Disclaimer: I am in no way affiliated with the bands, people, artists, and musicians mentioned in the story. The story is a work of pure fiction and is in no way meant to represent or reflect the real bands, people, artists, and musicians mentioned in any way. Any similarities are pure coincidences. I do not make anything off of the story as this is simply meant for pure enjoyment. No harm or disrespect in any way is intended. I do not own anything except the story.
Note: It was an idea invented by my good friend on MH who was really itching to write this story, lol. We’ve read it over, but there might still be some finger errors. Many apologies in advance any mistakes (and our weird fascination with odd pairings in general). More thoughts at the end. Enjoy!

Also, this story wasn’t made with the monthly VK challenge in mind, but I think it fits best with Quote #1 (“Super Star” by 8P-SB) and Moodboard 10: Modern Japan. Hope that’s okay ^^

Posted on AO3 as well. --> Unavowed Love Post

Author’s Note

There were several written versions before we finally wrote this finished product. We didn’t actually intend to write this odd ship, but what can you do with your spontaneous muses? We also thought it might be funny to insert some “fourth wall jokes” as well. Hopefully, that didn’t come out too weird, haha.

Either way, it’s our first time writing together, so please forgive any awkward moments XD We also have another interesting story in the works, so please keep an eye out for that as well :)

As for my own stories, I’m still working through it. I haven’t forgotten ^^; I’ve just hit a writer’s road block for it and am currently stuck. But please do not worry~ I’ll get it out as soon as I can. Thank you so much for your patience!

Artificial Angels: Genuine Hearts - Chapter 1

2019-03-10T15:57:49Z

Artificial Angels: Genuine Hearts
Chapter(s): 1/??
Chapter Title: Pandora’s Cage
Co-authors:atmosphere_zero and riyusama
Ratings: PG-13
Genres: Action, Comedy, Fantasy, Romance
Warning(s): Blood, Expletive language, Violence
Band(s): RAZOR, SCREW, the GazettE
Pairing(s)/Characters(s): ByouxJin, ManabuxJin, KazukixManabu, Uruha (the GazettE), Kouryu (RAZOR), and more
Summary: Tasked on a mission to raid one of Rebellion's bases, two angels, Byou and Manabu stumble upon a hidden room by their enemies. Faced by the unbeknownst, they take on the chance that this may be their key to ending a war that has been going on for millennia. But the question remains, will this secret end the war with the Rebellion or will this become the end for everyone instead?

The story is a work of pure fiction and is in no way meant to represent or reflect the real bands, people, artists, and musicians mentioned in any way. Any similarities are pure coincidences. I do not make anything off of the story as this is simply meant for pure enjoyment. No harm or disrespect in any way is intended. I do not own anything except the story.
Notes: This story spawned from an idea when riyusama and I were talking about SCREW’s best-of album, Brilliant, and discussed about the photobook, which came with it and showed their white, angel-like costumes. At the same time, we noticed their poses inside the cage as well. Somehow, one thing led to another, and boom – this story came to life. The story idea is still a little rough, but I think it’s still pretty funny and exciting. Anyway, enjoy our story, and more thoughts below ^_^ (Btw, writing action scenes is not my forte ;w;)

Chapter 1: DW || AO3

( I thought you didn’t like being called cute, Jinny. )

Author's Notes

atmosphere_zero thoughts
As written earlier, this story spawned because of the photobook, which came with their best-of album, Brilliant. We’re still figuring out the story as we go, but please look forward to the next chapter! As for the other stories, I apologize for the lack of updates ;w; But rest assured, I'm still working on it and will get those updated asap!

Riyusama’s thoughts
So when me and atmosphere were talking about SCREW's Brilliant album and then looking at their photos, one of my brain cells told my other brain cell "Hey! Let's make a fantasy fic out of this!" then my other brain cell replied with "Yeah! Let's make a collab with atmosphere!" so they told atmosphere's brain cells and their brain cells agreed with my brain cells and that's how we got to this trainwreck shit show of drowning in more fanfic. The End. owo

Currently I'm stuck in a writer's block for one of my stories because I cannot figure out a certain pairing. I already know what I want to do with the rest of the story. It's literally this one pairing combination that is putting a huge halt on the rest. Why can't my brain make up its mind?

