End of Round 3

[yokozuki.livejournal.com]

End of the round from 9/25-10/2...


First, velvetgunfire wrote a lovely, funny, and very sweet tale for no. 4 -
The inappropriate use of mangoes, Kagrra, Izumi and Nao(/Shin). I'm seriously craving mango muffins now... as well as wanting to glomp her Izumi. ♥

mimei took on three prompts in two fics, brave girl.
For no. 3, Anaesthetic, Plastic Tree, Ryuutarou/Tadashi. Sitting on floors of trains, a kiss war of sorts, bittersweet and shiny. I wish there were more. *puppydog eyes*
For no. 2 and no. 4, Skin, Luna Sea, Sugizo/Ryuichi. It makes me incoherent to recall bits of, let alone read (for something like... the eighth time, it would be so far?). Please to be checking out the twistedly delicious Sugichi. *_*

...aaaaaand sugarless_666 went after no. 4 also, with Peace and Smile fic~
Untitled, but with mangoes; inappropriate ones, even. Isshi/Miyavi.
"absolutely love." -- yokozuki
"a random mango indeed!!" -- velvetgunfire
"disturbingly compelling." -- mayo_polyphony



Since it looks like screaming_003 has been off lj this week and didn't see me tag her... I'll tag someone else. How about... *pulls up userinfo, closes eyes, and pokes screen* ekucbbw, isn't that screaming_003 again? ;_; The fates want her... alas... *tries again* sugarless_666! I know you'll see this. Yay. All you, baby.


I'll add the requests here and comment on the original post as I get 'em done. ^_^ It's... gonna be a little while, but no worries. ♥ Thank you for playing!! ^___^

Edit 10OCT: One request done. X3 Swallow, for mimei, Luna Sea and "antidote."
