I also wanted to ask - Does anyone know how Yutaka refers to Kagami? First name or last name? I'm including some interaction in a chapter, and I can't recall.

I heard she's blocking anonymous reviews again. But oh well, that's the price of being an artist. (A writer in this case, but you get the picture) Dealing with Critique.

Yutaka would probably call her Kagami-san. She seems to respect just about everyone. With the Hiiragi twins, it's kind of confusing since it's a family names first.

"To avoid criticism do nothing, say nothing, be nothing." --Elbert Hubbard, US author (1856 - 1915)

Let's quit talking about her openly, so she can be nothing, even if she doesn't realize it. 'kay?

AsterSelene · 2008-12-10, 22:27

Are any of the people who talked about Akai-Kurenai aware that she is female? Yeah. You keep saying "he".

Really? I didn't know. :X But after looking at the account, I see that now...it says you are collaborating with her, do you mind sharing anything?

Oh yeah guys, I have to really give a tip to any of you who plan on writing long stories. Even if you want to make a long story, you can't make your chapter incredibly long. I'm seeing chapters over 10,000 words. That's just plain insanity. Size intimidates people, so you don't ever want to do something like that. I think even if you write really well and you space things out, you don't want to go over 8,000 words per chapter.

For the record, I've actually read long stories before. However, I do note that current-generation kids' eyes glaze when there are long paragraphs, so that's what people need to keep short.

Kagami~n · 2008-12-12, 12:31

Yeah, it's the "textwall" that we want to avoid. Even I feel a little inclined to hit the back button when I encounter one of these in fanfiction. It shows a lack of knowing how to space, and indicates that we're in for a big run-on.

Also it makes those damn kids go "I dun wanna READ all this!"

I do read long stories. I try not to let the wordcount intimidate me... but if the story is really sub-par and has somewhere around 10,000 per chapter, then I probably don't wanna waste my time.

Nukerjsr · 2008-12-12, 12:50

I think that's what I meant. I have read and enjoyed really long stories before too, but lately there's been an issue or two with things. I've seen a few text walls where a bunch of dialogue is placed into ONE paragraph, or a story that has one chapter with 2k words, and the next chapter is seven times bigger.

I'm sure most people know how to size their chapters. If I see something like 10+ chapters from the get-go, though, I usually don't take the time to read it unless I was actively looking for something like it. This also applied to manga.

Hmm...trying to weasel me? Nice.

Like Akai, I refuse to give any plot details. All I will say is that it involves annoying advertisers, some more cereal, and a pencil.

To anyone who is interested at all, I just finished with my two-part Christmas Special. I posted it in my fic, Vigorious Intent. So for any of you who still have a bit of the holidays still in you, take a peak.

I've been bored lately, what can I say.

Nukerjsr · 2009-01-30, 02:59

In a bit an random/interesting news, I and a few other people have made a collective guide to what you want to do if you are considering writing stories in Lucky Star. You are free to submit any information you believe is important. (And it contains a secondary guide for people who want to make original characters)

http://www.fanfiction.net/topic/41488/11948327/1/

And with stories, someone is doing a really nice Tsukasa/Misao story. (I never would of thought of it.) It's odd how these irregular pairings are working so well.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4799448/...ays_Five_Steps

Kagami~n · 2009-01-30, 09:36

I second his recommendation, that Tsukasa/Misao thing is awesome. And one can only pray that writers will even take a glance at the advice on that thread.

I'll pimp myself at a later date.

andyjay729 · 2009-04-15, 01:53

I'll bite. Don't know if any of you have any tolerance for, umm, deathfics, but that's what this cat dragged in.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4935135/1/Fun_is_Fun_and_Done_is_Done

I did try rather hard on this one, namely in attempting to balance the grief and light comedy. Some yuri pairing at the end, but nothing too heavy, since it felt like it would be a bit out-of-turn given the circumstances.

And I second Kagamin's praise for "Three Days Five Steps". If everyone favorited that story, there would be world peace (probably).

Bane Rieko · 2009-04-22, 21:33

I was wondering if anyone knows of any good fics featuring Hiyori as a main character. I can't really find any on Fanfiction.net

Default Highschool Girl is the one good Hiyori fic even though it isn't complete. But it's absolutely fantastic, like, Top 5 from all stories I've read.

