-_- this better be worth getting my neck wrung like a dish rag...

Oh, I forgot to write this in the rewrite of Celestial Bride for the newbies to my story. Yes, this is indeed a crossover of blue exorcist and black bird. The only reason I haven't marked it under a crossover is due to the lack of mention of the black bird characters and because Black Bird isn't as popular amongst the masses as blue exorcist. If I had stuck through with it and marked it as a crossover, it wouldn't have gotten as many views and fans as it currently has, and alot of people wouldn't have taken the time to discover Black Bird.

You will see eventually that Kyo and Misao make their way into the story line, but until then, I'll be keeping this marked as a blue exorcist fic.

Rachael: ...Mana... Say something...

Mana: *Frozen staring into camera lens*

Rachael: ...ugh... *Leans out of director seat and pinches her arm*

Mana: OW! F-Fine...! Erm... oh God, why am I doing this again...?

Rachael: This is part of an advertisement campaign, you agreed to it when you signed your contract.

Mana: What the hell...? I never saw it anywhere!

Rachael: Page 16, sub-section 3C. Maybe you would have if you had read through the whole thing, like a smart cookie. Why do you think you're doing this instead of Mephisto...?

Mana: 'Cuz he probably ran away before you could grab him... I dunno... Besides, my Mom told me she read... it... for me... GOD DAMMIT I SHOULD HAVE GUESSED-

Rachael: *Sigh* Just read the script and let's get this over with... And SELL IT! ... 3... 2... 1... ACTION!

Mana: E-Erm... H-Hey there... Guys and Gals... Damn it! Rachael, I can't do it!

Rachael: Son of a- Just move. *shoves Mana out of the way*

Heh-hey there, guys and gals! Mostly gals! Rachael here, and do I have a proposition for you!

Mana: ...I hate you...

Rachael: Quiet you! *Death glare*

Any who~ I am going to host a contest, and I really hope you are interested~! I will be holding a contest for the best Celestial Bride fan art~! Here's what to do:

1. Go to my deviantart account (RachaelxThexStrange) and look at my most recent pic of Mana, so that you get a good idea of how she looks!

2. Draw your favorite pairing! As in ManaxBlue Exorcist character. I suppose you could draw her with any character, but I'm looking for the ones who she interacts with most in this series (Rin, Suguro, Mephisto, and Amaimon ((Who hasn't yet appeared, but he will in just a few chapters)))

3. PM me on here, or message me on deviantart so that I'll be able to review your drawing.

Now, for the prizes...

Mana: W-WAIT! Pairings! Whaddya mean pairings! It's not gonna be... like... couple stuff... right...?

Rachael: Well, duhhh. Otherwise they wouldn't be pairings.

Mana: But what if someone draws something embarrassing! Like, kissing, or hugging, or something risqué!

Rachael: Ooooooh~! The cuter and fluffier the better~! 3

Mana: NOOOOOOO! *hyperventilating in the corner*

Aaaaaanyway, I suppose I'll decide a winner on February 14th. Yup, you guessed it, Valentines day 3 Fitting, no?

First I must say that the winning fan art will not be the deciding factor of who Mana ends up with. Only I can decide who she ends up with. However, the winner will get to come up with a scene for Mana and the character of her choosing, that can be funny, romantic, funny, disturbing, or maybe even all of the above! However, I won't do a kissing scene~! I already know who I Mana's first kiss will be ;)

Mana: Why the hell do you get to decide that? That's not fair! And why the hell don't I get a say? You know I like- *Dodges directors chair*

Oi. Don't let 'em know. Besides, Life's not fair, sweetie, and this is MY fanfiction. So, yeah, let's see that fan art roll in please! :D I look forward to everyone's submissions~!

Rachael: *Turns off Camera* Phah. I do your job better than you do- GWAH!

Mana: *Choking Rachael* I'LL KILL YOU! :O
