[mod] further upheaval (just kidding!) (sort of)

[omoikkiri.livejournal.com]

Note that these changes will not take place until the end of this round (so after rockthecliche and dancerdreams2 have their turns)!

1. We are going to do a re-shuffle just for the hell of it!
Here is the proposed new writing order:

team 1:
miquilis (Leader)
noella84
mousapelli
kira_shadow
ryogrande
dreamweavernyx

team 2:
crazy_otaku911 (Leader)
omoikkiri
orange_c_c
dancerdreams2
shadow_fictions
rockthecliche
hatenaimirai_e

If you have a burning need to be put elsewhere, let us know! XD Also, since we're not holding new sign-ups, this is also a good time to drop out for those of you who are too busy to write regularly. No pressure either way, just an opportunity for some mobility. :3 (New people are free to sign up whenever, as usual, though doing so now before we start the new round with the new posting order would be helpful for us organizing!)

2. Rosie, Rin and I wanted to propose the idea of having themed rounds. Just off the top of my head, it'd be something like "Team 1 write something having to do with/inspired by devils, Team 2 write something having to do with/inspired by angels" and then the whole team's drabbles for one round will be like that. Or else it could be "Team 1 must include the word 'flowers' in their drabble somewhere" ... basically just a twist to keep things challenging. This is ENTIRELY up to vote though, and if people feel uncomfortable doing this then we won't. The two teams' themes don't need to match either, since we obviously don't write at the same speed. And we could also have Team 1 write with a theme and Team 2 write without, etc etc. Reply and let us know if you are: interested, neutral, or against this idea please! Further suggestions are totally welcome!


Note that these changes will not take place until the end of this round (so after rockthecliche and dancerdreams2 have their turns)!

We love the upheaval.

Should also say that if anyone knows anyone thinking of signing up now would be the time to do that too.

*wants teams to be even still okay i'll stop*

Go to sleep! ♥
Kitayama has a bedtime story for you, even *points to icon*

[miquilis.livejournal.com]

Tell me the story Kitayama :3

[omoikkiri.livejournal.com]

Once upon a time, an idol named Taisuke had a teddy bear that he named Tiffany. He used this bear as a prop to gyrate against during his concerts, and she was well-received. However, the concert tour had to end one day, and so Tiffany was left without a job. So she decided to set out on a journey. She traveled through many lands, over hill and dale, across rivers and through woods, until finally she met another bear. This bear said he was in need of a partner, to star in a children's storybook with him, so Tiffany happily took up the job. The end.

ETA: The idol named Taisuke had to find another small, fuzzy animal to cuddle instead, so he went with the next best option, which was a fellow band member named Kitayama.

Beautiful.

But was Taisuke okay without Tiffany?

[omoikkiri.livejournal.com]

Edited :3 (Sorry for forgetting your plight the first time Taisuke! I still love you!)

[miquilis.livejournal.com]

Ah, I didn't see the edit. And it's Kitayama telling me this story? About him and "Taisuke" cuddling?

[omoikkiri.livejournal.com]

Yes. Incidentally, Fujigaya is probably flailing wildly in the background, horrified at Kitayama revealing his deep dark secrets.

[miquilis.livejournal.com]

and in a published children's book no less. Fujigaya could write his own version :3

[omoikkiri.livejournal.com]

Fujigaya's version would not be acceptable in the children's book market, I think.

am i still on the fast team, that's my only major concern, haha.

I'm neutral about the theme rounds. I'd do it if everybody else was into it, sure, but I can't say it made me get really excited or anything.

[omoikkiri.livejournal.com]

lol we tried to take everyones' writing speed and preference for speed into account as well yes.

[ryogrande.livejournal.com]

interested! i love themes. :D

[shadow-fictions.livejournal.com]

[rockthecliche.livejournal.com]

Also are we really branching out to non-JE fics bc I have feels even if it'll take ages to get to my turn 8D

[dreamweavernyx]

Themes sound like a great idea :D

[dreamweavernyx]

WAIT I'm placed after ryogrande for this shuffle, but I've just posted for Team 2 (old lineup) yesterday - do I post again? (i.e. do the changes apply now or do I wait for her to post again before it's my turn?)

[omoikkiri.livejournal.com]

Err lol sorry I guess the note wasn't obvious enough, but no the changes are not in effect until after the current round (with the old order) is over!

[dreamweavernyx]

okieeee :)

[kira-shadow.livejournal.com]

themes sound fuuuuuuuun \:D/

[noella84.livejournal.com]

I'm in pole position this round? XD

The themes or mandatory word sound fun.
