... probably not for long. I am alive though. And healthy and happy and all that stuff. You know how I am, going off and doing my own thing and not following these sites for ages, but I felt the need to come back today since I have something to post.

I come bearing fanfiction! I finally finished working on my FMA fic [link] (which spawned from this piece of crap [link] , but is much better in my opinion), so please read and review... only took me, oh, two and a half years to write and edit. Yes, I know, I can be lazy and unmotivated.

Anyway I shall slip back into the shadows soon enough, I'm sure, but for now... Hello, I hope you're all well.

MEME

I still have to pimp out, I'm sorry it's taken me so long and that I -still- haven't done it. I will though. Sorry for the lonnng delay, but I will. Hopefully you understand. I like to be able to go through your whole gallery and comment on almost everything so it takes a while.

-----

Now, for the fun. Meme slightly edited for my purposes. See first three people's journals if you want the more official versions. Not that it matters.

*The first 10 people who post in this journal will be featured. I will go though your gallery and choose three of your deviations I like most and post them in my journal for everyone to see! I'll also post a little about you and each piece. It's pretty much to show you off. Who doesn't want that? The catch? You gotta put this in your journal as well if you posted. I'll update this so it bumps to the front page. And remember, if you don't post this in your journal, I'm not going to put your art up.*


1.
One of my awesome friends i know from college. I love his B&W style but he's good at color pieces too. A bonus is that much of his art is very sexy. He also writes but i have not yet read any of his writing...
[link] (sexy purple-skinned elf trapped in a web. Note: Tasteful back/side view nudity)
[link] (dom/sub not-porn. yum. Note: sexual imagery)
[link] (showersex in a nice simple style. Note: sexual situation)


2.
Another wonderful friend at college! Particularly talented in a nice style of poetry (probably fits in free-verse), also draws and will probably have more stuff up soon.
[link] (portrait, with wings! Note: tasteful frontal nudity)
[link] (a lovely poem "inspired by my total and complete misinterpretation of Lennon")
[link] (a fun poem "bemoaning my lack of ability to write things like sonnets and vilanelles")


3.
One of my first 'net friends, a totally wacky and awesome person. Bixie has a lovely, unique style that I've had the pleasure of watching develop and improve over the years. She draws me lots of gift art too!
[link] (me with wings and Bixie's original characters. They love me, which is nice)
[link] (lovely realistic picture of a very pretty emo person, nicely done in pencil)
[link] (another pic of the boys, very sweet. Note: shonen-ai)


4.
Another old net friend... i believe we met on my very first forum at least 5 years ago. She's really cool, multitalented. Her gallery consists of some drawings, great writings, and a ton of awesome icons (which are "gankable" as long as you credit her, of course n.n).
[link] (fun and sexy icon based on the corset-produced cleavage in Pirates of the Carribean)
[link] (interesting slightly disturbing digital painting of a woman impaled by spikes. Simple and powerful. Note:; nudity, violent imagery)
[link] (raw lust-song, very different from your typical love song. titled "Fast food boy", a must-read!)


5.
Yet another net friend, we met on a forum and then I started reading her awesome romantic vampire webcomic [link] She's a lovely person, and has an ever-developing artistic style.
[link] (A bishi in a skirt. Hooray for crossdressing! This piece has cool textures)
[link] (great B&W photo of a cat, Clodia, in a hard-to capture pose - a nice yawn!)
[link] (Gwen from her comic Before Dawn. I love the way she uses colored pencils, simple but nice!)


6.
Relatively new friend, we met on a Naruto group. She's a fellow shonen-ai/yaoi fangirl, and works in multiple mediums (writing, anime-screencap manips, setting up funny scenarios with figurines, drawing...). Much love for all the pretty boys in her gallery.
[link] (Self portrait of her, a woman after my own heart - one who doesn't feel like waking up early XP )
[link] (Sexy, sad looking winged sexy boy)
[link] (I couldn't resist this one... Kakashi the cat killer. You just have to see it.)


7.
Another one of my long-time friends from the wonderful world of the internet. He's a wonderful person... also quite good at drawing and excellent at writing! He's drawn pics for me, which makes me happy.
[link] (original character, Damask, Warrior priest. This is the lineart/slightly colored version of him, in a great realistic style. The colored version here, [link] has a description of the character)
[link] (to be honest, i haven't read this yet... but i know it'll be good. Fantasy story with battles and great characters.)
[link] (probably the sweetest gift I've ever been given. Me with wings, complete with a song from Lord of the rings (text here [link]))


8.
She's a really cool and interesting person, one of the earliest people I befriended on DA. She's an art student who definitely has skillz. Her drawings are of multiple themes, and she has some really cool fantasy stuff. She also has done 3d modeling, flash animations, and has some great OCs for story purposes.
[link] (very well-drawn piece of OCs for one of her stories - the wind spirit and her eventual lover, a priestess. Note: revealing clothes and girl/girl love)
[link] (cute animation with a wind-up penguin! you have to click "download" to make it work.)
[link] (She drew me a pirate wench for the "free sketch" meme that turned into "free nicely done piece" for both me and her n.n I love this pic)

9.
I've been friends over the net with the sweet, lovely Farah for a while, she's the author of several webcomics [link] Her style is very cute and she does a good job with CG.
[link] (this was a gift for me, she drew me as a catgirl! I love this piece, it's so pretty!)
[link] (not sure who the caracter is, but this sexy red-clad lady is very well done)
[link] (An old piece, the cover for the third chapter of Farah's sweet shojo webmanga (link is on her page). )


10.
Forthcoming, I have to go through the gallery
