Cantarella LJ Community

ms_legerdemain @ 9:48pm: Fanfiction - Thinking of You
Hi, I'm new to this community and I come bearing fic. I am hopelessly addicted to Cantarella, and if anyone likes this, there are a couple of pieces I wrote earlier which can be found using the tags on my fanworks journal :) I usually write Cesare/Chiaro, so this was a bit of a change.

Title: Thinking of You
Author: ms_legerdemain
Word Count: 1347
Beta: butterflygirl_3
Genre: Romance, Angst.
Characters/Pairing: Chiaro/Lucrezia, implied Cesare/Chiaro and one-sided Lucrezia/Cesare.
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Angst, non-explicit sex, incest, implied shounen-ai, het.
Author's Notes: A random idea that occured to me one evening. A slightly different take on the relationship betwen Lucrezia and Chiaro. I hope nobody is going to shoot me for ruining the purity of their love. It doesn't necessarily reflect well on the characters, but I don't think I'm being unreasonable in portraying them the way I do.

Summary: Even when they're together, the memory of a man with eyes dark enough to drown in keeps them apart.

Please comment. I'm begging you. Recent revelations regarding the proportion of people who read and download stuff v the proportion of people who comment has depressed me a lot. So please, if you read, tell me what you think. Even if you hate it.

Fake cut to my fanworks community. If you like what you see, please join or watch, it makes my day :)

pyroh @ 9:22pm: Cantarella Kink Meme!
I tried to remember what community I saw this on recently so that I could copy reference their format, but didn't find it. Oh well. However, I did bookmark the Master List of kinks, in case anyone needs some inspiration.

If this is your first time, here's a brief outline of how it works--

* leave an anonymous comment with a character/pairing (the comm rules say both yaoi and yuri are fine) and a kink. Say what you want! Despite this being a 'kink meme', it doesn't have to be a sexual situation. Keep it at whatever you're comfortable with. If all you want is Cesare and Chiaro chilling out, watching a sunset, feel free to request it.

* fulfill a request by replying anonymously to that comment. If it's a fic, it can be any length. If it's an art, please resize it appropriately, or you can just post a text link directly to the image. If you want to re-post the request elsewhere, and not remain anonymous, that's your decision.

* leave feedback and keep it going! This doesn't work if people only make requests and don't fulfill anything!

* try not to repeat requests >_> I don't mean it to be picky or rude, but if everyone agrees on one kink, this won't get very far XD; This fandom has few fanworks as it is.

* likewise, if you don't agree with someone's kink, do not respond. Flames and bashing will not be tolerated. Fulfill someone else's request, or make your own.

* have fun with this! Although it's in the Renaissance Era, you don't have to stay there. I mean, it's a beautiful era to work with, but if you think Cesare and Caterina Sforza making out on the subway sounds like an awesome idea, request it.

* Tell your friends! This fandom doesn't have enough activity! Advertise and drag in others to participate~! :D

If I'm missing anything else here, please tell me ^^;

sailormac @ 5:25pm: Roleplayers?
A friend and I were wondering one night if we are the only people on the Internet who play Cantarella characters in multi-fandom games. She plays Cesare and I play Chiaro and Sancia at Moulin Noir. Anyone else out there?

liriaen @ 11:02am: [fic] Anno Santo (Chiaro-centric; PG-13)
Title: Anno Santo
Characters: Chiaro, mostly
Word Count: 595
Rating: PG-13
A/N: Written for Pareidolia for yuletide 2008. Here's hoping to a swift release of vol. 11!
Summary: An unhappy liturgy, delving into historical events to come.

( And thus, as the Holy Year waned, Chiaro retreated into a new quality of silence. )

anoyo @ 12:58am: [FIC] Truth, Cesare/Chiaro, R
Title: Truth
For: cerulean_sky
Fandom: Cantarella
Character(s): Cesare/Chiaro? Maybe?
Prompt: Wangst.
Rating: R
Words: 1,325
Notes: Day 12 of my 25 Days of Christmas challenge! This should be historically accurate. Should be. Mostly. Whatevs. Not beta'd, finals have TAKEN OVER. May not actually be wangst?
Table Link: Here.

( Over time, Chiaro had found that he was best suited to manual labor )

liriaen @ 3:58pm: Shameless (German) fic plugging
Dear Cantarella-friends,

at this sad juncture (i.e., why oh why does Higuri-sensei give priority to GC over picking up Cantarella?), and due to the possible closing of fanfic100_de... I'm swallowing my natural inhibition and would like to put up a link here, leading to what are currently 61 out of 100-Cantarella-ficlets-to-be.

