Initially we thought we’d make this when [livejournal.com profile] rabenhorst reaches 100 friends, to celebrate the achievement, but now we came up with another idea for that so this fluently turned to our Christmas event ;)

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket



So, as Christmas is coming, we’re offering you a unique chance to give requests of what kind of fics you would like to see. Although this is a Christmas-present for you guys, you might not get the fics exactly on Christmas; some will come earlier and some will be late. We simply can’t guarantee we have the time to finish everything by one set date, and therefore we kinda bend the term ‘Christmas’ to last a bit longer XD So try to see it as a Christmas / New Year's gift^^

The idea is simple. You tell us what you would want to see in a fic, as well as what you don’t want to see, and we do our best to come up with something to fulfill the request. Depending on how many people request we might combine the requests of two or three people, simply to keep the amount of work down to a manageable level. We will make sure though that everyone who requests gets something at least^^ Hopefully something enjoyable!

If you want, you can fill in the following form, just to give us some kind of idea what your wishes include. You can as well freely write in a comment what you want, so don’t bother with the form that much if you don’t wish to do so ;) It’s there merely to help you fill in some necessary info. Just let your mind flow. The more precise you are, the better we can imagine what you want^^
So, the form looks like following:
- pairing:
- genre:
- rating:
- what I would like:
- what I don't want:

But! And there’s always a but, isn’t there? x) There are certain things we won’t/can’t write into the stories we do. Which would be the following:

- Shinya x anyone as a focused pairing. We’re sorry, but we simply aren’t capable of writing him in that sense. He’s a welcomed guest in cameo-appearances though.
- Kaoru x anyone else than Die. haha, this one you can blame on me, and I apologize. But the only allowed Kaoru-centric pairing will be KaoruxDie.
- graphic BDSM or S&M. The result would be horrendous so don’t even bother asking for that x)
- self-mutilation or self-harm of any sort. This can be done if a certain plot specifically needs it though.
- m-preg. The only exception would be a humour fic. But I wouldn’t necessarily count on it as we might have a slightly twisted sense of humour XD
- historical exactness. We're familiar with the history of Dir en grey, but we tend to ignore it partly when we're writing.

Also keep in mind that we’ll do only Dir en grey –pairings. Cameo appearances from other jrockers or so are totally fine if we’re familiar with the characters we’re supposed to use. Some crossover pairings might be manageable as well, so if you have one in mind just ask. But don’t trust on that, preferably ask only for Diru pairings.

If something isn’t clear, just go ahead and ask. Other than that, request away ;)

You guys are awesome <33 If there's anything you'd like in return, like graphics or something, just ask ;D

Pairing: DiexKaoru.
Genre: AU
Rating: NC-17 ;D
What I would want: My biggest wish? Kaoru on bottom. That in itself is enough of a Christmas present for me XD But other than that, I've always wanted to see a fic with Kaoru and Die as teachers at a high school, maybe sneaking off to find an empty classroom to make out in... XD
What I wouldn't want: Other J-rockers from other bands and generally everything you mentioned you wouldn't write.

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Well thank you 8D For both the compliment and the offer! *coughs* You familiar with how to make layouts? XD I know it's a big thing to ask, so feel free to say 'no'^^

Gawd, and we will get you Die and Kaoru as teachers! I will make sure of it XD *sigh* And I suppose it's time to let Die top again.

[identity profile] drpaccy.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Hell, I have no clue about making layouts. I've been wanting to learn for ages, but my attention span is too short for such a thing XD Sorry, dear.

Yay~ 8D

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Damnit XD Well, it was worth a try, right? I really want to do something to the layout of [livejournal.com profile] rabenhorst. It's just not what I want it to be x)

[identity profile] drpaccy.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course it was worth a try XD Who knows though, maybe I'll manage to gain mad layout skills by the end of the week, huh? 8D

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
haha, yes, who knows XD If you do, please let me know!

