Hopefully this isn't against the community rules, but I checked and I think it still goes :) I have a question for you.

The thing is, as some of you might've noticed, that the Die/Toshiya(/Toshiya/Die) fandom seems to be completely in a standstill. There only seems to be two or three active writers and readers, and the existing communities are more silent than an average graveyard. So we (we being me, seinen_no and daidetre) were discussing the matter and decided we would want to try revive the fandom a bit, to give it something like a nudge and to try activate people to share the love more.

We discussed different possibilities, and in the end we only came up with one thing we could do; creating a new community for the pairing. We would try to create a welcoming atmosphere and make people feel free to share every kind of thoughts and fanworks circling around Die and Toshiya. This is not an attempt to attack the existing communities or directed in any way against them. It is simply an attempt to show love, and to activate people to share this with us.

So now, I would ask you all to take a second of your time to vote in the poll :) If no one else than the three of us wants a new community, we will step back. But if there is interest coming from anyone of you, we will go ahead with our plan and proceed it. So every single vote counts, and would be much appreciated!


I hope this works since I'm a total n00b in making polls XD Anyways, please vote.

Poll #1485301 A new Die/Toshiya community?
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 1

Should a new D/T community be created?

Feel free to give your own thoughts and suggestions in the comments too! Just please no flaming and no hating. If you're not interested in the pair at all, or hate it from the bottom of your heart, just scroll by. We're more trying to see what is the general opinion amongst the people who do like D/T.

Thank you for your time! :)

TITLE: Jinchi High School
AUTHOR: albinococonut23
RATING: Hmmm, maybe PG13/14 for this chapter? For some swearing....
WARNINGS: AU... Probably OOC-ness. (I bend chacters to my willl! muahahahaha!~) Swearing, mis-use or interspersed use of honorifics *wince. i fail*.... Hmmm.... Possibly stupid spelling issues? I checked it over, but I was using a reaaallly nasty keyboard when I wrote this...
PAIRINGS: whoaaaa... there's a lot... hahaha I haven't even decided them all yet. (open to suggestions???? maybe??? xP )
BANDS: (again, a lot..... but here goes:) L'Arc~en~Ciel, Gacktjob, Malice Mizer, MIyavi, The GazettE, S.O.A.P, Vamps, and others/more to come.
LENGTH: 2650 words
DISCLAIMER: T_T I couldn't fit them all in my room...
SUMMARY: Jinchi High is an all boy's school (ha ha, I wonder why....) attended by many faces the average Jrock fan might THINK he/she recognizes.... HOWEVER! This is not so! In fact, these people are all (not particularly) average teenagers, living complex lives and hiding dark pasts and secrets whilst attending class together. These secrets may be revealed, bonds of friendship (and perhaps more....?) will be forged and broken... and, the answer to the question I'm sure everyone is most concerned about... Who will pass their final exams? O_O

Comments please!!

They're bound to make me update faster... *hint hint*

Title: You and Me
Chapter: Oneshot
Author: tongy_bear
Genre: Romance, Angst, Fluff
Warnings: N/A
Rating: G
Pairings/Characters: Hiroto x Shou (onesided), Tora x Shou
Summary: It was all so overwhelming- the love, the hate, the neutral feelings… sometimes I’d find myself wishing I never met you. You were the sole reason for my joy, you were the light in my darkness, you were… everything to me- my love, my hate, my friend, my enemy.
Comments: I haven't written anything in a long time, but still. Here it is. The finished score. Oh, and it's based on the song 'You and Me' by Lifehouse. Ain't no credit taken from that, hun.

Yet I still couldn’t forget about you. Every time I crossed your way, my heart would be begging to be let loose, and for a while, just a little while, my darkness would be filled with a soft, white light that was you, and you alone. How I cherished that moment, for it was a moment of hope, peace, and joy.

So my boyfriend has a proper job and they're doing a Christmas party. Said party is going to consist of cocktails, dinner, and dancing. As his significant other, I will be attending this party. It's on December 12.

But I have nothing to wear!

Not a huge problem, I can go shopping and buy something - assuming I can find something suitable and appropriate, that is. I'm a size 16-18 these days, so finding decent semi-formal clothing can be a challenge. Why do people think I should look like a house? I have a waist!

