MORE (random) GOOD OMENS AU??? Sho the angel and Nino the demon and WOW POCKY YOU HAVE GREAT COMMERCIAL IDEAS:


"The horns are a nice touch," says Sho, because what else can one say when Nino comes striding into your bookshop in full devil costume and scares all your customers away with one sharply-curled, menacingly-innocent smile? It's 10 in the morning on a Saturday. It's the middle of June. Sho wonders if Nino is sweating buckets under all those fur and feathers and then he remembers Nino doesn't sweat.

"It's not a fashion trend," Nino says, leveling an unimpressed look at Sho.

"Then what is it? Making a blatantly unironic and therefore ironic statement?"

"Ha ha. Laugh it up. If you must know, I woke up like this. Apparently someone's trying to out me."

That's not surprising. Nino pisses off a lot of people. No, wait, it is surprising, because Nino pisses off a lot of people because he's smarter than them, and people who've tried to mess with him in the past have not gotten away unscathed.

"Who?" Sho asks warily.

"My best guess? Some brat named Chinen. He's one of yours." He makes a face, as if being an angel is comparable to having some kind of uncontrollable flatulence problem. "He's had it out for me ever since he discovered Oh-chan. Someone should tell the kid that jealousy's a sin."

"Well, what are you going to do about it?"

"I came here, didn't I?" Nino scowls. "Change me back to normal."

Sho blinks at him. "I don't know how to do that."

"You're kidding me."

Sho grins. "Yeah I am. I don't know though, it's kind of funny."

"Sho-chan," Nino growls, stalking up to him. His eyes flash red, and he actually has fangs. His horns are gleaming in a way that shouldn't be physically possible, under the sallow yellow lights of Sho's shop. Something dark flicks quickly, behind him, like a warning.

"Is that - did he give you a tail?" Sho asks, but it's clear Chinen did. A pointy black devil's tail, as if it was peeled from the most stereotypical cartoonish representation of demons in human media possible. Sho clamps a hand to his mouth, but he can't muffle all the laughter.

Nino bristles. His feathers actually shiver. That just makes Sho laugh harder.

"Some friend you are!" Nino says, and bustles out of the shop, tail swishing in irritation. Outside, a woman gives a shriek and Nino's voice yells back, voice muted by the distance, "What, lady, you've never seen an agent of darkness before? Hold onto your ugly kid's hand before he runs into a car."

Sho covers his face.

Nino doesn't come back for the rest of the day, but the next morning, Sho wakes up to find a few black feathers lingering at the edge of his pillow, and when he trudges blearily to the washroom, he realizes that there's a halo glued to the top of his head. Not like, a real halo, which They had abolished centuries back in an effort to make the entire Good department more approachable and personable. But a sparkly yellow halo made of pipe cleaners, a paper plate, and lots of glitter.

Sho sighs and goes to his closet for a hat.

Guys, I finished a big paper recently and I thought I would celebrate by procrastinating on my next big paper (AKA MY THESIS?!?!?!) by writing some Arashi fic! WHOOOOOO

So I'm 20K into this help_japan fill that I'm really excited about. I'm really nervous about it too, because in terms of writing style, I think it's kind of different from anything else I've written, but not in any way that I think is obvious to anyone but me. Explaining this change would be really weird and confusing for you and I both, so let's just say that I'm pleased with how it's developing, mostly (as much as I can be without being overly optimistic, I guess?), and can't wait to finish it and post it! This finishing business is going to take a bit more time, unfortunately, but I've still got a lot more story to get down and I really want it to turn out well, so I'm really spending a lot of time on it. The prompt was very nice and I hope I can do it justice, so.

IN THE MEANTIME my hero in life harioto continues to shower me with joy I don't deserve by drawing me amazing things like Nino and Sho as Crowley and Aziraphale of Good Omens, respectively. In exchange, I promised her I'd write her a little something, and here is that something.

So obviously this was meant to be a Good Omens crossover, but I kind of butchered it??? There's barely any Good Omens lore in it, other than it's about this Antichrist kid but ACTUALLY about the relationship between an angel and a demon, neither of whom are very good at their jobs. Hey, if you're looking for a quality fic blog, please allow me to point you in the opposite direction.

( oh man no guarantees any of the last 1,000 words will make any sense because it's 2am in the morning SSSSHHHH just go with it please )

URGE TO WRITE A SHERLOCK/ARASHI AU!FUSION FIC: 200%

Not exactly original (seeing as how I even wrote this idea before -- which wasn't even really mine, by the way, the idea, thank you aatash) but guys, BBC's Sherlock is warping my life like some kind of cosmic intervention, and with the last episode of season two coming up (!!!!! !!!!!), for some reason all I could think about was Nino and Ohno being Sherlock and John and having a happy ending instead of The Final Problem / The Empty House.

