Yeah, but there's a difference between saying "I know I'm a good writer" and saying "I'm really good!" Pride can be totally justified and I'm not doubting that it is, just saying. *dies*

Though -- I don't actively view crits as flames, but I'm probably one of those people that don't try at all to improve their abilities. But that's mostly because I'm happy where I am. Really crappy things getting praised like hell annoys me too, though. >>"

9. Half of it is because of obscure fandoms or because they don't 'ship what the vast majority does.

Yeah, that's probably it. I guess if you don't write for the flavor of the week, then nobody cares.

Like I said to grayout, I should have reworded the secret a bit to focus less on the people who write and draw, and more on the ones who just don't try to improve.

Still, I'm pissed to see people getting praised for half-assed stuff. Kinda makes me want to stop trying so hard... *almost*

P.S. I've seen your art. I really like it.

2. PREACH ON, BROTHER! (or sister, or whatever)! A masculine uke and a feminine-yet-aggresively-male seme? Oh hell yeah, bring it. Real men take it how they want it and screw the rest of you. >3

3. That happens to me a lot. Haven't finished SMT:N, haven't finished SRWOG, haven't finished Katamari... the list just goes on.

7. It's understandable. It's perfectly possible to feel lonely in a crowd.

9. The laws of popularity, I guess? I dunno, I don't trawl a lot of y! outside of my fandoms and I very rarely ever know what kind of drama's going on because I just don't CARE. Sure, it stinks that lousy artists/writers are popular, but that makes those who choose to read/look at/review the really good stuff all the more precious and special. :3

10. I don't know any BNFs in my fandom per se, but there are some scary damn groups out there that'll bash you if you look at them funny or do something with a ship they don't like. X_x Whatever happened to 'live and let live'?

[liltigre.livejournal.com]

"I will have you in my ass at gunpoint, fucking seme."

..... that is the most beautiful thing I've seen all day. ♥

[grayout.livejournal.com]

10 - THE BNFS ATE IT

What groups are out there? I'm curious. *dies* Oh yeah, and it wasn't mine or anything >>"

[grayout.livejournal.com]

Hiruma gets what he wants! :D

[liltigre.livejournal.com]

Amen! :D ♥Personally, I like the switches- where they don't give a damn about who tops or bottoms- as long as they're having fun, who cares?

.... though the wrangling between two guys over who goes where is bot hot and incredibly amusing to me, for some reason.

[shahrizai.livejournal.com]

That's why I like Gerard et Jacques. Seriously, when they have to flee, they dress the seme up as a woman because he's prettier than the physically hard-working uke.

[liltigre.livejournal.com]

10. I can believe it!

There's several, but I've only had a run-in with one. Word of advice- the pre-DoC LJ Reeve fandom? Some of them don't play nice with others. >_> I very nearly dropped one of my big comic projects because of the hate-mail I got over it.

[grayout.livejournal.com]

The only Reeve fan I know of are like, you'n Merc. *dies* There was a pre-DoC Reeve fandom? What do they even bother hate-mailing about?

[liltigre.livejournal.com]

There is, indeed! A fringe of the 'Shinra rules j00' fans, I suppose. It's a very long and massively retarded story, but the gist of it was they did not much like my character portrayals- my Reeve was OOC, according to them, but my portrayal of Vincent, on the other hand, they ripped apart. Apparently all Turks are whores and any of them being disturbed or upset by the idea of sexual assault is OOC because they like it. Or something. I still don't get it.

[grayout.livejournal.com]

You mean you don't like being molested and/or raped? FREAK.

[liltigre.livejournal.com]

;_; I know! I'm a horrible person! I just do it to spite everyone!

1. The most amusing thing I faced in the Death Note fandom were people who had 'their own interpretations' as to why the Wammy boys were the way they were. One of the amazing explanations were that L would get sold out to 'renters' and would be rewarded with sweets for 'a job well done'. And it was a habit that never left.

Needless to say, I boycotted any associations with fans of L/DN after that and enjoy it with just one or two people at most now. But I guess, you have to expect it.

