Author's Note: I've had writers block for days and decided to confront the muses... it went down a little like this... Moral of the story: I learned my lesson.




Katie: Ok I demand that you get up and work!

Heechul: *gives a look from the couch* You demand?

Katie: Yes I demand! This is my head! You are my muses! Now work!

Heechul: *snorts and changes the channel* Let me know how that works for you.

Katie: Siwon…

Siwon: *looks helpless* Sorry

Katie: Where is Hankyung! *looks around* Anyone seen him?! *spots SHINee lounging on beanbag chairs playing hand held game systems* And you all! You gave me a new idea last night and now you refuse to write it!

Key: *shrugs* We have better things to do.

Katie: I demand you work! *waves hands angrily*

Taemin: *not looking up* My contract says that I only have to work when I feel like it.

Katie: What contract?!

Minho: *silently points to wall where rows of documents are hanging*

Katie: *glares at signed documents* Who the hell let you sign those?! You are my slaves! Work! Now!

Kyuhyun: *walks by with an armload of snacks* Really we need to work on your intimidation skills. They are sorely lacking.

Katie: Everyone had better get to work! Or… Or… Or I will cut the electricity! Let’s see you enjoy your games and television without electricity!

Kibum: You do realize we do know how to do other things. *waves book*

Katie: Shut up you! Or I will put you back in the basement!

Kibum: *offers flat look*

Katie: Where is Leeteuk! He’ll whip you into shape!

Kyuhyun: *settling in front of the computer points to one door down the long hall*

Sungmin: I wouldn’t go there if I were you though.

Katie: *crosses arms* Why not?

Sungmin: Leeteuk is uh… excited that Kangin is out of the military. They are celebrating.

Kyuhyun: Loudly.

Shindong: And actively…

Katie: *blushes* Fine! Someone around her has to be nicer then you jerks. *looks at the shadowed corner where the new muses lurk* I’m going to go find Dongwoo! He will play with me!

Shindong: *picking up controller for video game* They are practicing for their comeback. Good luck with that.

Katie: Well then SNSD would love the chance to play.

Donghae: *grabbing another controller* They are on vacation. Something tropical I think.

Jaejoong: *walks by towards the kitchen* And SS501 are plotting their reunion. Don’t ask. We don’t.

Yunho: *following him* They are also trying to puzzle out why YoungSaeng and JungMin have fangs.

Katie: *looks marginally guilty* Well if they would just play with me there wouldn’t be a problem. *looks hopeful*

Yunho: No. Jae has promised me dinner. I love Changmin to death but he can’t cook for anything. *disappears into the kitchen*

Katie: *sinks down onto plush arm chair* What am I supposed to do?

Heechul: *throws legs over Siwon and flips through channels some more* There is always the DO NOT ENTER closet.

Eunhyuk: *curious* We have a do not enter closet?

Heechul: Yep 5th door on the left. She pushes it back every year but it isn’t going to go away.

Eunhyuk: *exchanges a grin with Donghae and Shindong then jumps up and runs*

Katie: NO!! You can’t! *jumps up and races after them*

Eunhyuk: *reaches the closet and yanks open the door, peers inside* Well that is boring.

Donghae: *looking over his shoulder* It’s just darkness.

Shindong: *contemplating* I wonder if we can turn this into a man cave.

Katie: No close the door!!

Voice from within: Too late.

Katie: *stops in the middle of the middle of the hallway* Uh oh.

VFW: Uh oh is right Aibou. You didn’t think you could lock us away and forget about us did you? *shadows pour out of the closet and push the trio to the other side of the hall and pin them there. From the dark doorway a young woman steps out. She looks remarkably like the one already standing in the hall with a panicked look on her face, but she is thinner and sporting remarkably dark figures. Her violet eyes look over the three Super Junior members as she reaches behind her and pulls her long black hair tipped in vibrant purple up into a high tail.* They are quite nice aren’t they?

Katie: U-uh… Hi… Kat…

Eunhyuk: *confused* Kat? But your online friends call you Kat and your college friends.

Kat: *grins* Names are so important aren’t they Aibou?

Katie: *glares at her. Absently to Eunhyuk* My parents have always called me Katie. I went by my full name in college but it was too much of a mouthful for people so they called me Kat. I’ve been going by it ever since. It has nothing to do with her.

Kat: Are you certain? She always said that you were becoming me. That is why she became so dissatisfied in your friendship.

Katie: *dangerously* Don’t you dare bring her into it. You are from my past and no longer necessary. That is why you were all in the closet. No other reason.

Kat: Really?

Katie: *firmly* Really.

Eunhyuk: Hate to interrupt but would someone like to tell me who the hell she is?

Katie: *absently* My yami.

Shindong: Your what?

Donghae: Wait are we talking like Yu-Gi-Oh Yami?

Kat: *arrogantly* I am much better than that bastard.

Katie: That was like six years ago! Let it go!

Kat: Never! I will destroy him!

Katie: Well that will be hard since the mistress within whom he lives cut all ties with us.
*a man in a super hero uniform with a large MM on his chest and a billowing red cape steps out of the closet*

MM: Really? I’m safe!

Katie: *groans* Not Margin Man too.

Kat: Yes him and if you ever lock me up with him again I will kill you.

Another voice from within: If you don’t move I will use my last Caster shell to fry your ass.

MM: *yelps and scrambles sideways*

*Gene Starwind (Outlaw Star) steps out*

Gene: About damn time.

Katie: *eye wide backs up* Oh no.

Gene: *grins at her* Hey darling. It’s been awhile. Do we still have a thing?

Katie: *small voice* Maybe?

