[look who bit the bullet and practiced with fanfic?]

measuring time · [look who bit the bullet and practiced with fanfic?]

So. Yes. I decided to use these as practice, again. I am uncertain as to why, but in any case, I have written about ten at this point, and saved them (fearing LJ, of course) on fanfiction. I switched my journal between then and now, and thus am known as "we_murmured," and known around fanfiction.net as "Cages for Bluebirds."

(Laustic? If you had any suspicions about that being me, you were correct. I am quite the sneaky writer, yes?)

In any case, I will link them here.
(Yes, they are all Tsuzuki and Hisoka. No, I'm not "slashing" them. They're very versatile in my mind. I dislike declaring them a part of a specific role.
I think dominance is relative.)

on setting new fires
rating; PG-13 or T.
summary; When we die, do we ever come back? Do we come back the same, or with darker skin and wider eyes? Do we remember? Do we forget? Hisoka doubts, and others know.
notes; Just the exploration of a concept.
chapter(s); Two.

ad augusta per angusta (to high places by narrow roads)
rating; PG-13 or T.
summary; A very short continuation of: on starting new fires, Hisoka contemplates the differences between then and now, and his hopes to bridge them. Tentatively in progress.
notes; I couldn't let the idea go. Ahem.
chapter(s); One of an unknown number.

the tail end of seasons
rating; Um. Very hard R overall. (No, implying sex doesn't bother me. Neither does writing it. I actually use the "correct" terms, too. I'm a bit, how we say, against purple prose. Urgh. I like nitty-gritty, without over doing it. But, yes, you don't have to worry about that this time. Its just implied.)
summary; There are seasons in every aspect of life, and this is how Hisoka and Tsuzuki cope with them together, apart, and alone.
notes; Oh. What happened to Hisoka's foot in the second part? Happened to my foot. Except I had no shoes on and jumped off a fifteen foot ledge into a water-filled quarry. Yes. And it was on shale. Native Americans made knives from it, just to give you all an idea of how sharp it is. Oh, and yes, it happened this summer. Yes.
chapter(s); 2/4.

begin/linger/end
rating; Hard R. Seriously. Implied oral sex. Aha ha. (Being honest!)
summary; Tsuzuki cites ten scenes and eleven reasons as to why he lives.
notes; Just for fun. Not really sappy, not really dark. Just like life, really. Very imperfect.
chapter(s); One. And it is done, actually.

ashes, ashes
rating; PG-13 or T. Some gory images, but nothing too terrible.
summary; In the days following Kyoto, Hisoka deals with healing, lucidity and the confrontation with Tsuzuki that he has been needing to have.
notes; I actually don't like this one all that much, but everyone else seems to love it. I'm boggled, honestly. It is just like Nabokov and Lolita. Ugh.
chapter(s); One. And it is complete.

from the mouth of language
rating; PG-13 or T.
summary; Three scenes. Three different occasions. Three times Hisoka and Tsuzuki question and resolve what their relationship really is about.
notes; This is as sappy as I get. I am serious.
chapter(s); One. And it is done.

lulling storms
rating; Aw. PG or K+.
summary; When Tsuzuki wants to discuss the occurrences of a previous mission, what will be Hisoka's reaction? (Especially at two in the morning.)
notes; Awkwardness abound! And imperfect kisses? Nothing sexier, seriously.
chapter(s); One. And it will stay at one.

we become seas
rating; PG or K+.
summary; A small discussion between Tsuzuki and Hisoka often betrays something much more.
notes; We are all seas. Fini.
chapter(s); One. And it will remain that way.

And:

A surprise Loveless cameo!
(Sparing you all the Yamato and Kouya one, unless you want to read the one about the absolutely lovely lesbians. <3)

never better
rating; PG or K+.
summary; When insomnia becomes an issue, Ritsuka lacks a solution. Or does he?
notes; ...
chapter(s); One. And it will remain as such.

That's all for now.

I've been keeping with reading your fics on ffnet. Unfortunately, I haven't been reviewing much since I came back to the US. I have to deal with dial up now (I had broadband in Japan) and everything is so freakin slow!

Oh wow, I thought you had disappeared from fic writing forever as usual your style is beautiful and ambient and full of intangible depth, it's hard to grasp but yet its like reading a feeling you can understand inside.

O.O

I'm not making any sense am I? I've just come from reading the first one--which kept me in my seat and stopped me from eating thankyou very much miss talent--but I'm in anticipation of reading more.

And btw, my main phiolosphy is relativiety. But I think development of thought often comes from bias, narrow-mindedness and sometimes plain idiocy. (Thus why I will sometimes may some stupid or don't really think to encourage debate and arguement--the amazing intelligent things people say in the passion of their views can make you really learn something)

Eitherway, good to have your fic's back.

Thank you. Hahaha. I'm sorry I'm always so late to responses, but college and otherwise the horrors of the Holiday season has thrown me through a loop. (I am not at all pleased about having to work Christmas Eve, either.)

Read the second, LOVED it! Great to know there's gonna be more. (burst out laughing at the end), third one was also wonderful!! And I just can't wait for more from you!! *squeal*