[identity profile] sanghamyers.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
It's because of this sponsored account thingy. It destroys the S1 layouts. You can only use good S2s with them. Or go back to basic.

And sorry for stalking again. I really really have no life. *sneaks away*

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
Which one was S1 and which S2? XD I never remember. And well, that isn't really a layout anyways, I just slammed the banner up there because I wanted a picture there 8D

No need to apologize dear!

[identity profile] sanghamyers.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 10:57 am (UTC)(link)
One can customize S1 better like I did in diru_nandemo for example but only with a basic account when there's no damn ads everywhere. S2 has those many layouts where you can choose one but one can't change it completely. Yours right now is S1 generator, I guess?

If you want me to try out some layout styles with the banner you're using right now, tell me. Or then you could create a new header and I'll just code it? Whatever, just tell me. :)

for example I've made these with S2:
http://momijimanju.livejournal.com
http://aya_3003.livejournal.com
http://mog_fuyu.livejournal.com

And remember, just an offer, not a must. *blahs away XD*

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Uhm, no idea XD I know how to work with the styles technically, when it's about something simple. But I don't remember which is which. And I totally fail in coding properly, apparently. I tried to put both a header and a background image into my own journal back some months ago and failed miserably as I can't get the codes to work XD I can put both up separately but not at the same time.

It would be totally awesome if you could help with the codes^^ I will ask my hunneeeh if we wanna change the picture or keep the old one. You're just too good with all those and I appreciate the help!

Am I babbling? XD

[identity profile] sanghamyers.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
With a basic or paid account you can style really cool layouts, like yours or my writing journal, but with a sponsored account you can only use those S2 styles, but with an awesome header, these are beautiful too. And I'm sure you could make an awesome header like waoh!! XD

Yep, do that and I will gladly help. =D

And noooes, you're not babbling. Did you feel like you do? XD

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-11-01 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
I think we COULD switch back to basic account with this, if it means a cooler layout x) But let's see if I first get even a header done. Might take some time since I don't even have a picture chosen or anything XD

Thank you! :D

haha, I guess I did, a bit at least x)

[identity profile] sanghamyers.livejournal.com 2007-10-30 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes for Kaoru on bottom! =D

Sorry for interrupting. I have no life. T_T

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
Now I'm beginning to worry that I'm really the only one who prefers it the other way around XD

I should be on my organic chemistry lecture but I'm being a lazy bum right now.

[identity profile] sanghamyers.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 10:46 am (UTC)(link)
Nah, don't worry. I like both ways and I really don't like a girlie Kaoru but there's something about breaking the will of a dominant person. *lol*

(Sometimes laziness just rules. I don't have to work today - yays for it.)

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, but Die is a strong minded person too XD Doesn't that count? But yeah, I like both ways too, seriously^^

[identity profile] sanghamyers.livejournal.com 2007-10-31 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
But compared to Kaoru - who do you think wouldn't like to be ruled? XD

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-11-01 07:53 am (UTC)(link)
Well... hehe, seeing that they both seem stubborn, one can't really tell XD

I guess when it comes to choosing which one of them tops and which is bottom, I can only quote this one girl from dxk-comm. Kaoru tops because Die has such a nice long legs to wrap around him 8D

[identity profile] sanghamyers.livejournal.com 2007-11-01 09:03 am (UTC)(link)
Stubborn and strong-minded but it doesn't necessarily mean dominant. But who knows, Kaoru's exterior might be mistaken and he's actually the one who gladly obeys. :P

Haha, yeah right. But then I'd say Die tops because he's friggin' obsessed with Kaoru's fine and sexy butt *___* and I'm so not speaking MY mind here! Which means in the end: they have to switch whenever possible. No boring sexlife then. ^^

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-11-01 09:09 am (UTC)(link)
True x) Well, I won't argue with that. Maybe it's only that I heard that reasoning like every other minute at one point so it kinda begun to annoy me XD I don't know if it was bad luck or what, but something like a year ago I read like few dozen fics one after another and EACH AND EVERY ONE Kaoru was this dominant person who secretly wanted to obey in bed x) It got kinda tiring at one point. Buuuuuut I'm getting over it thank god XD

