I'M SO SORRY.

Okay! General notes first: I'm really easy to please! I like fluff, smut, angst, action, plot heavy stuff, AUs, you name it. So in the plot department, almost anything goes! If you can make the ending happy or hopeful, that's a plus, but not necessary! I also don't have topping preferences, so if you write smut, anything you like is fine.

These are my general aversions: I prefer no character death, though in the case of Assassin's Creed, I'm okay with it if that's what grips you. I don't do non or dub-con, and I'm not into most hard kinks, like watersports, scat, bloodplay, that sort of thing. Otherwise, the sky is the limit!

On to the pairings!


Assassin's Creed: Shaun/Desmond

This is the number one ship I'd like, but I'll be happy with anything, so if AC isn't your thing, don't worry about it!

I love the dynamic between Shaun and Desmond. They're so snarky with each other and I think they're a perfect match. These two are the kind of couple that wouldn't be overly sappy, but there's a strong undercurrent of their bond. I like the idea that Shaun is attracted to Desmond and hides it behind his wit - where it goes from there is up to you.


Hikaru no Go

Literally anything. I like my Hikago fluffy or deep and feelsy, and Touya is my favorite character, but I love all of the characters, so anything goes.


Fairy Tail - Jellal/Erza

What can I say about this ship other than that I have never seen two people be more meant for each other? This ship breaks my heart, especially since Mashima is so keen on keeping them apart. I would love to see their feelings realized, or to see something about how they feel being stuck apart. Their love is so strong, stronger than anything. Jellal even continued to think of her when possessed, when he has no memory, he kept her fighting from inside a cell where he should not have been able to reach her - they are soul mates. Their bond goes above all things, and I would be ecstatic to get something that really focuses on that.


Final Fantasy IX and Final Fantasy XII

I love all the pairings for FF. What I'd most like to see, regardless of pairing, is something that really utilizes the world they live in. One of the best things about FF is the rich world each game offers, unique in so many ways. I'd like something that really shows the world they live in and how that shapes who they are.


Persona 4 - Adachi Tohru/Dojima Ryotaro, Shirogane Naoto/Tatsumi Kanji, Kujikawa Rise/Tatsumi Kanji

Of these, my favorite pairing is Adachi/Dojima. I would prefer something that isn't quite fluffy - I'd like Adachi to keep true to character, but how you interpret that is up to you. I have no preference for whether this takes place during P4 or after it.

As for the two Kanji pairings, I just really love Kanji and would love to see him being cute in a relationship. He's adorable - I definitely prefer fluff for him. Kanji making handmade gifts is always a plus. Blushing and stuttering will win my heart fast.


REGARDLESS OF MY PREFERENCES ABOVE, I WILL CHERISH ANYTHING YOU WRITE FOR ME! THANK YOU SO MUCH, AND LET YOUR MUSE RUN WILD!

This is a question I've gotten a number of times, so I may as well write out my admittedly complicated feelings on this matter.

Maybe some back story is in order here. Feel free to skip this post. I am long-winded, as usual. XD

( Blah Blah Blah )

I was going to wait to post this until I had my thoughts all nice and organized for the overall comments on this FST, and then... well. I ended up sitting on it for weeks, all my song commentary done and the FST itself burned eternally into my memory, and still, all I can really come up with is OH DEAR GOD I LOVE YOSUKE, which really isn't helpful. ...Oh well. This is what I imagine Yosuke put together and, late one night when he was tired and anxious and tied in knots, he finally found it in himself to push send on the email to Yu he swore he'd never send, and then he spends the rest of his night, and morning, and afternoon, and so on, PANICKING.

Thanks to Ver for making me some quick cover art, since I don't have Photoshop right now. Thanks also to Very for her constant love and hand-holding. <3

So, here we go.

EDIT: Mediafire regularly pulls this down, so just let me know, and I will reupload and change the links for you. :D

( Things I Couldn't Say )

Sequel to Steadier Footing and a segueway into a larger piece that will come later.

( He could have stayed. )

Title: Steadier Footing
Author: hostilecrayon
Rating: PG
Pairing: Unrealized Yosuke/Yu
Warnings: Uh, Yosuke smokes?
Notes: Based off the song Steadier Footing by Deathcab for Cutie, which I was heavily inspired to write after discovering it on sodomquake's mix she made for something Yosuke would give Yu when he left. <3 This particular song made me cry, and then I had to write it. So. Here it is.

( It’s cold out; Yosuke can see his breath turn to fog in front of him, bursting out only to dissipate as quickly as it comes. )

In case you didn't know, the MoR contest entries are up for voting here! Somewhere in there, you'll find a story by me - that's right, I finally made it into an MoR contest! Of course, I won't tell you which category or give you any hints at all - what fun would that be? And since Sharon standardizes formatting like scene breaks and other such things that make it easy to find people like me who always use the same formatting, it's going to be tricky! You have to actually know my style to pick me out!

That's what this post is all about! Comments are screened - guess me, get a drabble set in my MoR contest entry's universe! <3

And of course, vote vote vote!

Happy hunting!

EDIT: Also, in the notion of fairness, I won't tell anyone if they're right or wrong until the voting ends. Besides, I can't write in my universe and post it before the voting ends, anyway. =P
