The Inner Workings of a Chibi.
Nano novel teaser: Double H

So for those of you who are genuinely curious about my writing outside of Persona 4 and fandom, here’s a teaser to what I’m working on now.


Short Synopsis:  Gable and Avery have been together all through college, something that Gable’s parents have no knowledge about.  As the two lovers get closer to graduation, they’ve made plans on moving in together and having a future with one another.  Gable needs to tell his parents soon, but he’s worried about their reaction, especially since Avery’s parents have completely disowned him over the fact that he’s gay.  Gable often tells Avery to not be around when his parents are visiting, putting off their inevitable meeting.  Avery has no problem with it, still remembering the day his parents turned their backs on him.  

Sadly, Gable has no idea that this time, when he tells Avery to make himself scarce, it will be the last time he will ever see his partner.  

Avery goes missing and is found a week later, dead.  As Gable cries himself to sleep he thinks of the last time he saw Avery, trying to cling to the good memories of his boyfriend.  Unbeknownst to Gable his dreams are not like ours.  His dreams seem to have an effect on time itself.  The next time he opens his eyes he’s back in his room, a week before Avery’s disappearance.  This gives him a chance to save his lover’s life, but is he strong enough to use this power to save Avery and stop a killer who targets young, gay men? 

(yeah, because I can’t just have a romance story, or just a gay romance story, or just a story about being afraid to come out… it has to be a supernatural murder thing, too, cuz… you know, that’s how my brain works  ^^;;;  If you want to leave feedback, that would be wonderful, since this is a work in progress)

Last year I didn’t make it to the 50,000, but Nano definitely helped me work out the kinks of my first novel, which I’m working to get published right now.  Here’s the information on my second book idea, for those who are curious.  I’m thinking about posting bits and pieces to tumblr, which I didn’t do last year… then again I didn’t have tumblr last year  ^^;;;

Just in case if any of my followers are actually curious about my writing when it comes to original works, not just Kanji and Naoto  :)

I also have a joint story with my partner that we’re working on together.  She writes it and I edit it, adding bits here and there.  With Nano last year, we got a lot of the details for the first story worked out, and we’re working on getting that one published, too.  This second story is a continuation of the first, and we have like, seven books planned?

So yeah, happy Nano, happy writing, and things  :)

Nanowrimo!

So I’m totally doing it this year, did it last year too (it helped me get through a bunch of my novel that I’m trying to get published).  So I’m not sure how many headcanons I’m going to get done since I want to try and focus on Nano and the new story idea I have.  Though knowing my muses, this message is pointless, and Kanji and Naoto are going to come up with ideas inside my head  ^^;;; 

I’m thinking about posting links to my progress bar and stuff, except work computer doesn’t like the Nano site, so I’ll have to do it from home.

This random message brought to you by the letter W for WRITING! 

Headcanon: How Kanji Tatsumi was proposed to twice by the same detective

Look a proper headcanon that isn’t me wondering about life and the world and things  ^^;;;  So we’ve covered Naoto asking Kanji out on a date… sort of.  Now it’s time to cover how she proposes… sort of.

Warnings:  Completely work safe, MARRIAGE PROPOSALS, girl senpais cooking, smoke detectors, high heels, and MARRIAGE PROPOSALS!

Fun fact:  The smoke detector part comes from true facts!  One day, it went off randomly in our house because the battery was low, and we couldn’t figure out how to get it to shut up  ^^;;;

Headcanon: In which nothing is petty, Shirogane, especially when it comes to matters of the heart

So this isn’t a request one (still need to finish those) but I had this thought in my head while at work (somehow this came to mind at work, I dunno ^^;;;)  Usually, when it comes to stories of jealously, it’s Kanji jealous of Souji, or someone, or something when it comes to Naoto.  Rarely have I seen it be the reverse, of Naoto being jealous because someone is interested in Kanji.

So I thought I’d shake things up a bit  :)

Warning:  Completely worksafe, fairly short since I get off in like twenty minutes, lots of Naoto arguing with herself, made up female character-chan hitting on Kanji, and cheese fries.  Always, ALWAYS about the cheese fries!

