Club watched, puzzled, he did a quick search for chastity belts. His pure and protective fatherly love would not allow anything of that sort to happen to his daughter!



Argh! The Cain nightmare is so good in my head that I'm afraid to type it up and rescue it from the piece of crumpled blotter paper I scribbled it on at work. It won't be nearly as good as I want it to be when I post it. I tend to think I've only successfully captured such a beautiful ephemerance (is that a word? Fuck, it is now!) once or twice before. But just... *sob*

So much to look forward to this week! Tomorrow is early VDay with The Boy, Tuesday is Fiddler's with the writers, Thursday is a reunion with an old room mate of mine whom I miss very much, and Saturday is Fuji and Fandom!! I'm going to be so tired by the end of the week it's going to be ridiculous.

Also, have decided that I'm going to request a meeting with The Boss tomorrow and talk to her about my permanence, or lack thereof. It's important to me, you know? I REALLY want to stay there, but I need to be full time, and have health insurance, and do other adult things. Blah.

Spent a good portion of the work night talking with my 2nd favorite sillhouette artist. He's gone back to school for a masters in Film and Production. I am so proud of him! His love for his classes and professors makes me want to go back even more than I did before. It's doubly nice though that I can talk to him about the NNoD and he can talk to me about his screen plays and we can hash things out and laugh and beg to see the finished products, all in colonial wear. *head desk* But I really do value any time I get to see him. That just sounded extra girly didn't it?

Damn. I think it's nap time.

Bwahahaha poor Tamaki. He's just such a tool. I watched the Tamaki no Mujikaku na Yuutsu episode (the one after Kasanoda finds out Haruhi is a girl and comes to the Host Club and requests her ahaha "Don't underestimate the burning flames of MOE!") and my god, he's so stupid in that one. I mean, he's an idiot all the time, but he's just at his peak in episode 23. Great use of the Tamaki's Inner Mind Theatre (hahaha I love that) and chastity belts. XD

[momebie.livejournal.com]

I KNOW! Someone needed to slap him. But I still love him, I can't help it. Gah!

And thank you, I think chastity belts should make it into conversation more often. You know, just because. :p

[paranoidsistah.livejournal.com]

LOL! You so understand the workings of Tamaki's mind!

On small typo:

“Mon ami?” Tamaki whimpered, as Kyouya watched him from behind Haruhi’s beautiful hair.

[momebie.livejournal.com]

*head desk* Thank you so much dear!

[frouella.livejournal.com]

Yay! Tama-chan is such a spaz, but a lovable spaz nonetheless... ^_^

And even though I never really thought about it, Haruhi DOES have innocent knees.

bokbok!

[momebie.livejournal.com]

Haha. I should tell writing group Jenn about that. I told her once that there was a dumpster full of 'nubile limbs' and now she uses it all the time. 'Innocent knees' would be a good one to add to the repertoire. :p

Heee. They had one of the 'Things That Go Boink' in that Ouran episode about Honey and I told Jess that THAT was the sound I meant by 'bok' and NOT that Vicious was clucking like a chicken. I think she was disappointed.

[frouella.livejournal.com]

O.o A dumpster full of nubile limbs? Sounds like the alley behind Jeffrey Dahmer's apartment; maybe there's a bin of "innocent knees" back there, too. ^_~

and NOT that Vicious was clucking like a chicken

**choking on my coffee** HA! She is SO gonna hear about that on Saturday!

[momebie.livejournal.com]

I can't explain exactly WHY the idea of an alley full of nubile limbs and innocent knees makes me almost spit water out of my nose, but my co-worker thinks I've gone into apoplectic shock.

Dude, where did you find those quote icons?

[frouella.livejournal.com]

Well, I thought they were from a person called aeolinafay, but I just checked and lj says they aren't registered. >.< So now I don't know. I saved those icons a while ago (before I had the lj account, I think) and I didn't know about the whole credit-the-creator thing... Yeah, I'm an idiot.

