^ Yeah I enjoy the fact its voluntary... I think it's really great that Yuuyami and Loser are offering this to people who really want the help and already from the people saying "i'm in" it seems like a successful!

You can still have refined writing without messing too much with the writer's personal style so it should be fine.

But anyone who is scared off (like me) come to the back of the class and help me plan evil things :twisted:

And Yuuyami/Loser, you guys are like the Soup Nazi of H!P fanfic world... now every time I read something I keep checking on the characterization and detail yada yada yada of it :P

Jafeijai! This one's for you! xDDDD Sorry for being late, we were caught up in some... things... xDDD

[23:02] MoMo: well reading Jafeijai, it doesn't look too bad

[23:02] MoMo: it looks pretty cute and decent

[23:02] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Mm xD

[23:02] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: It's still just a prologue, but it's got potential xD

[23:03] MoMo: yea, I'll say~

[23:03] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: The only thing I'd recommend is to watch out for long paragraphs

[23:03] MoMo: yeah i see that, spread it out more.

[23:03] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Line breaks are your friends xD

[23:03] MoMo: but other than that it's pretty cute

[23:03] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Indeed xD

[23:03] MoMo: okay jafeijai is done lmao!

[23:04] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: LOL xD

Okay here we go, for CKD!!

-------------------------------------------------------------

MoMo says:
okay, i just read CKD's..

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
All I see is dialogue xD

MoMo says:
1 - need a lot more detailed!
2 - its robotic in a way, not really feeling the hostility between Maki and Miki
3 - mmm the Miki seems out of her personality, seems a lot more sensitive...Usually, Miki is this badass who doesn't gives a shit about anyone but herself..so a little out of character...

MoMo says:
wow i had a lot of grammar errors in there >_>

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
xDDDD

MoMo says:
maybe I shouldn't eat while I type lmao

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Of course you shouldn't xD

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
But hey, burning off finger calories while eating! 

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Through typing

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
xD

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Anywho xD

MoMo says:
lmao at the cost of my grammar XD

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Yes xDDD

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Don't do that when you write the next chapter of your fic, honey xD

MoMo says:
lmao XD

MoMo says:
anyway

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
The dialogue is uncreative

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
"Said" and "Asked" is all I see

MoMo says:
yeah, there's no...real setting

MoMo says:
so I can't visualize what's really happening

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
No narrowing of the eyes or glare to show off that hostility o_o

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
None at all D:

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
I see the words, but I need pictures

MoMo says:
and things seem to happen abruptly

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
so he needs to describe everything

MoMo says:
yeah

MoMo says:
description is really important here

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
"Don't interrupt me!" Miki's voice raised to anger as she fixed her patented death-glare upon Maki. "You are not going to hurt Yossie, you understand?"

MoMo says:
grammar check

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
It would have helped if the entire dialogue was like that too

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Not just "words words words."

MoMo says:
yeah

MoMo says:
I also kind of have an issue with the grammar, it ruins the flow

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
It needs to be "words words words," she glared at the other with hatred. or something

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Mmhmm

MoMo says:
"If anybody's hurt her, it's you," Maki said.

MoMo says:
it'd be better and it'd make more sense if it said "If anybody is going to hurt her, it'd be you"

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
And instead of "Maki said," it should really show her hostility

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
So she should be saying that with a low growl or something

MoMo says:
or a glare, some sort of action to show her hostility, yeah i agree

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Mmhmm

MoMo says:
okay, yuuchan what's the final verdict on this?

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
My verdict is basically

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
CKD-kun, you really need to give us a motion picture with this.

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
You gave us a script

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
But there's no picture to accompany it

MoMo says:
yuppers, I totally agree, I just gotta add, Just run through a grammar check before posting a new chapter so that's our advice

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Before you post this, I have another lame pun to make! D<

MoMo says:
more detail, grammar check, create us a motion picture and you should be fine

MoMo says:
>_>

MoMo says:
what lame pun...

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
-Ooki na Ai de Motenashite plays in the background-

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
-does the dance- OH YEAH OH YEAH

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Okay, I'm done xD

MoMo says:
...........-bricks-

MoMo says:
<_<

MoMo says:
god you are so......LAME!

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
(    ¯v¯)

MoMo says:
......-bricks- don't be proud of it >_>

Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );; says:
Q( ¯v¯    Q) Bring it.