Some are longer, some mere drabbles, not necessarily to be read in any particular order. Enjoy, but: please mind the gap (ratings, warnings... and, what's more, spoilers up to volume 10, plus lots of gratuitous history). And... umm... yes, they're in German.

dorkodile @ 10:55pm: Quam terribilis est haec hora

Heaven is marching. Will you heed the call of the Lord of Hell?

What would you think, if you stepped outside and saw birds, frozen, hanging suspended in the sky? How would you feel if you realized that it’s not only birds, but every living things, and time itself, frozen, on July 22nd, 1999? There’s no noise, no sunset, no laughter, no flashing lights. Only the world, silent and frozen in time. You could say it’s like the world has been abandoned, except for the people, more like statues, without a trace of fear, or any awareness of whatever happened and what is to come. From Heaven and Hell, angels and demons gaze upon this abomination... Assiah, Earth, has been, in their eyes, used to test a new dangerous weapon that could mean the end of the standstill between the two powers. In Heaven, the Angel Lord has finally returned after centuries of confinement... the once soft-spoken and wise angel is now bent on revenge against those who sealed him away. In Hell, Lucifer stirs in his slumber, and the land shakes. The Seven Great Satans are meeting in the depths of Shiol. This can only mean one thing... The third great war between Heaven and Hell is about to begin. What side will you choose?

Rules | Applications | Reserves | Taken characters | FAQ | Game and world details

Quam terribilis est haec hora (How frightful is this hour) is a het and slash friendly multifandom game set in the context of a war between Heaven and Hell, with Earth caught in the middle. Due to the importance of the battle between angel and demons in the storyline, it will contain mature themes. While the story is set at the begining of volume 4 of Kaori Yuki's Angel Sanctuary series, knowledge of the canon is not necessary since the protagonists thrown into the war will have to discover the world for themselves. We are looking for active players interested in a wide range of roleplaying experiences, from political intrigue to warfare to every day life in a world gone mad... and especially for players who can keep the drama for the storylines.

Together, we will triump over the self-righteous angels!

dark_gemini99 @ 2:32am: Paraluna: Multifandom, Multidimensional RPG- Always accepting apps!
( Paraluna: A Multifandom, Multidimension RPG )
Lots of options for canon and AU characters available~ :D We'd love to see Cantarella characters around! If this kind of promotion isn't allowed, feel free to let me know and I'll delete it.

iori_sempai @ 7:30pm: Cantarella FST deal.
Well I've been thinking about this for a while, and since I'm really obsessed with Cantarella it was pretty easy!? Don't be expecting amazing character profiles and such for everyone! Its more of a collection of songs I have that remind me of Cantarella, so I'll have more on one person/couple and none for another D:
I might make a formal one later on.

I was sort of in a rush to throw this out here before Volume 10 comes out, hahaha.

It's comprised of two "discs," but its only 12 tracks. The first part concerned the general series (events, different couples and characters) and the second part is all Volpe->Cesare, baby! I found myself with 5 tracks that reminded me of it, so I just decided to make a whole section for em.

I hope you enjoy somehow lol. Download the full FST or each disc individually.

x_clamp @ 4:44pm: need some help
uhm, anybody here know Chinese??? I happened to find the raw of volume 8->10 at killigaris journal but i can't guess what's happening TTTT_TTTT. Any one know what was goinf on through those volume???
I have two guess:
1. Lucrezia was taken back to her family, so chiaro was chasing after to take her back
2. Chiaro was coming back to Cesare..

it's probally the first, though... TTT__TTT ( i am C x C fan!!))

Can anyone give me a summary to stop me from those stupid guessing game... TT_TT

Thanks, anyway ^_^

liriaen @ 2:56pm: [drabble] Divini occhi sereni
title: Divini occhi sereni
fandom: Cantarella/Borgia
characters: Cesare
word count: 100
A/N The madrigal is by Verdelot, roughly a contemporary of Cesare's. Despite this drabble's obvious excess of black gall, I'm wishing you a happy holiday season. :)

( Divini occhi sereni )

theborgiasdevil @ 7:54am: More Borgia....
I was wondering if anyone out there has heard an update on whether Los Borgia will be translated? I figured since this is a Cantarella Comm, I wouldn't be the only one interested in a movie about our dear Cesare.

peach_jello @ 2:53am: three_crossings
A multi-fandom AU RPG

Like pirates? Like airships? Like steampunk? What are your thoughts on yaoi mad science, class stratification, volcanoes, and did we mention mad science?



