Happy Birthday, [personal profile] naye!

I drew a pic with post-timeskip reunion Nami & Vivi (possibly Nami/Vivi). (I like drawing those.)

Tradition by prpl-pen is a delicious Robin/Nami piece featuring mistletoes, overly strong rum cakes, and the power of tradition in the right moment with the right people.
Rated PG-13/R by the writer: not worksafe.

So, a while back I asked for prompts/requests and got a bunch of them, but alas, my inspiration has been very unforthcoming this month. :( And when it hasn't been lacking, time has. So the only thing I've managed to finish in time is this pic with Nami and Vivi, requested by [personal profile] prpl_pen.

This takes place sometime in the timeskip (note length of Nami's hair). Er, I'm not the best at painting sunsets. *^_^*

It took me a fair bit of time, but finally I'm ready to post this! It's a Nami/Vivi story set towards the end of the Alabasta arc. I like this pairing a lot, but this is the first time I got a real idea for it.

This fic has been betaed by the magnificent [personal profile] tonko, for which I'm very grateful. Any remaining errors are my mistake alone. Suggestions for improvement and other feedback are very much welcome.

Title: Remuneration
Word Count: around 2, 100
Pairing: Nami/Vivi
Rating: PG-13
Setting/spoilers: Albana, post-battle and healing, after Luffy's woken up in the palace but before the great banquet.
Summary: Vivi tailors her approach to her audience.

Unbetaed shortfic for Usopp's birthday: nothing big and definitely not polished, just an off-the-fuff shortfic. Concrit extremely welcome.

Title: Again, Like This, Together I might change this title
Characters/Pairing: very lightly Nami/Usopp
Rating: G
Word Count: 1082
Flavour: fluff
Summary: Nami and Usopp hang out towards the end of the Fishman Island arc

Happy Birthday, Usopp! )

Now I'm going to try to import/crosspost this to LJ or however that stuff works.

Second holiday shortfic, this one prompted by [personal profile] ryu19 who asked for "Nami as Santa, Usopp as Mrs. Claus". And also Usopp/Nami... which I'm afraid didn't quite happen, this is all gen and rather cracky.

For the purpose of this fic, assume that somehow the American Santa legend exists in the One Piece world. But since there's still no Jesus on the world of One Piece, Christmas is an entirely secular holiday there. (The name is immaterial /handwaves.)

A very happy birthday to [livejournal.com profile] dethorats!

{{{hugs}}} May you have a very nice day!
Watch this space for birthday fan art to appear later! (Like... tomorrow. Or maybe tonight.) Now with birthday art behind the cut - pre-timeskip Nami/Vivi.

I'd have gone with post-timeskip, if I'd known what Vivi looks like now )

I hurt my left foot from sheer dumb clumsiness (seriously: I forgot the vacuumer was underfoot in the kitchen; then twisted the foot the wrong way in panic), had to leave work early and will go get an X-ray tomorrow. I was going to do organic gardening work this weekend (including a big guerrilla gardening action), but that seems a lot more doubtful now.

Anyway, enough whining. But I feel like being self-indulgent today, so here's a repost of a fic I did to the prompt "To (Two) Arms" for [livejournal.com profile] lady_karasu's on-going One Piece chaos thread (which everyone is welcome to join!). As always, comments and criticism are very welcome.

Title: Disarmed
Word Count: 984
Rating: PG (for violence shown and implied)
Characters: Nami, Robin
Summary: Nami and a wounded Robin on a battlefield.
Note: Contains wild, unconfirmed speculations Robin's Devil Fruit abilities and of Nami's new weather skills.

step by step )

I wrote a fic to [livejournal.com profile] naye, who thought I should re-post it on my journal, so here it is!

Title: Autumn Rain, With Noodles
Characters: Strawhats
Word Count: 1, 036
Spoilers/Setting: Set post-timeskip somewhere in the New World, very liable to be Jossed by canon. (Note particularly that the bit about Nami's weather abilities is complete speculation at this point.)
Rating: G

So! I got tagged - or rather, asked to be tagged - by [livejournal.com profile] scribe_protra a week or so back (*checks* uh, actually it was New Year's Eve - I'm even slower than I thought!) for a writing meme! This one is connected to user pics.

This is how the meme goes officially, though as you see below I didn't follow all of it:

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick six of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and write a drabble about (each of) the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.