MoMo says:
>_>...I'm posting...

Thanks for the review of mine guys.When I reread it, I found stuff that even I didn't like.It's much better looking now in my opinion.

And thanks for the fanservice.That made my day.

PS I'm a boy just so you know.

ICHIGO-CHI~YAAAAAAAAAN~! (Strawb3rryKream that is o-o... )

We did some of your fluff xD Since my Loser-chan doesn't read pervy stuff.

Oh and Amber-san? Can you send that story over the PM to me? It's only going to be me reviewing since my Loser-chan doesn't read the super pervy stuff either xDDDD.






Anywho~ Onto le review~!

I was totally bored so I color coded this one xDDD




Yuuchan is lovely purple
And her Loser-chan is badass green


[21:34] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Review SUTAATO o-o

[21:34] MoMo: better days, it's good

[21:35] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: xD The only thing that bothers me is while she's following the correct story format, it's not exactly ideal for a forum xD

[21:35] MoMo: I don't have much of a thing against it, ichigo-chan did pretty good, describing things, feelings, painting a picture

[21:35] MoMo: its just...


[21:35] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: xD?

[21:35] MoMo: extremely short

[21:35] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Yeah

[21:35] MoMo: like a sudden thought in your head that passes by and disappears

[21:36] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: She's potentially a great writer, she just needs to write more, haha xDD

[21:36] MoMo: that's all really

[21:36] MoMo: I bet if anything, if she really wanted to, she could make one great epic story


[21:36] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Mmhmm, she's got the capabilities for it

[21:37] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: You should read that other link I sent you xD

[21:37] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: It's more in tuned to what she writes most of the time

[21:37] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Reassurance


[21:40] MoMo: reassurance?

[21:40] MoMo: I skimmed it

[21:40] MoMo: it was really cute


[21:40] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: xDDD

[21:40] MoMo: kamei/tanaka lurve~

[21:40] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: It is

[21:40] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: <3333

[21:41] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Now in regards to structure... xDDD...


[21:41] MoMo: I rarely see some eri/reina loving now a days =T

[21:41] MoMo: so props to her


[21:41] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Yosh xD

[21:41] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: You know what's also rare?


[21:41] MoMo: goto/reina?

[21:42] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Nope

[21:42] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: You as a seme ;x


[21:42] MoMo: ......................................

[21:42] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: xD Anywho~

[21:42] MoMo: -punches your face- D<

[21:42] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: @-@

[21:42] MoMo: asshat

[21:42] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Ah lav yew ~ <3333

[21:43] MoMo: -bricks yooo- >_>

[21:43] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: -bloodspurt- But yes, what bothered me was that she had some basic sentences like "She was sweating" xDDD

[21:43] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: It got better as the story went through though.


[21:43] MoMo: yeah, they're really short sentences

[21:43] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: xDD And she's telling, not showing

[21:44] MoMo: a little more use on these babies --> ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[21:44] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: If she shows instead of tell, then I feel like the story could be longer too xD

[21:44] MoMo: yea

[21:44] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: or mix both, I dunno xD

[21:44] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: It's good to see something short and simple, just not all the time :3


[21:44] MoMo: but other than that her stories are just pretty gosh darn cute

[21:44] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: xD You haven't read her more perverted ones

[21:45] MoMo: and i won't lol

[21:45] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Roffle xD

[21:45] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: I have read them so I'll just state my verdict here and now xDDD

[21:45] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Ichigo-chaaaan?

[21:45] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: your

[21:45] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: stories

[21:45] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: are

[21:45] MoMo: LMAO

[21:46] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Make them more ongoing~

[21:46] MoMo: lol

[21:46] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Do whatever it takes to make it longer~ details, more sentences, more character thoughts, anything~

[21:46] MoMo: xD

[21:46] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: It makes me D: when I see that an entire one-shot can fit within my monitor xDDDD

[21:47] MoMo: XDXDXD LMAO

[21:47] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: So yes, you've got a LOT of potential, you just need to use it moar, that's all :3

[21:48] Lovely Yuuchan desu yo~ (  ¯ロ¯    );;: Anything from you, my Loser-chan? <33

[21:48] MoMo: lol, props to ya'

[21:48] MoMo: you post yuu-chan >_>

Thanks, you guys! So I need to work on length and showing, not telling. I think I can manage that! Oi, I feel like I'm in 9th grade English class again. :lol:
