in the absence of fandomspam, a meme.

[ambientlight]

the fandom meme that made the rounds some time ago:

your task, dear reader, should you choose to accept it, is to guess from these brief summaries which ten fandoms i am referring to. for the purposes of this meme, 'fandom' is taken to mean 'series for which ambientlight has written fic, even if only a few lines thereof'. correct guesses win, er, a line of

Comments

[feliciter]

I can't even *name* ten fandoms, let alone match them to the summary ;_;

2. MaLoki
5. Yami no Matsuei
6. Weiss (?)
7. Mushishi
8. Peacemaker Kurogane
10. Scrapped Princess

Samurai 7, Monster and Naruto should fit in somewhere, but.

0: Scrapped Princess? even Maloki sorta fits, if one squints.

[ambientlight]

i must admit that not of all these fandoms are represented by fic that is available online. :D

2. yes! does my bitterness show?
5. yes again!
6. nope, sorry. anyway, only one of them is psychopathic, i think.
7. yep. eheh, i figured it was obvious.
8. yes~
10. nope! although i suppose lots of anime would fit this summary.

0: no to both, alas.

would you like to name characters/pairings for the ones you got right, or shall i just throw random lines of fic at you? ^_^

[feliciter]

but even so, i know very little of most of your online fandoms.

(some of the summaries are applicable to more than one fandom, IMHO, but that is probably because I am insufficiently familiar with said fandoms.)

any lines and characters are welcome! ^^

[ambientlight]

two out of three-and-a-half main fandoms isn't bad! :D

( i like to think of that as a testament to recurring tropes in anime. )

maloki
No Norse god truly considers themselves free from the workings of fate, but for a while the seemingly unscripted randomness of life on Midgard had lulled Loki into a sense of safety, if not precisely security; he still regrets his failure to anticipate how rapidly events would move towards a conclusion, once they were finally set into motion.

yami no matsuei
"But you see," Tsuzuki says, still smiling, "all I ever wanted was for things to end."

mushishi
Ginko never says anything along the lines of but don't you see, your sight is enough-- any measure of sight is enough-- the world is bright and vibrant as it is, and you don't have to be able to see the mushi to know the beauty that life is capable of; sometimes Adashino almost wishes that he would.

peacemaker kurogane"In the future," Tetsu begins, and Susumu listens as Tetsu paints idealistic, unrealistic possibilities that (Susumu is certain) no

[kidboomerang]

I thought 2 would be Tactics, but checking the other comments informs me I am wrong. =x Same author, same sort of story though, haha.

Bonus 0. Weiss. Totally Weiss. In fact, BOTH series of Weiss. Kapitel AND Glühen.

I have no idea what the other series might be. XD *doesn't know your fandoms well enough*

[ambientlight]

ahaha, i didn't know that tactics worked like that too! oh kinoshita-sensei, why do you do this to your fans.

naturally, rue-kun, you are absolutely right. :D any characters/pairings you'd like, or can i inflict random weissfic on you? it's been ages.

( you've got more than a passing acquaintance with one or two of the other fandoms, but yeah... )

[kidboomerang]

... I'm still in love with Kyou and Sena, but if they're too hard, anythign you feel like! =3

[ambientlight]

it feels awkward writing kyou and sena for you, of all people*, but here goes. apologies for my abuse of punctuation and general bleh-ness.

Kyou knew it would be naïve to think that Sena was as optimistic as he appeared -- after all, they were assassins, and life was just one long mission, and simply being in Koua Academy would be enough to break the spirit of any teenager -- yet he wanted to believe that, all the same; surely, he thought, at least one of them must have had more to live for than revenge.

failing which, um-- have some random psychotic ken?

It wasn't just that Aya was the only one left who understood, or even that Ken needed someone to believe in (had always needed someone to believe in) -- Aya was there, that was all; a reminder of a past life to which Ken had grown too attached; a figure that carried with him, always, the promise of blood.

* this is a compliment! :o

:D

[acanti]

Ummm.

10. Naruto?

^_^;

[ambientlight]

afraid not! perhaps i shouldn't have used the word 'power' for #10.

[erushi]

#10 reminds me of animorphs, but that can't be it, right? actually, doesn't that apply to many fandoms?

because i really have no ideas, i shall just hazard guesses. erm. #1, #3 and #4, might any of them be fullmetal alchemist or yakitate japan? (not #3 for yakitate japan, though) is there a naruto somewhere too?

alright, i fail.

[ambientlight]

#10 reminded me of animorphs just after i finished writing it, too, but that's not the answer, sorry. ( curiously enough, i don't think i ever wrote any animorphs fanfic, despite that being my first fandom. ) and yes, it applies to far too many fandoms! thus my rather limited definition of fandom above. ^_^;;

i've never written for yakitate!! or fma, so nope. there -is- a naruto somewhere, though.

you do not fail! no one needs to fail. :D

[erushi]

#1 naruto
#4 samurai champloo

[ambientlight]

yes! any character/pairing preferences, or shall i just write random lines?
