I knooooow. But it was never, I'M THE FOURTH MAGIC KNIGHT kind of nonsense, also Camisado and I did have a 'completely replace the girls' thing going on years and years ago. (Sorry for outing you, bb, but if I'm going down, you're going down with me)

I did! You were Umi, I was Fuu and my friend Helen was Hikaru. I'll have to fish them out sometime. It was when I had long hair and you had short hair, too! Dang.

So, I probably need to run through the entire list of my fanfics that were ever posted on FF.net:

Another AU Fic: where the girls attend my school, Ferio/Clef/Lantis are in sixth-form, and weird shit happens like Ferio getting shot (????? it was never followed up), a lemon that only Rev ever read, and my first long-time OCs, Ferio/Emeraude's aunt and uncle. On the plus side, I met Rev and down through this one!

Another AU Fic, the sequel: Nah.

I can't remember the title of this one but while I was walking the dog for a nice elderly lady in my village, whose son-in-law just happened to be Julian Fellowes (of Downton Abbey fame /namedrop), I based a whole fanfic around Fuu walking Ferio's grandmother's dog, and his dad being a Julian Fellowes equivalent, and god knows what else. It was FULL of OCs, Clef was Ferio's cousin, and Fuu's best friend was a girl called Stevie, and Hikaru and Fuu were only very briefly mentioned. Also inserted-Rev was dating Clef. Good times.

Lane's End: in which Ferio is a vet(erinarian) part-timing as an animal control/welfare officer and he rescues Fuu in his little airport shed after she is knocked over by a luggage truck (WHY DIDN'T HE CALL AN AMBULANCE???). She has amnesia. She goes to live with him, his border collie (Shippu), his one-eyed cat (Frankie), his duck (Nigel) and his Shetland pony (Clover). They fall in love. Clef owns the vets that Ferio works at, Presea is his wife but he's having an affair with Rev. Hikaru works for the RSPCA. Umi is part of the modelling agency Emeraude also works for. I appear in cosplay as Subaru from Tokyo Babylon. Nobody questions anything.

The Next Princess of Cephiro: Ferio and Fuu get married. Fuu gets pregnant. Some weird wind mage captures Fuu because he wants her to be his wife. Ferio and Clef rescue her. Nobody goes to Cephiro-jail. ?????

Townsend's Private Detectives: Based on, of all things, 70s Charlie's Angels and Smokey and the Bandit. Police thing??? Ferio is formerly totes gay with Lantis. He gets all angsty all the time. Umi hooks up with Ascot, Presea is Bosley and Clef is Charlie. There are F1 cars and quad bikes involved. Fuu gets pregnant and flees back to Japan from wherever the flip this thing was set. Ferio goes to Japan and wins her back. I don't fucking know.

Witchcraft: The girls are witches, Ferio has a Shaman King-style spirit accompanying him who is literally Vivian from Paper Mario, and his twin brother, oh my god the first appearance of Daijirou, has a cat thing called Doppelganger. They all attend a school that is v religious, so that all goes down really well. Fuu is well in love with Ferio but he's a stoner and comes from an angsty home (siamese twins separated at birth and omg reunited at school!!!), Daijirou's parents are literally Sally and Flynn from Home and Away, a doctor and a teacher. There's a halloween party where Ferio and Daijirou dress as hookers. Probably there was meant to be some sort of end game thing where they fight to save the world, but I never got that far. Also, the twincest, which Rev and I will never speak of again.

Finally, I can't remember the name, but it was one of my most recent pre-Last Train Home fanfics, and Rev and I fondly refer to it as "Teh Jolly Fic" because it was so damn downright depressing. Ferio has leukaemia, he saves Fuu from getting sexually harassed on the train and they start sort-of dating. Daijirou appears in this fanfic but he's away somewhere being absolutely terrified about donating marrow to save his bro. Then Fuu gets raped. WHY. WHY. I think I had teen depression when I wrote it. There are still ten chapters of this shit in my Dropbox and I'm afraid to read it.

Sorry for the huge post, but I have a lot of shame. xD

Edit: I also caught myself thinking up a super forced plot for a Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun fanfic recently, that even teenage Camisado, who wrote all this bullshit, would think was a bit contrived. Send help.

I might give it another go! I use both geeq_chiq and anotherholic now I've purged all the terrible posts from both of them, haha. I haven't decided which to use for what, yet.

Thanks for organising the thing, suz! I didn't post much due to life, but I want to retrospectively post some Umis and Fuus to match the Hikarus I drew sooo I'm gonna just go ahead and do that and assume it's fine.

Thank you everyone else for creating beautiful things! I enjoyed looking and and reading all your beautiful things.
(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

Despite being in hospital forever, Rev scoured the internet for, purchased, and orchestrated the postage of my birthday present, which arrived on Tuesday. \o/

Some of you have already seen it, but here it is, all of my childhood dreams coming true: imgur gallery

(Let's pretend that particular set hasn't only been out for a couple of years.)

