hi! ok this is not only a month belated but it's also totally random.. i was wandering around X-Parrot's manga and site and found the lj, at which point i found this entry which i think is brilliantly written, and i was skimming the comments and almost had a heart-attack when i saw Quatrina leaving a message XD
ok. you two. while i am able to semi-talk to you two, i want to say THANK YOU. because what X-Parrot is talking about in the entry is EXACTLY what you two write! i've been freakishly watching OP and reading the manga and have now ordered some HK subs because i MustHaveMore, but i was largely unable to go into the fandom.. one, because there are a shitload of spoilers around that NO ONE seems to be warning about (>_< i think i spoiled one of the biggest secrets just by downloading a wallpaper -_-) but beyond that because i happen to also love smarm and i wasn't really finding anything wonderful when i looked around. it's not that the fics were BAD i was finding, they just werent what i really really wanted to find. but then i found you two, and i'm now sooo hooked and happy that i want to chain you both to your desks and FORCE you to write more! >=D i will do it toooo trust meeee >=D
i actually have a lot of things i wanted to comment on after reading your long correspondence back and forth, but these stupid comment boxes usually cut me off in the middle of talking.. i guess mostly i wanted to say that i dont know about this Western thing, cuz ive never read anything in the Western fandoms, but if Western fandoms are like how you guys write, it has to be amazing there *_*
one of you (i think X-parrot) said this: And I know just what you mean about your first discovery of h/c. It hit me the same way - I loved it for years, but for the longest time thought I was some bizarre sadistic freak (I loved seeing my favorite chars hurt! what was wrong with me?)
LOL it's SO TRUE XD i do the same thing.. my favorite episodes have consistently been the ones in which my favorite characters were having the most trouble. i LOVE the h/c factor... it freaking gets me every time. i would squeal like a fangirl and glomp a pillow at a h/c scene much sooner than i'd get all googly-eyed over, say, a sex scene.
it's SO GREAT seeing others think the same way ^_^ i will admit i am also a sucker for happy endings. i love my fics and animes FULL of angst, with tons of h/c scenes and emotional torture interspersed with random happy times... and a good ending that doesnt make me feel like i just had my heart torn out, thrown on the floor, and stomped on all to hell. i think it was X-parrot who said that the transition into writing fics was when you didn't see what you wanted to read? something like that? that's how i started out too. though as of now, i've only written Gundam Wing (with one short bit of Ronin Warriors long ago), i've wandered around a lot of fandoms and frequently get frustrated when i don't see what i want to read. i guess i just don't feel confident enough to write anyone other than the GW characters, though, so i don't write for the other fandoms even when i'm constantly complaining at the lack of the Fics I Want To See. that being said, i want to thank you both again for writing for One Piece. i sincerely hope you both continue... your fics are amazing and REALLY want more!
ok that's all ^^; sorry for the random accostation XD btw, i'm Ais (aka MikAAislin Nymph) from.. uh. GW XD i doubt you know me ^_^
O_O!
