I had a cage, but they broke out awhile ago. Some of those suckers are old and have gotten damn strong...

What's the challange going to be, exactly?

Knights... :-? How strange is this: I had a pretty gorey dream about a long blonde haired prince (NOT Milliardo) killing the "King of the Giants" in Midieval times about 3 weeks ago.

I plan to write a chapter fic involving said scene - it was pretty good, albeit extremely bloody... Let's just say that the most memorable thing about the dream was the color red...

My mind is a sick, sick little world all its own...

I like the "Knight Before Christmas" idea; I don't write much Heero and Relena even though they are one of my favorite couples because there's already so much out there about them that I feel the need to help the other couples "catch up." ^_^ But I think I could certainly whip something up out of this challange. I love Midieval times; it's always appealing. The only other AU era I find always interesting is the Western theme. ^_^ - Probably becuase of that one piccie with them all decked out in Western wear.

Make the whole website flash green and red! It will hurt everyone's eyes but it will be worth it.....because it will be totally hot.

That would be hillarious, though I have no idea how much work that would take to code.

:-? Are you still looking for lines to incorporate into the fics? Here are some good ones:

"We have all been frightened by the the sound of footsteps on the pavement of our lives." - Disturbed, "Pain Redefined"

"Forgivness is the ultimate sacrifice." - System of a Down, "Sad Statue" (Does this one scream Trowa and Midii to anyone else??)

"Welcome, to the soldier side, where theres no one here but me.... People all grow up to die, there is no one here but me." - System of a Down, "Soldier Side Intro"

"Graciously you go through my closed heart's artery." - System of a Down, "Blue"

So, I was just looking up lyrics to songs I've got stuck in my head, and I found the lyrics to System's new album. This song I linked below is soo Trieze; I was like, "Woah..."

I think that a citrus thing would be good as it is a season of *clears throat* giving *wink* and all that but im also sure that I'd love to try my hand at some 1xR

Im mainly in the inukag thing right now but it may be fun to try something different.

Lemme know what yall decide

Peace!

We're going to do a primarily 1xR, but accepting other universes, challenge called The Knights Before Christmas (I think that's our title). The only requirement so far is that someone has to be a knight in it, and that's a little open to interpretation. If the interpretation is a little loose, though, I want to see (either in the fic or author's notes) an explanation for why the entry adheres.

I'm still taking suggestions for whether we require a particular 'line' to be included in the fics - or objects. Like... Fic must include a sword, a hawk, and the line "I'd lay down my life for you, my love."

That's just a random example I came up with off the top of my head. So, I've set up the 2 forums for the 2 challenges (1 Christmas, 1 LEMON + Holiday) - I intend to officially "start" them this Tuesday Nov 15.

I've set up a new theme for the board (color scheme, etc.), but I need a banner, and to finish adding a few of the updates to the software. Anyone who wants to preview it can go to their profile page and select the theme: Elveron (I'll change the title later).

I also need some buttons...

:-? I mentioned earlier that I'm already doing a Knight tale, but mainly ZxN. The other main pairing is HxR; can that work or do I need to do another story for them? - I don't mind doing another story, but it'd be nice if I didn't have to considering that I want to participate in this.

And WHYYYYYY would I choose ONE story if I can have TWO? (esp. one without Zechs)

*pokes Jackie in a sore spot*

Yes, I will keep harping on the Zechs thing. I hope you don't take it personally, it's just me teasing.

T.T

All right; I offically do not hear Relena's voice reading your posts; you're too evil! :razz:

Thanks for the extra "homework," Rose...

And just to spite you, I will have Zechs in it somewhere. Mwa! ha ha! hahahahaha!!
