This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)

Two things about that fic are beyond me -- one, how I only ran across it ages after it was written, and two, how few people I've then run across who have read it. It's criminal. I adore that fic, dammit! (I only wish I'd written it! school-devil)

I can't believe it's taken me this long to read it either.  It doesn't show up if you run a search for Touga/Saionji fanfiction. emot-mad

Re: Please Pledge Your Fanfiction for Coco today

Thanks for the wonderful review you gave me! But I might need to clear something up. Earth-22 was originally a miniseries called Kingdom Come, written by Mark Waid and Alex Ross. When DC Comics brought back the whole Multiverse thing, Kingdom Come was luckily enough to be a part of it.

Also, BlackRoseVixen, I;m going to start reading your fanfic since everyone says such nice things about it.

Oh, and I added something else to fanfic.net that isn't Utena. It's called Dark Mansion of Forbidden Love.

Re: Please Pledge Your Fanfiction for Coco today

There's good fanfiction out there on Fanfiction.Net and there's really bad fanfiction. By bad, I mean MSTing it would be complimenting the author. Hopefully I can steer you to some good fanfiction...

Thirty Ways to Torture Miki, by Ravenbell.
Some of the chapters are very unforgiving, so tread lightly if you're a Miki fan like Reanna. Which reminds me...

Ecchi Adventures, by none other than Baka Kakumei Reanna.
Despite what she says on the forums, she's a talented writer, and it shows. If you think Ecchi Adventures is funny, you might like her lighthearted other self-insertion story...

Murasakibara no Saga, also by Baka Kakumei Reanna.
It's a good read. The English title is "The Purple Rose Saga." Makes sense, as Reanna takes one for the team in the form of the purple rose.

On the personal front, there's Carmine Touch, written by me and posted under the same name I use for the forums. It's been posted in IFD, too, but this version is more complete. For an interesting idea that is still in progress, check out my Utena/Terranigma crossover, Shadow of Revolution. It's definitely more Utena, as only similar themes from Terranigma have been added to the story.

In the immortal words of the late Douglas Adams...

Share and Enjoy!

Re: Please Pledge Your Fanfiction for Coco today

My ficcies.

My Utena one is rather embarrassing since it was written back in the good ole days when I was fourteen ... with my love for the manga ... and UxT. Durrr. It's somewhat famous with the UxT fans on the net. Because my views on Utena have changed rather drastially since then ... I'm not sure how well anyone will take it. People still tell me that they really enjoy it ... but now, I'm not so sure ...

My Cardcaptor one ... is probably just as embarrassing. It's a non-canon pairing (Tomoyo and Eriol). I have no idea why I love the pairing. Probably because they would look cute together ... though it's literally impossible.

The Libation Bearers, which is my Final Fantasy IX fic is my pride and joy of the moment. It's currently on hiatus because of school, but will get going again during the summer. If the title looks familiar, yes, it is loosely based off of Aeschylus's play, but follows closer to Eurpides's version (which is title Electra). I'm a geek of Greek mythology. Please read this if any of my fics.

Oh yes for Clarice poptart thanks a lot! Also, I read a lot of your essays when I first entered the SKU fandom. Yea, I'm a closet Clarice fangirl don't shoot me.

Ahahahahaha, like I'd shoot you for that. poptart I like closets. school-devil

emot-danceemot-dance now that's a relief

Now....

POPTARTS!!

Reccing is as respectful and goddamn beautiful as plugging is so an extra one goes to the lovely Clarice: poptart and also two for the brilliant Bio: poptart poptart for doing both. You are both examples of people dedicated and willing to contribute to a good cause, eat your cyber treats like war hero's wear medals of honour.

Looking forward to Anthiena, Biokraze, Ashnod, AnjitheArtist and Rae's work, haven't read any FF9 works in a long time now so I might check out The Libation Bearers as well, and no worries about it being you first or early on, *looks at Anji and Rae*, though I'm not farmilar with the manga I might have to read UxT with the movieverse in mind.

Deadwood by Celeste Goodchild (i.e Clarice) was REALLY good by the way.

I think I'm gonna try out the Utena/Eva fic next. If I get time maybe I might even be able to fit a Rec in as well.

Re: Please Pledge Your Fanfiction for Coco today

*screams* emot-aaa Clarice, I love you, those rec's were awesome, I didn't sleep until 5:30 in the morning yesterday because I was up reading Ever, I think I've actually been on strangeplaces.net but I would never have found that fic on my own. Thanks a LOT! I have also read the prequeal which was equally awesome. God, why doesn't this person have any more fic emot-mad I also read the prince and the pauper which was lovely and bittersweet, just for the record, if there's any other fic's you like, seriously, feel free to rec them to me, I totally trust your opioun.

I'm halfway through Shin Kakumei Evangelion by Ashnod, the fourth disc I think, and it's looking to be quite the story script, I wasn't sure how it would work but it's turned out to be a pleasant surprise, I can't wait to see what happens on the final disc!!

Again thanks to everyone for contributing, also, I know there are more authors in here, *sends out piercing looks* if any of you have anything to offer, please feel free to contribute, I'm sure I'm not the only one who is benefiting from this fanfiction aid.

I think that's me recc'ed out, unfortunately; the only other fics I really remember are Archimage (which I only got halfeay through) and Jaquemart, which had me throwing things against a wall after a while (it started well, petered out, went weird, is my memory of it). But yes. Ever After. Christ, what I wouldn't give for more from that author. emot-biggrin

That's quite funny I've had the /exact/ same expierence with BOTH those fic's, since I'm guessing their like the epic's of this fandom. Its things like Ever After why I can never beat my self-inflicted sleep deprevation, I would of kept on going if it wasn't for that meddling end. *sings* why do good things come to an end.

Also I have bone to pick with you Clarice emot-mad I've become a Nemuro/Mikage fangirl, and its all your fault, I hope your happy now, what have you got to say for yourself.


Finished Thirty-ways to torture Miki, thanks BioKraze, I've said it before but just for the record, it's shocking the lack of attention some of the great fic's in this fandom get. I was convulsing by the time I got half-way through this thing, it /was/ actually quite sad and downright frightening in places but man I couldn't stop laughing, Miki is just so damn easy to torture, I went to bed laughing at Mamiya's line, that will now and forever be a classic.

Re: Please Pledge Your Fanfiction for Coco today

To Rae: I should have said before but the linkie doesn't work

I have never heard of Terranigma but I admit I'm curious. I've read Carmine touch, (which has actually inspired me) found it very creepy and haunting, especially the end, I think Poison would suit it very nicely. I have no clue why I haven't commented till now, *shrugs* go figure, here's a poptart: poptart

I've just read Blue Alert (only one chapter?), and liked it, that's good especially for a first fic (or fic in a long time), I found the strengths were in the visual descriptive narrative and Miki's non-too happy thoughts, yes, Kozue *should* have fangs in that pretty little mouth of hers. Here well deserved: poptart
