Fanfiction / Fuu-centric drabble: ''Chlorine''
March 16, 2006, 05:41:43 AM
I posted this over at LJ, but it amuses me. So I'm posting it here, too. Because my brain is currently fried from classes and I can't come up with a good topic thread yet XD;
I have got to ignore these cracky plot bunnies. I swear.


CHLORINE

"Ohh nooooo..."
Umi turned, still wringing out her hair. "What are you moaning about, Fuu?" She could only see the other girl from the back. Fuu had just begun to unwrap the towel from her head and was staring into the mirror, her face conveying pure horror. "Fuu?"
"I am never going swimming ever again!" Fuu lamented, clutching the towel as if her very life depended on it.
"What? Why?"
Fuu tore the towel from her head and whirled to face Umi, her green eyes wide in dismay. "This is why!" She pointed a finger at her usually cornsilk-blonde hair. It was... well, it matched her eyes now.
"The... the chlorine stained your hair?" Umi's mouth fell open and didn't shut. "We haven't been swimming that much!"
"Apparently it was enough!" Fuu exclaimed, burying her face in her hands.
"Whoa, Fuu, chill!" Umi stood next to her friend, trying to soothe her. "It'll fade!"
"What will Ferio think?!"
"He'll think you're trying to look like him." Umi ducked the arm that swung at her. "Sorry!"
The sound of the door shutting behind them made them turn. Hikaru entered the room, returning from her shower. "Fuu-chan..." she said, inquisitive eyes wide. "Are you trying to be like Umi-chan and me?"
"Pardon?"
"Your eyes match your hair now, just like ours."
Umi flopped on the bed and continued drying her hair with a towel, finally having the room to herself. Fuu would probably tire out before she caught Hikaru.

Quote from: Milieva on March 16, 2006, 05:07:22 AMAnd those of us old fans of your fanfiction know what "horrible fic" that one Hikaru and Umi one is from.  I really did want to know how that ended.  *sniffle* Poor Fuu....

Actually, that illustration is from an even older one!
Yeah, the one you're referring to started getting pretty OOC and annoyed me. I had some vague ideas where I wanted to go with it, but it never worked out, apparently. I left it up for a long time before deciding it was just too embarrassing. Though I have copies of most of my... LOVELY old fic. XD

General Rayearth Discussion / Re: Favorite

The season two anime ticked me off. It bored me to death, mostly because it dragged on and on. For the amount of episodes, the backup characters were neglected, IMHO. The series has such rich characters, even the backup ones being very deep and developed...

But it was all "Hikaru is emo about this" and "Hikaru's got a problem" and "What can we do to help HIKARU?"
It really affected how I felt about her character! Hikaru's definately one to get depressed easily, but not wallow in it like she does! Also, while the first season had Hikaru as the focal character, Umi and Fuu had balanced screentime. Umi and Fuu got much more attention in the manga, too. The second season anime was all about Hikaru, and I was really bothered by that.

It has a lot of good points, of course. Nova is an awesome concept, although the thing with Debonair was handled cheesily, I think. The Knights developed relationships with the invading countries, which I think is very cool. And my favorite F/F scene... one of my favorite scenes for them indivifually as well... was when Ferio rescues Fuu from Fahren *3* Soo... yeah.


The art in the manga is so high-quality and becomes absolutely STUNNING by the end of the series. I miss a lot of the character development that was in the anime, but I'd have to pick the manga. <3


A lot of people didn't like the OVA, but I LOVE AU stories, which is what it is. I had to watch it through a couple times to understand it (watching it at 3 AM with terrible subtitles does not help) but I really like what they did with it. And while I dislike Clemi, I find it to be actually in-character in the OVA, thus, it doesn't upset me. XDD

Characters & Relationships / Re: Pairings!
March 16, 2006, 04:29:08 AM
I'm really anal about my MKR pairings. I don't know why.