2. Posessive/Playful/Naughty uke is my preference if I have to play with 'em. I write Mori Ranmaru, and I find it -annoying- when people are all like 'he's such an uke, he's so pretty' Uh. No. While I don't play for the sexual situations, if he's ever in one, he's not going to just lie (lay?) there and take it. And wow, that secret sounded so much like me. I dislike Takaba too. I don't think he has much of a personality, but neither does Asami (Yan and Fei all the way!)

4. Wut. People BASH Ieyasu?? WHY? The guy kicked ASS. WTF. Long live Ieyasu! ♥ What, he's coming between your sexy Mitsunari assrape fests? Sheesh. /bitch

5. I agree, kinda.

6. Done this so many times. I wish I could say that without sounding self-centered. ._. But like.. I recently picked up a character I -detest- to RP, simply because someone was BUTCHERING him beyond belief and I was like I'LL DO HIM RIGHT GRAR. >>"

7. Agreed. ._.

8. This is so sweet. ♥ I could say the same for some friends too. But I know one's always going to help with plots and make them wonderful. ♥ Until we both get bored and like.. do them later. *dies*

9. No comment, other than the fact that I'm used to it now. (I'm not that great in writing or as great as some of my artist friends, so I don't like expecting too much on my art. C'mon, sheesh, it's just artistic release and self-satisfaction.)

11. ♥

12. Hehehe. Whatever you say. You still have to agree on the fact that Axel in CoM was totally different from KHII!Axel. Though I'm sure explanations could be made (and no, Roxas is not an explanation/reason.)

[stamina.livejournal.com]

5. - WHAT, DID I MISS SOMETHING? AHHA, I never finished the game, but let me tell ya: I like Mitsunari for his personality more than his looks--it's a dominant coverage to mask his feminine looks. I LIKE THAT--so I roleplay him here and there for his personality alone. Ieyasu is WIN x359016136 though. I LOVE HIM. WHY DO PEOPLE HATE HIM? Just because he's a REAL man doesn't mean he doesn't deserve appreciation. Just gtfo those haters. :(((

As a Mitsunari RPer, I completely agree to with those comments above (that's how I play him; ohoho)!

2. I don't play ukes, probably because I don't think I could write bottom if I wanted to. I do, however, write semes with many different personalities. They all just, well... enjoy giving, more than receiving.

Which leads me to agree with you. Ranmaru can be pretty and still like giving it. ;; It's all preference, man, and not much determines that.

Takaba doesn't have much of a personality, and no, neither does Asami. They're rather stereotypical. However, I think Asami's a little more interesting because of his past and the fact that his motives are always so shrouded in mystery. I don't think he'll ever be developed, but, at least he's more likable than Takaba.

I can't believe you didn't guess who wrote this. I'm a ****ing NINJA.

[fairyfey.livejournal.com]

3. I don't finish most video games, simply because I have a -lot- of them and a very short attention span. >>

[shahni.livejournal.com]

2. Actually I'm pretty brain-fried at the moment, but I'm sure I could guess. ♥ Though my first guess is hubby. Just because Hubby and I love Fei and anyone who likes Fei agrees Takaba is stereotyped.

I'mrightright?*shot* Yes, you did succeed in ninja-ing by the by.

[autophobia.livejournal.com]

OKAY FINE YOU WIN. I thought it was pretty damned obvious. ;;; I had a friend come to the page, and he picked it out in one glance. ;;;; So you must be TOTALLY fried.

[shahni.livejournal.com]

I half-suspected in the beginning, then I went.. wait, that's too easy. So my brain just went no. *DIES* GahI'msotired.

*Dies* Case asked me if that secret was mine and I was like.. HM. IT SOUNDS LIKE ME butIdidn'tpostit. *Diessss* ILU HUBBY.

[(Anonymous)]

4.) It's because he's not "bishie" like Mitsunari.

[zhoutaisdayoff.livejournal.com]

You're probably one of the more mature Mitsunari fans I seen.

[autophobia.livejournal.com]

I know. It's not really a *secret*, more of me just ranting. But I needed to post it because it is the only thing I will EVER POST, I'm sure. ;;; I'mtooopen.

I figured he'd think it was you. ILU2~. :D

[shahni.livejournal.com]

*dies* I know. Or he'd probably *gasp* be the villain in the whole Mitsunari/Kanegetsu assrape time, oh nooes.

Damn, man. Please don't tell me you been reading Weaver's fics.