I've only started the other story with KazukixJin, and I now want to write this other idea floating in my head. My mind seems to come up with the ideas faster than I can write them x_x;

Author’s Thoughts/Comments

Note #1

The Cardcaptor Sakura’s song mentioned in the chapter is the opening song for the Japanese version, not the epic-sounding one in the English dubbed version. The title of the Japanese version is called "Catch You, Catch Me". Here is the anime opening version of the song:

Here is the full version of the song if anyone is curious:

Lastly, for anyone doubly curious, the translation of the lyrics is posted here: "Catch you, Catch me" Lyrics

Note #2

Ahaha, okay, let me explain the origin of this story. So, the idea was conceived around the time when SCREW released their single, Brainstorm.

During this time, I had been busy writing my own stories and dealing with other RL business. A good friend on LJ, misfitmisfit had me watch the making-of for SCREW’s “Brainstorm” song on YouTube since she wrote this hilarious KazukixJin fanfic, and she wanted me to understand the hilarious context behind that one. (For those who are interested, here is the link to that comedic story: French Maids, Butlers, and Cigarettes, Oh My! This one is on LJ, and I have no control over it ^^;)

I loved the humorous story, and we thought they would make a funny, cute pairing. Thus, we decided to collaborate and figure out how to put them in a story together. After many other pairing attempts and fuck-ups, we placed them in this slightly more serious storyline. (Although, it doesn’t seem that way at the moment, does it?) Sadly, things happened, and we were never able to completely finish the whole idea.

Fast forward to the present, I began to re-read through some of the (super) rough drafts, and after asking for misfitmisfit's permission to revive the story, I decided to officially pick it up again. Unfortunately, this time around, I'll be writing it alone. But hey! Who doesn't want more stories of Kazuki and Jin together? (Okay, maybe just me.) Nonetheless, I hope to be able to keep up the momentum for this somewhat raunchy but cute story.

For now, the first chapter contains Kazuki and Jin, but more characters will be creeping into the story. So, look forward to reading more about them :)

Many thanks goes out to my original co-author, misfitmisfit for creating this crazy story and helping me out with its revival! Also, a big shout out to my stupendous beta-reader riyusama for reading through the draft of this story <3 I apologize for all of my horrible mistakes ;w; Lastly, but not least, a big thanks to the readers for reading through this story.

Note #3

To those wondering what happened to my AoixManabu story, rest assured! I’m still hacking away at it. In fact, a part of Chapter 3 is already written. Unfortunately, I'm having a bit of writer's block for it atm, but please don't fret :) I am working my way through it.

Also, I was also looking to tackle this month’s challenge for the vkyaoi community after missing October’s. Somehow, my muses for this story got carried away big time, and I let them take me pretty much wherever they go. Also, riyusama pointed out that this story and my café story had some similarities. I didn’t even realize it until I read through this chapter again. I promise they will be quite different in terms of what will happen ^^;

Enough of my ramblings, I am going to start writing the next part >w>

Comments and constructive criticisms are greatly appreciated!

Chapter 1 || Chapter 2

( I haven't driven a car in ages! )

Author's Comments/Thoughts

Note 1: Neko Atsume is a cat collecting game, and they are also cute adorable little stuffed animals that you can buy or win in the arcade stores like Tomo in the story did. For more info, please read here: Neko Atsume: Kitty Collector Official Website.

Note 2: Byou mentioned the place, izakaya, which is the Japanese version of a gastropub. For more information, check out the following links: Izakayas in Japan and How & Why to Visit an Izakaya (Japanese Gastropub).

After completing the first chapter, I struggled in figuring out how to continue with the story. With some brainstorming (and help from riyusama), I was able to finish this chapter. It came out longer than the first one, but there were some key points in the story that I wanted to include. I apologize for the length!