Suz this is glorious thank you!!!

BLESS MOTHER NATURE, SOFT COSY HOODIE SEASON IS BACK.

I handed in my last assignment for this university module! I just have to revise for my exam in a month now. And start two more modules before then. But the end is in sight for this one, haha.

Mils, if you do want to support mobile, Tapatalk is pretty good and it supports SMF.

I'll be joining for Fuu/Ferio week, since that nicely coincides with my latest university assignment being done with!

OOOOooooOOooh!! If anyone wants to play/follow me, I am anotherholic on Words with Friends and Camisado on Duolingo. I don't really do much in the way of competitive games other than WwF, haha.

I didn't like coffee at all (a bit like Somariel, although I would eat chocolate-coated coffee beans and coffee cake!) but now I love it, and I mostly drink it with heated milk and no sugar or syrup. I like hazelnut or amaretto syrup the best if I have to have it!

My boyfriend and I make this locally blended coffee - we like the Columbian Medellin Supremo and the Peruvian Cafe Feminino blends. We buy grounds because we can't be bothered buying/using a grinder, lol. We're currently using one of these, which I highly recommend. :D It's intended to make espresso with, but we fill it for four people and split it between two mugs into the hot milk.

We pretty much only drink one coffee each, in the morning. I drink decaf tea (milk, no sugar!) the rest of the day at work, because I was addicted to the caffeine in tea and suffered a massive two weeks of withdrawal headaches after abstaining for dental procedure reasons. Oh my god.

We try not to drink too much coffee because my boyfriend's dad has previously consumed so much coffee in a week that he went to the doctor with palpitations. Don't overdo it, guys! xD

I swear to god, if I get to Japan next April and there's no special Rayearth merchandise I'm going to be very upset. xD

I know your thread has been around for ages and I'm just getting there now, so I'm sorry!

I'm the worst at reviewing, but I love the new design and I love your content. :D I enjoyed reading the entire "about" section!

Just wanted to offer up the screenshots in this post if you want them, no need to credit or whatever, just grab what you want and use them. :D

I'll add some SEAT ones! (Spanish version of Volkswagen). They're mostly Spanish place names so they're actually pretty cool.

• Leon ("lay-on")
• Ibiza
• Cordoba
• Toledo
• Altea
• Marbella (the double L would be pronounced as a Y)
• Arosa
• Inca
• Alhambra (technically it's the royal palace)

There's also "Cupra" (coop-ra) which I really like the sound of, which is a model name for extremely sporty versions of the above. xD

Excuse me because this reply of mine might be quite big. xD I had to reassess all of this for the big fic I wrote during NaNo a few years ago.

I kind of use the best parts of the canons and mix them. For example, even from the OAV, I use the story that Hikaru is originally from Hokkaido. (This is mentioned very briefly in the dub; I have never seen the Japanese version!) Otherwise, I use the manga as the basis for everything, plus some fun things from the anime.

• Like suzanami, Ferio gave Fuu the rings, not the orbs, and Presea is still alive. Sierra is not a Thing.
• Mokona is always the creator! He doesn't appear very much/at all in post-series II fics.
• Nova never happened because that entire arc in the anime just annoyed me. (I'm sorry.)
• The girls did meet the representatives from the three other countries, per the anime.
• There's that little side comic that explains Hikaru defeated her father and he went travelling, which has always stuck in my mind as canon too.
• The girls can travel to and from Cephiro freely as they can at the end of the manga. In my headcanon they have to keep paying for entry to the Tokyo Tower to do this, but do one day manage to get there from Shiba Park and end up somewhere else.

I decided from Kuu's uniform that she attends CLAMP School, and that Fuu will follow her there. (In my fic, Umi and Hikaru apply there for senior high too.) I also have the headcanon that it's her in CLAMP School Detectives that lost her pet peacock. xD Oh, and I also think that the uniform in the OAV (similar to Kuu's in the anime/manga) is also CLAMP School.

Um, I guess this is all headcanon. xD Myself and Revolutionnaire have our own fanon, you could say. I hope she doesn't mind me mentioning that we're fleshing out our backstories for Ferio and Clef, respectively, at the moment.

Hi everyone! I'm Camisado, feel free to call me Cami, Kelly or Marina (the latter two are my real names!). I'm from the south of England. I've loved Rayearth for approximately ten years, and met my best friend - Revolutionnaire, also at this board - through writing Rayearth fanfiction and posting it on FF.net. I also met Down there, as far as I remember!

Rev and I started putting together our own Rayearth fan website, but I have the shortest attention span in the world. I had planned to draw a comic of "life in Cephiro" (post series 2 of the manga) once a week-ish there, but that never happened either.

My other favourite CLAMP series' are xxxHolic and Tokyo Babylon (though I never got into Tsubasa or X). I also enjoy Pok?mon games, The Legend of Zelda, and am currently writing an original, local story for NaNoWriMo that I hope to turn into a comic.

This looks like a lovely community, I look forward to meeting you all!