Beside the icon glee, I think - though I could have this all wrong - that the point is to write something brief and fast without taking it too seriously. Unfortunately, I normally fail at brevity and quickness, so that failed, even though I cheated and asked [livejournal.com profile] scribe_protra to only pick four of my icons rather than six. And I wound up way over 100-word length for all of them - though I did hold on to the "not taking it too seriously" part. Anyway, it was still fun to do, and I'd love to pass it on in case anyone's interested.

If you do want to do this, please ask how many icons I should pick - since I only had four, I can hardly demand anyone else must write six!

Concrit is welcome as always - this is just for fun, but it's always good to get tips on wording, correction on typoes etc!

here we go )

I drew some pencil sketches of One Piece fan art featuring backstory speculation, going heavily into wishful thinking territory. Very unlikely to actually be proven true.

Don't click if you're not up on the current manga.

It's theoretically possible! )

Drew two sketches of Wakaba and Anthy from Utena, plus a coloured pic of Nami where she's crossovering into the Ranma 1/2 universe.

Vague visual spoilers for the end of Utena, no spoilers for One Piece. G, worksafe.

Concrit welcome, esp. on how to get characters looking more like themselves.

This is a gift for [livejournal.com profile] ayiekie, but he's already seen it and okayed it being posted here. Another return to Ranma 1/2, it's in honour of one of the most deliciously cracky mock summaries of fusions-never-to-be-written I've ever read (I reeeeally wish it was posted on the net so I could link to it here). EDIT:You can now read the thing (the mock summary, that is) here! Again uses one-shot character Mariko Konjo the Cheerleader (and also Akane, less prominently).

EDIT: There are now HUGE spoilers for Revolutionary Girl Utena and Sailor Moon in the comments, so avoid if you haven't seen Season 5 of SM and the entirety of Utena! I MEAN IT. Especially wrt Utena.

Good king Sauerkraut, look out, on your feets uneven )
While I'm feeling Rumic, here's a tentative sketch of Nami drawn in my imitation of Rumiko Takahashi's style, plus an even looser, more tentative sketch of Robin (face only) as the same.

rumic wave )

aside: I must say, I find the little fake "products" you can see on the left in Photobucket now, featuring your image as printed on a cup, cards, t-shirt or as a cellphone background rather creepy.

To Nami

poem post [originally posted to onepiece_300, reposted to Dreamwidth and backdated]

Title: To Nami
Rating: G
Media: fic (poem)
Characters: Sanji
Pairing: Sanji/Nami (or maybe Sanji->Nami; it's not clear)
Word Count: 105
Prompt: Poetry
Author’s notes: I used a honorific here for the fist time ever, for metrical reasons (usually I eschew them). Nevertheless, I’ve been taking some liberties with the meter as well. Suggestions for improvement quite welcome!



There’s other things that keep me going, true –
The wind, the sea, the wonders on our way,
The dream I follow; our idiot captain too,
Who keeps on fighting on the darkest day;

And actually, despite their silliness,
Each shitty dumbass moron in our crew;
Plus Robin-chan’s amazing loveliness --
I may need them as much as I need you.

Yet out of all those things that just feel right,
For pure, resplendent joy, there’s none as strong,
As simply waking up after the night,
Then stepping out on deck, where I belong,
And see you smiling in the early morning light.

When you find yourself on the one hand writing fairly heavy wangstfic and on the other writing the sixth chapter of a really heavy deathfic, you may feel a certain need to take a break from the doom 'n' gloom at times. At least I did. So here's something fluffy with Nami and Usopp.

Betaed by the truly fabulous [personal profile] tonko.
Edited to add: Of course, suggestions for improvements are much welcome! (But you can pretty much take that as given with my fics.) Also, crossposted to [livejournal.com profile] one_piece.

Title: Finding Our Bearings
Rating: PG
Pairing: Nami/Usopp
Spoilers/setting: Post-EL, pre-TB
Summary: Basically post-reunion fluff, mildly suggestive
Note: this fic presupposes some kind of physically intimate relationship between Nami and Usopp prior to Water 7, though probably not yet a sexual one.

Orientation )

Happy birthday, [livejournal.com profile] sasori_katana!

Wasn't that easy picking what characters to draw since you write pretty much everybody. ^_^ In the end I settled for two CP 9 agents plus two of my own personal favourites.