Fuu/Ferio is my ultimate OTP. Has been since like November 2000. *blush* Yeah... I've been known for that for years. XD Probably will be forevah, and I do not mind one bit. :B Updating the shrine this past month kinda sent me crashing rather violently back into the fandom. I gotta stop getting Fuu/Ferio plot bunnies. It's unhealthy. :o

Fuu/Ferio used to be the most popular pairing a couple years ago, but with all the new blood coming into the fandom, it's changed to Clef/Umi, much to my dismay. I know everyone loves it, but I swear CLAMP was smoking something when they came up with it. I find it absolutely out-of-character in the anime, especially if the feelings are reciprocated. I tried really hard to see it but I cannot. I've read like... two Clemi fics where the interaction between them didn't make my OOC radar go red. I know... everyone disagrees with me. D:
I ship Umi/Ascot more out of it being the alternate than because the pairing makes me wibble, although when it's written really well (which is harder to do than one might think), it does make me smile. ^-^

I hate Hikaru/Lantis as a pairing because she deserves someone with an actual personality. Her feelings all stem from deep-rooted guilt, I say!!! I do like the Lantis/Hikaru/Eagle love triangle of sorts for plot-type reasons. People occasionally handle it SO well.
I like Hikaru/Zazu. I wouldn't wish it in canon, but as an AU or whatever? It amuses me so. Lantis, especially in the anime, makes me want to put him in a field full of puppies and kittens and butterflies playing while "It's a Wonderful World" plays in the background... just to see if the idiot will PRETEND to smile. Or maybe say something less emo and deep. Augh! Hikaru/Lantis my BUTT. XD;

The Caldina/Lafarga pairing came out of NOWHERE, but it works for me. Doesn't do anything for me, but works.

The whole Sierra plot is on crack, and while I find the Presea-in-love-with-Clef thing stupid, I find the Sierra one even more annoying. More than Clemi. ;)

And when I see Primera/Mokona fics, a part of me dies.

Music / Re: What are you listening to?
March 16, 2006, 03:54:09 AM
I haven't had "Namida no Chizu" since I came to school last semester, so last weekend I got it off my bedroom computer to put on my lappy... I've been listening to it a ridiculous amount of times. XD I cannot help it. Ferio is so sexy and his image songs are SO him. <3 <3 <3

My Fuu/Ferio shrine is 5 years old today and I updated the galleries, the fanart, and did some general tweaking to polish the site up. :)

Fanart / most of my MKR art~ all in one place!
March 15, 2006, 03:40:26 PM
I have done so much MKR fanart it ain't funny.
Since late 2000, I've been drawing 'em like crazy. Mostly Fuu.

So this past weekend, I put it all in one place. At the moment there's 137 drawings there, from old, crappy doodles to new, finished pieces. It's probably 80% of the MKR art I've ever done. Whoa. o_o; Comments are love. Just.... don't critique the old stuff. For the love of God. XDD I'd be harsher on it, anyway. XD;

My LJ username is suzanami (that's my username almost everywhere). There's all sorts of nonsense there, so you might only be interested in posts concerning MKR:

http://suzanami.livejournal.com/tag/mkr


I also make LJ icons at http://starshapedcandy.livejournal.com and of course, there are MKR icons there.
Fanfiction journal is http://community.livejournal.com/getlosthood and contains MKR fic, as well as others.

I blame one Justin Austin for my MKR obsession. He was in my Basic Art class sophomore year in high school and we chatted a lot. He liked Tenchi Muyo!, too, and we both drew anime. He loaned me the first volume of the MKR manga (and showed me the gorgeous copy he'd drawn of Hikaru recieving her fire magic *-*) and I was instantly hooked. Line, sinker and all. I got on the Internet and looked it up and went out the very next day to Suncoast to buy the first VHS. I saw through the entire series in a few months and then eventually read the rest of the manga.

Holy cow, it's been over five years. And though I've taken time the past couple years (since I graduated in '03, really) on other fandoms, I recently crashed HARD back into MKR. (I blame the fact that I've been working on my Fuu/Ferio shrine for its fifth birthday) Heck, I'd still be at this forum if I hadn't, but now I kinda picked up back where I left off in high school: MKR = <3 omgomgomgggg lawl.


I am ob. sessed. with Hououji Fuu in every way... except sexually, I suppose. o_o;
She's the most beautiful girl in all of anime/manga, and possibly the most beautiful character ever. I'm only extremely biased. :x I think I've drawn her more times than both my persona characters combined. Like, hundreds of times in five years.
Fuu/Ferio is my OTP to end all OTPs. Has been for years. I think it always will be. Ferio is my prince. Fuu is my hero. Umi is a goddess. And the Autozam crew needs to come to my place and have a candy party. <3

Ohman... I think there were 98 MKR fics when I started at FFnet. I get so nostalgic.



And I think Cephiro is THE name for the general MKR fandom gathering. Not original... but it just HAS to be the name. :D