[frouella.livejournal.com]

Apparently, it's because it's aeolianafay, and not what I wrote. Durrr.

[momebie.livejournal.com]

Hahaha. Thank you. You are awesome.

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

The Cain nightmare is so good in my head that I'm afraid to type it up

Oh no! have a try, I'll ve looking forward to reading it! *cheers up*

I think the twins called Tamaki dono in the anime... I'm going to check it again. I was told dono means something like lord...

[momebie.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm not sure how it exactly translates over, but they call him 'Baka tono', or something like that, in the one where he's trying to guess their name to get them to join the club and my sub said 'Foolish Lord'.

As for the spelling, I can't be sure of that either. I'm just pulling the spelling with the 't' from all the other fics I've read. That seems to be the general consensus in fandom.

I most certainly do appreciate notes from someone who knows a bit of the language though. :)

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

My mistake, it's tono! what I heard was wrong (what I was told too. *laughs*)

You do know how to write about characters in every single fandom you're interested in. Kyouya is so great in this fic! I can picture him very clearly.

You shoould really write some more God Child. :)

[momebie.livejournal.com]

That will happen with languages. *hugs*

This is because I make it a strict policy to not write in fandoms where I can't get the characters down. Hence no Bleach fic, even though the bunnies are there. :p

You're right, as always. I SHOULD write more Godchild. I should also edit TS3, since I've been telling Jess I would for two weeks and she's about to kill me in my sleep. :p

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

You've got so many things to write! where does this inspiration come from? I mean, apart from fandoms themselves...?

[momebie.livejournal.com]

That, dear heart, is a very good question. Hehe. I don't really know WHERE it comes from, just that it does, and it always has. When I was younger I would try and write things 'in the style of' certain authors, and at times I would write continuations of stories that I loved. I now recognize this as fanfic, but I wasn't aware of the existance of any such thing when I was 10. :p Of course, no one ever saw any of that, and they're better off for it.

I also always have, and do more so now, work on personal things. Sometimes seriously and sometimes not. Like I'm still wheedling away at the NNoD, but I doubt anyone will see hide or hair of that for quite some time. The fic gives me the ability to get out of my head for a while and play with someone elses world. Which is a god send, because I'm crazy enough as it is without spending all my time wrapped up in my warped brain. As you can probably tell. :p

In all reality though, it's probably the same thing that makes you want to draw. And if you've got that figured out, then I'm jealous.

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Yes, you're right. I can't tell where inspiration comes from. I did copy a lot - I still do sometimes when I don't know how to draw something very specific.

I'm still amazaed at how you... yes, play with words. Words either hate me or don't want them to be used by me. I'd rather read someone's fic and then... inspiration comes. :)

There's nothing to be jealous for as for drawing. I don't write a lot, so I can't tell if I'm right or wrong, but if you train a lot for drawing, you can easily get better.
The worst thing may be to give up while looking at other people's works (which used to happen a lot with me...).

[momebie.livejournal.com]

You could become better at writing with practice too. It's not that it's altogether difficult, it just takes a different part of the brain. But being a technically good writer and having a story to tell, or the passion to do it, don't always coincide.

And it's the same thing really. Sometimes when I read something that amazes me I want to throw pens across the room and give up. But I don't, and I suppose that's the difference between us and most people. :)

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Yes, but I would have to write in English, I guess. And I'm still thinking about mistakes I can make - I always correct my students when they say something wrong in French, so...

I would so love having enough time to write. Inventing a GOOD plot. I used to do this before... er, working. ;D

Do you mean many people leave fandom because of this? too bad... :/

[momebie.livejournal.com]

Well, I was talking more in the original works sense. Very many people want to be writers. Quite a few less people actually write, and even fewer are actually persistent enough to get published. From what I've been told it's the same way in the art world.

