A ton of random stories from various fandoms are under "Brilliant Ficcage by Other People", and JE/bandom stories I enjoyed are listed under their respective tags. (The "bandslash

/lurking
Just wanted to say I was freaking out for a bit; I went all, 'whaaaaaat, black screen of death?'
It's cool to see that is not the case.

[absenceofmind]

^^;; it might be the case? i um, may not ever go public again, although i haven't figured it out yet =) in the meanwhile, playing with layouts! and yes, i was told all black looked a bit morbid ^^;; hence, new default!

[acchikocchi]

ah, I hope it's not the case that you never unlock? but of course I imagine there are circumstances that merit such a thing. D: I would miss hearing from you, though, even though we didn't interact until recently. (also, selfishly, if you definitely plan on never unlocking I wish I'd gotten a chance to save some of your fic... :O) either way, hope everything works out...

[absenceofmind]

awww =) that's really nice of you to say. honestly, there were no special circumstances. i just looked at my latest fic and got so frustrated at how awful it all was that i decided i just didn't want it online anymore ^^;;

i'll be emailing anything i write to my friend for now, because i think she's not very critical as long as she can read about her boys XD but i'll keep it around so i can post it later, maybe? and anyhow i should do some tidying up; i never did get things tagged, sorted, filtered properly etc. ^^;;

but i'll still be reading your entries with glee! <3

[acchikocchi]

well! I think obviously our opinions differ significantly on the quality of your fic? *g* that is to say, I certainly enjoy reading it a whole lot and think it's far from awful. D: but when one gets that feeling other people's reassurances don't necessarily help, do they? (...on the off chance they do: I THINK YOU ARE GREAT. <3)

at any rate please do keep it around! if you, um, don't think the urge to post is going to come back? I'm konsquared at gmail dot com... *cough* I've gotten used to reading good Akame, you see. <3 and you have WIPs, of course I want to know what comes next. AND NOW THAT I HAVE GUSHED AN EMBARRASING AMOUNT, I WILL STOP.

and that is sweet of you to say! <3

[absenceofmind]

oh my god ;_; ok, i realize this whole thing just came across as like, whoring for reassurance but really, i didn't mean it that way. everyone's always been really nice and it's seriously not because someone made me feel bad about my writing! you guys have been the best and it's for my flist that i stick around <3 can't delete this if i want to keep track of you all, can i? ^_^

really, thank you so much for always being so kind about reviewing, and if you do want them i'll be happy to send you both anything i wind up working on? =)

...btw, omg, i didn't think this would show up on ppl's flists but apparently it is?? o_0;; how can i prevent that? i meant it just in case someone happened to stop by and check, it was supposed to be really discreet

AKI WHAT IS GOING ON, WHAT AM I MISSING T_T

[absenceofmind]

nothing! just, got tired of my writing! XD

[arboretum]

what! I'm so sad. :||

but whatever you have to do, I guess. I think your fic is amazing, though. ♥

[absenceofmind]

...god, i so totally didn't mean this for sympathy-whoring ^^;; thank you, i mean it, it's really kind of you. ugh, it was probably just a stupid late-night impulse thing but um, hey! if i ever go back online i promise at least things will be organized and stuff!

[arboretum]

I didn't take it that way at all! but I do hope you'll come back. :(

[reken]

*with hope* But you'll unlock some of it later? Please?:)
...And does it mean I shouldn't translate the fics I wanted to?:(
btw, I put down those drabbles translations, as you wished:) Sorry I didn't understand right away that it was that important?:)

[absenceofmind]

hey there, umm, probably i will! and hopefully by then i will have everything sorted out and some new fic to boot. i just had a moment of especially intense frustration at my own lack of talent. XD

umm, which translations were these?

and, thanks for taking down the drabbles! don't worry, i don't think ian was mad or anything, i just wanted to be sure that i respected her wishes =) i'm sure she's fine with now that i've got mine locked and yours are down.

[reken]

Um, I hope you'll get over this frustration?:)

"Hibernation", "London fog", "Predictable" and "As Usual"?

[absenceofmind]

er. if you've already started any, go ahead and finish? =) hate to waste your time, i do feel REALLY awful about those drabbles -_- did ian contact you about them? i didn't want to seem like i was making it up ^^;;

so if you're already done with a translation and you post it, please just add one line noting that i'm private locked for now so people don't get confused. (oh, and thank inis for that wonderful video link for me <3)

anything that you haven't translated, please just leave aside for now =) probably after a few months of sulking i'll feel ready to rejoin the world at large, hopefully with some actually COMPLETED stories XD