game2007 Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2007	Made by friend, not me. Spoiler for length: Cakey Kagami "Winter break is finally here!", yelled Konata. She was running up towards the others who had already gotten together to talk about vacation. She was looking very cheerful with her long blue hair and pink winter uniform. She was always angry at her extremely short size compared to everyone else but today her mind was other places. Tsukasa, Kagami, and Miyuki had fell silent just as they turned to face their friend. "Yeah but can you believe all the homework we have to do?", Tsukasa sadly said. She was wearing the same uniform with her short purple hair backed with a yellow headband. "Like you guys ever do your homework. You'll just ask to copy it off me like you guys do everytime", explained Kagami as she combed her long purple locks tied with bows with her hands. Konata and Tsukasa both blushed at what Kagami said. They were used to putting off their studies and thankfully had Kagami to help bail them out. "I've already done most of my homework." Miyuki happily said while her long pink hair flushed around her face wrapping on her glasses. Being the tallest and smartest of the group she was always looked up to. She also showed much better 'features' than the rest of the group. "It shouldn't take more than a few minutes to complete the rest of it", she smiled. "I can't wait for my Christmas animes", yelled Konata acting like a complete fangirl. Her stomach growled and her face went pale. "I'm so hungry...let's go to the cake buffet!", she suggested. "B-but...my winter diet", Kagami said. She always was concerned about her wait even though it was never more than 1 or 2 pounds that she gained occasionally. After a convinces arguement...that and the fact Kagami hadn't had cake in weeks, they all decided to go. They all walked to the buffet while Konata, being the hungriest, led the way to the buffet. When they arrived they were surprised that almost no people were there. Break has just started so they assumed everyone left town for the holidays. They each payed their toll and sat at a booth. The waitress greeted them and told them that they had an hour to eat but would have to pay for anything they didn't finish at the end. Kagami looked into her wallet. "Ugh. We had better finish what we grab. I'm out of money", she said holding her wallet upside down. They got up and each grabbed a plate and filled them with little cakes. They sat back down and munched away acting as if the cakes were baked in the heavens. "Mmmmmm this is so yummy!", yelled Konata holding her fork high in the air. They each got up another 2 times before reaching their limits. They sat full and satisfied but also a little sick. There were still 4 pieces of cake left but no one made a gesture to grab them and time was almost up. "Ahhh I'm so full, I can't eat anymore", sighed Konata. "What!? You're the one who wanted us to come here in the first place. We have to finish hurry!" Kagami shouted forcing down another piece. Tsukasa gagged and she chomped on her last one and Konata almost puked. Miyuki couldn't even look at her piece let alone eat it so Kagami kindly ate it for her. The waitress checked their table and thanked them for going. They got up and headed out the door. They walked down the street wearily. Konata almost puked as she spoke. "Let's go to my house for some videogames", she said happily. "Always gaming, even on break", Tsukasa giggled. Nonetheless, the girls thought that it would be the perfect way to end the day and so agreed to play for awhile. They took the long way to Konata's house since they couldn't afford the bus after the buffet and arrived before the sun started to set. The sky was still blue with the chilliness of winter. Konata tried the door...it was locked. "Odd. My dad must not be home", she said as she pounded the door. She began to kick it in dismay. "NOOO my games!" "Maybe he will be back any moment now", Miyuki said aloud to comfort. However she was wrong. Half an hour passed before they realized he wasn't coming back anytime soon. The group sat around sulking in the cold winter breeze as the sky finally started to darken. Tsukasa shivered and tried her best to huddle with the group in an attempt to warm herself. "I-isn't there another way inside? It's so cold", she asked. Konata got up and walked around to the back without a word. The other 3 looked at each other dazed and followed. They found her at the back of the house looking up. They too looked up and saw she was staring at a small window several feet off the ground. "There!", Konata pointed. "That is our way into the great cavern of gaming and warmth", she said dramatically. "You mean your room?", Miyuki quietly laughed. They stared at it again but all felt very doubtful. Konata jumped for the window but she was far too short. "Grrr...it's too high" "Haha! No you're just too short", laughed Kagami obviously trying purposely to offend Konata. Next Tsukasa tried. She grabbed the edges but was too weak to pull herself up and fell. "Sorry I guess I can't get up there", she said sadly. "Miyuki you're tall, why don't you try?" Miyuki jumped and grabbed the window. She was able to pull herself up and poke her head throught the tiny window. As she began to fall in she stopped at her chest. She was much more 'matured' than her friends. She tried to shove her self through but it wouldn't work no matter how hard she tried and so she fell back to the ground defeated. Everyone knew she wouldn't fit so they all turned to Kagami who stared at the window. "Maybe we should just wait for your dad. He can't be away for much longer", Kagami nervously said to Konata. "What? But Kagami-san we can all be warm inside if you just go through the window...", Konata made a puppy-dog face. "UH you're such a brat! Ok ok I'll go", She held her stomach before looking up one last time. She always had a winter diet this time of year, so she would be able to get through easily...right? Plus she wasn't as matured as Miyuki was. She jumped for the window grabbing it easily and lifted herself with difficulty and poked her upper torso in. "Looking good Kagami-san!" Konata yelled with a thumbs up. Kagami ignored her and continued on through. The inside of the room already warmed her face and she relaxed. She gave a couple jerks to try and throw herself through a little at a time