And I'm sure you could write in French, unless you were writing for fandom. I wonder how large the fandoms are in other langquages and what percentage of people participate in fandom in english rather than their own language.

Hmm...I think there needs to be a poll.

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Exactly the same thing as for artists, of course. Plus we now have to get a beautiful website so as to attract people to buy our illustrations. ;)

I guess I could write in French... one day. Once I'm tired of drawing. Which won't happen. ;)
but I may have read one or two fics written in French so far in the fandom - and I'm in the R/S fandom since 2002!

[momebie.livejournal.com]

Marketing yourself never hurts. It's one of the reasons I'll never feel too bad about having a degree in Ad/PR, even if I don't want to work in Advertising anymore. Just understanding the mechanics of it is beneficial.

Interesting. Is it that it's hard to find fic in French, or that you spend more time in the english side of fandom by default?

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

AAAAAH! Yiou should have told me this sooner, sweetie! I'm unable to send illustrations!

Just understanding the mechanics of it is beneficial.

I totally fail at understanding it. You could help me a lot!
Well... if you want to, of course. Right now I'll have an appointment with my bank. Ewww.

A little of both. It's hard to find anything interesting in French, and I'm not really looking for it anyway. I'm used to reading English by now. ;)

[momebie.livejournal.com]

Wait, told you what earlier? :p I am slightly lost at this point. It's too early!! Hehe.

I would be glad to help you with anything you needed help with.

Eww...banks. Have fun with that. *wrinkles nose*

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

You told me you studied Marketing, right? a word I can't even understand why it was created for! *g*

You're the best! so far I haven't got any problems while creating my business, but I'm sure I will.

Just came back from the bank. Well well well. All this is going to cost me a lot of money...

[momebie.livejournal.com]

I did a little bit of marketing, mostly the creative side of advertising and the writing side of PR though. :)

Yes, business start is expensive. I'm so proud of you though! Can you get loans to help with the costs? I know here in the states that it's pretty easy to get a loan to start a business of you're a minority, and as a woman, you are. ;)

*poke* Go take my poll!

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

I will definitely need you to help me. *worhips you*
The writing side of PR? what is it exactly? :)

I won't get any loans.... because I don't want too. I think I can deal with what I have right now. If not, I'd ratehr ask my family to help me. I'd feel more at ease with them than any bank in the whole world.

Oh, I do know about the minority ting is the USA... I learnt it when I was a student at uni. Fascinating. ;)

Where's your poll to be found, O Wonderful Katilara? :DD

[momebie.livejournal.com]

The writing side of PR deals in press releases and newspaper articles mostly. And there are projects where you have to submit ideas in writing and create books with every answer to every possible question in it for news conferences and things like that so the company's representative isn't caught unaware and you can always present the face you want to the public. It's just another form of manipulating perceptions. Come to think of it, maybe I shouldn't be so surprised about being Kyouya. :p

I totally understand about not wanting to take money from a bank. I need to win the lottery or something and pay off my student loans post haste!

It's at my newest post, oh awesome remeciel. :p

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

It could be a nice thing to try with what I want to do in the future. Ideas like these would help me to define my main purposes for my business... mm. :)

We both need to win the lottery! there's one in France tomorrow for Valentine's Day - almost 7 million euros. Wow.

I'm off to asnwer your poll, sweetie. :)

[momebie.livejournal.com]

I had to do quite a few business outlining exercises. Granted, I've never done it for real, but I can try and find the info for you if you like. It's probably on my harddrive somewhere. :p


Weeee!

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Sure! any information is good for me right now! I want information! I need it! :D

Am I beggin you or what? ;)

[lord-vandemort.livejournal.com]

Good luck with the job stuff. I'll keep my fingers crossed for more permanence/security/benefits. Good for you for scheduling a meeting to talk about this with your boss.

[momebie.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much love. I'm trying to be this grown up person right now, but it's not fitting quite right. Maybe someday. :)
