*looks at to-do list*

Oh, right, now my brain decides it wants to tell stories.

The day the availability of my writing ability lines up with the availability of my free time, I will throw a fucking parade.

Hmph.

The first ten people to leave drabble requests may get something written for them when I've listened to these lecture recordings and typed up notes. Fandoms I'm currently feeling creatively inclined towards are Bones, Avatar, Naruto and...probably Iron Man. You could try me with Doctor Who/Torchwood or BSG, but I'm massively behind on all of them. Or you could just throw a random prompt up there and then bat your eyes hopefully -- you know me, I'm not very good at turning down challenges.

"At least you have a history!" Naruto is yelling. "At least you know who your family is."

This is an old argument. Neji suspects he is simply the easiest person for Naruto to argue with, in the absence of any other likely suspects. The knowledge just makes him angrier.

"You know nothing," he hisses. "You have no idea what I would give to be free of my name's weight."

He waits for the next outburst, but after a moment Naruto lifts his hand and Neji stands very still as the Uzumaki pushes his hitai-ate and his headband upwards as a single block of fabric, laying bare the blue lines on his forehead. Naruto traces them with one finger and Neji thinks, all right then, and puts his own hand square against the curse seal on the other boy's stomach. He can feel body warmth through the shirt and he can feel roiling spitting power underneath that, totally at odds with Naruto's calm eyes.

They stand like that for a while and then Naruto says, his voice layered with laughter, "I suppose we could call this one a draw."

Neither of them are the type to accept compromise. But Neji nods.

Hyuuga Neji can read violence in the line of someone's elbow and envy in the pattern of their lips and breath -- he's good, he's very good, but if the people around him are books then Naruto is written in large, stark characters meant for people with the blindness that Neji's eyes only hint mockingly at, or for children. He is a book well illustrated. Open and guileless in everything he does and every expression that moves fluidly across his features, simple to interpret, effortless to read.

This would be easy, Neji realises. He moves his fingers purposefully against the seal and Naruto looks at him, curious and aware, the heat of his skin and the violence of his chakra creating something in Neji's body that he is far too self-aware not to recognise as desire.This would be easy, and perhaps it would be fun. But easy has never been something that Neji values: there is no strength to be found in taking something that offers no challenge.

But to hold oneself back from taking something so simply offered -- yes, there is strength in that.

Neji pulls his hand away, and smiles, and adds Uzumaki Naruto to the long, long list of things that he wants but he will not let himself have.

Seal kink? Me? *looks shifty* Actually I have a kink for most kinds of markings -- I don't like heavy tattooing but I LOVE isolated, delicate ones, and all things like Neji's blue lines, and curse seals, and scars. I LOVE SCARS. I have a whopping great scar on my side/back and it's one of my favourite things about my body; I wish I had excuses to wear backless dresses.

Neji and Naruto are FASCINATING. I don't know if I could make them work, honestly and properly, but there are SO MANY issues about power and destiny and family and ambition there to be explored. Mmm. Messy.

You want recs?Did you read [livejournal.com profile] ronsard's OSS from Christmas? Bloody fuck...

And did I tell you how much I love this?

SO SO MUCH. lkajsflaskd I can't stop rereading. It's WONDERFUL!

This pairing came about in a strange way, for me: My e-Twin, [livejournal.com profile] sintari, was like "Oooh, yeah, it's my guilty pleasure," and then linked me to a fic written for her, and a few drabble threads, and it piqued my interest. So, I kept digging, and then started creating, and then Twinny and I started creating, together, and OH. MY. GOD! Before I knew it, it became my pairing of choice...

It may have something to do with the high fic quality and gorgeous lack of fangirl japanese by the people who write it.

So, ...let's see the scar! You can't just tease, like that.

I remember skimming through that one and finding it very well written but not really caring enough about the pairing to go back and read it properly. I SHOULD RECTIFY THIS.

Ahahaha. Scar. Um...it starts under my left arm and stretches maybe 15cm across my back, curving upwards like a quarter of a circle. If that makes sense.

I may post many pictures of me in silly costumes on the internet, but I am not yet quite comfortable with NAKED pictures :D To see it properly I'd have to be wearing, well, a backless dress, and I don't own any.

(Major heart surgery when I was very very wee. My aorta did this:

instead of this:

so half of it had to be removed.)

I am all fixed :) I can never go scuba diving because, um, my lungs might rip, but otherwise I am perfectly healthy!

Besides, I tell everyone I got the scar in a knife fight.

I have done one or two? The LJ voice post system doesn't like me. I suppose I could just do a voice recording and upload it as a .wav file, if people were madly curious. BUT WHAT WOULD I TALK ABOUT? I would probably end up reciting Dylan Thomas poetry or summat like that.

My college firewall hates Skype and I have to pay for internet by the MB, unfortunately. But I'm happy to make a faux-voicepost.

Stupid sucky Australian metered internet. *kicks it*

But, okay! I shall not be a choosy beggar, today! No sirree, Bob!

May I suggest a dramatic reading of Naruto 401?