Ohgosh, Kaoru's butt truly is something to obsess over *_* But Die's non-existent one isn't bad either, you know ;) *coughs* I bet it's just what Kaoru wants 8D
So I come to the same conclusion! They have to switch often XD

[identity profile] sanghamyers.livejournal.com 2007-11-01 10:07 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, the last thing I'd want is arguing about it. Don't worry. I'm just babbling here. :3
Wah, really? Never even read one of those. Maybe that would cure the virus in my mind. oô XD But then, it's not really important anyway. As long as they stay in their characters. And one thing's for sure, that you do them honor by the way you make them act. I usually grow annoyed at one point in a fic when someone totally acts in one way and then suddenly switches as if they've grown another personality.

I know, I know ^^ Now you win. Next thing I would've pointed out would've been Kaoru's adorable belly and that he needs to lie down. XD *does another lame Kao joke* =D

See, now who's babbling? Sorry, I don't wanna annoy you. .___.

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-11-01 11:12 am (UTC)(link)
No no, I didn't mean it as in serious arguing or anything XD More like that I won't start diggin up my lame reasoning XD
I don't know, I guess I was just being extremely unlucky with my choice of fics to read at one point XD It was fine with the first fics, but then when I read the twentieth fic with Kaoru being übermacho and suddenly turning to a complete different thing when the bedroom door closes, I was beginning to see red understandably [is that even a word]. I don't know if I'm making any sense anymore... tell me if not.
And thank you! Heh, compliments like that so totally make my day XD

Kaoru's belly! *coughs* Don't make me go all fangirly over that as well XD I need a Kao!belly -icon! *shuts up*

You never annoy me! So babble away! I DEMAND you to babble XD

[identity profile] sanghamyers.livejournal.com 2007-11-01 12:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Me neither cause it's no issue to argue about seriously. But I can quickly end up discussing things by pointing out stuff from all kinds of views and then it'll never end. *lol*
*coughs* I recently read something where at first Kaoru appeared totally in character and then he turned out to be a cry-baby and at last a beast in bed. Now I'm totally annoyed because it's not flowing, as if he's a schizo. XD My mind can't grasp that when it's too drastic.
So Kaoru in just NORMAL I like best where he can be everything but not too much. Now, do I make sense? I lost track of my mind. XD And I feel almost bad for only talking about him and not about Die. Hmmm~ *ponders* I know people who can't imagine him topping at all. Hehe, I dunno why though.

KAO!BELLY O_O Oooh what a word... makes me all gaga. XD Heh, and I found a great pic to write something on. I'll show you when I'm done. XD

Request fulfilled? XDDDD

[identity profile] fonulyn.livejournal.com 2007-11-01 02:50 pm (UTC)(link)
haha, I know how it is. And then at one point I might become simply totally stubborn, and then the discussion never ends because I can't stop before convincing everyone to agree with me. And that, unfortunately, rarely happens XD

That's the thing, as long as they're logical I can live with different characterizations. I can even live with a crybaby, not not with someone who turns from crybaby to a tough guy just randomly.

You mean you know people who can't imagine Die topping at all or Kao topping at all? heh, and I know the feeling, sometimes I feel bad because I only get stuck talking about one of them, when actually both deserve as much attention as possible XD

You'd better show me when you're done! I'm curious now XD haha, and KAO!BELLY is just something people should worship ;) I would pay a lot to get to touch it.

haha, thank you XD

[identity profile] sangha-ff.livejournal.com 2007-11-01 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
People who can't imagine Die topping at all. -.- Pretty much everybody seems to be able to imagine Kao but Die... and I don't get it cause he seems pretty strong and not less of a strong-minded person. Though maybe he'd easier give in. XD

Now it's done. *points at icon* I suck making icons. I better go back to coding layouts. XD