and got about halfway. She jerked again when she suddenly stopped. Her belly was in no way fat but it protruded just a few inches from the rest of her. She wiggled a little and slid through some more but the window felt tighter around her midsection each time. After about a minute she couldn't get any further and the others watched her kick in her skirt from the outside. "UGH! Stupid window! It's too small!", she growled. "You're gonna get stuck", Konata shouted. "Oh what do you know!?", Kagami replied back angrily. After what Konata said, she had to get through now. "I can't let Konata have the joy of being right. Time to get serious", she said as she pulled with all her strength. After a minute of non-stop pulling and wiggling, she stopped and found herself not even an inch closer to her goal. She hated to admit it..but she was just too big. She sighed and turned to her side to yell. "Guys! I don't fit. I knew that cake was a bad idea. I'm coming back out....", she attemped to jump back but she didn't move. The window secured her from going either way. She struggled and mumbled to herself angrily. The others were in shock at the sight but Konata laughed. "Stuck? That's what you deserve for calling me short" "SHUTUP!", Kagami placed her feet on the outside of the house as she tried to still yank herself from the window. She couldn't get out. She stopped after awhile and breathed heavily. "Sis, can we help?", Tsukasa asked "PULL ME OUT!" "Not until you admit your stuck", Konata jested waving a single finger with a deviant look on her face", "I'm...stuck. Happy? I'm stuck!", Kagami shouted. Satisfied Konata said,"Ok guys grab Cakey's legs and pull her out". "Did...did she just call me cakey?", Kagami said to herself still trying to back out. Miyuki and Tsukasa each jumped and grabbed a leg as Konata sat laughing. They started to pull and it seemed to work a little but Kagami just wouldn't fit back out the way she came. They pulled Kagami until their muscles let out and fell backwards. Kagami still struggled to go either way but her belly just kept her in place. "This is just like one of my mangas!", Konata stopped laughing. "You see this girl got stuck in a window and she was helped by this guy..." "Can you come back to reality for a minute Konata?! Just get me out of this window!", Kagami yelled at the top of her lungs. "Whoa there cakey", Konata smiled. "In the manga the guy lubed her up. It didn't work for her but maybe for you it would. Tsukasa do you have any lotion on you?" "Me? Oh...ummmm...yeah! I took it from my mom because I liked the scent but you can use it". Tsukasa reached into her bag and pulled out a pinkish bottle. She handed it to Konata who smothered a little onto her hands. Her hands glistening she looked up and Kagami. "Ok now Tsukasa, Miyuki...help me up to get to the blockage". "Blockage?", Kagami muttered under her breath. She waited to feel Konata's hands on her shirt lubing her up and was surprised at feeling the coldness of the lotion on her skin. "AHH! What are you doing?", screamed Kagami. "It's not your shirt that's stuck so quiet down cakey" "Stop calling me that. It's your fault I went against my diet in the first place!" Konata ignored Kagami as she finish. "Kagami is always screaming about something", she thought. Miyuki and Tsukasa dropped back down in a heap exhausted. None of them had the muscle for these kinds of things. Konata wiped the rest of the lotion on her skirt and smiled, "Ok try now cakey!" "I'll kill her when I get out...UGHHH!" Kagami pulled with all her might. It worked a little but not much. She got tired after a couple of tries and was about to give up when she suddenly jerked forward. She smiled thinking she was finally unstuck but when she pulled again she felt the frame hit her hips. She turned and gasped. Her butt was still stuck outside. The rest of the group couldn't believe what they saw. Kagami hung there just as stuck as ever. They all sighed and looked at the ground stumped. "I guess the cake went other places as well", Konata whispered. "That's strange" "Actually that's quite normal for sweets to go there for women. That's why we should all watch what we eat", Miyuki pointed out politely. Still struggling Kagami tried to grip the wall and pull but her hips were just a little to wide. "Uhh guys? I'm still stuck here!" The girls were already working on it. After the little rest they got, Miyuki and Tsukasa both got up. Then Konata jump onto Tsukasa's shoulder and Tsukasa stepped onto Miyuki's back forming a sort of human ladder. Tsukasa swung Konata into Kagami's backside and she began pushing. Startled at first, Kagami began to pull again. This kept up for awhile but no luck. Konata could see that Kagami was not gonna make it through. Her hips almost fit all she needed was some final momemtum. She asked herself "what would a videogame character do?". Then a smile formed cynically across her face. "Guys, I'm going to fall over" Miyuki said as the last of her strength left her. Kagami was gave up pulling. She almost cried at the thought of the fire department having to pull her out of a window. What if the kids at school heard? She could never go back. She was about to try one last time to get squeeze through when she felt Konata's hands leave her rear. "...Konata? Are you still there?", Kagami asked. She thought Miyuki had fell causing them to tumble and hurt themselves. It would be all her fault if they did. Then she heard Konata's voice boom through the wall. "KONATA PAWWNCHHH!", Konata shouted as she plowwed her fist into Kagami's rear sending her flying through the window onto the Tatami floor. Simultaneously, Miyuki fell over and caused Tsukasa to fall over as well. Konata fell onto the floor next to them. "I knew watching anime would help one day!" she threw up a peace sign. "I guess I miscalculated my own strength", Miyuki said drained from the unforseen workout. "Yay sis got through. Let's go to the front now." Tsukasa said happily and crawled as she got up. Tsukas went around and knocked on the door loudly. "You ok sis?", she yelled. The door creaked open slowly and a slumped over Kagami stood in the entrance. Her face was a dark blue from embarassment. Konata threw her hands into the air. "Thanks Cakey!" she smiled. "I'll remember this" Kagami said giving a piercing glance. "I'll remember this Konata." Last edited by game2007; 2008-12-12 at 23:04.
