cheerfulFor those of you who read my update on my profile about story requests, there are a few guidelines to go by....
Anime:
This is an absolute must, as I may have no clue as to the anime that you are describing, or the characters that you're talking about. I will need to do background research in order to keep the characters out of the dreaded OOC range. There's nothing more displeasing, in my opinion, than a character who acts completely the opposite out of how they would originally act...
Characters Used:
Whether or not you wish for the whole cast of characters, or only a select few, this is also a definite must for me to have in order to write your requested story the way you wish. If you have no preference on this, please be warned that this allows me to use whomever I wish. So, if you would like to specify, this may be best...
Pairings:
If you give me no pairings, then I assume you simply want a one-shot that only has one main character, or, one main character and side character 'strict friendships.' If this is what you want, this is needed to be specified, as well, or I may pair up people that you never wished to be together. Be warned, my imagination runs away any chance it gets to...
Rating:
Ahaha, everyone should be aware of the rating system. From fluffy sweet clouds that break your teeth from cuteness or such sexual activites end up with your keyboard and screen soaked in blood. I have been proclaimed the "Queen Of Fluff" from several of my friends, but I have also been known to write lemons for people, so I am capable of both categories, and even in-between, if you're not quite in the mood for fluff, or if you're a bit too sensitive for lemons.
Description (Plotline):
If you have a strict plot line you wish for me to follow, this is also necessary to be specified. Otherwise, I will simply write my own plotline. So, if you want flying unicorns or dragons breathing cotton candy, please tell me when sending me the message.
OC's:
And no, that doesn't stand for Orange County... x] If you have an original character, then obviously, you will need to describe them to the fullest of your ability to me, so I don't butcher them. A reference picture would be absolutely lovely, also, if you have one handy. Anything and everything about this OC is necessary, right down to their favorite things to do, who they're paired with, etc. For example...
1. What is your full name? Do you have a nickname?

Now, obviously, the FF.net inbox system only allots a certain amount of letters, so if all of that doesn't fit, please feel free to send me this information to my e-mail at llawlietfangirl@yahoo.com with the subject title "Story Request Please!" So I know that it's not spam -_-