So, odds are good that I'll be sewing myself a dress. I've done such things in the past, but it's been a while. I can even adapt a pattern so that it fits me properly. However, I haven't got a dress form, so I'll be doing a lot of double-and-triple-checking for fit on myself.

As a result, what I would like to be able to do is find a pattern that is not going to require too many alterations in order to fit properly. I know that some patterns don't size out properly according to what the finished measurements say on the packaging, so I thought I'd ask here for some tips on how to choose a good pattern. I mean, first and foremost is design, of course (it has to be the right style for my body type), but it would be good to know ahead of time that, for example, the brand I chose tends to size small, so I should be making two sizes larger than I actually am according to their measurements. That sort of thing.

Thanks!

...to know what other people are talking about.

...to sing along with everybody else in a concert when the song is apparently popular though I have no idea about it.

...this world is called Leveronch and Big Bird is my best friend.

...when at night I go to sleep and my back feels warm, it's the ghost in my room comforting me.

...that I always have time to do many things at once, one of them being giving birth to fictional characters while babying a musical performance.

...these characters would take a life of their own, in reality they haven't done anything like taking over my hand so far.

...it's okay to wait when someone promises they would do the next move.

...it's fine when something more interesting comes up for them, surely the one who doesn't know what people are singing or talking about is less important.

...there is no problem when in the end I'm just left waiting.

...that I lash out when I'm angry.

Hi all,

I haven't sewed in awhile because both my machnes had problems. I've got them back now from the repair shop but I find once again that I'm having problems loading the bobbin of my Shark machine into the bobbin case so I can sew. It's a metal case bobbin that goes in in an up and down postion and all my life, I've used the drop in kind that lay flat. Every now and then, I've managed to get it installed correctly, but even looking at the directions that came with the machine doesn't really help. I've searched online too but can't find something to let me know what I do wrong that makes the bobbin fall out. There is a little lever on the metal bobbin case that you lift up and release as you install it, I think. Can anyone help me figure out what it is I'm doing wrong? I would be grateful eternally!

Thanks!

Currently accepting rp solicitations? Yes
Name/Alias: Grey
Age: 43
Theme(s) for which you would be willing to play for: X-Men (movieverse/au), original realistic law/crime, original modern supernatural, Marvel comics
Preferred setting(s): messageboard (non-invision), lj/ij
Experience: 25 years of tabletop, usenet, MU*, messageboard, pbem, livejournal.
Roleplay sample: Available on request.
Any other info: I currently have three characters looking for homes --

Michael Pointer (Weapon Omega) -- An AU version of the X-character, dialed back power-wise so he's not "Rogue: Area Effect - Whole Damn Planet." He's a mutant-hunting US Marshal hiding his own 'genetic status' and would work best in a x-movieverse or pure X-Men game focused on human-mutant relations.

Hannibal King -- The vampire detective. True to the original Tomb of Dracula/Dr. Strange canon, not the Blade movie version. He comes in three flavors: pre-Montesi, Montesi, and post-Montesi, depending on the status of vampires in your universe.

Nicholas Todd -- Original character. Invalided out of Delta Force after a brain injury that left him with occasional seizures, he's a classic go-to guy and good as either an independent expert contractor or a right-hand man/kingmaker to the right king. For games with a supernatural bent, his injury may have 'gifted' him with some kind of psychic power, as well.

(My preference is very much for pb avvies over artwork, but I'll look at games using the latter).

Series you RP: ahsjkghd. A whole bunch, but right now I've got only one I'm looking for, so I'll just say Bleach, Angel Sanctuary and Treasure Planet, among others. What I'm looking for is The Last Herald-Mage in particular.

Characters you RP: Renji Abarai, Arachne, and Jim Hawkins; in Last Herald-Mage, I've got a muse lying around for all three of the key male players - Tylendel, Vanyel, and Stefen - though my strongest for the moment is Van, by quite a bit.

Characters you’re looking to interact with: One of those three listed. ♥

Any specific storyline ideas, or general feelings involved with RPing: I did have a vision of 40-year-old Van finding 'Lendel, and after the required shock-and-stun factor, trying to explain what has happened up until Stefen, but that's about it. Anything at all with even two of these three would be epic.

Do you smut?: Yep!

Is there anything else you would like to add?: Nothing much, save that I don't know where I'd put them yet, but I'm just... really, really dying to play this. Anyone else know who I'm talking about/feel like it? ^^
