Follow Jeanna's remarkable journey as she travels the United States by foot.

I'm up all night and super bored, so I figured I'd write some and do something productive.

Rating: Any (I lack inhibitions.)
Prompt: Something serious, please. I don't do crack.


I'll take about 5 prompts, sound good? Go for it if you're so inclined. Thank you!

To the fic

Title: Binary
Author: Lost Forevermore or Woebegone121
Rating: R for swearing, themes, and violence. (as of now. Rating is subject to change.)
Pairings: Sora/Riku, Axel/Roxas, Demyx/Kairi and various other random scatterings
Genre: Mystery/Romance
Disclaimer: If I owned it, Kingdom Hearts would be a musical.
Warnings: Slash, language, possible adult content, eighties metal music, Motley Crüe, Guns 'n Roses, Savage Garden, fat cats, Roxas' mouth, Axel's lighter, Sora with a motorcycle license, crappy apartments, and excessive amounts of randomly named bands that may or may not have anything to do with each other.
Summary: Detective AU. It all started with a motorcycle accident, a missing blond, and a stolen computer disc. Now Riku's tracking his so-not-boyfriend and a hotheaded blond down with the help of his rock-obsessed, pyromaniac, partner-in-fighting-crime and his secretary who still hasn't figured out that she works for him, not the other way around. Not to mention the gang that's trying to kill them. And poor Riku's mop still isn't magical.

Pairings: Main: Zemyx
Side: MarluZex, AkuRoku, RiSo, XemSaï, RikuRoku, ReplikuZex, Naminé/Larxene, and more that I can't remember at the moment... So basically an orgy. (Fitting, for orgynization XIII)

Hm, I do believe this is my first post here... and I come bearing fiction.

Title: Oceanic
Pairings: Zemyx, mention of Riku/Sora and AkuRoku
Rating: T+ for language and irreparable damage to antique furniture, expensive china, a cell phone...

Anyone use them? the prices are nice (for lolita stuff). Since we apparently need a new fridge, stove and a new ac in my hubby's car, my clothing budget has been severely cut. So I'm looking for affordable(not cheap ^_-) gothic lolita clothing. The other problem with brands is sizing, I've lost about 15 pounds, but even so a lot of those dresses will be too tight in the bust or too short on my legs. I guess I could take it to a seamstress to refit.

**FINAL EDIT Thu Dec 10 02:15:47 UTC 2009**

So there is the final update... Over the past day we have processed around 11 million jobs out of the 12 million that were in queue at that time. Please bear in mind that over this past day, more jobs for notifications are also created. So while the queue has been dropping, we are still not fully caught up at this point, due to backlog and new jobs. We have roughly 3 million jobs still pending that involve the notification system in some manner. We had hoped we could have fully cleared the queue in a day, but unfortunately we can't clear it too quickly, since we need the rest of the site to operate normally. From our current perspective on the amount of jobs that are left in queue, and how many it has processed thus far, we believe it will take around another 8 - 12 hours to process everything.

And finally some answers to some questions:

Title: Dung
Pairing: Axel x various
Rating: M
Warnings (chapter): homo and heterosexual acts
Summary: AU. Axel copes with loss the only way he knows how.

Title: Whisper
Author: chesauroshin
Characters/Pairing: Sora/Riku
Rating: M for mature situations (including sexual ones) and some talk about blood/injuries.
Summary: Mostly, Riku’s just surprised that he’s still alive. Still, Sora figures that everything’s going to turn out okay, after all.
A/N: Many thanks to my beta, wayya. Part of the Awakenings Verse. Can be read as a standalone, but takes place after Said the Spider to the Fly, Memory’s Skyscraper: August, and Sympathy but before Riku, Home.

This place is both so much like their home and so very different from it; it’s almost like a photo negative

For the interested, there's also a soundtrack to this [like most of the other fics in this verse] that will be coming out later this week :)
