Minute Maid currently... is editing.

Here's the TL;DR version: I like pie, and I like Minute Maid.

Feel free to stalk me, I probably won't say anything about it even if I notice because I'll like the attention. If you tell me beforehand I may even help you in your illegal endeavours. I'm not even bothered by private messages of eternal love and devotion, but I will delete offensive ones with extreme prejudice. If my web-presence is the extent of your stalking, you can find me under the same username or similar variant.

I would like to explicitly state at this point, for legal reasons, that I do not condone stalking someone.

Message me whenever you like, I'll get back to you in a timely manner. Ask me about anything; my favourite colour, my favourite pie recipe, my thoughts on world domination. I have no secrets. And no, I don't remember you from the forest.

My policy has not changed (unless you count the lack of bolding): No Reviews = No Updates.

NEWS UPDATES = STUFF TO READ

September 1, 2017 - Guess what!? Chapter 22 is live! I keep my promises. More frequently than "Never." By the way, yes! I've finished writing it all. It's all done. When will the last chapter come out? Gosh. You should know me better than to ask that by now.

December 12, 2017 - Liar Liar Chapter FINAL IS OUT!

December 26, 2017 - Looks like there's problems with uploading things, so the last update is postponed until further notice. I'll post it once I hear back from tech support.

December 27, 2017 - Technical crisis averted. Liar Liar Epilogue is out! And no one is happier about that than me.

December 28, 2017 - I feel like I just left an abusive relationship; I feel so free now. A Code Geass One Shot, by request, posted: "Come Morning."

May 3, 2018 - I owed someone a thing, so it got posted. Liar Liar Extra 5 is out! In other news, I've been slowly bleeding my time into another adorable, little rabbit. It's only a matter of time before it starts to freeload in my head space too.

BTW - This space is constantly (that is a lie) updated, so check back often!

Because I believe in public shaming for being a Negative Nancy.

Long-time reader: "Well... that was a disgusting waste of time. I really wish you wouldn't have baited. Sigh. That wasn't cool and I hope you write something less disgustingly baity full of heteronormatives in the future..."

MinuteMaid: THEN I'M GLAD I COULD WASTE THE PORTION OF YOUR LIFE YOU SPENT TO READ THIS. There's a good chunk of words in this story, so I'm glad I could literally waste life you'll never get back. 10/10. Would do again. I write what I want how I want. Now go fly a kite.

Live Journal Plug: August 15, 2016 Update

minutemaid511. livejournal. com/ (FFnet is still dumb and doesn't like external links even though they give you the option to and that's LAME.)

I don't keep all my writerings here, just the favourites, so pop over to my LJ and read everything else. All fanfiction, all the time. Original stuff is kept elsewhere. Like my hard-drive. Shameless plug is shameless plug for you to go and read all of that if you've read my stuff here and felt that overwhelming sadness of "There's no more? Why is there no more!?" Well, there's more. (Unfortunately.)

ooo

"Like and Like"

Code Geass CC, Lelouch

Synopsis: They met each other in a temporary storm, and they never thought it would be something that lasted longer than the bright flashes of light searing the sky.

Comment: Originally to be a Liar Liar backstory, but was too depressing so I rewrote it as a standalone.

I figure I'll say this now:

I write characters based on the setting they're put into and the influences they might have come across to the point where the story starts. If it's canon-based their characters will be canon, but I hardly write canon so HUZZAH FOR CREATIVE LOOP-HOLES. But, seriously, no QQing about stuff like that or I'm going to tell you to go fly a kite. I recommend red ones. They tend to get higher altitude because of their ability to absorb heat better. The ones that are decorated with flames are even better. Sunlight is absolutely attracted to flame designs. You could say that the sun finds them super hot. HA! Hot! Get it? Sun? Hot? It's because the sun is... No, I'm not sorry for that one.

Stories Being Worked On:

Liar Liar - For the Love of Pie (Code Geass)

Status: Six?

Progress: Extra Five - Big Brother

"Apologize for pie!"

Stories Being Not Worked On:

Knight by Conscription (Code Geass)

Status: Writing Chapter 4.

Progress: Chapter 3: That Which We Call a Rose

All he wanted was a normal life; a normal house, a normal dog, a normal wife. What he got was knighthood to a prince he wanted very much to stab with a knife.

Comments: :P

Liar Game (CCS - SS)

Status: Postponed

Tokyo: the technological capital of the world; the only city living in its own 31st century, mechanically-regulated bubble, and the home of the world’s nastiest criminals. Li is a thief and a felon on the run and ends up bumping into the sweet, innocent kingpin of the world’s largest crime circle. Can he con his way out of this one and lie to avoid both the authorities and opposite end of the law?

Comments: Liar Game was inspired by a mixture of Liar Game by Kaitani Shinobu, and the amazing Peacewish's Wild Flower. Which is reminiscent of Firefly (cue the /tears).

Salvation through Faith (Code Geass)

Status: Writing Chapter 3

Progress: Chapter 2: Pride of the Faithful

And so their messiah—for he was a messiah to them—said proudly, “Let there be salvation through faith; through me your Eden of tomorrow. For I have made a Faustian bargain, follow me and I will show you a world with no sin.”