Something I posted on facebook this morning

I was showing a girl at work some pictures of the things I make, like the woodburning and stuff. She said, “Wow that’s really cool. I wish I had a talent.” I let that process in my head for a while and I realized… I wish people wouldn’t say that. Just because I know how to do something doesn’t mean you’re not talented. Everyone’s talented in some way, shape, or form, I just happen to be a creative, artistic person. That doesn’t make anybody less talented than me in any way :) I know it was said as a compliment, it usually is, but next time I think I want to say, “You are talented in your own way, I’m sure of it.”

And that is your randomly sappy/inspirational post of the morning? Ugh that’s what happens when I don’t get much sleep -_-

That moment when you have downtime at work and have access to a computer, so you decide to write a bit of your story.  As you write your muses are going at it, giving you inspiration and telling you which way the story should go.

Then you see the signs.

A kiss, here.

A touch there.

Oh snap your muses want you to write a love scene, but you’re at work so you can’t, but they insist!  Oh god muses why?!  Now is not the time!  This wasn’t even in the story’s outline where is this even coming from?!

How does she come up with all of those delightful ideas?

Because a couple of people asked, here’s the secret to how I come up with my headcanons and my writing process in general.

1.  *wakes up in the morning*  I FEEL LIKE WRITING, YAY!  (if it’s a headcanon: Kanji and Naoto are the bestest, I can’t wait to share my ideas for them!)

2.  *watches Price is Right*

3.  *fixes hot chocolate*

4.  *nods off for a bit*

5.  *pets kitties*

6.  *watches random T.V.*  You are NOT the father, ah Maury, you always get more ridiculous by the day.

7.  *checks tumblr*

8.  *checks facebook*

9.  *checks email*

10.  *debates updating deviantart*

11.  *checks etsy*

12.  *checks tumblr*

13.  *watches more random T.V.*  People’s Court time!

14.  Oh I should probably start getting ready for work-… OMG PLOT BUNNY MUST WRITE!  Original story I’ve been working on I finally know how to end the chapter!  (or if it’s a headcanon: Kanji and Naoto having smexy times!  Or adorable times!  Or just times in general!  Their story must be told to the world!)

15.  *furious writing timez*

16.  Shit shit shit gotta get ready for work!

17.  BUT WRITING!

18.  MUST WRITE!

19.  MUST.  WRITE!

20.  If I take a quick shower I can still leave on time so I can write for approximately five and a half more minutes.

21.  *writes for fifteen more minutes*

22.  O.K.  I’m at a good stopping point (or if its a headcanon I’ve most likely finished it), I should-… shit work!  I’ll be sure to write more when I come home!

23.  *spends five more minutes rereading what I wrote to make sure it’s quality (and posting it on tumblr if its a headcanon)*

24.  I was supposed to do something… craaaaaaaaaaaaaaap work!  

25.  *somehow makes it to work on time*  O.o

26.  *comes home after work*

27.  *eats something*

28.  *watches more random T.V.* Ah 30 Rock, you keep me amused.

29.  *opens document to continue writing*

30.  *checks tumblr*

31.  *checks facebook*

32.  *checks email*

33.  *updates deviantart*

34.  *checks etsy*

35.  *checks tumblr*

36.  *yaaaaaawn*  I should go to bed, have to work tomorrow-… OMG PLOT BUNNY MUST WRITE!  MUST WRITE!!!

37.  If I go to sleep in approximately thirty minutes I can still get a good amount of sleep.

38.  *stays up for two more hours, staring at the document because I’m too tired to write, while constantly checking tumblr to try and stay awake*

And that’s how I write things.  In conclusion, clearly, they write themselves.

Headcanon: in which Naoto Shirogane gives in to her male urges

A while ago someone asked if I had anymore headcanons about Naoto and her male inclinations.  Well, here’s another one  :)  I like Naoto all around, boy, girl, whatever. And I feel that, you know, after posing as a boy for so long, even if she’s o.k. with being a woman, those feelings still have to be there.

Leave it to Kanji to indulge Naoto.  

Definitely, DEFINITELY not worksafe.

Headcanon: in which Naoto wishes that she had looked up the criteria of sleepovers

Inspired by this fanart here by the lovely krisrix and because I felt like writing something a bit naughty (what can I say, sometimes the OTP wants some action).
