a wish upon you

Thought this would be fun -- lord knows I have a thousand-and-three WIPs...  XD

Post a single sentence from each WIP you have (or as many as you want to pick).  No context, no explanations.

1.  Sometimes he wakes up with glitter on his chest.

2.  But the older guitarist is watching those deft fingers curl their way around the frets, fingers sighing across that lovely A-string -- the one that screams, shivers and breaks whenever the rest of them fall back and let Uruha shine, shine, shine.

3.  Uruha has his hand on the back of his kitchen table chair, a worn thing that creaks each time they straddle the mahogany wood in those times; the instances where midnight breakfast gets stale and butter melts through Uruha's fingers as it's smeared across bowed lips.

4.  Reita made a face -- it could have been from the taste of his stale, ice-cold coffee or the stench of Ruki's weak argument.

5.  Kouyou leans against him, smelling like nicotine and rock-star-starvation, and grins, "It's charming."

6.  "You're like nitrogen and white-birds, Aoi."

7.  Aoi can almost smell the nicotine on his tongue as the younger mutters, "You won't last."

8.  Glitter was on his tongue, choking him and his mind -- preventing him from screaming as lyrics filled his mouth and Reita's name was lost beneath his lids as he squeezed his eyes shut.

9.  Ruki hates being cornered -- almost as much as he hates white flowers.

10.  "Holy fuck,"  Kai elaborated.

:;:;:;:

This kinda makes me want to abandon my college-duties and finish all of these  -3-

Title:  In Teeth
Chapter:  2/??
Description:  Reita might be slightly desperate.  And obsessed.  But with Uruha prancing around in nude tulle, Kai being absolutely useless, Aoi rocking out when he isn't being an idolized enigma on campus and some guy with multicolored dreadlocks showing up wherever he goes, well... he has his hands full.  If there's one thing he'll learn this semester, no one is who they seem.
Pairings:  Reita/Ruki, Reita/Uruha, Aoi/Uruha, Aoi/Tora, etc
Genre:  Romance, Drama, Crack, Supernatural(ish)
Warnings:  Randomness, cross-dressing, mentions of drug use

In this chapter: 
"You didn't tell me we were having company!  I would've put on something more appropriate than this monstrosity!"  
Reita ran a hand down his face while Kai happily got comfortable on his bed, "I'm pretty sure what you deem 'appropriate' would have involved a tube-top or something -- so really, it's a blessing."

Notes:  I should probably include 'language' in the warnings section...  Ah, well.



( "-- Prepare to be researched." )

 

Title:  Paris Syndrome
Description:  Won't you come inside my lens? 
Pairing:  Reita/Hiroto
Genre:  Romance, fluff
Rating:  PG-13
Comments:  I saw a request for this oddball pairing over at jrockyaoi and decided to try my hand at it.  I've been so bogged down with university, NaNoWriMo, etc that I just needed a break from the norm.  Hope you enjoy bananaxcupcake !



( "You're a fucking masterpiece." )

Title:  Lion
Description:  When Uruha said he'd like to experience the simpler, innocent feeling of childhood again in his now-hectic life, this wasn't what he had in mind.
Chapter:  1/?
Pairings:  Reita/Uruha, Aoi/Ruki
Genre:  Fluff, slight crack, romance, drama
Rating:  PG-13

Notes:  This idea was stuck in my head for some time.  And then this first chapter was sitting in my documents for some time too while I was still posting Violet Pulse.  Anyways, I needed a little fluff in my life (which is being devoured by college madness...) so here comes this piece!  I'm also doing a slight side project for the spooky month of October so beware of weird, not-as-consistent updates.  Hope you all enjoy <33


( -- "Just grant the little monster his wish." )

So!  The last chapter of Violet Pulse is half-way written and will probably be posted next week sometime.  It's hard to get time in to write it properly due to college exams and whatnot.  But I'm determined to get it done with the care it deserves. 

I don't know whether it's because the story's almost over or not, but  two major plot bunnies came barging into my room the other day.  They would both become multi-chapter stories and one of them I've already written the first chapter for.  The other would probably be a longer story and it's in its chapter-outline stage now.  I'm not really sure which one to focus on after the last chapter of Violet Pulse comes out.  

So, if anyone on my flist is interested, please read the descriptions below and let me know what you want to see :)

( the choices )

Title:  Violet Pulse
Chapter:  3/5
Description:  Eight-years-old, Yuu blushed -- an innocent red dusting his cheeks as he ducked his head away from Kouyou's sight.  He swallowed, his lungs stammering because he had these weird, wiggly things inside of him that made his stomach clench.  And made his heart beat fast.  And made Kouyou feel right.  Somehow.
Pairing:  Aoi/Uruha
Notes:  Five chapters.  Five ages.  How sometimes two people should be together despite everything.  First request-fic!  Please enjoy jokerock <3

In this chapter:  Nineteen-years-old, he tried to step away -- tried to catch his falling heart because for some inane reason, in this moment of dirty alleys and smearing kohl, he thought of Kouyou.



( -- it's okay, come fall apart with me )

 

Title:  Violet Pulse
Chapter:  2/5
Description:  Eight-years-old, Yuu blushed -- an innocent red dusting his cheeks as he ducked his head away from Kouyou's sight.  He swallowed, his lungs stammering because he had these weird, wiggly things inside of him that made his stomach clench.  And made his heart beat fast.  And made Kouyou feel right.  Somehow.
Pairing:  Aoi/Uruha
Notes:  Five chapters.  Five ages.  How sometimes two people should be together despite everything.  First request-fic!  Please enjoy jokerock <3

In this chapter:  Thirteen-years-old, it was still awkward; lanky limbs bumping against each other and pink dusting their faces.  Preteen breaths became shaky, erratic, as Yuu leaned in close to wipe the red from Kouyou's lips.  "Don't tell my mom."



( -- was it okay like this? )

Title:  These Simple Breaths [because I'm drowning in your lungs]
Chapter: 3/3
Description:  This gold is fading.  Three moments that meant everything when nothing went right.
Notes:  It's over and I feel really good about it.  Haha, I feel so accomplished that I finished something longer than a oneshot!  I hope you all enjoy the final part. 
Previous Chapters:   [ 1 ]   [ 2 ]   [ 2.5 ]


( He had eyes just like yours. )

 

Title:  These Simple Breaths [because I'm drowning in your lungs]
Chapter: 2/3
Description:  This gold is fading.  Three moments that meant everything when nothing went right.
Notes:  And here comes the second chapter (oh goodness, I'm actually completing a multi-chapter?  Unheard of..)  Not so sure about this one though.  I'm also thinking of adding in another installment focusing on Yuu because this is pretty Kouyou-centered.. Ah, we'll see.  EDIT:  Okay, there will be a Yuu-chapter.  Kouyou had stolen my plot, but I'm stealing it back, haha.
Previous Chapters:  [1] 

Hope you enjoy nonetheless :)

( Tokyo isn't bright enough. )

Title:  Sunrise in Aries
Description:  Car crash flames are in his mouth.  “It’s not your fault, Kou – ” Akira swears, watching the vodka disappear, watching Kouyou watch Aoi.  Don’t forget to remember. 

( -- a comfortable kind of irritation )
