I saw a few of these around, and I'm happy to say that I've joined all 3 of them xD I thought... well, why not write one of my own? Since I'm getting a little bit of writer's block for Shallow Diving (promise you an update before I have to go back to school D:), I though I'd try this to get my creative juices flowing.

RULES:

1. You can submit up to 2 OCs, but if you do and I love them both, every person can only have 1 of their characters as part of the 'main cast'. The other might be a reoccurring side character if I like them enough.

2. PMs ONLY. I will not accept your character if the form is submitted to the review box.

3. If your character is accepted, I might ask the creators to submit a few things to me, every once in a while, so please, make sure you're relatively active and keep updated :D

4. Have fun making your character! I know the form's long, but I really like detail – and if you aren't having fun creating your OC, then what's the point of even doing it?

5. SUBMISSIONS WILL BE OPEN UNTIL AUGUST 30th, 2013 AT THE EARLIEST. I might extend the deadline if needed.

ABOUT THE STORY

I will need 3 female character and 3 male characters, to form an additional swim team for both Iwatobi and Samezuka, along with 3-5 side character (of which two will be the managers for the teams). My two characters (1 female, 1 male) will be included in both teams. I'll introduce them when I get back from my little vacation~

It will NOT be first come first serve, and I'll choose whichever OCs catch my eye for being unique. We need some happy, bubbly characters up in here! There aren't enough of them xD

As for pairings, since romance is always the selling point, there could be romance between OCs or between OCs and canon characters, or even between canon characters and canon characters. Het, yaoi and yuri alike. So... so, yes. xD I tend to be a bit biased towards OC x OC, since I think it's cute. And yaoi *cough* Ahem.

More details will be added as time goes on.

Here's the form! PM me!