Also, I know I focused on seemingly random people at certain points in the story, but they will all become important later on down the road. More Aoi (and Manabu) moments will be appearing in the story. So please stay tuned :)

Constructive criticisms and comments are greatly appreciated!

( Damn. If I didn’t know any better, I would have pegged him as a hot woman. )

Author's Comments/Thoughts

I was racking my brain on how to write the September challenge prompt for the vkyaoi community, and riyusama gave me some tumblr webpages for prompt ideas. Then the idea hit me, and the creative juices in my brain started to flow. (Also, thanks so much to riyusama for beta-reading the story after I posted it XP Thanks, girl!)

Ironically, I intended to write this idea as a one-shot story, but then somehow, it spiraled into a multi-chapter story XD Nonetheless, I'm pretty excited to write a brand new story. I know there weren't too many romantic moments in this short chapter, but I promise that more will be coming up. Stay tuned!

Constructive criticisms and comments are greatly appreciated!

My Life According To... SCREW

2018-09-11T11:47:01Z

Instead of being productive and working on the story (which I hope to finish soon ^^;), I discovered this old meme I posted ages ago. An LJ friend of mine wrote it on her journal first, and I made a post on it later. Originally, I used SCREW song titles. The original post is over here: My Life According to SCREW.

The rules of the meme/questionnaire are as follows:

Use only the song names from ONE ARTIST to answer the following questions. Pass it on to other people and include the person who gave it to you (if you want, XP).

Don'ts:
~~- no reusing bands~~ (many of us share interests in the same bands, so this rule is irrelevant, XD)
- no repeating of song titles

Do's:
- Repost as "my life according to (band name)"

Eh, other than picking one band, the other rules are moot :P I'm using SCREW's songs again because... why not? XD Let's give it a whirl!

Describe yourself: molder
How do you feel: BRILLIANT
Describe where you currently live: BRAINSTORM
If you could go anywhere, where would you go?: The Seventh Heaven
Your favorite form of transportation?: GLASS CAGE
Your best friend: daring driver
You and your best friends are: 小夜啼鳥 [Evening Chirping Birds]
What's the weather like: ANCIENT RAIN
Favorite time of day: DEADLY SILENCE
If your life was a TV show, what would it be called: 明晰夢 [Lucid Dream]
What is life to you: THICK-SKINNED†CONTRADICTION
Your relationship: Haze
Your fear: SPIRAL OF MISTRUST
What is the best advice you have to give: 白雪と舞う [To dance with white snow]
Thought for the Day: 踊 (Dance)
How you would like to die: VANQUISH
My soul's present condition: 覚醒 [Revival/Awakening]
My motto: ANIMA

Events/Concerts Itinerary/List

2018-09-11T07:05:27Z

A super old list of events/concerts that happened in the spring of 2013. [A partial post brought over from LJ.] I've posted it here on DW in case LJ decides to delete my posts or the website completely dies, lol.

For the original LJ post, look here: List of Events/Concerts~.

NEW: A part of this post originated from LJ, but as I've been getting back into music, I'm planning and/or attending some lives/concerts. So, I decided to make a list and keep track of my past and future concert schedule~ If we attend any of the same ones, then maybe we can go together? XD

I'm not sure if I will be writing live reports ~_~; But if I make any notes or live reports, I'll probably leave it opened for a few days before locking it. Many apologies for any inconveniences m(_ _)m

As a note, I will not be updating the LJ one, just this DW one. Apologies for any inconveniences m(_ _)m Also, I've put all the past years under the cut and left the most recent ones out for easy viewing :) [FYI: The translation of the line-cut is not mine! Please check out this wordpress for their full translation: DISTRESS AND COMA (Lyrics)]

NOTE: TBC (to be canceled) = unsure/still deciding; ticket not yet bought; lottery raffle; etc.

Writing Archive

2018-08-31T00:39:31Z

I haven't written much yet, but I figured I should start making one since I have some neat ideas that I would like to write.