( mad plot ramblings within, not to be taken seriously )

UGHHHHHHHH I want to write a legit mystery fic so BADLY it's stupid. This would require OCs though, and I can't do OCs, I really can't. DILEMMA!!!!! :F

SIGH

IMPROMPTU COMMUNITY FIC!!!!!

I'd be writing an Arashi fic right now but I'm feeling decidedly unfunny today, so unfortunately, that train ain't movin'. Which is weird, since Community is a sitcom, so why would I spontaneously write a fic for it instead? Well I can tell you it's certainly not because I'm crushing mad hard on the show and Donald Glover and Danny Pudi and the trifecta of perfection that is Annie-Troy-Abed, okay. Okay?

Rated G; no explicit pairings; Annie, Abed, Troy; 1,500 words; not read through, barely thought out, I regret nothing.

( TV shows or people, nothing lasts forever. Aside for Inspector Spacetime I guess. )

This was a spur-of-the-moment thing. Just an exercise to see if I can actually write "short" fic. Conclusion: not really.

(PS. this is not even read over by me. I basically wrote it and then directly copy+pasted it here. THUMBS UP FOR QUALITY CONTROL!)

Fandom: Arashi
Word count: 1,223
Notes: Warnings for character death. Also warnings for using Western wedding traditions because I'm not really sure how weddings in Japan work and I didn't want to look it up because if given the chance to double-guess myself, I'd end up not posting anything.

( this too shall pass )

Has anyone ever written an Arashi/Avatar the Last Airbender fusion fic?

Because, uh. I'm just curious.

My computer went bluescreen while I had my fic open on Wordpad. When I opened the file again after restarting the computer, THE ENTIRE DOCUMENT IS BLANK. Like, the scrollbar is exactly the same size and the last modified time stamp is correct, but THERE ARE NO WORDS. WHERE ARE THE WORDS. WHERE ARE THE 25,000 WORDS I FUCKING WROTE ON THIS FUCKING DOCUMENT.

oh my god

oh my god i know wordpad doesn't have some fancy recovery feature but it's not supposed to screw up the OLD STUFF I SAVED

oh god oh god oh god

WHAT DO I DO DDDDDDDDDD:

I'm already late for school, I don't have time to deal with this shit!!!!!!!!!!!! DHLKADJASD:LARUHFDSFJds dsjglkasutiora fsdjafjsaf;sa

Hey, open question:

I seem to recall some story of Ohno wandering off from filming and getting himself lost (or not lost?) and in the end everyone had to go look for him or something. Am I crazy and just imagining this? I can't find the anecdote from google. Does anyone else have anymore details about it?

Thanks for any help!

CHATS!
IN THE DEATH RAY UNIVERSE!
FEATURING: NINOMIYA KAZUNARI, AIBA MASAKI
AND SPECIAL GUEST: SAKURAI SHO

PLEASE ENJOY
(especially you, harioto )

EDIT: DAMMIT LJ WHY DID YOU HAVE TO RUIN ALL MY NICE EQUAL SPACING, I SPIT ON YOUR FEET PTOOO ok i fixed it

Hi again~

I realize that I've pretty much stopped updating LJ in recent months. Sorry about this. First year of grad school has been very busy: lab work, TAing, classes, research, lab meetings; keeping myself fed and my apartment tidy is a major undertaking too, haha. My routine these days consists of getting home from school late in the evening and barely get any homework done before I succumb to "a short, one hour nap" and waking up late for first period the next morning, with gross stuff in my mouth because I'd been too lazy to brush the night before. I'm a slow worker, so coupled with school giving me quite a lot of work, time passes more quickly than I can understand and I don't ever seem to get anything done to show for it. I go to school on weekends, too, so there's no respite there.

That being said, I miss LJ like a crazy cat lady whose cats have all been taken away, and I miss all of you guys, and I miss fic LIKE FUCKING FUCK. So classes being over (this doesn't actually affect me a lot as I still go to the lab everyday) and me being a procrastinator (as ever), I thought I'd take some time to do a quick update here, just catch up! And to make sure that my account isn't frozen from inactivity or something. Does LJ do that? ...Let's not find out.

ALSO, for the hell of it, a WIP UPDATE. I like/dislike doing these because I am a paranoid shit so I think they jinx me, but lately I feel the need to prove that yes, I'm still writing things, just... very slowly. >__> The question nowadays is, will I get enough time to finish the fics before I get tired of trying? NOT IF I HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY ABOUT IT. IT IS A BATTLE OF ENDURANCE, MY FRIENDS, AND I WILL PROVE TO BE THE VICTOR. I promise they are interesting stories (or at least I think they are, lolol). I've never really been good at posting short, fluffy fics just for the sake of posting them, so I don't think I'd be able to start now. In the meantime, I humbly ask for your patience.

( YOU WANT A PIECE OF THIS?!!?!?! )

Anyway. I hope all you lovely people are doing well. Good luck with exams if you have them, but otherwise, I wish you a very safe and warm and happy holiday season. ♥