*Wolfwood (Trigun) steps out carrying his Punisher*

Wolfwood: After Kat went through all the trouble of hooking you up you sure as hell better be together. *slings an arm over Kat’s shoulder*

*other characters begin to pour out of the closet all from various anime titles*

Katie: Oh no.

Eunhyuk: *grinning and still pinned to a wall by shadows* Awesome.

*there is a mass of chattering as more characters gather and begin talking all at once*

Heechul: *yells from the living room* Shut the fuck up or I will channel my vampire and kill you all! I’m trying to watch a music video!

Gene: *peers down the hall at the TV* Oh I see some hot chicks. I’ll be back.

Katie: No! Closet!

Kat: *grins and waves a hand dispersing the shadows* Not gonna happen. *waves hand again and the closet disappears* Good luck finding it now.

Katie: I will find your Soul Room and I will stuff you in it!

Kat: Good luck with that too.

Katie: *turns on the trio* This is all your fault. I hold you all personally responsible!

Donghae: *grinning* Is that Son Gohan?! I am totally going to get him to teach me to fly like he did his girlfriend! *runs off*

Katie: *watches as the old and new mingle, sinks to the ground, moans* No no no no no no no no no no.

Alphonse (Full Metal Alchemist): *crouches beside her* Sorry Katie. It actually wasn’t all that bad in the closet, but you know Kat. She can’t help but have a little fun.

Katie: *groans* She and Heechul are going to kill each other.

Al: *pats on the shoulder* I’m sorry.

Kat: *from the other room* Excuse me!?! Like hell you will!!

Katie: *groans again* I’m going to crawl into my Soul Room and go to sleep… forever.

Al: It can’t be that bad.

Katie: *offers him a look*

*there is a loud crash from the main room and both of them wince*

Al: Well I can always transmute jail cells for you.

Katie: *looks to shadowy corner where new muses wait* I think I might have some new friends to perform crowd control if we need it. In the mean time, I’m just going to lie here and wonder what I have done to deserve this. *flops back, closes eyes, and blocks out the chaos of screaming voices.*

One of my good friends is a write and she doesn't get near enough credit for the wonderful things she has written. So I'm here to recommend a few of her fics that I really enjoy. I hope you will give them a bit of a chance and leave her a comment letting her know what you think.

Personal Assistant
Complete 10/10
Rating: NC-17
First an auto accident, then a lawsuit. HanGeng keeps thinking things can't get much worse... right?

This is one of my favorite fics of hers. I have a soft spot for HanChul anyway, and Heechul is all sorts of feisty here. There are a couple of very steamy smut scenes that I just love. A good read and lucky that you all can read it once it is done instead of while it is being posted!

Personal Assistant Chapter One


Invictus
In Progress 9/10
Rating: NC -17
As SHINee expands into Japan and other parts of Asia, TaeMin realizes through some first-hand experience that not all the rumors are just rumors. He comes to the conclusion that the best way to counteract bad memories is with good ones.

I love this fic despite it's dark undertones. Unforgettably it wouldn't take much of a stretch for this fiction to be a true story. It talks about some of the darker sides to the industry and how they might be dealt with. It is a truly moving story that made me cry on more than one occasion. This is also one where I guest wrote about a chapter and a half for her, so if you want to see something I have written recently you can hop over there. Please be certain to heed the warnings.

Invictus - Prologue


She has many more that I love, and several of my favorites are haven't been posted for public consumption yet. A lot of great stuff is on it's way! You can browse through her stuff on her masterlist and find some for yourself.

I was thinking of starting to do some rec posts since I love shareing great stuff both old and new that I have read. If that is something that you would find enjoyable, let me know and I'll see about doing them semi-regualary.

I'm working on a few things for you all, so with any luck they will be done in the near future and ready for you all to read!

AN: I got a little bit bored so I started rolling dice to decide some prompts. This is what I was given. Almost all of them are in random universe that I just made up, some of which were very intriging to me. The song that I rolled that helped inspire each one is linked in the title for your listening while reading pleasure. I hope you enjoy these and let me know what you think!


( Ficlets )

I realized that I have several people trying out my stories that may not know all of the characters, so I have decided to organize a picture character guide. The characters are listed below by group.

( Beware image heavy! )

( Episode One )



AN: Well needless to say this was inspired by Big Bang's Fantastic Baby MV. It really was something that I watched and said... "dang that looks like it is almost straight from my Flesh, Fur, and Fang universe!" I mean really did anyone else see Seungri in that and thing Vampire Master? I certainly did. Anyway I'm certain you noticed that this says Episode one. I will be doing little snippets on these characters every now and again when inspiration strikes. I don't promise to write another thing using them (although I'm fairly certain it will happen) but even if I do I have no idea when it will be. I hope you enjoyed this!

Ok... normally I'm a fairly level headed person that isn't prone to ranting (besides the occasional rant to my friends in rl, sorry guys) but enough is enough. I can't keep silent and while I could write this all down in a journal, where is the fun in that.

So firstly, for your viewing pleasure, I have THE WORK RANT. (For those of you that may not know, I work in a Middle School as a long term sub. Basically I am the teacher for two months while this teacher is out with a bad back and I get paid and treated like crap to do the teachers job.)

( Work Rant )

And now for my other rant of the night... what I am calling my KPOP RANT.

( The Kpop Rant )

I realized, this morning after talking with someone, that I don't really have a welcome or introduction post where people can comment and ask to friend me or just talk to me in general. So I am now creating one... Kind of... lol.

AN: This was one of the drabble request and the muses just fell in a small bit of love with it. The next major arc in this universe will feature the pair of them quite a bit I'm thinking. I hope everyone enjoyed this!