As I write more, I will continue to update this page as soon as possible. If you see any mistakes, then please let me know right away. For the most current information on the status of any story/one-shot, please refer to this post. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask me.

I also have a LJ Writing Archive, however, that one is now defunct and will no longer be updated. However, I left all my older works on LJ intact. If you would like to (re)visit/(re)read anything, then please visit this link: Writing Archive on LiveJournal. On the LJ archive, I have listed various unfinished stories. Unfortunately, I will not be finishing those stories unless it is specifically stated otherwise in this Dreamwidth archive post. Many apologies in advance!

The Silent Whispers of the Heart - Part 11 (The End)

2018-08-30T22:55:24Z

The Silent Whispers of the Heart
Chapter: 11/11
Authors: atmosphere_zero and misfitmisfit
Genres: Angst, Comedy, Romance, School life, AU
Rating: PG13 - NC-17
Warning(s): Strong Language, Some violence, Mention of rape (No, it doesn't happen for real, >.>;;;), Men kissing, Sexual Scenes
Band(s): Alice Nine, the GazettE, Vidoll
Pairing(s): ToraxUruha, ShunxUruha, ToraxKanon(solo artist)
Cameos Appearance(s): ???? (It would be no fun if I told you, now would it?)
Summary: A simple denial turned into a cruel reality.
Disclaimer: I am in no way affiliated with the bands, people, artists, and musicians mentioned in the story. The story is a work of pure fiction and is in no way meant to represent or reflect the real bands, people, artists, and musicians mentioned in any way. Any similarities are pure coincidences. I do not make anything off of the story as this is simply meant for pure enjoyment. No harm or disrespect in any way is intended. I do not own anything except the story.
Notes: This story started out more than seven years ago, and today, I finally post the last chapter to finish it off. To make a long story short, this chapter has been sitting on my computer for the past couple of years. Unfortunately, real life got in the way, and it slipped my mind. However, I looked through my folders and spotted the final chapter to this story. Thus, I decided to do a little bit of editing before posting it. Nonetheless, I retained most of what misfitmisfit, another LJ-user, and I wrote together. I apologize for any mistakes or awkward writing. It's been a while since I've written a fanfic. The previous chapters are on LJ, however, access should not be a problem since all entries are still opened and available to read. More thoughts at the end.

Previous Chapters: Chapter 1 || Chapter 2 || Chapter 3 || Chapter 4 || Chapter 5 || Chapter 6 || Chapter 7 || Chapter 8 || Chapter 9 || Chapter 10a/Chapter 10b || Chapter 11 (The end)

( How much of a fool could he be? )

Author's Note:

The song Kanon plays at the end is officially called Elegie in C minor, Op. 24. It was written by a French composer called Gabriel Faure. For more information on the song, here is the Wikipedia link: Elegie (Faure). If you want to listen to the sad song, here is an amazing version to listen to: Jacqueline du Pré (1962).

Author's Comments/Thoughts

And so here is the end of one of my multi-chaptered stories. When I first started out writing this story, I had every intention of finishing it. But then circumstances in real life kicked me in the behind, and I thought I would never be able to return to this lovely story and finish it off. It was actually the second story (not counting one-shots) I ever wrote when I first started out writing fanfics. Despite all the ups and downs throughout life, I thoroughly enjoyed hammering out the details to this story with my co-author, misfitmisfit. If I had another chance to write this story again, I would definitely do a better job. However, I am happy with the way it came out, and I hope the readers did, too.

Nonetheless, I am back in writing mode, and I hope to write more now. Until the next story, peace out.

Hi! How are you? It's been a long time since I've had something like this, haha~ I put the 'friends only banner', but feel free to add me. (A bonus if we share some stuff in common!) Please drop a comment to this post if you can ^w^

This journal contains fanfictions and random ramblings about visual kei or whatever else. Not sure what will be locked or not. But stories will definitely remain opened.

Thank you so much! I look forward to getting to know you ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ
