Love through Dimensions

Title: Winners Losers
Author:manaika
Series: New Prince of Tennis
Pairing: None, gen between Hara Tetsuya and Mouri Juuzaburou, and Hara Tetsuya and Taira Yoshiyuki (Hirazen) on the sideline.
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Shitenhouji and Rikkai senpais. That should be a warning enough. Also, I’m trying to be funny and make puns, using english and japanese - neither of which are my first languages. Feel free to shoot me to the moon.
Summary: “You ditched me.” “Winning with everyone else was more important.”

Disclaimer: I do not own Prince of Tennis or the characters, nope. I just love them to death and love even more to use them for my own purposes. ^^

Notes
I have been rping HaraTetsu (although I like to call him Tetsuya more and before you start: God NO! Kuroko is fucking Kuroko, not Tetsuya. Not in my head) for around a year now and have absolutely fallen in love with him and all the ‘old boys’ lot. Life with him is crazy and very interesting and slowly, I started researching all the first stringers and U-17ners and developed various headcanons, that I would like to present here. I especially focus on his relationship with Mouri, who is a former Shitenhouji (as stated on wikia) and as the 3rd OVA (which is not a manga canon episode, I admit, but I don’t really care at this point anymore?) says, Tetsuya lost to him in his first year. My headcanon says that they’ve been rivals ever since. But before that they were friends, due to another headcanon, but you’ll have to read this, if you want to know. ^^ Further notes at the end of the shot.
Another thing: The way I’m writing Shiraishi and Osamu might be by now heavily influenced by the way the magnificent Venice and the amazing DA play them. Saying just in case they seem familiar to you, although they don’t starr in this as much. ^^
I’m kinda experimenting with form again in this and while I’m not sure, I hope I do it at least moderate justice. Feedback and concrit is always appreciated.

I'm such a horrible, horrible person.

Here I go, promising you new chapters of "Price of your Heart" and I never post some. I feel horrible and I apologize profusely to all of you, my faithfull readers and those who have been actually looking forward to a new chapter. But, in my defense, I just haven't had any inspiration.
I don't want to give you any cheap excuses, but I think that if you've actually waited for so long, you deserve an explanation.

You see, I had this awful, horrible, blasted paper to write and it completely drained my energy. It wasn't fun, it was nothing I would have chosen as a topic, but I didn't really have much of a choice. After I was finished with it, I wanted to write the fanfic, but I was stuck on one scene and admittedly, just the thought of having to write something sent me into a fit of denial. Plus, after some time, I didn't feel anything when I thought about my challenge, it was like I completely lost my relation to it. And to be completely honest, I felt myself fall out of the fandom a little. Just a little. All I did the last week was watch One Piece, read fanfics and rp - a little - at pot_lj. Today I didn't think would be any different, but somehow I opened the newest chapter file and even wrote a bit. I went through the chapter and wrote some more and gradualy I felt the inspiration return. It gave me a positive charge and it seems I'll be able to write this weekend and next week. There is another paper coming up, but this one will be better (much more fun) and the presentation isn't due to mid-June.

I think I was really just drained and needed some time to recharge, collect myself...

Life had been...a bit confusing in the past months and I kept dragging some issues with me for a long time, but hopefully that's gone now.

I don't know when the next update will come, but hopefully soon. Hang on and thank you for still supporting my writing.

Disclaimer: I do not own Hakuoki and neither am I making money writing this. But it is still my work.

Set in the months between the end of Reimeroku and start of Hakuoki, I would say.

Part 1 (the plan) / Part 3 (the second try)

Name: Shinsengumi Family
Author: manaika
Fandom: Hakuoki
Word count: 4277 + 3919 (it could be actually considered my „less than 5000 words per part“ challenge)
Rating: PG-15?
Warnings: Uh...gender swap, I suppose? Cursing and questionable education methods? AU
Notes: You know like in Prince of Tennis there were these Chibi episodes with the Seishun family? Where every member of the team was switched to a tag of the family? Well, it’s generally the same idea here, just without the chibifieing. There’s a Shinsengumi family, there’s an Oni family and there are troubles and humor, I guess? Ah hell, I don’t know either what hit me. Actually, I was planning to write a one-shot for halloween (a spin-off from Price of your Heart, the one where Shinkawa-chan walks in on them, actually) when this popped into my mind and didn’t let go. This is what inspired me and this is what I imagine their relationship is like. Just...just tell me what you think.
Summary: Episode 1 – Just a random Saturday in the Shinsengumi family. Episode 2 – Halloween special

Disclaimer: Doth not own. Doth not make money using thus. Doth own the idea. Doth own the swap. Doth want to die.

Hi!

I'm sure some of you have already heard about this, but just for recapitulation:
The popular site fanfiction.net, has decided to take a charge against the M rated fanfic, that include MA content (over 18) and delete all of the fanfics containing such. Many of the fanfics that contain such scenes (sexual scenes, or any other scenes of the adult kind) have been going on for years - including some of mine. The authors work hard and long and have many devoted readers. Many of the fics aren't simply PWP, but include the adult themes, because it suits the, because it creates the right atmosphere, or various other reasons.
And it's not like they don't warn about such scenes. Most of them...most of us, do. If someone doesn't feel comfortable about reading such scenes, he is free to skip them. It's still the reader's choice what they read, as it is the writer's choice what they write.
I feel like fanfiction.net acting like that and banning the fanfics, is taking away this choice from me - from us.

So I decided to do something good and spread the petition, that fights against the removing of thosands of fanfic, that we have been working long and hard on. I have already signed it. Will you?

I recommend you sign it. Most of my fanfictions, including my current work I'm focusing on, "Price of your Heart" (which many of you have been reviewing to, and gave me positive feedback, that always made me want to continue and finish it), contain adult material (on the sideline, not even in the main focus of the work) and are thus endangered of deleting. Such a thing would probably demoralize me to no end. All of your kind reviews, the work of the past months...gone.

It's your choice whether you sign this petition, or not, but as a writer, I turn now to the fans of my works. To you, the fans of fanfiction, our supporters. We need signatures to save our fanfictions. If you want to continue to read them on fanfiction.net, please sign this. It would give me, just as the rest of us fanfiction writers massive feedback.

Thank you.



The link to the petition doesn't show, if I share it like this, but, if you go here: http://www.change.org/petitions/fanfiction-net-stop-the-destruction-of-fanfiction-net#share
and click the "share with website or blog" link, it'll show an embed code (this one, that doesn't work) and next to it the panel with the red buttom "sign petition". Click that, if you want to sign it.

A huge thank to those who have already done so, or will decide to do so.

THANK YOU!

Your fanfiction writer,
manaika

Summary: Made for 30kisses, list Nu/acquisition. Shinpachi and Sanosuke deal with their love, their lives and with the changing times. 05: Sanosuke and Shinpachi step forward and face their future.

Disclaimer: I do not own Hakuoki, or any of it’s characters. The creators do. My muse owns the idea of the fic, myself the work and the time I put into writing it. Credit me at least those, ok?

Notes
I know, it has been a long time, since I last updated and the chapter isn’t even that long. But. I had alot to do in February and in the first half of March and then I just needed a break. Needed to get my mind off the constancies and duties in my life and focus on something else. I made two amvs, two chibi-stories, gone shopping and copied some literature for my MA thesis. Two days ago, I got this urge, an inspiration, if you want, to write this shot and so, here I am. I just finished it and rather like it. It got inspired by a conversation between me and tokio_fujitaand many other things. I hope you all will like it as much as I am proud of it.

Set during Koufu, 2nd half of episode 14 and most of episode 15.

Title: The river flow
Author: manaika
Fandom: Black Blood Brothers
Pairing: Mochizuki Jiirou x Zelman Clock
Theme set: Delta
Rating: Teens (16 and above)
Warnings: Shounen-ai/love between males (nothing graphic, but hinted), vampire themes, war themes, character death, mentions of sexual scenes, hinted rape, appearences of Asura and Alice
Summary: Jiirou and Zelman in the many aspects of their relationship. Made for lj’s 1sentence, theme set Delta.

Disclaimer: I do not own Black Blood Brothers. If I did, Zelman would have died in Jiirou’s arms...if he had died at all.

Notes
So. Here’s my first Jiirou/Zelman challenge-fic-thingy. I have decided to make it myself even more of a challenge and not mention the actual prompts in the entire sentence. I hope the sentences make sense...some of them are over five lines long.

I have been jumping between the prompts pretty much, so it might look like they are pretty random – well, they are not. I divided them into groups an dthey make sense within them – if you looked, you would notice a certain connection.
The groups are: Air+Fire Earth+Water Wood+Metal; Beginning End; Summer+Winter Spring+Fall; New Old; Pretty Ugly Strange; Stable+Flexible Hollow+Solid; Dark Light; Peace War; Head Foot; Hope Despair; Snow Rain;Drink+Food Coffee+Apples; Honor Duty; Doors Welcome; Secret Taboo; Poison Green; Snakes Bugs Roses; Grave Regret; Lost Flying

20 are in Zelman’s POV, 20 in Jiirou’s and 10 are general, though some may seem as something Jiirou and some as something that Zelman would think.

I wasn't aware that I never posted this on my own account, so doing that now.

Author: manaika
Series: Hakuoki
Pairing: Shinpachi/Sanosuke
Rating: Teens (K+, PG-13, 14 and above),- see warnings
Warnings: Love between two males, mentions of smut, slight angst and relationship themes.
Summary: Made for 30kisses, list Nu/acquisition. #09: Even if Mondays are always the most angsty days in the life of High School teachers, you just have to pay attention to what your inner voice tells you, to guide you through your worries.

Disclaimer: I do not own Hakuoki, or any of it’s characters. The creators do. My muse owns the idea of the fic, myself the work and the time I put into writing it. Credit me at least those, ok?

Notes
Another SSL shot, 2nd in the arc, features Harada-sensei and Nagakura-sensei in their everyday life as teachers. Here I have to mention that english is not my first language, therefore many of the terms used in school, as the names of the gym utensils, are not known to me. I took a dictionary and translated them how I best found fit. If you find words that are incorrect, or not used in that sense and know the correct term, please tell me. I’m going to need it in the future.

It’s set more or less directly after the first one, the first day after Chirstmas break. In the last part they have been writing with the kids their mid-term exams. I wrote it before I got the information that the school year in Japan starts in April and ends in March. However, there are always some exams written, so you can take it that they were some random tests, or season-exams (if a thing like this doesn’t exist, I’m borrowing artistic licence and making it up). I’m also aware that there isn’t a Christmas break in Japan, but it suited the mood, so you can take it as another artistic licence.