( All of the above? )

I saw no rules against this in the community info, but am still hesitant. Mods, if you have any problem at all with this, please let me know and I will gladly remove the post. I'm not sure how well the Cantarella canon will lend itself to a steam punk-based game, but I figured it was worth a shot. It is AU, after all, and we would love to see some of Higuri-sama's lovely creations in our game. ^_^

liriaen @ 10:27am: [Drabble] 'Chiaroscuro' - (Cesare/Taddeo/Chiaro; PG-13)

In the octoberissue of Spica. Any hope for Yuu Higuri might pick up Cantarella? :)

Have anyone heard of the current status of Crown and how Cantarella is doing?

mitzrael @ 6:46pm: [20 icons]
I made those for a Cantarella tribute I've been working on ^_^ so i thought I'd share them on LJ too.
Rules as everywhere else. Comment and credit if taken and that's it :)

mnemosyne_troy @ 11:17pm: Fanart - Cesare Borgia - G
First time posting here, so please forgive me if I do any mistake. 

I decided to post a drawing I did of Cesare Borgia from Cantarella, and thought I could share it here. 

Click the picture to go my journal, and from there see the bigger version.



Hope you like it. ^_^

Crossposted around.

mytyl @ 4:32pm: Um first time posting here~
Hello? I made some Cantarella icons and I thought I'd share.

I also made some Chiaro and Cesare ones on earlier posts so um...yeah.

kalikahuntress @ 6:16pm: Cantarella volume 11
I was looking at amazon.co.jp and I saw the cover for Cantarella volume 11 but no info for it. Has this been released yet or does anyone have any info about this? Thanks.

liriaen @ 10:06pm: [FIC] Cinque Stagioni (history/Cantarella; Cesare/Astorre Manfredi; NC-17)
Title: Cinque Stagioni
Author: liriaen
Fandom: history/Cantarella
Characters: Cesare Borgia/Astorre Manfredi, Miquel da Corella (a.k.a Michelotto)
Word Count: ~3550
Rating/warning: NC-17; non-con, D/s yaoi, hint at character death.
Summary: Seasons in the abyss; or, How Cesare Borgia came to keep Faenza a little longer, as witnessed by Miquel da Corella and Astorre Manfredi between 26 June 1501 and 3 June 1502.
A/N: The conclusion to "Crush". Again, more about history than "Cantarella". Dark AU, and as such: no spoilers. But please take a look at the warnings.

(Ché molte volte ti parrà morire: / Un'ora gioia avrai, altra, doglienza; / Ma poi dono argomento di guerire.)

liriaen @ 9:51pm: [FIC] "Crush" (history/Cantarella; Cesare/Astorre Manfredi; R)
Title: Crush
Author: liriaen
Fandom: history/Cantarella
Pairing: Cesare Borgia/Astorre Manfredi
Word Count: ~1950
Rating: R for dub-con, D/s yaoi, light bondage.
Summary: The year is 1501: imagine, if you will, the tired city of Faenza, her tired ruler, and a Renaissance bit of I'm in ur palazzo, fuckin' ur princedom.
A/N: I'm not entirely sure if this allowed; it's more history than "Cantarella" (cf. the time frame), and it's definitely not a nice story. If you squint, you could call it AU. As such: no spoilers. Please mind the warnings. (Story continued in "Cinque Stagioni".)

(E pensa di portar in pacïenza / La pena che per me avrà' a sofrire / Inanzi ch'io ti doni mia sentenza.)

animadri @ 6:38am: FIC: The Agony and the Ecstasy
Title: The Agony and the Ecstasy
Fandom - Characters: "Cantarella" - Cesare/omc, Cesare/Michelangelo, Da Vinci
Author: jezebel_93
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: language, violence, dub-con, spoilers for events after vol. #7
Summary: "The subject tonight is love:" if in doubt, it's best to ask a master. Cesare seeks clarity - and learns that Da Vinci and Michelangelo have different views on the topic.
A/N: Dear, the UST derailed a bit, but I hope to please in matters "unrequited" and "angst". As for Leonardo and Michelangelo: their being gay -though not exactly fond of each other- is pretty much established fact. All else is, of course, conjecture. Wait; there was the small matter of the Cupid. :)

Written for the yaoi_challenge obscure fandom challenge. Feedback is love!

friera @ 6:10pm: Is Cantarella on hiatus+ fanart (kind of)
Hi everyone. I'm new here, and I'm waaay too hooked on Cantarella! I simply love it!
But, is the manga on hiatus in Japan? if that is the case, why?

And I was suppose to draw a fanart, but midway I decided to change his apperance. (it was supposed to be Chiaro) so I'd might say it's very inspired by Cantarella. :)
Anyway, if you like to see it, I'd be glad.
http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i308/Johanne_89/CantarellaalikeLITENmedrammeOPPDATE.jpg
I usually don't draw with notmal pencils, so there are several flaws here and there. Still hope you like it. :)

I appreciate every comment and critique! :D
